having a mental health disorder. You are not alone.

mental wellness. In addition to traditional treatments and techniques,
Energy Psychology Techniques such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Emotional

disorder and offer support and encouragement.
Karen
Muranko has personally experienced the extreme challenges one can
face living with Panic Disorder. She lived with the disorder for 20
years before she was diagnosed and an additional 10 years until she
was fortunate enough to meet a team of people who helped her achieve
recovery. Karen has been in recovery since June, 2002.
Karen speaks openly about
living with Panic Disorder and, more importantly, how much her life
has changed for the better being in recovery. Karen feels she has accomplished
her goal of being panic-free and enjoys the benefits of living without
the constant worries that can accompany Panic Disorder. She is a completely
different and happier Karen than she was before her recovery. She truly
likes the person she is today and wants to offer hope to those living
with panic or anxiety disorder believe that recovery and mental wellness
is achievable.
Karen offers Personalized
Anxiety Wellness Mentoring sessions to assist others in finding
their solutions to help achieve recovery. She is also directing and
producing her documentary “Putting a Face to Panic; Surviving
Anxiety Disorder.”

Karen Muranko, Anxiety Wellness Mentor
This week I will be sharing more of my story about living with Panic Disorder and my six year journey of recovery. By sharing my story I hope that just one listener is encouraged to Take Charge of Their Mental Health and begin their own journey of recovery
It is my belief that when a person finds their own team, techniques and proper therapy that they too can achieve mental wellness and peace of mind.
Michael Price has led an interestingly varied and inspiring life. He has enjoyed the benefits and experiences of several separate and diverse careers, each of which presented its own set of extreme challenges including: Professional Baseball Player, College Baseball Coach, Police Officer, Insurance Fraud Investigator, Private Investigator and Trainer / Teacher / Consultant
In each profession, Michael was the one that others came to for direction and advice. Early on, he discovered that he possessed the unique ability to identify the core issues of the vast majority of the situations people presented to him.
Over time this skill, coupled with his own personal drive to live up to his highest potential, led Michael to the development of “The Courage of Fearless Thinking.”
HOW “THE COURAGE OF FEARLESS THINKING” BEGAN. The seeds of “The Courage of Fearless Thinking” program took root when Michael was in high school. Over many years of hardship, experience, and study, those seeds began to germinate. During that time, Michael often worked with individuals endowed with very large egos, yet still did not live up to their potential. These were people who had terrific physical and mental talents yet strove to blame others for their own lack of achievement. They could have, and most definitely should have been leaders, but instead, were apathetic or to the extreme, bullies.
Tammi L. Morgan is the author of the book Emerging Butterfly: Finding Life Beyond Anxiety Disorders due to be released this summer of 2008. She writes from her own experiences as a fellow anxiety survivor of over twenty years. Because of her personal background with Agoraphobia and panic attacks she desires to reach out to others with anxiety disorders and let them know they are not alone and that hope and help is available. Most importantly she wants to encourage others to reach beneath the layers of anxiety and find again, or maybe for the first time, the unique and special person they are within. Her adage: “Anxiety is not who you are, it’s what you have”.

Guest, Joy Carroll, Healing Intuitive
Since 1994 Joy has helped people heal their bodies and align themselves on the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels so they are in harmony with their higher purpose. She uses a wide variety of techniques, but the unifying theme in all of her work is the conviction that the intelligence of nature always provides simple and natural ways to heal our bodies, minds, emotions, and spirits. She believes that the health of individuals, communities, and our planet can all be improved with common sense and respect for nature's simple and elegant wisdom. She believes in an intelligent, conscious and interactive world in which everything communicates for the purpose of a greater good and collective health. This means our own bodies can talk to us. This means our pets can talk to us. This means we can heal the planet if we can begin to heal ourselves.
