83. How to Rise Up From Depression - 6 Therapies that You Might Not Know

Depression, or what is termed medically as major depressive disorder (MDD), is so incredibly multi-faceted that there isn't just one path to healing for everyone who has it.  And yes, you can heal from depression.  There is a small genetic role ~ about 1/3rd of it in some twin studies, but the other 2/3rds is largely environmental, situational, biological, generational, nutritional, spiritual, emotional, metabolic, immune, and so much more.   I talk a little about my experience healing from depression, as a physician, and what it all meant for me.   And then I discuss some of the lesser known therapies (outside of the standard of care of anti-depressants and therapy) that have been studied for major depressive disorder, including acupuncture, hypnosis, aromatherapy, light therapy, saffron, and st. john's wort.
