Despite major advances in our understanding of the biology of mental health disorders,  there's no blood test or brain scan that will confirm if you have depression, anxiety, PTSD, or any other psychiatric illness.  And yet, the American Psychiatric Association recently announced that it will be including biomarkers for mental conditions in the next edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), which guides diagnosis and treatment of mental illness. So how close are we to pinpointing the biological markers of mental illness, and what does that mean for diagnosis? It's complicated.  Host Flora Lichtman untangles some of this science with psychiatry researcher John Krystal. Guest: Dr. John Krystal is a professor of psychiatry, neuroscience, and psychology at the Yale School of Medicine. Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

You might remember Alexandra Paul as one of the stars of Baywatch or the Tom Hanks-Dan Aykroyd Dragnet film. You may not have realized that as a child and on to her long trip through the worlds of modeling and Hollywood, she was bingeing and purging and dealing with severe eating disorders. She tells us about her relationship with sugar and what food meant emotionally. Then we're joined by Dr. Cynthia Bulik, one of the top experts on eating disorders in the world today, to talk about remarkable progress in understanding the genetic components of eating disorders. Rather than blame family (especially mothers), peer pressure, or fashion culture, Dr. Bulik says some people are much more prone to developing eating disorders due to the genes they happened to get.

Nobody warns you about the quiet heartbreak of friendship after motherhood — how the texts slow down, the invites change, and suddenly you feel like you live on a different planet than your friends without kids.In this episode, Sarah and Whitney unpack the friendship shift that happens when life milestones stop lining up — whether you're the first to have babies, the last, or just in a different season. They talk about how to grieve what was, nurture what still fits, and find new connection in the middle of it all.

In this episode, Dr. K provides a deep-dive lecture into Attachment Theory, moving beyond individual psychology to explore how our internal "wiring" creates the specific dynamics of our romantic relationships. He breaks down why we are often attracted to the very people who trigger our deepest insecurities and provides a scientific roadmap for healing your attachment style. What to expect in this episode: • The Three Major Styles: A breakdown of why 50% of people are Secure, while the rest fall into Anxious (fear of abandonment) or Avoidant (fear of closeness) patterns rooted in childhood experiences. • The "Match Made in Hell": An analysis of the magnetic attraction between anxious and avoidant individuals, creating a cycle where one person chases while the other retreats. • The Six Types of Love: How ancient Greek concepts like Ludus (game-playing) and Mania (obsessive) perfectly describe the modern behaviors of avoidant and anxious partners. • Protest Behaviors and Mixed Signals: A look at the "chameleon" effect in anxious individuals and the "devaluing" strategies avoidants use to keep people at arm's length. • The Path to Security: Practical tools for moving toward a Secure Attachment, including the development of mentalization (understanding your partner's mind) and inter-subjectivity (blending lives without losing your identity).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.

Meltdowns and mood swings aren't random—they're signals from a stressed nervous system. This episode reveals 5 hidden ways your child's meltdowns and mood swings connect to mental health struggles, often long before a diagnosis. Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, creator of Regulation First Parenting™, brings decades of expertise in childhood emotional dysregulation to guide parents with clarity and hope.Parenting a child with intense reactions can feel exhausting and isolating. You're not alone. Many parents see frequent meltdowns, sudden mood swings, or resistance to change and worry, “Am I missing something?” These behaviors aren't just “bad days”—they're signals your child's brain is struggling to regulate.In this episode, I share five predictive nervous system signals I've identified over decades of working with thousands of children. You'll learn how to recognize early warning signs of mental health challenges, support regulation, and change your child's trajectory—long before labels or diagnoses appear.Why does my child have frequent meltdowns after small frustrations?Low frustration tolerance is one of the clearest early indicators of mental health concerns and challenges in a child's mental health. Children who overreact to minor setbacks often struggle to pause, reflect, and problem solve under stress.Key takeaways:Explosive reactions aren't misbehavior—they indicate a dysregulated nervous system.Recovery matters: kids who struggle to calm down are at risk for anxiety, impulsivity, and emotional volatility.Parent example: A 7-year-old melts down every time homework is hard. After co-regulation exercises and consistent scaffolding, these outbursts gradually lessen.How do restrictive eating habits signal mental health struggles?Children who resist textures, smells, or new foods may have a nervous system stuck in stress mode, experiencing the world as unsafe. This can affect a child's sleep patterns, emotional regulation, and even academic performance.Tips for parents:Observe patterns in eating—they can reflect underlying distress, not just picky behavior.Work with occupational therapists for sensory support.Ensure nutritional balance to support emotional health and overall well being.

Jesse James LeijaTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know San Antonio's very own Jesse James Leija. Jesse is a 2-time world champion boxer; having won the WBC belt in 1994 and the IBA belt in 1998. In this episode, we chat about growing up in San Antonio, and the series of events that led him to become a fighter. We also dive into a couple of his fights; especially his 4-fight series against Azuma Nelson. The Champ explains the difference between being a 'tough' fighter, and a 'smart' fighter, and then we jump into why his father was his trainer for Jesse's entire career. Along the way, Jesse James shares stories of hanging out with Sylvester Stallone, and even how he managed to sneak his way into a meeting with Muhammad Ali himself! I ask him about some of his other fights with Sugar Shane Mosely, Louie Espinoza, Arturo Gatti, and Oscar De La Hoya; before we trade opinions on the new spectacle of "boxing" involving Jake Paul, and what that is doing to the sport of boxing. Jesse James Leija is an advocate for mental health, started The Miracle League of San Antonio, owns Leija Boxing and Fitness gym, has the longest running charity golf tournament in San Antonio, and even started his own charitable foundation called The Leija Family Foundation. We touch on ALL of these things and more! Jesse James Leija has been a fixture in the city and is a name I have known for as far back as I can remember. It was an honor to speak with such a fantastic steward of my hometown. THIS IS EPISODE #500! THANK YOU, STREETWALKERS!!

Gone Guys explores a “quiet crisis” in our communities, hidden in plain sight: the increasing disengagement and isolation of boys and young men. Set in rural Vermont, this documentary brings national data to life highlighting the struggles faced by boys and young men and sets the stage for a meaningful conversation. Over the past fifty years, boys and young men have steadily disengaged from school, work, and broader society. They're falling behind academically, struggling with loneliness and isolation, and facing rising rates of substance abuse and suicide.This 45-minute documentary draws on the influential work of Richard V. Reeves' “Of Boys and Men”, illuminating these challenges through powerful data and compelling personal stories. Many of us have experienced these issues first-hand, but it can be difficult to talk about them. It's not an either-or choice: caring more about boys and men does not mean caring less about women and girls.The film brings national data to life with engaging animation accompanying lived experience featuring young men, educators, mentors, and trailblazing programs that are working to re-engage boys and young men in their communities and reshape their futures.Website: goneguysfilm.com Support the show

With the recent passing of Rev. JesseJackson, many have been concerned at the lack of celebration and respect being shown by the current administration, including lack of official direction to fly flags at half-mast, and Mike Johnson's flat refusal to consider Jackson's potential for interment in the Capital Rotunda.  Lack of respect or outright erasure of civil rights can contribute to advocacy burnout, or stress from the current political climate. Along with many other forms of action, openly celebrating causes or individuals is a form of self-care. Today I want to share a brief story about Jackson's skill as a diplomat and negotiator, and how he used these talents to successfully aid in the release of hostages on the international stage.  Please go check out www.lavenderproject.org, our highlighted nonprofit for this month, to support this wonderful organization helping Black Trans Americans.

#213 - Growth doesn't arrive with a trophy. It often shows up as friction, confusion, and the stubborn urge to fix other people. With therapist Casey Stevens, we explore why discomfort is the doorway to becoming, how the subconscious scripts our choices, and what changes when you stop rescuing and start taking radical responsibility for your life. Casey shares her own turning points—early marriage, a crisis that led her to therapy, the heartbreak of loss, and the identity collapse that followed—and how those crucibles reshaped her work and worldview.We dig into the mechanics of the subconscious and why so much of who we are is formed before age seven. Casey breaks down how to reverse inherited programming by elevating lowercase-c awareness into capital-C Consciousness: clarifying values, ranking them in a true hierarchy, and living in alignment so anxiety and indecision lose their grip. She also names a trap many of us fall into—the rescuer pattern on the drama triangle—and offers a better path built on consent, dignity, and self-governance rather than control.What might sound like opposites—science and spirituality—become complementary tools in Casey's practice. Neuroscience explains patterns and plasticity; spirituality restores meaning, faith, and intuition. We talk about rebuilding trust with yourself after early fractures, listening for the quiet signal beneath fear, and transforming post-traumatic stress into post-traumatic growth. Pain becomes a teacher, not a life sentence. Comfort maintains; discomfort transforms. If you're craving practical, compassionate guidance to move from autopilot to agency, this conversation will meet you where you are and invite you forward.If this resonates, connect with Casey at shrinkbigger.com and on Instagram @shrinkbigger.

Episode 267 How We Learn From OthersSensers! I believe there's so many people that we meet in life as well as so many cultures and customs we come across.  I also believe the various cutlures provide many ways for us to learn from the differences in which we come from in families and other forms of social groups.  Ask yourself, what's something that you've learned from other cultures outside of your own?“If you can change one thing, then you change everything”, I believe most of us have heard this when it comes to things we would change about our past. However, looking back at how our lives went, what is something that you would have actually changed?  There's much ground to go over in our minds when it comes to that, but what would you do?Expressing yourself in a perfect world seems so simple to accomplish, but in reality we all have dealt with the fears that our own worlds have put on us causing us to not say what we actually feel for fear of rejection or possibly that we might just get what we ask for emotionally.  Telling how you feel to someone who feels they don't deserve love causing them to retort to old habits of chasing what does not love them.  Confusing and frustrating one can be from experiencing such, but that's humans in short. Let's talk about vulnerability.May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this. If you dig the episode, click, like, and share on your page.

Send a textIn this conversation with Matt Domyancic, we discuss the critical aspects of law enforcement and the role of chaplaincy in supporting officers' mental health and wellness. We explore the importance of self-care, the challenges faced by first responders, and the need for a proactive approach to mental health. Matt shares his experiences and insights on building trust within the law enforcement community, the significance of spirituality, and the necessity of addressing mental health before crises occur. The discussion emphasizes the importance of investing in oneself and the role of chaplains in providing support and understanding to officers. Takeaways:Self-care is essential for first responders.Mental health awareness should be proactive, not reactive.Building trust takes time and consistent effort.Spirituality can play a significant role in resilience.Pain that is not transformed is transmitted to others.Investing in oneself is crucial for long-term wellness.Creating rapport is key to effective chaplaincy.Tactical Chaplain Matt Domyancicwww.tacticalchaplain.comIG: @thetacticalchaplainin: @Matt DomyancicSupport the showCritical Aspects Website IG: @critical_aspectsIG: @pastorvernin: @Dr. Vernon Phillips

We start by discussing what mental health is, when are experiences symptoms, and what “normal” is. We talk about why there are so many more people receiving mental disorder diagnoses. We discuss the impact of neoliberal capitalism and politics on people's lives. Finally, we talk about the future of psychiatry.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Good morning, good morning!  Welcome back to The Monday Morning Brew Series, where we sip something warm, shake off the weekend fog, and set the tone for a week that feels good in your body and your brain. I'm Luis, and today we're talking about something that might surprise you…Movement, but not the “exercise” kind.Not the gym membership.Not the perfect routine.Not the “I'll start Monday” pressure.I'm talking about fun movement.The kind you don't track.The kind you don't judge.The kind you don't overthink.And here's the twist, that kind of movement is incredible for your cognitive health.So grab your coffee, settle in, and let's brew something good together.SEGMENT 1: WHY “EXERCISE” FEELS HEAVYLet's be honest, the word “exercise” carries a lot of baggage.For many people, it brings up:• Pressure• Comparison• Sometimes that Old gym‑class trauma• The feeling of “I'm not doing enough”• Or just… boredomBut movement?Movement is different. Movement is human. Movement is natural. Movement is joyful.When we take away the rules, the reps, the calorie counting, and the pressure, movement becomes something we want to do, not something we feel guilty about avoiding and here's the cool part:Your brain doesn't care whether you're doing a structured workout or dancing in your kitchen. It just loves that you're moving.SEGMENT 2: HOW FUN MOVEMENT BOOSTS YOUR BRAINLet's talk cognitive health but in a simple, real‑life way.When you move your body, even lightly, your brain gets:• Increased blood flow• More oxygen• A boost in neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin• Better communication between brain regions• Improved memory and focusAnd here's the kicker, fun movement actually lights up more areas of the brain than forced exercise.Why you ask? Because when you're enjoying yourself, your brain releases reward chemicals that make learning, creativity, and problem‑solving easier. So yes, dancing while you make breakfast That's brain health. Walking your dog while listening to music? Brain health. Cleaning your house with a little extra groove? YOUUU GUESSED IT! Brain health. Your brain doesn't need a treadmill.It just needs you to move.SEGMENT 3: WHAT COUNTS AS “FUN MOVEMENT”?Let's break this down, because fun movement is way more accessible than people think.Here are some examples:• Dancing in your living room• Walking with a friend• Playing with your kids or pets• Stretching while watching TV• Gardening• Roller skating / Bike riding• Swimming• Doing a silly TikTok dance• Cleaning with music• Chair dancing at your desk• A mini dance break between tasksIf it gets your body moving and your mood lifted, it counts, and the best part? You don't need to be good at it. You don't need to look a certain way doing it. You don't need to track it or measure it. Just move because it feels good.SEGMENT 4: THE MINDSET SHIFTHere's the mindset shift I want you to take into this week: “Movement is a gift, not a punishment.”You're not moving to earn food. You're not moving to fix your body. You're not moving to meet someone else's standard. You're moving because:• It boosts your mood• It clears your mind• It reduces stress• It helps you think better• It makes you feel aliveWhen you remove the pressure, movement becomes something you look forward to not something you avoid.SEGMENT 5: A 60‑SECOND GUIDED MOMENTLet's take a quick moment together. Wherever you are... sitting, standing, sipping your coffee... I want you to roll your shoulders back. Take a breath. Wiggle your fingers. Wiggle your toes. Maybe sway a little side to side. That's movement. That's presence. That's you reconnecting with your body. And your brain loves it.SEGMENT 6: THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: “Move for Joy” Alright, here's your Monday Morning Brew challenge for the week.THE CHALLENGE: “Move for Joy"Every day this week, I want you to do 5 minutes of fun movement.Not exercise. Not a workout. Just movement that feels good.Here are some ideas:• Dance to one song• Walk around the block• Stretch in bed• Do a silly wiggle break• Play with your pet• March in place while your coffee brewsFive minutes. No rules. No pressure. Just joy. And if you want to level up, share your favorite fun movement moment with someone. Spread the energy.As you head into your Monday, remember this... Movement doesn't have to be serious to be meaningful. It doesn't have to be structured to be beneficial. It doesn't have to be perfect to count.Your brain loves when you move. Your mood loves when you move. Your future self loves when you move. So this week, move because it feels good. Move because it brings you joy. Move because it helps you think clearer, breathe deeper, and show up as the best version of yourself.This is Luis, and you've been listening to The Monday Morning Brew. Go make today a good one and don't forget to dance a little.If this episode helped you, share it with someone who's working on their health and may feel a bit overwhelmed on where to start.  As always, be a kind human, let's continue to help, to lift each-other up whenever possible... and when it seems really tough, look for the helpers, and do your part as well, make sure that when someone looks for the Helpers, they see YOU, that way You can contribute as well and be the change you want to see in the world...thank you, thank you for sharing this time to listen to us and we will see you again soon, have a great rest of your day!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/fittalk-with-coach-luis--3261827/support.TEAM LTP:My IG: @livetoprogressVoice-over credits

She breaks down what recovery actually looked like and the physical milestones that mattered most.Mental Health Improvements After Weight Loss Surgery: One of the most significant aspects of Taylor's journey was the dramatic reduction in anxiety and depression symptoms post-surgery. She shares how her mental clarity improved and why the psychological benefits were just as important as the physical changes.The Importance of Personal Choice in Bariatric Surgery: Taylor emphasizes that the decision to undergo weight loss surgery must be entirely personal. She discusses how to navigate pressure from family members, set healthy boundaries around weight discussions, and advocate for yourself throughout the process.Mindful Eating and Body Awareness Post-Op: Learn how Taylor developed new relationships with food and hunger cues after surgery. She shares practical strategies for mindful eating, recognizing fullness signals, and adjusting to her body's new needs and limitations.Non-Scale Victories and Redefining Success: Beyond weight loss numbers, Taylor celebrates the smaller wins that transformed her daily life - from increased energy levels to improved mobility to newfound confidence in social situations. These victories became the foundation of her sustainable transformation.Setting Boundaries with Loved Ones: Taylor provides honest advice about communicating needs to family and friends, especially when it comes to unsolicited weight loss advice or commentary. She discusses how setting clear boundaries protected her mental health during a vulnerable time.Strength Training and Physical Activity Post-Surgery: Discover how Taylor incorporated strength training into her routine and why building muscle became a priority.

LESSON 54Review of Lessons 16 - 20These are the review ideas for today:(16) I have no neutral thoughts. Neutral thoughts are impossible because all thoughts have power. They will either make a false world or lead me to the real one. But thoughts cannot be without effects. As the world I see arises from my thinking errors, so will the real world rise before my eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My thoughts cannot be neither true nor false. They must be one or the other. What I see shows me which they are.(17) I see no neutral things. What I see witnesses to what I think. If I did not think I would not exist, because life is thought. Let me look on the world I see as the representation of my own state of mind. I know that my state of mind can change. And so I also know the world I see can change as well.(18) I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my seeing. If I have no private thoughts, I cannot see a private world. Even the mad idea of separation had to be shared before it could form the basis of the world I see. Yet that sharing was a sharing of nothing. I can also call upon my real thoughts, which share everything with everyone. As my thoughts of separation call to the separation thoughts of others, so my real thoughts awaken the real thoughts in them. And the world my real thoughts show me will dawn on their sight as well as mine.(19) I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my thoughts. I am alone in nothing. Everything I think or say or do teaches all the universe. A Son of God cannot think or speak or act in vain. He cannot be alone in anything. It is therefore in my power to change every mind along with mine, for mine is the power of God.(20) I am determined to see. Recognizing the shared nature of my thoughts, I am determined to see. I would look upon the witnesses that show me the thinking of the world has been changed. I would behold the proof that what has been done through me has enabled love to replace fear, laughter to replace tears, and abundance to replace loss. I would look upon the real world, and let it teach me that my will and the Will of God are one.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

In episode 113, we sit down with occupational health researcher Dr. Annabelle Neal, Senior Lecturer in Mental Health and Wellbeing and Director of the Flinders Workplace Wellbeing Lab in Australia, to explore a critical and often misunderstood question: Why do so few workers report sexual harassment, even when it's widespread and well‑recognized?Drawing on surveys of Australian workers and in‑depth interviews with victims, witnesses, and subject‑matter experts, Dr. Neal's research uncovers the three internal hurdles people navigate before deciding whether to report:* Does this “count” as sexual harassment?* Is it worth the personal and professional risk?* Will reporting actually change anything?We discuss how formal reporting systems often unintentionally discourage victims, how fear of retaliation shapes silence, and why many workers lose trust in HR‑driven processes. This conversation offers a rare, deeply human look at the barriers workers face and how we can build safer, more supportive workplaces.You can find Dr. Neal here: https://www.flindersworkplacewellbeinglab.com/teamYou can find the paper we discuss here: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/02678373.2025.2607500 This is a public episode.

"   The foundation of my testimony was the doctrine of the church is right. The way we understand the plan of salvation and eternal progression and all of the things that make us different from mainstream Christianity, I knew to be true based on my reading of the scriptures and praying about it. I was really given a strong testimony of it. And because of that it was like all of the messy history, all the things that the anti-Mormons love to use to sow doubt and stuff, that was all downstream from that. It was like, well, none of that changes that the doctrine is what my testimony is, and I believe the doctrine is true."00:00 Terrifying Night05:41 Meet Kelsey06:16 Leaving the Church at 1211:22 New Age Deep Dive to Breaking Point26:42 Love Rekindled: Seeing Your Spouse with New Eyes28:22 Calling on Jesus & the Reality of Spiritual Warfare38:00 Testimony of Doctrine, Temple Endowment, and Family Support46:06 New Age as a Counterfeit: Stay Focused on Christ Memor Jewelry code COMEBACK for 10% offhttps://memorjewelry.com/Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% offhttps://serveclothing.com/If you have a story to share please fill out the form: https://form.jotform.com/233109071625046For inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.comCome Back Team:Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly StoneEditor: Cara ReedOutreach Manager: Jenna CarlsonAssistant Editor: Britt SmallzeArt Director: Jeremy GarciaProduction Director: Trent Wardwell

A major legal battle is putting social media companies under intense scrutiny as parents, experts, and lawmakers question whether algorithm-driven platforms are harming children's mental health.With whistleblowers raising concerns and Mark Zuckerberg facing accountability, the debate centers on whether platforms like Meta Platforms and YouTube prioritize engagement over safety.Are these platforms designed to be addictive? Should tech companies face product liability? Or should parents bear responsibility for monitoring usage?This discussion explores: • The impact of social media on youth mental health • Algorithm influence and exposure to harmful content • Parental responsibility vs. corporate accountability • Comparisons to tobacco and age-restricted products • Potential legal and policy consequencesAs lawsuits unfold, the outcome could reshape online safety standards and redefine accountability in the digital age.

LESSON 53Review of Lessons 11 - 15Today we will review the following:(11) My meaningless thoughts are showing me a meaningless world. Since the thoughts of which I am aware do not mean anything, the world that pictures them can have no meaning. What is producing this world is insane, and so is what it produces. Reality is not insane, and I have real thoughts as well as insane ones. I can therefore see a real world, if I look to my real thoughts as my guide for seeing.(12) I am upset because I see a meaningless world. Insane thoughts are upsetting. They produce a world in which there is no order anywhere. Only chaos rules a world that represents chaotic thinking, and chaos has no laws. I cannot live in peace in such a world. I am grateful that this world is not real, and that I need not see it at all unless I choose to value it. And I do not choose to value what is totally insane and has no meaning.(13) A meaningless world engenders fear. The totally insane engenders fear because it is completely undependable, and offers no grounds for trust. Nothing in madness is dependable. It holds out no safety and no hope. But such a world is not real. I have given it the illusion of reality, and have suffered from my belief in it. Now I choose to withdraw this belief, and place my trust in reality. In choosing this, I will escape all the effects of the world of fear, because I am acknowledging that it does not exist.(14) God did not create a meaningless world. How can a meaningless world exist if God did not create it? He is the Source of all meaning, and everything that is real is in His Mind. It is in my mind too, because He created it with me. Why should I continue to suffer from the effects of my own insane thoughts, when the perfection of creation is my home? Let me remember the power of my decision, and recognize where I really abide.(15) My thoughts are images that I have made. Whatever I see reflects my thoughts. It is my thoughts that tell me where I am and what I am. The fact that I see a world in which there is suffering and loss and death shows me that I am seeing only the representation of my insane thoughts, and am not allowing my real thoughts to cast their beneficent light on what I see. Yet God's way is sure. The images I have made cannot prevail against Him because it is not my will that they do so. My will is His, and I will place no other gods before Him.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Randall Bock – Mental health in America has become a sprawling industry that manages distress rather than curing it. Drawing on clinical experience and psychoanalysis, Eric Greene argues that social breakdown is recast as personal pathology, diagnoses multiply, and medication becomes permanent, leaving patients labeled, compliant, and rarely restored to wholeness...

In this episode, Dr. K explains why finding a "spark" feels harder than ever in a world dominated by dating apps. He explores the biological difference between logical compatibility and true romantic passion, showing how our modern approach to dating might actually be short-circuiting our ability to fall in love. What to expect in this episode: • Compatibility vs. Passion: Why treating dating like a job interview uses the wrong part of your brain and prevents you from feeling chemistry. • The "Spark" Calculus: A look at the Rate of Intimacy Model, which explains why passion comes from how fast you learn about someone, not just what you know. • The Dating App Trap: How having too much information upfront prevents the dopamine hit required to feel a deep romantic connection. • Dopamine Burnout: How modern habits like social media and video games can physically exhaust your brain's ability to fall in love. • Leveling Up Together: An introduction to the Self-Expansion Model, where two individuals transition from a "spark" into building a shared life as a single unit.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.

LESSON 52Review of Lessons 6 - 10Today's review covers these ideas:(6) I am upset because I see what is not there. Reality is never frightening. It is impossible that it could upset me. Reality brings only perfect peace. When I am upset, it is always because I have replaced reality with illusions I made up. The illusions are upsetting because I have given them reality, and thus regard reality as an illusion. Nothing in God's creation is affected in any way by this confusion of mine. I am always upset by nothing.(7) I see only the past. As I look about, I condemn the world I look upon. I call this seeing. I hold the past against everyone and everything, making them my enemies. When I have forgiven myself and remembered Who I am, I will bless everyone and everything I see. There will be no past, and therefore no enemies. And I will look with love on all that I failed to see before.(8) My mind is preoccupied with past thoughts. I see only my own thoughts, and my mind is preoccupied with the past. What, then, can I see as it is? Let me remember that I look on the past to prevent the present from dawning on my mind. Let me understand that I am trying to use time against God. Let me learn to give the past away, realizing that in so doing I am giving up nothing.(9) I see nothing as it is now. If I see nothing as it is now, it can truly be said that I see nothing. I can see only what is now. The choice is not whether to see the past or the present; the choice is merely whether to see or not. What I have chosen to see has cost me vision. Now I would choose again, that I may see.(10) My thoughts do not mean anything. I have no private thoughts. Yet it is only private thoughts of which I am aware. What can these thoughts mean? They do not exist, and so they mean nothing. Yet my mind is part of creation and part of its Creator. Would I not rather join the thinking of the universe than to obscure all that is really mine with my pitiful and meaningless “private” thoughts?- Jesus Christ in ACIM
