This is part 1 in a two part series this week dedicated to homelessness. In this episode we take a look at homelessness from a couple of perspectives.  Paul Caune founder of Civil Rights Now talks about how people with disabilities need to see themselves as voters so that they can ensure that the rights that they are entitled to are given to them in the political system.  Team members from the Youth Action Squad (YAS) which provides a youth perspective the the Greater Vancouver Shelter Strategy talk about their experience in dealing with homelessness.  John Pippus joins us to play some songs that are fitting for the situation.

In this weeks edition of ‘Art of the Mind’ we focus on the mind of the Modern Man.

So what’s on the mind of today’s modern men and what are some of the afflictions that are specific to us dudes.  We have Psychotherapist, Dr. Steven Lake from Executive Support Net in studio talk about this.  Dr. Steven tries to help answer the question; If you really want to be Rich can you still have a functional family?

We also look at the serious issue of Post Tramautic Stress Disorder, and its affects on those in the military and RCMP, an issue that is not solely attributable to men.  Dr. Nancy Prober from the Operational Stress and Injury Clinic also joins us to talk about PTSD, what it looks like and what the treatments are with this condition.

To provide some musical interlude we have singer songwriter John Pippus and the local group Illiteratty.  Archived episode below, takes a moment to load.

Part 2 (30 mins)


In this episode, Sound Therapy explores issues on Spirituality. As we are exposed to different methods of aligning our chakras, chi, spirit and mojo, the information on these practices can get terribly overwhelming. In the first part of the episode we will be speaking with Alexandra Amor, a woman whose spiritual longings led her into the oppressive world of a BC cult. Part 2 we speak with Marja Bergen, founder of the Christian based mental/spiritual health group Living Room Support.

In studio playing live is singer/songwriter John Pippus.  John is based in Vancouver and creator of the critically acclaimed play Oh Winnipeg.  The production was a pick of the Fringe at the 2009 Vancouver Fringe Festival.

Part 2: Marja Bergen, Living Room Support

Often times mental health issues are dangerously mistaken as a spiritual crisis. Many spiritual leaders are misinformed about the biological and social issues around mental health and this ignorance prevents individuals suffering certain conditions from getting the vital help they need. We speak with Marja Bergen, founder and facilitator of Living Room Support whose faith based support group gives Christians dealing with mental health issues a safe environment to self-manage their condition in balance with their faith.
