banish your blues

"according to the world health organization, by the year 2020 depression will be the second biggest world killer."

this is a sobering thought: that after the heart disease and diabetes caused by the growing level of obesity, untreated depression will also take an enormous toll.

what's fascinating is that yoga is proving useful for both disorders! i was deeply interested in this article on a new book about using yoga in conjunction with standard therapies to treat serious depression.

readers with long memories may recall i've touched on this subject before. (and here's a link to the proposed theory on how yoga works to help depression).
