On this episode of Reading with Your Kids, host Jed Doherty had the pleasure of speaking with three talented children's authors - Jackie Cano, Emily Jenkins, and Abigail Samson.  Jackie Cano shared the heartwarming story behind her book "Sabella Can Sew." Inspired by her own daughter, Jackie wanted to teach kids that they can overcome obstacles and try new things, even if they're challenging at first. She spoke about her own journey of learning to sew and how it sparked a love of the craft in her daughters. Jackie also discussed the unique sacrifices military families make, emphasizing the importance of community support. Next, Jed chatted with Emily Jenkins about her middle grade novel "All the Best Dogs." Set in a Brooklyn dog park, the book follows a group of diverse 6th graders and their canine companions. Emily explained how the book tackles serious issues like family troubles and anxiety, while also providing plenty of laughs and heartwarming moments. She offered great advice for aspiring writers, encouraging them to focus on developing their skills rather than relying on natural "talent." Finally, Jed spoke with 13-year-old author Abigail Samson about her debut book "The Magical World of Candy Topia." Abigail shared how the fantastical story, about a girl named Kate who goes on a journey to save a candy-filled planet, was inspired by her siblings. Jed was impressed by Abigail's maturity and resilience, as she discussed the mix of excitement and anxiety she feels about the positive feedback her book has received.

Emily Jenkins, BSN, RN, RYT 200 is a registered nurse specializing in neurosciences with a focus on Eastern medicine, meditation techniques, non-ordinary states of consciousness, plant medicine integration, and microdosing. She is the founder of Bright Ages, an entheogenic coaching practice focused on serving millennials who are feeling depressed, anxious, lonely, or “unhappy without reason.” She combines integrative and holistic medicine in her offerings. In college, after suffering the sudden loss of her father at the age of 18, she fell into a deep depression. Only a few years later, she lost her dear cousin to an overdose. Her anxiety and depression continued to worsen - over a ten year period she struggled with debilitating mental illness, self harm, addiction, and suicidal ideation.  She worked with many different providers and practitioners over the years but nothing stuck - therapy, medication, sobriety, and everything in between. As she was approaching the end of her rope she felt the call to work with Ayahuasca. Since that experience, her life has undergone a complete transformation. Accompanied by the grace and support of a loving community, she has been able to transition from surviving to thriving. Her purpose is to share this experience with anyone who is ready and willing. Healing is possible. She is actively involved with organizations such as the Isha Foundation, Truth is One, and devotion to Her Holiness Amma Sri Karunamayi. Her wish is for each person to find all the vitality, freedom, and joy life has to offer.  READ THE SHOW NOTES --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/psychedelicintegrationpod/message

Emily Jenkins a professor of nursing at UBC talks about the impacts the second wave of the pandemic is having on Canadians.

David P Ball/ Vancouver Coop Radio - Isolation and quarantine saved thousands of lives during the pandemic, but UBC Nursing assistant professor says her research is a warning to governments to better consider mental health as well. A University of British Columbia nursing professor's new study should cause governments alarm as they battle to protect citizens from the worst impacts of COVID-19 — that they boost resources to also protect people's mental health. Dr. Emily Jenkins is author of the newest research released this week titled "Assessing the mental health impacts of COVID-19: A national survey study." She found that across the country, marginalized communities saw the worst mental health impacts of orders to self-isolate or quarantine at home because they had COVID-19, had contact with a case or traveled. And that includes people being twice as likely to have suicidal thoughts than the general population. For those with disabilities, racialized communities and Indigenous people the impacts were even worse, she explained. But she emphasized that such isolation measures are necessarily to containing the pandemic and reducing its death toll. That is known in the wide array of research so far. Governments should put mental health of citizens closer to the forefront of their thinking and beef up mental wellness support resources, including existing online and phone services such as Bounce Back for anxiety and depression, and Crisis Centres. But the data also reveals deep fractures and gaps in Canada's mental health system, in which generally only the wealthy can pay for private psychological and counseling services, Jenkins said. If you are experiencing mental health distress, you are not alone. B.C. Crisis Centre at crisiscentre.bc.ca or phone 1-800-SUICIDE (1-800-784-2433).
