Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how you can improving teaching method to help improving the mental health of your students (step-by-step).

In fact, in this video, I’m going to share with you an area of professional development for teachers that shouldn’t be ignored.

With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:

Mental health is a topic that’s gaining more attention in society. It’s much needed and long overdue attention. The alarming statistics around youth suicide paint a bleak picture for the United States. Schools are trying to address it and teach students how to be mentally well. But it’s also important that you as a teacher or administrator focuses on your mental wellness as well. When you do, you inspire your students to follow in your behavior.

I was that kid in your class that’s always causing you a headache. The one that is constantly acting up and crossing the line. I had mental health challenges, was expelled from multiple schools, hospitalized for my mental health, and even attempted suicide. It’s a good reminder that you never really know what’s going on behind the scenes.

When I do professional development for teacher workshops, I share my personal story so you can see what’s behind the behavior. This can give you a new perspective for interacting with and helping your students going forward.

It’s also important that you address your own mental health. Teaching is a stressful position and one that requires you to have a lot of self-awareness when interacting with your students and coworkers. My sessions address all of this.

In short, this video will show you actionable ways that you and your school can be helped by a professional development session on mental health in 2019.

Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how to diversity and inclusion are influenced by mental health.

In fact, in this video, I’m going to explain why I think that mental health should be addressed as the foundation of diversity and inclusion efforts in the workplace.

With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:

Diversity and Inclusion is a popular topic that’s frequently making headlines. Companies are doing their best with diversity and inclusion training to address things like stereotypes and biases in order to make sure everyone feels included and supported.

But I would argue that something is still missing and that thing is addressing the mental health of those in the workplace. I believe that mental health is the forgotten part of D&I. And to really succeed with diversity and inclusion best practices, we need to make mental health awareness the base of it. Here’s why:

People challenges and mental health challenges go hand-in-hand
Delegation efforts are impacted by your mental health and unknown biases
Addressing your mental health helps you become more self-aware which is a key to fixing diversity and inclusion in the workplace
Fear of offending others can stem from stereotypes and biases we don’t realize that we have

There is a mistaken belief that therapists are just for those struggling with a diagnosed mental health disorder. In reality, a therapist can help in many ways as I discuss in the video.

Mental health impacts both productivity and profitability. Making sure that your people are emotionally well will go a long way in helping you get your diversity and inclusion efforts off the ground.

In short, this video will give you a few actionable ways that you can address mental health to improve D&I efforts.

Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY what I do to help maintain my emotional sobriety.

Sobriety is something that makes most people think about alcohol, so what is emotional sobriety? If being sober is not having any alcohol does emotional sobriety mean not having any emotions?

What does emotional sobriety mean?

Emotional sobriety is a part of emotional wellness. It doesn’t mean that you don’t have any emotions, it means that you learn how to handle and cope with the difficult emotions that people experience that they may try to cover with alcohol or drug use. Emotional sobriety is all about learning how to handle your emotions in a healthy way.

Everyone experiences negative emotions. Things like hurt, anger, disappointment, and guilt are unfortunately a part of life. And, that’s why it’s so important to learn how to recognize and address those emotions and feelings instead of turning to things like drugs, alcohol, shopping, gambling, or other escape behaviors.

It’s important to learn how to be more comfortable with the uncomfortable emotions that a part of life. In this video, I share something I do on a daily basis that helps me show up for my emotions every day. This allows me to be a more mentally healthy person for myself and others.

In short, this video I share with you one thing you can do every day to maintain emotional sobriety.

Today you’re going to learn the ONE THING you should be focused on as a caregiver or healthcare worker before anything else.

In fact, in this video, I share with you the one question you should be asking yourself on a regular basis.

With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:

I’ve struggled with mental health challenges for as long as I can remember. That’s why I work as a mental health speaker and healthcare speaker and writer to help end the stigma that surrounds mental health. My life’s all about helping others. As a healthcare worker or caregiver, this is something that you understand. You probably got into the work that you do for the exact same reason – you want to help and care for others.

But it’s easy to get so focused on caring for others that you forget to care for yourself. There is a misconception that it’s selfish to put yourself first, but as I explain in this video, that’s not the case.

Putting yourself first helps you to show up better for those that you are serving. If you want to be an expert patient caregiver, it’s necessary to take care of yourself. When you are burnt out, you aren’t able to offer those you care for the same level of care. Taking care of yourself first is one of the most selfless things that you can do.

This is the message that needs to be spread around the healthcare industry and that’s one reason I find the work I do as a health speaker so rewarding. It’s what motivates me to take care of myself so I can better serve my audience working with healthcare in the speakers’ bureau, as a pharmaceutical speaker, or speaking for any other healthcare event.

In short, this video will show you why you need to put yourself and one step you can take to make that happen.

Mental health in the workplace training by Mike Veny will you improve your productivity, team performance and company profits. There are a variety of mental health in the workplace training programs, yet none compare to the results that Mike’s deliver.

Mental health in the workplace is becoming an increasingly popular topic because of employee burnout and remote working. This is an introduction to the mental health in the workplace videos that Mike Veny offers.

With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:

When it comes to workplace mental health awareness, many employees simply don’t identify with the term “mental health”. They think of it as being something that only applies to those that have been diagnosed with a mental health disorder.

But, mental health is also about something that everyone can identify with – STRESS.

If you have stress, it can lead to mental health issues in the workplace. And, if you have already have mental health challenges, stress can make it even worse. There are employees being disciplined at work for performance issues that are actually struggling with much larger problems at the root of their behavior. That’s why we need to help improve workplace mental health. To do that, there are three workplace strategies for mental health that Mike discusses:

* Cultivate a culture of self-care.
* Learn how to have mental health conversations in the workplace.
* Put systems and resources in place to support employee wellness

This is how you can start to address workplace mental health awareness and improve mental health at work. That’s how you transform stigma in the workplace, which ultimately leads to mental health safety in the workplace.

Workplace a mental health awareness is a small investment that offers a huge return!

Today you’re going to learn about a school event that I attended and spoke at as a school mental health speaker.

With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:

As a mental health speaker for schools, I am honored every time I’m invited into a school and community to share my experience of growing up with mental health challenges. I fully support when a school is willing to allow students to skip out on things like math and science for a day or two in order to address the deeper issues and challenges that they are facing like anxiety and depression.

When working as a mental health speaker for high school or youth mental health speaker, I share the personal stories from my own life. This includes things like being expelled from three schools, being admitted to a mental hospital for multiple extended stays, self-harm, and attempting to take my own life at the age of 10. These are the issues that youth are facing and the ones that need to be addressed as a school mental health speaker.

And, it’s not just a school issue. Mental health in schools is best addressed by involving and educating the entire community. As you will see in this video, the students understand the importance of addressing these issues as well.

In short, this video will show you actionable ways that you can address mental health in your school in 2019.

We plan to continue to build our relationship with Mike and utilize his skills for future programs. I was impressed with his genuineness, ability to understand and engage our audience, enthusiasm, knowledge on a variety of subjects, and his willingness to visit and interact with attendees outside of his scheduled presentation slots..”

In addition, here’s what some attendees have had to say about Mike:

Conference Attendee – “ I Love Mike Veny! He is wonderful and engaging and funny. He is great at explaining networking and relationships. He should be here every year. I love his energy and his drum circle. He inspires me!!!!”
