		<description><![CDATA[Emotional Training Helps Kids Fight Depression : NPR.

I felt this when I read it. I can only hope that when I have lived as long as the author, my husband will feel the same way.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t believe that inner beauty is sufficient in this cruel world. That&#8217;s the pap one tells a child. I don&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have been thinking about mental wellness over the past few days, in response to the idea that a patient might not accept a diagnosis and the role diagnosis plays in mental wellness. I&#8217;ve also been thinking about the concept of &#8220;reframing&#8221; that my therapist has me working on, and the concept of mental illness. [...]]]></description>

In an economy that continues it&#8217;s journey up Shit&#8217;s Creek with no paddle in sight; in a country that values consumerism and capitalism as fundamental pillars of society; among people who define success according to wealth and status, it&#8217;s no wonder a lot of [...]]]></description>
