Health and fun, the fundamental building blocks for a satisfying life.
There is no magic bullet for dealing with depression and anxiety but by adopting some lifestyle changes and treating ourselves with compassion we can bring the fun back and lead a fulfilling and content life...just ask Eileen..
Lyon gives us the template to maximise our enjoyment and provides the tools to superimpose our nature and interests on to this master plan.
Her practical suggestions and pragmatic day-to-day approach in dealing with depression/anxiety make this a welcome change from the taboo thinking of the past
Do you find it easier to go to sleep in front of the TV than tossing and turning in bed? Then stay on the sofa
Can\'t handle the thought of going to bed at the same time every night, then don\'t.
As well as demolishing a few myths, Lyon offers some simple suggestions to disperse the gloom - from acknowledging the problem and the help available to recognising the vital role nutrition plays and the importance of finding our own distractions.
Author Eileen Lyon has mined her experiences with depression and anxiety to produce an eminently readable book that marries personal insight with humour.
Whether you seek solitary enjoyment or the more communal variety, our minds invariably dictate the outcome.
But often a lack of the first cruels the second.
