There Is Really Only One Mental Illness Jun 19, 2023

Show notes

Chronic mental stress is creating an epidemic of mental illness and that makes perfect sense because it is the mental illness. It's completely understandable that so many of us are suffering with chronic mental stress and it's also completely unnecessary.

What It Really Means To Live In The Moment Jun 13, 2023

Show notes

We have really come to appreciate that living in the moment creates a more enjoyable experience of life than living in the past or the future. But what does it really mean? What is really happening? Why does making an effort to "be present" have an impact on our experience and how would truly understanding what's going on have that impact be profoundly simple? That's today's conversation.

Why You Don't Need to Process Everything Jun 05, 2023

Everyone Is Doing the Best They Can Given Their Current Level of Understanding May 30, 2023

Show notes

People often have real resistance to believing that everyone is doing the best they can. But we/they are. It's called Psychological Innocence. We, and I mean all of us, can only live from our level of understanding at any given moment. Low level of understanding=pretty unpleasant experience of life. The cost of living disconnected from understanding can be really high. From brutal relationships to bad health and constant conflict and challenge, living from a low level of understanding can be extraordinarily expensive. Good news is that it's not that difficult to shift.

We all want to feel better.

Let Go of What Others Think-Free Yourself from Judgment Apr 03, 2023

Show notes

We worry and obsess over what people think about us. Of course we do. It's the natural go-to move of our identities. We judge ourselves constantly. We worry about others judging us. None of it is necessary or helpful to our experience of life. How do we get it to stop, or at least become less of a source of suffering? It's easy, actually.

I Can't Change. Absolutely Untrue. I Can Change and So Can You Mar 22, 2023

Show notes

The biggest barrier to experiencing pure emotional and mental freedom is the inability to comprehend that it's possible. It is possible. For all of us. Here are a few simple stories of how change occurred for people I've worked with and the value of that change in their experience of life.

The Gift of Rejection Jan 11, 2023
