Buddhist Practices for Overcoming Depression

A gentle, profound, and accessible path to transforming depression at its roots.

Drawing on early Buddhist psychology, the teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh, and contemporary self-compassion research, Tim Desmond shows how depression grows from patterns of self-criticism, shame, and learned helplessness, as well as how these patterns can be transformed with clarity and tenderness.

Each short chapter offers a concrete practice, from recognizing the energy of difficult emotions in the body to cultivating the small joys and connections that strengthen resilience. Interwoven with teachings on loving-awareness, impermanence, and nurturing wholesome mental formations, the book supports a shift in how listeners hold themselves and their experience.

For anyone seeking depression recovery through authentic Buddhist practice—not just Buddhist-flavored therapy—this is a rare resource of hope.
