Getting the Word Out to the Public and Professionals
For those of you who are interested in spreading the Depression Recovery Education news, here are some suggestions from a career Television Manager.
1- Go VIRAL- That means we start blogging and using the web--and the word starts spreading.
2- If several people will start blogs and tell all their friends and class members about them, the word will start to spread.
3- On our blogs, explain our story. Why did we get interested in these programs? What is our involvement in the Mental Health arena? Etc.
4- Keep the blogs to under 500 words. Put appropriate pictures on the blogs to add interest. Remember that it is open to the public, so do the blog accordingly.
5- About every 4th blog, write on a current topic that has some controversy if you want to get more readership to your blog.
6- Know our objectives: To provide educational opportunities for professionals in Utah, and to educate the Utah public about Depression and Anxiety healing (and for Jacob, about ADD and ADHD).
7- When our under-structure is sound in Utah, we want to appear on local talk shows, radio stations, and newspapers so that the public can have access to the program.
8- Let's Do This!!!!

Two Reasons to Take Your Kids Grocery Shopping
I thought the following commentary would be a useful addition to the nutrition class of your recovery programs - it's offered by Shane "The People's Chemist" Ellison:
"Nothing manifests vibrant health more than what we eat. That's why my wife and I always make it a point to take our kids grocery shopping with us. This allows us to teach them how to avoid sneaky labeling and deceptive branding, and how to pick the best foods for a healthy meal.
The first lesson is how to read labels so that they don't get ensnared in grocery store fat traps. We teach them to look for things like high fructose corn syrup, MSG, dextrose and sucrose. Then, we explain how to avoid the hormone smashers so that your muscles don't evaporate. These include the health branded sports drinks, juices and flavored teas.
The second lesson is how important it is to pick a healthy balance of the right foods. We let our kids pick out their own veggies, which gets them excited about eating good food. (We also let them help prepare their meals, which gets them even more involved in healthy eating.)
including them in your weekly shopping trip helps kids realize how important healthy natural foods are to their bodies. In my family, health is wealth. And in this we are abundant!"
About the author:
Shane Ellison's entire career has been dedicated to the study of molecules - how they give life and how they take from it. He was a two-time recipient of the prestigious Howard Hughes Medical Institute Research Grant for his research in biochemistry and physiology. He is a bestselling author, holds a master's degree in organic chemistry, and has first-hand experience in drug design.
