Wellness and environmental awareness
Counselor Magazine
John Newport, Ph.D. writes: For close to 10 years, I have been blessed by living in the heart of the beautiful Sonoran Desert just outside of Tucson. Almost every morning, my wife and I start the day with a vigorous hike in nearby Catalina State Park — truly one of the wonders of the world. Living in this pristine environment has made me particularly sensitive to the wonders of nature, together with the need to preserve this precious heritage for future generations.

How important is forgiveness?

PsychCentral

How to spot teen depression: Parents still see challenges in recognizing illness
Today
When it comes to recognizing depression in teens, it's a tale of two realities for families, a recent poll has found. Almost all parents, 90%, said they were either very confident or somewhat confident they'd know if their child was depressed. However, two-thirds also admitted there were real challenges in recognizing the mental illness, including having a hard time telling whether a teen was experiencing normal mood swings or depression.

Forbes
Though yoga wasn't exactly developed to treat depression and anxiety, research has shown that, for some people, it does seem to be fairly good at it. A new study from researchers at the Boston University School of Medicine, New York Medical College, and Harvard and Columbia Universities, finds that people who are assigned to take high or low "doses" of yoga that includes breathing exercises have improved mental health at the end of three months.
