Depression & Low Mood
A Whole-Body Imbalance Affecting Mood, Energy, and Daily Function
Depression is more than a mental or emotional struggle — it often reflects a deeper imbalance across multiple body systems. Factors such as nervous system regulation, sleep quality, inflammation, metabolism, hormones, gut health, and nutrition all play a significant role in mood and energy. When these systems are disrupted, it can affect how you feel, think, and engage with life. Our goal is to identify root causes and support true, lasting recovery through a comprehensive, whole-person approach.
What It May Feel Like
Depression can show up differently for each person, but common experiences include:
- Persistent sadness, heaviness, or emptiness
- Low energy, fatigue, or mental fog
- Irritability, anxiety, or emotional numbness
- Loss of motivation or interest in activities you once enjoyed
- Sleep disruption (difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or oversleeping)
- Withdrawal from social interaction or daily responsibilities
Why It Happens
Low mood often develops from a combination of biological, psychological, and lifestyle factors, such as:
Nervous system dysregulation and chronic stress
Poor or irregular sleep patterns
Hormonal imbalances
Inflammation and metabolic issues
Gut health disturbances
Nutritional deficiencies
Life transitions, trauma, or prolonged emotional strain
Poor or irregular sleep patterns
