Episode Description
October is Depression Awareness Month. The World Health Organization named depression the number 1 cause of ill health and disability worldwide with more than 300 million people affected. Research shows that depression raises the risk of: Alzheimer’s and other dementias, diabetes, stroke, hypertension, sleep disorders, infection, substance abuse, suicide, and early death from those with heart disease. Based on twenty years of research, there is now a proven, easy to use program that brings relief to chronic sufferers of depression. Instead of working to find the roots of one’s distress, this approach helps one create a new relationship to depression and improve the symptoms and quality of life by changing how one relates to painful thoughts and feelings. This mindfulness-based cognitive therapy approach includes easy breath exercises, meditations, and visualizations to release painful thoughts. Join us Thursday to learn how to harness the power of mindfulness to alleviate depression.
