I enjoyed this book because it took a healthy, holistic self-care approach to depression. Most of the books I have read about depression and mental illness devote 30% of their pages, if not more, to promoting the benefits of pharmaceutical drugs. As Dr. Blair writes though, drugs suppress the symptoms. The symptoms are not the disease. Drugs don't help anyone get well, they help one forget about the fact that there is an underlying illness. I love that this book feels like a treatment plan that Dr. Masters had honed successfully with patients first, many of them telling him "you need to write a book and share this with millions". The material has good flow and feels full of integrity.  Five stars well earned!
