Ask Osho!

What attitude should I take when experiencing anxiety and depression after feelings of peace and opening?

Synthesized from Source practice

"Treat your anxiety and depression as natural swings of opposites; remain the witnessing awareness, for both highs and lows are passing moods, not your essence."

See your ups and downs like weather; watch them come and go without calling them “me,” and they will trouble you less.
Why this matters practically
- Prevents panic about mood swings and reduces clinging or aversion.
- Builds steady equanimity and conserves energy.
- Offers a clear meditation attitude: be the witness in joy and sadness.
