Follow Your Passion

I asked a client the other day, "What hobbies do you have? What's your passion?" She thought for awhile and said "sadly, I am not passionate about anything".

In actuality the act of doing something that is not routine, reduces depression and anxiety. It doesn't have to be anything too grand either.

Then just do it!
