Hey everyone, and welcome to another episode of Mercy Talk! Today, we’re continuing our conversation on counseling by focusing on steps we can take to find the right counselor.

Hey everyone, and welcome to another episode of Mercy Talk! Over the next two weeks, we'll be turning our attention towards the topic of counseling!! While it's no secret that we're huge fans of counseling here at Mercy, today, we wanted to break down the two specific types that we talk about on the show: prayer counseling and licensed counseling. Join us today as we take a closer look at how these services can offer incredible insight individually and work powerfully together! 

On today’s episode of MercyTalk, we are thrilled to have a conversation with nationally renowned psychiatrist, speaker, and author, Dr. Curt Thompson, about some of the amazing content in his upcoming book, The Soul of Desire: Discovering the Neuroscience of Longing, Beauty and Community (releasing in Fall of 2021). Dr Thompson shares about what it means that we are people of desire and the relationship between longing and beauty. Also, in this episode, Dr Thompson shares about… 

• The problem with approaching our lives as problems to be solved instead of artifacts of beauty to create 
• What it means for us to be people of grief 
• How beauty, art, nature, etc change how we approach our lives 
• The importance of community and what it looks like for us to “practice for heaven” 

Join us for this powerful conversation as we learn from Dr Thompson about what it means to be human, to fulfill our intrinsic desire to feel known, valued and connected, and to live into the meaningful reality we desire to create. 

For more from Dr Thompson, check out his “Being Known” podcast and his books, The Anatomy of the Soul and Soul of Shame. You can find those resources and more on his website at CurtThompsonMD.com. 

Hey everyone, and welcome to another episode of Mercy Talk! Last week, we talked about what MENTAL HEALTH actually IS but, more importantly, WHY it should matter to every one of us! So today, we wanted to talk about some practical ways that we can ALL assess our current mental state and increase our mental health. So often, we think of mental health as "all science" or "all Jesus" with no mixture of the 2. But what if we addressed our mental health from a holistic viewpoint (spirit, soul, body)? Don't miss this conversation as we consider what it means to assess our mental health from a more honest place! 

Welcome back to another episode of MercyTalk! This month is Mental Health Awareness Month and we would be remiss if we didn’t take time to talk about a subject that Mercy deals with so heavily! While it can be tempting to omit ourselves from this conversation, mental health is something that should matter to every single one of us! Join us today as we talk about why we should be intentional about our mental health and how it affects our emotional, spiritual, and physical health as well!
