Do you know someone who suffers from depression?

I enjoyed Dr. Helen's interview with Dr. Steve Ilardi about his new book: The Depression Cure: The 6-Step Program to Beat Depression without Drugs. The fifteen minute interview seemed pretty good, but I haven't read the book.

To beat depression Dr. Steve Ilardi says we need to:

1) Abundent physical activity
2) Better diet, more Omega three fats
3) More sunglight exposure
4) More sleep, like 8 to 9 hours a night
5) Social connectiveness
6) Avoid rumination by having more engaging activity

If you know someone who struggles with depression, check out the interview with Dr. Steve Ilardi.
