This is a special replay of an episode of the REJUVENAGING with Dr. Ron Kaiser podcast that was first posted on February 2023.Life isn't always easy. Sometimes it can seem like your to-do list is never-ending. Other times you're dealing with sudden loss or grief. Whatever it is that life throws at you, it can be difficult to process and easy for bad habits to prevail. But what if there was a way to deal with life's hardships, or even just evolve into a better version of yourself? Mindfulness is a mental state achieved through awareness. Those who practice it see improvements in things like concentration, self-control, objectivity, and emotional intelligence. Donald Altman is a psychotherapist and mindfulness expert. A former Buddhist monk, Donald is an international workshop trainer whose passions lie in applying ancient practices in the modern world to help people deal with self-growth, relationships, and workplace dynamics. Donald is also an award-winning author, having penned over 20 books in his lifetime.

I mean, you're looking at somebody who can be a class a jerk from time to time. And so I am mindful of how my quick words or snotty snide remarks might affect someone. That can hold me back. Thoughts on Breathing On the topic of breathing, In the book, I quote the work of Dr. Sharon Melnick, Ph.D. She's a clinical psychologist on the topic of resilience. Dr. Melnick talks about breathing techniques, as does Donald Altman, whom I also quote. So breathing from the diaphragm is important. But when you are speaking, do what opera singers do; breathe from your diaphragm, so you're more filled with air. When we do this deep breathing thing, we are becoming more physically centered, and I like to think that we're also emotionally centered that way too, Bruce.

He talked about the harmful impact of a “Bully Boss” who denigrates others and lacks empathy. Mindfulness, he believes, is essential in coaching to create self-awareness and encourage personal growth. While it might not work with sociopaths, helping others adopt a different perspective can address bullying behavior. Being mindful allows us to recognize our imperfections and strive to improve for a better future. Words of Wisdom Look for the good in others. Try to look for virtues.

At one level or another, we all carry around some form of baggage, trauma, adversity, or pain from the past. Whether it’s a result of what others have done to us, what we have done to others, or even the harm we’ve done to ourselves, this inner emotional clutter directly affects our ability to live a fulfilling life.   n Clearing Emotional Clutter: Mindfulness Practices for Letting Go of What’s Blocking Your Fulfillment and Transformation  (March 8, 2016), psychotherapist, author, and former Buddhist monk Donald Altman offers readers easy-to-use daily practices designed to dissolve emotional clutter, whether it is old emotional wreckage from their childhood or new emotional clutter that they take on every day. Clearing Emotional Clutter is built around Six Clutter-Clearing Mindfulness Skills, which can be accessed through the acronym PAIR UP:  Present Moment Participation, Attuned Acceptance, Intentionality, Reflection, Understanding of Suffering, and Purposeful Partnership. Throughout the book, Altman shows readers how to apply these skills to become more centered in the present moment, and promises that when they practice one of the mindfulness skills, they are actually practicing all of them.

On this episode of Exploring Mind and Body I have the opportunity to interview Donald Altman who is the author of Clearing Emotional Clutter. I feel like so many of us carry around our past, we're weighed down emotionally and haven't learned how to let go. I like the example Donald used in the interview as he talks about Hoarding. Many of us have watched the show hoarders, and many of us have thought, 'how could they live that way'. I'd imagine if you could look deep into our emotions, you'll find emotional hoarding in most of us. As a psychotherapist Donald has an interesting way of looking at the mind and helping us understand how to let go of mind clutter. He even discusses how we can retrain our brain and way of thinking so we can have more positive thoughts and emotions. Who is Donald Altman?
