July Message:
Last month we talked about getting into action before we
have the feeling that we want to do something. This month
we discuss how we often toy with negative thought and how
this playing with the negativity can leads us deeper into
the depression and away from positive action. It is often
the practice of giving into the
negativity that keeps us in the depression...we must stop
the first negative thought.
The article is titled:
Negativity is not a toy you can play with.

I would also like to extend my congratulations to a Wave
Rider, who after reading through the book less than one
year ago, has, after many years of struggle, quit drugs
and alcohol and has made remarkable steps towards permanently
removing depression from their life. Though there may still
be some struggles, you have mended relationships and have
truly started to create an entirely new and joyful you.
Congratulations on your self-work and committment....you
know who you are :-) Keep up the good work!
Indigo

Today's Gentle Reminder
=====================================================
Desire vs Committment
There is a huge difference between the desire to remove
depression from our lives and the committment to stopping
it
forever. Desire is just a "wanting", but committment
must come with
action. The action of analyzing your patterns and being
willing to
make *changes in your life that will help you to become
a person you
enjoy spending time with.

Quote of the month
=====================================================
No
man is free who is not master of himself... Is freedom
anything else than the power of living as we choose?
Epictetus
(50-138, Phrygian Philosopher)
With this quote I ask you to commit to choosing your emotions
rather than having the external events determine whether
today
you will feel up or down.
====================================================
Research - I would like to thank our readers for
passing on these articles.

The following article helps to back up the lessons we discuss
in The Wave Riders book; that it is your high energy self
that is bringing you down. You do not need to lose your
creative self; just balance the physical body's needs with
your high energy universal connection that draws intense
demands on the body.

CEO's more vulnerable to depression!
Dr. Charles Nemeroff, who has treated both Johnson and
Fuqua
says stress is a major factor for everyone and a CEO's higher
stress
level makes them more vulnerable to depression.
"They drive themselves inordinately more than other
individuals do,"
said Dr. Charles Nemeroff, Chairman of the Department of
Psychiatry
and Behavioral Sciences at Emory University School of Medicine.
"So they tend not to take as good care of themselves,
both physically
and psychologically, and in the end that takes a toll. There's
another
factor that we don't often think about and that's the frequent
travel, the
jumping across time zones, jet lag. We know that disruption
in
sleep-wake cycles is another precipitant for depression."

It is our desire to get Wave Rider retreats and workshops
out to
people where they live and when they are needed. We are
starting work on the video workshops that will help people
when they need help - where they need
help and will further enhance the lessons read in the book.
We will be working to get like minded groups that honor
their creativity and do not worship the depression together
...all of this takes resourses.
We are gratefully accepting donations to help bring support
to The Wave Riders learning to Ride the Waves to success!
