Do you have a habit like smoking or late night snacking that you want to kick, but no matter what you try, you just can't seem to quit? The answer isn't weakness, and it isn't a lack of motivation. It lives in the 88% of your brain you're not consciously controlling, and therapeutic hypnosis (hypnotherapy) may be one of the most underestimated tools available to change it.On Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck and guest Rita Black, a leading clinical hypnotherapist and author, pull back the curtain on hypnosis and hypnotherapy for weight loss, smoking cessation, and breaking stubborn subconscious patterns. If you've ever asked yourself why you can't stop doing something you genuinely don't want to do, this conversation was made for you.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ How hypnotherapy works by relaxing the critical filter between your conscious and subconscious mind, making it easier to adopt new habits and beliefs rather than fighting against deeply embedded patterns.✅ Why willpower represents only 12% of your mental power, and how your subconscious patterns from night eating to emotional eating are running the show, whether you realize it or not.✅ How adopting an apprentice mindset and shifting your identity from "dieter" to "learner" can reduce shame, break the start-over-Monday cycle, and create sustainable behavioral change.✅ Three practical self-hypnosis techniques you can use today: the identity shift, the Movie Theater mental practice method, and aversion therapy tools that interrupt dopamine-driven cravings before they take hold.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Rita Black, clinical hypnotherapist and expert in hypnosis for weight loss and smoking cessation05:05 Rita shares her personal story of overcoming addiction through hypnotherapy and becoming a non-smoker10:04 The difference between stage hypnosis and therapeutic hypnosis: entertainment versus real behavioral change14:25 How hypnotherapy relaxes the critical filter so the conscious and subconscious mind can finally align19:36 The ringing phone analogy: why dopamine and expectation drive food cravings and night eating23:06 Three self-hypnosis tools to start using today.

Self-monitoring is the skill that quietly changes everything: focus, impulse control, distress tolerance, and even conflict at home and school. In this Overpowering Emotions episode, Dr. Caroline teaches educators, parents, and mental health professionals how to build self-monitoring as a trainable skill—not a sticker chart, not a punishment, and not a “catch them when they're already melting down” plan.You'll learn how to start with behaviours kids already know (think: a task they can do on autopilot), set a clear target using Dr. Caroline's SOAP criteria, create a simple tracking system, and use cues like timers or classroom chimes to help kids “pause and check.” You'll also hear how to reinforce the right thing early on: accurate awareness, even when the child wasn't on task.If you support kids with ADHD, anxiety, big feelings, classroom disruptions, or sibling conflict, this episode gives you practical language, ready-to-use examples, and a step-by-step way to grow independence—without nagging, shame, or power struggles.Homework activities for adults (plus resources to prep)Homework A: Pick the “easy win” targetChoose a behaviour during a task the child already knows well (not new learning).Write the target using SOAP:Specific: exactly what they will doObservable: you can see/hear itAppropriate: fits the settingPersonal: fits the child's levelResource: a one-sentence target + a short list of examples/non-examples.Homework B: Build a simple self-monitoring formPick ONE method:Checklist (multi-step tasks like chores/writing)Rating scale (how well did I stay in my seat?)Tally count (each time I raised my hand)Resource: a paper tracking card or a simple note page; add smiley faces/stickers for younger kids.Homework C: Add a cueUse a timer, smartwatch, chime, or an adult signal (thumbs up).Start frequent (short intervals), then stretch it out gradually.Resource: phone timer or classroom chime; choose a cue word (“focus check,” “chore check”).Homework D: Reinforce accuracy, not perfectionWhen the cue goes off, compare adult rating + child rating.Reward matching ratings, even if the child marked “No, I wasn't on track.”Resource: a small, immediate reinforcer list (attention, short break, points, sticker, choice).Homework E: Baseline + graph (optional, powerful)Track the behaviour for 3–5 occasions across several days.Graph it so the child can see progress.Resource: a simple bar chart on paper, or dots on a chart.Enjoying the show?

We are no longer waiting for the other shoe to drop: We are living in the aftermath. Rushkoff sits down with Jonathan Larsen, editor of The Fucking News, to ask the question: Now that we are soaking in authoritarianism, how do we get out? While Rushkoff worries that the screen has been placed over the boiling pot, Larsen offers a crucial reframing: what we mistake for a grand fascist strategy is often just a lack of impulse control. He argues that diagnosing "fascism" can become a trap that leads to fatalism and paralysis. Instead, the most effective resistance is specific, tactical, and local. From the Newtonian backlash inherent in voter suppression to the dangers of Larry Ellison's Stargate DNA registry, Rushkoff and Larsen explore how to resist the urge to dehumanize our enemies, why we must stop looking for political saviors, and how to find the levers of power that still work.Learn more about Everyone's Earth: https://everyonesearth.com/Change Diapers: https://changediapers.com/Cobi Dryer Sheets: https://cobidryersheets.com/Use the code “rush10” to receive 10% off of Cobi Dryer sheets: https://cobidryersheets.com/Support Team Human on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/teamhumanFollow Team Human with Douglas Rushkoff:Instagram: https:/www.instagram.com/douglasrushkoffYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJdUEh2Wh4fnswTLmqoEnhgTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@douglasrushkoffBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/rushkoff.com Hosted on Acast.

In this enlightening episode of the Secret Life Podcast, host Brianne Davis-Gantt tackles the pervasive issue of instant gratification and its detrimental effects on personal growth and fulfillment. Drawing on her experiences with clients in recovery, Brianne highlights the struggle many face when it comes to sitting in discomfort and resisting the urge for immediate pleasure. She candidly shares her own journey with instant gratification, likening it to a toddler's relentless desire for instant rewards.Throughout the episode, Brianne delves into the neuroscience behind instant gratification, explaining how it drives impulsive behaviors and hinders long-term goals. She contrasts this with the concept of delayed gratification, emphasizing its importance in achieving greater self-control, improved decision-making, and ultimately, a more satisfying life. Listeners will learn practical strategies to combat impulsive tendencies, such as identifying triggers, setting clear goals, and creating personal reward systems.This episode serves as a powerful reminder that true growth often requires patience and the ability to endure discomfort. Join Brianne as she encourages you to lean into the uncomfortability and embrace the journey towards meaningful change, rather than succumbing to the allure of instant satisfaction.

Parenting through hard moments isn't about choosing between accountability and compassion, it's about learning how to hold both at the same time. If you've ever wondered, “Am I being too soft… or too hard?” Then, this episode is for you.

Impulse control is a foundational skill for emotion regulation—and many kids don't have it yet.In this episode of Overpowering Emotions, Dr. Caroline continues her series on impulse control and explains how impulsive reactions block learning, problem-solving, and emotional growth. You'll learn how to help kids and teens slow down, map their emotional patterns, and practise new responses before big emotions take over.Topics covered:Why impulsivity makes emotion regulation harderHow to map thoughts, feelings, body sensations, urges, and behavioursUsing environment changes to make self-control easierIf-then planning that works in real lifeHelping kids practise new behaviours without shame or power strugglesWhy reinforcement and recovery time matterThis episode is designed for parents, educators, school staff, and mental health professionals working with kids who react fast and struggle to pause.

Are you a SMART, CAPABLE woman who constantly wonders why food is the one area of your life you can't control? If you feel hijacked by cravings or find yourself back at square one after every diet, this episode is your missing piece.We are pulling back the curtain on the #1 mistake that successful women make when trying to overcome overeating and binging: trying to use willpower to outthink an urge. The reason your willpower fails isn't a lack of discipline; it's a neurological mismatch. We dive deep into the crucial distinction between conscious food thoughts and powerful, survival-wired food urges. You'll understand why the food industry has engineered products to appeal to the oldest, most unconscious part of your brain, making the struggle feel impossible. Stop fighting a losing battle. Réshanda reveals the 3-step "Crave to Clear Method" that teaches you how to stop battling yourself and start building internal resilience.In this episode, you'll discover:Why the constant "food noise" isn't a moral failure, but a sign of a hijacked brain.The difference between a simple food thought you can easily drop and an urge that feels like RESTLESSNESS or a compulsive need to act.The 3 Steps to REWIRE your neural pathways for effortless, consistent eating control, without relying on GLP-1s or extreme white-knuckling.How to finally achieve peace and freedom with food, regaining the mental clarity to focus on what truly matters.Tune in if you're ready to trade the exhausting cycle of fighting cravings for the skills and capacity to manage them from the inside out. Resources Mentioned: Get on the waitlist for the Eat With Balanced program at reshandayates.com/foodfreedom Did you enjoy the episode?

Impulsivity doesn't come from nowhere. It shows up when emotions move faster than skills.In this episode of Overpowering Emotions, Dr. Caroline moves into part 2 of impulse control, unpacking what kids actually need to slow impulsive reactions and make better choices when feelings surge. You'll hear why impulse control cannot be taught in isolation, how emotional literacy lays the groundwork, and why kids need repeated, real-world practice, not lectures, to change behaviour.We talk about recognizing emotional patterns, mapping triggers across the day, teaching opposite actions, building self-coaching language, and creating safe opportunities for kids to practice responding differently while emotions are active. This episode is packed with practical strategies for parents, educators, and clinicians who want to help kids build real pause, choice, and follow-through.Homework IdeasTrack daily emotion triggers using simple ABC notes (Antecedent, Behaviour, Consequence)Help kids identify body cues that signal rising emotionCreate a short list of opposite actions for common emotionsPractice self-coaching scripts out loud, then quietlySet up safe, repeatable practice moments at home or schoolReinforce effort with specific feedbackRotate practice across settings, people, and times of dayHelpful ToolsCoping cardsChoice boardsEmotion–action–outcome mapsVisual stop cuesProgress tracking chartsEnjoying the show?

In this episode, Jon unpacks why kids interrupt, especially in those moments when it “starts to feel disrespectful and chaotic” and you're thinking, they're old enough, they should know better. He breaks down what's really happening in the developing brain around time, impulse control, and attachment, and why so many “rude” behaviors are actually bids for connection. Listeners walk away with a clearer understanding of what their child's interruptions are telling them, plus practical, shame-free ways to set limits, protect conversations, and still help kids feel seen and important.Links to help you and me:To support the Podcast, Subscribe on SubstackGet Jon's Top Five Emotional Regulation GamesGet Jon's Book Punishment-Free Parenting Preorder Jon's Children's Book Set My Feelings FreeFollow Whole Parent on Instagram, Tiktok, Facebook, YoutubeSend us a textSupport the show

We explore the vintage clothing and collectibles scene in Omaha, examining the intersection of genuine appreciation, social signaling, and dopamine-driven consumerism. The conversation ranges from Matt's solo trip to a vintage event at A Priori (complete with Polaroid gift-giving) to broader questions about why we acquire things—whether it's a 1940s bomber jacket, rare vinyl records, or another book for the shelf. We discuss the spectrum between celebrating quality craftsmanship and using purchases to fill psychological needs, touching on everything from $500 Nebraska garage band 45s to the declining quality of modern retail clothing.The episode takes a practical turn when Alex proposes a personal experiment: a multi-month period of not buying anything beyond necessities. We examine the motivations behind this challenge—not primarily financial savings, but rather an exploration of impulse control, creative constraint, and resistance to consumer culture. We also revisit the idea of annual reflection sessions, moving away from metric-based goal-setting toward describing what we want our lives to look and feel like, and how to balance the fulfillment that comes from new pursuits with the discipline that characterized earlier periods of better health and lower consumption. -Ai If you enjoyed this episode, please consider giving us a rating and/or a review.

Welcome to the Empowered Eating Holiday Edit! Ever found yourself going back for seconds… and thirds… only to end the night uncomfortably full and regretting it later? I've been there too—plate after plate of mashed potatoes when what I really needed was comfort, not another serving. But instead of finding peace, I found myself stuck in the spin cycle of overeating, guilt, and swearing I'd “start fresh on Monday.” Sound familiar? Or maybe you've seen a family member ride that same teacup spin. Either way—you are not alone. And the good news? There's a way off that ride. In this episode of The Empowered Eating Holiday Edit, we're tackling impulse control at the Thanksgiving table—because it's not just about willpower or saying “no” to pie. It's about understanding what's happening in your brain, body, and emotions, and learning how to make empowered choices that let you actually enjoy the holiday without the crash, guilt, or food hangover.

As a child, riding, tinkering/repairing bicycles were just a few hobbies Mike enjoyed. But the woodworking project is beneficial for so many reasons. Yes it's fun but it truly helps children and adults with distracted minds become more grounded and able to focus.  Children collaborate and help one another, improve their math skills, use their hands, learn to measure and cut wood and so much more. But it was Mike's mother, Linda, who really concentrated on helping Mike with his OCD/ADHD.  He says, "she was very instrumental in trying to keep me active. It was very hard for her to see this disruptive behavior in her own child." Mike agrees that he was dealing with Impulse control negative attention issues.Education was very important to Linda. She completed her PHD when Mike was a teen.  She was determined to help Mike figure out what interested him, what his strengths and attributes were and decided to concentrate on those gifts. Linda's grandfather had been a Rabbi in Ukraine. Her father died when she was in high school and mother had dyslexia and had never learned to read or write, so all of her past, played a major role in her passion for a solid education. She was determined to help her son overcome his educational challenges.Linda got married at 19. In order to become a lab technician, she got her Batchelor's degree in Science and Medical Technology. "To show how important education was to her, she went back to school got her Masters Degree and then  in her 40's got a PHD in "Immigration History." Mike explains, "growing  up Jewish in Minnesota, was very rare. It was very interesting to see these immigration patterns that she lived through and seeing similar patterns repeating again today. Later on LInda started a historical society to study Jewish Immigration in the Upper Midwest.Knowing her son's interests helped Linda come up with the idea for Mike to help her when she was cataloging information from those of her Jewish community who had passed away. Family members had donated diaries and personal information. These tasks were very detail oriented and she knew that was one of her son's many strengths. He created a useful database.Contact Information for Maplewoodshop:Email address:mike@maplewoodshop.comFacebook -@MaplewoodshopNJhttps://www.facebook.com/MaplewoodshopNJ/LinkedIn -https://www.linkedin.com/company/maplewoodshop/Instagram -@maplewoodshophttps://www.instagram.com/maplewoodshop/?hl=enTwitter-@MaplewoodshopNJhttps://twitter.com/MaplewoodshopNJThreads -@maplewoodshophttps://www.threads.net/@maplewoodshopYoutube -@maplewoodshop727https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpPIu2juABNjm_2ZoMjrx4wTiktok -@maplewoodshophttps://www.tiktok.com/@maplewoodshophttps://www.maplewoodshop.com/ "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

This week we resume our study of the life of Moses by delving into a passage that challenges us to think deeply about the importance of healthy boundaries. Why are healthy boundaries important? What should my boundaries be? How can I grow my ability to maintain those boundaries? These are some of the core questions we'll explore on Sunday.

Moses was passionate, woke, and ready to fight injustice—but his unchecked zeal led to regret and exile. The Bible teaches us to be slow to speak, slow to anger, and slow to wrath. Why? Because wrath blinds reason and invites regret. True transformation doesn't come from being “woke”… it comes from being awakened by God.

How do you see the world? Through what lens do you view life? You've heard it said that "seeing is believing." You've heard it said that a picture is worth a thousand words. Well, how we see life will largely determine the quality of our life. Join us on Sunday as we compare two dramatically different ways of seeing. This is the fifth installment in our study of the New Testament book of Colossians.

We're Not Saying You Should Jump… But Here's How to Survive When You Inevitably Do RPGBOT.net Presents Past Mistakes in Glorious 1080p Want to see how deep the rules rabbit hole really goes? Or maybe you just miss hearing Tyler's voice explain gravity damage like it's a TED Talk about falling down stairs. Either way, rejoice! Past episodes of the RPGBOT.Podcast are now available on YouTube. That's right—you can watch us talk about jumping in TTRPGs while quietly judging our dice rolls and decisions. Head to YouTube and search RPGBOT.Podcast, or visit RPGBOT.net to catch up on all the physics-defying, rules-lawyering, gravity-defying goodness. Show Notes – Jumping (Yes, Really) In this remastered episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the gang takes a long, hard leap into the mechanics of jumping in tabletop role-playing games. Whether you're trying to cross a chasm, leap onto a moving cart, or just escape your problems with a dramatic rooftop exit, this episode breaks down how jumping actually works—and how it should work—across Dungeons & Dragons and Pathfinder systems. Tyler, Randall, and Ash discuss the rules-as-written, the rules-as-abused, and the physics-as-ignored, covering how different systems treat vertical leaps, long jumps, and gravity's cruel embrace. Expect intense debates on standing jumps, running starts, and whether barbarians are just kangaroos in plate mail. And yes, Tyler did the math. Again. Key Takeaways: D&D 5e's jump rules are deceptively simple, which means players either forget they exist or completely break them with Strength scores that shouldn't be legal. Pathfinder 2e offers more structured mechanics, but the math still gets wild when people start asking how fast someone can fall upward. Movement matters. A running start can double your jump distance—unless you forgot you're wearing heavy armor and just did a faceplant off a ledge. Gravity always wins. Unless you're a monk, a bird, or someone with Feather Fall queued up like an escape clause. Vertical jumps are not your friend. Want to leap 10 feet straight up? Better bring a ladder or a wizard. Fall damage is a harsh mistress. DMs often improvise gravity as punishment for clever ideas. Ash thinks jumping is overrated. Also, he doesn't trust horses. This is probably unrelated, but important. Randall's Rule of Cool: If a cinematic leap sounds awesome, do it—and then figure out the rules after you land. Tyler's Law of Calculated Regret: Always check your jump distance before describing your character leaping across a 30-foot canyon. DMs should know the jump rules—but also know when to throw them out the window like a rogue with a running start and nothing to lose.

Jess and Scott dive deep into the science of impulse control in children, explaining why little ones struggle to control their impulses and how parents can effectively support this critical developmental process. They explore brain development across different age groups—from toddlers who are "completely run by impulses" to teens experiencing a rush of emotions while their logical brain struggles to catch up. Listeners will gain practical, science-backed approaches to help navigate impulsive behaviours, understand the "why" behind children's actions, and learn how to balance setting boundaries with maintaining the warm connection that makes children most teachable.Get 10% OFF parenting courses and kids' printable activities at Nurtured First using the code ROBOTUNICORN.We'd love to hear from you!

Advances in neurological science point to the amazing complexity of our God-made brains. Because their brains are still developing, our children, teens, and even young adults have what is called an underdeveloped impulse control. This makes them less prone to resist behavioral impulses and more prone to engage in risky behaviors perceived to bring some kind of immediate benefit, but which could also bring long-lasting negative consequences. In spiritual terms, this not only means that our kids are likely to lack wisdom and discernment, but more readily fall into sin. We need to teach them that as sinners, their default setting is to follow their sinful hearts more readily than they are to follow God's Word. Which means that we must nurture them into knowing God's good, life-giving Word, helping to expose sin. As their frontal lobes are still developing, they need parents who serve to train them in Godly decision-making and living.

Send us a textIn this episode of Think Like a Dog, Millie and Andreia dive into the crucial role of structure in dog training and why clear rules, boundaries, and routines are essential for a well-balanced dog. They break down common misconceptions about dog behavior, the importance of crate training, and why providing clarity and direction prevents behavioral issues before they start.Millie shares expert insights on crate placement, setting no-dog zones for safety, and why feeding in the crate reinforces structure. She also emphasizes the value of structured leash walking, managing impulse control through thresholds, and ensuring calmness before offering resources. Plus, she provides a checklist to help owners determine when and how to gradually reduce structure while maintaining a respectful and trusting relationship with their dog.Throughout the episode, Millie and Andreia stress that while treats are great for teaching tricks, they don't address deeper behavioral challenges. They highlight the importance of consistency, understanding each dog's unique personality, and using structure to create a harmonious home environment.If you want to strengthen your bond with your dog, prevent behavioral issues, and ensure long-term success in training, this episode is a must-listen!Support the showFollow Us On Instagram: @thinklikeadogpodcast @Mirrorimagek9 @OzzieAlbiesFoundation Work with Mirror Image K9 here: https://www.mirrorimagek9.com/contactusBe Our Guest: https://www.thinklikeadogpodcast.com Learn More About The Best Chance Program: https://www.ozziealbiesfoundation.org/

Is our obsession with optimization actually making us weaker?  In this episode of the Habits and Hustle podcast, I am joined by Michael Easter, author of "The Comfort Crisis" and "Scarcity Brain," to explore how modern society's relentless pursuit of wellness and optimization might be backfiring.  We discuss the possibility that the more requirements we add to basic human functions (like sleeping, exercising, or working), the more fragile we become. We also dive into elaborate morning routines, sleep-tracking devices, how subtraction, not addition, might be the key to building real resilience in our overly-comfortable world, and the best way to end a day of intellectual work.  Michael Easter has made a career as a New York Times bestselling author by traveling the world to uncover practical ideas that help people live healthier, happier, and more remarkable lives. His research spans from war zones to the Arctic to the Bolivian jungle, where he's interviewed thousands of experts including Nobel laureates and world-class athletes. Easter shares these science-backed insights in his books, including Scarcity Brain and The Comfort Crisis, as well as in his newsletter, Two Percent with Michael Easter. His work has been adopted by professional sports teams, Fortune 500 companies, and elite military units to transform their approaches to physical health, mental well-being, and performance.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Mark D'Esposito, M.D., a neurologist and professor of neuroscience and psychology at the University of California, Berkeley. We discuss the brain mechanisms underlying cognition and the forms of memory required for focus, productivity, planning and achieving goals, and learning. We discuss the neurochemicals such as dopamine and acetylcholine and how they can be leveraged to improve cognitive functioning. We also discuss concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI), Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's disease, and ways to restore or slow cognitive decline by using pharmacologic, lifestyle and behavioral protocols. This episode provides a modern understanding of cognition and memory and actionable tools to optimize brain health and function.
