2022-08-0927 minMoney Life with Chuck JaffeFairlead's Stockton: The war isn't why the market is range boundKatie Stockton, founder at Fairlead Strategies, says the market appears to be in a long-term trading range for 2022, not because of the geopolitical concerns over war in Ukraine or the worrisome inflation numbers or pressure on interest rates at home, but instead based on technical reasons which show that the major indexes have lost upside momentum and will struggle to get it back. In the Big Interview, Scott Knapp, chief market strategist for CUNA Mutual Group, says that the conflict in Ukraine has changed the headlines, but it shouldn't have changed portfolios much because economic struggles were easy to f...

Windhorse Journal PodcastRecovery is possible, no matter how disturbed a mind has becomeDear Listeners, In this podcast, four long-time Windhorse practitioners discuss the 4th (and last) principle of recovery: "No matter how disturbed a mind has become, recovery is possible." Gabrielle Bershen, Jack Gipple, and I (Marta Aarli) share our insights and experiences of working for over 20 years on Windhorse teams, with host and moderator, Chuck Knapp. The conversation touches on the loss of connection with self, others, and the world—and the unique path each person walks to reclaim and reintegrate those parts of themselves that are innate but covered over by confusion. Each team works to recognize th...

Windhorse Journal PodcastRecovery is the path of discovering one's own health and sanityDear Listeners, Anyone who's considered the territory of recovery from extreme mental states knows this to be a vast and subtle topic. And if this is a concern of yours, it's also critical to reasonably understand—otherwise you may not recognize some of the key patterns as they're occurring. This podcast is the third in a four-part series. Senior Windhorse clinicians Gabrielle Bershen, Marta Aarli, and I (Jack Gipple)—along with our colleague and host, Chuck Knapp—take a deeper dive into the Windhorse assertion that "Recovery is the path of discovering and synchronizing with one's...

Chuck Knapp and I recently hosted this discussion with Phoebe Walker, Cat Sargent, and Elise White. Phoebe, Cat, and Elise have each received extensive training in Dialogical Process while working as clinicians with Windhorse Integrative Mental Health, Northampton, MA. They and others...

Windhorse Journal PodcastThe Space Between: Opening Ourselves to Inclusion – Part 2Dear Listeners, Welcome to the continuation of a conversation about Inclusion, moderated by Chuck Knapp. Participants Sorin Thomas, Anne Marie DiGiacomo, and Polly Banerjee Gallagher go deeper into the question of how and why some ways of being get marginalized. In a particularly poignant shift, they each address having internalized messages about aspects of their own identities as inferior, and how that can lead to unintentionally inflicting harm on oneself. Also, they consider how some identities get overemphasized for their difference while others are erased—both forms of disregard for the uniqueness of each person's experience. Finally, Sor...

Windhorse Journal PodcastThe Space Between: Opening Ourselves to InclusionDear Listeners, Welcome to a conversation about Inclusion, moderated by Chuck Knapp. Participants Sorin Thomas, Anne Marie DiGiacomo, and Polly Banerjee Gallagher consider the fears and faulty premises that lead us to value some identities and marginalize others. Binaries blind us to the range of human experience, causing needless suffering to those who don't fit in the narrow band of acceptability. Windhorse's contemplative roots remind us that what seems real or solid is illusory. In our work, we engage with people whose states of mind have been deemed pathological. A more expansive view allows us to acknowledge...

Windhorse Journal PodcastTaking Care in Pandemic Part twoDear Listeners, We are fast approaching six months since Windhorse Community Services altered the ways we function in our day to day lives due to COVID-19. The podcast Rinpoche recorded with myself, Jack Gipple, and Chuck Knapp as the moderator on March 13, 2020 remains not only relevant, but also crucial to take to heart. The first part (054) was offered by The Journal on March 20, 2020 where Rinpoche addressed our growing fears of the unknown virus with a tenderness and compassion toward ourselves and others. In part 2 of our conversation, Rinpoche offers his heart advice on how to...

Windhorse Journal PodcastWindhorse Leadership: Seeking Health, Sanity and Balance during COVID 19 pt. 2Dear Listeners, This week, we return to part two of the discussion published on May 16th, Lungta in the Time of Corona: Leadership During a Crisis. This recording took place on the first of May, 2020. That day I sat in my kitchen, about a month into this new "sanitized and separated" way of life, and pondered if my mountain internet was functioning enough to record a "Zoom podcast." Nonetheless, I quickly became absorbed by this conversation that gracefully discusses the layers of vulnerability as we navigate the COVID-19 pandemic: a consistent, invisible force, spreading throughout every aspect of life. Thi...

Ignore the BellBetter Call Saul - Season Two | Ignore the Bell #47Nathan and Tyler continue their discussion of Better Call Saul, this time tackling season two, and what a season it is! The inflatable episode is one of the best, most enjoyable things put to screen, but you also get Jimmy's quick-thinking, improvisational nature at work. Kim's struggle with how close her association with Jimmy should be continues to escalate as she leaves HHM and takes on solo practice, only to be undercut by Chuck stealing her biggest client back.
Once again, no negatives to talk about for this season!

Windhorse Journal PodcastLungta in the Time of Corona: Leadership During a CrisisIt has been 8 weeks since we began responding as an organization to the threat of COVID-19, with significant alterations to how we go about our work. At that time, an already-scheduled visit and podcast recording with Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche proved to be auspicious. As a valued spiritual teacher, Rinpoche provided welcome words of inspiration and guidance on working with our worried minds while making practical decisions to ensure safety. (See Windhorse Journal entry #054 – "Taking Care in Pandemic: Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche's Reflections on our Mental Priorities".) Indeed, what can be drawn upon is one's life force—called windhorse (Tibetan: lungta) in Shambh...

Windhorse Journal Podcast"Inseparable – A Second Principle"In one of our earliest Journal entries, 005, we introduced the existence of four principles as the core of the Windhorse approach. That entry focused on the first principle: the notion of Basic Sanity—and any mental health challenge as an overlay to that sanity. In our most recent entry, #022 – "Creating Environments of Sanity", Chuck Knapp brought us to the second principle: We are inseparable from our environment. Here, Chuck hosts fellow Windhorse psychotherapists and team supervisors Gabrielle Bershen, Marta Aarli, and Jack Gipple in a discussion about this principle… You might notice that this podcast is a bit longer than usua...

Windhorse Journal PodcastTaking "Faith" Apart – Part 1 of a dialogue with Elizabeth Mattis NamgyelBecause of our contemplative roots, we often seek out the wisdom of those who ardently pursue the spiritual path of Dharma (i.e. teachings of the Buddha) to provide inspiration for our work. This post features part 1 of a conversation about that word "faith"—the discomfort and misapprehension it gives rise to. Elizabeth is joined by Gretchen Kahre (Windhorse Senior Clinician, and Elizabeth's fellow student and close friend), and Chuck Knapp (Windhorse Co-Director). Besides allowing us to hear about Elizabeth's initiation and evolution as a student/teacher of the Dharma, the dialogue invites us to reconsider our understanding of fai...

We will be listening once again to his teachings on tsewa—a Tibetan term which most closely translates in English to "love."… If love is an aspect of life in which you find any value and in which you'd like to gain more clarity, you'll want to hear Rinpoche's gentle, open-hearted, and very practical guidance. And if you're listening from the perspective of someone interested in mental health, this is all about the radical mind...
