Before Bipolar Disorder struck at 25, Ioannis was thriving — a two‑time college graduate, fit, focused, and full of momentum. Then everything collapsed.At 25 he lost his first professional job and plunged into a severe depression, tormented by voices. With no health insurance, he spent two years in a State Mental Institution, trapped in a cavernous abyss that felt endless. Wrong medications battered him with brutal side effects; one even triggered Afib, turning survival into a daily fight.But after his release, the long climb back began. A chance encounter with Cuckoo's Nest star Jack Nicholson lit a spark. From the wreckage, Ioannis forged his Six Point Method — a way to live with an incurable condition without surrendering to it.Today Ioannis shares his story with us.You can find his contact information, his book and an outline of his 6 points here... ioannisskiotes.com▶ WATCH MORE VIDEOS…✅ In the Line of Duty: Cops v's Mental illness | Mark MI Words

In XYBM 161, we sit down with Londrelle — musician, poet, author, and meditation teacher — for one of the most spiritually rich and introspective conversations in the show's history. Londrelle breaks down what true freedom really means, why self-inquiry and journaling are essential tools for any man trying to heal, and how surrender to God is not weakness but the most powerful decision a man can make. He also opens up about heartbreak, promiscuity, and his near-death experience — that became the turning point in his journey back to himself.This is a must-watch for any Black man who feels disconnected from himself, stuck on autopilot, or searching for a deeper relationship with God — and for anyone ready to stop running from their healing and start returning home to who they really are.Tune in on all podcast streaming platforms, including YouTube.Leave a 5-star review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ if you found value in this episode or a previous episode!BOOK US FOR SPEAKING + BRAND DEALS:————————————Explore our diverse collaboration opportunities as the leading and fastest-growing Black men's mental health platform on social media.

Often times we place so much pressure on ourselves to achieve the goal, whatever it may be, that we for get that one step forward is better than no steps forward. There is no such thing as failure, unless you quit. Everything in life is practice. Athletes practice to compete and then consider the competition practice for the next competition. Thinking this way can actually bleed over into life as well. Everything we do is just practice for life. Persistence, dedication, discipline, learning to deal with setbacks. Meditation is the same way. We are practicing for life. Mindfully. One breath at a time.

Money can change my environment, but it cannot fix my mindset or regulate my emotions. If I don't build a strong foundation, more money only amplifies the weaknesses that already exist. I focus on the inner work because real stability comes from within, not from what I can buy. The stronger my mind, the better I can handle the opportunities that money brings. Show Notes: [07:51]#1 Emotional control under pressure cannot be purchased. [09:36]#2 Money does not buy you freedom from anxiety and overthinking. [11:50]#3 Mental stability and composure cannot be purchased. [15:36] Recap Next Steps: --- Execution is not a talent. It is a standard.

What happens when the career that defined your identity suddenly disappears? This week on The Suffering Podcast, we sit down with Erik Malmstrom, whose life journey is one of loyalty, loss, resilience, and rediscovering purpose after unimaginable change. Raised in the tight-knit neighborhood of Crum Lynne in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, Erik grew up surrounded by generations of family, lifelong friendships, and a home filled with both love and chaos. As a child, he often found himself in the middle of his parents' conflicts while fiercely protecting the person he cared about most—his younger sister. Sports became his outlet, and ice hockey became his passion. A captain on his high school team, Erik learned early lessons in leadership, brotherhood, and perseverance that would shape the rest of his life. After college, Erik unexpectedly discovered his calling working with court-adjudicated youth. For 15 years, he served in a role that demanded equal parts law enforcement officer, teacher, counselor, and father figure. He found purpose in helping young people navigate difficult circumstances while building deep bonds with coworkers who became family. But everything changed. After years of dedication—including more than a decade of being on call 24/7—the program that had become his home was shut down. At just 39 years old, Erik lost not only his career, but also his identity, community, and sense of purpose. Faced with unemployment, financial uncertainty, and the responsibility of supporting a wife and three children, Erik took whatever work he could find—including loading trucks at UPS at 3 a.m. for $10 an hour. The financial loss was painful, but the emotional loss was even greater. He describes it as feeling like "a body without a soul." Like so many people who dedicate themselves to service professions, Erik struggled with trauma, toxic family dynamics, alcohol use, and the difficult question many ask after major life changes: Who am I when the job is gone? Through self-reflection, recovery, family, and eventually rediscovering his purpose working with adult offenders, Erik began rebuilding his life from the ground up. Today, Erik is the founder of EM Personal Development, where he uses over two decades of professional experience and personal adversity to help others navigate change, leadership, mental health, relationships, and personal growth. This episode is about much more than career loss. It's about identity. It's about brotherhood. It's about trauma. And ultimately, it's about finding purpose again when life forces you to start over. In This Episode: Growing up in Delco and navigating family chaos Protecting loved ones while carrying adult burdens as a child Brotherhood, hockey, and lifelong friendships Finding purpose working with court-adjudicated youth Leadership in high-stress environments Losing a career and identity overnight The hidden grief of losing camaraderie and mission Alcohol as a coping mechanism Fatherhood, marriage, and rebuilding after loss Mental health and middle-aged reinvention Creating EM Personal Development Helping others navigate change and adversity Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

If you ever wonder, “Why am I so hard on myself, and how do I stop letting self criticism run my life?” then we need to talk… because that harsh inner critic is doing more harm than good! In this episode of the Let's Talk About Mental Health podcast, I'm talking about being hard on yourself: that harsh inner voice that picks everything apart, keeps you stuck in negative self-talk, and makes you believe you have to beat yourself up in order to improve. Spoiler alert: you don't. Because being too hard on yourself doesn't make you stronger, or more disciplined, or more successful; it usually fuels self-criticism and anxiety, low self-worth, fear of failure, and that horrible feeling that nothing you do is ever good enough. So, in this episode, I'll help you understand where your inner critic comes from, why that self-critical voice feels so convincing, and how to stop putting yourself down without pretending everything is fine. I'll walk you through practical mental health tips for inner critic healing, including how to be less hard on yourself, how to create space from painful thoughts, and how to move forward with more kindness, confidence, and peace.

En este nuevo capítulo de La Galería Nocturna, retomamos nuestras pláticas con el talento nacional para conversar con Miguel (vocalista) e Iván (baterista) de The Brain Rage. Originaria de Puebla, esta agrupación está redefiniendo el metal en México gracias a su potente mezcla de groove, progresivo, velocidad y la integración de elementos electrónicos. A lo largo de esta charla profunda, exploramos la evolución de la banda y los retos de hacer metal de calidad y de exportación. Durante la entrevista descubrimos el concepto detrás de su música, el cual inició abordando temas de protesta social, política y religiosa en su primer álbum llamado Control. Posteriormente, la banda decidió explorar de lleno los trastornos psicológicos en su segundo álbum de 2024, Mental, tocando temas como la piromanía en el sencillo "Ignite" y las adicciones en "Break it". De manera ingeniosa, al juntar el título de ambos trabajos, se revela el hilo conductor de la agrupación: "Control Mental". Al profundizar en sus influencias, Iván detalla cómo la genialidad de bateristas como Mike Portnoy y Bill Bruford inspiró composiciones épicas como "Deep Rest" y la incursión de texturas y baterías electrónicas. Por su parte, Miguel construye su estilo vocal y lírico basándose en leyendas tan variadas como Pink Floyd, Bob Dylan, Zack de la Rocha, Phil Anselmo y Joe Duplantier. Además, nos relatan la increíble experiencia de trabajar con el virtuoso tecladista Derek Sherinian (ex-Dream Theater, Planet X), quien tras escuchar un demo, grabó todas las líneas de teclado de "Ignite" en cuestión de horas, abriéndoles la puerta a un sonido mucho más orquestal y dándoles una enorme exposición internacional. La conversación también aborda la cruda realidad de la escena metalera. La banda reflexiona sobre el doloroso fenómeno de ser más reconocidos y lograr recintos llenos en países como Costa Rica y Colombia que en su propio país, destacando al mismo tiempo la valiosa labor de promotores y colectivos como Mexapedia por apostar genuinamente por los circuitos nacionales ante la falta de espacios. A manera de consejo para las nuevas generaciones, Miguel e Iván comparten su filosofía de éxito: ver a la banda como una empresa, ser constantes, jamás faltar a los ensayos, cuidar minuciosamente la calidad del sonido en vivo y realizar grabaciones lo más profesionales posibles sin importar los recursos. Para finalizar, The Brain Rage nos adelanta que ya se encuentran trabajando en la composición de su tercer disco, el cual mantendrá un enfoque conceptual, y nos invitan a sus próximas presentaciones en el Brutal Fest de la Ciudad de México y en las ediciones del Mexafest en Jalisco, Puebla y Tuxtla. Como ya es costumbre, cerramos el episodio repasando nuestra inmensa agenda metalera con todos los conciertos y festivales que llegarán al país en los próximos meses.

Tu fais tes sorties en endurance fondamentale, tu fais ton fractionné chaque semaine, tu coches toutes les cases… et pourtant tu as l'impression de ne pas progresser. C'est exactement la question qu'Adélaïde m'a envoyée, et je comprends sa frustration : ce sentiment de stagnation, c'est démotivant. Dans cet épisode je réponds à sa question et je te donne les clés pour comprendre pourquoi ça bloque et comment relancer ta progression.Cet épisode est sponsorisé par Nutripure :Vous bénéficiez de 10% de réduction sur votre première commande avec le code HAMSTERS.

Et c'est justement le premier piège. Avant de chercher ce qui cloche dans l'entraînement, il faut sortir du ressenti et mesurer vraiment la progression : une fréquence cardiaque qui baisse à allure égale, une capacité à courir plus longtemps avec moins de fatigue, c'est aussi une forme de progrès, même sans record ni test de VMA.Une fois ce constat posé, je passe en revue les causes les plus fréquentes de stagnation quand on fait déjà de l'EF et du fractionné. Le réflexe naturel, c'est de vouloir rajouter de l'intensité comme un fractionné en plus, des séances plus dures. Sauf que c'est souvent contre-productif : fatigue, risque de blessure, et surtout on passe à côté de la vraie base à consolider avant de parler vitesse.Je t'explique pourquoi ton endurance fondamentale n'est peut-être pas si fondamentale que ça, pourquoi la sortie longue est souvent la grande oubliée du plan, comment varier tes séances de fractionné pour éviter de stagner sur des allures obsolètes, et pourquoi la récupération reste l'ingrédient le plus négligé de la progression. De quoi transformer ce sentiment de stagnation en vraie compréhension de ce qui se joue dans ton corps.Dans cet épisode :Comment transformer un simple "sentiment" de stagnation en mesure réelle de ta progression ?Pourquoi rajouter de l'intensité peut être contre-productif quand tu stagnes ?Comment savoir si tes sorties en endurance fondamentale sont vraiment assez faciles ?Pourquoi la sortie longue est souvent la pièce manquante de ton plan d'entraînement ?Qu'est-ce que le trio EF-volume-sortie longue et pourquoi il débloque tes fractionnés ?Comment varier tes séances de fractionné pour éviter de stagner sur des allures dépassées ?Pourquoi courir aux sensations peut t'éviter de t'entraîner sur des allures obsolètes ?Pourquoi la récupération est-elle la clé silencieuse de toute progression ?Nouveau : Le protocole Perte de Gras 2026 ❤️ Me suivre : Tous les liens sont ici
Only in this past year did it come on my radar that some therapy clinics are offering prenatal therapy. While I can personally relate to the desire to have a therapist guide you through such a complex stage of health, I thought that because it isn't offered widely, the evidence base would probably be weak.I couldn't have been more wrong. The evidence for prenatal prevention therapy is robust for improving:Pelvic health. Pelvic floor muscle training during pregnancy reduces urinary incontinence by 28% and cuts the risk of severe perineal tears in half (Zhang et al., 2024).Pregnancy outcomes. Prenatal exercise programs lower the risk of gestational diabetes by 25%, hypertensive disorders by 33%, and cesarean delivery by 14% (Xiang et al., 2026).Mental health. Mind-body interventions like yoga, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral therapy significantly reduce prenatal anxiety, depression, and stress — while also improving pain management and self-efficacy (Miao et al., 2026).Maternal role and quality of life. OT-specific prenatal interventions improve maternal quality of life, emotional regulation, and coping — with benefits that persist into the postpartum period (Karakus & Akyurek, 2026).Despite this evidence, prenatal therapy remains vastly underutilized. The gap between what the research supports and what is actually available to pregnant individuals represents one of the biggest opportunities in our profession right now.In this course, we'll welcome Marissa Ruhl from Thrive OT, who is paving the way in offering these services and will share what she has learned about helping to build a thriving practice around this massive need.See full course details here:https://otpotential.com/continuing-education/course/prenatal-therapy See all OT CEU courses here:https://otpotential.com/ceu-podcast-coursesCheck our our live webinar schedule here:https://otpotential.com/live-ot-ceu-webinarsSupport the show by using the OTPOTENTIAL Medbridge Code:https://otpotential.com/blog/promo-code-for-medbridgeTry 2 free OT Potential courses here:https://otpotential.com/free-ot-ceusSupport the show
We spend most of our lives afraid. We spend most of our lives worrying about what has been or what could be. We spend our life thinking about all the bad things that are possible. But we very often forget the other side of possibility. All the good things that could happen. Good or bad, neither are true, unless we say so. This meditation hopes to help remind us that we have the universe inside of us and to ask the question how much better could things get? One breath at a time.

RIP Sam Neill, star of Event Horizon, In the Mouth of Madness, and some movie with big lizards.What is your feedbag taking the form of? What's being dumped in your trough? Did you ask for it? Wouldn't you like to have more variety and less thought and perception manipulation by these sites? Ever feel like there's a guiding hand attempting to radicalize you? Is there focused effort being made to inspire strong reactions? Is the manipulation based on a psychological profile? How accurate in predicting what will set people off can they get? Have they been successful in Distracting you, making you forget what you were doing, engage for too long, or alter your mood whether positively or negatively? Our phones and computers are being used against us in an A Clockwork Orange manner. They are shaping behaviors in many, and keeping people locked in certain thought patterns so as to guide their perception through very distinct filters. Reality is seen differently since the heavy reliance on devices to give you answers to all of your queries and curiosities. This could lead to the destruction of proper observation, comprehension, and perhaps the most tragic, the death of Imagination, and creativity. That is what sets mankind apart from the more diabolical and subhuman forms life [or animation] takes in our realm.Subscribe over here, too: https://www.youtube.com/@WisdomFitnessAZGo to my site:https://SemperFryLLC.comBB Twittz: https://x.com/KristosCastJoin the Patreon with this link:https://www.patreon.com/c/KristosCastNew Channel on YT:https://www.youtube.com/@WisdomFitnessAZJoin Dr. Glidden's Membership site here:https://leavebigpharmabehind.com/?via=pgndhealthUse Code: baalbusters for 25% OFFMake Dr. Glidden Your DoctorUse Code BB5 here for your 90 Essential Nutrients:https://www.azurestandard.com/shop/brand/azurewell/2326The Azure Whole Food Essential Nutrients are 1.

CONTENT WARNING: Themes of suicidaility and drug use Back in Newcastle for the weekend, I jump in the car and let the city tell the story. We drive past the places that shaped me, from the University of Newcastle and the pressure of honours, to the Mater Hospital where survival became the priority. It's a raw, real-time reflection on what it's like returning to the streets that forged you.Along the way I talk about living with ADHD, autism and borderline personality disorder, and how that mix can fuel loneliness, validation seeking and the feeling of never quite being enough. I also unpack the reality of drugs and alcohol, not as a way to have fun, but as a way so many people try to cope, function and simply make it through the day.We finish down at the beaches where I used to do some of my deepest thinking, reflecting on social anxiety, recovery, and the strange feeling of loving your hometown while knowing you had to leave it to survive.If this episode resonates with you, I'd love it if you subscribed, left a rating, and shared it with someone who might need to hear it.--Follow The Dysregulated Podcast: Instagram – @elliot.t.waters Facebook – The Dysregulated Podcast YouTube – The Dysregulated Podcast (Official Channel)Created by Elliot Waters — Inspired by lived experience.

In this C&C-less Packard 443 Episode, Tim drops a turd… off so our buddy Matt can start his next project while Mental hides from the Vegas sun. Really we talk to our buddy Paul, the creator of the Distilled Racing 41 Ford. What happens when a retired contractor decides that "good enough" isn't nearly crazy enough? Well, He Built the Ultimate LS-Swapped '41 Ford, and it became one of the most talked-about cars in the 24 Hours of Lemons paddock....

Every lap supports a cause far bigger than racing. Wanna be a part of it? Reach out to us, we'll put you in touch. Along the way we also dive into:
In this episode, we open up about the side of ACL rehab that almost no one prepares you for, the mental toll that runs right alongside the physical recovery. We talk about why this process is a rollercoaster and not the clean linear path people expect, why the negative thoughts tend to hit harder than the wins, and what happens when the crutches ared done and everyone around you assumes you are fine while you are still deep in it. Whether you are an athlete fresh off surgery, someone years out still searching for answers, a clinician guiding these cases, or a parent or partner supporting someone you love, this one is a reminder that the mental half of recovery deserves just as much attention as the physical, and that no one should be walking this road alone._________Want a clear plan for your ACL rehab?1 on 1 Remote ACL Coaching is for ACLers who are tired of guessing.

What if the key to better productivity is not doing more, but learning how to manage the stress that quietly controls your day? For many professionals, stress shows up as overwhelm, impatience, anxiety, physical tension, unhealthy habits, or the feeling that life is constantly pulling them out of balance. But according to Dr. Ronald "Ron" Dushkin, MD, stress is not just something to push through. It is something to understand, observe, and manage with intention. In this episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Dr. Ronald Dushkin, a renowned holistic physician and stress management expert with over three decades of transformative experience. He is also the author of Manage Your Stress, Manage Your Life, a practical and compassionate guide to building a healthier, calmer, and more productive life. Together, Gerald and Ron explore the mind-body and body-mind connection, the power of morning routines, and why awareness is the first step to changing how stress affects your health, productivity, and relationships. Ron shares why laughter, music, gratitude, meditation, and healthy boundaries are not small lifestyle details, but essential tools for managing stress before it becomes chronic. Ron also introduces his concept of "first reactions," explaining how stress can appear mentally, emotionally, physically, or behaviorally. When we learn to recognize these first reactions without judgment, we can respond with more compassion, clarity, and control instead of letting stress run our lives. The conversation also dives into the importance of gratitude as one of the most powerful stress management practices. Ron leads listeners through a simple gratitude exercise and explains why feeling grateful can interrupt stress in the moment. Gerald also shares his personal experience recovering from vertigo and how gratitude, meditation, movement, and self-awareness helped him rebuild his energy and redefine what productivity really means. If you are a professional, leader, caregiver, or high achiever who often feels stretched thin, this episode will help you slow down, listen to your body, and build practical habits that support both productivity and wellbeing. Ready to manage your stress before it manages you? Listen now and discover how awareness, gratitude, boundaries, and intentional living can help you create a healthier and more productive life.

As we move through the world, it's easy to imagine we're processing everything that happens around us and then deciding how to respond. But psychologist and neuroscientist Norman Farb says our brains actually navigate the world by coming up with mental maps. These maps act like an autopilot system, allowing us to navigate our lives more efficiently. But sometimes, they can lead us astray, leaving us stuck on a path of negativity and unhappiness. This week, in a favorite episode from 2024, we talk with Norman Farb about how we can update our internal maps and see the world more clearly. Then, Dave Evans answers your questions about radical acceptance. If you love listening to Hidden Brain, you can now watch it as well!

Have you ever felt like your mind is completely unprotected against the non-stop cascade of notifications, digital stress, and collective anxiety? Welcome to Day 1 of our master series, The Mental Immune System: Retraining Your Brain's Natural Defenses. Today, we unlock the foundational gateway of your psychological armor by exploring the profound developmental arc of Release. Before you can build new layers of mental resilience, you must first clear out the toxic, high-frequency static that is currently exhausting your cognitive resources. In this introductory session, we explore the groundbreaking science of the "Mental Immune System." We look at the work of evolutionary geneticists and physicians like Dr. Michael Nehls, who reveal how our brains were evolutionarily designed to absorb vital, protective trace minerals—like lithium—straight from our natural groundwater to buffer us against aggression, impulsivity, and despair. We journey back to ancient societies who drank from mineral-dense, living springs, automatically anchoring their brains in an unshakeable state of biochemical safety. Over the course of this series, you will learn how chronic digital overstimulation causes your brain stem to hold onto a tight, defensive bracing pattern that mimics a severe physical illness.

With over 30 years in the field, Dr. Alfie challenges the stereotypes baked into mainstream mental health research, breaks down what the data actually says about Black men across socioeconomic lines, and delivers a masterclass on the difference between surviving and thriving. She introduces the Mosaic of Me identity framework from her book Rise and Thrive, gets real about compensation, self-worth, and what it means to know your value as a Black man, and shares her own personal history with depression — twice — including the story of public humiliation that followed her for eight years and the mindfulness practice that finally helped her heal.Tune in on all podcast streaming platforms, including YouTube.Leave a 5-star review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ if you found value in this episode or a previous episode!BOOK US FOR SPEAKING + BRAND DEALS:————————————Explore our diverse collaboration opportunities as the leading and fastest-growing Black men's mental health platform on social media.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1744DM David Ghiyam spent years around Fortune 500 CEOs and A-list celebrities. He watched what fame actually did to their kids. One billionaire, from a family with generational wealth, told him his family was cursed. Sickness. Addiction. Mental illness. Every generation. David says it's not a curse. It's a mismatch. You can only hold as much energy as your vessel allows. Pour in more than you can carry and you short circuit. A flash of light, then darkness. That's what happens when we chase relationships, money, or approval we haven't actually built the capacity for. David's answer? Stop borrowing everyone else's certainty. Stop living off your mom's opinion or your fear of picking wrong. Go all in. Finish what you start, even if it's wrong. That's the only way you ever get free.
