Imagery (Visualization)

If you're mildly depressed imagery or visualization is very useful. Doing an imagery exercise called the trapeze of hope may help brighten your outlook.

This is how: Imagine that you are a trapeze artist standing high in the air on a platform. Now see yourself swinging from the left on a trapeze bar. From the right, you see another trapeze bar swinging toward you. Keep swinging and building up your momentum. When you're ready, let go of the old bar, and reach out and catch the new one. See yourself landing safely on the other platform. Grab a golden rope and lower yourself to the ground. Tie the golden rope around yourself and someone you love. Now see both of you standing in a golden light.

Do this exercise
