    logo_mentalhealthawarenessweekSedona AZ (August 18, 2018) – Why is it that some people seem to manage adversity, trauma, tragedy and other sources of stress well while other individuals are overwhelmed by them and suffer physical, mental and emotional problems as they face these challenges?

    According to the American Psychological Association, “Resilience is the process of adapting well and ‘bouncing back” from difficult experiences. Research has shown that resilience is ordinary, not extraordinary. People commonly demonstrate resilience. One example is the response of many Americans to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and individuals’ efforts to rebuild their lives.Being resilient does not mean that a person doesn’t experience difficulty or distress. Emotional pain and sadness are common in people who have suffered major adversity or trauma in their lives. In fact, the road to resilience is likely to involve considerable emotional distress. Resilience is not a trait that people either have or do not have. It involves behaviors, thoughts and actions that can be learned and developed in anyone.”

    photo_alicealibrioResilience is the topic of Mental Health Monday on August 27, 10AM-11:30AM at Yavapai College, 4215 Arts Village Drive, Sedona. The program is free, open to the public and is a partnership with Osher Lifelong Leaning Institute.

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
