The Little Book of Beating the Blues by Cheri Huber
This look at "the blues" shows us that the worst thing we can do is try to fight them. The author suggests that resisting depression - or anything else you don't want - actually sustains it and that compassionate acceptance of your feelings and yourself leads to freedom. Through simple exercises and meditations readers learn to open up to emotions, both good and bad, because, according to the author when you open yourself up to pain you also open yourself up to joy.
Cheri Huber is the author of 19 books, including There Is Nothing Wrong with You, When You're Falling, Dive, and Time-Out for Parents. She founded the Mountain View Zen Center in Mountain View, California, and the Zen Monastery Practice Center in Murphys, California, and teaches in both communities. She travels widely and often, leading workshops and retreats around the United States and abroad, most recently in Costa Rica and Italy. She founded Living Compassion in 2003, a nonprofit group comprised of There Is Nothing Wrong With You Retreats (based on the book); Global Community for Peace: The Assisi Peace Project; The Africa Vulnerable Children Project; and Open Air Talk Radio, her weekly call-in radio show originating from Stanford University. She lives in Murphys, California.
