This episode begins with Doctor Juni outlining his work withpsychiatric criminal populations and his efforts exploring their personal perspective about theirbehavior. By in large ,most of these people realized that they were acting in a harmfulmanner that would yield negative consequences. Juni relates this to actions and decisions of world leaders,including the last two US presidents. To properly grasp why this phenomena persists ,Dr. Junipoints to two ingrained dynamics which originate in early child developmentduring a period where the child has little understanding of reality testing.The first is a tendency to feel omnipotent and being convinced that one isunable to do wrong. The second, in contrast, is a mode of self-flagellationwhich entails a conviction that one is “bad”– –a perspective which engenders aself a sense of futility and helplessness. Juni stresses that the latter isalways accompanied by a conviction that one “deserves” punishment, and thatthis holds true even in adults who are overtly atheist or do not subscribe toany particular system of right and wrong. The doctor stresses that it isimportant here to understand that the ego administers a number of ambivalentmotives which are contradictory to each other Taking a more behavioral stance, Rabbi Kivelevitz suggeststhat people may be motivated by the “comfortable old shoe“ phenomenon wherethey revert to behavior they are used to simply because they are familiar withit -- even if they know it is harmful. When pushed to formulate a strategy of what someone can doto counter such nonfunctional behavior patterns. Juni suggests that by simplyunderstanding that one has a number of beneficial and harmful contradictory dynamicswhich exist side-by-side -- – – that alone can give some people some masteryover unacceptable impulses. Kivelevitz presents a prospective espoused by my Maimonideswhich is consistent with Aristotelian philosophy, Franz Rosenzweig's approachto personality, and the teachings of Rabbi Eliyahu Dessler. The approachentails being aware of harmful instincts and coming up with strategies tooppose them consciously. Dr. Juni ventures to present his own personal perspective(not at all related to his professional perspective) that there is a specificmoral component (as posited by Kohlberg) which may well include inborntendencies towards good and evil ,possibly along the lines of Yetzer Tov andYetzer Harah (good and evil inclinations). Juni stresses that despite hisabsolute conviction about the truth of traditional Psychoanalytic Gospel ofunconscious repressed formative dynamics as the major determinants of adultbehavior, one need not rule out inborn moral components. Expanding on this ideain light of the approaching high holidays, Kivelevitz elaborates theunderstanding of the transcendental aspect of the soul which, according toJewish tradition, is accessible by human beings who seek to better themselves. Doctor Samuel Juni is one of the foremost research psychologists in the world today. He has published groundbreaking original research in seventy different peer reviewed journals, and is cited continuously with respect by colleagues and experts in the field who have built on his theories and observations. Samuel Juni studied in Yeshivas Chaim Berlin under Rav Yitzchack Hutner, and in Yeshiva University as a Talmid of Rav Joseph Dov Soloveitchick. Professor Juni is a prominent member of the Association of Orthodox Jewish Scientists, and has regularly presented addresses to captivated audiences. Associated with NYU since 1979, Juni has served as Director of MA and PhD programs, all the while heading teams engaged in important research. Professor Juni's scholarship on aberrant behavior across the cultural, ethnic, and religious spectrum is founded on psychometric methodology and based on a psycho-dynamic psychopathology perspective. He is arguably the preeminent expert in Differential Diagnostics, with each of his myriad studies entailing parallel efforts in theory construction and empirical data collection from normative and clinical populations. Professor Juni created and directed NYU's Graduate Program in Tel Aviv titled Cross-Cultural Group Dynamics in Stressful Environments. Based in Yerushalayim, he collaborates with Israeli academic and mental health specialists in the study of dissonant factors and tensions in the Arab-Israeli conflict and those within the Orthodox Jewish community, while exploring personality challenges of second-generation Holocaust survivors. Below is a partial list of the journals to which Professor Juni has contributed over 120 articles. Many are available on line Journal of Forensic Psychology Journal of Aggression, Maltreatment, and Trauma. International Review of Victimology The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease International Forum of Psychoanalysis Journal of Personality Assessment Journal of Abnormal Psychology Journal of Psychoanalytic Anthropology Psychophysiology Psychology and Human Development Journal of Sex Research Journal of Psychology and Judaism Contemporary Family Therapy American Journal on Addictions Journal of Criminal Psychology Mental Health, Religion & Culture As Rosh Beis Medrash, Rabbi Avraham Kivelevitz serves as Rav and Posek for the morning minyan at IDT. Hundreds of listeners around the globe look forward to his weekly Shiur in Tshuvos and Poskim.

We sat down with Anders Beatty, Founder of Ibogaine Counselling Services Anders is a qualified integrative psychotherapist and plant medicine counsellor who founded Ibogaine Counselling Services after overcoming his own 25 year battle with addiction. His groundbreaking pre-and-post-treatment program has become widely adopted as a fundamental component of professional ibogaine treatments, and his guidance and counselling services are now relied upon by most of the top ibogaine providers worldwide. Anders approach to addiction focuses on the trauma his clients have suffered and looks to address this in their recovery so that their journey becomes the narrative of empowerment. Anders regularly engages and speaks at various Psychedelic events, forums and podcasts.

If you have ever experienced a traumatic event and were not able to process it for any reason, the trauma can get frozen in your senses and emotions. You can get triggered months, years or even decades later. Acknowledging your feelings and paying attention to what is happening in your body is an important first step. The second step is to ask for help. There are many different types of therapists available, and there are a variety of different approaches they can use to help you cope.

Hearing loss can have many emotional and social consequences including social isolation, depression, safety issues, mobility limitations and reduced income and employment opportunities. In children and youth, there is evidence that hearing loss negatively affects academic performance and language development needed for classroom learning and vocational achievement. In older adults, hearing loss has also been shown to be associated with poor quality of life and functional limitations. Among seniors, loneliness and social isolation are common problems which are unfortunately only exacerbated by hearing loss. Many seniors become frustrated with their efforts to hear and understand, especially in noisy environments. As a result they avoid activities, people and places they once enjoyed. With an aging society, the number of persons with hearing loss will grow, increasing the demand for related services. Laura Prong of the Canadian Hearing Society (CHS) works as a case manager in supportive housing for people who are Deaf, Hard of Hearing, Oral Deaf, and have mental health issues. Veronica Bickle is a General Support Services Counsellor for the CHS. In this video, they explain the mission of the Canadian Hearing Society to remove barriers to communication for the Deaf, Hard of Hearing, Oral Deaf and Deafened people in our communities. They introduce the various support services offered and provide an understanding of the tools and strategies available for communicating with the Deaf. Questions for Further Consideration: 1. What is the proper terminology to use with reference to difficulties with hearing? According to the Canadian Hearing Society, the following guidelines are provided regarding terminology: Avoid: Use: Hearing impaired Deaf Deaf & dumb oral deaf Deaf mute hard of hearing Hearing disabilities deafened people with hearing loss How do the Deaf develop their own community and culture? The single fact of being Deaf usually entails a whole set of shared experiences among deaf people. With reference to those who have been deaf since childhood, the vast majority attend residential schools where the students eat, sleep, study and play together. Throughout their school and adult years, deaf people are also drawn together by sport activities and social events for deaf people. Special tours, newsletters, school reunions, and conventions are other means of drawing deaf people together. The result of this continuous contact in academic, social, and job-related situations is that deaf people have formed a cohesive and mutually supportive community. Approximately 90% of deaf people have hearing parents. Those parents use a verbal language (English), a language that the deaf child cannot hear or learn with ease. It is at school, with peers, that most personal and social information-sharing occurs and where close relationships are established through a language especially shaped for the eyes rather than the ears - language passed on by deaf parents whose children then teach it to other deaf children. At the heart of every community is language. This language embodies the thoughts and experiences of its users who, in turn, learn about their culture and share it with their peers. Thus, deaf people learn about their own culture and share their experience with each other through American Sign Language (ASL). Reference: NL Association of the Deaf What is the Deaf community? (http://www.nlad.org/what-is-the-deaf-community) What technologies are used to assist in communication with the Deaf? Access to a variety of Technologies has greatly enhanced the communication with and among those who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing. TTY: A Telecommunications device used when phoning; place the telephone handset on the TTY coupler. You and the caller who has the TTY will type back and forth, using GA (go ahead) to signal to the other person to type, and SKSK (stop keying) to end the conversation. Aliant Relay Services (ARS): Enable TTY users to place calls to or receive calls from non-TTY users, with the assistance of a relay service communicator. TTY to voice: 711 Cell Phone: allows telephone calls that support a wide variety of services such as text messaging, email and internet access. Computer: personal computers have connections to the Internet, allowing access to the World Wide Web (www) and a wide range of other resources such as YouTube and Skype where you can see Deaf people signing ASL in video. Closed Captioning: Process of displaying text on a television to provide interpretive information to individuals. Sign Language Interpreter: Facilitate communication between persons (Deaf and hard of hearing) who use sign language and persons who do not use sign language. For many Deaf people, this is a customary means of communication. Reference: NL Association of the Deaf What is the Deaf community? (http://www.nlad.org/what-is-the-deaf-community) What services are provided by the Canadian Hearing Society? The Canadian Hearing Society offers the following services: Hearing Healthcare Services - hearing tests, hearing aid sales, support for people living with hearing loss Education Programs - sign language instruction, literacy training, information and public awareness Employment Consulting - assistance with job search, employment support, employment resources Counselling Services - outreach and counselling to older adults, general and mental health counselling, addiction and court diversion services, outreach to children, youth and families Accessibility Services - ASL and LSQ interpreting, Communication Access Real-time Translation, “CART”, communication devices, workplace accessibility consulting, conference accessibility coordination, video conferencing Glossary: Culturally Deaf: Individuals who use American Sign Language (ASL) as their primary language and have their own culture and community Oral deaf: Individuals with severe to profound hearing loss who use speech-reading to communicate; most people with this condition do not use ASL Hard of hearing: Individuals may be born with partial hearing loss, or may develop a loss later in life. Hearing loss may be mild to severe. Some people prefer to use ASL while others choose oral communication. Deafened: Severe or profound hearing loss gradually or later in life; usually don’t know ASL or speech-reading; Many seniors belong in this category. ASL: American Sign Language - has its own grammar and syntax (word order) distinct from spoken language; not a universal sign language; many countries have their own sign language TTY: stands for ‘Text Telephone’ or ‘Tele Typewriter’ which is telecommunications devise used by the deaf or hard of hearing; individuals will type back and forth using this device in order to communicate. When typing a message, the letters GA (go ahead) are used to signal to the other person to type, and SKSK (stop keying) used to end the conversation.
