My Travel Story

by: Morgan Williamson Start Date: Apr 15, 2018 - End Date: Jul 13, 2018
I took part in another program through SLV in 2016 in Sri Lanka and it was the best experience of my life. And this new opportunity has ome about for me to go to India for two weeks to learn even more about mental health in other cultures. It would mean so much to me for you to spare any money you have to donate to this incredible expererience.

In partnership with National Institute of Mental Health and Neuroscience NIMHANS and the School of Ancient Wisdom, the program is facilitated by renowned clinical psychologists and psychiatrists, many of whom double as yogis, and are equally passionate about Ancient Eastern modalities, like mindfulness, Ayurveda and yoga. Through five actively informative and immersive days I'll be invited to explore, more closely, how ancient Eastern techniques can complement modern methods to treat mental health concerns, in both clinical and community settings.

I'll have the exclusive chance to tour the impressive NIMHANS facilities and enjoy an audience with many of its clinicians, who will speak on a variety of topics around how India treats mental health issues both medically and culturally.  I'll also visit the Neuropathology Brain Museum, where I can get up close and personal with the grey matter itself (brains), and participate in interactive workshops on topics ranging from meditation to multicultural perspectives in work with children and adolescents.
