A Three-step Program For Overcoming Depression Through Western Science And Eastern Wisdom
The trend in depression reveal that not only is depression on the rise, but it is occurring at an earlier age. Something about our modern way of life is making us sick. The antidepressants of old caused such painful and disabling side effects that the new sophisticated medications featuring fewer side effects seem to present an effortless solution to overcoming depression. Although depression requires physical intervention to correct the brain chemistry imbalance, author Henry Emmons believes that this physical intervention can be effectively achieved without medication. Many physicians and psychologists rely on medication as the first response to treating depression but medications are certainly not the only way to treat depression nor are they always the best way to provide the necessary physical intervention. Dr Emmons believes that it is crucial to treat depression with a diet, exercise and lifestyle plan that helps to rebalance brain chemistry.
Dr Henry Emmons uses his 18 years of experience as a psychiatrist and psychotherapist to reinvent the medical community's inadequate response to depression. He introduces a multi-pronged approach to leaving behind depression and living a joyful life - one that integrates western brain biochemistry, ayurvedic medicine, buddhist psychology and his onw "joyful heart" techniques.
