With the help of therapy, self-awareness, and mindfulness techniques, she reveals how recognizing physical cues and planning ahead can transform anger into clarity and control. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://buddingoptimist.com/how-to-release-anger/ Quotes to ponder: "Nobody was making me angry. In fact, nothing in this world had or has any real ability to make anybody feel angry." "I had the option, at every step leading to that final dish-breaking scene, to let go of my anger and pick a different response." "Now whenever I notice any of these signs I would make a mental note that I was starting to feel angry."

Ask David-- The Fear of Happiness! Although we had five questions for today's Ask David episode, we spend the entire podcast on the first question from a man with an intense fear of happiness. He wrote: How can I use exposure to overcome my fear of happiness? Hi David, How would you do exposure for the fear of happiness? Whenever I feel happy I immediately feel afraid because I had a very strict religious upbringing where many harmless forms of fun and enjoyment were completely forbidden. Even though I'm no longer a religious believer, the fear remains. Feeling good then makes me afraid, anxious and insomniac. This often goes on for days after something good happens and it almost seems as if I AM being punished after all! How can I recover when feeling good makes me feel so bad? Love your work and all that you do. Best regards, Tomas David's reply As I have said on numerous occasions, I do NOT recommend “methods” (like exposure) for “problems” (like your “fear of happiness.”) I think your problem is very treatable, but I work with patients systematically, and that doesn't mean starting out with a “method,” like exposure or any other method. I use a step by step approach, using T = Testing, E – Empathy, A = Assessment of Resistance, and M = Methods in a sequence. In addition, when I work with anxiety, I always incorporate these four approaches with every patient I work with: The Motivational Model: I bring Outcome and Process Resistance to conscious awareness and melt them away, if possible, using a variety of TEAM CBT approaches. The Cognitive Model: This involves a well-done Daily Mood Log to identify and challenge the distorted negative thoughts at one moment in time. The Exposure Model: Facing your fears, or testing them with an experiment. This is frightening, but required of every anxious patient. The Hidden Emotion Model: This is based on the idea that only “nice” people struggle with anxiety, with only a few exceptions, and that an unacknowledged problem is often hiding right behind the anxiety. The cure requires the Detective Step: identifying what the hidden emotion or feeling is. The Action Step: Expressing the suppressed feeling and or dealing with the problem you are avoiding. Your fear of happiness is an interesting problem for sure. One of my favorite movies, “Babette's Feast,” involves this theme. If you want some help, you could send me a partially completed Daily Mood Log. You will discover that you are the only one who is doing the punishing! It is that belittling, intimidating voice in your own head that is causing 100% of your suffering. I look forward to helping you challenge those voices! In the meantime, I'll add this to the latest Ask David podcast questions, in the hopes you might send the DML, and then Rhonda and I can comment in greater depth on the live program. Best, david Tomas kindly sent a Daily Mood Log, which you can see if you CLICK HERE As you can see, the Upsetting Event is simply “studying mathematics,” something he loves. However, he has the belief that if he allows himself to enjoy this or any activity, something terrible will happen to him. He traces this to a strict religious upbringing, and perhaps also to bullying he endured as a kid. You can see that this is intensely upsetting to him. If you look you will see that in 8 of the 9 categories of emotions on his Daily Mood Log (DML), he scores in the range of 80 to 100, which is intense and severe to extreme. The only emotion category that is not extremely elevated is the anger cluster, which he rated at only 40. You can see as well that his negative thoughts all involve the theme of punishment and destruction if he allows himself to feel happiness and enjoyment of life, or if he advances himself in life. In some of the emails he sent me, he traces this back to being bullied when young. . . possibly by kids who were jealous of his high IQ. As mentioned above, I don't throw methods (like exposure) at people based on a problem or diagnosis (in his case a phobia, the fear of happiness.) I also mentioned that I go through the T E A M model in a sequence, starting with Testing and Empathy, followed by the Assessment of Resistance and culminating in Methods. In addition, I always treat anxious patients with four powerful models, including the Motivational Model, the Cognitive Model, the Exposure Model, and the Hidden Emotion Model. I described these models above. The Motivational Model The Outcome Resistance has to do with the fact that Tomas may resist treatment because of his fear of the consequences of successfully achieving happiness. We will deal with that with Positive Reframing, including the Miracle Cure Question, the Magic Button, Positive Reframing, and the Magic Dial. In addition, we'll have to deal with Process Resistance. At some point, we will have to use exposure techniques, and we will want to find out if he's WILLING to do exposure even though it may be extremely anxiety provoking at first. We can dangle the carrot, letting him know that we anticipate a positive outcome, but also understand that facing his worst fears may be terrifying at first, and very uncomfortable. I will not try to persuade him to use any of the many versions of Exposure. He will have to persuade me that he's willing to do it. I suspect he will be, because he is asking for exposure, but if he says he wants to be treated without exposure, I will have to let him know I am not a good choice as a therapist for him! That's because I don't know how to defeat any form of anxiety without exposure. Of course, I cannot treat Tomas, or anyone, through an Ask David, but can only make teaching points. But I am teaching self-help techniques that have been helpful to many people. In an email, I asked him the Magic Button question, and he said he didn't think he'd push it. This indicates some understandable resistance that has to be dealt with. Positive Reframing is one way to deal with Outcome Resistance. The goal is not only deeper empathy but also helping patients “see” that the negative thoughts and feelings they are struggling so desperately to overcome are actually positive in many ways. Once they “see” this, it is kind of a pleasant shock to the system, and their resistance to change typically disappears. Then we ask them to set goals for each negative feelings—a lower level of each feeling that would allow them to feel better and not lose all the wonderful positives we have discovered. That's why it's better NOT to push the Magic Button. To help Tomas or anyone see and list the positives in their negative thoughts and feelings, we ask two key questions about each one: What are some possible advantages, or benefits, of this negative thought or feeling? How might it help me? What does this negative thought or feeling show about me and my core values as a human being that's positive and awesome? Typically, this leads to list of 10 to 20 positives that have three characteristics. To give you an example, his intense loneliness is an expression of his love for people and the great value he sees in meaningful relationships. And his anxiety serves to protect him from danger, and is therefore an expression of self-love. And his feelings of inferiority—in spite of his tremendous intelligence—show humility, which is not only a spiritual quality, but also can make a person of great intelligence more accessible, more vulnerable, and more attractive. Inferiority may also be an expression of his honesty and willingness to acknowledge his shortcomings, as well as his accountability. We could easily go on and on, and it might be a great exercise for you to try find the positives in several other of his negative thoughts and feelings by asking those two questions. Once my patient and I have listed 10 or more positives, I ask if these positives are True and valid? Powerful? Important? Nearly always, I get a resounding YES to each question. Then I use the Magic Dial to see what they might want to dial each negative feeling down to in the % Goal column of the Daily Mood Log. Is this Positive Reframing process straightforward? Easy? Not really. I make it look easy, because when I teach I want people to understand, but “seeing” these positives is, in reality, incredibly challenging for most people. In fact, You can see the Positive Reframing that Tomas completed on his own if you CLICK HERE As you can see Tomas almost completely missed the boat when he tried to identify the positives in his negative thoughts and feelings. I mention this because it is a CRUCIAL step in TEAM CBT, and people often have a tremendously hard time “seeing” the positives in their negative thoughts and feelings. A big part of the reason is that society teaches us the opposite. In fact, negative feelings are Labeled as a bewildering array of more than 200 so-called “mental disorders” by the American Psychiatric Association in their “bible,” the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.) But here's something even MORE surprising. Rhonda—a highly respected and admired TEAM CBT therapist and teacher—also struggles to find the positives during today's podcast. Once someone has pointed them out, you can suddenly “see” them. But on your own, you may have a lot of trouble at first with Positive Reframing, which is anything but simple, but extraordinarily powerful once you “get it.” I recently told my weekly Tuesday psychotherapy training group at Stanford that TEAM CBT is extraordinarily difficult to learn and master—nearly always requiring years of study and practice—and perhaps the most challenging form of psychotherapy ever developed. She was angry and told me I'd have to do large controlled outcome studies to validate that claim! Yikes! I may be wrong, and there could be other more difficult forms of therapy, but I still believe what I'm saying because I see it every single day. Many of the most powerful and helpful concepts, such as the four “Great Deaths” of the “self” for the therapist and for the patient in TEAM, and the Acceptance Paradox, and more are hard to learn! But worth it, IF you take the time to learn this method. And if you wish to use TEAM CBT, on yourself (for self-help) or with your patients (if you're a therapist) you will have much greater success after you master this powerful but elusive skill. The Cognitive Model After Rhonda and I worked with Positive Reframing, we went on to the technique that usually starts the M = Methods section, called “Explain the Distortions.” This powerful method includes answering three questions about one or several of the distortions you can find in one of the thoughts you want to work on first. First, select the thought and identify all the distortions in it, listing them by abbreviations in the Distortion column on your Daily Mood Log. For example, if it is an example of All-or-Nothing you can put AON in that column. And you can put OG for Overgeneralization, and so forth. Often, you will find five or even ten distortions in a single negative thought. Let's say you work on, “If I'm happy, I'll be destroyed.” This alarming thought includes AON; LAB, FT, DP, and ER. And it's also a Hidden SS. Choose the distortion you want to work on first. Let's say it's Fortune Telling (FT). Why is this distortion, FT, considered a thinking error in general? Why does the FT distortion your specific thought pretty much make the thought unreasonable? In other words, Why does the FT in your thought NOT map onto reality? And finally, why is the FT is this thought unfair? As an exercise, turn off the podcast for a moment and write down your answers to those three questions. Once you're done, you can check the answers at the end of the show notes. It's a great skill to practice and learn, because it will usually make it really easy for you to generate positive thoughts that satisfy the necessary and sufficient conditions for emotional change. Do you know what they are? Write them down before you look at the answers at the end of the show notes. Just take a guess, but WRITE SOMETHING DOWN before you look! But DON'T look until you've written down your own answers! Hey, did you peek, or did you write down the answers first? I get it! And I forgive you! However, you missed out on a great opportunity for learning if you skipped the written exercise. Or, to put it positively, I try to make the exercises fun and interesting. And if you do them, you'll learn some cool and helpful things rapidly. It's like riding a bicycle. You've got to get on and ride to learn how to do it! But here's what's really interesting. You'll notice that Rhonda, once again, really struggles with this exercise during the podcast. Although I think of Explain the Distortions as a really easy TEAM CBT method, experience with real people has over and over again provided abundant evidence that it's NOT easy for many, or possibly most, people at first. So, what's the point? Here's the point. If you're a therapist, this method is powerful, and will richly reward you for the time and effort you spend in learning how to do it! But you cannot take it for granted if you want to use it in an actual therapy session. And if you are simply looking for self-help, the exact same thing is true: the method is incredibly helpful and well worth some time and effort to “get it!” In addition, to challenging the obviously distorted thoughts on his Daily Mood Log, what other methods might be helpful to Tomas? The Exposure Model Well, there are a great many, including the Exposure techniques he was asking for. For example, he could intentionally make himself happy, and then fantasize some horrible punishment using Cognitive Flooding. The idea would be to make himself as anxious as possible for as long as possible, until he finally gets bored with the fantasy, which will definitely happen eventually, and the anxiety disappears. Exposure is terrifying at first, and it is supposed to be. That's whey and how it works! The Hidden Emotion Model There are many helpful variations on the Exposure front, and the Hidden Emotion Model might also be key. Is there some problem or issue in his life that Tomas is not dealing with? The Class on this technique in the (now entirely free for the summer of 2025 app) Feeling Great app has many details and exercises and examples to show how this mind-blowing technique works. That's it for today's podcast. I want to thank you, Tomas, for providing us with a fascinating problem, and all of you who send in your questions. We are SO GRATEFUL that you are bouncing back, Rhonda, after your ordeal with radiation therapy for your lymphoma, and send you all our love and best wishes for joyful and complete healing and liberation from your nightmare! Warmly, Rhonda and David Answers Here is my answer to first exercise on the necessary and sufficient conditions for emotional change from a positive thought. . The necessary condition for emotional change: The Positive Thought must be 100% correct. The sufficient condition for emotional change: The Positive Thought must reduce your belief in the disturbing negative thought. Sometimes you'll want to reduce it all the way to zero. Sometimes, that's not necessary, especially with Should Statements. Here are my answers to the three questions about Explain the Distortions above. In general, FT is a thinking error when you are making arbitrary alarming predictions without strong evidence that supports those predictions. In particular, there is no evidence that supports the claim that people who feel happy rapidly become the victims of some horrific disaster or punishment. This thought is very unrealistic because the ONLY punishment that Tomas has experienced is the result of his own negative thoughts! This thought is unfair because it puts Tomas in handcuffs so he will be unable to enjoy his life.
So, tell me about yourself. The most dreaded question ever. We rarely take the time to think through our narratives. Our focus should be on how they make us feel and how they make others feel. Being a good storyteller means learning to edit out the details that bog down the story. Think light and sweet, with a hint of mystery—aka omission. This week, we talk about turning down the floodlight so your potential partner can only see your confidence and inner knowing. In the relationship reading (00:12:13), you're getting to know this person. It looks like your person is very busy. Be patient. Don't overthink or overwhelm this budding relationship with all your details and trauma. When you get this person's time, be a break from their hustle. Make it fun and lighthearted. Happy Birthday, Leos! We end with Leo Season Horoscopes (00:35:11). Enjoy the last days of summer. Soak up the vitamin D while we have it in abundance. This season on the Sun Card!

Our journey today is to explore how we can break this cycle and learn to live in the only moment we truly have: the now. New Happiness Podcast episode with Dr. Robert Puff, Newport Beach Psychologist

Send us a textIn this thought-provoking episode of Living the Dream with Curveball, we sit down with Alex Kain, an author, entrepreneur, and systems thinker who has founded the Philosophy, a social movement that challenges traditional notions of happiness and success. Alex shares his journey from a diverse career path, including roles as a private investigator and stand-up comedian, to discovering his passion for technology and social responsibility. He discusses the four key relationships that shape our lives—our connection with the universe, ourselves, our inner circle, and our community—urging listeners to redefine success beyond material wealth. Alex also critiques the current education system and explores how we can address societal issues like homelessness and poverty through collective responsibility. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that encourages us to question the status quo and envision a more connected and compassionate world.
This week I ask the question: would you still act in kindness if no one ever knew? We all want to be recognized for our actions - it's part of our human nature (and our culture). But when we act anonymously, we may find ourselves feeling freer.You will learn:// Why we often want to be recognized for our good deeds, and how that isn't always a good thing// How letting go of our need to be seen makes us more free// How our need for recognition is also a byproduct of our culture// Why we are all called to serve and give without attachment to the outcome// Some beautiful stories of moments people acted in kindness without caring who knewResources:// Episode 130: Generosity - Pillars of Happiness, Part 1// Episode 245: KINDfulness// If you're new to the squad, grab the Rebel Buddhist Toolkit I created at RebelBuddhist.com. It has all you need to start creating a life of more freedom, adventure, and purpose. You'll also get access to the Rebel Buddhist private group, and tune in every Wednesday as I go live with new inspiration and topics.// Want something more self-paced with access to weekly group support and getting coached by yours truly? Check out Freedom School – the community for ALL things related to freedom, inside and out. We dive into taking wisdom and applying it to our daily lives, with different topics every month.

In his book Stoicism and the Art of Happiness, author, therapist, and stoic philosopher, Donald Robertson, writes:"The Sage conquers his passions by becoming stronger than them not by eliminating all traces of emotions from his life. The Stoic ideal is therefore not to be ‘passionless' in the sense of being ‘apathetic', ‘hard-hearted', ‘insensitive' or ‘like a statue' of stone or iron. Rather, it is to experience natural affection for ourselves, our loved ones, and other human beings. And to value our lives in accord with nature."In today's conversation Donald will dive deeper into what Stoicism is, and what it's not. He'll shed light on how Stoicism in popular culture is often misinterpreted -Inappropriately distilled into messages that tout self-discipline and personal responsibility, yet at the same time leave out what the stoics may have valued most:Wisdom, justice, and love for humankind. We'll also explore the possibility, and practices that might support us in living into Marcus Aurelius's conception of the Ideal Stoic:Meeting our lives, our work, and our relationships increasingly from a place that is free of passions, and full of love.

Emily and Phil close out their “Films of the Todds” mini series, spotlighting the distinct visions of Haynes, Phillips, Solondz, and Field, with a thoughtful conversation about Todd Solondz's darkly comic Life During Wartime (2009). Joining them is film critic and podcaster Chris Feil, who brings sharp insight to this follow-up to Happiness and its meditation on forgiveness, trauma, and the ways the past lingers in the present.They explore Solondz's unique approach to recasting characters, the film's blend of biting humor and discomfort, and how Life During Wartime stands apart in the landscape of late-2000s indie cinema. The episode also reflects on what this film reveals about Solondz's legacy, and why the “Todds” mini series is such a fascinating journey through some of the boldest voices in American film.Thank you for joining Emily and Phil on this mini series ride.#PodcastLikeIts2000s #LifeDuringWartime #ToddSolondz #ChrisFeil #FilmPodcast #IndieFilm #2000sMovies #FilmDiscussion Hosted on Acast.

Music helped former Talking Heads frontman David Byrne come out of his shell and connect with others—and research shows he's not alone. We explore the science behind how music shapes our social lives.Summary: Musician and artist David Byrne reflects on how music opened his world as a shy kid, offering both an outlet and a sense of belonging. We delve into the science behind music's social power and how it can offer both personal transformation and collective healing.How To Do This Practice: Tune Into What Moves You: Think back to the first songs or sounds that made you feel something—excitement, belonging, or wonder. Create a playlist that reflects those emotions or moments. Create Space to Listen Deeply: Put away distractions and really listen. Whether it's on a walk, lying down, or with headphones. Let the rhythm, lyrics, or mood take you somewhere new. Use Music as a Mirror: Notice how the music reflects your mood, identity, or desires. Ask yourself: What is this music helping me feel or understand about myself? Make Music, Even Imperfectly: Play an instrument, sing in the car, hum along. Do whatever feels natural. Self-expression through music doesn't require perfection, only sincerity. Share It With Others: Invite someone to listen with you, send a favorite song to a friend, or sing with a group. Social connection strengthens when we engage in music together. Let Music Move You Into Action or Insight: Reflect on what the music stirs in you. Does it inspire creativity, protest, healing, or joy? Let that feeling guide how you show up in the world.

Loss is an inevitable part of life, but it doesn't mark an ending...The most difficult emotions you feel are the ones that make you human.There's no happiness without pain, no joy without loss… Yet when you lose someone you love, the pain can be so all-consuming that you forget what it's like to feel anything else.Loss is a fundamental part of life. Not one of us will make it through without losing someone we love. We must all feel the weight of this pain… Yet it's possible to hold it while opening yourself up to happiness and peace at the same time.Kim Hodous lost her son Rob when he was just 29 years old, the second of two children she would lose far sooner than she ever expected.She was shattered, and despite a long quest to cultivate happiness after her first loss as a parent, she found it hard to see how she would ever find happiness again.But Rob had other plans for her.When he proved to her that he was still around, she began communicating with him.This book is their collaboration.Detailing Kim's remarkable spiritual journey as she came to terms with her loss and began to build a new relationship with her son across the spiritual realm, this book is a beacon of light for anyone processing a loss.Perhaps you're in the throes of grief, or maybe you're interested in exploring what lies on the other side of death. Either way, this captivating memoir has something to light your path and remind you of the place death has in the full human experience.BioKim Hodous is a motivational speaker, bestselling author, award-winning entrepreneur, and spiritual mentor who knows a thing or two about joy - and loss.For over 15 years, she traveled the country as The Happiness Speaker, lighting up stages with high-energy keynotes on success, resilience, and finding joy in the chaos. She also built a 7-figure business from her kitchen table, proving that you don't need an MBA or a corner office to play big.Then life called her even deeper.After losing two of her five children - her daughter Chelsea to cancer and her son Rob to an accidental overdose - Kim's world cracked open. But what emerged was not despair. It was a doorway. In her most recent book, Beyond Grief, she shares the astonishing and often humorous conversations she began having with her son from the other side - offering a new perspective on love, connection, and what it really means to live.Whether she's teaching practical habits for outrageous success or guiding grieving mothers back to joy, Kim's message is this: Love never dies. Happiness is a habit. And there's nothing love and a little gratitude can't overcome.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F9C4K6QH/https://www.kimhodous.com/ https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/ourparanormalafterlifeMy book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP

In today's episode of Ten Minutes to Less Suffering, I explore the difference between constantly trying to fix ourselves and learning to fully inhabit who we already are. When we stop searching for solutions outside ourselves and begin to listen inwardly, we return to a place of clarity, presence, and strength. Affirmation: I don't chase wholeness. I remember it. Even in heartbreak, in silence, in longing—Wholeness was never gone. I am not a problem to solve. I am not waiting to be rescued. Even when I ache, I am not less. Even when I stumble, I am not lost. I begin here. As I am. Breathing. Listening. Living. Healing is not becoming someone new. It is the soft, honest return to who I've always been. I can spend my life trying to fix myself… Or I can finally choose to be myself. One is endless effort. The other is freedom. I want to be free. Here I am. Not fixing. Just being. And Maybe that… is enough. If you found this podcast enjoyable, kindly consider subscribing and leaving a rating or review.

Stephen and Britain Covey revisit Angela Duckworth's Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance, exploring how real achievement isn't about being born gifted; it's about loving what you do enough to keep showing up.Through personal stories, from NFL training to parenting challenges, they unpack Duckworth's core message: grit is the blend of long-term passion and perseverance. It's not about grinding for the sake of it, but about aligning your effort with what matters most.They challenge the myth of talent, reflect on how passion develops gradually through exploration, and offer honest insights about raising resilient kids in a world that wants to cushion every fall. They also explore how grit doesn't diminish happiness; it deepens it. When your effort aligns with your values, fulfillment follows.Whether you're navigating your own career path, helping your kids build resilience, or simply trying to stay consistent with your goals, this episode will shift how you think about success. Grit isn't just about surviving the hard days; it's about being fueled by purpose through all of them. Tune in and discover what grit really looks like in action.What We Discuss[00:00:02] Introduction[00:01:31] Redefining grit: Passion and perseverance[00:05:27] Developing passion over time[00:10:55] The romance and reality of talent[00:14:44] Effort vs. talent at the highest levels[00:18:47] Fixed traits vs. malleable qualities[00:24:16] Parenting tips for grit: Letting kids struggle[00:29:17] Grit and happiness: Avoiding burnout[00:32:13] Living with integrity and alignmentNotable Quotes[01:31] “I define grit as the combination of perseverance and passion for long-term goals. It's not just about brute force; it's more about loving what you do for a very long time.” — Angela Duckworth[05:27] “The development of a passion is probably a better way to phrase this process than the discovery of a passion. Most of us grow into, develop, mature, and evolve into our eventual passions.” — Angela Duckworth[14:17] “So much of our success in life is really about what we do and not about what we were born with. It's the long, hard road to climb, but that's the truth of it.” — Angela Duckworth[29:49] “Happiness and grit are compatible.

You're Not Stuck. You're Just Asleep. In this episode: Why I treat books like cheat codes for life (and why this one's at the top of my stack) The Mark Twain quote that calls out “willful ignorance” in all of us What makes Anthony de Mello's writing hit different—direct, a little uncomfortable, always clarifying The realization that you don't have to believe every thought you think (and why that's a game changer) 4 Big Ideas from The Way to Love “What makes you happy or unhappy is not the world and the people around you, but the thinking in your head.” Happiness isn't out there—it's in how you interpret what's already here Noticing your internal commentary is the first step to real freedom “You see persons and things not as they are but as you are…” We all see life through a cracked filter of fear, control, and expectations If you're sideways with someone, it's usually about you, not them Stop personalizing other people's behavior—own your lens “Habits must be limited to things mechanical—not to love or to sight. Who wants to be loved from habit.” Love isn't meant to run on autopilot Get in the habit of being present—with yourself, and with others Real connection comes from presence, not routine Presence builds trust, trust creates influence, and influence is how we co-create “Contemplate the walls… just observing your ideas, habits, attachments, and fears without judgment…” Most of what runs you isn't real until you feed it judgment Don't try to fix your thoughts—just watch them. Awareness melts resistance Ego and true awareness can't coexist Key Takeaways: You don't need more effort, you need more awareness Subtract the noise and you find presence (and real freedom) This book isn't about “doing”—it's about “seeing” The simplest way to change your life might just be to stop fighting and start observing Mentioned in this episode: The Way to Love by Anthony de Mello Mark Twain's wisdom on reading Connect: Instagram: @kevinkepple Facebook: @KevinKeppleCoaching
Alex Newman! In this interview, he takes us to school on how the United Nations, its agency UNESCO, and its so-called World Court are driving world government and collectivism down each and every one of our throats. He documents how socialism, communism, and collectivism in general are being imposed through brainwashing our children so they cannot think for themselves. It's a war against individual rights, individualism, individual freedom, and God. When people talk of human rights, they have no intention of enforcing the rights of individuals to choose what's good for them with their own individual heart and mind. They never even dare mention the U.S. Declaration of Independence, which states: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed… In the collectivist model of thinking, the Declaration of Independence is considered invalid. There is no God to grant us any individual rights, and in no way do we possess certain unalienable personal rights, such as life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Instead, in their twisted speech and thinking, there are collective “human rights,” which are to be determined and defined by them—the global predators who are forever exploiting, diminishing, and even killing us. The collectivist assault on America and humanity during COVID-19 was coordinated by Bill Gates, acting in part through the UN and its health agency, the WHO. We document this, along with Gates' actual Master Plan, in our book, Covid-19 and the Global Predators: We Are the Prey. In this interview, we further discuss the collectivist brainwashing of our children that has followed a similar pattern starting long before Covid, which has already made us into a dangerously docile nation, vulnerable to such an assault on our individual rights. It again involves Bill Gates and again involves him working with the UN, acting through its education agency, UNESCO. One of their most destructive accomplishments has been imposing the Common Core educational curriculum on every American state. It's a scheme to replace education for independence with behavioral modification to enforce non-thinking conformity. In this brilliant presentation by our guest, Alex Newman, the two of us collaborate with him to describe how global predators have been turning America into a collectivist state. Until Donald Trump entered the picture, they were transforming us from the beacons of freedom into victims accepting enslavement. We also very strongly recommend this show if you want to learn more about the latest of what I call politicopathy imposed on us by politicopaths, especially working through the United Nations. I haven't liked talking about the global predators as psychopaths or sociopaths, because they are so much more grandiose and destructive than most of those miscreants, and also because I don't want ever to use any psychiatric diagnoses, all of which are used to disempower people. But I thought I'd try out politicopaths—powerful megalomaniacal rulers of as many human beings as they can dominate and exploit, enslave, or slaughter. There have been some notable successes for the Trump administration recently, including rejecting the WHO's new “international regulations” aimed at dominating the world and announcing plans to withdraw from UNESCO. But there are some notable failures in the Trump administration dealing with “politicopaths”, including the drug companies that make neurotoxic psychiatric drugs and deadly vaccines. It's an interesting and important discussion that we also touch on. Share this column and this interview. And go to Alex Newman's website, where you can learn about and obtain his new book, Indoctrinating America's Children to Death, endorsed by Peter Hegseth and retired General Mike Flynn.

What does it really mean to be optimistic?In this Flow Space edition of The Big Silence, Karena Dawn sits down with Dr. Deepika Chopra, known as the “Optimism Doctor”, live from the Women's Health Summit in LA. Drawing from her background in psychology, neuroscience, and lived experience, Dr. Chopra debunks the myth that optimism is about “being positive.” Instead, she offers science-backed tools to build mental resilience, process worry, and shift your brain toward the future you want to create. From dancing first thing in the morning to scheduling daily “worry time,” this episode is packed with small, powerful rituals to help you feel more joy, no matter where your mind is now.Could resilience be the true foundation of optimism? Dr. Chopra shares why optimism isn't a constant state of happiness; it's a mindset that acknowledges life's challenges while staying open to growth, healing, and future possibility.(00:02:00) Reframing Optimism: It's Not About Being Positive All the TimeDr. Chopra defines real optimism as rooted in resiliency and curiosity, not blind positivity.Being an optimist means recognizing life's setbacks, but seeing them as temporary and surmountable.She shares that optimism is a learnable skill, not just a personality trait.The science shows optimists live longer, thrive more, and have deeper connections.(00:07:30) From Emo Journaling to Neuroscience: Her Unexpected Path to OptimismDeepika's childhood emotional diaries foreshadowed her fascination with human behavior.Learning that the brain thinks in the future tense.Helping people anticipate good things and how to train your brain to do it.Research shows only about 25% of optimism is genetic—the rest is learned.(00:09:40) Awe, Music, and Movement: Tools to Interrupt AnxietySpending just two hours a week in nature significantly lowers stress and improves clarity.She starts every morning with her “wake-up and dance” routine to set a positive tone.Feelings of awe: How art, nature, and nostalgia help reset the brain and reduce anxiety.Happiness hack: Holding onto a positive thought for at least 12 seconds helps the brain create more of them.(00:12:30) Feel It to Heal It: Why Optimism Starts With HonestyTrue optimism requires sitting with hard emotions, not bypassing them.Dr. Chopra explains the power of curiosity when you can't access joy.Being neutral or open, even when in pain, is still progress.Staying present and inquisitive with where you are in the moment(00:13:55) Schedule Your Worry: How Boundaries Can Free Your MindDr. Chopra shares her practice of “worry time”—a scheduled slot to process anxious thoughts.Throughout the day, she defers worries to that time, writing them down or mentally shelving them.Setting a clear boundary gives worries space without you being consumed by them.Surprisingly, the best solutions often arise when you're feeling joy or calm.(00:16:45) End Your Day With a To-DA! List (Not a To-Do List)Instead of an anxiety triggering nighttime to-do list, write down daily accomplishments.Even small wins count. Celebrating them boosts a sense of empowerment and self-worth.Gratitude can lose impact over time; the To-DA list keeps things specific and fresh.She emphasizes the power of feeling accomplished before bed.Thanks for the support from our partners, including: Guest ResourcesExplore her website

Please welcome Sasha Graham, the host of the Sports Will Save Us All podcast! What a great name for a show, and I had a great time being a guest on it—we had a wide ranging conversation and really hit it off as she hit me with some surprise questions, trying to put me on the spot…it was wonderful that I said, you know what—how about I bring you onto the B.rad podcast? We turned the tables and while I didn’t put her on the spot too badly, we did talk about some really interesting and thought provoking topics in this episode—one of them was her description of herself as overly competitive, especially in her youth, and how she had to learn the hard way to manage that natural competitive intensity. I asked her if it was inherent or environmental, which led to a really interesting discussion about that and how, as she matured as a person and an athlete over the years, she realized that the most important thing was to have fun and appreciate the journey rather than obsess about the outcome. I think you're going to love some of that commentary, which might get you thinking about your own competitive mindset and the relative importance of appreciating the process versus setting and achieving goals. Sometimes we can get out of hand with that stuff, especially these days. Our conversation then transitions into a discussion about the overly pressurized, overly competitive youth sporting experience that seems to be the norm today, and what we can do about it as well-meaning, devoted parents who want the best for our kids and want to give them all the opportunities they deserve. But we also touch on some of these disturbing phenomenons that have been really highlighted these days, like the expense, the pressure, and the selectivity of competitive sports and how so many kids end up dropping out of them, so it’s also sort of an all or nothing approach. We also get into some parenting and some kid topics, like the potential solution of bringing back the emphasis and the promotion of recreational sports. I also asked Sasha what her relationship with sports means to her today and throughout her life. We had such a fun conversation and I think, after listening to it, you will be inspired to go listen to some of her great content on the Sports will Save us All podcast. You can start with my interview, but for now, here we go with Sasha Graham. Sports Will Save Us All is an award-winning weekly podcast from Sasha Graham and is available on every major podcasting platform. TIMESTAMPS: We explore many aspects of sport itself, looking at competition intensity and youth sports. [01:03] In a children's book, Sasha writes about a girl who is not invited to a party because she is always so competitive. She learns a good lesson. [06:09] Is an overly competitive nature inherent? [09:05] Endurance athletes might be different. [14:04] How do you categorize where the healthy competitive drive can drift into something that is not wholesome or has a negative aspect on your life? [16:47] Happines can be complicated but also deliciously simple. Have fun. Just don't focus so much on the outcome. [23:54] Look around your work or at your peers. Are they having a life like you want to have or are they so absorbed in their careers that they don't have family or other sources of happiness. [28:48] The state of today's youth sports is arguably overly competitive and pressurized. [32:43] Parents, let your kids play sports to have fun. [38:40] How can we guard against those negative repercussions in high level competitive in youth sports? [42:16] Why are parents so invested in what they perceive as success for the kids? [45:44] There's a kid at community college who is happy and a kid at an Ivy League who is merable. Which kid is the most successful? [54:04] Sasha has a successful podcast.

“Be with awareness. Let thought and emotion come and go. Don't fight or follow. That's how you find freedom.” What if true freedom isn't about controlling your mind, but remembering the awareness that's always been there? In today's episode of Soul Talk, I sit down with beloved Tibetan meditation master and best-selling author Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche for a soul-stirring conversation on inner peace, joy, and transformation, even in the midst of life's greatest storms. Born into a lineage of Tibetan masters, Mingyur Rinpoche has spent decades teaching the power of awareness and compassion. But it was during a near-death experience, alone, sick, and penniless on the streets of India, that he had a profound realization: beyond fear, beyond suffering, is a pure, unshakable presence we all carry inside. Together, we explore the real meaning of enlightenment, how to deal with fear, desire, and difficult emotions, and why your thoughts are not who you are. Rinpoche shares simple yet radical practices to help you access peace in everyday life, from letting go of the past to navigating addiction, conflict, and uncertainty. This episode is an invitation to return to your true nature. To live from the “inner sky” that remains untouched by life's turbulence. And to remember that even in the darkest moments, you are never truly lost. Tune in and learn how to access lasting inner peace, transform emotional patterns, and reconnect with the unshakable awareness within you. Timestamps: (00:02:30) - Cultivating joy in times of global chaos (00:05:50) - How to start changing yourself (00:08:00) - What is awareness? (00:12:30) - Becoming free from thought and emotion (00:13:03) - Working with desire and addictive patterns (00:17:40) - Mingyur's near-death experience and what he learned (00:24:30) - What is enlightenment, really? (00:26:00) - How to love what seems unlovable (00:33:30) - How Mingyur handles conflict with difficult people (00:34:40) - Making aligned decisions in life (00:36:30) - Karma, destiny, and how to change your future (00:38:15) - AI, consciousness, and the mind (00:40:30) - Final words of wisdom to help us stay grounded Some Questions I Ask: How do we find joy when the world feels like it's falling apart? What's the first step to changing ourselves when we feel justified in our pain? Are all desires bad, or can some be useful? How can we move beyond the fear of death? What does it really mean to be enlightened? How do we love people who hurt others? Is there such a thing as destiny, and how much control do we have? In This Episode You Will Learn: A powerful way to anchor yourself in peace, no matter what chaos surrounds you. How to connect with your true self through short, daily moments of awareness. The surprising truth about thoughts and emotions, and why they aren't who you are. A mindful method for transforming addictive urges and unhealthy habits. Why enlightenment isn't magical powers, but recognizing what's already within you. A radical perspective on loving difficult people and seeing their basic goodness. How to reshape your destiny by what you choose in the present moment.

This week, Jeff and his pals Julia and Tina talk about 70th birthday week at Disneyland - and what an eventful week it was! Jeff was on property Monday through Friday and has a plethora of reports and reviews, and Tina and Julia were at the resort much of the week as well, so we have a lot to talk about. Jeff's family utilized Lightning Lane Premier Pass for their first full day in the parks, and Jeff reviews the experience, the value, and the important questions to answer before you consider this pricey option. We all were able to watch "Walt Disney - A Magical Life," and we break down the controversy surrounding this brand new show which features an Audio-Animatronic Walt Disney, and offer our own reviews of the attraction. We all also tried the latest version of the World of Color dessert party, and we review the dessert experience as well as the latest World of Color show, "Happiness." All this - and more! I'd love to hear from you! To contact Jeff, email comments@mousetalgia.com.
