JOURNEY OF HOPE WITH RODNEY MATHERS (mathersrodney@yahoo.com)
Society & Culture
Hello Everyone!
Finally, we're back!
My first guest of the new year is John Kennedy. John has worked with the Marines in the context of PTSD and when I was first corresponding with John about appearing on the show, it was the PTSD that jumped out at me. Any time I see a potential guest that has worked with individuals suffering from PTSD it peaks my intrest.
Here's why:
It is my belief that in some cases, released offenders can have mild to serious PTSD. Some people that are incarcerated in prison (not county jail....PRISON) are intermingling with persons of the same street mentality they left prior to prison. There are other individuals that prior to prison had been in professional careers, are college educated, and had never been in trouble before. This is much more common than the general public realizes.
It is these individuals I think will benefit from John Kennedy's techniques. These individuals are not wise to ways of "the street". They spend each day of their incarceration trying not to show the weaknesses that WILL result trouble. The courtesies of professionalism don't translate to prison culture. These individuals suffer from PTSD after release in my view. If you have to worry about your personal safety every day for years while coming from a sheleterd background, I really don't see how anyone can argue this point.
John's technique adresses this and other conditions by physically changing the brain to be more efficient at the processing level.
