Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about forgiveness and the mind. Forgiveness is more than just a word or action. It is something that that affects us mentally, emotionally and spiritually. It helps us heal n ways we are only just beginning to understand. This is due to the law of entanglement in quantum physics, which keeps everything in a relationship—toxic or otherwise—entangled, affecting each component. Forgiveness helps us sever the toxic hold someone who hurt us has over us. It helps us disconnect from the source of our pain and find true healing.

This is the third episode in Stephen's series, The Mindset To Freedom. He'll share his personal experience of the darkest moments of loss in his life, personally and professionally.

Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about what happens when boundaries collide in relationships, and how to navigate tense situations. This is part 1 of a 2 part series. Boundaries are a hot topic these days. Many people post about the importance of boundaries, how to set them and how to respect them, all of which are important. Boundaries help us build stronger relationships with the people in our life. They help us increase our respect for ourselves as we learn how to recognize our own limits and protect our mental health, while acknowledging that other people also have their limits. Once we start setting our own boundaries and respecting other people's boundaries, we tend to see a huge improvement in our own mental health and in our relationships. The more we set our own boundaries, the more we learn to understand and respect the boundaries of the people in our lives.

Intrusive thinking is can be defined as uncontrollable, unwanted thoughts that we feel unable to resist. This kind of thinking is often a way of coping with an underlying, unresolved issue. It's not always the most effective or sustainable way to deal with pain or trauma, but it's a coping mechanism—a type of distraction you use to try to keep the source of your pain bearable, at least in the short term.

Likewise, many of us may find ourselves reflecting back on the previous year, and sometimes that reflection comes with a lot of regret.

In this episode, we start with a quick refresher of what thoughts and feelings are and where they come from. We then take it a little further and introduce memories and triggers. These are related in the fact that triggers surface as a result of a memory that was made in the past. This collection of thoughts created feelings at the time it was integrated in our mind and brain. Then, when an internal or external stimulus arises that triggers that memory, you experience those feelings all over again. Sometimes it serves you and sometimes it doesn't. This episode encourages recognition of the triggers and then seeking to figure out where they came from. Then doing the work to try to reframe that thought to produce a better feeling that produces a result that works for you now. Acknowledgment goes to the amazing Dr Caroline Leaf and all of her work around the mind, brain and body connection.

This episode originally aired in January of 2021 Head Strong In this episode of the Manlihood ManCast, Josh Hatcher talks about the building the muscle of your mind. We hear a lot of talk about physical exercise and strength building. Which is good! But we need to talk about building up the mind, too. Garbage In / Garbage Out What we consume affects what we produce. Doing reps We need to use affirmations to build up and tone muscle. Repeat truth to yourself until you believe it. Powerlifting If you want to be headstrong, it takes time. You've got to keep working it over time. I can guarantee you, you are already stronger than you think you are. Discipline equals freedom. We think of discipline as uncomfortable - but you've got to TRAIN your brain how to think. It literally rewrites your brain chemistry! (Look up Dr. Caroline Leaf's research on this!) If you build healthy habits in the way you think, it really does set you free. But it takes discipline! ----------- Get REIGNITE: A MAN'S FIELD GUIDE TO TAKING BACK HIS LIFE http://www.manlihood.com/reignite/ Join the ManCave Today: http://facebook.com/groups/manlihoodmancave ---------------- Do you have a question you'd like to have answered on The Manlihood ManCast?

Hi! I am your host Esther Yunkin. I am a registered nurse with over 20 years of experience. I grew fed up in the emergency department, where I saw people get short-term bandaids to chronic problems, so I went back to school for holistic health. Now I help overwhelmed moms discover simple and sustainable solutions without getting overwhelmed. WHAT IS HASHIMOTO'S THYROIDITIS? Quickly, Hashimoto's is when you have antibodies to your own thyroid. Your immune system is attacking your thyroid. Your thyroid produces thyroid hormone which is like the spark plug that lets each cell work. So when you have Hashimoto's, every single cell in your entire body is impacted. That's Hashimoto's in a nutshell. In this podcast, you will discover how to help your thyroid, how to help your immune system, and how to holistically help you: body, mind, spirit, diet, and environment. This podcast is for informational and educational purposes. Please discuss any questions or concerns with your healthcare professional.

Thankfully we were safe in the studio, and no significant weather-related damage occurred where our offices are located! In this podcast I talk about something that I battle with: “if only/should have/could have” thinking, and how I manage my mind to overcome this negative mental spiral. If we are constantly trapped in a web of “if only/I can't/could have/would have/should have”, this kind of thinking can quickly become a toxic mindset that changes our perspective—the way we see and respond to the world. I know, I have been there many times! This is really something I have struggled with my whole life. Regrets and ruminations can really catch you in their snare and keep you stuck in a negative thought spiral, which, in turn, can impact your mental wellbeing.

Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about one of the best ways to improve your mental health and resilience: a possibilities mindset! First, it is important to understand what a mindset is. It is how we view the world—it generates our perspective, which shapes the way we interact with our environment, that is the choices we make as we respond to what happens to us, and as we choose what to think, say and do. Why are mindsets so important? Mindsets direct our perceptions and subsequent actions. When we understand HOW our mind works and how mindsets are formed, we can direct our mind where we want it to go, what structures we want it to build in our brain, and ultimately choose how we want our life to look. Mindsets teach us how to shape our life stories.

Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app SHOW DESCRIPTION: n this podcast I talk about several helpful ways to get out of a shame spiral. In our society today, it can be hard to feel any degree of self-worth. We are bombarded with the shame of not living up to our own expectations, or the expectations of others. We cannot live up to the photoshopped and retouched images that seem to tell us that to be happy, we must look, dress or act in a certain way, or get straight As and go to an Ivy League university. We are not able to compete with celebrities and influencers—we are just one social media ‘like' in a sea of admirers, wishing to be someone or do something. It is easy to give in to these voices, listen to them and allow them to take root inside our heads. It is easy to fall into a “shame spiral,” feeling like you will never be able to live up to what society deems as worthy. How can we escape this spiral? How can we quit the system and be happy being who we really are at our core? How can we learn to be comfortable with who we are and where we are in life?

Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about why we need to change the way we think about mental health. This podcast is part 8 of my series on the different parts of the mind and brain. As mentioned in my previous podcasts on this topic, The Difference Between the Nonconscious, Subconscious & Conscious Mind (part 1), How to Tap Into the Nonconscious Mind to Unwire Trauma & Toxic Thinking Habits (part 2), How to Listen to & Learn from Your Mental & Physical Warning Signals (part 3), The Difference Between Thoughts & Memories (part 4), What is the Mind? (part 5), How to Make Intrusive Thoughts Work for You, Not Against You(part 6), and Neuroplasticity: What It Is & How to Harness Its Power for Your Benefit (part 7), when you consciously engage the nonconscious mind through deliberate, intentional, strategic, and proactive deep thinking, you draw your thoughts, with their embedded memories, through the subconscious mind and into the conscious mind. When these thoughts arrive in the conscious mind, they're in a malleable state, which means you can change them and reconceptualize them—you can change the way they impact your life.

We've come a long way when it comes to understanding mental health, but just like many other areas of science and biology, we still have a lot to learn. As rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide skyrocket, it's more important than ever to have conversations about mental health. It's even more imperative that those conversations are centered around knowledge and empowerment, and that's what I love about today's guest. Dr. Caroline Leaf is a cognitive neuroscientist and bestselling author who specializes in mind management. Today she's back on The Model Health Show to share the importance of managing your mind, and specific details on how the human mind actually works. You'll learn why mental health is a prerequisite for overall health, how toxic thoughts create inflammation, and the interesting science behind how your environment influences your mind. This episode is full of enlightening conversations like the concept of human consciousness and biofield, polypharmacy and what's behind Americans' declining life expectancy, and how managing our emotions can increase immune function. You'll learn about the epigenetic controllers of mental health, and the five-step process you can use to change the way you think. I hope you enjoy this interview with Dr. Caroline Leaf! In this episode you'll discover: An important distinction between the brain and the mind. How the mind-brain-body connection works. The three parts of the mind. What percentage of the mind is your consciousness. How the non-conscious mind works. The impact your environment has on your non-conscious mind. How your mind can affect the way your body absorbs nutrition. Why reframing how you define success is critical. How toxic thoughts can upset your body's balance. An important conversation on human lifespan & increasing rates of disease. The role environment plays in mental health. How to change your brain and immune function. What influence genetics has on depression. The connection between inflammation, stress hormones, & thoughts. How our compartmentalized healthcare system isolates the mind. Five steps of the Neurocycle. The power of utilizing instinctive elaboration intentionally. Why failure is a misnomer.
