How childhood trauma can affect mental and physical health into adulthood
"But not all hope is lost. Research strongly suggests that humans have an innate capacity to adapt and positively transform, even after traumatic and stressful events. Most importantly, positive, supportive and healthful activities can contribute to positive well-being among adult survivors of childhood adversity. Change has to start with ourselves first, so we can provide children with the safety, support, love, and protection they need."

Many beliefs are actually not often freely chosen. Much of them fly under our radar. They feel hardwired into us. But if the building block of beliefs are actually thoughts/opinions, is there hope for changing the undesirable outcomes we find ourselves and our loved ones up against?

I Wish I Said This To Avicii May 24, 2018

This month we have been focusing on sensations that typically accompany depression, particularly suicidal thoughts.

In this candid episode, Amy invites listeners to explore a broader perspective on this issue: one that affects everyone's life , whether they have grappled with depression before or not.

In this episode you will explore:

-The stigma around suicide: is it really a choice like we've been led to believe?

-Links between childhood experiences and the likelihood to experience depression

-Practical steps we can begin to take in our own lives to prevent suicide and heal depression

Note: There is no guarantee this conversation would have made a difference for Avicii. We will never know. Hopefully, it sparks a fire and curiosity within you.

Introspection is NOT As Important As You Think (In fact, it can be harmful) (Part 2) Apr 05, 2018

Today we explore just one of many studies conducted by people like Anthony M. Grant, Tasha Eurich, Tim Wilson, and Emily Pronin, which points to the fact that introspection is not the act of tapping into our deepest selves, rather it is a fabrication, a grand lie constructed by our brains in order to keep the story (it previously created) of "who we are" consistent.

Tune in to see what you can do instead of engaging in traditional introspection and asking "Why?".

Introspection is NOT As Important As You Think (In fact, it can be harmful) Mar 30, 2018

If you are like me, you have been exposed to the idea that self-reflection (ie. introspection) allows us to better understand ourselves and therefore, better control our emotions and manage our behaviors.

(And when you are feeling down for days, this sounds like a much welcome solution!)

But before you run off to write in a journal or call a friend to share all the reasons why you have been feeling so blue, tune into today's episode.

1 Simple Emotional Mistake We All Make (And What To Do About It) Mar 22, 2018

Ever been told you need to "vent" your feelings? That it is unhealthy to bottle up your emotions?

Tune into today's episode for another segment of what we should have learned in school: -venting emotions doesn't release angry feelings -the idea of bottling up emotions and needing to release them only sustains feelings of anger and sadness -even crying isn't always therapeutic

Basically, the whole notion of catharsis is mostly crapola: ie. not real, not true. Learn what processes you can put your attention on instead.

Sources: More about how venting anger doesn't work: https://youarenotsosmart.com/2010/08/11/catharsis/ http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0146167202289002 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10101875

In Memory of Kelly Monsrud Dec 18, 2017

Tune in for inspiring life story of one of the founders of this podcast series, originally recorded in October.

Kelly was a person who once described himself as "living life dead." He grappled with many of the problems us humans face such as: divorce, addiction, fear and anxiety, regret, and self-doubt.

Nonetheless, during the last couple years of his life, Kelly experienced a psychological freedom many folks never do. He honored his creative gifts for making music and plunging into the own to run his own business centered around music and technology. He listened to others deeply and without a personal agenda. He came to understand love and life in a completely new way, truly finding inner peace. This potential is on offer for every human being on the planet and is the reason why I will continue the message of practical hope found in these podcast episodes.

Kelly was the definition of courage and human potential. He never lost that kid-like zest for life that so many of us do. He showed his enthusiasm for the people, music, and projects he supported and loved -- and he showed his support fearlessly.

His life and passing has changed my life forever. In this way, the "student" truly became the "teacher."

I encourage you to learn more about Kelly and his music. We interviewed him on this show on the "What To Do When A Loved One is Addicted" shows. You can google Kelly Monsrud and find him on YouTube and Soundcloud, with Blue Dream one of his original musical works.

With love,

What's the harm in taking a moment to step back and question the source of the feelings experienced then and even now? Open your mind and heart to your own insights as you listen to Piers' story.

5 Problems, 1 Solution (Part 2) Sep 22, 2016

Perfectionism. Comparison. Fear of Rejection and Criticism. Money Worries. Overwhelm. Join us for a second part of this topic: exploring these 5 common blocks and problems that most creative people are up against...and the one solution. If you didn’t get to listen to part 1, go back and listen to that one first. This is an interactive podcast, unlike most out there, because it involves you. We invite you again today to reflect. This time, on the quality of thinking you have (you know that little voice in your head) throughout the duration of the podcast. Do you find it changes often? What else can you notice? It is so important for us here at Revive Your Sanity that we aren’t just creating another space for how-to’s and opinions, but rather a place to reflect. A space to zoom out your perspective to focus not only on your personal troubles, dreams, to-do’s, and aspirations, but to start reflecting on how the human experience unfolds in general. What is the system behind the scenes of being human and for you to explore your own, built-in connection to intuitive intelligence and creative, clear thinking. To start a conversation in real-time and get in the best psychological shape of your life, head on over to www.amyleo.com. --- Show Notes: Todays #AmysRealStory is: Pitcher Jim Abbott.

5 Problems, 1 Solution (Part 1) Sep 15, 2016

Perfectionism. Comparison. Fear of Rejection and Criticism. Money Worries. Overwhelm. Join us for a two part episode that explores these 5 common blocks and problems that most creative people are up against...and the one solution. This is a podcast unlike any other, because it involves you. We invite you today to start your own experiential journey towards more freedom, happiness, and peace of mind, with your art and your life in general. It is so important for us here at Revive Your Sanity that we aren’t just creating another space for how-to’s and opinions, but rather a place to reflect. A space to zoom out your perspective to focus not on your personal troubles, dreams, to-do’s, and aspirations, but to start reflecting on how the human experience unfolds. What is the system behind the scenes of being human and how the mind is working. It seems that there are hundreds of psychological theories and personal development techniques. Though some may be helpful, they can’t all be true. That’s because they fall into personal thinking. They often aim to look at behavior in the world and modify it, without exploring the simplest, more neutral and universal root cause of all feelings and behaviors (and I am not talking about ‘triggers’). To get in the best psychological shape of your life, head on over to www.amyleo.com to see what awesome resources we have cookin to jumpstart your journey to happiness and more peace of mind. ---- Show Notes Today’s #AmysRealStory is: Girl has half of her brain removed and goes on to live a normal life. The girl’s name was Cameron Mott. “Cameron has no problems understanding language, music, math, stories. She’s good in school and participates in sports.” [Source: The Brain: The Story of You by David Eagleman]

Out of Your Mind and Into Your Body Aug 11, 2016

Join Amy Leo from amyleo.com as she speaks with Stella Stathi who converses with us as an eating and body image psychology mentor. Stella stories how that first step toward improving the relationship we have to our body is sometimes the biggest. Tune in as they invite you further into the possiblities that await your very own internal discovery toward the truths you believe about yourself so that you can move just a little closer toward taking one step to improve your mindset, your body image, and reconnect to your soul. You can learn more about Stella at www.bodyprema.com! Notes and resources from Stella... Stress activates the sympathetic nervous system which causes our blood to flow to our limbs in preparation for fight or flight. Therefore there is not enough blood flow in the stomach for proper digestion to take place. When we think negative, stressful thoughts like 'I shouldn't be eating this'', ''It's bad for me'', ''How many calories am I consuming now?'', or any other guilt-infused, self-judgmental thoughts we then create a 'high alert' situation in the body. This literally interferes with our digestion and our body's capacity to make best use of the food. Unconsciously this creates the same outcome we feared so much and desperately wanted to avoid in the first place. Here is a couple of good articles on that, also referencing relevant studies: http://www.abetterwaytohealth.com/how-your-thoughts-affect-your-digestion/#foot_text_130_3 http://www.dantest.com/dtr_ans_overview.htm Interested in diving into these topics in person?

Welcome to a totally different conversation. One that is educational in nature, but does not require previous education in psychology, personal development training, or adding new techniques and to do’s to your every day routine. Dive in and see for yourself, if there is indeed a better way.

You can reach Amy at www.DrAmyJohnson.com and learn more about the three principles at www.ThreePrinciplesMovies.com and 3pgc.org.
