What does it really mean to grieve — and when does grief become a danger to your life? In this weighty episode, host Gabe Howard sits down with Dr. Mary-Frances O'Connor, a leading expert in psychology whose work on grief and loss has touched millions. Dr. O'Connor shares groundbreaking insights on the subtle yet critical differences between the stereotypical grief process and prolonged grief, revealing why your heart can literally stop functioning due to loss. From staggering statistics showing a man's heart attack risk skyrockets on the day his spouse dies, to the intimate science of how our bonds regulate our well-being, this conversation is as thought-provoking as it is moving. Discover practical strategies to navigate those raw, overwhelming moments of loss, and learn how to build a personal toolkit for healing. Whether you're coping with grief yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode promises a deep, human exploration into turning heartbreak into hope. This episode has been sponsored by the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA). “It's not just that you're having grief, which is normal. It's that we're unable to find a way to adapt given that we have grief. So people with prolonged grief feel like life holds no meaning anymore, or they feel so angry and bitter about what's happened that they have trouble connecting with their living loved ones.” ~ Mary-Frances O'Connor, PhD Our guest, Mary-Frances O'Connor, PhD, is a professor of psychology at the University of Arizona, where she directs the Grief, Loss and Social Stress (GLASS) Lab, investigating the effects of grief on the brain and the body. Her book “The Grieving Brain” was included on Oprah's list of Best Books to Comfort a Grieving Friend. O'Connor holds a PhD in clinical psychology from the University of Arizona and completed a postdoctoral fellowship in psychoneuroimmunology at the UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior. Having grown up in Montana, she now lives in Tucson, Arizona. Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning writer and speaker who lives with bipolar disorder.

This is a pebble in the road about the ADAA On-line Support Group.    Sometimes you need to connect to an actual human being. Or a group of people that share your problem or have similar questions.    Lots of things happening and I'm trying to adjust to them. In future episodes, probably starting with this one, there will be a transcript available. It will be 90% accurate. If your podcast player supports transcripts, it should be visible.   Meaning, that most of what I mention in the episode is present but after I do a bit of editing, tweaking and finding out that I made a big honking mistake it might be a little different.   It is the right thing to do but I have to find a way to consistently do it. And then go back and do it for the older episodes as well.    It is humbling. So many typos and lapses of thought.    Yikes.   If you need support contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988 or 1-800-273-8255, the Trevor Project at 1-866-488-7386 or text “START” to 741-741.

He got his break when Auckland children's rugby teams were being scouted to find a boy for a TV commercial. After auditioning with hundreds of other young rugby players, Daniel got the part, his first acting role, playing a little boy who gets knocked into the mud by Auckland rugby star Michael Jones. He was noticed by other casting agents and that break led to more commercials and TV appearances, including a recurring role in episodes of the New Zealand medical series "Shortland Street" and a guest appearance in the international hit "Hercules: The Legendary Journeys." Daniel also starred in the short film, "Falling Sparrows" and provided the lead & supporting voices in 2 animated series' "Tamota" and "Takapu." He also had a part in "The Legend of Johnny Lingo." At the top of this young actor's growing resume sits "Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones," with the coveted role of Boba Fett. Playing Boba Fett required more than a love of action, it also required patience. Daniel recalls being next to blue and green screen backdrops through seemingly endless special effects takes. At one point, a series of 82 different shots of Daniel was done for a special effects sequence of clones that would only last a few seconds on-screen. He knows all the work was worth it and is very proud and honored to be a part of the Star Wars legacy.   About Elks As a 150-year-old organization, they are 100% inclusive with a membership of close to 1 million diverse men and women in over 2,000 Lodges nationally, and while they consider themselves faith-based, they are nondenominational and open to all creeds.

Stress can be crippling and learning to identify emotions can be hard. On today's episode, Jodie Sweetin and Amy McCarthy talk about the unprecedented amount of stress kids are under with  Erin Wick, Senior Behavioral Health & Student Support Director, and Dr. Krystal Lewis a psychologist at the National Institute of Mental Health. The group discusses how to differentiate between stress and anxiety, how to recognize when your child is undergoing stress, and what to do if you do notice those signs.

Tune in to receive additional resources to help your child de-stress and better regulate.   IN THIS EPISODE: [01:13] How to differentiate between stress and anxiety [03:48] Ways to de-stress and regulate [05:29] Daniel addresses helping his son deal with stressors [09:57] How to recognize stress in your child's life [13:36] Ways to help kids if you do notice signs of stress in your child [17:23] Additional resources for parents to get connected to help   KEY TAKEAWAYS: Meditation can be a good way to de-stress and regulate for kids and adults.

What may not seem to be that big of a deal to you, can be huge to a child. You need to validate their emotions and then you can problem-solve together. ***DISCLAIMER***The views, information, or opinions expressed during the Awkward Conversation series are solely those of the individuals, speakers, commentators, experts, and or hosts involved and do not necessarily reflect nor represent those of the production, associates or broadcaster, or any of its employees.

On this episode of Blindsided, we welcome professional golfer Bubba Watson. Bubba has won 12 times on the PGA Tour, including twice at The Masters, where he claimed the Green Jacket in 2012 and again in 2014.

The number of Christians living with anxiety is also rising at an alarming rate. According to a study conducted by the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), 32.4% of Christians in America are living with anxiety, which is more than double what it was just ten years ago when only 16.8% suffered from such an ailment! In today's fast-paced society, many Christians are living in fear with anxiety. In a world where success is measured by an individual's ability to keep up and do more than they were able to the day before, it can be difficult for someone of any faith tradition not to feel overwhelmed at some point or another. The number of Christians suffering from anxiety has also been increasing alarmingly over recent years; one third say that their own stress level impacts how often they attend church services on Sundays as well as who goes out into the community. There is a significant number of Christians in this world who are living with fear and anxiety. If you're wondering if it's possible for someone to be both Christian and have these types of feelings, the answer is yes! Many people - including many Christians - live their lives feeling anxious because they don't feel like themselves anymore or that they're not doing enough for others. These fears can take over our minds so much until we're physically sick from them; however, there are ways to heal your mind as well as strengthen yourself against future attacks on your mental health. The answer is providing in Scripture. Christ is the answer. This episode will help the listener to focus on eternity.

Figuring out how to balance being generally informed about the world's goings-on and making it through a news cycle without wanting to scream is... tough. Sure, it's important to stay on top of events that impact you and your fellow humans — but it's no secret that constant exposure to negative news isn’t doing your mental health any favors. According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), endlessly seeking out more information about something that stresses you out can be a form of attempting to control your anxiety. But that often backfires, with information overload making anxiety worse instead. If the news you're consuming isn't giving you new information that will tangibly help your life in some way, you might want to reevaluate whether all that scrolling is making you feel better or worse. That doesn't mean you have to resign yourself to knowing nothing, though. Clinical psychologist and award-winning podcaster Ellen Hendriksen tells Bustle how to tell if you need to cut back on your news consumption, and how to still learn what you need to know. If today's news stories have you worried about your civil rights or your safety (or both), then your body could start seeing the news as a very real danger. "If you're of a demographic or a belief system that is being targeted, the news can be a threat," Hendriksen tells Bustle. Unsurprisingly, when you start to perceive the news as dangerous, your body's fear response kicks in to protect you. Hendriksen says that while the body's "fight or flight" response is awesome for keeping you alive, it's not super useful when there's a 24-hour news cycle keeping us in chronic stress. Additionally, since "fight or flight" prepares our bodies to either run away or Hulk out, physical symptoms are always part of the package. "Our blood rushes to our major muscle groups so that we can run or fight, we become hyper-vigilant so we can scan the environment and see where the threat is coming from," Hendriksen explains. "We lighten our load by having to go to the bathroom so we can be more nimble or run faster, and we hyper-focus on the thing that could be a threat." Hendriksen also points out that chronic stress can cause things like a tight jaw, sore neck or shoulders, gastrointestinal problems, sleeping difficulties, and difficulty concentrating. Another physical sign of anxiety to be mindful of is a tendency to hold your breath whenever you're scrolling through social media or checking the news. If the news makes you so anxious that you literally stop breathing, that's a clear indicator that you need to cut back on your news intake. Whether you're a journalist, a professor, or simply a person with a social media account, then you can probably empathize with feeling exhausted and unmotivated whenever you think about checking the news. Hendriksen says the three cardinal signs of burnout are fatigue, resentment, and working harder while achieving less. If any of that sounds like your current relationship with all things news-related, then you're probably burning out on updates. According to Hendriksen, this means you need to start paying closer attention to what drains your energy and what replenishes it. Does switching off social media after 8 p.m. spark joy? Does your body get that much tenser when you check for all the updates while your coffee is brewing? Maybe talking to friend A about politics makes you both riled up and hopeless, while long chats about the state of the world with friend B actually makes you feel like everything might not be a complete disaster. Examine these dynamics in your own life and try to replace the draining activities with replenishing ones. Hendriksen recommends working in as many energy-boosting activities as possible, but she says it's equally important to "minimize the energy-draining activities to what you need to do, but no more than that." If you've been dreading dinner with your election-obsessed relatives, or you're literally afraid to check your Twitter feed these days, it's likely a sign you need to step away. "Dread is just another word for anxiety," Hendriksen says, "so that's certainly a warning sign that you're not feeling safe." Hiding out can seem like a good idea when you're feeling threatened, but Hendriksen says it may not be the greatest long-term solution. Instead of avoiding all your Zoom social calls or deleting your social media entirely, Hendriksen suggests answering all the "what ifs" that might be worrying you. Whether you fear getting trapped into a political conversation with your uncle or you just don't want to see another terrible event pop up in your news feed, figure out exactly what you're afraid of. This way, you can come up with a few options for dealing with it. As Hendriksen explains, "If you can plan to engage with the thing that you're dreading, that can be very soothing because then you have a plan of action ... It kind of reminds your brain that you can deal with this, that you're capable." If your bestie's mere mention of the latest world disaster has you wanting to scream, it might be time to learn how to set boundaries around political conversations. "Think ahead about what you're willing to listen to, what your patience can stand, what is healthy for you, and what topics might be OK to talk about." If you're in a larger social setting when politics come up, there's nothing wrong with simply removing yourself from the conversation. If, however, you're stuck in a small Zoom room, or your uncle's maneuvered you into discussing Trump's COVID diagnosis, know that it is possible to change the subject without starting an argument. Hendriksen suggests the sandwich method, where you give a compliment, constructive feedback, and transition back to a compliment. "You can do a similar thing with trying to change the subject — so give a compliment, and then change the subject to something that you're more comfortable with that flatters them." You could give your uncle props for being informed about Trump’s latest hospital visit, and then immediately ask how his kids/pets/job are doing. You can also always use the good, old-fashioned, "I disagree with you, but I'm not willing to discuss it anymore right now." If you want to cut back on the news without becoming a hermit, Hendriksen says you can filter what you can control. "News is like a fish that grows as big as the tank you put it in," Hendriksen says. "If our whole day is open to absorbing news through email or alerts or whatever, then it's going to take up a lot of time and a lot of headspace." Rather than checking the news every hour, Hendriksen suggests designating a couple of brief news check-ins throughout your day. Hendriksen also advises against checking your phone for news alerts first thing in the morning — including social media — since waking up to bad news could easily set a negative tone for your day. If you feel like you might benefit from a total news fast, that's completely fine also. "It's certainly OK to unplug and focus on things you value and enjoy, just to get it out of your system," Hendriksen says. So there you have it — permission to do whatever you need to protect your mental health.

It’s an intimate relationship between ourselves and the world. So, when that world is breaking apart, what is love, after all?

Welcome to Episode 4 of The Steward Project Podcast, a conversation on mental health. Specifically, depression and suicide in the wake of the recent suicides of Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain. If you or someone you love suffers from depression or have/have had suicidal thoughts, this is the episode for you. In this episode, I share some brain science around depression, my personal experience with depression and suicide, and some answers to common questions. Is depression just a "chemical imbalance" in the brain? Do all people who suffer with depression become suicidal? What is going on in the brain when someone is suicidal? How do I help?

This week on Relationships 2.0 my guest is Sally M. Winston, PsyD co-author of Overcoming Unwanted Intrusive Thoughts: A CBT-based Guide to Getting Over Frightening, Obsessive, or Disturbing Thoughts About the book: You are not your thoughts! In this powerful book, two anxiety experts offer proven-effective cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) skills to help you get unstuck from disturbing thoughts, overcome the shame these thoughts can bring, and reduce your anxiety. If you suffer from unwanted, intrusive, frightening, or even disturbing thoughts, you might worry about what these thoughts mean about you. Thoughts can seem like messages—are they trying to tell you something? But the truth is that they are just thoughts, and don’t necessarily mean anything. Sane and good people have them. If you are someone who is plagued by thoughts you don’t want—thoughts that scare you, or thoughts you can’t tell anyone about—this book may change your life. In this compassionate guide, you’ll discover the different kinds of disturbing thoughts, myths that surround your thoughts, and how your brain has a tendency to get “stuck” in a cycle of unwanted rumination. You’ll also learn why common techniques to get rid of these thoughts can backfire. And finally, you’ll learn powerful cognitive behavioral skills to help you cope with and move beyond your thoughts, so you can focus on living the life you want. Your thoughts will still occur, but you will be better able to cope with them—without dread, guilt, or shame. If you have unwanted thoughts, you should remember that you aren’t alone. In fact, there are millions of people just like you—good people who have awful thoughts, gentle people with violent thoughts, and sane people with “crazy” thoughts. This book will show you how to move past your thoughts so you can reclaim your life! About the author: Sally M. Winston, PsyD, founded and codirects the Anxiety and Stress Disorders Institute of Maryland in Towson, MD. She served as the first chair of the Clinical Advisory Board of the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), and received their prestigious Jerilyn Ross Clinician Advocate Award. She is a master clinician who has given sought-after workshops for therapists for decades. She is coauthor of What Every Therapist Needs to Know About Anxiety Disorders.
