○ he can incorporate meditation into his everyday life.
○ he can find ways to spend time alone due to his sadness.
○ he can skip exercise so he can get more sleep during the day.
○ he can remain patient and allow himself to go through the process.

Explanation:

To determine a healthy coping strategy for depression, we analyze each option:

• "Incorporate meditation" is a recognized healthy strategy as meditation reduces stress and improves mental well - being.
• "Spend time alone due to sadness" can isolate a person and worsen depression, so it's not healthy.
• "Skip exercise for more sleep" is unhealthy because exercise is beneficial for mental health, and excessive daytime sleep can disrupt the sleep cycle.
• "Remain patient and go through the process" is not an active coping strategy; it lacks proactive steps to manage depression.

Answer:

A. He can incorporate meditation into his everyday life.
