SUMMARY:Spiritual Forum: Depression as Awakening
DESCRIPTION:Depression as Awakening\nDepression is very common in our 
 modern age, in large part because many have lost awareness of the spir
 itual basis of their existence. One is susceptible to depression when 
 suffering from spiritual dysfunctionalities, such as: no strong basic 
 values; no purpose in life; no recognition of the Sacred Within; or ov
 er-bearing attachments to things antithetical to one's soul. The good 
 news is that disciplined development of a spiritual life will inexorab
 ly release the shackles of most depression. In this presentation, Chri
 s Cole will discuss the spiritual aspects of depression and provide a 
 clear path to freedom. Chris will credibly ground the presentation by 
 describing his own struggles with mental illness.\nPresenter Biography
 .\nChris Cole hosts the Waking Up Bipolar podcast, focused on the inte
 rsection of bipolar disorder and spiritual awakening. He is the author
  of The Body of Chris: A Memoir of Obsession, Addiction, and Madness, 
 inspired by his own journey of spiritual unfolding and mental health c
 hallenges. Over the past few years, he has talked about spirituality a
 nd mental illness at a number of local venues. He offers life coaching
  for any number of mental health conditions, specializing in bipolar d
 isorder and spiritual emergence. His experience with addiction, disord
 ered eating, body dysmorphia, psychosis, and spiritual emergency allow
 s him to credibly relate to a wide range of clients. He utilizes a hol
 istic approach to mental health which views wellness in physical, ment
 al, emotional, social, and spiritual domains. For more information, vi
