Den »schwarzen Hund«, wie Bev Aisbett Depressionen nennt, zu zähmen und gesund zu werden, scheint vielen Menschen unendlich schwer oder gar unmöglich. Im vorliegenden Buch schöpft die Autorin aus den eigenen Erfahrungen einer überwundenen Depression, um anderen Betroffenen zu helfen. Mit einem eingängigen 30-Tages-Programm motiviert Aisbett dazu, sich der Krankheit nicht zu ergeben, sondern sie entschlossen und aktiv anzugehen. Mit stärkenden Übungen und Mantras für jeden Tag nimmt Aisbett ihre Leser einfühlsam, aber bestimmt an die Hand – auf dem Weg in ein zufriedenes und selbstbestimmtes Leben.
