Tip of the Day

There are scientific and semi-scientific theories about why water, specifically large bodies of water, more specifically the ocean, may relieve symptoms of depression.

It can be a “letting go,” releasing worry to something vast and more powerful than yourself.

It's fresh air.

It's a change of environment.

It's all of these things and more. It is, in a word, magic.

So, go to the water – the ocean, a river, a lake, a fountain or a brook – and be refreshed and release your depression. If only for a little while.
