Tune In: Radio for Your Mind, Body & Soul

What is transitional homelessness?

Sandra Roussel knows. She has not only experienced this in her life, she's made her life about helping others to navigate it ... successfully.

She's taking her life experience from that School of Hard Knocks & dove-tailing it with her professional lived experience in the military, as a mother, as a businessperson & with her forthcoming Masters in Adult Education to teach others how to overcome. Listen to & learn vicariously from her wisdom in this conversation.

Lymphedema, the chronic backup of lymphatic fluid in the body, affects 5 million Americans every year. But most people live with this painful & life-impacting condition for 2-3 years before getting the right diagnosis. Dr. Amira Mohammad of Lymphira, Inc. is stopping the gap.

Not only does her Merrillville-based clinic specialize in treating Lymphedema & educating patients, her non-profit organization also helps to provide FREE testing & even distribute compression socks (an important aide in treatment) to the underserved or underinsured. YOU can support the cause at the upcoming 5K Lymphedema Walk on Oct. 6.

Phone or text the clinic with Qs at 219-501-1856.

Do you know the #truth about #anxiety? This week's returning guest, Britta Neinast, shares some pearls of wisdom she has learned in her years as a therapist & coach, including:

- Anxiety is unexpressed fear

- Fear = feeling unsafe- 3 ways anxiety expresses are through resistance, overwhelm & confusion

"Where do we take our emotions, if not online?"

You're finding this info. online, through your favorite device portal, & even on social media. You may even listen to our conversation in podcast format—also online/through tech. To preach against the very channels that connect us to our listeners would be absurd. Therefore, this conversation brings ALL of this to the table.

We speak with Maggie Moore—our returning guest, who previously told us all about "Shaking Our Chakras"—about how we adults can limit our screen time, just as we encourage our children. She asks the question above, as well as:

"How do you get out of your to-do list & into your body?"

And: "If cell phones are the new cigarettes, how do you filter out the junk?"

After 20 years as a healing movement practitioner, as well as a custom crystal jewelry-maker, empath & guide, Maggie has developed ways to anchor herself & others with talismans, rituals & presence. Listen to all of this & more now. TUNE IN!

Hello, Tune In listeners!

If you know us from Valpariso's WVLP-LP 103.1 FM, you already know this week's distinguished guest Larry A Brechner (a.k.a. LAB). He's an established broadcast expert with decades of experience in TV, radio & theater, both behind the scenes & as a voice-over talent & director. He's also an artist/photographer, & blends these passions as the co-host of WVLP's show Art On The Air, along with Ester Golden, where they feature local & even well-known national & international artists of every genre & medium. His work has been Emmy award-winning. And he's even a lifetime voter for the Grammys.

We talk with Larry about some of his favorite anecdotes through his life of marrying art with tech. And we learn how & why, as a director, he aimed to shy away from the overbearing forms of direction & preferred instead the practices of soft, or fluid, blocking, as well as his secret sauce of "lifting people's spirits to the task."

See you later, meditators!

(In addition to the above links, you can find Larry at Brech.com.)

In this episode, we also mention the podcast Sleep Now by my friend & former guest Melina Stock. Hear our conversation with Melina, too!
