Podcast appearances and mentions of Arthur Schopenhauer

Wenn einem die Argumente ausgehen, sollte man zur Beleidigung greifen, meinte schon der alte Schopenhauer und den hat Donald Trump bestimmt nicht gekannt. Beleidigen kann er trotzdem. Wer diesmal dran glauben musste? Bruce Springsteen und das hat WDR 2 Kabarettist Fritz Eckenga überhaupt nicht gefallen. Von Fritz Eckenga.

Si hay alguna función en esto del marketing es la de reforzar un producto bueno, el marketing nunca construye una idea, solo te la recuerda.

Imaginez une nuit glaciale. Deux hérissons cherchent à se rapprocher pour se réchauffer. Mais dès qu'ils s'approchent trop, leurs piquants les blessent. Ils s'éloignent, puis tentent à nouveau de se rapprocher, sans jamais trouver la distance idéale. Cette métaphore, formulée par le philosophe Arthur Schopenhauer au XIXe siècle, illustre le paradoxe des relations humaines : notre besoin de proximité se heurte à la peur de la souffrance que cette proximité peut engendrer.Sigmund Freud a repris cette image pour décrire la complexité des relations humaines. Plus nous nous rapprochons des autres, plus nous devenons vulnérables. Cette vulnérabilité peut entraîner des blessures émotionnelles, des conflits ou des rejets. Pour se protéger, certains choisissent de s'isoler, évitant ainsi le risque de souffrir, mais se privant également de la chaleur des relations humaines.Une étude menée par Jon Maner et ses collègues en 2007, publiée dans le Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, a exploré ce phénomène. Les chercheurs ont découvert que les personnes ayant vécu une exclusion sociale étaient plus enclines à rechercher de nouveaux liens sociaux. Cela suggère que, malgré la peur de la blessure, le besoin de connexion reste fondamental.Cependant, cette recherche de lien peut être entravée par des mécanismes de défense. Par exemple, une personne ayant été blessée dans le passé peut éviter de s'engager à nouveau, par crainte de revivre la même douleur. Ce comportement, bien que protecteur à court terme, peut conduire à une solitude prolongée et à un isolement émotionnel.Le dilemme du hérisson nous rappelle que l'intimité comporte des risques, mais que l'isolement n'est pas une solution durable. Trouver un équilibre entre proximité et protection est essentiel. Cela implique de développer une communication ouverte, de poser des limites saines et de cultiver la confiance en soi et en l'autre.En somme, le dilemme du hérisson illustre la tension entre notre désir de connexion et notre peur de la souffrance. Reconnaître cette tension et apprendre à naviguer entre ces deux pôles peut nous aider à construire des relations plus épanouissantes et authentiques. Hébergé par Acast.

Trong tác phẩm cuối cùng của ông “The wisdom of life” (Tạm dịch: Trí tuệ đời người), ông lần đầu bàn về hạnh phúc, và khẳng định: “Muốn sống cuộc đời hạnh phúc, không phải là theo đuổi hạnh phúc, mà là thoát khỏi khổ đau”. Vậy làm cách nào để thoát khỏi khổ đau? Con đường ít người đi này chỉ dành cho những tâm hồn muốn tỉnh thức sẵn lòng giữ khoảng cách với sự ồn ào, khoái cảm và phù hoa. Cuốn sách này được viết từ thế kỷ 19, nhưng triết lý ở đây vẫn đúng với thời đại bây giờVà hôm nay, chúng ta sẽ cùng lắng nghe chia sẻ mang tên “Người có nội tâm càng phong phú càng khó hoà đồng” qua tác phẩm triết học kinh điển “The wisdom of life” của triết gia Arthur Schopenhauer.-------------------------Nếu bạn muốn mua sách giấy để đọc, có thể ủng hộ Better Version bằng cách mua qua đường link này nhé, cám ơn các bạn! ❤️ Link tổng hợp các cuốn sách trong tất cả video: https://beacons.ai/betterversion.vn/b... ❤️ ỦNG HỘ KÊNH TẠI: https://beacons.ai/betterversion.donate

Xây dựng trên nền tảng triết học duy tâm siêu nghiệm của Immanuel Kant, ông đã phát triển một hệ thống luân lý và siêu hình vô thần bác bỏ những ý tưởng thời thượng lúc bấy giờ của trào lưu duy tâm Đức. Schopenhauer là một trong những trí thức phương Tây thế hệ đầu chia sẻ nhiều tư tưởng chung với triết học Ấn Độ, chẳng hạn như sự khổ tu, sự chối bỏ bản thân, và ý niệm cho rằng thế giới là sự phô chiếu ảo ảnh. Lý thuyết siêu hình của ông chính là nền tảng cho các tác phẩm về đề tài tâm lý học, mỹ học, đạo đức học và chính trị học, Phật học... những tác phẩm đã để lại tầm ảnh hưởng tới các danh nhân sau này như Friedrich Nietzsche, Wagner, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Sigmund Freud và nhiều người khác. Sách nói Những Nhà Tư Tưởng Lớn - Schopenhauer Trong 60 Phút sẽ cung cấp cho bạn những thông tin ngắn gọn và dễ hiểu nhất về Schopenhauer cùng tư tưởng triết học của ông.--Tìm hiểu thêm về Fonos: https://fonos.vn/Theo dõi Facebook Fonos: https://www.facebook.com/fonosvietnam/

"You are not an evil human. You are not without intellect and education. You have everything that could make you a credit to human society. Moreover, I am acquainted with your heart and know that few are better, but you are nevertheless irritating and unbearable and I consider it most difficult to live with you. All of your good qualities become obscured by your super cleverness and are made useless to the world merely because of your rage at wanting to know everything better than others; of wanting to improve and master what you cannot command. With this you embitter the people around you, since no one wants to be improved or enlightened in such a forceful way, least of all by such an insignificant individual as you still are; no one can tolerate being reproved by you, who also still show so many weaknesses yourself, least of all in your adverse manner, which in oracular tones, proclaims this so and so, without ever supposing an objection. If you were less like you, you would only be ridiculous, but thus as you are are, you are highly annoying." - Arthur Schopenhauer's mother, Johanna, in a letter to him dated November 6, 1807.On a very special of The Culture Matters Podcast, we are once again discussing Jay's book, Thirty Days of Thought, and, more specifically, the section titled "Frustrated".  This discussion is going to be a little different because we have invited some of our favorite frequent guests to discuss it with us.  Andrew Berman, Paul Lucido, Demetrios Stakias, Nathan Merrill, and Chris Vester are all here to dig into this section and get to the bottom of frustration.  This discussion covers some of the causes of frustration in ourselves as well as with others, communicating clearly, and making sure that you have a good foundation so that when the frustration does come (and it will), you have something solid to stand on.  This is a big conversation with some big personalities and we hope you you enjoy this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.

In this episode, a perfectionist's quest for the perfect checklist leads to an unexpected business acquisition. Barry explains how his journey from "maybe I should get my pilot certificate" turned into owning Checkmate Aviation after his DIY checklist started peeling apart. Between Ben's tales of impressing passengers with instrument approaches and Brian's near-purchase of a globe-trotting Swift, the crew dives into the art of flows versus checklists, and joke about creating a "midlife version" with extra-large text. Barry M, who owns Checkmate Aviation, talked about checklists and flows: https://checkmateaviation.com/ Mentioned on the show: * Erica Gilbert - Aerosafe: https://www.youtube.com/@AeroSafe/videos * TMA - Tifton GA: https://www.airnav.com/airport/TMA * MMI - Athens TN: https://www.airnav.com/airport/MMI * Swift museum: https://swiftmuseumfoundation.org/ * ICARUS view-limiting device: https://www.icarusdevices.com/ * Arthur Schopenhauer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Schopenhauer * Checkmate Aviation: https://checkmateaviation.com/ * TTD - Troutdale Oregon: https://www.airnav.com/airport/TTD * Checklist Manifesto: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Checklist_Manifesto

Bruno Nacci"L'eredità"Guy de MaupassantCarbonio Editorewww.carbonioeditore.itNella Parigi della Belle Époque, César Cachelin, impiegato del Ministero della Marina, combina un matrimonio tra la figlia Cora e uno dei suoi colleghi più promettenti e ambiziosi, Léopold Lesable, pregustando l'ingente eredità che la sua ricca sorella Charlotte ha destinato alla giovane nipote. Ma alla morte dell'anziana zitella, con grande sgomento i Cachelin scoprono che Charlotte ha imposto una condizione nel testamento: se entro tre anni dal suo decesso Léopold e Cora non avranno figli, il denaro – un milione netto! – andrà tutto in beneficenza. Da quel momento, la famiglia si prodiga in ogni modo perché nasca un bambino, in una spietata partita a scacchi che svela il sottobosco di ipocrisie e meschinità che si cela sotto la superficie delle buone maniere.Guy de Maupassant, attraverso il suo implacabile scetticismo, si diverte a lacerare le apparenze per smascherare le intenzioni e a scoprire la sorgente inquinata dell'animo umano, consegnandoci un capolavoro di sottile e grottesca arte narrativa. Apparsa nel 1884, prima in rivista e poi nella raccolta Miss Harriet, questa preziosa novella era preceduta da una sua versione molto più breve, intitolata Un milione, che qui riproponiamo.Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893) è tra i maggiori scrittori francesi della seconda metà dell'Ottocento. Crebbe alla scuola di Gustave Flaubert, che venerò come maestro e mentore. Pubblicò quasi trecento tra racconti e novelle, e sei romanzi, tra cui ricordiamo Una vita (1883), Bel-Ami (1885), Pierre e Jean (1888). Le sue opere, improntate a un pessimismo radicale che solo in parte può essere ricondotto alla grande lezione del realismo e del naturalismo europei, sono più vicine al pensiero di Giacomo Leopardi e Arthur Schopenhauer che a Gustave Flaubert o Émile Zola, e aprono la strada alla narrativa americana del Novecento e perfino, nelle ultime prove, anche a quella di Marcel Proust.Bruno Nacci ha curato classici della letteratura francese, da Chamfort a Nerval, in particolare Blaise Pascal, su cui ha scritto La quarta vigilia. Gli ultimi anni di Blaise Pascal (2014). È autore del noir L'assassinio della Signora di Praslin (2000); insieme a Laura Bosio ha scritto i romanzi storici Per seguire la mia stella (2017), La casa degli uccelli (2020) e il saggio Da un'altra Italia (2014). Ha pubblicato anche diverse raccolte di racconti, e per Carbonio ha già tradotto e curato, di Gustave Flaubert, La tentazione di sant'Antonio (2023).IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Arthur Schopenhauer's The Wisdom of Life

Arthur Schopenhauer's The Wisdom of Life,

"What the herd hates most is the one who thinks differently; it is not so much the opinion itself, but the audacity of wanting to think for themselves, something that they do not know how to do." — Arthur Schopenhauer (1788–1860) Throughout the world, mental capacity is declining, especially among young people, while depression rates are rising dramatically. Meanwhile, one in forty men and women suffers from Alzheimer's, and the age of onset is falling rapidly. But the causes are not being eliminated, quite the opposite. Can this just be coincidence? The Indoctrinated Brain - How to Defend Your Mental Freedom with Michael Nehls, MD, PhD Nehls, a medical doctor and internationally renowned molecular geneticist, lays out a shattering chain of circumstantial evidence in his book "" indicating that behind these numerous negative influences lies a targeted, masterfully executed attack on our individuality. He points out how the raging wars against viruses, about climate change, or over national borders are—more likely intended than not—fundamentally providing the platform for such an offensive against the human brain that is steadily changing our being and is aimed at depriving us of our ability to think for ourselves. As a basic researcher, he deciphered the genetic causes of dozens of hereditary diseases at German and international research institutions. Two of his discoveries were published in collaboration with two Nobel Prize winners. Another discovery of a key gene in immunity development was honored by the renowned American Association of Immunologists as a "Pillar of Immunology." For his pioneering findings on Alzheimer's disease development, prevention, and therapy, he was awarded the Hanse Prize for Molecular Psychiatry by the Rostock University Hospital. Dr. Nehls was vice president of genome research at a US company for three years and chief scientific officer and CEO of a Munich-based biotechnology company for eight years. A scientific author talented in making complex topics understandable to a wide audience, he has written several bestsellers that have been translated into many languages. As a private lecturer, he delivers lectures at congresses and universities, attracting wide audiences.

Le "dilemme du hérisson," proposé par le philosophe Arthur Schopenhauer, illustre parfaitement le paradoxe des relations humaines, et pourquoi elles peuvent souvent nous pousser à la solitude. Dans son ouvrage Parerga und Paralipomena, publié en 1851, qui est un recueil d'essais et de réflexions philosophiques, le dilemme apparaît dans la deuxième partie, intitulée Paralipomena. C'est un texte relativement bref, mais il résume bien la vision pessimiste de Schopenhauer sur les relations humaines et la nature de la proximité. Plus précisément, Schopenhauer décrit une scène où des hérissons, par une froide journée d'hiver, tentent de se rapprocher les uns des autres pour se réchauffer. Mais, plus ils s'approchent, plus ils se piquent avec leurs épines, les obligeant à se tenir à une distance inconfortable. Cette métaphore illustre les défis de l'intimité humaine : nous désirons tous la connexion et la chaleur de la proximité, mais cette intimité peut aussi engendrer des blessures. Dans les relations humaines, les "épines" représentent les aspects de notre personnalité, nos défauts, nos insécurités, et nos différences, qui rendent parfois la proximité inconfortable, voire douloureuse. Quand nous nous rapprochons trop, nous risquons de nous blesser mutuellement. Cela peut se traduire par des disputes, des malentendus, ou des tensions. Face à ce constat, certains choisissent d'éviter cette douleur en se tenant à distance, ou même en choisissant la solitude. Schopenhauer voyait cette solitude comme une conséquence inévitable de notre nature humaine. Pour lui, la plupart des gens préfèrent garder une certaine distance émotionnelle pour se protéger, même si cela les empêche d'atteindre une intimité véritable. En choisissant la solitude, on évite la souffrance, mais on renonce aussi à une partie de ce qui rend la vie humaine si riche. En psychologie moderne, ce dilemme est souvent relié au concept d'attachement et à la peur de la vulnérabilité. Certaines personnes préfèrent être seules par peur d'être rejetées ou blessées. Pour Schopenhauer, cette tendance humaine était inévitable et révélait notre condition d'individu profondément marqué par l'isolement. Même dans un monde social, le dilemme du hérisson nous rappelle que la vraie intimité est rare et difficile à maintenir. Ainsi, ce dilemme ne nous pousse pas nécessairement à la solitude par choix, mais par protection. En fin de compte, le dilemme du hérisson de Schopenhauer nous enseigne que la solitude n'est pas simplement un choix personnel, mais un compromis entre le désir de connexion et la peur de la douleur. Cela éclaire pourquoi, pour beaucoup, la solitude reste une option plus simple et moins risquée que la proximité. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Arthur Schopenhauer said "if you come across any special trait of meanness or stupidity...you must be careful not to let it annoy or distress you , but look upon it merely as an addition to your knowledge-- a new fact to be considered in studying the character of Humanity. Your attitude towards it will be that of a mineralogist who stumbles upon a very characteristic specimen of a mineral. This quote spoke to me specifically this week. Keep your heads up, coaches.

Para filósofo alemão Arthur Schopenhauer, 'desejo incessante de viver' não é algo que podemos controlar, mas que nos escraviza — uma exigência infinita que nunca é satisfeita.

Schriftstellerin, Dichterin, Meisterin des Scherenschnitts: Adele Schopenhauer ist weit mehr als die Schwester des berühmten Philosophen. Am 25.8.1849 stirbt sie in Bonn. Von Doris Arp.

Auteur d'une magistrale œuvre philosophique, Arthur Schopenhauer est surtout connu du grand public pour son livre "L'Art d'avoir toujours raison", un petit ouvrage qui traite de l'art de la controverse et de la dispute intellectuelle. Mais au-delà de la dimension sarcastique de cet ouvrage, que nous révèle notre besoin d'avoir toujours raison ?

No se lo pierdan amigossh... Y recuerden que pueden encontrar este y otros cuentos macabros de algunos grandes maestros del terror en estas compilaciones primigenias de Valdemar - "Felices Pesadillas" y "La Madre de los Monstruos y otros cuentos de locura y muerte" 💀👻🙀😈 https://x.com/ed_valdemar https://www.instagram.com/valdemareditorial/?hl=es "La muerte es el gran genio inspirador, el Muságetas de la filosofía… Sin ella difícilmente se hubiera filosofado. Nacimiento y muerte pertenecen igualmente a la vida y se contrapesan. El uno es la condición de la otra. Forman los dos extremos, los dos polos de todas las manifestaciones de la vida. Esto es lo que la más sabia de las mitologías, la de la India, expresa con un símbolo dando como atributo a Schiwa, el dios de la destrucción, al mismo tiempo que su collar de cabezas de muerto, el linga, órgano y símbolo de la generación. El amor es la compensación de la muerte, su correlativo esencial; se neutralizan, se suprimen el uno al otro. Por eso, los griegos y los romanos adornaban esos preciosos sarcófagos que aún vemos hoy con bajorrelieves figurando fiestas, danzas, bodas, cazas, combates de animales, bacanales, en una palabra, imágenes de la vida más alegre, más animada, más intensa, hasta grupos voluptuosos, y hasta sátiros ayuntados con cabras. Su objeto era llamar la atención del espíritu de la manera más sensible, por el contraste entre la muerte del hombre, quien se llora encerrado en la tumba, y la vida inmortal de la Naturaleza. Arthur Schopenhauer

I have to put in context, and Arthur Schopenhauer observed that all truth passes through three levels. First, it's ridicule, second, it's violently opposed, third, it's accepted as being self -evident. Such a truth has emerged in our lifetime. It informs us that we exist as a tiny fragment of an immensely larger interlocking pole, which all the parts are interconnected and depend upon each other for survival. Simply put, everything's connected to everything else. We exist not separately, but in communion with all other living things. Life's an interrelated, interdependent phenomenon. Everything's in relationship. It's the nature of universe, it's the nature of the reality in which we exist. Like it or not, reality has behavioral demands. That is, if you want to stick around, if you want to live, if you want to continue on the journey, those behavioral demands can be summarized in seven words. Be healthy, be kind, respect the environment. Each one of us is like a cell in the body of humanity. The health of all of us taken together in terms of the health of humanity and the health of our civilization." On Updating Beliefs "The question is, how do we reduce ignorance and suffering, expand knowledge and justice? Einstein observed that we can't solve our problems from the same level of thinking which they originated.So it begs the question, what level of thinking are we at?

FdB 4x1 | Volvemos y lo hacemos de la mano de Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860), cuya obra representa una puerta al pensamiento contemporáneo. Muy influido por Platón y Kant, se distancia del idealismo alemán y del pensamiento hegeliano, que califica como "fantasmagoría cristiana". A diferencia de este, Schopenhauer no creía en el progreso ni que el mundo estuviera gobernado por la razón.

Join me for tangible, natural strategies to crush the hormone imbalances you are facing and help you get unstuck from the sidelines of life. My name is Dr. Kyrin Dunston. Welcome to the Hormone Prescription Podcast. Dr. Kyrin (01:17): Hi everybody. Welcome back to another episode of the Hormone Prescription with Dr. Kyrin. Thank you so much for joining me today as we dive in with Dr. David Clark into a discussion about deep stress and your brain causing chronic disease, chronic pain, hurting your hormones and lots more. This really is self-evident to a lot of physicians like me and Dr. Clark, but most physicians haven't gotten the memo when they went through med school and training. They didn't get the memo on this. They weren't trained in this. So they're probably not aware if you're going to a typical managed care physician. They also don't necessarily have the time to spend with you to discern if these issues could be contributing to your health problem. So I think this is a super important topic. I'm glad you're here to hear it. Dr. Clark has deep knowledge and experience in treating patients, in research, in teaching medical students and residents about these issues, and it really can benefit your health and your hormones. Dr. Kyrin (02:29): So I'll tell you a little bit about him and then we'll get started. So he's a board certified internal medicine specialist and gastroenterologist, and he is the founder of the Psychophysiologic Disorders Association, PPDA. He's got some resources to share with you. His website is end chronic pain org. And he's very modest because in his bio that he shared with me before we started, and then I did my research online, I found all the books that he has authored and co-authored and all the resources that he has for you. So he's the author or co-author of Psychophysiologic Disorders. He is an author of a diagnostic guide for Psychophysiologic disorders, that's for practitioners. He is the author of, they Can't Find Anything Wrong, Seven Keys to Understanding Treating and Healing Stress Illness. But none of this was in his bio . So he's, he's very modest, but like I said, he has deep knowledge and the time has really come that all doctors should know about the effect of ACEs and deep stress on their patient's health, but they just don't. So it's your turn. You've gotta take responsibility for your health to educate yourself about this and to put it into practice, to use your, in your health to move it towards the best it can be because you only get one life and you deserve to have the best health and best life and best vitality possible. So that's Dr. David Clark. Please help me welcome him to the show. Dr. David (04:15): Great to be with you. Thank you. Dr. Kyrin (04:16): Yes. I know we're talking about your favorite topic today and hopefully we'll tie it into my favorite topic, which is hormones. And hormones and pain, chronic pain are interrelated. If you're listening and you're not sure why you're scratching your head saying, Dr. Karen, I don't understand that. Hopefully it'll make more sense for you at the end of the episode. But first I wanna dive in . You are certified in internal medicine and gastroenterology, but you have this passion for psychophysiologic disorders. If you're not sure what that is and you're listening, just stay tuned. We'll, we'll, we'll define that for you. And most doctors certified in internal medicine, practicing everyday internal medicine and gastroenterology really don't have an interest in this, they may not have knowledge or awareness of what you specialize in. I know that you do educate practitioners, which is wonderful because we need to have more awareness. How did you become aware that this was a huge blind spot for US physicians when it comes to treating patients and become so passionate about it? Dr. David (05:28): Well, like you, I was very traditionally trained. I mean, I went through four years of medical school and three years of internal medicine residency entirely. Traditionally, things were going well for me in terms of my training, but all of a sudden I encountered a patient. I didn't know the first thing about how to diagnose or treat this was in the eighth year, you know, when I was a first year as a gastroenterology fellow. And this patient had been ill for two years, with very severe physical symptoms, actually referred to UCLA where I was in training from another university because they couldn't figure out what was wrong with her. We did a very specialized test on the electromechanical properties of the intestine to try to figure out what her problem was. And we were my department chair and I, we were convinced that that test was gonna be abnormal because no other explanation was possible as far as we were concerned. Dr. David (06:21): And so when that test was normal, two we're just at a loss and we had to essentially tell the patient there was nothing more we could do for her. But in her exit interview, I asked her about stress a few more times, and she began telling me she'd been sexually abused as a girl and not just once or twice, but hundreds of times. And this obviously was a huge piece of history from her background that I didn't think could possibly be connected to why she was physically ill 25 years later. But it definitely stood out and I was aware that there was a psychiatrist in our institution who had an interest in these mind to body connections. And I thought, well, maybe we can help this patient live with her condition a little more successfully if she talks to this psychiatrist. So I arranged an appointment, forgot all about her, and then I ran into the psychiatrist in an elevator a few months later and said, you know, whatever happened to that patient that I referred to you? Dr. David (07:19): And she said, oh, I haven't seen her in a few weeks now, Dave she's fine. She's, you know, no longer needs any medical care. All of her symptoms have completely resolved. And this happened just with a few months of counseling. And at that point, that just blew my mind that you could alleviate a serious physical condition just by talking to somebody. So I thought, okay, you know, if I'm gonna be a complete doctor, I should learn a little bit about how to do this. It might come in handy for a few patients every year when I get into practice. So I prevailed on Dr. Kaplan to give me a framework for how she thought about these things. And then when I did get into practice, I started using this framework whenever I couldn't find a disease or an injury that would explain the patient's symptoms and patient after patient had these deep psychosocial stresses that were going on that were connected to their illness, if you could identify them, if you could treat them, the patient's physical symptoms would improve. And unfortunately, in Portland, Oregon where I was in practice, there were no other Dr. Kaplan's there. So I ended up doing a lot of this work myself, and today we're 7,000 plus patients later than I've been doing this with. And I've been teaching other doctors how to do this because you can, it's readily possible to learn how to do this, and it just transforms your practice. This was one third of my patients for decades. Dr. Kyrin (08:47): Right. Well, thank you for sharing that. I, I think it's always fascinating how, why people do what they do, why they're so passionate about it, particularly when it comes to physicians who have gone off the beaten path, the mainstream of medicine where most gastro neurologists are just typically prescribing drugs and surgery, and nobody's asking about people's adverse childhood experiences, deep stress, et cetera. So hopefully that gives everybody an idea of the question of why this is important. Maybe there's somebody listening who's been struggling with undiagnosed medical illness. What are some of the statistics on undiagnosed medical illness and why is this such a huge problem? Dr. David (09:31): Yeah, we're talking here about people who go to the doctor for their pain or illness and no disease or injury is found to explain it. Or if the doctor thinks, well, maybe this issue could be explaining your illness, but you're not improving in the way the doctor expects, and that's the time we want to bring in a look at psychosocial stresses, either from the past or the present or both that could be contributing. And it turns out that when you look at the research, it's about 40% of people that go to a primary care physician or about 20% of the adult population in general. So this is 80% larger than the diabetic population, for example. And yet, unfortunately, it's not been part of traditional training. It's kind of like the medical clinicians are saying, well, this is a a psychological problem. This is really not in our ballpark. And the mental health professionals are saying, well, these patients have physical symptoms, they've got real pain, they've got irritable bowel or fibromyalgia or migraines or pelvic pain or genital pain or joint or back pain. And that's not really a mental health problem. So we don't deal with this either. And these patients fall into a giant blind spot in this system. It's 50 million people in the United States alone. Dr. Kyrin (10:50): So how would somebody who's listening know if they have a chronic illness that remains undiagnosed or chronic pain? You talk about stress related brain generated symptoms versus traditional pain and disease. How does someone even begin to sort out, is this me? Could this be affecting me? Dr. David (11:10): Yeah, it certainly starts with having a medical evaluation to make sure there's no organ disease or injury that's responsible. And then after that, we're looking into whether there could be a psychosocial stress behind this. And there are three main categories for that. There could be stress in your life at the moment, especially if it's chronologically linked to when and where your symptoms began or when and where your symptoms flare up. The second major issue is to make sure you don't have a mental health condition that hasn't been diagnosed. A lot of people with depression, anxiety, or post-trauma stress don't fully recognize that their symptoms are linked to that depression. Those mental health conditions can be subtle in many people and not so obvious as to have you running straight to a mental health professional. And then finally, the biggest shock of my medical education was finding out that stress when you were a child, could make you ill as an adult. Dr. David (12:09): The question that I like to ask my patients here is, imagine you were a butterfly on the wall of your childhood home and you were observing a child you care about growing up in the same home that you grew up in and you can't do anything. You're just watching that kid try to cope. Would it make you sad or angry to watch that child either your own or another one you have a connection to make you sad or angry to watch that kid trying to cope in that environment. And if it would, then there's a probability that there's a level of stress that went on back then it can still be impacting you today, including in the form of physical symptoms. Dr. Kyrin (12:47): So I wanna ask you a couple of questions about what you just shared. So you said they need to make sure they don't have any type of organ disease or a mental health diagnosis, but in reality you can have organ disease functional like a Crohn's or ulcerative colitis with an actual organ problem, and you still could be related to stress and brain issues. Correct? Dr. David (13:12): Well, you can have a combination of impact on your body from stress, from brain generated symptoms and a biomedical condition like Crohn's disease at the same time. And that's, that can be a really confusing situation for a physician. If you've got a flare up of symptoms, you need to then sort out, is it the inflammatory bowel disease is flaring up or is it the irritable bowel syndrome that's more directly connected to stress that's flaring up. And sometimes you have to do more diagnostic tests to see if the inflammation is more active, or you can evaluate the patient and see if there's a stress that has come up in their life that has triggered the flare up in the symptoms. So yeah, there can be people who have both of these conditions at the same time. Right. Dr. Kyrin (14:01): And same, I guess with the mental health diagnosis. And you talk about adverse childhood experiences, which we've talked a bit about on the podcast, but I think it bears repeating. And you mentioned a term though I had not heard called deep stress. So can you talk about what is deep stress and maybe talk to everyone about how they would know if they qualified to have adverse childhood experiences or not? I know you gave a great example there. If you look back at your childhood, would you think, wow, that was really a lot to handle, but what is deep stress? Dr. David (14:36): I use the term deep stress to mean stresses that people don't fully recognize they have. So they're kind of deeply buried stresses that may be affecting a person today, but they're not fully recognizing the magnitude of that stress. One of my patients, for example, was put into my hospital because of an attack of severe vomiting and extreme dizziness. And when I went to see her for consultation, she said something to me, I've never heard from any other patient, which was, thank you for coming, doctor, but don't waste your time with me. You'd be better off seeing your other patients. And when I asked her why it turned out she had good reason to say that she had been hospitalized at a major university in her hometown 60 times over the previous 15 years with no diagnosis. She had seen a dozen different specialists, she had seen a psychiatrist and none of them could find anything wrong with her. Dr. David (15:31): But it turned out that she had a major stress in her life, which turned out to be that her mother had verbally and emotionally abused her, starting when she was three or four years old and continuing on to the present day. She was 50 years old at the time, her mother was in her seventies and was still doing this to her. So it also turned out that, and this was the, the real key to her diagnosis. But although most of her attacks of illness, which she had between six and 10 times a year, took place in and around her home community, she would always get an attack whenever she passed through a little town, about 45 minutes from where she lived. But it turned out the only time she ever went through that little town was when she was on her way to visit her mother, who lived several hours further down the road. Dr. David (16:21): So she's driving to visit her mom, the emotional tension in that relationship is building and building and building. And by the time she gets to this little town, her husband's gotta pull a car over and she's throwing up all over the guardrail. So I pointed out to her that the only time she got sick was when she was on her way to visit her mother. She could drive 45 minutes in any other direction and she'd be fine. She could drive an hour and 45 minutes in any other direction and she wouldn't have any problem. So that finally made clear to her what this deep stress was that she hadn't previously recognized. And as soon in her case, just bringing that into conscious awareness was enough to alleviate her illness. She went home from the hospital the next day and she called me a year later, say, she'd gone through the entire year with no episodes. Now I wish I could cure everybody that quickly, but it's a really good example of deep stress and the impact it can have when you finally see what's going on. Dr. Kyrin (17:22): Right. And so what you're describing though, in terms of the physician interaction really requires a level of attention and curiosity and a level of time commitment to really sort through these issues with people that most physicians are not allotted by the current managed care system that we have. And we're not trained in that. So I know that you have so many resources, books you've authored and training programs for practitioners. I don't know that the medical curriculum has changed since I went through medical school. Are you, or residency, but how do you suspect that we're going to actually get physicians, the education and training and give them the time to be able to sort through these issues with patients? Dr. David (18:13): Yeah, once you see these issues, you sort of can't unsee them. And it's true that the, you know, medical office visits these days are very short. But as I tell my audiences of physicians when I'm teaching, you don't have to gather all this information in one visit. You can get the information you need about stresses passed and present a little at a time, because these are patients that tend to keep coming back to your office because they don't get better with the traditional approaches. So you gather this information over time, and the physicians I've taught to do this they absolutely love it. It transforms their practice. So one of them mm-hmm, , a family doctor, took me aside at a conference and said, these concepts have put the joy back into my work because all of a sudden you've got 40% of the people who are coming through the door to see you. Dr. David (19:04): That used to be a headbanging frustrating because you didn't know what to do for them. Now all of a sudden you have a positive approach that you can take that actually makes people better. Not necessarily in one hour conversation like with the last patient, but definitely over time people can see they're on a pathway toward improving their use of healthcare resources goes way down. You know, you asked about, you know, what patients can do to assess themselves. I should have mentioned we've got a self-assessment quiz on my nonprofits website. It's at end chronic pain.org. There's a 12 item self-assessment quiz. And it's set up so that the more questions to which you answer yes, the more likely it is that you have one of these psychophysiologic disorders. A combination of psychology and physiology. And that's a way that your listeners can find out or at least get more information about whether this might apply to them. Dr. Kyrin (20:01): Yes. Something else you said though, that this woman had been emotionally abused by her mother in my experience. So this applies to a great quote that you shared with me from Schauer before we started that I wanna share with everyone. All truth passes through three stages. First it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. And I love that because I, I don't know which stage we're in with the topics that you're talking about where deep stress, adverse childhood experience, and we're probably in the, maybe it's a little ridiculed by a lot of people. That's not an issue. And in my experience, and in a lot of the women that I work with, thousands of women, if you say, were you emotionally abused? Were you sexually abused? Did you have abuse? Did you have neglect as a child? Dr. Kyrin (20:51): I find that a majority of people who grew up in fairly cohesive, what I would call seemingly functional families, have no awareness actually, that they were emotionally abused, but they were, and maybe they have no memory of sexual abuse, but they were. And so I do find when I encounter patients, 'cause this is something I'm attuned to, and there are certain issues going on that have no medical explanation, and I approached these subjects, their answer is, oh no, I, my family was fine. I didn't have any problems. But if you ask more pointed questions to get to specific statements that people may have made or how people were available to them or not emotionally really in the terms of the emotional arena, people have a huge amount of denial is what I'm gonna say. Dr. David (21:42): You're right. Dr. Kyrin (21:44): So how do you, we've been socialized in America and most developed countries to believe that our body is a machine and it's a mechanical machine. When there's a problem, well, we go to the doctor to get a diagnosis, just like we take our car to the mechanic and then they figure out what's wrong and they give us a pill or they do a surgery and they fix us. And nowhere in my training or any, I just did my board recertification this year, we have to do it every year. And none of the articles on women's health had anything to do with what you and I are talking about when you and I both know that the issues we're talking about have deep consequences in terms of health for women in terms of their fertility and their menstrual regularity, their menopause, et cetera. So how do you get people out of denial and to really realize that this is a part of the problem and realize that what they did experience, although it might not have been horrific, like you see in some TV shows and movies, actually was neglectful and was an adverse childhood experience. And was Dr. Deep stress Dr. David (22:49): Wow, a lot to unpack there. Yes, with the Schopenhauer quote, I mean, it depends on, you know, who you talk to. But the acceptance now is really coming on. I mean, there, I'm teaching in my medical school, I'm teaching in graduate schools, and there are medical schools in Europe that are teaching this now. One of two of them are actually using my first book called They can't find anything wrong as a teaching tool, especially for their family doctors. So the acceptance is really growing. It, it's, we need more for acceptance than just me telling stories about my patients. And we have that. Now in 2024, there are half a dozen randomized controlled trials that show the value of what I call pain relief psychology or what another researcher is called, pain recovery psychology, that have compared it with a variety of placebo control groups and the, the power of the outcomes, the effect size, which is the, the statistical term is enormous for when you compare it in terms of the outcomes. Dr. David (23:55): One of the studies called the Boulder Back Pain Study, for example, they had people with 10 years of back pain. Their average pain scores were four out of 10. And with just one month of pain relief psychology, their average pain scores dropped from four to one. And this is after a decade, these people had been suffering. And, one month it just plummets. It's extraordinary to see the graph. It was published in the JAMA Psychiatry Journal of the American Medical Association. And the benefits were enormous. And we got similar results at Harvard, at the West Los Angeles VA Hospital where they worked with a very tough group of older male veterans, 5% of whom got better with cognitive behavioral therapy, which is the usual kind of psychotherapy that you get in the us. But with the new pain relief psychology, 42% achieved their pain goal. Dr. David (24:51): I mean, it was eight times as much. It's just extraordinary to see that kind of impact just from talking to people in a different way. So coming onto your question about how do we make people aware that their childhood experience was maybe not quite so good as they thought, because you know, after all, none of us has a parallel life we can compare ourselves with. If you grow up in a difficult environment, you may not necessarily appreciate how difficult it was. So this brings me back to that same idea of, you know, imagine a child that you care about growing up in the same household you did, dealing with everything you had to deal with, and you are just watching it as a passive observer. How are you feeling when you're watching that kid you care about try to cope? One of my patients was a, you know, person known to the public whom I was talking about this with. Dr. David (25:47): And she said, no, my childhood was really not that bad. Other people have been through much worse than I have. It turned out her parents fought with each other almost every day. Not physically, but verbally and emotionally, and she was an only child. So she took on the role of peacemaker and then her parents got divorced when she was age eight, which you would think would, you know, be a partial solution to her problem. But unfortunately, they kept living in the same house. They slept in several bedrooms, but you know, they still were fighting with each other. So from her perspective, it didn't do her any good at all. And she's telling me, no, this really wasn't so bad. So I said, okay, you have this beloved niece, a four or five, 6-year-old girl. You love this girl. You take her on with you on weekends and do fun things with her. Dr. David (26:32): You're just devoted to this little girl. Imagine her, your niece in that household, and you can only watch, you're watching your niece try to cope with your parents. What is that gonna be like for you? And she just stared at me. She was, you know, somebody who was very verbal, could carry on her end of a conversation all day long that just brought her to a halt. And she went on for a couple of minutes just pondering that idea. And then at the end she said, you know, after a week of watching that I would shoot myself. And that was the first time she had truly recognized just how difficult it really was. And that was the start of her treatment, which was successful. She had half a dozen different symptoms in her body for the last 20 years, and within a matter of months they were gone. Dr. Kyrin (27:21): I love that question. I think it's beautiful. I actually went through and took your quiz before we did the interview because I wanted to see what the questions were. And that question is on there. And I think that helps someone step out, I think people are very worried about blaming their parents and they don't wanna do that. And so that hence the denial. Most of us really appreciate all that our parents have done for us. And you know, even if there were difficulties, but when you step out as an observer and say, well, yeah, if there were a child like you, your patient said, I, I would shoot myself then, you know, and there really is no one to blame because they're only doing what they were taught by their parents and their parents and their parents and their parents. Dr. David (28:03): So they do the best they can. Dr. Kyrin (28:05): They do the best they can. So thank you for explaining that. And so people can also identify what are some of the most common symptoms that we're talking about? Dr. David (28:16): Yeah, I'm glad you asked 'cause we hadn't mentioned that it's literally head to toe. You can have pain symptoms and non-pain symptoms. So migraines ring in the ears, difficulty swallowing, visual disturbances, pseudo seizures, pain in the temporomandibular joint of the jaw. Neck pain, low back pain is a big one. Approximately 88% of low back pain is psychophysiologic in nature according to a recent study. Chest pain, abdominal pain, pelvic genital joint, difficulty breathing, unexplained cough, irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel can cause diarrhea, constipation, nausea, vomiting, bloating, indigestion, numbness and tingling in the extremities. The, the only common denominator is that people tend to have more than one symptom at a time. The more symptoms you have, the more likely it is a psychophysiologic cause is what's going on. And there's lots more that I haven't even thought to mention. Functional neurological disorder is another one. A lot of people with hypermobility disorder like Aler Danlos get all kinds of symptoms attributed to Aler Danlos that probably are not from the Aler Danlos. They're actually from psychophysiologic disorder. Dr. Kyrin (29:37): And so how are these symptoms triggered and why is understanding this so important to treatment? Dr. David (29:44): Well, the symptoms can be triggered by a particular stress that this happens most often in my patients with post-trauma, that they've been through some kind of terrifying or horrifying event. And then, the symptoms begin soon thereafter, or it could be the trauma was quite a number of years in the past, but some triggering event has happened that leads to the development of the symptoms. But sometimes the symptoms can just appear for seemingly no reason as part of the recovery process from adverse childhood experiences. For example, my very first patient, she was averaging one bowel movement per month despite taking four different laxatives at double the usual doses. And it just started when she was 35. She was the one who had been sexually abused hundreds of times. Nobody had touched her against her will for close to 25 years. But the illness just began in midlife. Dr. David (30:40): And why is that? Well, it turns out that there's a recovery process from childhood adversity, and at some point people reached a level where a lot of the buried emotions begin to come knocking on the door. She had a tremendous amount of outrage about how she'd been treated as a girl, but it had been repressed. In order to survive her childhood, she had to repress it. But in the middle of her thirties, it was finally time for her to confront this and deal with it. But the anger couldn't find a way into her conscious awareness. So instead it manifested in her body. And the psychiatrist, Dr. Kaplan helped her to recognize how much anger she had begun to talk about, putting it into words. And the more you can put repressed emotions into words, the less they have to express themselves via the body. And these can be not just anger, but I've had patients with fear, shame, guilt, grief, that we're responsible instead of anger. Dr. Kyrin (31:39): Yeah, I love that. I really think that the body is our subconscious mind and it will out picture anything that we don't acknowledge or feel, feel, feel consciously. Absolutely. And so, right, if we deny it, then our body has to express it. And that's probably an illness or pain. But when we acknowledge it and feel it and process it, then the body says, oh, thank you for doing your job so that I don't have to bring it to your attention. And I really see all dis-ease in the body as a signal. Yes, there could be some biochemical or anatomic problem if it's progressed, but it's really stemming from a lot of these emotional and psychological issues. And you talk about the effectiveness of what you call pain relief psychology for alleviating deep stress. And it consists of personality traits, triggers, and unrecognized emotions from ACEs. Can you talk a little bit more about what pain relief psychology is? Dr. David (32:40): Yeah, you bet. What it's all about is uncovering the stresses that a person has in their life, whether they are in the present day. I mean, a very simple example was a patient of mine who only got his pain when he was driving to work. When he was driving home from work, he was fine on the weekends when he was not at work, he was fine too . So we kind of focused on, all right, what's going on at work? And, you know, that was a huge stress going on. So that was a very simple example. But more complicated is we're, we're trying to look at the long-term consequences of ACEs and the repressed emotions is a big one there. But we can also look at personality traits. Many people who've been through ACEs cope with those issues by developing certain personality traits. Their self-esteem, for one, is likely to be harmed and likely to be much lower than it deserves to be. Dr. David (33:30): Kids trying to cope with adversity oftentimes become very detail oriented, perfectionists. They tend not to be very assertive. They tend to focus on the needs of other people to the exclusion of putting themselves on the list of people. They take care of a whole long list of these personality traits that can be very stressful. But when you find out how you develop those personality traits, where they came from, who taught you these things about yourself that are not true, like, you know, you're a second rate or unworthy human being, and how did they teach those things to you? And we can understand that better. And that facilitates making changes in those personality traits, which then leads to a reduction in stress level. And then finally, I like to pay attention to triggers in someone's life. These are people, situations or events that are in some way linked to the past and are therefore very emotionally triggering. Dr. David (34:26): And the, the most common of those by far is that there's an ace perpetrator, you know, one of your parents usually that's still in your life today and is still mistreating you in some way. And that can lead to reactions in the body. One of my more dramatic examples of that is a patient who was hospitalized for a total of 51 days for her symptoms over a nine month period of time. And none of the many people who evaluated her asked her if anything stressful had happened right before she became ill. And it turned out that yes, something stressful had happened, which was that her father had a stroke and he was calling upon her for support. 3, 4, 5 days a week she'd be in his house helping him out. And this was a huge problem for her because she'd been avoiding her father for most of her adult life. Dr. David (35:18): And when I asked her why, she told me this story that nobody else had heard up to that point, which was that when she was six years old and her little brother was four, mom and dad had gone off to Las Vegas for a long weekend and she was staying with aunt and uncle on the Sunday that mom and dad were due to come back. They called up the aunt and uncle and they said, we're getting a divorce and we're not coming back. And that was the last she saw of her parents for the next 20 years. So there was, you know, enormous emotional tension in that relationship. Vinny has a stroke and she feels obligated as the daughter to go and help him out. But when she does that, and only is it difficult to be in his presence, as you might imagine, he's critical. If she doesn't do things exactly the way he wants her to, you know, you'd think he'd be grateful, but instead he doesn't hesitate to criticize her, which just twists the knife a little more. And not too surprising that she became physically ill in this situation, but nobody else had thought to delve into the possibility that her brain might be causing these symptoms, which are, if I haven't pointed it out yet, they're absolutely as real as symptoms from any other cause. Dr. Kyrin (36:30): You know, I love the examples you're giving. I think everyone's getting a really good idea. Wow, this could be me. My parents were divorced. I had just situations that are very adversarial and negative in our lives, but I think there's not a lot, a lot of acknowledgement about the emotional impact and now everybody's learning the physical impact. It was so interesting. I was recently traveling and I was in Dubai and I was having a problem with my right shoulder and arm, and I went to a physiotherapist and he did a bunch of manipulations, which really helped. And I started talking to him about emotions related to the different muscles and right arm, and it relates to the father's representation and all these things that I've studied over the years. And he said, what are you talking about ? He said he didn't know what I was talking about. Dr. Kyrin (37:21): And I said, well, you know, emotions can be stored in the body in different parts of the body or associated with different emotions. And he didn't, wasn't aware of this. But like you say, once you see it, you can't unsee it. So if you're listening to this, you're now having information that maybe your practitioners aren't aware of that you are going to be aware of, and you can start looking at your life. Wow, when do I get those migraines? Oh, let me see. It's about a couple days before this, such and such family members come to visit every time. And do I get stomach aches on the way to work? And there's some periodicity or relatedness to how you're living your life and the symptoms you're having. And when you start to sort that out, you can't unsee it. So how would someone get started? They can take your quiz. It might be possible that their practitioner is not versed in this. So how do you suggest that people get started having a proper assessment of pain relief psychology or I would say disease relief psychology? How do they go about doing this? Dr. David (38:29): Great place to start is with your physician to make sure that there's not a biomedical cause that you don't have an organ disease or an injury that could, the doctor thinks maybe there's a connection there, but you're not improving in the way that they expect. That would be another time to look and see if this psychophysiologic process could be contributing to your condition. And that 12 item quiz is a great place to start because it's got a lot of educational elements in it that can show you how some of these ideas might apply to you. And if they do, then we've got a lot of resources on the website that people can, it's end chronic pain.org that can help people delve into this more. There's a course on, there's several courses on there. Some of them are video, some of them are primarily text that can give you more information because information is the treatment here. Dr. David (39:23): The more you understand how this works, the more you understand how it applies to you, the more that you can do things to lead to improvement. This one of the techniques might be if you had an ace perpetrator in your life as a kid, writing a letter to that person. It's very challenging, as you pointed out earlier, to recognize that you might have some negative emotions towards someone that you also care about. And sorting that out, writing a letter to put those thoughts and feelings in there, both good and bad, not not to mail the letter just as an exercise, to write it as a way to take emotions and thoughts and feelings and put them into words that are written down that can pull ideas out of your head that you didn't necessarily know were there. And the more that you're able to do that, the less those things need to express themselves via the body. Dr. David (40:16): That's one of the techniques. There are apps for this that are very evidence-based, that one of them is called curable, that I recommend to patients. There are self-help books about this. We've got textbooks for healthcare professionals, but even the textbooks are written without jargon because we wanted the medical clinicians to be able to read the psychological material and vice versa. And one of the benefits of that is that if you're a science oriented reader, you can read one of these textbooks and get a lot out of it. I, I know psychophysiologic relief therapists who are prescribing even textbooks to their patients. Dr. Kyrin (40:56): Oh, I love that. Yeah. So definitely go to the website, we'll have the link in the show notes and take the quiz and start to investigate this. I mean, honestly, I think if you have any chronic condition, you could benefit from this. Definitely get a proper evaluation from your regular doctor. You might wanna also consider a functional approach, which I am particularly passionate about, and we often are able to fix and find root causes that mainstream medicine isn't able to address. But this even in a, from a functional perspective, is something that I think everybody should look into. I would be remiss if I didn't mention how this ties into hormones. And so briefly, because we're running out of time, I'm just gonna say that it ties in most likely to your cortisol stress hormone. 'cause We're talking about deep stress, we're talking about adverse childhood experiences, and this is going to deal with your HPA axis, hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis, which relates to your cortisol. So if you were wondering, Hey, Dr. Karen, are you gonna tie this into hormones? There we did it. Bam, , Dr. David (42:04): Yeah, it's an additional source of stress on top of everything else. Yeah. Dr. Kyrin (42:08): Yeah. So Dr. Clark, any parting words before we wrap up? Dr. David (42:13): You know, I'll just say the bottom line here is that the brain can generate symptoms in the body, and these symptoms are every bit as real and can be every bit as severe as symptoms from any other cause. So if you're looking for the body's defects as an explanation for the symptoms and you're not finding it, then think about whether the brain could be generating these symptoms. You know, a a classic example is phantom limb pain where somebody's had an amputation and yet they feel pain at the site where the limb is, you know, no longer exists. That pain is being generated in the brain and it is very powerful. I mean, it has put some of my patients in the hospital, one of my patients was a 17-year-old who I was asked to see on their 70th day in the hospital. Dr. David (43:02): They were getting 10 milligrams of morphine an hour. You know, for a kid this size, five or 10 milligrams would be enough to treat the pain of a fractured leg for your patient's. Not familiar with morphine doses. This patient was getting 10 milligrams every hour. That was when we found the stress, we treated it successfully, and the patient was off of the hospital in a week and off of all opioids in 30 days. So just being aware that the brain can do this and the brain does this because of stress, which may be deep stress, it may be stress you don't fully recognize, it may be stress from far in the past. So start looking for those things. Use the quiz to help you find what those things might be. And then finally, effective treatment is available. We've got half a dozen randomized controlled trials now published in very rigorous journals that show dramatic benefits when these underlying issues are brought into the open and dealt with successfully. Yes. Dr. Kyrin (44:00): And when you go take the quiz, when you get your results in your email, there's a resource page that Dr. Clark has with all kinds of books and just a plethora of resources. So you'll have lots there to help you on your way. Thank you so much, Dr. Clark, for joining me today. Dr. David (44:19): Thank you for having me. It was a pleasure speaking with you. Dr. Kyrin (44:22): And I'll just wrap up by sharing another quote that you shared with me before we started recording. I'll leave everyone with this because I think it really gets to the heart of what we're talking about. And it is from Rita Cheren, who's also a doctor, and it is the work of medicine. Inconsiderable part rests on the doctor's ability to listen to the stories that patients tell, to make sense of those often chaotic narratives of illness, to inspect and evaluate the listener's response to the story told to understand what these narratives mean and to be moved by them. I hope that you are inspired to look at your own possible deep stress and adverse childhood experiences and how it might be impacting your health to take the quiz, to educate yourself. I really think that this is the next frontier that in the future at some date will be self-evident. Dr. Kyrin (45:19): That of course, doctors need to be addressing this with their patients. But as long as you are here and you know about it, you can use this information to take action on your own behalf. You don't have to wait for your doctors to catch up. You can get the help that's available to you now. So something to think about. Look forward to hearing your thoughts. Reach out to me on social media and let me know what your thoughts are about this and how it's helped you. I'll see you again next week. Thanks so much for joining me. Until then, peace, love, and hormones, y'all. Dr. Kyrin (45:54): Thank you so much for listening.

"Sự trưởng thành" là thứ khó tìm được sự nhất quán trong định nghĩa, nhưng Trí nghĩ một trong những điều kiện của nó có thể là việc có "một chuỗi ngày tệ đến phát điên". Tập này Trí nói về 2 thứ khủng-hoảng mà khả năng cao tuổi trẻ thời nay hay dính nhất: Existential (Hiện sinh) và Fundamental (Trí tạm chưa dịch). I. Existential crisis: câu hỏi lớn của nó là "mình thực sự là ai?", hoặc "mình là gì với tất cả?" Trí luôn xem trạng thái cơ bản trong cuộc khủng hoảng này là "overwhelming", tức là... choáng ngợp. II. Fundamental crisis: câu hơn lớn của nó là "mình thực sự muốn gì?". Với Trí thì đây là cuộc khủng hoảng về lựa chọn: một là làm quá nhiều, hai là không dám làm gì cả. Trạng thái cơ bản của nó (theo kinh nghiệm của Trí) là "underwhelming", nghĩa là mình luôn cảm giác "chưa đủ" và cứ làm mọi thứ tự do một cách vô định. Trí có nói về tác giả Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821-1881) với các cuốn sách mang tính nền tảng cho hiện sinh học như: The Idiot, Notes from Underground. Ông cũng là cây viết hiếm hoi (cùng Arthur Schopenhauer) được Nietzsche ngưỡng mộ. Cuối cùng, Trí nói về câu hỏi Trí hay thường được nhận là: "Làm sao để đi qua các cuộc khủng hoảng?" Quan điểm của Trí là, nếu Trí có thể nói chính xác cho cá nhân bạn thì tất cả chúng ta đều sai. Do đó, nó là thứ mà Trí hay thường nói "tốt nhất là cứ đặt câu hỏi nhưng không mong cầu câu trả lời". Các lựa chọn tiếp theo của bạn sẽ điều hướng tất cả, cho chính mình. --- Trí cám ơn Men Stay Simplicity #menstaysimplicity đã đồng hành cùng Trí trong episode này.

Chapter 1 What's The Wisdom of Life Book by Arthur SchopenhauerThe Wisdom of Life is a book written by Arthur Schopenhauer, a 19th-century German philosopher. In this work, Schopenhauer discusses various aspects of human existence and provides insights on how to live a fulfilled and meaningful life.The book explores topics such as happiness, suffering, relationships, art, and the pursuit of knowledge. Schopenhauer argues that true happiness can be achieved by minimizing desires and cultivating inner virtues. He emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, self-discipline, and compassion towards others.Additionally, Schopenhauer contends that intellectual pursuits, especially the contemplation of art, can provide a temporary escape from the hardships of life. He also explores the nature of human relationships, arguing that solitude should be embraced and that one should rely on oneself for happiness rather than seeking fulfillment through others.Overall, The Wisdom of Life offers Schopenhauer's philosophical reflections on how to navigate the complexities of human existence and find personal fulfillment in the face of life's challenges.Chapter 2 Is The Wisdom of Life Book A Good BookThe Wisdom of Life by Arthur Schopenhauer is generally considered a significant philosophical work, in which the author examines various aspects of human existence, happiness, and the pursuit of fulfillment. It explores topics such as love, aesthetics, the value of suffering, and the search for meaning in life. While opinions may vary, many readers find the book thought-provoking and insightful. If you have an interest in philosophical discussions on the nature of human life, it may be worth exploring.Chapter 3 The Wisdom of Life Book by Arthur Schopenhauer Summary"The Wisdom of Life" is a philosophical book written by Arthur Schopenhauer, the renowned German philosopher. In this work, Schopenhauer delves into the nature of human existence, happiness, and the pursuit of a meaningful life.The book is divided into four main sections, each exploring different aspects of human life and its challenges. In the first section, Schopenhauer discusses the art of living and provides practical advice on various aspects of life, such as health, wealth, and relationships. He emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and self-control in attaining a fulfilling life. Schopenhauer also examines the concept of happiness and argues that it cannot be attained through external possessions or achievements but rather by cultivating inner peace and contentment.In the second section, Schopenhauer explores the role of intellect and knowledge in human life. He criticizes the obsession with academic learning and argues that true wisdom lies in self-reflection and understanding the limitations and shortcomings of human existence. Schopenhauer distinguishes between book knowledge and practical wisdom, emphasizing the latter as more valuable for leading a meaningful life.The third section of the book focuses on the nature of love and relationships. Schopenhauer paints a rather pessimistic picture of romantic relationships, highlighting the inherent selfishness and desires that often accompany them. He advises against placing too much importance on external validation and instead suggests finding contentment within oneself. Schopenhauer's views on love and relationships have been controversial and have influenced subsequent thinkers such as Friedrich Nietzsche.In the final section of the book, Schopenhauer discusses the inevitability of suffering and the importance of accepting it as an integral part of life. He argues that the pursuit of pleasure and the avoidance of pain often lead to dissatisfaction and disappointment....

As a horror movie, John Carpenter's The Thing seems to have it all: amazing practical effects, body horror, psychological drama, Kurt Russell ... Indeed, there is only one element this movie lacks, and that is anything at all corresponding to the titular villain. There is no thing in The Thing! What we have instead is a process, a pattern, a way for which the term "thing" is as good as any other. (What is a thing anyway?) In this episode, Phil and JF, having decided that Carpenter's film qualifies as a Christmas movie because there is snow (and a dog) in it, explore the metaphysical implications of a cult classic.

A friend rotated my brain toward the subject of fame.He aimed my eyes in a new direction when he said, “Do you remember that thing you sent me 10 or 15 years ago?”I gave him the same blank look that you would have given him.He continued, “It was that thing Leonard Pitts wrote about being ‘the Man.'”I recovered it from the Random Quotes database at MondayMorningMemo.com, handed my phone to him and told him to read it out loud. When he was finished, we laughed together like two little boys who heard someone fart in church.Here it is:“I've got nothing against fame. I'm famous myself. Sort of.OK, not Will Smith famous. Or Ellen DeGeneres famous. All right, not even Marilu Henner famous.I'm the kind of famous where you fly into some town to give a speech before that shrinking subset of Americans who still read newspapers and, for that hour, they treat you like a rock star, applauding, crowding around, asking for autographs.Then it's over. You walk through the airport the next day and no one gives a second glance. You are nobody again.Dave Barry told me this story once about Mark Russell, the political satirist. It seems Russell gave this performance where he packed the hall, got a standing O. He was The Man. Later, at the hotel, The Man gets hungry, but the only place to eat is a McDonald's across the road. The front door is locked, but the drive-through is still open. So he stands in it. A car pulls in behind him. The driver honks and yells, “Great show, Mark!”The moral of the story is that a certain level of fame — call it the level of minor celebrity — comes with a built-in reality check. One minute, you're the toast of Milwaukee. The next, you're standing behind a Buick waiting to order a Big Mac.”– Leonard Pitts, January 14, 2008There is something about laughing with a friend that soaks into your heart and redirects your thoughts.I woke up the next morning thinking about fame, and how easily it comes and goes.I thought about Bill Cosby and Jim Bakker and Jimmy Swaggart. And then my computer told me “Joe the Plumber” had died. Remember Joe the Plumber? He became a celebrity in 2008 when he asked Barack Obama a question. We learned later that his name wasn't Joe and he was never a plumber, but his perspective resonated with a lot of Americans.And then it hit me: Andy Warhol was a painter, but what we remember about him was his colorful comment about each person receiving “15 minutes of fame.”I could feel the freight train of curiosity gaining momentum in my mind, so I had to quickly decide whether to grab a handrail, swing aboard and see where it would take me, or spend the rest of the day regretting having missed the chance.I didn't want to live in regret, so I grabbed a handrail and was yanked off my feet into a noisy, rattling railcar.When my eyes had grown accustomed to the dust and the half-light, I found the following 19 statements carved into the wooden walls of that railcar. These statements were signed by Marilyn Monroe, Johnny Depp, Erma Bombeck, Tony Bennett, Emily Dickinson, John Wooden, Gene Tierney, Jack Kerouac, George Michael, Eddie Van Halen, Sinead O'Connor, Fran Lebowitz, Michael Huffington, Lord Byron, Arthur Schopenhauer, Michelle Pfeiffer, Clive James, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Davy Crockett.But not in that order. I'm not going to tell you who said what, because I don't want your reactions to be influenced by your memories of those people.“Wealth is like sea-water; the more we drink, the thirstier we become; and the same is true of fame.”“Fame is the thirst of youth.”“Don't confuse fame with success. Madonna is one; Helen Keller is the other.”“Fame comes and goes. Longevity...

Lia, a German born in Kyrgyzstan, currently serving with her husband as a missionary in Australia, along with their two book-loving children. We start off the interview hearing Lia tell about her young life and how she started loving English literature. She talks about her parents and grandparents' reading lives and the legacy of loving books that they left for her. She also shares how literary analysis and symbolism teaching in high school and college challenged her enjoyment of literature. Lia tells about how she stopped reading in university because she was too busy but then started reading again once she became a mother. Lia and Angelina share some examples of crazy literary theory that is taught in university programs, and how that confused and discouraged Lia so much. She also tells the story of finding The Literary Life podcast and taking classes with Angelina. They wrap up the conversation with some encouragement for readers looking for the meaning in the stories they read.  Join us next time for a discussion of Plato's Ion, led by Mr. Banks!

Its greatest use to the child is in the everlasting appeal of beauty by which the soul of man is constantly pricked to new hungers, quickened to new perceptions, and so given desire to grow… The storyteller…has, in short, accomplished the one greatest aim of story-telling,–to enlarge and enrich the child's spiritual experience, and stimulate healthy reaction upon it. Of course this result cannot be seen and proved as easily and early as can the apprehension of a fact. The most one can hope to recognize is its promise, and this is found in the tokens of that genuine pleasure which is itself the means of accomplishment. Sara Cone Bryant, from How to Tell Stories to Children Every thirty years a new race comes into the world–a youngster that knows nothing about anything, and after summarily devouring in all haste the results of human knowledge as they have been accumulated for thousands of years, aspires to be thought cleverer than the whole of the past. For this purpose he goes to the university, and takes to reading books–new books, as being of his own age and standing. Everything he reads must be briefly put, must be new, as he is new himself. Then he falls to and criticizes. Arthur Schopenhauer, “On Men of Learning” What has drawn the modern world into being is a strange, almost occult yearning for the future. The modern mind longs for the future as the medieval mind longed for heaven. Wendell Berry, from The Unsettling of America In these days, when Mr. Bernard Shaw is becoming gradually, amid general applause, the Grand Old Man of English letters, it is perhaps ungracious to record that he did once say there was nobody, with the possible exception of Homer, whose intellect he despised to so much as Shakespeare's. He has since said almost enough sensible things to outweigh even anything so silly as that. But I quote it because is exactly embodies the nineteenth-century notion of which I speak. Mr. Shaw had probably never read Home; and there were passages in his Shakespearean criticism that might well raise a doubt about whether he ever read Shakespeare. But the point was that he could not, in all sincerity, see what the world saw in Home and Shakespeare, because what the world saw was not what G. B. S. was then looking for. He was looking for that ghastly thing which Nonconformists call a Message. G. K. Chesterton, from The Soul of Wit: G. K. Chesterton on William Shakespeare Still ist de Nacht by Heinrich Heine Still is the night, and the streets are lone,      My darling dwelt in this house of yore; ‘Tis years since she from the city has flown,      Yet the house stands there as it did before. There, too, stands a man, and aloft stares he,      And for stress of anguish he wrings his hands; My blood runs cold when his face I see,      ‘Tis my own very self in the moonlight stands. Thou double! Thou fetch, with the livid face!      Why dust thou mimic my lovelorn mould, That was racked and rent in this very place      So many a night in the times of old?

"It is difficult to find happiness within oneself," said the German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860), "but it is impossible to find it anywhere else." In spite of his pessimism - or perhaps because of it - Schopenhauer, who was virtually unknown until the last few years of his life, went on to influence generations of writers, artists, philosophers, and composers. In this episode, Jacke looks at the life, legacy, and worldview of this darkest of men, including some thoughts on what it feels like to read Schopenhauer today.
