Welcome back to The Mental Blueprint Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Bryant explores two powerful techniques for managing depression: mindfulness and meditation. These simple yet highly effective tools help calm the mind, reduce anxiety, and improve emotional well-being.
Mindfulness involves focusing on the present moment without judgment. Dr. Bryant guides you through a quick mindfulness exercise to help you ground yourself, detach from negative thoughts, and regain a sense of calm.
Meditation, a more advanced form of mindfulness, significantly increases serotonin levels, reduces anxiety, and improves mood. Dr. Bryant explains how just 10 minutes of meditation can have a profound impact on your emotional state.
Both practices are easy to incorporate into your daily routine and can be powerful tools for managing depression. Whether you're dealing with overwhelming emotions or simply need a moment of peace, mindfulness and meditation can help you find balance and improve your mental health.
In the next episode, we’ll discuss the importance of building a supportive network as part of your healing journey.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
