Adults
Learning never stops at Beth Tzedec. Today’s adults have a thirst for learning, for connecting with the community and being part of it. Beth Tzedec’s programs are rich in substance. Thanks to the informed and engaging efforts of our Clergy, guest lecturers and academics from around the world, film critics, book reviewers and our own members, the thirst can be quenched. Experience the excitement of gaining a new understanding of an old text and share insights from artists and authors. From Scholars’ weekends to evening presentations, lose yourself in enlightening lectures and discussion. Come and learn. It’s all here.
Sick is not Weak: Discussing Mental Illness
with Michael Landsberg
Michael Landsberg shares his experiences with mental illness
TSN's Michael Landsberg has always been a polarizing broadcaster. People either enjoy his 'confidence' or dislike his 'arrogance'. That changed five years ago with his on-air announcement that he suffers from an anxiety disorder and depression. While people might still think he is pushy, they respect his honesty and candour in facing and discussing mental illness. Join us as Michael shares his experiences and offers a better understanding of this often misunderstood illness.
Michael Landsberg, a Canadian sports television personality, is hot of TSN's Off the Record. Diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder and depression, he was featured in Vista Magazine discussing his illness, and produced and hosted the candid and raw documentary "Darkness and Hope: Depression, Sports and Me" for CTV.
