Shift Happens...Cultivating Calm Amidst Great Change
Hi! We are Cori Gracheck and Jenna Cotton, two psychotherapists in practice in Philadelphia, PA. who are privileged to work with wonderful people in our practice. We noticed trends in the issues that come up in sessions and thought that others might also benefit from hearing about the tools we use with our clients to manage these issues. So we decided to do a YouTube show/Podcast. The first series is focused on managing life in the pandemic, cultivating the tools for calm amidst great change. Each episode begins with a short meditation, then we cover a psycho-social topic (such as managing space, emotions, media during the pandemic, how to be in service to the Black community and people of color) and then end with the same meditation. The meditation is short and can also double as a mindfulness break tool to be used throughout your day and is appropriate for beginner through advanced meditators. We both practice and teach meditation and it is one of the central tools that we use with our clients.

Episode 4
Hello! Welcome to Shift Happens...
This episode is about developing ways to manage news and incoming information, so that you can feel informed without feeling inundated. During a time when we feel as if we need to be constantly plugged into social media and the news in order to stay safe, combined with our ability to access news on a 24 hour cycle with the touch of a button, many of us are feeling incredibly overwhelmed by the constant flow of information.
