Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how you can overcome challenges in your mental health.
In fact, in this video, you will hear author and speaker Vikie Shanks share some of her own personal story with mental health along with how she was able to overcome obstacles that life brought her way.
Here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
Vikie has been through many trials throughout her life. She was sexually abused as a child, lost her mother at sixteen years old, suffered a mental breakdown at nineteen, had a husband who struggled with mental health and eventually committed suicide, and has helped her seven children cope with struggles from cerebral palsy and autism to eating disorders and depression.
Yet she has remained optimistic through it all. Her ability to overcome adversity makes her an inspiration we can all learn from. Sometimes when overcoming challenges we have to focus on one minute at a time. One of the tips that Vikie explains during our conversation is the importance of finding the thing or person that is your motivation to keep going.
She draws from her own experience to empathize with others in their trials. She also offers up some sound advice throughout our conversation that’s beneficial for anyone in the midst of a mental health struggle. And having been on both sides – being through trials and helping others through them – she has some wise words about being honest with those who are supporting you, both when you are doing well and when you aren’t.
In short, this video will show you actionable ways to overcome challenges in 2019.

http://www.transformingstigma.com/book-mike-veny#feelings Putnam Northern-Westchester BOCES Arts in Education Program – Enjoy this video of the students in Croton-on-Hudsons’s Carrie E. Tompkins Elementary School drumming with Toca Percussion artist, Mike Veny. For 3 weeks each student in CET, from kindergarten through the fourth grade participated in a hands on workshop with Mike Veny as part of the music class with music teacher, Marlena Peters.
This program wouldn’t have been possible without the support of the Carrie E. Tompkins Elementary School Parent Teachers Association, music teacher Marlena Peters, principal Kelly Maloney, Putnam Westchester BOCES,Toca Percussion, and most importantly, the CET students! As a special thank you to the CET PTA, Mike hosted a free drum circle event exclusively for the parents.
In addition to rhythms, games, history, education, Mike brings the 3 B’s to Unleash Your Groove™ into every classroom: Belong, Bonding, and Believing. Every student wants to feel that they belong. Once they feel like they belong, they are open to bond with one one another. After they learn to bond, they will automatically believe in themselves more, and the group as a whole.
Mike Veny’s Unleash Your Groove™ drumming program can be brought to any school in New York State through BOCES (Board of Cooperative Educational Services). This includes BOCES programs in Capital Region, Cattaraugus-Allegany-Erie-Wyoming, Cayuga-Onondaga, Champlain Valley Educational Services, Delaware-Chenango-Madison-Otsego, Dutchess, Erie 1, Erie 2 Chautauqua-Cattaraugus, Franklin-Essex-Hamilton, Genesee Valley Educational Partnership, Hamilton-Fulton-Montgomery, Herkimer-Fulton-Hamilton-Otsego, Jefferson-Lewis-Hamilton-Herkimer-Oneida, Madison-Oneida, Monroe #1, Monroe 2 Nassau, Oneida-Herkimer-Madison, Onondaga-Cortland-Madison, Orange-Ulster, Orleans-Niagara, Oswego, Otsego-Delaware-Schoharie-Greene, Putnam-Northern Westchester, Questar III, Rockland, St. Lawrence-Lewis, Schuyler-Chemung-Tioga (Greater Southern Tier), Steuben-Allegany (Greater Southern Tier), Eastern Suffolk, Western Suffolk, Sullivan, Tompkins-Seneca-Tioga, Ulster, Washington-Saratoga-Warren-Hamilton-Essex, Wayne-Finger Lakes and Southern Westchester.
