Dr. Ardeshir Mehran spent decades studying "What do people need to be complete?" and asking "Why does depression take so long to heal?"  His answer came in the form of a revolutionary Bill of Emotional Rights.   Dr. Mehran is a psychologist, bestselling author, behavioral researcher, and the founder of the Bill of Emotional Rights.  You can reach Dr. Mehran at his websites  https://www.humanworkstudio.com and https://ardeshirmehran.com

Some of the highlights Dr. Mehran shares:

  • What do people need to be complete?
  • What is depression and why does it take so long to heal?
  • High achievers have a higher than average level of depression
  • What are we missing?  What are we longing for?  Why do we feel empty?
  • Addiction is not about willpower - it's about trying to fill emptiness
  • Physical pain is easier to handle than emotional pain
  • The best gift we can give our children is our own healing.  It's the gift that keeps giving.
  • The Bill of Emotional Rights
  • I belong - emotional bonds, connection

  • I am boundless - physically active, aligned with nature
  • I matter - respected, dignity, appreciated
  • I make - authorship, impact, creativity
  • I am - identity, meaning
  • I soar - purpose, calling, growth
  • And more
