I've noticed a few people recently including myself struggling a bit with depression and so
00:07
I was going to tell you some things that have been helping me on tour and in general in hopes
00:15
that maybe some of them might be good for you too. There's some drilling in the background,
00:20
there's dogs barking, there's all kinds of chaos but that's life I guess. So the first thing I
00:25
wanted to tell you was that there's a thing called free-form writing where you write for 12 minutes
00:32
all your thoughts and then burn it or throw it away. That's very good. Transcendental meditation
00:39
has been really wonderful for me. TM. We'll put links below all this stuff. There's a thing called
00:47
proprioception which is kind of body movement to help balance your brain basically. There's a man
00:55
called Jim Costello who did a thing called the Costello Method. That's very helpful especially
00:59
for young people with ADHD or autism or things like that. The music of John Hopkins, music for
01:07
psychedelic therapy is incredible. A book called The Oxygen Advantage, see all of this here, is great for
01:17
breathing. Then movies are great. There's a movie called Sing Sing I love and there's a new artist
01:24
called Chloe Keisha. Her music is making me happy. There's some people dancing over there, look.
01:34
Practicing some, maybe dancing too. Anyway those are some of the things that are helping me to
01:40
stay grateful and happy to be alive.
