BBC Radio Scotland - Sunday Morning, with Tony Kearney

Which path to take in life and how literature can help children process emotions.

Choosing which path to take in life; language around disability; Peter Howson's latest exhibition & how literature can help children process difficult emotions.

Choosing the right path in life is not always straightforward - how do we decide what is best, and is there really a right or wrong path? Tony Kearney discusses this with life coach Shona MacPherson, and the Minister of Kingshill Parish Church of Scotland in Aberdeenshire, Stella Campbell. 

Lead singer of The Curse of Lono, Felix Bechtolsheimer, tells Tony how his latest song Krieger was inspired by his great-great uncle, who stood up against ‘brown shirts’ over their treatment of Jews during World War Two and ended up being killed in a concentration camp.

Reporter Anna Magnusson takes a trip to the rose garden in Govan’s Elder Park, to speak to  community councillor Annie Morgan and young garden volunteers who are going through a drug rehabilitation programme called Recovery Through Nature.
 
Writers Catherine Raynor and Natalie Ventilla who have created books aimed at teaching kids to self-regulate their emotions, discuss the power of literature to help children make sense of difficult emotions. 
 
Rosie Jones' new documentary explores the ableist slurs she receives on an almost daily basis. Music producer Sanjeev Mann, who was born with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, and theatre director Robert Softley-Gale, who has cerebral palsy, talk about how damaging inappropriate language can be and how language around disability has evolved. 
 
A new Netflix documentary "The Deepest Breath" focuses on competitive Free Diving. Edinburgh couple and free divers Samantha Rendall and Jack Blom give their thoughts on the documentary and the allure of the sport. 

Edinburgh-based figurative painter, David Martin, visits "When the Apple Ripens: Peter Howson at 65: A Retrospective," and looks at the impact that faith and being in a warzone has had on Howson's work.
