BUDOYOGA

Budoyoga incorporates beautiful aerobic movement with strength building isometric exercise --- Dear Mark, I played golf with you about a month ago and said that I would email you a comment about exercise and depression. I apologize for not reporting back sooner. My experience as a clinical psychologist(Charles G. O'Malley Ph.D.) for almost 30 years has provided a consistent observation that depressed people who have the habit of regular aerobic exercise every other day have lower functional impairments from the condition. In fact, studies over the past five years have shown that regular aerobic exercise provides about the same benefit as antidepressant medication. I strongly encourage all depressed clients to develop this habit but unfortunately, it is difficult to get this discipline started for those that have been inactive as way of life. Maybe I'll see you on the course some time again. I was impressed by your unusual vitality. Sincerely, Jerry O'Malley(Charles is my formal name).
