America Meditating Radio Show W/ Sister Jenna

June is Refugee Awareness Month and to tell us more about this important issue we have two special guests from the One Journey Movement, Vanda Berninger and Wendy Chan. In 1991, as a civil war broke out in Croatia, Vanda Berninger left her home country for Germany. In 1989, Wendy Chan immigrated to the United States, as a young girl from China, to unite with her extended family, many of whom had fled China as refugees to escape the civil war. Both Vanda and Wendy now live in the Washington DC area, and together, they are building a movement. With a diverse coalition of allies, they are raising awareness of the global refugee crisis, helping the public see the contributions and talents of refugees and displaced people. These efforts aim to celebrate diversity and combat the growing nativism and apathy towards a humanitarian crisis of historic scale. Compelled by their personal experiences and inspired by the United Nations TOGETHER Campaign, Vanda and Wendy launched the One Journey movement in September 201

Peter Guzzardi joins Sister Jenna to discuss his first book - Emeralds of Oz: Life Lessons from Over the Rainbow, about the wisdom to be found in the most-watched film of all time – The Wizard of Oz. Peter has identified nine large chunks of wisdom (Emeralds) and discovered that if you run through this circuit of Emeralds in the same order that Dorothy did, they have a magical effect. Whatever obstacles you’re facing suddenly look and feel very different, as you take on the same strength, resilience, equanimity, and ease that Dorothy found on her journey from helpless in Kansas to powerful in Oz. Peter is an independent editor and writer who has worked in publishing for more than forty years. Prominent books he has edited include Stephen Hawking’s A Brief History of Time, Deepak Chopra’s Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, Queen Noor’s Leap of Faith, Arianna Huffington’s Fanatics and Fools, and Paula Poundstone’s There’s Nothing in This Book That I Meant to Say.

Join Sister Jenna as she pays tribute to the International Day of Yoga. In 2014, the United Nations declared June 21st as the International Day of Yoga (IDY), just three months after India’s newly-elected Prime Minister Narendra Modi proposed the idea during his address to the U.N. General Assembly. The resolution adopted by the General Assembly garnered a record number of co-sponsors. Millions of people around the world are now celebrating the 5th Annual International Day of Yoga. The gift of the present day is that we have so many forms of support to choose from to take better care of ourselves. Ultimately, it’s about our own consciousness and what serves it best. One way of awakening consciousness is by chanting the Om Mantra. Sister Jenna invites you to chant the mantra and take the #OmChallenge. See this short video HERE To all citizens of the world, are you ready to chant your “OM” and find your own inner peace when you choose to lead? Take the Om Challenge for Inner Peace.  Share your video and rem

June is National PTSD Awareness Month. PTSD stands for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and it is the root cause of suicide and is considered one of the deadliest wounds of war for our veterans according to The Birdwell Foundation for PTSD. It is estimated that while we have slept comfortably in our beds, worked an 8-hour shift, safely returned home, eaten dinner with our family, and back to bed again, 22 veterans have committed suicide. Although the real number is higher: 22 is only the reported number as only 22 of 50 states report veteran suicide.

May is Mental Health Month. So, our guest today, Michelle Dickinson-Moravek will join us to discuss this important topic and more. When Michelle started writing her book Breaking Into My Life, she assumed that Part 3 would be about coming to terms with growing up as the daughter of a bipolar mother. After years of playing the role of child caregiver, writing her memoir launched Michelle on a journey of self-discovery that would prove surprisingly healing. Coming to terms, she realized, was no longer enough. She had to break into her own life, a quest that literally played out as she was writing the final pages. Michelle has worked in the pharmaceutical industry for over 18 years. She is currently an associate director at Johnson & Johnson and is proud to be amongst the leadership team of the company’s Mental Health Diplomat employee resource group.
