If you're an oh I never cry kind of person, if nothing seems to touch you or move you that deeply, this is for you.Few things might be more impactful — and more challenging — than giving space to what has been avoided for a long, long time.Because that was me. With the exception of brief outbursts, I didn't allow myself a lot of emotions. It was difficult (and expensive!?) to re-connect with my heart and body. Every week I stepped into a bland office with tired carpets and waited for the dreaded words: “How does that make you feel?”I was not feeling anything.If anything, my body felt empty. There was a void. And tension. Like someone holding a door from bursting open.The head was my safe space. I wanted to think about my life, not feel it. Kudos to my therapist who gently prodded me back to my body when I tried to divert and tell a story.Anger might have been the hardest to access.Hot flashing anger. Boiling anger. Stewing anger. Even today, anger is a tough one. I still push it away. If I get angry, I may feel a short pull, a hint at something happening. Then it gets bottled up and placed in the toxic waste storage somewhere down in my guts. Anger does not feel safe. I had to learn, like a toddler, that experiencing anger was not the same as being an angry person. I had to teach myself not to feel guilty for anger simply arising. I had to grasp that being angry at someone I loved did not threaten to break our bond. Don't get me wrong: I don't want to act from a place of anger. I don't want my life to be filled with anger. No, like all feelings and thoughts, it arises and vanishes. The anger burns off. The better my overall state, the more centered I am, the less interesting it is. (This was where meditation changed my life profoundly.) But the self-denial, I found, leads to a dissociated existence, to a disconnect from my truth.It creates tension and numbness in my body. It leads to behavior that is hard to explain — like suddenly avoiding a person or place. It leads to the willful destruction of the gift of time to experience distraction and release.Then I climb down the ladder and open the anger barrel. Ah. That's what's going on…“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” ― Carl JungI have found different ways to access that space. What seems to work best is movement, movement that lets the body express and release without the mind as an intermediary. Workouts, dance, TRE, breathwork all seem effective. And, yes, even writing — which has the advantage of being available for free to anyone at any time (well, provided some privacy).It's dead simple, but not easy.I learned this technique from the books of the late Dr. John Sarno (I shared it here with other notes on journaling). Years ago, Jim O'Shaughnessy mentioned Sarno to me, but I was not listening. Sarno focused on chronic pain, particularly back pain, and that was not a major issue for me.Last year, one of my stepbrothers used Sarno's method to overcome long COVID. The way he described it was very moving, as if he was dropping the weights he had been carrying by communing with his heart. It blew my mind.Strange as it may seem, people with an unconscious psychological need for symptoms tend to develop a disorder that is well known, like back pain, hay fever, or eczema. — The Divided Mind“John Sarno was a rehabilitation-medicine specialist at N.Y.U.,” writes Sam Dolnick at the New York Times. A doctor frustrated with his tools which didn't seem to be effective. His encounter with psychology made him see “his own physical ailments — an irritable stomach, itchy skin, shrieking headaches — as manifestations of his emotional well-being.” Mind and body appeared to him as one system and chronic pain often as a psychosomatic phenomenon — a physical symptom caused by psychological factors (he called it TMS).I don't know whether he is right about pain being a ‘distraction' but I don't doubt the connection between mental and physical health.As with Freud's patients, I found that my patients' physical symptoms were the direct result of strong feelings repressed in the unconscious. — The Mindbody PrescriptionThe medical community thought Sarno, who called himself ‘a heretic', went too far. “Because his colleagues wouldn't listen,” writes Dolnick, “he bypassed the journals and instead wrote best-selling books, conversational in tone, that detailed the link he saw between emotional distress and physical pain; he sold more than a million copies.”I didn't suffer from chronic pain, but I was familiar with the issue of bottled-up emotions. How else could they manifest? What issues was I risking down the road?Sarno focused on rage perhaps because that was his predicament (“I am furious!” he said. “It's there all the time! I'm in a rage!”). What about the other stuff we push away? The sorrow, shame, guilt, envy, fear, all the hurt and judgment and nasty stuff we would rather avoid.What if Sarno didn't go far enough?“It is perfectly acceptable to have a physical problem in our culture, but people tend to shy away from anything that has to do with the emotions.” — Healing Back PainI wanted to know the truth about how I felt — the embodied truth, not the story my mind would come up with. And I wanted to drop the weight. I needed to know how Sarno had helped people.For some patients, knowledge was enough. That's why Sarno's books analyze the condition, the treatment methods, and (Freudian) psychology. Unfortunately, Sarno buried a key idea among his many pages (kudos to his student Nicole Sachs for re-surfacing it): if knowing about the connection between psyche and body is not enough, you can choose to face and release whatever you are holding.The best description I've found is in the chapter ‘treatment' in The Divided Mind. Barely five pages of a “daily study program.” It's that simple.* Make three lists with all the sources of your emotional pain:* One list for your past: “Anger, hurt, emotional pain, and sadness generated in childhood will stay with you all your life because there is no such thing as time in the unconscious.”* One list for your current life circumstances: “List all the pressures in your life, since they all contribute to your inner rage.”* And one list for your personality traits, whatever contributes “to the internal emotional pain and anger.” For example: being a people pleaser, self-critical, a perfectionist, very driven, shy, self-sacrificing etc. — “The child in our unconscious doesn't care about anyone but itself and gets angry at the pressures to be perfect and good.” * Set aside time and “write an essay, the longer the better, about each item on your list. This will force you to focus in depth on the emotional things of importance in your life.” I called it write Until the Heart Catches.* Ideally, do this daily. More realistically, commit to it as an experiment, say for a month, then regularly to check in. This is done by hand. With pen and paper. I know you all want to type it and have AI analyze it. Or speak it into a transcription app and avoid typing altogether. That may be effective in different ways, but in this what matters is not insight but to have an emotional experience that was previously avoided.The point of the pen is movement. We need to move from head to body and stay with discomfort. We need to see the words take shape and be able to stare at them. We need to feel the emotional charge. It's work. If you stay at the level of trivial chatter, your experience will likewise be trivial.Yes, your hand may cramp in the beginning. It gets better.Yes, it may be illegible. That does not matter. We're not writing to share.This is about healing, growing, and a chance to get closer to your essence.What happens on that page is for your eyes only. It may be effective to destroy the pages later on. I haven't tried that yet, but I know it can be useful to ‘release' written statements — say a letter of forgiveness — to the ocean, fire etc.Occasionally, this writing yields creative sparks. Ideas and insights, songs and poetry, maybe waiting for you. There is gold in your shadow. When that happens, you just write the spark up somewhere else. Keep the mindbody writing between yourself and the universe.A few things I've learned doing this many times:* Turn off the phone. Practice discipline. You may feel the urge to go to the kitchen, the bathroom, to text someone, check the apps, to do work, to do anything but experience what has been avoided for so long.* Set a timer. It can take a while to go deep. I often start at the level of story with my gaze outward (“my problem is [person] is [doing]”). Give yourself enough space to go beyond the surface. Keep writing until you find the trail of feeling, then discomfort. Look for I feel [X] and, frankly, I'd rather not…* Stay with the body. The mind will try to distract you. For the purpose of this exercise what happened is irrelevant. The story does not matter. All that matters is whether you can give yourself permission to feel what your unconscious is holding.* Privacy. This is about experiencing emotions that don't feel safe to feel, let alone express around others. Even with my therapists and my IFS coach I censored myself. The more privacy you have for this work, the better.* Mindbody experience. I've broken pens, punched through pages, sobbed, cried, yelled, and cursed. I tend to shift back and forth between writing auf deutsch and in English. Many of my pages are illegible. Sometimes the letters get very large, at other times the writing is tiny. Allow yourself a full body experience. Give your parts the space to express themselves the way they want to.* Try speaking. Try reading the emotionally difficult/juicy stuff out loud. Don't think or dictate but rather let the hand write and then say out loud what appeared.* Let go. We're not trying to make this our reality. The goal is to visit the dragon's cave and return to the village. Say what needs to be said, cry if you feel like crying, and when you're done, close the notebook and leave it behind on the page. * End with soothing. Things might get loud and wild and you might feel raw and upset after. Give yourself time to calm down and comfort yourself. I'm not joking. Don't do this and hop on a work call right after.* Find a couple of self-care rituals as rewards for doing the work — a walk in nature, yoga nidra, a nap, hot bath, soothing music or guided meditation..* Add self-love and forgiveness. We're looking to meet ourselves on the page as honestly as we can. You might bump into shadow that can be difficult to face. That's valuable, but we also need to make sure we don't stay in that mindset. Aside from soothing self-care, end with an affirmation to love and forgive yourself. Perhaps find someone to share that love with. Share a hug.* The weirder this sounds, the more important it is. If everything love and forgiveness gives you the ick, try something like Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends on It by Kamal Ravikant.I've used mindbody writing for life circumstances like money or writing, for relationship and family issues, for hang-ups like my avoidance of intimacy, and for the big leaps I have not allowed myself. I could easily find dozens more for which I haven't explored with it yet.Like my reluctance to ask for help. Gotta be independent! Can't rely on others… oh. Is that so. I wonder what feelings are hiding in that space. Or my teeth clenched at night. I wonder what wants to be expressed there… Still, I've found it very effective already. I feel lighter and less tense. My story has been changing. I find peace and bliss on the other side of broken pens and mad pages.It is simply one way I meet my darkness and stuckness to release it, one page at a time.Maybe it's time to start the work?I hope this helps.— Frederik This is a public episode.

Tomorrow, February 14th, is Valentine's Day.For some, it's a joyous celebration of our connection with our spouse, companion, partner, and loved one.For others, it raises questions about why we need a holiday to mark something that's central to our life and our True North.And there are those for whom it's a source of grief or pain for various reasons – lack of a life partner, hurt over losing a life partner, or disillusionment over not having found a life partner.But you know what we don't talk about?

Two Life Themes Intertwine to Build Avanti Body Franchise. Terri Simpson, Founder and CEO at Avanti Body, and Andrea Dobkin, President of Franchise Development, join us today on The Franchise Woman podcast. Terri talks about her life theme of paradigm shifts. She thought she wanted to be a DJ … until she did it. Her life in radio was not for naught as she went on to work with Rush Limbaugh and owning several radio stations. Andrea Dobkin's life theme comes from the book: Love Yourself as if Your Life Depended on It, by Kamal Ravikant. This concept of loving yourself was not one discussed, encouraged or modeled by her mother or other female role models. Both Terri & Andrea encountered health issues which forced them to make a paradigm shift and begin to love themselves as if their life dependent on it … because it truly did.  Listen in to this insightful interview with Terri Simpson and Andrea Dobkin.

Join us for our Life of Purpose series this month as we revisit some of our most impactful episodes. Dive deep into expert insights and practical strategies on health, performance, and community, helping you achieve personal and professional fulfillment.If we make a practice in our lives, like going to the gym or eating healthy, if you want to lose weight and be fit, or you want to be chiseled, you've got to make a practice. It's a daily practice. You can't go to the gym for a week and eat cake for 30 days nonstop and say “hey what happened? I was getting in shape.”Whether you're feeling bad or feeling good, that doesn't matter. It's just your practice, like when you wake up and when you go to sleep. There are certain things you do. It's a fundamental practice. Just like you talk about with writing. It's a practice. Then you hit the flow state. Same thing in life. You make it a practice. Life hits a flow state.Things in life happen. People die. Nothing we can do to stop that. People we love die. Things happen. When we hit that flow state we bounce back much faster. The things that used to bring us down don't bring us down like before. Then it's only the real tragedies in life that bring us down. When a loved one dies, it's a real tragedy and that should bring you down. It's good to have loved someone that way and feel the loss. But the other stuff, the other garbage, the 99 percent of the stuff that brings us down that doesn't matter lessens and its power over us lessens. So, I would say to someone who is either down or up, what matters is a fundamental daily practice of working on your inner self that keeps you in your personal flow. - Kamal Ravikant Subscribe for ad-free interviews and bonus episodes https://plus.acast.com/s/the-unmistakable-creative-podcast.

Hello, how are you? I hope you're doing well. I am so happy to have you listening to today's podcast episode. It is freezing here in the Northeast. So I have maybe been doing a little bit of retail therapy, grabbing cozier and warmer sweaters. And I restarted my newly rental, I have no affiliation with them, just to have some variety in my wardrobe.   But yeah, I think last winter was a lot milder, it wasn't as cold as soon so it's been chilly here in the North East. But the fun part of that is the holidays are approaching. I actually just got my very first real Christmas tree, please don't judge me. I know it's not good for the environment.   But I love the smell. And it was a big deal for me to get my own tree. And I'm super excited. It just came last night, it was delivered. And now I get to decorate it with my kids. And it's going to be a beautiful holiday season.   So today I want to talk about really the concept of self care. Is it really the way to energize yourself in the long run? I don't think so. Because we've all been told about self care for a really long time. It's been pushed on us as the antidote to burnout.   And if that were the case, then everyone who gets mani pedis would just be out of exhaustion and burnout and energized, right? So here's what most women who are in survival mode, in demanding careers, who are exhausted do when they're, let's say, proud of their careers, but daily, they're filled with guilt, because they're not showing up for their family in the way that they want or making plans for fun.   When they're not working they feel even more overwhelmed, never getting a sense of peace or balance. And it's really frustrating because on paper, they have everything that they've worked for personally and professionally. Or when you get home after a long hard day of work, there's still emails or charts pending that you can't separate work from home.   And then during storytime with your kids, you don't even know what you're reading. You want to be present, but your brain is spinning in a million directions thinking about your to do list and all the work that's piling up, right. So people with these problems are often trying more self care. And so many professional women are getting mani pedis, they're getting massages every once in a while.   And though these things are great, it's good to pamper ourselves, it's great to take a break and just be alone or get a mani pedi with a friend. But in terms of solving the issue of burnout and exhaustion, these tactics just don't work. And the reason is that getting a mani pedi or getting a massage, that lasts for an hour, maybe two. You feel a little bit relaxed for a couple of hours.   But then it's back to either work at your job or work at home. Getting stuff done, being the default parent, or functioning as a single parent or being a single parent. Whether it's arranging the kids lessons, their extracurricular activities, childcare, or trying to plan a night with friends. So trying the self care stuff, it doesn't work.   And so women continue to run into these problems, because self care is really temporary. And the only way to truly be energized, to truly be less exhausted, is to heal from the inside out. To do the work on the inside. And you may be wondering, how do I do this, right.   And so of course, this is a lot of the work that we do inside my coaching program overcome burnout for good, but I want to let you in on what I believe is the crux of this work, to really having a life filled with inner peace and joy.   And the first step to this besides having a vision and living a life with intention, which I've talked about before. Maybe not the first step, but another major pillar of this is to learn how to love yourself. And I say learn because I think all kids love themselves.   And I see this in my children how, especially when they're babies, they have such a fascination with themselves and starting from when they're newborns, they love looking in the mirror. And then they are just really pleased with themselves and they love themselves and it's incredible. And then we were probably like that, and then life does its number on us. And then we begin to accommodate other people's needs above our own.   We learn to people please and we lose sight of how magical, how wonderful we are. And so loving yourself. It really will have the most profound effect on your life. And it's a wonderful example to set for children as well. So when you start to ask yourself the question of what would I do if I loved myself, it really starts bringing so much clarity to areas where you may be having confusion.   And I know a client of mine, she was really struggling in her marriage. And through doing the self love work, she was able to leave a very toxic and abusive situation. But it was learning to love herself that helped her to face her fears and leave him. So it's so powerful, this work.   Now, you could use self love on a much more basic level. But it does make decisions a lot clearer. So we really have to decide that we're going to reteach ourselves to love ourselves.   So a couple of years ago, I read a book by Kamal Ravi Kahn, and I hope to have him on the podcast in the new year. And his book is called Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends On It. And it really talks about the power of self love. And he talks about his own personal journey, which hopefully he'll be on the podcast talking about that which will be great. And he gives a few tips.   Now his tips are as follows. Repeating the mantra of I love myself, just all the time and this affirmation to remind yourself to love yourself. And really shifting in replacing negative thoughts with more positive affirmations. Making self love a daily habit and being consistent with this, be it through meditation, affirmations, or just something you do every day.   And visualizing a positive future. So envisioning a life with self compassion and positive energy. As well as letting go of negative influences, and being really picky about who you're surrounding yourself with. N   ow, I read this book a couple of years ago, and it most certainly transformed my life. And then I was talking to an energy reader. I am into a lot of manifestation. And I've gotten very much into energy. And she told me to focus on self love. So I decided to get back into my self love practices, meaning, after I read his book, I really learned to love myself and make decisions in that light.   But I decided to take that practice one step further and cultivate a daily ritual. So actually, the first time I decided to do this, I looked in the mirror, and I told myself, I love you. And it was really awkward. And it felt really weird. And it freaked me out. Like it felt really strange.   And what's interesting about this is it was actually really hard to do, which makes me realize that loving ourselves isn't second nature. And it's something that we have to sort of teach ourselves to do again.   So come up with a ritual of self love for yourself that you can practice. It doesn't have to be like what I'm talking about here today, it can be anything that you feel is a good self love practice. The concept of looking into the mirror and saying I love you, you're lovable just for being you. It's similar to Mel Robbins, high five habit where you look in the mirror, you look yourself in the eye, and you give yourself a high five.   And similarly, it's just looking in the mirror and making eye contact with yourself. And even though you might be looking in the mirror when you're putting on your serums or your makeup, it's very different when you're looking in the mirror and you're actually being a friend to yourself. So try that and you'll see that at first it's really awkward, it feels very unnatural.   It might not even feel great and it can be a little confusing, but as you keep practicing it, it becomes less awkward. And you really start to embody that concept of loving yourself.   So that is one way that you can really energize yourself for long term success as opposed to the band aid solutions like self care mani pedi and massages. I'm not saying that they're not good but they really are a simple Band Aid fix for feeling chronically exhausted or being in survival mode.   And to dive deeper into this work, book a call with me, PriancaNaikMDcoaching.as.me. I've helped so many professional moms with these types of problems and see if you're someone that I can help too. Check it out. And thank you so much for tuning in and I will talk to you next week.

In this episode you will learn: What self-love is How to practice it Why it is beneficial   If you want to work with Coach Prianca Naik, MD, go to www.priancanaikmdcoaching.as.me to book a 30-minute consultation call. Follow Dr. Prianca on social media: https://www.facebook.com/prianca.naik https://www.instagram.com/stresscleansemd https://www.linkedin.com/in/prianca-naik-md-0524a196/ Today I want to talk about self-love because it is a tenet of peace, freedom, confidence and happiness. Without it you can't properly love others either or demonstrate healthy relationships to your children. Self-love. Sounds corny right? Corny or not, it's something we all need to learn. So many of us grew up watching Disney movies we were raised to find love and yet loving ourselves was never in the mix. I'm pretty sure we did love ourselves when we were born because we didn't know any better until things got in the way and destroyed that. Maybe we began to believe love from our parents was conditional or we could only be worthy of love if we were perfect or thin or achieving all of the things-a successful career etc. But I observe in my small children their love for themselves and try to take a cue! Let's try this: Being down with your weird and wonderful self We are multi-faceted, complex creatures. We have a ton of thoughts and feelings swirling around at all times. We do things we are not proud of sometimes. But we can learn, with work, determination and effort, to love ALL PARTS of ourselves. Whatttt? Yes, this is possible We don't have to hate anything about ourselves. I remember 7 years ago I told my therapist I loathed my anxiety. Loathed. That's such a strong word. I've come a long ways since then. I've developed methods to manage all emotions including anger and anxiety practicing mindfulness and no longer feel that way. Think about our attitudes toward dear friends or family members. Often we have compassion for them and their mistakes or whatever they perceive as negative. We will tell them not to be hard on themselves yet be so hard on ourselves. Learning to have compassion for ourselves is a key part of learning to love ourselves. Self-forgiveness as well. That is a practice that is a necessary in self-love. So how can you forgive yourself? Just a quick warning: this is deep internal work. It's not easy. But if you are interested in getting out of dysfunction or even into a better, less painful place, this is what is required. Going to tough places in your brain. So grab a pen and piece of paper…pause if you're driving or come back later. And write down what you believe to be all of your past mistakes. If you don't want to write them, simply brainstorm them. It may be a short or long list. Allow yourself to feel the negative emotions that accompany this reflection. Once you feel the negativity and sit with them, realizing it won't kill you…you also practice sitting in discomfort which is critical in leading a more peaceful, free life. And then you can move on. If you write these down on a sheet of paper you can rip the paper up and throw it after you've sat with your emotions. Now that we've addressed self-forgiveness you might be wondering how to go aobut learning to love yourself if you've listened this far: The process comes from Kamal Ravikant and his book Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends On It. In any new process we want our brain to automatically participate in, we must put in work. Self-directed neuroplasticity is when you intentionally rewire your brain to create positive habits. People do this primarily through active reflection. Yes, the term is a mouthful — but it's also a powerful, science-based method to break undesirable habits and create new, healthy ones What if you don't believe it? Doesn't matter. Your role is to lay down the pathway for doing it. Connect the neural pathways and your body and mind will respond automatically. Kamal Ravikant's process: Step 1: Mental Loop A thought loop is a pathway ebedded via use and habit. You can reverse this process. You can create your own focused mental loops. Repeat, “I love myself” again and again and again. Lay the pathway for that loop to run over and over. Eventually, it will take hold whether you believe it or not. Step 2: Meditation Each day, the author listens to a 7-minute piece of music that he likes and thinks, “I love myself.” Inhale > Think “I love myself” > Exhale >Release whatever thoughts you have. I would say being present with yourself Dinner alone, try alone time and enjoy your own company Step 3: Question “If I love myself truly and deeply, would I let myself experience this?” The answer was always “no” for the author. This question gently shifts your focus from wherever you are to self-love. Make the commitment and make it on paper. Make the vow to yourself to live your truth. Write down whatever it is that speaks to you. The words don't matter. Just make sure it comes from you and it is in your own words. That's how the magic will happen. Similarly, Kamal suggests we do this to ourselves: go right up against a mirror, face to face with yourself (focus on the left eye) and keep repeating, “I love myself” gently for 5 minutes (the number of times you say it doesn't matter). What matters is you look at yourself while saying it. Love yourself truly deeply Can edit Repeat Put where can see daily Create an easy ritual of self love in case you get lazy Self love comes in handy when dealing with difficult situations. The decisions. Write a Self-love love letter Ask what your friends love about you And most importantly make a commitment to do this. Keep a reminder that this is something you will try to do everyday And with practice you can learn to love yourself. Trust loving yourself and not abandoning yourself will help you simplify your life, make cleaner decisions (which I'll discuss in a future episode) and love your life. If you are feeling stuck are a professional mom with the seemingly perfect life but you're silently suffering on the inside, in survival mode and you've tried self-help, self-care, therapy, spinning on your Peloton and feel like this isn't helping you getting you to where you want to be and peace, freedom, confidence seem unattainable, book a call to chat with me to realize that it's not. That thriving is possible for you even if it seems like it's not. www.priancanaikmdcoaching.as.me

A wise person once said, “be careful with your words because the universe listens”. Words are so powerful, they can either build you or break you. When words are put together in the form of an incantation, their power rises to a whole new level.  Incantations are so powerful and magical they can transform your life and determine the course of your day. Many successful people may not openly share this in public but chanting incantations daily is the key ingredient to their success. Many others are doing it but do not have the slightest idea on what it's called. Learn how to create your own sets of incantations through this episode. You'll find great examples to guide you and teach you how to recite them in a manner that beckons power. Practice daily and succeed on purpose.   “Incantation is like a command to your subconscious.

        Episode #3: How to Get Rid of Mental Exhaustion   So many things in our daily lives today can lead to feelings of overwhelm and exhaustion. Here, Dr. Prianca discusses the most common factors contributing to these feelings and their antidotes. What you will learn: Common energy suckers How to care for yourself The importance of self-love To get started on getting out of survival mode and into your best life, book a 30-minute consultation call with Coach Prianca Naik, MD: www.priancanaikmdcoaching.as.me   Follow her on social media: https://www.facebook.com/prianca.naik https://www.instagram.com/stresscleansemd https://www.linkedin.com/in/prianca-naik-md-0524a196/   Join my FREE Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/646992382603860     [FULL TRANSCRIPT BELOW:] Hello! Thank you for joining me. I'm so glad you're here!   Today I want to talk about not wasting our precious energy.   Do you ever feel like you're totally drained and depleted?   You're exhausted and have a hard time prioritizing yourself. Like you're losing yourself?   Well, work is hard. being a mother is hard.   Take both of those Combine them together, and it is pretty damn trying!   Because being a mother is common/so many women are moms, maybe it seems like an ordinary job. But it is far from that as we know and we don't get enough credit or gratitude!   Because so many women are mothers, maybe it seems like it should be easy or we should be nonchalant about it, but in fact it's a lot of pressure. In this day and age with the internet and freely flowing information, standards are a lot higher than when our parents were rearing us.   Raising and nurturing children is one of the most important jobs in this world and yet we do it along with an income producing job.   Some mornings I find myself asking myself why do I feel so exhausted? And then I realize well, it's life:life can be exhausting.   So Why do we feel exhausted? Here are some reasons: 1) We want to be everything to everyone. 2) We put the needs of others in front of our own. 3) Perhaps we have a draining job and it bleeds into home life. 4) We may have a difficult spouse, boss, or parent. 5) We fail to care for ourselves. 6) We are going through a major life transition (moving, job change, divorce, pregnancy, or new child).   Yes, life can be tough. But we are fucking fierce. We can do hard things! Think of all that you've achieved up until now. Take a minute to write it down 5 hard things you've done in the past year and celebrate it. This will give you a boost!   Now I want to dive into Solutions to the 5 problems I mentioned   Issue number one-Being everything to everyone   But we just can't. I want you to absorb that one. We have to pick our priorities (lets say we decide: partner and kids) And even when we want to help them, we must take care of and love ourselves in order to have energy to do so. Self-care-there's a buzzword. I want to address self-care here bc spa days/massages/bubble baths are all good and well But there's so much more to self-care than that. The way to truly give to oneself is through mind management and self love. In terms of managing the mind, shifting how we see the world Is critical. When something bad happens ask yourself, how is the situation serving me how is the situation propelling me in the right direction to where I want to go. Even though the tough time or bad news may not seem helpful at all. Issue number 2 we put the needs of others in front of our own…the solution to this is loving ourselves and getting rid of people-pleasing which I'll address in episode 4. Self-love. There's a concept. It's funny; I have two children under the age of 5 and they love themselves so much. It's remarkable. My baby loves seeing herself in the mirror. My 4 year old is so proud of himself. I believe we are born loving ourselves. Unfornately, life circumstances, high standards, not good enoughness are often shoved down our throats in our childhoods. And self-love seems like such a stretch.   I read a book called Love Yourself Like Your Life depends on It by Kamal Ravikant and it changed my life. He talks about loving ourselves in whatever way that means. How about having respect and love for ourselves to not allow people to talk to us in a demeaning way? I realized that self-love is a key to fulfillment and happiness. I will dive deeper into this in a future episode, but for now I will say as unnatural as it may feel, we must embrace ourselves for who we are and love ourselves unconditionally as we would our own children. I challenge you to hold your hand on your chest and tell yourself “I love myself” practice this every day and see how you feel. You must practice, because unfortunately self-love as an adult no longer comes naturally. We can take a cue from our young children. The more we practice, the more natural it will become. In terms of people-pleasing: People-pleasing and taking care of others are concepts that are deeply drilled into many of us. I was specifically taught in middle school by both my grandma and mother to not be selfish and I realized as I got older I ended up harming myself at times trying to do this. I would cause a lot of stress for myself bending over backwards for others. So we really have to re-evaluate helping others at our own expense which often leaves us depleted I will talk about this more in a future episode.   Issue 3 We have a draining job and it bleeds into home life. Medicine-we are helping people constantly. So it is draining. We are giving. This can often be while sacrificing our own happiness and stability. And often we aren't treated well or we are disrespected and this can be tiring also. Boundaries are key in combatting this along with time management. Boundaries of not taking a patient or family's disrespect. Many of us may be used to getting dumped on at work. But we really don't have to take it. We aren't victims of our jobs. We can empower ourselves to take control of our life experience. I had a very rude daughter of a patient snapping at me and I could feel myself getting triggered. Clearly, they were frustrated with their situation which I understand. Elderly folks who were once independent with health problems it's a tough thing to deal with and go through no doubt. But it's not an excuse to treat me badly. The situation isn't my fault So I stopped her and her tracks and told her: I am a human being and I am trying to help you and work with you and I deserve respect. She kept quiet and her whole tone and body language changed. Baby steps. We aren't victims! We can maintain professionalism and create boundaries simultaneously. Similarly, doctor moms this one is for you-we can create systems to finish our notes before we go home. So that we can be present with our children instead of typing away at the computer to finish our work. Issue number 4 we may have a difficult spouse, boss Difficult people often make us feel unlucky Why do I have to deal with this? This is so unfair! Stuck with this person. We can't control them In fact, we can't control anything outside of ourselves! But what we can control, what is so empowering is that we can control ourselves!! We can decide: Not to absorb peoples stories Not to try to convince them regarding anything about us To decide to focus on ourselves and our peace and happiness Yung Pueblo says: “Maturity is being able to maintain your energy [the way you want it to be] when someone close to you was trying to drag you into their storm. You hear them, you see them, you offer support, BUT at the same time you let their attention be theirs and you let your peace be yours.” And if we find a place to be toxic or a career choice to be toxic we can always change it. I promise. No matter how impossible it seems. We can do the impossible. And don't forget that. Issue 5 We fail to love and care for ourselves: We must do this. How can you love yourself today? How can you honor the concept of self-love. How can you care for yourself? If you think you don't have the time, I challenge you to take 5 minutes in the morning to take time for yourself. Could be as simple as savoring your morning cup of coffee or taking a quick walk or stretching Issue 6 we are going through a major life transition (moving, job change, divorce, new child) These circumstances are tough ones But we must remember: this too shall pass; And realizing that we got this. Always. Just like we always have. Just like we always will Sometimes we need to take it one hour at a time when things get rough; and know that the tough time is temporary. We must hone in on filling our cup Some methods with which to do this include the following: Sleep hygiene, connection with others, alone time, or something that rejuvenates you to help you as you navigate your way through a big change. Next, I'm going to dive in to when you're feeling overwhelmed, what can you do to make sure that the overwhelm doesn't overtake you? There are two major ways to lighten our mental exhaustion One is to unload it to someone else Two is to put energy into ourselves or self-energize. I will discuss 10 practical tips you can implement that employ these two principles. This pandemic has been a cluster for many of us. Adds to our decision fatigue and mental load. A lot of us have children who are not old enough to get vaccinated right? So it makes it tough figuring out where we want to take them within our comfort levels and risk benefit levels to make decisions on what to do with them. Or even what to do with ourselves and how that will affect them. So one way to unload our mental load is to take advantage of the fact that we get Decide how we are going to spend our brain space and energy An example of this: In the beginning of January a much-needed girls trip was planned Thursday through Sunday in Florida now mind you we were supposed to go to Turks and Caicos but we canceled it because if you have a negative Covid test you cannot come back into the country for 10 days and I cannot be away from my children for that long/have my parents take care of them at that point. Instead, we decided to go to the Florida Keys. I was very much looking forward to this rest, relaxation, and gossip session with my closest medical school girlfriends. And of course as always my son was sick and had been sick and I was afraid that if he had Covid he would have given it to my parents who were watching him, but I needed this trip.   So I decided to assume the best and not expend mental time and energy worrying. On one hand, if I had catastrophized that my kid had covid even though we all had it already, I could assume I would have to cancel the trip. Or if he has it and tests negative my dad who is helping to watch him will get covid and die. However, my dad is boosted and already had covid. Which left me with: Would I have to cancel my trip? My game plan boiled down to watching and waiting, which we all do all the time. Even though a lot of times when unknowns present themselves, we behave as though it's a shock.   And we feel thrown off kilter. But practicing dealing with these situations can throw us off less and less over time.   And the conclusion of that story was-my kids were fine, my dad was fine. I went on the trip and had an awesome time. The unknown is pretty much all of life so we need to cultivate a system to deal with it so it doesn't bother us… How we can handle the unknown so it doesn't drive us nuts: We have the power, so We can: -decide how much time we are going to spend stressing over a given issue -decide what we want to happen or hope will happen -decide to focus on the possitve possibility instead of negfative bc we cant control the outcome but we can control our lens on a given situation   In my situation: I decided that my kid was going to feel ok The illness wasn't covid since we all already had it Assumed the best so it wouldnt ruin my moments leading up to my departure date Often we prepare for the worst in advance, but this doesn't add anything and simply detracts by spending our precious time and energy. So by focusing on a positive possibility: We lose absolutely nothing and in fact, gain Time, energy (which we would have lost in catastrophizing), a positive attitude Now I'm going to address how to self-energize In order to not be mentally drained How can we do this? Write down a list of our priorities in work, with ourselves, at home in the bigger picture. Keep that list in a visible place. It Doesn't matter who sees it and judges. That used to embarrass me. What if someone sees my motivational posts? It doesn't matter!! Take time (it can be even 5-10 minutes) for yourself everyday. On the busiest of days this can be savoring your morning coffee. I like to do that. Or 10 minutes of meditation Create more free space in your days This one is a tough one w busy jobs, meal planning, kids' activities, relationship nurturing, parties and gatherings now that COVID seems to be calming down. BUT we can actually decide to create free space in our days I find when I'm feeling rushed and have no breathing space I feel exasperated and bogged down. I have a loose rule to not do more than one activity with friends a week. And to have one thing I can look forward to weekly which may or may not include that Overscheduling is something I had struggled with pre pandemic then it was done for me and I could breathe. I find activities creeping back in and I now have to go back to being conscious about it. The more breathing room I have, the lighter I feel. Journaling or getting out the stress.  Journal for 5 min a day to get your woes out and leave them on the paper Call a friend if you can to get it out. This can be so heklpful Ask for help from friends, family, a professional Outsource tasks that don't bring you joy, put some work in (find a trainer, or therapist or coach) invest in yourself and the pay off can be priceless Exercise-A 5-10 minute walk or jog can boost endorphins and energize you Get a good night's sleep.  Here are some sleep hygiene tips: create a bedtime set an alarm for that time no devices 15 min before bed get ready for bed well in advance give yourself time to decompress journal beforehand if you're the kidn of person who stays up worrying avoid late caffeine 14.  Schedule fun. This is a big one. People forget to have fun in the grind of daily life. 15.  Soak in the small moments. Kids jokes, smiles, laughs, candor. There are so many and they're transient.   Remember, in episode 1, I talked about living a life with intention. If you haven't listened to it definitely take the time to do so!   We have to live consciously, put some effort into this life and if we do so, contentment, happiness, a sense of fulfillment is right there for us. For the taking!   We can create energy for ourselves and combat our sense of physical and mental exhaustion.   We have to power to create our dream life. One baby step at a time.   Go out there and try the above methods, folks!   Let me know if it works for you You can check out the show notes if you're a visual learner and print out the tips.   Talk to you next time!
