The Best Prozac - Take a Break in Nature


A most powerful anti-depressant is time out in nature. When times get tough, when you are working too hard, when you feel down, let nature calm you down and restore your inner peace.

For me, the ocean - the refreshing sea breeze, the sound of the waves crashing on the shore, the hues of blues and greens of the water restore peace and washes away the stress of the daily grind.
You do not need a full vacation to do this, plan mini day trips, eat your lunch at a park, take a walk or a nap by the ocean, read, listen to music outside in your garden. Doing this alone is awesome; but bring along your loved ones, or your favorite dog can be fun, too.

I'm a workaholic and it takes conscious effort to plan these all important breaks. So far, this is the best Prozac (anti-depressant) I've ever tried. When I am rested, I am a much happier person. I build up the joy, peace, and contentment within me. Therefore, I have more of these to give to those around me. My Mahal Spirit is restored.
