Welcome to the Mental Wealth Pod where we will be exploring alternative healing methods for depression, anxiety, ADHD and and other mental health issues.
Statistics show that up to 9.5% of the adult population will be affected by depression and/or anxiety in a given year and that most of us will experience some form of depression at least...(more) once within our lifetime. As a result – we are bombarded daily with commercials from giant pharmaceutical corporations encouraging us to take their drugs to cure our ills. Drugs that can make us dependent, drugs that can give us side-effects that require different drugs to combat them, drugs that can mask an underlying psycho-spiritual crisis, drugs that fill their pockets with cash. For some these drugs may be necessary or even life saving but for many more drugs are not the solution.
This pod has been created to act as a safe haven for for those wishing to seek and share knowledge about holistic alternatives for depression, ADHD, anxiety and other mental health related issues. The information here is not meant to replace any existing treatments but rather to educate about and advocate for the wide variety of of alternate treatment choices available including; diet, supplementation, new forms of talk therapy, sound and color therapies, yoga, body work, breath work and beyond.
If you or someone you know has had a successful experience (or not!) with any of the above or if you are a facilitator of alternative therapy – I encourage you to share your insights and experiences here.
