On this episode of Wherever It Takes Us, we talk about some of the barriers that keep men from seeking out support for their mental health and emotional well-being.  In the US, men commit suicide, 4 times more than women. Why? What can we do to help before it gets to that point? This episode is re-aired, due to its relevance.

On this episode of Wherever It Takes Us, we talk about the life and impact of Buddhist Monk Thich Nhat Hanh. Affectionately called the “Father of Mindfulness”, Nhat Hanh (meaning, One Action) devoted his monastic life to helping people. Poet, author, peace activist, spiritual leader, Thich Nhat Hanh’s devotion to awakening consciousness as a means to create peace and joy, as well as, processing grief and suffering, on an individual level and collective global  level is truly inspirational.

The Film: Walk With Me

“Directed by Marc J Francis & Max Pugh, ‘Walk With Me’ is a cinematic and immersive exploration into the world-famous monastery of Zen Buddhist master Thich Nhat Hanh. 
 
As Benedict Cumberbatch’s meditative voice reads extracts from Thich Nhat Hanh’s early journals, the daily routine and rituals of monks and nuns on a quest to develop a deep sense of presence, slowly unfolds across the four seasons.
 
With unprecedented access, this visceral film is an insightful rumination on the pursuit of happiness, and what it means to devote one’s life to mindfulness and living in the present moment – a welcome remedy to the stresses of a world in turmoil.”

In this episode of Wherever It Takes Us,  we dive into cults. What is a cult, and how do people end up involved in cults?

Resources:
Cults: 

1.           Are they asking for your money?

2.           Are they asking for your body?

3.           Are you asked to break your own  sense of ethical conduct or integrity?

4.           Are there secrets?

5.           Is there blind faith- believe without being able to see for yourself?

6.           Are there dual standards? Where members are supposed to doing something except for the leader/ Guru/  and their inner circle.

7.           Are you forbidden or discouraged from hanging out with your old friends or family members?

8.           Is it humorless- takes themselves their ideology too seriously?

9.           Do you feel dependent?

10.      Is there confusion between power and wisdom/kindness?

11.      Does the quality give the sense of being amongst those that have been born again? 

12.      Fanaticism? This is the right and only way.

13.      This group is special and no one else will be saved or receive enlightenment.
