Love's Essence
The Positive Mind
08/14/22 • 56 min
Everything and everyone changes. What is revealed when the green leaves of summer turn so many varied colors? Each tree, each leaf, has specific traits to it. What if love's essence is an ability to see through the personality of our partner, to what is a completely unique constellation of traits that make them who they are. Kevin and Niseema explore the concept that it is this essence that delights us and makes us fall in love. Join us this week as we help you identify the traits of your partner that hint at their essence, and to also reflect on what they might see in you.

Home: It's a Feeling
The Positive Mind
10/30/22 • 57 min
The feeling of home is as universal as it is personal. Home can be a place of safety and refuge, or chaos and instability. No matter which, home is the place you identify with in some way, it carries meaning, memories and shapes your identity.
Homesickness is a powerful feeling that something just isn't right, coupled with a longing for things to be stable, predictable, familiar and safe. But, it is a fact of life that everybody has to leave home; how a person manages that stress can say a lot about their relationship with themselves and their ability to take a sense of "home" with them wherever they go.
Kevin and Niseema talk about how homesickness can lead to depression, a sense of being lost, rootless and adrift. It's the mysterious and universal feeling of home that seems to root us in our very being, providing a shelter for those days and times when all seems lost.

Post Traumatic Growth with Richard D. Smith Pt.1
The Positive Mind
09/07/20 • 56 min
Join us for our interview of Richard D. Smith, national speaker for the African American Community on mental health issues and intergenerational trauma.
Asking "what happened to you?" as opposed to "what's wrong with you?" is the beginning of understanding and diffusing aggressive behaviors, all of which are rooted in trauma response. When you stop and ask this question it can be an awakening to self-awareness. As a speaker, professor, community advocate and childhood trauma survivor Richard teaches us about the revolutionary act of self love.

In Part 1 of a 2 part series, Hosts discuss learned helplessness, a condition in which a person suffers from a sense of powerlessness. It can arise from traumatic events or consistent failure. Its considered an underlying cause of depression. Kevin and Niseema help untangle potential connections with pandemic fallout such as job loss and blaming oneself for being a bad employee.

What's Your Emotional Temperature?
The Positive Mind
07/20/20 • 57 min
Have you taken your emotional temperature lately? Are you finding spikes of anger or settling into a continuous state of feeling a "little of something" or nothing at all? Does it take you back to a time as a child when anger, frustration, sadness or fear were not allowed or dismissed?
As we start to look back at lifestyle changes and social upheavals from the last 6 months, we can see how we are operating at about 50% of our emotional level. It just seems to be the easiest place to be: flatten the curve, flatten the feelings.
Join Kevin and Niseema as guides to understanding why we blunt our inner selves and how to recharge our emotional engines this week on The Positive Mind Radio Show Podcast.
