Our dialogue delves into the intricacies of anxiety and the underlying emotions that often fuel it. I invite listeners to reflect on their relationship with anxiety and how to discern the subtle messages it communicates.A significant focus of our discussion is the Hidden Emotion Model—a technique I learned and refined during my training that unveils the repressed feelings driving anxiety. Dr. Burns eloquently explains how individuals, often conscientious and "nice," suppress emotions like fear, anger, and disappointment, which leads to heightened anxiety. By recognizing and articulating these hidden emotions, individuals can often alleviate their anxiety significantly. Dr. Burns shares a compelling vignette involving a man struggling with panic attacks after receiving unexpected news about parenthood. This example illustrates the necessity of acknowledging uncomfortable emotions to pave the way for healing.Our conversation also touches on the societal stigmas surrounding emotional expression, particularly for those who identify as "nice" people. Dr. Burns and I explore how mental health diagnostics can inadvertently contribute to feelings of shame and inadequacy among patients. It's a powerful reminder that many who battle anxiety face not only internal struggles but external societal pressures that may dictate how they should feel or behave.#Anxiety, #PanicAttacks, #MentalHealth, #CBT, #DrDavidBurns, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #FeelingGood, #FeelingGreat, #Psychology, #Mindfulness, #SelfHelp, #Recovery, #Wellness, #Healing, #StressRelief, #InnerPeace, #MentalWellness, #SelfCare, #Therapy, #Coaching, #EmotionalIntelligence, #NervousSystem, #OvercomingAnxiety, #PanicDisorder, #SocialAnxiety, #MentalHealthAwareness, #EndTheStigma, #GrowthMindset, #Authenticity, #Boundaries, #SelfLove, #IntrusiveThoughts, #OCD, #HealthAnxiety, #MindfulLiving, #Breathwork, #Meditation, #Zen, #Spirituality, #PersonalGrowth, #Resilience, #Empowerment, #HealthyMind, #AnxietyRelief, #StressManagement, #Psychotherapy, #Counseling, #WellnessJourney, #LifeCoaching, #MentalHealthMatters, #AnxietySupportSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
LESSON 67Love Created Me Like Itself.Today's idea is a complete and accurate statement of what you are. This is why you are the light of the world. This is why God appointed you as the world's savior. This is why the Son of God looks to you for his salvation. He is saved by what you are. We will make every effort today to reach this truth about you, and to realize fully, if only for a moment, that it is the truth.In the longer practice period, we will think about your reality and its wholly unchanged and unchangeable nature. We will begin by repeating this truth about you, and then spend a few minutes adding some relevant thoughts, such as:Holiness created me holy.Kindness created me kind.Helpfulness created me helpful.Perfection created me perfect.Any attribute which is in accord with God as He defines Himself is appropriate for use. We are trying today to undo your definition of God and replace it with His Own. We are also trying to emphasize that you are part of His definition of Himself.After you have gone over several such related thoughts, try to let all thoughts drop away for a brief preparatory interval, and then try to reach past all your images and preconceptions about yourself to the truth in you. If Love created you like Itself, this Self must be in you. And somewhere in your mind It is there for you to find.You may find it necessary to repeat the idea for today from time to time to replace distracting thoughts. You may also find that this is not sufficient, and that you need to continue adding other thoughts related to the truth about yourself. Yet perhaps you will succeed in going past that, and through the interval of thoughtlessness to the awareness of a blazing light in which you recognize yourself as Love created you. Be confident that you will do much today to bring that awareness nearer, whether you feel you have succeeded or not.It will be particularly helpful today to practice the idea for the day as often as you can. You need to hear the truth about yourself as frequently as possible, because your mind is so preoccupied with false self-images. Four or five times an hour, and perhaps even more, it would be most beneficial to remind yourself that Love created you like Itself. Hear the truth about yourself in this.Try to realize in the shorter practice periods that this is not your tiny, solitary voice that tells you this. This is the Voice for God, reminding you of your Father and of your Self. This is the Voice of truth, replacing everything that the ego tells you about yourself with the simple truth about the Son of God. You were created by Love like Itself.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

This week on I Am Dad Podcast, guest host Dr. Matisa Wilbon of the Moynihan Institute for Fatherhood Research and Policy takes the host chair for a powerful conversation with fellow institute colleague Dr. David Miller, a researcher focused on the mental health and social development of Black men, fathers, and families. Drawing from his academic research and personal experience as a father of two daughters and a son, Dr. Miller explores a topic that has received far too little scholarly attention: the sacred bond between Black fathers and daughters. Their conversation examines the emotional, psychological, and cultural importance of father involvement in daughters' lives—even when fathers do not live in the same household. Dr. Miller shares findings from interviews with non-residential fathers and daughters that reveal an important truth: daughters continue to need affirmation, guidance, and presence from their fathers well into adulthood. Together, Wilbon and Miller discuss: Why the father–daughter relationship is critical to girls' mental health • The myth of the “absent father” narrative • The emotional toll on fathers who are separated from their children • How fathers shape daughters' self-esteem and identity • Why dads must talk to daughters about relationships, race, and beauty • The importance of racial pride and positive affirmations from fathers • Co-parenting challenges and policy barriers affecting father involvement • Why mental health support for fathers matters just as much as for children The episode also addresses the uncomfortable but necessary conversations fathers must have with daughters about relationships, sexuality, safety, and self-worth. Dr. Miller argues that when fathers provide affirming messages about identity, beauty, and resilience, they help counter the harmful stereotypes Black girls face in society. This conversation is not only about research—it is about healing, growth, and creating stronger relationships between fathers and daughters across generations.

In this episode, Dr. K explains why pornography addiction is one of the hardest habits to break and why it acts like a "nuclear bomb" on the brain's circuitry. He provides a biological roadmap for recovery, moving beyond simple willpower to address the deeper issues of loneliness, emotional regulation, and brain chemistry. What to expect in this episode: The "Nuclear Bomb" Effect: Why pornography is more addictive than many drugs because it hijacks the survival circuits of the brain that are designed for procreation. The Dopamine Tank: How using pornography early in the day "empties your tank," making it physically harder to find motivation or joy in other activities like working or studying. A "Digital" Band-Aid: An analysis of how we use pornography to suppress negative emotions like anxiety or boredom, which actually stores that stress in the brain for later. The Loneliness Connection: Why the current "loneliness epidemic" fuels addiction, as the brain tries to satisfy a need for human bonding with a digital substitute that cannot provide real connection. Roadmap to Recovery: Practical steps for quitting, including creating "barriers to entry," restricting use to specific time windows, and using anti-inflammatory diets to improve mood. Urge Surfing: A simple, 60-second technique to help you "ride out" a craving until it naturally fades away, rather than trying to fight it with willpower alone.HG Coaching : https://bit.ly/46bIkdo Dr. K's Guide to Mental Health: https://bit.ly/44z3SztHG Memberships : https://bit.ly/3TNoMVf Products & Services : https://bit.ly/44kz7x0 HealthyGamer.GG: https://bit.ly/3ZOopgQ Learn more about your ad choices.

Ever wish you could shift your whole mood in the time it takes to breathe twice? We share a simple, one‑minute practice designed for those edge moments—right after waking, before bed, ahead of meditation, or just before stepping into a tough conversation—when the mind spirals and the body tightens. Rather than force change, we start by noticing what's true: the climate of your thoughts, the texture of your breath, the tone of your body. That honest check‑in reduces reactivity and sets the stage for a kinder state.From there, we guide you to soften the breath, unhook from worried thinking, and orient to safety by remembering protections close at hand—friends, mentors, loving faces, the room you're in. This opens enough space to recognize a powerful fact: you're okay right now. With that foothold, we pivot into gratitude and contentment, calling up one or two things that spark real warmth. The shift isn't theoretical; it's felt as your shoulders drop and your chest eases.We then invite love into the mix. Bring to mind someone—or a pet—you care about, sense their appreciation for you, and notice your own warmth moving out to meet them. Finally, we weave peace, contentment, and love into one steady state, a homecoming you can carry. Two deeper breaths help these qualities sink in so you can walk through your day with a responsive mind instead of a reactive one. If you're ready to reclaim a minute and make it meaningful, press play, try the practice, and tell us how it changed the next hour.

LESSON 66My Happiness And My Function Are One.You have surely noticed an emphasis throughout our recent lessons on the connection between fulfilling your function and achieving happiness. This is because you do not really see the connection. Yet there is more than just a connection between them; they are the same. Their forms are different, but their content is completely one.The ego does constant battle with the Holy Spirit on the fundamental question of what your function is. So does it do constant battle with the Holy Spirit about what your happiness is. It is not a two-way battle. The ego attacks and the Holy Spirit does not respond. He knows what your function is. He knows that it is your happiness.Today we will try to go past this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the truth about your function. We will not engage in senseless arguments about what it is. We will not become hopelessly involved in defining happiness and determining the means for achieving it. We will not indulge the ego by listening to its attacks on truth. We will merely be glad that we can find out what truth is.Our longer practice period today has as its purpose your acceptance of the fact that not only is there a very real connection between the function God gave you and your happiness, but that they are actually identical. God gives you only happiness. Therefore, the function He gave you must be happiness, even if it appears to be different. Today's exercises are an attempt to go beyond these differences in appearance, and recognize a common content where it exists in truth.Begin the ten-to-fifteen-minute practice period by reviewing these thoughts:God gives me only happiness.He has given my function to me.Therefore my function must be happiness.Try to see the logic in this sequence, even if you do not yet accept the conclusion. It is only if the first two thoughts are wrong that the conclusion could be false. Let us, then, think about the premises for a while, as we are practicing.The first premise is that God gives you only happiness. This could be false, of course, but in order to be false it is necessary to define God as something He is not. Love cannot give evil, and what is not happiness is evil. God cannot give what He does not have, and He cannot have what He is not. Unless God gives you only happiness, He must be evil. And it is this definition of Him you are believing if you do not accept the first premise.The second premise is that God has given you your function. We have seen that there are only two parts of your mind. One is ruled by the ego, and is made up of illusions. The other is the home of the Holy Spirit, where truth abides. There are no other guides but these to choose between, and no other outcomes possible as a result of your choice but the fear that the ego always engenders, and the love that the Holy Spirit always offers to replace it.Thus, it must be that your function is established by God through His Voice, or is made by the ego which you have made to replace Him. Which is true? Unless God gave your function to you, it must be the gift of the ego. Does the ego really have gifts to give, being itself an illusion and offering only the illusion of gifts?Think about this during the longer practice period today. Think also about the many forms the illusion of your function has taken in your mind, and the many ways in which you tried to find salvation under the ego's guidance. Did you find it? Were you happy? Did they bring you peace? We need great honesty today. Remember the outcomes fairly, and consider also whether it was ever reasonable to expect happiness from anything the ego ever proposed. Yet the ego is the only alternative to the Holy Spirit's Voice.You will listen to madness or hear the truth. Try to make this choice as you think about the premises on which our conclusion rests. We can share in this conclusion, but in no other. For God Himself shares it with us. Today's idea is another giant stride in the perception of the same as the same, and the different as different. On one side stand all illusions. All truth stands on the other. Let us try today to realize that only the truth is true.In the shorter practice periods, which would be most helpful today if undertaken twice an hour, this form of the application is suggested:My happiness and function are one, because God has given me both.It will not take more than a minute, and probably less, to repeat these words slowly and think about them a little while as you say them.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

In our latest episode, we ask a different question about mental health: What if anxiety and depression are signals, not just diagnoses? I'm joined by Dr. Peter Bongiorno, naturopathic doctor and functional medicine expert specializing in integrative mental health, to explore how inflammation, nutrient status, mitochondrial function, and gut health shape mood and behavior. We move beyond symptom suppression and into root cause investigation. Why are so many patients still struggling despite conventional care? What role do inflammation and blood-brain barrier integrity play? How does the gut-brain axis influence anxiety and depression? And why is sleep non-negotiable for mitochondrial repair and emotional resilience? Dr. Bongiorno breaks down the biological drivers of mental health, from nutrient deficiencies and hormonal shifts to neuroinflammation and vagal tone. We also discuss why lifestyle interventions often need to come before supplementation, and how functional psychology integrates physiology with emotional well-being. If you want a deeper understanding of how to approach mental health through the lens of systems biology, this conversation delivers clarity, practicality, and a roadmap forward. Key takeaways: Natural Approaches to Mental Health: Discussing the growing traction of natural therapies, focusing on lifestyle, nutrition, and addressing biological imbalances. Nutrient Deficiencies and Mental Health: Exploring key nutrients such as vitamin D, B12, and magnesium, and their vital roles in neurotransmitter production and mood regulation. Importance of the Gut-Brain Axis: Highlighting how gut health impacts mental wellness through mechanisms involving microbiota and vagus nerve communication. Role of Sleep and Exercise: Addressing the essential contributions of restful sleep and physical activity to overall mental health, emphasizing the balance of mitochondrial function. Herbal and Supplementary Support: Assessing the effectiveness of supplements like St. John's Wort and saffron as supportive measures in managing depressive symptoms. More About Dr. Peter Bongiorno: Dr. Peter Bongiorno is on a mission to revolutionize psychiatric care by integrating effective holistic healing into mental health practice. Since 2004, his thriving practices in New York have transformed countless lives. A graduate of Bastyr University in Seattle, where he earned his naturopathic doctor degree in 2003 and served as class speaker, Dr. Bongiorno's journey began by researching as a pre-doctoral fellow at the National Institutes of Mental Health and Yale University's Department of Pharmacology. In 2008, Dr. Bongiorno authored the groundbreaking textbook Healing Depression published by CCNM Press – the first textbook on integrative medicine for depression, marking a significant milestone in the field. Since then, he has produced numerous influential papers, textbook chapters, and books, passionately educating the medical community on the most effective natural methods to heal mood disorders. His latest essential text, Holistic Solutions for Anxiety and Depression, is published by Norton. For the public, his books are Put Anxiety Behind You and How Come They're Happy and I'm Not?, which offer actionable insights into Dr. Bongiorno's effective methods for naturally overcoming anxiety and depression. His books have been translated into multiple languages, including Chinese and Italian.

What is a SuperAger and how do you become one? A SuperAger is someone over 80 with an excellent memory, particularly for everyday events and personal history. What we know about them: They produce twice as many young brain cells as people in their 30s and 40s New brain cells are more adaptable or plastic and can help rewire and repair the brain when needed Genetics do play a part, but so do lifestyle factors like a good diet, lowering your stress, and having good sleep patterns There are also some psychological tools you can adopt that help develop SuperAging: Developing an optimistic view of the world and people around you – if we break this down, optimistic people have the following pattern: When something bad happens, they are less likely to blame themselves and see the problem as temporary When something good happens, they are more likely to take credit for it, feel that it's partly in their control, and that good things are likely to continue It's not about pretending stress or bad things don't happen It is something you can train yourself to do – easy practical way of doing this is taking 15-20mins a week and think of your “Best Possible Self” in the future when you have achieved all your life goals and resolved all your problems. Be very specific about what this would look like and make sure to include how that would feel for you. Another way is “grace for atheists” where you spend time before the start of your evening meal deliberately bringing to mind and being thankful for several things that have occurred that day. Some days will be easier than others, but over time you can help train your brain to pay attention to these positive things. Your brain doesn't need any practice looking for negative things – it does this automatically! Regularly practising the Best Possible Self and grace for atheists exercises can help develop an optimistic mind-set, and increase your chances of being a SuperAger.

In 2021, Kyle found Dr. Benjamin Kosubevsky, who ran several tests that most other doctors overlook and discovered that the root cause was heavy metal toxicity and low testosterone.Addressing these issues changed everything, and sent him into a deep dive into detox, integrative health, and biohacking, which led him to earn multiple coaching certifications.Following this, Kyle left his family business, and he and Dr. Kosubevsky co-founded The Longevity Center to make advanced health treatments more accessible.

What if “being real” has become an excuse for being rude? In this episode, we explore the line between honesty and etiquette—and why manners are less about politeness and more about keeping relationships intact. Through stories about raising respectful kids, dressing for the role you want, and meeting a partner's parents with grace, we unpack the difference between niceness and kindness.We also look at the small gestures that build connection—offering a drink at the door, making one thoughtful effort when hosting, or sending a handwritten thank-you note.
This episode is brought to you by Cozy Earth, makers of luxuriously soft bamboo sheets, blankets, and sleep essentials. Because your rest matters, mamas. Cozy Earth makes it easier to get the cozy, breathable sleep your body (and your little one) deserve. Use code HEHE at https://cozyearth.com/ for 20% off your order and treat yourself to the sleep you've been dreaming of. In this episode, HeHe sits down with Dr. Kristin Lasseter to unpack perinatal mental health with a focus on postpartum anxiety (PPA) versus postpartum depression (PPD), how they differ, and when “baby blues” may signal something more. While mood shifts are common in the early postpartum days, symptoms that persist beyond a couple of weeks, disrupt sleep, bring constant anxiety or sadness, intrusive thoughts, or thoughts of death deserve real support. They talk candidly about the guilt, shame, and fear of judgment that keep many women silent, and why telling one safe person can be a powerful first step. The conversation explores common risk factors like fertility struggles, pregnancy or birth complications, and PMDD, along with the significant hormonal shift that happens after the placenta is delivered and why the brain can feel especially vulnerable during that window. HeHe and Dr. Lasseter also navigate the often-stigmatized topic of psychiatric medication during pregnancy and postpartum. They discuss why abruptly stopping medication is usually unsafe, how to thoughtfully weigh medication risks against the risks of untreated mental illness, what research tells us about breastfeeding compatibility, and what to expect when starting or adjusting treatment. They touch on newer, faster-acting postpartum depression options, therapy modalities like CBT and EMDR, and additional treatments such as TMS and ECT. The episode closes with an honest conversation about bounce-back culture, social media pressure, and choosing support systems that protect a mother's mental health. Throughout, the message is clear: evidence-based care matters, suffering in silence isn't a badge of honor, and there is no shame in using medication when it's needed. 0:00 - Introduction: Mental Health Medications in Pregnancy & Postpartum 4:36 - Postpartum Anxiety vs Postpartum Depression: Key Differences 6:01 - Normal Baby Blues vs Red Flags: When to Seek Help 9:51 - Intrusive Thoughts & Breaking the Stigma 17:26 - Medication Safety in Pregnancy: What You Need to Know 24:43 - Should You Stop Your Meds When Pregnant? 30:03 - Hormones & Mental Health: The Postpartum Crash 43:56 - Breastfeeding While on Psychiatric Medications 51:26 - How Long Should You Stay on Medication? 60:50 - Fighting the "Bounce Back" Culture & Social Media's Impact Guest Bio: Kristin Yeung Lasseter, MD is a Board-Certified Psychiatrist in Texas who specializes in Reproductive Psychiatry and Women's Mental Health.

The episode centers on a structural governance gap within the managed services industry as it attempts to address mental health using relationship-driven models typical of event and community management. This approach is exemplified by the launch of MSPWell, a not-for-profit mental wellness initiative incorporated in Ontario, Canada, targeting participants in the IT channel. The initiative operates as a live community—particularly via Discord—without formalized clinical oversight or published operational guardrails such as moderation standards, crisis escalation protocols, or sponsor influence controls. Evidence for an urgent governance concern is provided by industry data and operational decisions. According to MSPWell, burnout affects significant percentages of the workforce—citing an 82% burnout risk from a Mercer report and 66% from separate research. Despite the recurrence of staffing challenges in the MSP industry, MSPWell's infrastructure is underway with participation at industry events and vendor sponsorship, but formal governance documentation remains incomplete. The initiative explicitly confirms the absence of licensed mental health professionals in published leadership or advisory roles, positioning its support as peer-led. Supporting developments highlight how rapid community launch and sponsor-driven funding amplify risks when core protections are missing. Early coverage focused on recognizable names and event presence, while Dave Sobel emphasizes that, in mental health-adjacent contexts, moderation, privacy, and escalation protocols are not only differentiators but essential safeguards. At present, MSPWell's Discord community operates without visible guidelines or documented procedures, which exposes participants to predictable failure modes such as oversharing, privacy breaches, and harmful peer advice. Operationally, MSPs and IT service providers face heightened liability when participating in or supporting such initiatives without robust controls. Dave Sobel advises operators to request moderation, crisis, and data retention policies before endorsing participation, to treat involvement as networking rather than clinical support, and to monitor for the integration of licensed professionals into governance. The absence of enforceable governance exposes both individuals and sponsoring vendors to reputational and legal risk, and sets problematic precedent for future wellness platforms in the industry. 00:00 MSPWell Builds Mental-Health Platform on Sponsor-Funded Community Model 03:21 Guardrails, Guidelines, and Moderation 06:15 The Consequences 08:09 Why Do We Care? & What to Consider Supported by: TimeZest
Mike is joined virtually by Jeremy Lelek to preview his Call to Council conference track on biblically unpacking mental health diagnoses. Jeremy explains the objective of engaging intimidating DSM categories by describing them from a psychiatric perspective while bringing Scripture to bear on what to do and how to interpret struggles through a biblical anthropology that includes spiritual realities without ignoring physiological and empirical data. The track will cover PTSD, borderline personality disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, OCD and scrupulosity, and bipolar disorder, with sessions led by Beth Claes, Dr. Nate Brooks, and Dr. Matthew Lapine. They aim to equip licensed professionals, pastors, and laypeople with practical tools and confidence that God's Word speaks comprehensively to these issues.00:00 Podcast Welcome00:21 Meet Jeremy Lelek00:43 Track Overview02:06 DSM and Scripture03:28 Diagnoses Covered04:20 Track Team Spotlight07:41 Why This Matters08:21 Church Lens on Labels09:46 Biblical Anthropology10:59 Who Should Attend12:32 Final InvitationEpisode MentionsRegister for the Mental Health Track

Many men struggle silently with grief, loneliness, identity loss, and moral injury. Social expectations often teach men to stay strong, stay productive, and stay quiet about pain.In this episode of Hope Illuminated, I speak with meaning-centered psychotherapist and logotherapist Baruch HaLevi (“Dr. B”) about how men's groups help men transform suffering into purpose, connection, and resilience.Drawing from Viktor Frankl's logotherapy, lived experience with suicide loss, and years of guiding men's peer groups, Dr. B explains how meaning helps men move through life's darkest chapters.

Weight stigma affects far more than body size. It shapes healthcare, mental health treatment, and eating disorder recovery for people across all bodies. In this solo episode, eating disorder therapist Dr. Marianne Miller, LMFT, examines how anti-fat bias operates inside medical systems, mental health care, and everyday cultural messages about bodies. Weight stigma does not only harm people in larger bodies. It distorts how clinicians diagnose illness, how providers respond to symptoms, and how individuals relate to food, movement, and self-worth. People in larger bodies often face delayed diagnosis, dismissal of medical concerns, and barriers to eating disorder treatment. At the same time, people in smaller bodies frequently receive praise for behaviors that signal medical or psychological danger, which can hide eating disorders and delay care. In this episode, Dr. Marianne explores how weight stigma disrupts physical health, fuels disordered eating, and complicates recovery. Anti-fat bias increases stress, discourages people from seeking medical care, and encourages shame-based approaches to health. These pressures influence people across body sizes. They can lead individuals to distrust hunger cues, suppress bodily needs, and feel that their worth depends on body size. This conversation also explores how weight stigma interacts with other systems of oppression. Racism, ableism, gender bias, and class inequality can amplify weight-based discrimination in healthcare and mental health settings. When these systems overlap, people often experience greater barriers to accurate diagnosis, compassionate treatment, and sustainable eating disorder recovery. Dr. Marianne also discusses how a liberation-centered approach to treatment can support healing. Recovery becomes more possible when clinicians prioritize autonomy, body respect, and nervous system safety rather than weight control. Challenging anti-fat bias allows providers to offer more accurate care and helps clients rebuild trust with their bodies. If you have ever wondered why eating disorder recovery can feel harder in a culture obsessed with body size, this episode offers an important perspective. Addressing weight stigma creates space for more compassionate healthcare, more effective mental health treatment, and more accessible eating disorder recovery for people in every body.

Dr. Marianne Miller is a licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in eating disorder recovery, including ARFID, binge eating disorder, anorexia, and bulimia. Her work centers neurodivergent-affirming care, body liberation, sensory attunement, and trauma-informed treatment that supports long-term healing.

LESSON 65My Only Function Is The One God Gave Me.The idea for today reaffirms your commitment to salvation. It also reminds you that you have no function other than that. Both these thoughts are obviously necessary for a total commitment. Salvation cannot be the only purpose you hold while you still cherish others. The full acceptance of salvation as your only function necessarily entails two phases; the recognition of salvation as your function, and the relinquishment of all the other goals you have invented for yourself.This is the only way in which you can take your rightful place among the saviors of the world. This is the only way in which you can say and mean, “My only function is the one God gave me.” This is the only way in which you can find peace of mind.Today, and for a number of days to follow, set aside ten to fifteen minutes for a more sustained practice period, in which you try to understand and accept what the idea for the day really means. Today's idea offers you escape from all your perceived difficulties. It places the key to the door of peace, which you have closed upon yourself, in your own hands. It gives you the answer to all the searching you have done since time began.Try, if possible, to undertake the daily extended practice periods at approximately the same time each day. Try, also, to determine this time in advance, and then adhere to it as closely as possible. The purpose of this is to arrange your day so that you have set apart the time for God, as well as for all the trivial purposes and goals you will pursue. This is part of the long-range disciplinary training your mind needs, so that the Holy Spirit can use it consistently for the purpose He shares with you.For the longer practice period, begin by reviewing the idea for the day. Then close your eyes, repeat the idea to yourself once again, and watch your mind carefully to catch whatever thoughts cross it. At first, make no attempt to concentrate only on thoughts related to the idea for the day. Rather, try to uncover each thought that arises to interfere with it. Note each one as it comes to you, with as little involvement or concern as possible, dismissing each one by telling yourself:This thought reflects a goal that is preventing me from accepting my only function.After a while, interfering thoughts will become harder to find. Try, however, to continue a minute or so longer, attempting to catch a few of the idle thoughts that escaped your attention before, but do not strain or make undue effort in doing this. Then tell yourself:On this clean slate let my true function be written for me.You need not use these exact words, but try to get the sense of being willing to have your illusions of purpose be replaced by truth.Finally, repeat the idea for today once more, and devote the rest of the practice period to trying to focus on its importance to you, the relief its acceptance will bring you by resolving your conflicts once and for all, and the extent to which you really want salvation in spite of your own foolish ideas to the contrary.In the shorter practice periods, which should be undertaken at least once an hour, use this form in applying today's idea:My only function is the one God gave me.I want no other and I have no other.Sometimes close your eyes as you practice this, and sometimes keep them open and look about you. It is what you see now that will be totally changed when you accept today's idea completely.- Jesus Christ in ACIM
So You Can Help: What to Do When Someone Is Struggling On this episode of the Make Mental Health Matter Show host Kelli Melissa Reinhardt talks about how much people are struggling and why the pages on the Make Mental Health Matter website for non-crisis, crisis, after an attempt and after a suicide are so valuable. Little bit about Kelli's story from her: I lost my middle sister, who died by suicide on February 20, 2017. I know this time of the year has a high rate of deaths, so I want to give you information to feel confident that you can help someone that might be struggling. I didn't know how to help my sister before she passed and I didn't know how to help myself after she died. Through lots of education, lots of certifications and doing many, many workshops with some of the top professionals in the field I have learned so much about how the brain works, and how to help others. So that is what I give back to the community and hope that this information helps you too.

Father Chad Ripperger is a Roman Catholic priest, theologian, philosopher, and exorcist serving in the Archdiocese of Denver. He is the founder and superior general of the Society of the Most Sorrowful Mother (Doloran Fathers), a religious community dedicated to spiritual warfare, deliverance ministry, and the traditional liturgy. Born in Casper, Wyoming, and raised in a devout Catholic family as the youngest of six children, Father Ripperger was ordained in 1997 with the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP). In 2012, he established the Doloran Fathers, serving as exorcist for the Diocese of Tulsa from 2012 to 2016 before moving to the Denver Archdiocese, where he continues his ministry. Bound by the discipline of clerical celibacy in the Latin Rite, he frequently teaches on marriage, family, virtue, and the spiritual life. A classically trained Thomist, Father Ripperger holds degrees in theology and philosophy from the University of San Francisco, master's degrees from both the University of St. Thomas and Holy Apostles College, and a doctorate in philosophy from the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross in Rome. His scholarship and experience make him a respected authority on demonology, angelology, spiritual warfare, and the integration of theological principles with psychology. Through Sensus Traditionis Press, he has authored several influential works, including Deliverance Prayers for Use by the Laity, Dominion, and Introduction to the Science of Mental Health. Known for his clear, no‑nonsense teaching style rooted in Thomistic philosophy and Church tradition, Father Ripperger continues to give talks, conferences, and guidance on prayer, virtue, the sacraments, and protection from spiritual evil.

The word “trauma” is used so widely at present, arguably too widely. But it bespeaks a tenor of our shared reality. This episode is a journey inside what I've come to see as a parallel universe unfolding, where our species is unlocking knowledge about ourselves and capacities for radical healing of the most extreme trauma and distress. These findings are even giving rise to dramatic healing alliances across political and social lines that are inflamed in the culture at large. At universities and research laboratories around the U.S. and world, there are countless clinical studies, yielding results it's hard not at times to call miraculous — for complex PTSD, long-term addiction, treatment-resistant depression. What I'm talking about are therapeutically-administered treatments with plant medicines and chemical compounds we call psychedelic or empathogenic. Use those words, and many of us — including me until not that long ago — might become wary. Like all forces of great power, these can cut in every direction — the dark and the light of the human condition. But the conversation you are about to hear, with one of the leading neuroscientists in this field, revolves around serious, important research in settings designed for careful, beneficial human effect. Gül Dölen's groundbreaking contribution to all of us is in her fascinating insight into what psychedelically-assisted therapies are revealing about the workings of the human brain and the brain's capacity to change and the human capacity for major transformation altogether. The potential consequences of this science are intimate and civilizational at once. I see them as a stunning ray of hope in a struggling world.

Dr. Barbara Paldus is the Founder and CEO of CODEX Labs, the sponsor of this episode.She grew up around Nobel Prize winners, built biotech manufacturing equipment for vaccines and cancer therapeutics, and then sold her company after an 8 year old threatened suicide.Her son's severe eczema pushed her into an unregulated $100,000,000,000 skincare market where parents are told to trust labels that nobody verifies. She explains how corticosteroid ladders leave patients with years long withdrawal, why U.S. ingredient oversight lags Europe, and how chemotherapy destroys the same skin and gut barriers seen in inflammatory disease.The conversation tracks the real stakes behind “clean” marketing: a child's immune system, hospital infections like MRSA, and patients trying to survive treatment without new damage. She also details the research path from Irish medical manuscripts to microbiome science and why sick populations become the only reliable regulators when policy fails.RELATED LINKSBarbara PaldusCodex LabsSekhmet VenturesDr Peter LioFEEDBACKLike this episode?
