Product description...

THE BODY MIND MIRACLE TO DEFEAT DEPRESSION

STAND UP TO DEPRESSION takes readers a major step forward toward adopting a positive posture — mentally and physically — to help conquer the scourge of depression. Medicines have their place. Psychotherapy has its place. But the physical “stance” that can help signal the mind that a person is moving forward in life, not giving up, has been neglected. No more. Kathi Fairbend, one of the nation’s top physical therapists, is also one of the champions of the body-mind connection. Many, many people will benefit from what her book delivers.
~ Rock G. Positano, DPM, MSc, MPH, DSc (hon), Professor and Director of the Non-Surgical Foot and Ankle Service, Joe DiMaggio Sports Medicine Foot and Ankle Center, Hospital for Special Surgery

Over the past 20 years, I have worked closely with Kathi Fairbend. I have witnessed her healing powers both as a world-leading physical therapist and a highly skilled ergonomic consultant. She can immediately ‘see’ physical imbalances that underlie physical pain when others cannot, and has the perfect antidote in the form of a simple set of postural exercises. In STAND UP TO DEPRESSION, she goes one step further by recognizing the dynamic interdependence between body and mind, as well as between psychological pain and physical imbalance. She explores how reestablishing a healthy physical posture can feed back to positively influence how we feel about ourselves and improve our cognitive state. In essence, she offers a potential escape from the downward spiral of depression.

Kathi is among the very best medical professionals. I have found her to have extraordinary insight, judgement and compassion. She is an outstanding diagnostician with a skill at pinpointing the problem and prescribing exercises that remedy and prevent further problems. Her analysis of the way I walk and carry myself has indicated how I have harmed myself.
~ Benson Shapiro, Malcolm P. Mair, Professor Emeritus at the Harvard Business School
