How can we change that pattern?You can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

If you or a loved one are struggling with mental health, contact the crisis hotline at 9-8-8Host: Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram NanneyTopic: Men and women suffer from mental health conditions at similar rates. Four out of five people who die by suicide are men. Celebrities like Dwayne Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, and many others have talked publicly about their struggles with anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts. We all have likely had someone suffer and perhaps die due to mental health struggles. Yet, countless men still experience difficulty with even using the words “mental health” in relation to how they feel. Let alone seek help. Today we’ll be focusing on men’s mental health, and we’ll talk about what we have been doing wrong to address it.You can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org.

But did you know what to do, how to help, or what to say? Many of us are often so unsure of what to do or say that we do and say nothing. But we know research has shown that women with strong social supports have better survival rates. Today on the show we welcome two amazing women who are breast cancer survivors. They'll help us better understand what we can do and say to be the support that we all need when facing such a difficult diagnosis.Guet(s): Cindy Mansour, and Debbie LivingstonYou can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org.

The ‘everyday hero’ gene is found inside of everyone, everywhere and is waiting for the right moment to be turned on. It is expressed in simple, ordinary actions of kindness, courage, and love. A hero sacrifices for the greater good and shows true empathy and compassion. So today on Relatively Speaking we discussed heroes, what a hero looks like and how can you be a hero in your own community. We also spoke with callers who shared personal stories of heroes in their lives. Tips on how to be a "Hero"Let go of your egoA real hero knows that their actions might go unnoticed, and that’s okay. Make sure that you are trying to be a hero for the right reasons. You need to be willing to help people who might not even know you have intervened on their behalf. You have to be focused more on the feeling you get from doing the good deed than receiving praise.Initiate the change you want to seeA true hero isn’t all talk. A true hero is constantly thinking about how they can take action and help others. You may be inspired to be a hero for a certain cause or issue, or you may try to be a hero for someone in need.Put others before yourselfThink about other people needs before considering your own. Consider what others want in addition to what makes you happy.Be ready to act when others are passivePeople lead busy lives. Often a typical person is so focused on themselves, they don’t notice or care to act when something is wrong. A hero will be willing to take action and confront injustice straight on. Stick up for a friend, classmate, or coworker you feel is being treated unfairly. Buy a meal for the homeless person everyone keeps walking by on the street. Notice the underdog or the less fortunate and give them a helping hand. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Do you ever come across people who are always upbeat and no matter what life throws at them, they just seem to roll with the punches? Well, it’s quite possible they’re following a formula for happiness. Join us today as we take a look at "Happiness Happens Month", a month dedicated to celebrating what makes you happy. We'll also discuss what "happiness" is and how to increase your own happiness and others around you. 10 Things That Can Help Make You Happier and Enjoy Life MoreStart with a Good Dose of GratitudeBeing consciously aware of what you’re thankful for can actually change your level of happiness.Make Sure You’re Giving BackNational Institutes of Health found that when people give to charities, it activates regions of the brain associated with pleasure, social connection, and trust, creating a “warm glow” effect. Scientists also believe that altruistic behavior releases endorphins in the brain, producing the positive feeling known as the “helper’s high.”Laugh Every Day When you laugh, you release a happy hormone called Oxycontin. It’s a hormone that uplifts us as we share experiences with others. Even just making yourself smile will put you in a better place.Foster Good Relationships with Family and FriendsBy spending time with people you like, you forge supportive relationships that help you in times of stress.You also bond with others through common experiences, such as life’s ups and downs. They become your support network.People who don’t spend as much time with family or friends are more prone to loneliness and depression.Take Some Alone TimeIn contrast to spending time with family and friends, it’s important to step back and take some time for yourself, by yourself.You can recharge your spirit and find a little peace in a little bit of silence. Taking some time away and being alone can do wonders for your mood and outlook.Volunteer Your TimeWhen you give of yourself, either by time or talent, your focus shifts from your life to that of others.This can help you realize that your own problems may not be that bad. You invariably forge new relationships and experience an uplift in your spirit.Get Enough ExerciseHumans were made to move around and the body works best when it does what it was meant to do.When you take some time to exert yourself, you reduce your stress levels.Deal With ClutterWhen you’re not running around looking for items you can’t find, when everything has its place, you’ll automatically be less stressed and in a better mental state.Tackle a small task each day for a month in an effort to de-clutter your life.Avoid RegretsWe all make mistakes in life–that’s part of the human condition. The key is to forgive yourself and others, learn from the mistakes and move on.Don’t Compare Yourself To Others“Comparison is the thief of joy.” — Theodore RooseveltThis is definitely easier said than done, but if you can condition your mind to focus on the good that you are doing and the good things in your life, you’re not going to be tempted to focus on how others are doing.
