SESSION FOUR	TREATING MOOD DISORDERS, ANXIETY, AND ATTENTION DEFICIT DISORDER WITHOUT MEDICATION: Dr. Robert Hedaya, Georgetown University. More and more, health care providers rely on medications for treatment of depression, anxiety and Attention Deficit Disorder. Yet these medications much if not most of the time work partially, at best. In addition, there are frequent side effects, both in the short term and long term. Dr. Hedaya will explore cutting edge, science based tools, used in the Whole Psychiatry model, which allow people to achieve better mental (and physical!) health, with less medicine.
SESSION FIVE	SAVING THE PLANET (AND OURSELVES!) – ONE BREATH AT A TIME: Beryl Bender Birch, Director/Founder, The Hard & Soft Yoga Institute, Author of Power Yoga, Beyond Yoga and Boomer Yoga. Beryle will show you by slowly learning to pay attention, through the practice of movement, breathing, and meditation, we can begin to quiet our noisy brain, see more clearly, turn on the relaxation response, deal with our high-stress culture, and become happier, healthier, calmer, more content, and more conscious.
SESSION SIX	REFLECTIONS ON THE ART OF LIVING AND HEALING: Dr. Bernie Siegel, Physician and Author of Love, Medicine and Miracles. Dr. Siegel will reflect on the art of living and healing. He will discuss his experiences over the last 30 years with people who are confronting life´s physical and emotional challenges.
