PRA Well-being: Emotional Wellness Part 1

Policy Research Associates is committed to the well-being and wellness of individuals with behavioral health conditions. To help spread information about the importance of the Eight Dimensions of Wellness in recovery, we created a podcast series to address each pillar of wellness. In this podcast, you’ll hear from Dr. Crystal Lee Brandow, Senior Project Associate at PRA and Betty Vreeland, as they talk about the importance of emotional wellness. Betty has her Master’s of Science in Nursing and is an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse. She’s also a registered yoga teacher, and practices yoga and meditation herself on a regular basis. On this podcast, Dr. Brandow questions Ms. Vreeland to get down to the basics of mindfulness. Ms. Vreeland details topics like Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy for adults with mental health conditions, and the connection between mindfulness and physical wellness.
