We talk about the power of myth and the Hero's Journey (Joseph Campbell), and discuss a few authors you may want to look up including Richard Rohr, and "The Queen Who Saved Herself" by Fiona J.

Winter and Mental Health

Winter is upon us! And for those of us with mental illness, or who have a spouse with anxiety, depression, or any other mental illness, this is a tough time of year. We need to fortify ourselves with every tool in our belt to help us get through this time without becoming depressed ourselves. I share some things that work for me, and I also introduce the new patreon account for the podcast at patreon.com/mentalhealthmarriage. You can also find me and friend me on Facebook by searching for Em Kacey, or e-mail me at [email protected].
