Ashley Judd credits yoga for helping her conquer depression.
The KISS THE GIRLS actress was diagnosed bipolar a decade ago and found her interest in yoga and all that comes with it was more helpful to her than pills she was prescribed.
She says, "My mat is a safe place. I'll go into Child's pose or I'll simply sit on it and cry. It's my rock.
"I haven't been depressed in a while, but it's something I know how to look for in my life. Yoga has made a big difference there... because when I feel that slippery slope, instead of just monitoring it and being fearful, now I give thanks for my struggles.
"I try to remember that true happiness is not dependant on circumstances and conditions.
"That said, there might be a time in my life when medication is appropriate for me again. There are periods when your brain chemistry is off-kilter enough that it doesn't matter what you do until you get that synaptic s**t worked out."
