Podcasts about military meditation coach

Special guest: Dr. Julie Kinn.Military families face many unique challenges- from long family separations and shifted responsibilities in the household to frequent moving, injuries and sadly, sometimes, grief and loss. That means that being a child in a military family means a great deal of adjustment to frequent change as well as a host of undulating emotions that come from deployment, reunions, the unknowns and the new normal. How do we talk to military kids about the unique challenges that they face? And how do we answer the questions from kids who are not military families about how to support and understand their military friends who may not always be on sure footing. Dr. Julie Kinn is a licensed clinical psychologist with over 15 years of experience researching and implementing health technology. At the Department of Defense and the Defense Health Agency, Kinn oversees the development and implementation of health technology for the military and veteran communities. She also initiated the Military Health Podcast program and produces/hosts three Department of defense OD podcasts: "A Better Night's Sleep", "The Military Meditation Coach", and "Next Generation Behavioral Health". Dr. Kinn, through the Department Of Defense, is responsible for two mobile apps with Sesame Street-- Sesame Street's Big Moving Adventure and Breathe, Think, Do.  Big Moving Adventure was made to help kids cope with moving in the general sense, but was made specifically to help the children of military families who have to move constantly. Dr. Kinn's overall mission is to promote behavioral health for veterans and their families which includes promoting behavioral health in their communities as well.  The post How to Talk to Military Kids about Common Stressors and Concerns with Dr. Julie Kinn Rerelease appeared first on drrobynsilverman.com.

Defense Health Agency’s Connected Health Branch is the U.S. Department of Defense’s (DoD) innovative provider of behavioral health technologies, supporting DoD’s goals for increasing access to care, establishing best practices and standards and reducing the stigma associated with seeking mental health services. Dr. Julie Kinn works for Defense Health Agency’s Connected Health Branch to help develop mobile apps and online resources to improve the lives of service members, veterans, and their families. These mobile and online tools are free, easy to use, and trusted by members of the military community. Some of the apps include: Breathe2Relax, DreamEZ, Virtual Hope Box, and T2 Mood Tracker. In this conversation we discuss why and how the DHA is working to bring these resources into the lives of service members, veterans, and their families through technology and how beginning small habits like a few minutes of daily reflection and meditation can be a great way to care for your mental health and wellness during your career transition out of the military. We also had a great opportunity to dive into the way this transition impacts families, and what the DHA has done to address children that are navigating the transition process along with their military parents.
