Excellent drawing by Andre Jordan from his blog that is sort of about depression, A Beautiful Revolution. Check it out! It's funny!In this episode I talk about personality and the loss of the sense
of self many of us experience when we are depressed. I reference John Bett's Jung Podcast, particularly Episode 3, which gives a great theory about the way depression helps us improve our lives. Oh

That is some puddle of drool!Once again, delays and more delays. This time, it was NOT my fault, well except maybe for not buying a new computer until it totally blew up. Now I'm kicking myself for
not getting the DSL set up in my apartment weeks ago, when my housemate initially announced she was moving out. Duh.In the podcast I mention the zine Caboose by Liz Mason. The issue I'm talking about

That is some puddle of drool!Once again, delays and more delays. This time, it was NOT my fault, well except maybe for not buying a new computer until it totally blew up. Now I'm kicking myself for
not getting the DSL set up in my apartment weeks ago, when my housemate initially announced she was moving out. Duh.In the podcast I mention the zine Caboose by Liz Mason. The issue I'm talking about
is issue #6. Get it here at Loop Distro. It's a DOLLAR! You can spare that, can't you? (Scroll down a little bit to find Caboose, Issue 6).Also, I mentioned Susan Kleiner's book The Good Mood Diet. I
think there is some sound advice in it, as pertains to how eating influences your mental health. It's not very vegan but I got a few good things from it, and if you're an egg and fish eater, you'll
really do well on it. Give it a try. (Costs more than a dollar.)The song clip you don't recognize is "Sleeping In" by The Postal Service.

It's back--your favorite show about being bummed out!I have a whole process I have to go through before I podcast, it's funny. I have to brush my teeth, have a glass of water, put on some comfortable
clothes, and get all situated. I clear my throat a thousand times, and go "memememememeeee" and do a couple test recordings and stuff. It is pretty silly but I have to prepare myself. Also, my

It's back--your favorite show about being bummed out!I have a whole process I have to go through before I podcast, it's funny. I have to brush my teeth, have a glass of water, put on some comfortable
clothes, and get all situated. I clear my throat a thousand times, and go "memememememeeee" and do a couple test recordings and stuff. It is pretty silly but I have to prepare myself. Also, my
housemate needs to be out and about, because I can't do it if someone else can hear me. Weird, huh?This episode is all about the flipside of Isolation, which is Saying Yes to risks. Far from being an
expert on this, I'm experimenting with the process and hope that you will, too, whenever you are ready.The Good Feeling Tip of the Week is Guided Meditation. Belleruth Naparstek's wonderful CDs can
be found at HealthJourneys.com. Another cd that I love is Susie Mantell's Your Present: A Half Hour of Peace. At first I thought it was really silly, because she talks to you like you're a
child...but actually, I started to get into it, and it became my favorite after a while because it focuses on magic and feeling warm and fuzzy inside. Another well-liked cd is Andrew Weil's
Meditation for Optimum Health. Poke around on the internet to find more guided meditation resources, and have fun.Clip is from the movie Harold and Maude. A classic, a favorite, and a wonderful guide
for learning how to live.

Did you think I'd gone away for good? Nope--just very engaged in life at the moment. I've added some new elements to the show, and I'd like to add more, if my listeners care to assist! What topics
would you like me to cover? What songs would you like me to include? I would like to review books and resources too, but it takes a lot of time. You can help, if you've read or found any other
resources that might be of interest, by writing a review for the show. Email me your ideas and I'll be glad to incorporate them into a future podcast.Tip of the week: Omega 3 fatty acids are really
good for your beleaguered brain. Here are my two recommendations if you're looking for a high-quality supplement: Nordic Naturals is a great line of fish oils, and Cosmo's Vegan Shoppe has a lovely
selection of vegan/vegetarian oils, and, whether you're vegan or not, flax oil is a component in some of the incredibly amazing salad dressings in How it All Vegan and it's an excellent way to
incorporate them seamlessly into your diet, if you're not big on taking a bunch of pills.Oh yeah--there is a sound glitch in the show. I don't know what caused it but I fixed it by taking out one of
the channels. Audacity (my recording program) is fast, easy and free, but apparently has a bug. Bzz bzz.I wish I had more awesome links for you! Help me out here people!Smashing song credit: "Numb"
