Mindfulness, Meditation, and Mental Health (M3 Podcast)

Today's episode features John Tsungme Guy MA, LMHC, a great psychotherapist in Seattle. We dive in deep on the many stigmas in mental health, the powerful impact it has, and dealing with suffering. One thing I love about this episode and John is his focus and specialty on working with Creatives. I've been a Video Producer (and a musician years ago) so this was so relatable and can apply to so many Creatives out there. Of course, we also discuss mindfulness in details and how it can apply and help us through suffering, depression, and help serve us as a "compass" in difficult times.Note, this was recorded in person back in December. I love and miss the feeling and vibes you get from meeting and conversing with a guest face to face. Will definitely be filming more once the corona craziness is over.John Tsungme Guy - Counselor, MA, LMHCWebsite:http://www.johntsungmeguy.com/Psychology Today:https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/john-tsungme-guy-seattle-wa/249567Keep updated:@rudystudios

A great episode with the Founder and CEO of Acuity Counseling, Colleen Hilton, MA, LMFT. As most of the world is still on lock down and are socially distancing, we discuss healthy ways to try and manage our depression and anxiety during this difficult time. Also, Colleen's discussion about the important difference between social distancing and social isolation is key and she provides many great tips to stay connected. Lastly, we discuss how vital therapy and talking to a professional can be, especially as uncertainty is skyrocketing. We discuss signs to lookout for and doing a "self-inventory" to check if you're at your best self. Also, I love that Colleen and her team are completely dedicated to providing resources such as telehealth (online therapy) during this pandemic.
