Mental health isn’t something that is applicable to just some of us—it applies to all of us. We all have mental health, just as we all have physical and emotional health. And just as we all struggle now and then to stay in shape, or manage our emotions, so too will we all face times when our mental health will be impacted by circumstances beyond our control.

CRACKED! The Podcast will bring fresh perspectives to a topic that affects us all. No aspect of mental health from its wide variety of expressions to the multitude of seen and unseen things that can influence it will go unexamined.

According to Hungarian-Canadian physician, speaker and best-selling author, Dr. Gabor Maté: “Trauma is a psychic wound that hardens you psychologically and then interferes with your ability to grow and develop. It pains you and now you’re acting out of pain. It induces fear and now you’re acting out of fear. Trauma is not what happens to you, it’s what happens inside you as a result of what happened to you. Trauma is that scarring that makes you less flexible, more rigid, less feeling and more defended.”

In this episode of Cracked! The Podcast, Rebecca Schaper and Sandie Sedgbeer speak with group and individual psychotherapist and author, Malcolm Stern about understanding, moving beyond, and healing emotional, physical, and psychological trauma.

MALCOLM STERN originally trained in Humanistic Psychology and has been working as a group and individual psychotherapist for more than 30 years. He is co-director and co-founder of alternatives at Alternatives, the internationally renowned platform for leading spiritual teachers and alternative thinking at St. James’s Church in London. In addition to running psychotherapy groups and courses internationally, he teaches occasionally at the Esalen Institute in California and Findhorn in Scotland, and is the author of Falling in Love, Staying in Love, and Slay Your Dragons with Compassion – 10 Ways to Thrive Even When it Feels Impossible.

With statistics showing that stress, depression, anxiety and fear are fast becoming a major global problem, more and more people are turning to medical marijuana to help lift their low moods, calm chronic tension, ameliorate withdrawal symptoms, and ease their physical, mental, and emotional pain.

But how effective is medical marijuana really? And, perhaps more importantly, how safe?

While marijuana is the most commonly used drug of abuse in the USA, 26 states and the District of Columbia have now enacted laws that have legalized its use in some form, and three additional states have passed measures permitting the use of medical marijuana. With the cannabis debate being such a hot topic of late, Rebecca and Sandie have invited experts Dr. Rasean Hodge and Nick McCauley on to Cracked! The Podcast this week to unravel some of the many myths and misconceptions about cannabis in general, and the question of medical marijuana being a safer alternative to opiates and NSAIDs in treating PTS, depression, anxiety, addiction, mental health issues, and pain.

Dr. Rasean Hodge received his Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Morehouse College and earned his medical degree, cum laude, from the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. Dr. Hodge completed his internship and residency in Family Medicine from the Morehouse School of Medicine in 2005.

Upon completion of his education, Hodge matriculated into Family Medicine and served as Investigator on numerous clinical research studies aimed at making the human condition better for those who are suffering. His compassion for those in need continued to be evident as he has led several Hospice Programs throughout Georgia as both Medical Director and Assistant Medical Director.

Nick McCauley is an expert on marijuana.

Mary Beth De Bord is an attorney, author, advocate, wife and mother. Ms. De Bord met Bethany while searching for answers for her son who was ill with a brain disorder. A passionate advocate for those afflicted with serious brain disorders, she has served on the Board of Directors of The CURESZ Foundation since its inception.

Healing Our Wounded Parts with the Internal Family Systems Model with Dr. Richard C. Schwartz

“There are no bad parts.”

We’ve all been taught to believe that we have a single identity or personality, and to feel fear or shame when we can’t control the inner voices that don’t match the ideal of who we think we should be. Yet according to Dr. Richard Schwartz’s research, “All of us are born with many sub-minds—or parts,” and it’s perfectly natural to think that some of them are so bad they must stay hidden.

But the fact is, says Dr. Schwartz, there are no bad parts… for the simple reason that every single part has a purpose.


 
Dr. Richard C. Schwartz has been transforming psychology for decades with his internal family systems (IFS) model developed in response to clients’ descriptions of various parts within themselves. in 2000, he founded the Center for Self-Leadership which offers trainings and workshops in IFS for professionals and the general public. He is the author of five books including, No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model.

Richard Schwartz joins Rebecca and Sandie this week to share why his IFS model has been so effective in areas such as trauma recovery, addiction therapy, and depression treatment and how this new understanding of consciousness has the potential to radically change our lives.

Over 40 years ago, Paul Levy, had a life-transforming spiritual awakening that was misdiagnosed as a psychotic break. repeatedly hospitalized and told he was mentally ill, the abuse he subsequently received from psychiatry destroyed his family and almost killed him.

A Tibetan Buddhist practitioner and founder of the Awakening in the Dream Community in Portland, Oregon, Paul Levy is a noted pioneer in the field of spiritual emergence. A teacher, healer, and artist, Paul Levy is the author of several mind-blowing books including that explore the nature of madness, evil, psychological and emotional abuse, the projection of the shadow self, and the existence of Wetiko – a mind virus that is at the root of every crisis we and the world are facing today, but which, once recognized, can help humanity wake up and bring sanity back to our society. His titles include Awakened by Darkness – When Evil Becomes Your Father, Quantum Revelation: A Radical Synthesis of Science and Spirituality, and Wetiko – Healing the Mind-Virus that Plagues our World.

The Mondragón Experiment, Worker Ownership and Thrival for All

A Conversation With Georgia Kelly, Praxis Peace Institute

SWAMI’S DICTIONARY

Thrival: The stage beyond survival where we all weave a web of mass-construction and reap a “world win”. — Swami Beyondananda

There’s a famous joke purportedly told by a Soviet delegate during a meeting to discuss trade between the two countries during the Cold War Era:

What’s the difference between capitalism and communism?

In capitalism, man exploits man. In communism, it’s the other way around.

The 20th century offered up plenty of evidence that — given human nature, and the nature of the “dominator virus” that has dominated human affairs for the past 5,000 years — despite the best intentions, neither system has created social justice or sustainable economic well being.

The problem with any ideology is, while it might be a helpful place to be “coming from”, it doesn’t allow the flexibility required when we’re ready to stop defending positions and begin actually solving problems.

That brings us to this week’s program featuring the Mondragón Cooperatives in the Basque region of Spain. Writes Georgia Kelly, our guest this week:

It seems that Mondragón has taken the very best ideas from both capitalism and socialism and created a hybrid that supports people, as well as their ideas, health, education, personal development, and society. Whatever one calls it, it works. And, it works better for more people than any other economic system today.

And ironically, this “hybrid” that can look suspiciously like “socialism” was hatched by a Catholic priest in the mid-1950s during the Francisco Franco right wing fascist regime. Based on a philosophy of human values, respect, and equality, the mission of the Mondragón Cooperatives is to “create wealth within a culture, to foster a people-centered society instead of a capital-centered society, to honor work with dignity, and to limit the number of work hours.” Mikel Lezamiz, the recently retired Director of Dissemination at the Mondragón Cooperatives Corporation, said “People are the core, not capital. This is the main point. If capital has the power, then labor is simply its tool.”

Producing everything from computer chips and bicycles to elevators and auto parts, the Mondragón Cooperatives is the tenth-largest Spanish company and the leading business group in the Basque country. At the end of 2014, it employed 74,117 people in 257 companies and organizations in four areas of activity: finance, industry, retail and knowledge.

If you’re curious as to why and how this business has become so successful, and ways that their lessons and ideas can be applied in other places, like the USA, tune in to our interview with Georgia Kelly, who has visited Mondragón numerous times, and leads annual tours there.

If the name Georgia Kelly rings a bell, it’s because this is the same Georgia Kelly who was a world-renowned harpist, composer and recording artist in the 1980s and 1990s, whose albums have been listed in Billboard’s top ten in Classical Crossover and New Age charts. Currently she is director and founder of Praxis Peace Institute whose mission is to produce “cutting-edge educational programs that address the structural problems impacting social and political decision-making.” In addition to annual excursions to Mondragón, Georgia via Praxis has produced conferences in Dubrovnik, Croatia and most recently in Sonoma, California.

Join us this Tuesday, January 30th as we explore a workable model to “we-distribute” wealth and replace “trickle down” with “bubble up.”
