Mind Love™ • Consciousness, Spirituality, and Science for Awakening

We will learn: Why we find it so much easier to focus on some thing we consider play rather than something we consider work. Why it doesn’t work when we try to enjoy something. 4 techniques he calls the “S Words” that help you to develop control over your practicing mind. When was the last time you practiced something in order to get better at it? If you’re into sports or musical instruments you probably have a leg up on most adults, but even then, a lot of people just lean into the skills they already have rather than picking up new ones. The thing about practicing, or practicing well I should say, is that it’s a total present moment activity. Our guest is Thomas M. Sterner. He is the founder and CEO of The Practicing Mind Institute. He is considered an expert in Present Moment Functioning or PMF.

We will learn: The consequences of secrets and how to know when to open up. The distinction between secrecy and privacy. The psychology of “positive secrets” (i.e. a proposal, a surprise party, a promotion). On average we each carry 13 secrets. 13 things that we are just unwilling to share with people. This is so shocking to me because I know how secrets can affect a person… and I’ll give you a hint: overall it’s not great. So what do we do about it? How do we know when a secret is harmful and how do we make it more bearable to open up? That’s what we’re talking about today. Our guest is Michael Slepian. He is the leading expert on the psychology of secrets. Slepian has authored more than fifty articles on secrecy, truth, and deception.

We will learn: Why your mental health diagnosis is not your identity. Surprising questions to ask your doctor when you receive a diagnosis. Why our conversation about mental health has stagnated and how to progress it. Did you know that there’s absolutely no way to measure or prove that you have any of the common (or uncommon) mental health diagnoses? This has a ton of negative implications including overprescribing and misdiagnosing. The other big issue with the inaccuracy of these diagnoses is that your mind is powerful. And most people begin to identify with their diagnosis. So today we’re talking about how mental health issues are diagnosed and how you can use this knowledge to make informed decisions when it comes to your mental health. Our guest is Sarah Fay. She’s on the faculty at Northwestern University and the founder of Pathological: The Movement. She is also the author of "Pathological: The True Story of Six Misdiagnoses".

Thinking they can’t help what happened to them and it’s all someone else’s fault.So just going through something hard doesn’t always make you stronger.

We will learn: How experiencing trauma and tragedy can make you more receptive to new spiritual paths. How meditation helps stay resilient in the face of challenges. How to allow for the possibility of a spiritual awakening, even if you’re a complete skeptic. Have you ever gone through something that changed your entire life? I think we all have actually, whether we know it or not. But sometimes something happens and in that moment we know that nothing will ever be the same. We don’t remember most of our lives. We remember key moments that, for whatever reason, had an impact on us. And we tend to remember where we were for big events, such as the events of September 11, 2001. Today’s guest remembers right where he was also, because he was actually on the bottom floor of the first tower that collapsed. A moment like this can make or break us. Either the pain is too much, so we use whatever we can to escape, like addiction, isolation, depression or even suicide. Or the pain is too much, so we use it as a catalyst to make positive changes that lead to a life even better than where we started. It’s always a choice. Whether or not it feels like it, it’s always a choice. But I also know that when you’re in the darkness, it’s hard to find your way to the light. So today we’re talking to someone who found his way. Our guest is Kushal Choksi who narrowly escaped the attacks of 9/11 and used his experience to find meaning and design his life around the quest for peace.

We will learn: Why we are all so prone to addiction. How we are losing the ability to tolerate even minor discomfort. How to fix our pleasure pain balance. Have you ever struggled with an addiction? Or even just the urge to over-indulge?You’ve probably heard that some people are just born with the gene that makes them more susceptible to becoming addicted to things. Maybe you identify with that susceptibility, or maybe you think you’re immune to addiction. But the truth is really none of us are. The survival mechanisms in our brains make it a risk for anyone. Yes some people tend to fall deeper and harder into it, and this can be from a number of factors, including childhood trauma or other environmental factors... but still... addiction doesn’t really discriminate.And now, our technology is exploiting the very reward centers in our brain that tend to lead to addiction. So we’re all just a little bit closer to it than we’d like to admit to ourselves.So in a world of indulgence and over-consumption, how do we avoid or get ourselves out of the cycle of destruction that comes with addiction?That’s what we’re talking about today. Our guest is Anna Lembke, professor of psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine, chief of the Stanford Addiction Medicine Dual Diagnosis Clinic, and author of “Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence”.

We will learn: What the goal of the inner work is. How your partner can help you reveal your soul’s work. The themes of consciousness we must work through and ascend. If you want to experience lasting positive change, you have to do the work. But what the fluff is “the work”? When I first started going down the road of spirituality, I was just focused on the destination. I felt like I needed to fix myself. I had no idea how long it was going to take, I just knew that I was not there yet. The problem is, when we get so caught up in the person we want to be, or the goals we want to accomplish or how far we still have to go, it’s actually really easy to fall into a mindset of lack. And guess what… That illusive “work” that everyone talks about, is done in the now. It’s how you’re choosing to be in this moment, not tomorrow or next week or next year. Now. Welcome. You’re in the now. So now that we’re here, what do we do? That’s what we’re talking about today. Our guests are Mat & Ash, best known as The Yoga Couple.

We will learn: How to differentiate between urgent and important. How our labels and limitations affect our time. An intuitive process for deciding what really matters. The first step is the commitment to finding the time.

You will not be able to find the time. The next step is the logistics. In a world where everything is competing for our attention, how do we find time to do what’s important, when we’re also juggling the hardest job in the world: parenting? That’s what we’re talking about today. Our guest is Christy Wright. She is a No.1 national best-selling author, personal development expert, and host of The Christy Wright Show.

They’re something that everyone in the family can look forward to. They can be the points of stability in a chaotic world. So how do we start to make traditions that our families will look forward to for a lifetime? That’s what we’re talking about today.

We will learn: How to adopt and teach the scandinavian’s relationship with nature. How to change your mindset around bad weather. The little known benefits of unstructured nature play. My husband always says to me, “there’s no such thing as bad weather, just inadequate clothing.” To which my usual reply is, “That’s absolutely and utter bullshit, it’s frigid outside and it makes me want to die.” Okay a little dramatic I know, but my spirit animal is cozy and I like hot tea and fuzzy slippers and warm baths and my husband seems to get off on cold hard steel and I just don’t get it, okay? But I want an expansive mindset that enables me to go or live anywhere so I’m learning to appreciate all that nature has to offer. My husband’s family is in Michigan, and if you know anything about that state, the running joke is “Don’t like the weather? Wait a minute.” But when there is a beautiful day, they enjoy it. The whole summer is spent outside. They spend time really curating their yards, which are forests, making it an even more beautiful and welcome place to be. Maybe all the gloomy days make the sunny days even brighter. So how do we pass on the gift of appreciating nature and all that it entails, regardless of its temperature? That’s what we’re talking about today. Our guest is Linda McGurk, journalist, blogger, and author of the parenting memoir “There’s No Such Thing As Bad Weather: A Scandinavian Mom’s Secrets for Raising Healthy, Resilient, and Confident Kids” (from Friluftsliv to Hygge).Links from the episode: Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/209 Sign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes from your highest self.
