Earlier this year, JWB’s Executive Director, Dr. Cassandra Vieten, delivered a groundbreaking TEDx Talk in San Diego, CA.
“Let’s build a world that supports true mental health. The mental healthcare of the future…”
The future of mental health is here. From indigenous wisdom practices to mind-body science to psychedelics to virtual reality, a vast array of mental health enhancing practices are emerging and converging, promising to empower people with entirely new potentials for enhancing mental and emotional wellness. Find out what’s going on in the new mental health, and how you can immediately apply it to your life in the newly released TEDx talk by Dr. Cassandra Vieten, Executive Director of the John W. Brick Mental Health Foundation.
Everyone knows we are in a mental health crisis. What people don’t always hear is that we are in the beginning of a mental health renaissance. It’s a new day for mental health care, and along with our colleagues worldwide, the JWB is empowering families and communities with practices that can be integrated into their everyday lives. Dr. Vieten introduces the general public to a variety of mental health and well-being enhancing approaches during this groundbreaking talk.
