In this podcast, author and counselor Douglas Bloch shows why setting the intention to heal is the first step in mental health recovery. This may seem like a simple act, but it has profound ramifications for your future health and well being. It doesn't matter how long you have suffered from anxiety or depression. Perhaps, like myself, you have been struggling since childhood; or maybe your first episode began six months or six weeks ago. Regardless of the time involved, the first step is the same—making the decision to heal.
