Research shows 70% of us will experience trauma at least once in our lives, but many won't seek therapy to work through it. Whether it's because therapy doesn't feel right for you, it's not accessible, or you want to supplement it with additional strategies, there are many ways to recover from a traumatic experience. From drum circles to spending time in nature, research shows you don't have to talk about trauma to heal from it. There are practical and effective ways to help you regulate your emotions, calm your nervous system, and work through the pain in your own way. Some of the things I discuss today are: Why traditional talk therapy isn't the only path to healing (and sometimes, not the best one). How drumming or theater can help release buried emotions. The surprising ways caring for animals or gardening can soothe your nervous system and promote healing. The specific physical activities that release trauma. The creative outlets that can open up paths to recovery.

Self-care often gets hailed as the ultimate fix for stress, burnout, and every mental health issue. But self-care is frequently misunderstood. Sometimes, it can be like putting a Band-Aid on a deeper wound. So if self-care isn't the cure-all answer, what really helps for long-term change? That's what I'm talking about today. Some of the things I share are: Why self-care isn't designed to fix issues like negative thinking patterns or toxic relationships. The problem with quick fixes like bubble baths when your stress is rooted elsewhere. The psychology behind building mental strength and why it's more important than pampering yourself.

Have you stopped to consider what you're feeding your brain every day? You wouldn't fuel your body with junk food and expect peak performance. But many of us do exactly that with our minds. We doomscroll or binge watch stuff without giving it a second thought. But the things you read, watch, and engage with shape your mental strength. Just like your physical diet, your mental diet has a profound impact on your focus, emotions, and overall well-being. Some of the things I cover in this episode include: How your “mental diet” determines your thoughts, feelings, and resilience. Why consuming negativity—even for just 14 minutes—can leave you anxious and overwhelmed. The telltale signs that you're stuck on a diet of “mental junk food.” The dopamine trap behind social media and why it leaves you craving more but feeling worse. Three simple and practical steps to “clean up” your mental diet and boost your mental clarity. How small shifts in consumption can make a big difference.

When anxiety creeps in slowly (or skyrockets suddenly), you're going to want fast relief. With the right tools, you can calm yourself down right away. Anxiety is one of the most common mental health challenges, but often the advice given for managing it is long-term lifestyle changes that feel out of reach when you're in a state of panic. As a therapist, however, I often teach people fast-acting tools for coping with anxiety. Some of the things I share in this episode are: Why overcoming avoidance is key to breaking the anxiety cycle and regaining control of your life. How to "change the channel" on your anxious brain to interrupt racing thoughts and ruminating. A simple breathing trick called “smell the pizza” that calms your fight-or-flight response instantly. The surprising power of ice water and the mammalian reflex to reset your nervous system. How creating a reverse worry list can trick your brain into reframing anxiety into excitement. Why scheduling time to worry so you put your anxiety in its place and stop it from hijacking your day. How to build a mental strength toolbox that will help you start coping with anxiety effectively today.

When life feels overwhelming, it's easy to assume the answers are out of reach. But sometimes, the solution to your biggest problem is one you already have.

The good news is that there's a strategy that will help you uncover the tools and strengths you've already used to overcome challenges in the past so you can solve whatever challenge you face now. Some of the things I share are: The solution-focused therapy strategy that therapists use to help people uncover their own solutions right away The one question you need to ask yourself to solve any problem you face Why you're stronger than you think (and how to gather proof of it) How to identify what is working already by looking for "exceptions to the rule" How to overcome negativity bias and reframe your mindset for resilience and growth A simple but powerful exercise to replicate your past wins in future challenges Subscribe to Mentally Stronger Premium for exclusive content like bonus episodes, signed books, and 30-day challenges that will keep you growing stronger.

Much has changed since I wrote my book 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do.

Some of the things I share are: The core principles of mental strength that have remained unchanged. New strategies we need to create, like setting digital boundaries. How modern conveniences, like ride sharing and digital payment options, have reshaped our view of risk. How embracing alone time and practicing gratitude can combat the modern pressures of instant gratification and comparison culture. How to use technology as a tool for improving habits while not allowing devices to foster feelings of inadequacy or impatience.

We all have things that scare us. And it's not because we're doing life wrong; fear, in and of itself, is a normal emotion. So then what do we do with it? That's really what this series, For the Love of Facing Your Fears, is all about. Today's guest will be walking us through some strategies on facing our fears in a healthy way by showing us what habits mentally strong people employ in their lives. Amy Morin is a renowned psychotherapist, a bestselling author and she's devoted her whole career to the exploration of what it means to be mentally strong. Her TEDx talk, “The Secret of Becoming Mentally Strong” has been lauded as one of the most impactful TEDx videos to date. Amy's personal journey of loss juxtaposes with Jen's recent experience of starting over again after 26 years of marriage–and they both discuss how fear played into their lives during these periods of grief and loss. Amy gives actionable, easy to employ behaviors that can set us on the course toward conquering our fears–no matter how debilitating. * * * Thought-Provoking Quotes: “It's so easy to get caught up in that idea of ‘I don't want my life to be different because I don't want to make it any worse and if it's going to be different, it's going to be hard to adapt to.'” - Amy Morin “Our fear meters in life are often super faulty. We think if something feels scary, we shouldn't do it and then we don't. I lived a lot of my life like that. Well, that's the perfect recipe for depression, because you live a really safe life and you don't go out there and figure out how exciting things can be and how much you're capable of doing.” - Amy Morin “When our fear runs really high, our intelligence runs really low. You want to balance that and take notice of how scared you feel right now? Fear will cause you to overestimate the likelihood that everything's going to go wrong. It will cause you to underestimate your own capabilities so you've got to raise your logic and balance out that fear a little bit.” - Amy Morin “Taking back your power is all about just stepping back and realizing these are my choices. This is my day, my life. How do I want to spend it? Do I need to set a boundary? Do I need to at least change my language so that I'm not saying other people are forcing me to do something, as opposed to just recognizing I don't want to do this, but I'm going to do it anyway?” - Amy Morin “Mentally strong people don't feel the world owes them anything.” - Amy Morin Resources Mentioned in This Episode: The Secret of Becoming Mentally Strong - Amy Morin's TEDx Talk 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do by Amy Morin (Article) 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do (Book) Guest's Links: Amy's Website Amy's Facebook Amy's Twitter Amy's Instagram Connect with Jen!

Even though grief is part of the human condition and we will all experience it eventually, there are a lot of misunderstandings surrounding it. For example, how long should we grieve? Is there a “right” way to grieve? Does the length of time you are grieving show how much you loved the person you lost? Join us as today's guest, host of the “Mentally Stronger” podcast, Amy Morin, LCSW, answers these questions and more. Amy also shares her personal experiences of grief and some strategies for handling crying in public. To learn more -- or read the transcript -- please visit the episode page. “And then we have this other stuff about the stages of grief which most people have heard. So then it kind of leads people to believe that you go through these nice, neat stages and then you can be like, hey, I'm in stage three. This must be almost over, or we don't really know how long it's supposed to last. Companies give you like three days of bereavement time. So then we think, oh, at the end of the fourth day I'm going to start to feel better. But there's so many factors that go into this, and it's not nice and neat, and it's a lot messier than the definition would lead us to believe.” ~Amy Morin, LCSW Our guest, Amy Morin, is a psychotherapist, mental strength trainer, and the award-winning host of the “Mentally Stronger with Therapist Amy Morin” podcast.
