      <title>The Emotional Affair Starts Before You Notice — 5 Steps to Stop It </title>
      <description>Nearly half of people in committed relationships admit they've had feelings for someone else. A 2024 meta-analysis found that over 70% consider an emotional affair as painful — or more painful — than a physical one.

So why does it still feel harmless in the moment?

In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf breaks down the neuroscience of emotional affairs: why intimacy builds in the brain long before anything physical happens, why secrecy runs on the same chemistry as addiction, and how to use her 5-step Neurocycle practice to rebuild what she calls "intimacy integrity."

You'll learn why your brain doesn't separate emotional connection from romance — it runs on the same dopamine, oxytocin, and adrenaline loop. How "we're just talking" becomes neurological loyalty through repetition. And why the myths that make emotional cheating feel harmless — "it's not physical," "we're just close" — are exactly what make it so hard to stop.

Plus: a concrete 5-step practice to redirect meaning and rebuild loyalty before the connection deepens.

      <title> 7 Ways to Keep Your Brain Young (From a Neuroscientist in Her 60s)</title>
      <description>How do you keep your brain young? Not with supplements or puzzles — but by understanding how your mind drives your brain. Neuroscience now shows that some of the brain's most powerful rewiring happens later in life, not earlier.

In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf walks you through 7 research-backed ways to keep your brain young — not by overhauling your life, but by understanding how your mind drives your brain and making small shifts that change the trajectory of your cognitive lifespan.



🔬 What you'll learn:

- Why brain aging isn't about losing ability — it's about losing the stimulation that keeps your neural pathways flexible and responsive

- How micro novelty rewires your brain faster than any supplement or puzzle — and why predictability is one of the fastest routes to cognitive decline

- Why emotional flexibility (not control) is the strongest predictor of a young brain — and how rigid emotions shrink your mental landscape

- The science of deep rest and why syncing recovery with wakefulness keeps your brain functionally younger than sleep alone

- How reducing cognitive load sharpens your mind more than adding new habits — and the 60-second reset that restores focus

- Why meaningful social interaction keeps processing speed 25-35% higher — and quality matters far more than quantity

- How your identity beliefs shape your brain more than your age does — and why positive aging beliefs add an average of 7.5 years to lifespan

      <title>5 Signs It's Time to Cut Someone Off (A Neuroscientist Explains) </title>
      <description>Almost 60% of adults stay in draining relationships far longer than they should — even when their mind and body have already flagged that something is off.

You feel it:That subtle drop in energy when their name appears.The tension in your body before a conversation that hasn’t even happened yet.The quiet sense that something isn’t right… but no clear “reason” to leave.

In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf explains why your brain starts preparing for emotional impact before you consciously decide how you feel — and how staying in draining relationships can rewire your brain to expect stress, exhaustion, and emotional depletion.

You’ll learn a powerful 5-signal check to help you step out of confusion and into clarity — so you can make decisions that protect your mental, emotional, and physical health.



🔬 What You’ll Learn:


  Why your brain anticipates emotional stress before interaction — and how this affects your body more than your daily workload

  The 5 key signals your mind is sending when a relationship is no longer healthy

  Why the thought “they haven’t done anything that bad” keeps you stuck longer than you should be

  The 4 biggest myths that trap people in draining relationships (and why guilt often overrides logic)

  How even small amounts of distance can significantly reduce stress hormones and restore mental clarity


This episode will help you rethink what “good enough” means in relationships — and show you how to start trusting the signals your mind and body are already giving you.

      <title>The Science of Aging Well (What Most People Miss)</title>
      <description>Longevity is having a moment. But a lot of the conversation skips past the basics and goes straight to the extreme—biohacks, expensive protocols, the next big thing.

So what actually moves the needle when it comes to aging well?

Dr. Caroline Leaf sits down with Dave Watumull, Co-Founder and CEO of AX3 Life, to talk about one of the most researched—and quietly underrated—compounds in the longevity space: astaxanthin. And while that's where the conversation starts, it goes a lot deeper than supplements.

They get into the real difference between lifespan and healthspan, why your internal environment matters more than any product, and how chronic stress and unmanaged thought patterns can actually speed up biological aging.

They also cover:


  What astaxanthin is, where it shows up in nature, and why researchers are paying attention

  How oxidative stress and "inflammaging" wear on the body over time

  What to actually look for—and push back on—when evaluating supplements

  What the latest longevity research tells us, and what it doesn't


The throughline of the whole conversation? You can't out-supplement a stressed mind.

If you want a clearer lens for thinking about long-term health—and where tools like this actually fit in—this one's worth your time.

      <title>You Might Be the Toxic One — Here’s How to Fix It in 5 Steps</title>
      <description>Most people believe they’re less harmful than the average person.But research tells a very different story.

The small things — short replies, subtle defensiveness, dismissive reactions — are often the behaviors that quietly damage relationships over time. And the hardest part? Most people don’t see it in themselves.

In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf breaks down why toxic behavior doesn’t begin with bad intentions — it begins with an unresolved thought. Using neuroscience and mind-brain research, she explains the hidden internal sequence that drives your reactions:

Signal → Trigger → Thought → Meaning → Action

Once you see this pattern, you can finally change it.

You’ll learn how to identify the exact moment your reactions are formed, uncover the thought behind your behavior, and take intentional steps to rewire patterns that others experience as “toxic” — even when you don’t mean them that way.

🔬 What you’ll learn:


  Why the gap between intention and impact is where toxic patterns live

  How confirmation bias blinds you to your own behavior

  The real reason you become defensive, dismissive, or reactive

  How to identify the one thought driving your reaction


  A 5-step framework to change patterns and improve your relationships

      <title>Are You Too Independent? It Might Be a Trauma Response</title>
      <description>Hyper-independence often looks like strength — being capable, self-reliant, and emotionally steady on the outside. But for many people, it forms as a protective response when the mind learns it can’t safely rely on consistent support.

In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf explores the neuroscience and psychology behind hyper-independence, how the mind stores relational patterns that shape emotional self-reliance, and why carrying everything alone eventually creates cognitive and emotional strain. You’ll learn how independence becomes rigid, how cultural narratives quietly reward over-functioning, and what begins to shift internally when the mind experiences steadiness and support.

This conversation isn’t about labeling or diagnosing. It’s about understanding why strength sometimes becomes survival — and how to expand independence without losing it.

      <title>How to Stop Settling and 5 Steps to Building Healthier Relationship </title>
      <description>Settling in relationships isn’t a flaw in your personality — it’s a mental pattern shaped by years of reinforced experiences, internal narratives, and emotional habits.

In this episode, I break down the science behind why we settle and walk you through five practical, brain-based stepsto help you make relational decisions from a place of clarity, stability, and self-respect — rather than familiarity or pressure.

We explore how the mind forms relational templates, how to accurately read your internal warning signals, and how to strengthen your standards using simple, repeatable practices that create lasting change.

These steps are designed to help you build relationships that support your emotional well-being and align with the season of life you’re in now — not the patterns you’ve outgrown.


  
Why the mind gravitates toward familiar (even unhealthy) relationship patterns



  
How internal narratives influence the partners and friendships you choose



  
How to interpret warning signals without fear or overthinking



  
How to define non-negotiables that support emotional steadiness



  
How to use micro-alignment to shift long-standing habits



  
How to make relationship decisions based on consistent evidence, not pressure

      <title>You’re Not Afraid of Failure—You’re Afraid of What Success Will Cost You (And How to Break the Pattern in 5 Steps)</title>
      <description>Most people assume they’re afraid of failure. But for many, the deeper fear is actually success—the visibility, responsibility, and identity shift that comes with getting what you’ve been working toward.

In this episode, I break down the real neuroscience behind success-avoidance, why your mind resists moving forward, and the five steps you can use to update your internal story and take intentional action. These insights come from over 40 years of studying how the mind drives behavior and how identity shifts create real change.

You’ll learn:

    •    Why fear of success is more common than people think

    •    How your mind uses old identity predictions to protect you

    •    What triggers hesitation, overthinking, and self-sabotage

    •    How to uncover the thought driving your resistance

    •    How to update the meaning your mind assigns to success

    •    The small actions that reshape your identity and unlock momentum

      <title>Your Anxiety Isn’t Anxiety — It’s a Misread Signal (Fix It in 5 Steps)</title>
      <description>Most people think they’re living with anxiety.Neuroscience shows many are actually responding to a misread internal signal—and that misunderstanding is what intensifies the experience.

Inside this episode:


  
Why anxiety often isn’t the original problem



  
How misinterpretation amplifies physical sensations



  
The 5 steps to identify the signal, find the trigger, uncover the thought, update the meaning, and take intentional action



  
How this process rewires the brain through neuroplasticity




If you’ve tried calming techniques, mindset shifts, or “pushing through” and nothing stuck—this explains why.

      <title>Most People Lose Their Friends In Their 30s: The Neuroscience of Why People Drift Apart</title>
      <description>If you’re in your 30s+ and your friend group has gotten smaller, quieter, and harder to maintain—this episode explains why it happens and how to rebuild real adult friendships without forcing awkward “we should catch up” conversations.

A lot of friendship loss after 30 isn’t a blow-up. It’s the slow stuff: delayed replies, plans that keep getting pushed, long gaps that start to feel normal. And it’s not just you—adult loneliness is widespread, and research shows close friendships often decline after the late 20s.

In this podcast, we break down the psychology of adult friendship, what shifts in your mind as responsibilities stack up, and the 5 practical changes that help you rebuild a steady inner circle:


  
how to do a social energy audit (so you stop guessing who drains you vs supports you)



  
how to use emotional transparency without oversharing



  
how to build friendship rhythms that survive busy schedules



  
how to stop performing and start connecting with purpose



  
how to do mutual repair when distance shows up




If you’ve been searching for:

“friendships fade after 30,” “losing friends in your 30s,” “adult loneliness,” “how to make friends after 30,” “how to reconnect with old friends,” “how to maintain friendships as an adult,” or “how to rebuild your inner circle,” this is for you.

Share this with someone who’s been hard to reach lately.

Because sometimes the friendship isn’t “over”—it just needs a better structure for adult life.

      <title>The 7-Step Process to Finally Stop Caring What People Think</title>
      <description>If you’ve spent years caring what people think, here’s the truth: you’re not “weak,” despite what others might tell you. This isn’t another motivational video that shames you into a false sense of hyper-confidence.

Instead, we explore how your mind is running a survival pattern no one taught you to interrupt. Social judgment activates the same neural networks as physical pain, and your brain predicts rejection long before anything happens. 

The reason we’re talking about this is that up to 60% of major decisions are influenced by perceived social judgment. That is not a good statistic.

In this episode, we break down the 7-step process that finally helps you:


  
Stop performing for imaginary audiences



  
Separate your identity from other people’s reactions



  
Build self-trust with evidence (not hype)



  
Reframe rejection so it stops feeling personal



  
Challenge the internal narrator that keeps you small



  
Hold your ground in real-time moments




If you’re exhausted from people-pleasing, shrinking, overthinking, or shaping your life around imagined opinions, this episode will hit exactly where it needs to.

      <title>Ozempic and the Brain: What GLP-1 Drugs Are Really Doing to Your Mind</title>
      <description>Ozempic and other GLP-1 medications aren’t just changing bodies. They’re changing brains too.

In this episode, I unpack what’s really happening beneath the surface when you take medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, or Mounjaro. Not from a place of hype or fear-mongering, but from curiosity, neuroscience, and compassion.

We talk about how GLP-1s influence hunger, motivation, emotional balance, and even your sense of self, and why so many people are surprised by the mental and emotional shifts that come along with physical weight loss.

You’ll learn:


  
How GLP-1s interact with dopamine and reward pathways in the brain



  
Why some people experience emotional blunting, reduced motivation, or changes in desire



  
What actually happens when you stop taking them, and why hunger returning isn’t failure, weakness, or a lack of discipline



  
The neuroscience behind craving, self-control, and identity



  
What hunger really does for emotional regulation and psychological resilience




And just as important, this isn’t an episode telling you what you should do.

Whether a GLP-1 medication is right for you is a deeply personal decision, one that only you and your doctor can make together based on your body, your health history, and your life. There is no moral hierarchy here. Using a GLP-1 is not cheating, not taking shortcuts, and not something that requires justification or shame.

This conversation is about understanding what these medications do to the brain so you can make informed, self-respecting choices, whatever those choices end up being.

If this message resonates with you, like, comment, subscribe, and share to help more people understand how the brain and body really connect.

      <title>Before You Start Therapy: What No One Tells You About the First Weeks</title>
      <description>Thinking about starting therapy?  Or just beginning your healing journey?Before you dive in, there’s something most people are never told.

In the first few weeks of therapy, emotions can intensify, old memories can resurface, and you may feel worse instead of better. This is known as the activation dip — and it’s not a failure. It’s a sign that your mind is beginning real change.

In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf, clinical neuroscientist and mental health expert, explains the science behind why therapy can feel harder at first, what’s happening in your brain during emotional healing, and how to move through this phase without quitting too soon.

You’ll learn how to recognize the difference between productive discomfort and burnout, how to stay regulated during emotional activation, and how to set yourself up for lasting transformation from day one.



🧠 What you’ll learn in this episode:

✔️ Why therapy often feels worse before it feels better✔️ What the activation dip is — and why it signals progress✔️ The two key factors you can control to make therapy effective✔️ How to track emotional and physical warning signals✔️ Practical tools from Help in a Hurry to stay engaged and avoid early dropout

      <title>Why You’re Attracted to the Wrong People — The Neuroscience of Love Patterns (7 Brain Traps)</title>
      <description>Most people think their struggles in love come down to bad luck or the wrong partner. Neuroscience tells a different story.

In this episode,I break down the 7 hidden brain traps that shape attraction, repeat unhealthy relationship patterns, and leave love feeling harder than it should. You’ll learn how past experiences and emotional wiring influence who you’re drawn to, why dating apps often reinforce old patterns, and how to begin rewiring your love life in as little as 48 hours using practical, science-backed strategies.

Whether you’re single or in a relationship, this episode offers clarity—and a new way forward.

      <title>Stop Trying to Stay Safe—It’s Making You Sick</title>
      <description>You've trained your brain to see danger everywhere—and you didn't even realize it.

Every notification. Every "suspicious person" post. Every late-night scroll through your neighborhood app. Your brain is learning that the world is unsafe, that strangers are threats, and that vigilance equals virtue.

But constant alertness doesn't make you safer. It makes you separate.

In this episode, I reveal how modern "safety culture" is secretly destroying your mental health—and teaching you to fear the very people who could become your community.

In This Episode, You'll Discover:

💡 Why constant vigilance makes you LESS safe—your nervous system can't tell the difference between protection and panic

🧠 The neuroscience of neighborhood paranoia—how every alert trains your brain to expect danger (even when there isn't any)

🛠️ A 5-step tool to rewire fear in real time—no therapy required, just 5 minutes and a willingness to pause

❤️ How trust became the missing ingredient—and why connection (not cameras) is what your brain actually needs to feel safe

🌍 The ripple effect of one person's shift—how changing your own meaning can transform an entire community

      <title>Cutting Off a Parent: The Neuroscience Behind the Hardest Decision</title>
      <link>https://playlist.megaphone.fm?e=YAP1327598193</link>
      <description>Have you ever wondered when creating distance from a parent becomes an act of protection rather than abandonment? Or why stepping back can bring both a deep sense of calm and a quiet ache that lingers beneath the surface? This emotional crossroads is not only psychological. It is profoundly neurological.
In this episode of the Dr. Leaf Show, I break down the rising phenomenon of cutting off parents and what actually happens inside the mind and brain when connection stops feeling safe. We explore why distance can regulate the nervous system, why grief often shows up even when the decision is necessary, and how attachment pathways continue to fire long after contact ends. You will walk away with a grounded, compassionate understanding of this experience along with practical tools to navigate guilt, clarity and emotional steadiness.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
✅ The neuroscience behind why estrangement activates both relief and grief
✅ How chronic relational stress reshapes threat pathways in the brain
✅ Why familiarity pulls you back even when the relationship was harmful
✅ How guilt forms when old attachment networks search for new direction
✅ Practical Neurocycle strategies to process the mix of calm, confusion and loss
✅ How to rebuild inner coherence whether you stay, step back, or seek repair

      <title>Why You Become Triggered by Family During the Holidays</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/why-you-become-triggered-by-family-during-the-holidays</link>
      <description>Have you ever walked into your family home for the holidays and felt yourself slipping back into old patterns—people-pleasing, shutting down, overreacting—even when you thought you’d grown past them? It’s not just psychological—it’s neurological.
In this episode, I break down the science behind why holiday visits activate dormant emotional pathways and how to stay anchored in your present identity. You’ll learn practical tools to interrupt old scripts and keep control of your mind, even when the environment tries to pull you back.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
✅ Why childhood environments trigger survival patterns in adulthood
✅ How familiar voices, smells, and rooms activate your limbic system
✅ The 3-step Holiday Grounding Plan to avoid emotional regression
✅ Simple Neurocycle® strategies to keep you in control before, during, and after visits

      <title>The Hidden Cost of Office Culture</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/the-hidden-cost-of-office-culture</link>
      <description>Is return to office really about “culture”—or is it quietly draining families, energy, and trust?
In this episode, I unpack what’s actually happening in your mind and brain when RTO policies shrink your choices, stretch your days, and turn Sunday nights into dread. You’ll learn why lost autonomy registers as threat, how that shows up as jaw tension, irritability, and exhaustion, and why none of this makes you weak or “not a team player”—it makes you human.
We’ll walk through the science of motivation (autonomy, competence, and connection), allostatic load, and how your brain’s stress chemistry changes when your work rhythm stops matching your life rhythm. Then I’ll show you how to use the 5-step Neurocycle to translate “return to office rage” into practical redesigns: small, repeatable choices that protect family rituals, restore a sense of control, and rebuild culture based on trust instead of attendance. 
This episode is for parents, new grads, managers, and leaders who feel torn between policy and people—and who want a healthier way forward for both work and home.
📘 My new book Help in a Hurry is out now! 
Get It Here: www.helpinahurrybook.com 
Inside the book, I walk you through:
• How to interrupt “return to office rage” using the 5-step Neurocycle
• Tools to rebuild agency when your schedule keeps shifting
• Why your brain treats lost choice as danger—and how your mind can step in
• Language you can use with yourself, your team, and your family in the moment

      <itunes:subtitle>Why "RTO" Feels like a Setback</itunes:subtitle>
      <itunes:summary>Is return to office really about “culture”—or is it quietly draining families, energy, and trust?
In this episode, I unpack what’s actually happening in your mind and brain when RTO policies shrink your choices, stretch your days, and turn Sunday nights into dread. You’ll learn why lost autonomy registers as threat, how that shows up as jaw tension, irritability, and exhaustion, and why none of this makes you weak or “not a team player”—it makes you human.
We’ll walk through the science of motivation (autonomy, competence, and connection), allostatic load, and how your brain’s stress chemistry changes when your work rhythm stops matching your life rhythm. Then I’ll show you how to use the 5-step Neurocycle to translate “return to office rage” into practical redesigns: small, repeatable choices that protect family rituals, restore a sense of control, and rebuild culture based on trust instead of attendance. 
This episode is for parents, new grads, managers, and leaders who feel torn between policy and people—and who want a healthier way forward for both work and home.

      <title>This is Why You're Afraid of Being Happy</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/joy-after-trauma</link>
      <description>Why do we sometimes panic when things finally get better? Why can rest, safety, or even joy register as unpredictable or unsafe?
In this episode, I walk you through what happens when a trauma-trained brain reacts to peace like it’s danger—and how your mind can gently redirect that response. You’ll learn what joy-triggered anxiety actually reflects, why the brain loops it so quickly, and how to retrain the pattern in a way that doesn’t rely on guilt or pressure.
If you're tired of waiting for the rug to be pulled out from under you, this video is for you.
📘 My new book Help in a Hurry is out now!

Inside the book and course, I walk you through:
• How to interrupt trauma-trained reactions using the 5-step Neurocycle
• Tools for building joy tolerance gradually and intentionally
• Why your brain loops protective responses—and how your mind can step in
• Real language to redirect thought patterns in the moment

      <title>Staying Together for the Kids Isn’t the Safety Net You Think</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/staying-together-for-the-kids-isnt-the-safety-net-you-think</link>
      <description>You think you’re staying together for the kids. But are they truly safe—or just absorbing tension they can’t name?
In this solo episode, I explore the neuroscience of “silent divorce,” where parents remain physically together but emotionally disconnected. Research shows this doesn’t protect children—it rewires their developing brains to expect instability, even when everything looks “fine.”
You’ll learn:
✅ Why kids internalize emotional misalignment even without visible conflict
✅ How chronic tension changes identity and self-regulation
✅ Simple steps to create congruence and emotional safety at home
This episode isn’t about blame—it’s about awareness. And when you shift what your nervous system broadcasts, you change what your child inherits.

      <title>Your Outrage is Being Monetized and Your Mind is Paying the Price</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/your-outrage-is-being-monetized</link>
      <description>Algorithms don’t just track what you like—they profit from how often you spiral. In this episode, I break down what happens to your brain when you stay stuck in outrage cycles. 
You’ll learn:
✅ The dopamine-cortisol loop fueling reactive scrolling
✅ How non-conscious thought patterns rehearse chaos into identity
✅ Why emotional volatility gets monetized—and how to reclaim your mind
This isn’t about deleting your apps. It’s about updating the mental architecture that keeps you in a loop you didn’t consent to.

      <title>Why So Many Women Feel They're Never Enough — Elise Loehnen on Breaking Cultural Conditioning</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/why-so-many-women-feel-theyre-never-enough-elise-loehnen-on</link>
      <description>Why do so many women feel an unspoken pressure to “be good”—to perform endless selflessness at the cost of their own identity?
In this conversation, I sit down with Elise Loehnen, author of On Our Best Behavior, to unpack the centuries-old scripts that bind women to ideals of goodness rooted in the Seven Deadly Sins. We’ll explore the neuroscience behind identity formation, why reputation feels like survival, and how to break free without burning bridges.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
✅ The hidden cost of cultural conditioning on women’s mental health
✅ Why “being good” often comes at the expense of authenticity
✅ The neuroscience of identity and how to rewrite old scripts
✅ Practical steps for reframing self-worth and reclaiming agency

      <title>Parenthood Is Beautiful—But the Mental Load Can Break You</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/parenthood-is-beautifulbut-the-mental-load-can-break-you</link>
      <description>Being a parent doesn’t just ask for your time—it asks for your mind, your brain, and your body. The planning, predicting, soothing, deciding, remembering… it adds up. And the longer you carry the invisible weight, the more it rewires your mind to expect pressure instead of peace.
In this episode, I’ll show you the neuroscience behind mental load, why emotional regulation often falls to one person in the home, and how to use small brain-based strategies to reduce burnout without guilt.

      <itunes:summary>Being a parent doesn’t just ask for your time—it asks for your mind, your brain, and your body. The planning, predicting, soothing, deciding, remembering… it adds up. And the longer you carry the invisible weight, the more it rewires your mind to expect pressure instead of peace.
In this episode, I’ll show you the neuroscience behind mental load, why emotional regulation often falls to one person in the home, and how to use small brain-based strategies to reduce burnout without guilt.

      <title>When Success Creates Distance in Your Relationships</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/when-success-creates-distance-in-your-relationships</link>
      <description>Success is supposed to feel good. But what if it also feels… lonely? 
What if your growth created distance from the people you love most?
In this episode, I’ll explain the neuroscience of relational disconnection after personal growth—why self-comparison, status shifts, and unspoken shame rewire the brain and fracture emotional safety. Whether it’s family, friends, or your partner, I’ll show you how to recognize when distance is caused by trauma patterns—not truth—and how to rebuild closeness without shrinking yourself.

      <title>How Political Division Trains Your Mind to Fear People</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/how-political-division-trains-your-mind-to-fear-people</link>
      <description>Why does political division feel so personal—and so addictive? 
In this episode, I unpack the neuroscience of ideological entrenchment, how tribal identity shapes our threat response, and why outrage keeps getting rewarded by your brain’s own chemistry.
You’ll learn:
✅ How repeated exposure to conflict rewires your brain (ideological neuroplasticity)
✅ Why your nervous system confuses disagreement with danger
✅ The real cost of certainty—and how dopamine drives polarization
✅ A 5-minute micro-tool to break the loop and reclaim mental clarity
This isn’t about silencing your values. It’s about staying present in a world designed to keep you outraged—and helping your brain feel safe without rigidity.

      <title>Dream Big, Wire Bigger: Mark Pentecost on Mindset That Rewires Your Brain</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/dream-big-wire-bigger-mark-pentecost-on-mindset-that-rewires</link>
      <description>Why do some people turn vision into reality—again and again?
In this episode, I sit down with entrepreneur and philanthropist Mark Pentecost, founder of It Works! and author of Life of Your Dreams. Mark went from high school teacher and coach to building a global business—and now teaches others how to “train” vision like a muscle.
We’ll map his practical steps onto the neuroscience of behavior change, so you can learn how environment, micro-habits, and meaning rewire your brain for sustainable success.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
✅ How to “train” vision like a muscle (and pick the right rooms)
✅ A tiny daily rehearsal that locks in momentum
✅ How to reconceptualize failure so it upgrades your wiring
✅ Why purpose &amp; generosity improve mental regulation
Follow Mark on Instagram: @themarkpentecost

      <title>Why do friendship breakups sometimes hurt more than romantic ones?</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/why-do-friendship-breakups-sometimes-hurt-more-than-romantic</link>
      <description>We talk about breakups all the time—but rarely about the pain of losing a close friend. Yet, the grief can feel even heavier. Why? Because friendships are coded deep into your brain’s identity systems.
In this episode, I’ll explain:
✅ How the brain stores friendship bonds in emotional memory
✅ Why the loss of a friend triggers identity confusion
✅ Why you still replay conversations and crave closure
✅ How to heal without the “final talk” and start feeling whole again
This isn’t about pretending it didn’t matter. It’s about finding coherence inside your mind when the friendship story feels unfinished. 🎧 Watch now to understand why your grief is real—and how to move forward without losing yourself.

      <title>What if Your Brain Isn’t Broken—It’s Just NAD Depleted? A Deep Dive into NAD Supplements with Guest Dr. Andrew Salzman of Wonderfeel</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/what-if-your-brain-isnt-brokenits-just-depleted-with-special</link>
      <description>Brain fog, anxiety, and mental decline are often treated like inevitable parts of aging. But what if that narrative is wrong?
In this episode, I’m joined by Harvard-trained physician and NAD expert Dr. Andrew Salzman, Chief Medical Officer at Wonderfeel, to explore the science of brain aging—and why your brain’s “fuel supply” matters more than you think.
We’ll unpack:
✅ Why cognitive decline isn’t inevitable
✅ How one molecule (NAD+) drives 500+ critical cellular functions
✅ Why NAD levels plunge by 50% by midlife—and what that means for brain health
✅ The surprising role of CD38 in accelerating aging
✅ Real-life benefits of NMN supplementation for energy, focus, and recovery
✅ How the Wonderfeel Youngr™ NMN formula is designed to protect NAD and support healthy aging
This conversation is about proactive longevity—not just adding years to life, but life to your years. Whether you’re 25 or 65, your brain needs energy to thrive.
🎧 Tune in now and learn how to keep your brain sharp, your memory strong, and your mind energized for decades to come.

      <title>Parenting Fear Traps the Brain in Chronic Alert Mode</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/parenting-fear-traps-the-brain-in-chronic-alert-mode</link>
      <description>Is fear for your child’s future ruining your life?
Parenting today feels like living in a state of constant alert—climate headlines, tech dangers, school safety, mental health worries. But what if your chronic fear is changing your brain and sabotaging your ability to parent with presence?
In this episode, I break down the neuroscience of parenting fear loops and explain:
✅ Why your brain keeps rehearsing worst-case scenarios
✅ How chronic hypervigilance rewires neural networks
✅ Why vigilance isn’t love—and what protects your child better
✅ Simple, science-backed steps to reset your brain and regain peace
This isn’t about ignoring danger. It’s about breaking free from fear-based parenting so you can lead with calm clarity.
🎧 Watch now to learn the tools that protect your peace—because your peace protects your child.

      <title>Hard Truths Not Everyone Is Ready to Hear</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/hard-truths-not-everyone-is-ready-to-hear</link>
      <description>😳 “I might be the problem.”
That’s not a trend. That’s a turning point.
In this powerful episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf walks you through 8 psychologically disruptive truths that your brain might resist—but your healing may depend on. Rooted in neuroscience and psychoneurobiology, this is your invitation to reflect deeply, interrupt rehearsed patterns, and get radically honest without shame.
🧠 You’ll learn:

Why your brain treats uncomfortable truth like a threat


How the anterior cingulate cortex and default mode network resist accountability

What happens when shame hijacks healing (and how to stop it)

How overidentifying with self-diagnoses can rewire dysfunction


Why joy is not a reward—it’s a skill your brain can rehearse

How sugar and stillness shrink your brain’s adaptability


The neuroscience behind why we push away what we most need to hear


💥 Whether it’s facing your patterns, questioning your comfort, or re-evaluating what you call “coping”—this episode is here to interrupt, not to punish. To clarify, not to condemn.
🎧 Chapters include:

00:00 Facing Your True Self

00:57 The Science of Confronting Hard Truths

01:39 The Power of Neuroplasticity

02:07 Five Hard Truths for Personal Growth

03:46 Acknowledging Your Role in Healing

06:30 The Impact of Labels on Self-Perception

08:58 Happiness as a Practice

12:35 The Effects of Sugar on the Brain

14:09 The Importance of Movement

15:55 Embracing Discomfort for Growth

18:23 Reflective Insight Over Shame

20:57 Conclusion and Next Steps


This is one of the most powerful episodes we’ve ever recorded—and if it stings, that doesn’t mean it’s wrong. It means it landed.

      <title>The Hidden Link Between Your Gut &amp; Brain</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/the-hidden-link-between-your-gut-brain</link>
      <description>Feeling wired, foggy, or emotionally reactive? Your gut might be the first place to look. 
In this powerful conversation with research microbiologist Kiran Krishnan, founder of Just Thrive, we explore how your microbiome shapes mood, resilience, immunity, and even the way you handle stress. Kiran is a research microbiologist and a health and wellness expert who aims to make complex information understandable to all. He has founded a number of successful health and supplement companies over the last 20 years including co-founding and leading Microbiome Labs, the preeminent, microbiome therapeutics focused brand among healthcare professionals. 
He has also been the driving force behind the scientific development of Just Thrive's line of products. He has conducted and published several research studies in scientific journals, has published chapters in scientific textbooks/reference books, has global patents and is a sought after speaker on human health and the microbiome. Kiran brings his extensive knowledge and practical application of the latest science on the human microbiome as it relates to health and wellness.
You’ll learn why most probiotics don’t survive your stomach acid, the five pillars for protecting your gut-brain connection, and how small shifts can transform your mental clarity. We also cover the surprising science of gut health in pets—and what you can do for them too.

      <title>Alyson Stoner on Healing Childhood Fame, Identity &amp; Mental Health</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/alyson-stoner-on-healing-childhood-fame-identity-mental-heal</link>
      <description>What happens when childhood fame shapes your identity, rewires your brain, and leaves no roadmap for healing? 🎬
In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Alyson Stoner—actor, dancer, singer, activist, and founder of Movement Genius—to explore the hidden costs of early success and the science of reclaiming your inner world.
Alyson shares raw insights from their new book Semi Well Adjusted Despite Literally Everything, diving into the pressures of the entertainment industry, the long-term effects of growing up on set, and the neuroscience-backed practices that helped them rebuild.
We unpack:
• Why stability and “boring” routines are essential for brain and body healing
• How fame impacts mental health and identity formation
• The toddler-to-train-wreck pipeline in child stardom—and how to break it
• Tools for reconnecting with yourself after trauma
• The role of community, neuroscience, and intentional practice in real recovery

      <title>What No One Tells You About Healing in Real Time (Help In a Hurry Launch Special)</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/what-no-one-tells-you-about-healing-in-real-time-help-in-a-h</link>
      <description>It’s launch day!
Help In a Hurry is officially out. And in this episode, I’m reading from the book—directly to you. But this isn’t a sales pitch. This is a neuroscience map for when everything’s blurry and loud and "fixing yourself" feels like another to-do. You’ll hear some of the spiciest truths, most personal reframes, and raw insights that didn’t make it to social media. And you’ll leave with a whole new understanding of how fast and how slow real healing actually works.

      <description>When Sarah Robbins lost her billion-dollar sales business overnight, it wasn’t just income she had to grieve—it was identity, leadership, and the thousands of relationships wired into her brain. 
In this episode, we talk about how betrayal changes your mental landscape, how forgiveness protects neuroplasticity, and why clarity often comes from knowing who you are when the systems fall away. Sarah shares how she rebuilt her business and emotional stability in just one year—starting not from scratch, but from wisdom.

      <title>The Myth of Productivity</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/the-myth-of-productivity</link>
      <description>🚫 You’ve been told more = better.
More hours. More effort. More output.
But here’s the truth: Your brain isn’t built for constant productivity.
It’s built for rhythm. Recovery. Thoughtful flow.
In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf breaks down the neuroscience behind why “pushing through” is breaking you down—and how to finally reclaim clarity, energy, and focus through smarter, rhythm-based strategies.
🧠 You’ll learn:


Why your brain maxes out after 90 minutes of focus


How ignoring recovery triggers toxic stress and cortisol surges

Why your creative insight lives in the Default Mode Network


How addition-thinking keeps your brain in overload

The Flow Sprint method for regaining control (without burnout)

Why willpower is a myth—and rhythm is your real superpower

What true rest looks like (hint: it’s not scrolling)


This episode is a wake-up call for anyone who feels fried, foggy, or like nothing is ever enough.
🎧 Chapters:


00:00 The Productivity Myth: More Isn't Better

00:12 The Science of Cognitive Performance

01:39 The Trap of Constant Drive

04:27 Understanding Your Brain's Rhythms

07:34 The Power of Subtraction

11:32 Implementing Effective Work Sprints

22:46 The Importance of True Rest

26:15 Conclusion: Protect Your Rhythm

      <title>Reclaiming Your Identity After Narcissistic Abuse</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/reclaiming-your-identity-after-narcissistic-abuse</link>
      <description>If you've ever felt trapped, confused, or emotionally drained by someone who constantly makes everything about them—this episode is for you.
I'm joined by world-renowned narcissism expert Dr. Ramani Durvasula to explore the reality of narcissistic relationships and how to recover from their impact. We talk about:


What narcissism really is (and isn’t)

The signs of emotional abuse most people overlook

Why reclaiming your identity requires radical acceptance

What healing actually looks like — with or without going no-contact

Why some people stay — and how to survive if you do

How parents can navigate narcissistic adult children

The role of love bombing, guilt, and control

What makes healing harder — and how to make it easier


Dr. Ramani breaks down practical ways to protect your peace, build emotional clarity, and rebuild your self-worth.

      <title>Your Brain Is Carrying Too Much</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/your-brain-is-carrying-too-much</link>
      <description>📱 You’re not just tired—you’re carrying too much.
Before your feet even hit the floor, your brain has already absorbed more emotional input than it can process. From news to reels to distant crises, your nervous system is on high alert… even if nothing’s happening to you directly.
🧠 In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf reveals the neuroscience of input fatigue, the biological cost of constant exposure, and how to reclaim clarity through a science-backed reset.
🔬 You’ll learn:


What happens when your amygdala is constantly lit up by scrolling

How empathy without resolution leads to mental fog and burnout

The link between your messy conscious mind and thought clutter

How interoceptive anchoring calms your nervous system in under 2 minutes

Why small micro-boundaries can reshape your brain through neuroplasticity


🎯 This episode is your survival guide for overstimulated minds—rooted in real neuroscience and filled with practical tools you can use today.
🎬 Chapters Include:


00:00 The Overload of Constant Input

00:18 The Science Behind Emotional Overload

01:42 The Impact on Your Brain and Body

02:28 Introduction to the Dr. Leaf Show

02:54 Understanding the Mind-Brain-Body Connection

05:44 The Role of the Amygdala and Prefrontal Cortex

11:38 Practical Steps to Rewire Your Brain

14:35 Conclusion and Further Resources


If you wake up feeling foggy, tense, or emotionally “full” before the day even starts—this episode is for you.

      <title>How to Handle Betrayal</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/how-to-handle-betrayal</link>
      <description>🧠 You trusted them. And they weaponized it.
Betrayal isn’t just emotional. According to neuroscience, it affects your brain the same way physical pain does—and unless you process it, it keeps rewiring how you trust, relate, and show up.
In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf explains the psychoneurobiology of betrayal, what it does to your mind-brain-body network, and how to reclaim your safety without denying your story.
📉 You’ll learn:

Why betrayal pain lives in your brain and nervous system long after it’s over

What happens when trust becomes a trauma loop


The reason "moving on" doesn’t work without meaning-making


A 3-part Trust Audit + Interoceptive Reset tool to calm your system

How to rewire your brain through intentional micro-moments of safety




This episode is for the quiet grievers. The strong ones still carrying silent weight. The ones healing out loud—on their own terms.
🎧 Chapters include:


00:00 Introduction: The Impact of Betrayal

01:39 Understanding Betrayal and Its Effects

02:24 The Layers and Spread of Betrayal

03:05 The Mind-Body Connection in Betrayal

04:25 Healing and Reconceptualization

08:56 Practical Steps for Reclaiming Safety

12:45 Rebuilding Trust and Resilience

13:52 Conclusion and Resources


If betrayal has ever made you shrink your voice or doubt your worth, this conversation is a step toward remembering who you were before the wound—and rebuilding who you’re becoming after it.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/mastering-the-art-of-dating</link>
      <description>Dating today feels like emotional gymnastics — and no one knows that better than Talia, a dating expert and podcast host who went on 150 dates in one year. In this episode, I sit down with Talia to unpack what she learned, how she stayed grounded, and why modern dating can be so mentally exhausting.
We talk about:

The neuroscience of dating and attachment styles

How to build resilience after rejection

Dating app burnout

What “slow burn chemistry” actually means

The role of neuroplasticity in healing unhealthy patterns

Why self-compassion might be your strongest dating tool

Talia also shares daily practices, mindset shifts, and practical advice that will help anyone — whether you’re new to dating, starting over, or just tired of the same dead-end patterns.
This conversation will change how you think about dating, love, and your brain.
📌 Chapters:
00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome
00:30 Talia's Journey to Becoming a Dating Expert
01:12 Scientific Approach to Dating

      <description>😩 Feeling stuck in something that used to work—but now just drains you?
This episode is for the moment you realize: “I can’t keep doing this.”
Dr. Caroline Leaf breaks down the brain science behind why it’s so hard to let go—and how to finally move on with clarity, intention, and real psychological tools.

Why your amygdala resists change (and how to work with it)
The psychoneurobiology of letting go and nervous system safety
What co-regulation and unprocessed stress signals really mean
Why goal disengagement isn’t failure—it’s intelligent redirection
How to use intentional micro-steps to retrain your brain and rebuild resilience
🧠 Backed by recent studies in neuroscience and psychology, Dr. Leaf offers a practical, research-based guide to starting fresh, grounded in compassion—not hustle.

      <title>How Fatherhood Rewires the Brain (and Why So Many Men Stay Silent) </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/how-fatherhood-rewires-the-brain-and-why-so-many-men-stay-si</link>
      <description> In this episode, I explore what happens in a man’s mind when he becomes a father—and why so many dads carry their emotional weight in silence.
From new dads to empty-nesters, the mental and emotional load of fatherhood is real—but rarely named. I’ll walk you through the neuroscience of paternal bonding, stress regulation, identity shifts, and inherited emotional silence. This is not just a tribute to dads—it’s a call to see them, support them, and understand them through the lens of brain science and mental health.
I also sit down with my husband, Mac Leaf, for a candid conversation about his experience as a father—and what he wishes more people knew.
This is the episode every dad, partner, son, and supporter of fatherhood needs to hear.
🔖 Chapters
00:00 Introduction: The Silent Struggles of Fathers
01:31 The Neuroscience of Fatherhood
03:58 The Mental Load of Fatherhood
04:31 Emotional Suppression and Its Costs
11:32 Practical Steps for Connection and Healing
13:11 A Personal Conversation with Mac Leaf
19:17 Final Thoughts: The Importance of Acknowledging Fathers

      <title>Why You Panic, Please, or Shut Down: The 6 Stress Languages Explained</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/why-you-panic-please-or-shut-down-the-6-stress-languages-exp</link>
      <description>What’s your stress language—and how is it secretly shaping your thoughts, reactions, and health? In this transformative episode of The Dr. Leaf Show, Dr. Caroline Leaf breaks down the six main “stress languages”—the hidden emotional patterns that kick in when life gets overwhelming: the Fighter, Freezer, Fixer, Fleer, Suppressor, and Pleaser.
Unlike love languages, stress languages reveal how your brain and body respond to pressure, conflict, and fear. Are you shutting down? Fixing everyone’s problems but your own? Or smiling while silently screaming inside?
Dr. Leaf explains the neuroscience behind stress, how to tell the difference between positive and toxic stress, and how to retrain your brain using the proven 5-step Neurocycle method. You’ll walk away with powerful insights and practical tools to decode your own stress responses—and reclaim peace and clarity in the middle of chaos.

      <title>The Fastest Way to Heal Isn’t Therapy—It’s This (with Dave Asprey)</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/the-fastest-way-to-heal-isnt-therapyits-this-with-dave-aspre</link>
      <description>What if emotional resilience is the ultimate biohack?
In this candid and high-impact episode, Dave Asprey—father of biohacking and founder of Bulletproof—joins Dr. Leaf for a mind-expanding conversation on anxiety, forgiveness, neurofeedback, and what it really takes to reset your nervous system. From decoding the three types of anxiety to unpacking forgiveness as the “fifth F-word,” Dave shares practical strategies and deeply personal moments, including how he navigated public betrayal and burnout while staying grounded in his purpose.
Together, they explore the intersection of brain science, trauma healing, and high performance—making space for “weird brains,” somatic awareness, and efficient transformation that doesn’t require suffering.
If you're ready to stop performing wellness and start embodying resilience, this episode is your reset ritual.

      <description>🎧 Podcast Description
Is Your Brain on Overdrive? Here's How to Tell If You're Thinking Too Much—Or Thinking Well
We’ve all been there—replaying conversations, worrying about the future, spiraling in a loop of mental noise. But is that really helping you—or just stressing you out?
In this bite-sized episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf breaks down the powerful difference between overthinking and deep thinking, and why understanding the two could change your mental health game. You’ll learn how to stop spiraling, quiet the chaos in your mind, and train your brain to think in a way that actually moves you forward—not keeps you stuck.
🧠 Key Highlights

The neuroscience of why we overthink—and how to stop it in 63 seconds

How to spot when you’ve crossed the line from reflecting to ruminating

3 simple ways to shift from anxious thinking to deliberate, deep thinking

Breathing and journaling techniques that calm your nervous system

Why movement, curiosity, and questioning are your superpowers for mental peace

      <title>Waiting for an Apology Is Keeping You Stuck</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/waiting-for-an-apology-is-keeping-you-stuck</link>
      <description>What if the apology you’re waiting for never comes?
In this powerful episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf unpacks how to move on when someone never acknowledges the pain they caused. You’ll learn how unresolved hurt affects your brain and body—and how to rewire your healing from the inside out. Backed by neuroscience, packed with practical tools, and grounded in emotional truth, this episode will help you let go of resentment, reclaim your power, and find peace—whether or not you ever hear “I’m sorry.”
🧠 “You don’t need their apology. You need your permission to heal.”

      <title>When to Stay, When to Go: How to Navigate Hard Life Decisions</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/when-to-stay-when-to-go-how-to-navigate-hard-life-decisions</link>
      <description>In this episode, I unpack one of life's hardest decisions: when to stay and work through challenges—and when it’s time to move on for the sake of your mental and emotional health.
You'll learn how to tune into the signals your mind and body are sending you, recognize when discomfort leads to growth versus harm, and use simple mind-management tools from my new book Help in a Hurry to build clarity and resilience.
Key highlights:

How to tell the difference between growth pain and toxic stress

The role of neuroplasticity in healing after hard decisions

Simple mindset shifts to help you move forward with confidence

Reflective questions to guide your next right step


You are not stuck. You are not powerless. Your mind holds the wisdom you need to choose your next chapter.

      <title>How to Use Neuroplasticity to Build a Million Dollar Network with Craig Siegel</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/how-to-use-neuroplasticity-to-build-a-million-dollar-network</link>
      <description>In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with my dear friend and transformational life coach, Craig Siegel, to explore what it truly means to reinvent your mind and your life.
Craig shares his powerful personal story — from the high-pressure world of Wall Street to becoming a bestselling author and thought leader — and how rewiring his own mindset through intentional neuroplasticity led him to a more meaningful, purpose-driven life.
Together, we unpack the science and strategy behind reinvention, mindset shifts, and conscious connection — and how you can apply these tools to build authentic relationships, overcome imposter syndrome, and unlock mental resiliencefor personal and professional growth.

🔑 In this episode, you’ll learn:
How to rewire your brain for reinvention using the power of neuroplasticity

Practical steps to overcome imposter syndrome and embrace your true identity

The neuroscience behind shifting mindsets from survival to purpose

Why authenticity and aligned energy are key to building meaningful networks

How to move from fear-based decisions to intentional, brain-directed change


The daily habits Craig used to transform his life — and how you can use them too


This is more than a conversation — it’s a practical, empowering guide to embracing change with intention and clarity. You’ll leave inspired, grounded, and equipped with tools to begin your own transformation.

Craig shares his powerful personal story — from the high-pressure world of Wall Street to becoming a bestselling author and thought leader — and how rewiring his own mindset through intentional neuroplasticity led him to a more meaningful, purpose-driven life.
Together, we unpack the science and strategy behind reinvention, mindset shifts, and conscious connection — and how you can apply these tools to build authentic relationships, overcome imposter syndrome, and unlock mental resiliencefor personal and professional growth.

How to move from fear-based decisions to intentional, brain-directed change


The daily habits Craig used to transform his life — and how you can use them too

Description: Do you feel exhausted even after a whole night’s sleep or a seemingly restful weekend? You might unknowingly be caught in mindless habits slowly wearing you down. In this episode, Jessica breaks down five common, sneaky habits that drain your mental and physical energy—from chaotic multitasking to overstimulation from tech and shallow breathing. These aren’t just bad habits—they’re signs your mind is running on empty.
Tune in to learn:

Why your messy desk might be stressing you out more than you realize

How "milkshake multitasking" scrambles your focus

The surprising science behind why doing nothing is actually doing something powerful

Simple tools like "thinker moments" and deep breathing to reboot your mind and restore energy


These quick neuroscience-backed tips will help you stop the spiral of overwhelm, create calm, and start feeling like yourself again—even when life isn’t perfect.

      <title>How Dopamine Hijacks Your Mind (And How to Take It Back)</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/how-dopamine-hijacks-your-mind-and-how-to-take-it-back</link>

Description: Dopamine isn’t just the “feel-good” chemical—it’s your brain’s motivation engine. In this episode, I unpack the real science behind dopamine, debunk common myths, and reveal how modern life hijacks your brain’s reward system. Learn how to take back control using the Neurocycle method and start rewiring your brain for focus, drive, and long-term fulfillment. It’s not about detoxing dopamine—it’s about resetting it, training your mind to crave what truly serves you.

Are FOBO (Fear of Better Options) and FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) running your life? The constant chase for the “best” choice can leave you mentally drained, stuck in decision paralysis, and dissatisfied—even when you do decide. In this episode, we break down Barry Schwartz’s Paradox of Choice and uncover the hidden mental costs of overchoice. Learn four powerful strategies—including pre-deciding, setting digital boundaries, and using the Neurocycle—to clear the chaos, simplify decisions, and take back control of your mind. Tune in and start thinking deeply, living intentionally, and hacking your brain for a better life!

      <title>Soft Life: The Science of Thriving Without the Hustle</title>

Is hustle culture crushing your well-being? It’s time to rethink success. In this episode, we dive into the ‘Soft Life’—a movement that isn’t about laziness but radical self-preservation. Learn how rejecting burnout, prioritizing rest, and rewiring your brain can lead to sustainable happiness. I’ll share personal insights, neuroscience-backed strategies, and practical ways to step off the productivity treadmill. Ready to redefine success on your terms? Let’s do it together.

      <title>The Right Kind of Optimism: Balancing Hope with Realism</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/the-right-kind-of-optimism-balancing-hope-with-realism</link>
      <description>Pre-order my new book here and get over $900 worth of amazing bonuses (and a chance to work 1:1 with me!): https://helpinahurrybook.com/
You’ve probably heard me talk about being *wired for love*, but did you know that optimism isn’t just about being positive all the time? That’s not realistic! In this episode, I dive into the science of optimism—how it shapes our brains, boosts resilience, and even improves our health. But here’s the catch: the *right* kind of optimism isn’t just about seeing the bright side—it’s about balancing hope with realism (and yes, even a little bit of pessimism!). I’ll share practical tips to help you develop a mindset that fuels growth, problem-solving, and real success. Let’s find that *Goldilocks* sweet spot together!

      <title>Embrace Your Mortality to Truly Live</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/embrace-your-mortality-to-truly-live</link>

New Year's resolutions? Overdone. Instead, imagine your deathbed. Inspired by a Wall Street Journal article on Panera Bread founder Ron Schaich, this episode explores the power of a premortem—a life audit that ensures you won’t wait until the end to decide if you’re proud of your life. From Buddhist teachings to Oliver Burkeman’s Four Thousand Weeks, I share how this practice reshaped my own priorities after a personal tragedy. What can you do in the next five years that you’ll respect looking back from your deathbed? Tune in for a perspective shift that just might change your life.

      <title>Loneliness Isn't the Problem—Your Thoughts Are</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/loneliness-isnt-the-problemyour-thoughts-are</link>

Did you know that ruminating on loneliness is more linked to depression than actual loneliness? In this episode, we dive into the science of QZE—your brain's constant state of growth based on what you focus on—and how to shift your thoughts in the right direction. Learn how a simple "QZE Mindshift" using the Neurocycle can break the rumination-depression cycle and transform loneliness into meaningful connection. Tune in for practical steps and the surprising power of talking to strangers.
Don’t forget to rate, review, and share this episode—it truly helps the show grow.

it’s time for some real talk. In this episode, I dive into a topic that hits close to home for so many of us — childhood trauma and how it shapes who we are today. Let’s face it, what we experience when we're young leaves a lasting impact on our mental, emotional, and even physical health. But here's the thing: just focusing on the bad stuff can keep us stuck in the past.
I break down the groundbreaking research on Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and how they’re linked to long-term health issues. But I also shine a light on something just as important — Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs) and how they can help heal and build resilience, even if you've had a rough start in life.
Healing isn’t about ignoring the negative, but it’s also not about getting lost in it. I share practical tips like balancing your memories of the past and practicing the 3:1 thought ratio — a powerful tool to help shift your mindset when you're spiraling. Trust me, it works.
This conversation isn’t about pretending everything is perfect or magically fixing deep-rooted pain overnight. It’s about finding hope, healing, and rewriting your story in a way that empowers you to move forward. Let's tap into that incredible strength we all have and find balance on this journey.

      <title>Why being kind beats being nice every time</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/why-being-kind-beats-being-nice-every-time</link>
      <description>Pre-order my new book here and get over $900 worth of amazing bonuses (and a chance to work 1:1 with me!): https://helpinahurrybook.com/
In this episode, we explore the profound difference between kindness and niceness. While niceness often prioritizes comfort and approval, kindness is rooted in genuine care, bravery, and authenticity. Discover why being kind—not just nice—fosters trust, deeper connections, and long-term growth.
You’ll also learn about the science of kindness, from its biochemical benefits like releasing dopamine and oxytocin to its proven impact on mental health. Plus, I’ll share practical tips for incorporating kindness into your daily routine, including the ideal ratio of compliments to criticisms (hint: it’s 5.6:1!) and how acts of kindness can create a ripple effect of well-being.

In this episode, Cultivating Calm When Feeling Triggered, we explore how you can become that guiding hand for yourself. Packed with science-backed strategies and personal insights, this episode will empower you to respond thoughtfully instead of reacting impulsively.
Highlights include:


"Isn't This Interesting" Technique: Learn how a simple 60-second pause can create space for calm and insight, turning triggering moments into opportunities for growth.

The Power of Immediate Gratitude: Discover how practicing gratitude for even the smallest things can shift your mind into healing theta and learning gamma brainwaves, rewiring your perspective.

Trigger Sips: A breathing technique designed to soothe your nervous system and bring clarity in moments of distress.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/how-to-persevere-despite-everything-with-ryan-zofay</link>
      <description>Ryan’s story is truly inspiring. Despite facing challenges like addiction, incarceration, and dropping out of school in the 7th grade, he persevered, eventually graduating high school. Today, with 22 years of sobriety under his belt, he started We Level Up, a 9-figure drug and alcohol rehab business that employs over 600 people and impacts more than 10,000 lives each year. Ryan’s mission is to inspire and empower others through coaching and mentorship, sharing the same compassion that transformed his own life.

      <title>Your Mind's Many Voices: Richard Schwartz on the Power of Internal Family Systems</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/your-minds-many-voices-richard-schwartz-on-the-power-of-inte</link>
      <description>In this episode I interview Richard C Schwartz, the creator of Internal Family Systems (IFS). IFS is a highly effective, evidence-based therapeutic model that de-pathologizes the multipart personality. We discuss:


How he came to develop this system and how it is helping millions around the world 

How the mind is naturally multiple and that is a good thing.

How IFS creates inner and outer connectedness by helping people first access their Self and, from that core, come to understand and heal their parts. 

How It is also a way of understanding personal and intimate relationships and stepping into life with the 8 Cs: confidence, calm, compassion, courage, creativity, clarity, curiosity, and connectedness.

        <![CDATA[<p>In this episode I interview Richard C Schwartz, the creator of Internal Family Systems (IFS). IFS is a highly effective, evidence-based therapeutic model that de-pathologizes the multipart personality. We discuss:</p><p><br></p><ul>
<li>How he came to develop this system and how it is helping millions around the world </li>
<li>How the mind is naturally multiple and that is a good thing.</li>
<li>How IFS creates inner and outer connectedness by helping people first access their Self and, from that core, come to understand and heal their parts. </li>
<li>How It is also a way of understanding personal and intimate relationships and stepping into life with the 8 Cs: confidence, calm, compassion, courage, creativity, clarity, curiosity, and connectedness.</li>

      <title>Toxic Productivity </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/toxic-productivity</link>
      <description>In this episode I interview psychotherapist Israa Nasir about all things toxic productivity: the signs and how to heal from it. We also discuss:

 Productivity isn’t about managing time, but rather how you manage your emotions

A radical reimagining of what productivity means

Dynamics that keep us constantly busy, but never satisfied such as; self-worth, shame, social comparison, burnout, and perfectionism

Ways we can focus on “being” rather than “doing” to embrace a healthier and happier lifestyle

Recognizing the emotional patterns that drive our toxic productivity habits

Cultivating a healthier perspective on achievement to understand, manage, and shift our intense emotions 

Creating sustainable habits for reaching goals that are authentically meaningful to us

      <title>Tapping to heal trauma, PTSD, and physical health struggles (With Dawson Church)</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/tapping-to-heal-trauma-ptsd-and-physical-health-struggles-wi</link>
      <description>In this interview I interview bestselling author and renown scientist Dawson Church on how gene expression is influenced by emotions, how to cultivate peak states so our brains rapidly rewire themselves for happiness, and how to use Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT acupressure tapping) to manage trauma, PTSD, and physical health struggles. Dawson also takes us through a helpful tapping exercise.

      <title> Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of Grief (with David Kessler)</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/finding-meaning-the-sixth-stage-of-grief-with-david-kessler</link>
      <description>Download Neurocycle, the app that helps you heal and stay healed: https://www.neurocycle.app/
In this episode I interview David Kessler, one of the world’s foremost experts on grief and loss. We discuss the stages of grief, how anger can actually be a good thing while grieving, how to begin moving though grief, and so much more.
His experience with thousands of people on the edge of life and death has taught him the secrets to living a happy and fulfilled life––even after life’s tragedies. He's the author of six bestselling books, including Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of Grief, while his first book, The Needs of The Dying, received praise from Mother Teresa. On October 1, he'll release the Finding Meaning Workbook, filled with self-reflective exercises, navigation techniques for complicated grief, and tools for guilt, rumination, and overwhelming feelings.

      <title>Breaking cycle of low energy, anxiety, and fear by harnessing the power of your heart (with Kimberly Snyder)</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/cleaning-up-your-mental-mess-with-dr-caroline-leaf/episodes/breaking-cycle-of-low-energy-anxiety-and-fear-by-harnessing-</link>

Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and stuck in a cycle of low energy, anxiety, and fear? There is a powerful, often overlooked solution to these challenges: the hidden power within your heart.
For centuries, ancient wisdom has recognized the heart as a power center, a gateway to our highest potential. Modern science now confirms that this “heart brain” significantly influences our physical and emotional well-being, as well as our perceptions and thoughts.
In this episode I interview  New York Times bestseller, and one of my dear friends, Kimberly Snyder about the secret to harnessing your heart’s intelligence. Combining ancient wisdom with cutting-edge science on heart-brain communication, Kimberly offers transformative insights to help you deeply connect to your heart’s power. This episode will lead you through five stages to awaken the vast intelligence and power of your heart.

Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and stuck in a cycle of low energy, anxiety, and fear? There is a powerful, often overlooked solution to these challenges: the hidden power within your heart.
For centuries, ancient wisdom has recognized the heart as a power center, a gateway to our highest potential. Modern science now confirms that this “heart brain” significantly influences our physical and emotional well-being, as well as our perceptions and thoughts.
In this episode I interview  New York Times bestseller, and one of my dear friends, Kimberly Snyder about the secret to harnessing your heart’s intelligence. Combining ancient wisdom with cutting-edge science on heart-brain communication, Kimberly offers transformative insights to help you deeply connect to your heart’s power. This episode will lead you through five stages to awaken the vast intelligence and power of your heart.

      <title>Empowering Vs. Enabling Toxic Behavior</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Empowering-Vs--Enabling-Toxic-Behavior-e2n6rod</link>
      <description>SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I discuss the difference between enabling and empowering someone. Simply put, enabling is doing something challenging for someone else, while empowering someone means helping and supporting them as they complete the challenging task. Think of those school projects you did as a child; enabling is your mom doing the whole project for you, while empowering is your mom helping you do your own school project.

In this episode I explore this and more with Jean-Philippe Courtois, the Executive Vice President and President of Microsoft Global Sales, and the co-founder of Live for Good, a French association that aims to help young leaders develop their social or environmental projects.

      <title>Moving Though Regret</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Moving-Though-Regret-e2m9eh2</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk about how uncontrolled regret can affect us mentally and physically, and what we can do to learn how to manage our regrets and make them work for us and not against us. This is a replay of a Neurolive webinar I did on my app. For the full webinar AD-free, please see Neurocycle.app or look for Neurocycle on the App Store or Google Play.

Unmanaged regret can make us feel like we are truly wading through a swamp with no end in sight. It is one of those emotions that is so crippling that it can be hard to get through the day, let alone move forward or heal. It is so easy to feel like we are drowning in our “darkest moments”.

      <itunes:summary>In this podcast I talk about how uncontrolled regret can affect us mentally and physically, and what we can do to learn how to manage our regrets and make them work for us and not against us. This is a replay of a Neurolive webinar I did on my app. For the full webinar AD-free, please see Neurocycle.app or look for Neurocycle on the App Store or Google Play.

Unmanaged regret can make us feel like we are truly wading through a swamp with no end in sight. It is one of those emotions that is so crippling that it can be hard to get through the day, let alone move forward or heal. It is so easy to feel like we are drowning in our “darkest moments”.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Its-ok-not-to-be-ok-e2lfr9s</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk about the 100% happiness fallacy, and why learning how how to embrace your pain and rewrite your story is an important part of being truly happy. This is a replay of a Neurolive webinar I did on my app. For the full webinar AD-free, please see Neurocycle.app or look for Neurocycle on the App Store or Google Play.

Does it feel to you like you must be happy all the time? Often, it feels like happiness and being positive is touted as the wonder drug to solve our problems. It is easy to feel like there is something wrong with you if you are not as happy as other people seem to be! Yes, being happy and optimistic ways can have a positive impact on our mind, brain and body, but thinking happy thoughts doesn't just eliminate whatever we are going through.

Yes, being happy and optimistic ways can have a positive impact on our mind, brain and body, but thinking happy thoughts doesn't just eliminate whatever we are going through. </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Sponsors helping make this podcast possible: </p><p><strong>-PURITY WOODS: Purity Woods is currently offering 17% off sitewide but we have an additional 10% discount for our listeners for a total savings of 27%!

      <title>Confronting the “good girl” trap with Elise Loehnen</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Confronting-the-good-girl-trap-with-Elise-Loehnen-e2lb7an</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk to bestselling author and podcast host Elise Loehnen about being a woman in today’s world, the price we as women pay to be “good” and “on our best behavior”, how this impacts our mental wellbeing, and so much more!

-Apollo Neuro: To get $50 off your device, just go to apolloneuro.com/drleaf.  

Elise is also the author of the New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good. This incredible book “weaves together history, memoir, and cultural criticism to explore the ways patriarchy lands in the bodies of women and embeds itself in our consciousness—and what we then police in ourselves and in each other”.  It is about the way we as women are programmed by culture and society to adhere to certain ideas about “goodness”. in many ways, women, from young are programmed to be on their best behavior, while men are programmed to be powerful, which affects all parts of a woman’s life.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Screen-time-is-not-as-bad-as-we-think-e2l74nd</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk about screen time, sleep and what the research really tells us about technology use before bed. This is a replay of a Neurolive webinar I did on my app. For the full webinar AD-free, please see Neurocycle.app look for Neurocycle on the App Store or Google Play.

As technology advances, our sleep duration decreases. Or, so we have been told. But, are these two phenomena directly connected? And does this apply to all age groups? When it comes to our circadian rhythm, is screen time always a bad thing?

      <title>Amino acids &amp; mental health: the surprising connection</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Amino-acids--mental-health-the-surprising-connection-e2kqg74</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk to Angelo Keely, co-founder and CEO of Kion Aminos, about the role protein plays in our mental and physical health, why amino acids are important, and how to strengthen your mind, brain, and body and increase your longevity!

After a near-death experience in his late teens, Angelo decided that taking charge of his own health should play an integral role in his life. He eventually started a new business based on his own experiences and his passion to help people improve their wellbeing and live their best life, called Kion Aminos.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/The-Age-of-Magical-Overthinking-e2khfi5</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk to linguist, bestselling author and podcast host Amanda Montell about how cognitive biases impact the way we think about and show up in the world, how easy it is to fall into magical thinking, how impactful our perceptions are, why we tend to stay in bad relationships, and so much more!

Amanda Montell is a New York Times-bestselling author and iHeart Radio Award-winning podcaster. Her nonfiction books include Cultish, Wordslut, and The Age of Magical Overthinking—an instant New York Times Bestseller 
A big part of Amanda’s work and her latest book The Age of Magical Overthinking is trying to answer the question that, even with so much information at our fingertips, why does the world make less and less sense? In many ways, our innate human superstitions and irrational decision-making, which in may have served us well in the past, clashes with the information age, mass loneliness and the capitalistic pressure to know everything under the sun, which exacerbates many cognitive biases we have in the digital age.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/The-dangers-of-black--white-thinking-e2k4n5h</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk about how to move beyond black and white thinking and expand your mind. This is a replay of a Neurolive webinar I did on my app. For the full webinar AD-free, please see Neurocycle.app.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking that there is only a right or wrong way think, with no in-between? This is called black and white thinking, and even though it’s pretty common, it can make us feel frustrated and stuck. Life exists on a spectrum, which means that sometimes we have to embrace the grey areas in between all that black and white!Our sponsors helping make this episode possible: -Betterhelp: Get it off your chest, with BetterHelp.

      <title>The connection between Lyme disease and mental health struggles</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/The-connection-between-Lyme-disease-and-mental-health-struggles-e2je7ff</link>
      <description>In this episode, I interview filmmaker and advocate Lindsey Keys about how Lyme disease affects mental health, it's symptoms, and how to manage it. Chronic Lyme disease is still not recognized by many doctors, even though many people around the globe are suffering, which is why Lindsey refers to it as the “quiet epidemic”. 

Watch Lindsey's documentary here: https://www.thequietepidemic.com

      <itunes:subtitle>&lt;p&gt;In this episode, I interview filmmaker and advocate Lindsey Keys about how Lyme disease affects mental health, it&amp;#39;s symptoms, and how to manage it.

      <title>The scandalous but genius Mother of the Mind-Body Revolution</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/The-scandalous-but-genius-Mother-of-the-Mind-Body-Revolution-e2j4otl</link>
      <description>In this podcast I interview bestselling author and journalist Pamela Ryckman about her new book, Candace Pert: Genius, Greed, and Madness in the World of Science, Pamela talks about the life and career of one of the leading researchers of the mind, brain and body connection, the renowned neuropharmacologist Candace Pert. As Pamela notes, she played pivotal roles in major movements in both science and politics.

Unfortunately, she was sabotaged by mentors and colleagues keen to profit from her brilliance. But, as Pamela discusses in her book, Candace also became tainted, “believing that her noble ends would justify devious means.”

      <title>The benefits of snoozing your alarm clock</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/The-benefits-of-snoozing-your-alarm-clock-e2id70o</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk about the benefits of snoozing! This is a replay of a Neurolive webinar I did on my app. For the full webinar AD-free, please see neurocycle.app.

We have been told hitting the snooze button is a bad habit. But is it? Recently, I read an article in Scientific American that talk about how snoozing can actually be good for us! A growing body of recent research says that snoozing is not the be all and end all that we have been told it is. In some research, there is actually no difference in health outcomes for chronic snoozers and non-snoozers!

      <title>5 second strategy to change your life</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/5-second-strategy-to-change-your-life-e2hl5h6</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk to bestselling author and top podcast host Mel Robbins about her book The High 5 Habit, the brain-mind-body connection, building self-confidence, and so much more! The high 5 habit is a simple yet profound tool that can change your attitude, your mindset, and behavior. It can help you dig yourself out of a mental hole when you are feeling down or depressed. All you have to do, when standing in front of a mirror in the morning, is give your reflection a high 5, no matter how you feel in the moment. Instead of berating your reflection, or turning away from it, this little action helps shift your mind in a different direction. It helps break apart decides of subconscious programming and helps your brain create new programming that helps your brain change how you see yourself and what you are capable of.

      <itunes:summary>In this podcast I talk to bestselling author and top podcast host Mel Robbins about her book The High 5 Habit, the brain-mind-body connection, building self-confidence, and so much more! The high 5 habit is a simple yet profound tool that can change your attitude, your mindset, and behavior. It can help you dig yourself out of a mental hole when you are feeling down or depressed. All you have to do, when standing in front of a mirror in the morning, is give your reflection a high 5, no matter how you feel in the moment. Instead of berating your reflection, or turning away from it, this little action helps shift your mind in a different direction. It helps break apart decides of subconscious programming and helps your brain create new programming that helps your brain change how you see yourself and what you are capable of.

      <title>The Friendship Recession</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/The-Friendship-Recession-e2h73cm</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk about the importance of friendships, and how they can impact our mental health. Friendships are a beautiful part of life that contribute so much value to our lives, in so many wonderful ways. However, in recent years, researchers have noticed a decline in people’s social circles and number of friends. They have attributed this decline to many reasons, including the recent COVID pandemic, which left us more isolated and disconnected, and the higher cost of living, which means that more and more of use spend less time hanging out with loved ones and more time working to survive.

      <title>How to solidify healthy new habits</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-to-solidify-healthy-new-habits-e2h184a</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk about the importance of step 5 in my Neurocycle process: the active reach. This is a replay of a Neurolive webinar I did on my app. For the full AD-FREE episode please see neurocycle.app. 

In case you haven’t listened to any of my other podcasts or read any of my books or research, the Neurocycle is a way to harness our thinking power that I have developed and researched over the past three decades (I discuss this in detail in my book Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess and my app Neurocycle). It has 5 steps. The first step is to 1. gather awareness of how we feel mentally and physically and our perspective when we are dealing with a past wound. The second step is to 2. reflect on how we feel. Then we 3. write down our reflections to help organize our thinking. The fourth step is to 4. recheck: think about what our thoughts and feelings are trying to tell us. What does it say about what happened to us? What is our “antidote”— how will we work through how our thoughts are affecting us? Lastly, do the 5. active reach. This is a thought or action we need to practice daily to help us reconceptualize what we thought about in the previous step. What we are going to do each day to give ourselves the time and mental space needed to deal with what is bothering us and turn our destructive thoughts into a constructive future?

What does it say about what happened to us? What is our “antidote”— how will we work through how our thoughts are affecting us? Lastly, do the &lt;strong&gt;5.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;active reach&lt;/strong&gt;. This is a thought or action we need to practice daily to help us reconceptualize what we thought about in the previous step. What we are going to do each day to give ourselves the time and mental space needed to deal with what is bothering us and turn our destructive thoughts into a constructive future? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🚨Get 15% OFF Brain-Ee bundle here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://drleaf.com &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;📲Get 20% off my brain detox app with code NEUROCYCLE20 (only for first-time web subscriptions): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://web.neurocycle.app/AuthSplash ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;💡OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Oneskin: &lt;strong&gt;No matter the season, you can keep your skin looking and feeling healthy with OneSkin.

      <itunes:summary>In this podcast I talk about the importance of step 5 in my Neurocycle process: the active reach. This is a replay of a Neurolive webinar I did on my app. For the full AD-FREE episode please see neurocycle.app. 

In case you haven’t listened to any of my other podcasts or read any of my books or research, the Neurocycle is a way to harness our thinking power that I have developed and researched over the past three decades (I discuss this in detail in my book Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess and my app Neurocycle). It has 5 steps. The first step is to 1. gather awareness of how we feel mentally and physically and our perspective when we are dealing with a past wound. The second step is to 2. reflect on how we feel. Then we 3. write down our reflections to help organize our thinking. The fourth step is to 4. recheck: think about what our thoughts and feelings are trying to tell us. What does it say about what happened to us? What is our “antidote”— how will we work through how our thoughts are affecting us? Lastly, do the 5. active reach.

      <title>How to create peace in chaos</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-to-create-peace-in-chaos-e2gsq1f</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk about how to find peace amid the chaos of life.  Every so often, I feel like my peace is threatened, especially when faced with multiple, competing demands at the same time, mixed in with relationship struggles or concern for a loved one. It doesn’t help that there is so much going on in the world around—it is easy to feel overwhelmed and like everything is a mess!

      <title>The problem with "time heals all"</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/The-problem-with-time-heals-all-e2g8t5e</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk about the problem with the phrase “time heals all”.  There are so many phrases that we use without really thinking of their impact until it hits us—we are in a place where we experience first-hand the pain that a blithe statement, meant as comfort, can cause, even something as simple as “time heals all”. So why does the phrase “time heals all wounds” feel so frustrating and untrue at certain times in our lives?

In this podcast I talk about why curiosity is great for our mind and brain health. Curiosity helps you expand your life experiences, move forward, grow, improve your autonomy, change your brain health for the better, learn to process what you go through, and can increase your wellbeing and longevity. It helps you develop a deeper and richer understanding of yourself, your thoughts, your mental and emotional wellbeing, and the world around you.

      <title>Befriending your intrusive thoughts</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Befriending-your-intrusive-thoughts-e2f2cfn</link>
      <description>In this podcast I talk about how you can save yourself from the intrusive thoughts that are affecting you. 
It is important to realize that you are your mind, and your mind runs your brain and body. This means that you have a lot of control over your life. So, even though you are the one who has to sit with the thoughts that make you feel so much pain or frustration that you will do anything to avoid them, that you are the one who has to deal with those “would have, should have, could have, if only” thoughts that affect your wellbeing, that you are the one who has to hear the endless round of shame and hatred in your head that makes you think less of yourself, and that you are the one being crippled by all those intrusive thoughts, you also have the power to change ALL of this.

      <itunes:subtitle>&lt;p&gt;In this podcast I talk about how you can save yourself from the intrusive thoughts that are affecting you. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is important to realize that&lt;strong&gt; you are your mind&lt;/strong&gt;, and your mind runs your brain and body. This means that you have a lot of control over your life. So, even though you are the one who has to sit with the thoughts that make you feel so much pain or frustration that you will do anything to avoid them, that you are the one who has to deal with those “&lt;em&gt;would have, should have, could have, if only” &lt;/em&gt;thoughts that affect your wellbeing, that you are the one who has to hear the endless round of shame and hatred in your head that makes you think less of yourself, and that you are the one being crippled by all those intrusive thoughts, you also have the power to change ALL of this. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jon my annual Brain Detox Challenge here: &lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/pages/brain-detox-challenge#?utm_medium=sms&amp;utm_source=attentive&amp;utm_campaign=Message-01-16-24-10:28"&gt;⁠⁠⁠https://drleaf.com/pages/brain-detox-challenge#?utm_medium=sms&amp;amp;utm_source=attentive&amp;amp;utm_campaign=Message-01-16-24-10:28⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🚨Get 15% OFF Brain-Ee bundle here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://drleaf.com⁠⁠⁠   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;📲Get 20% off my brain detox app with code NEUROCYCLE20 (only for first-time web subscriptions): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://web.neurocycle.app/AuthSplash⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;💡OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-&lt;strong&gt;BiOptimizer’s Magnesium Breakthrough: Don’t miss out on the most relaxing sleep ever with Magnesium Breakthrough!

      <description>Jon my annual Brain Detox Challenge here: ⁠https://drleaf.com/pages/brain-detox-challenge#?utm_medium=sms&amp;utm_source=attentive&amp;utm_campaign=Message-01-16-24-10:28⁠

In this podcast I talk about why it is okay if things are not good or happy all the time, and how our “social media” expectations can impact our mental health.
We all know instinctively that things can’t be good all the time. No one’s life is perfect, regardless of what we may see on social media or what we hear or see as we go about our lives. 
I think we are all guilty of this—I know I am! Have you ever just looked at someone’s social media post or thought, why isn't this happening in my life? What am I doing wrong? Why do good things like this never happen to me? And, if we continue down this rabbit hole, we can feel worse and worse about our lives, which affects our mental health. It is important to remember that whatever we think about the most grows, and whatever we grow the most into our networks will drive us!

      <title>Toxic Positivity</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Toxic-Positivity-e2ef5kk</link>
      <description>Jon my annual Brain Detox Challenge here: https://drleaf.com/pages/brain-detox-challenge#?utm_medium=sms&amp;utm_source=attentive&amp;utm_campaign=Message-01-16-24-10:28

In this podcast I talk about the negative effects of “toxic positivity”, and why we don’t have to be happy or positive all the time. 
Although this may sound counterintuitive, too much positivity can be toxic. It can harm people who are going through difficult times, and make them feel ashamed for experiencing normal human emotions like sadness, grief, depression, anger, and so on. If someone is made to feel that things have got to be positive all the time, then they may think that if they feel bad in some way, there must be something wrong with them, which can exacerbate their mental distress at a time when they need support and community.

      <title>3 Tips to Live a Good Life (from a centenarian!)</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/3-Tips-to-Live-a-Good-Life-from-a-centenarian-e2dc2op</link>
      <description>In this episode, I share 3 scientific strategies to live a good AND long life! This is the subject of so many books and conversations, but in this episode I wanted to focus on Dr. Howard Tucker, who is currently 101 years old, and who was named by the Guinness World Book of Records as the world’s oldest practicing doctor. Who better to learn about longevity than from someone who is 101 old and still living the good life, and who is in fact still actively working as a doctor?

      <description>In this podcast I talk to author, intergenerational trauma expert, and psychologist Dr. Mariel Buqué about the impacts of intergenerational trauma, her amazing new book Break the Cycle, how to find healing and peace in every area of your life, and so much more!

Dr. Mariel is an Afro-Dominican psychologist. She received her doctorate in counseling psychology from Columbia University, where she also trained as a fellow in holistic mental health. She is a world-renowned intergenerational trauma expert and the author of the book Break the Cycle: A Guide to Healing Intergenerational Trauma.

      <title>How to Be the Love You Seek with Dr. Nicole LePera</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-to-Be-the-Love-You-Seek-with-Dr--Nicole-LePera-e2ckoi2</link>
      <description>In this episode I interview Dr. Nicole LePera on how to heal your relationships, beginning with the one you have with yourself. 
Whether you struggle to maintain the kinds of relationships you want or are facing a specific challenge with a spouse, partner, parent, sibling, child, friend, or colleague—Dr. LePera teaches us how to break painful cycles and reconnect with the wisdom, appreciation, and compassion that lives in each of our hearts. It is our heart’s innate capacity to love that is the true source of all healing. When we tap into that power, we can become the love we seek.

      <title>Finding happiness in the mess with Drybar co-founder Alli Webb</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Finding-happiness-in-the-mess-with-Drybar-co-founder-Alli-Webb-e2c108j</link>
      <description>In this episode, I talk to DryBar founder and best-selling author Alli Webb about finding joy when your life is a mess, how to find yourself again after a crisis, dealing with imposter syndrome, and so much more!
When Drybar and its world-famous blowouts took off seemingly overnight, she found herself surrounded by celebrity clients like Zooey Deschanel, Jennifer Garner, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Julia Roberts. She was named to multiple prestigious business lists, published a New York Times bestselling book—all before she turned forty.
But it wasn't until her marriage fell apart, her teenage son entered rehab unexpectedly, and she no longer found meaning in the wildly successful business she had built that Alli realized she was spiraling into deep depression. She'd lost sight of what made her happy in favor of an aimless push to succeed above all. Something had to give.
Piece by piece, Alli began to reinvent her personal and professional life with the goal of accepting her messy truth. She learned how to embrace the honest in lieu of the perfect and realized that most of life happens somewhere in the middle, between the laughter and the tears.

      <itunes:subtitle>&lt;p&gt;In this episode, I talk to &lt;a href="https://www.drybar.com"&gt;DryBar&lt;/a&gt; founder and best-selling author Alli Webb about finding joy when your life is a mess, how to find yourself again after a crisis, dealing with imposter syndrome, and so much more!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When Drybar and its world-famous blowouts took off seemingly overnight, she found herself surrounded by celebrity clients like Zooey Deschanel, Jennifer Garner, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Julia Roberts. She was named to multiple prestigious business lists, published a &lt;em&gt;New York Times&lt;/em&gt; bestselling book—all before she turned forty.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But it wasn&amp;#39;t until her marriage fell apart, her teenage son entered rehab unexpectedly, and she no longer found meaning in the wildly successful business she had built that Alli realized she was spiraling into deep depression. She&amp;#39;d lost sight of what made her happy in favor of an aimless push to succeed above all. &lt;em&gt;Something&lt;/em&gt; had to give.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Piece by piece, Alli began to reinvent her personal and professional life with the goal of accepting her messy truth.

In this inspiring episode, I chat with SueEllen Mancini, the founder of Sad Girl Creamy in Los Angeles about how she found hope and healing with ice-cream! 
SueEllen Mancini knew something was wrong. She began dealing with mental health issues as early as age 14, and, by her 20’s things were just getting worse, So she sought help, amid a culture where discussing mental health issues in the open remained uncommon. This began her journey toward better mental health and spreading positive messages about awareness — a path that’s been paved with lots of ice cream - Sue-Ellen literally turned a mental health journey into ice cream joy and today she joins me to tell me how she did this

      <title>How to forgive yourself (with Josh Harris)</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-to-forgive-yourself-with-Josh-Harris-e29sjak</link>
      <description>SHOW DESCRIPTION: Curiosity is so important because challenging your beliefs is how the mind-brain connection is structured to work, which is neuroplasticity. So we should be constantly looking at ourselves deeply, really thinking about the why behind what we believe, say, and do, and working on questioning this and growing- this is mind management in action. So, when you find something is wrong with the beliefs you have held for so long, and that has basically defined you, how do you find the strength and direction to make these changes, how do you forgive yourself and not let the shame and guilt destroy you, how do deal with the loss of friends and family when you change. In today’s podcast, I talk with Josh Harris, former pastor and unpublished author of the book about purity culture, How to Kiss Dating Goodbye, about exactly this- and about the 100% change he made in his life. Just a note to the listeners, we experienced some tech issues toward the end of this podcast, so you might notice a shift in audio quality.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In today’s podcast, I talk with Dr Sara Kubric about understanding the the philosophical question that has been asked over the ages: who am I really? We dive into what the “self” really is, using practical analogies and metaphors. But more importantly, we talk about how you can change your “self” in this moment through taking responsibility and recognizing that our degree of freedom to grow our self will always match our degree of responsibility.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: It’s rare when you find someone who is a public figure and a celebrity and who is not only not scared to speak out on controversial issues, but also truly advocates for change - especially protecting our youth from false advertising that promotes body issues. Jameela Jamil is such a person and on today’s podcast we have a brilliant discussion on so many important mental health issues like body dysmorphia, her own more than 20-year struggle with anorexia, the energy draining and joy stealing this focus has, the pressure on women to live up to patriarchal standards, the influence of social media on our youth and so much more. Jameela is a British actress, model, and activist and BBC radio host. She gained widespread recognition in the TV series "The Good Place." In addition to her acting career, Jameela is known for her body positivity advocacy and campaigns against beauty standards and body shaming.
She co-founded the "I Weigh" movement and podcast, promoting self-worth beyond physical appearance, which she recently interviewed recently on. Jameela has been an outspoken advocate for inclusivity, mental health awareness, and LGBTQ+ rights and is an active voice in the fight against online bullying and misinformation.

In her new book Owning Our Struggles: A Path to Healing and Finding Community in a Broken World, Minaa talks about the power of collective healing. Adversity comes in many forms, and can make us feel alone in our pain, even years after the fact. But as Minaa observes, we can’t heal in isolation. The best way to move past individual trauma is through connection and community—healing ourselves and one another.Get Minaa's book here: https://www.minaab.com/booksRead the episode blog here for more insider tips: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-limitations-of-self-healing-with-minaa-bOFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS: -Kion Aminos: So, if you want to naturally boost energy, build lean muscle, and enhance athletic recovery, you need to get Kion Aminos.

      <title>The mental health strategies that made Kobe Bryant a champion - on and off the court</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/The-mental-health-strategies-that-made-Kobe-Bryant-a-champion---on-and-off-the-court-e28cvco</link>

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to author Eli Ihej about his new book, What Kobe Left Behind: The Playbook from an Extraordinary Life, what Kobe Bryant’s legacy can teach you about mental health and pursuing your purpose, how to become a champion in every area of your life, triumphing over adversity, and so much more!  
Even if you are not a basketball or sports fan, the story of Kobe has so much to offer. Over his lifetime, he learned techniques, skills and habits that allowed him to transcend his past and become victorious inside and outside the sports world. These skills can help anyone become their best selves—they can help us do so much more with what we are given and enhance our lives in so many ways.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I discuss the difference between enabling and empowering someone. Simply put, enabling is doing something challenging for someone else, while empowering someone means helping and supporting them as they complete the challenging task. Think of those school projects you did as a child; enabling is your mom doing the whole project for you, while empowering is your mom helping you do your own school project.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I discuss the difference between enabling and empowering someone. Simply put, enabling is doing something challenging for someone else, while empowering someone means helping and supporting them as they complete the challenging task. Think of those school projects you did as a child; enabling is your mom doing the whole project for you, while empowering is your mom helping you do your own school project.

      <title>How extreme heat affects the brain + how to prevent any damage</title>

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about keeping our brains and bodies healthy when it’s extremely hot outside. Although there still needs to be more research on how extreme temperatures affect the brain, they definitely have a negative impact with prolonged periods of heat exposure. Why? Temperature is one the main driver of chemical reactions, so changes in temperature affect the biochemistry of the brain and body.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about the importance of teaching your child about boundaries. This is part 2 of my series on parenting, boundaries, and mental health. Part one can be found here.
Whenever you, as a parent or caregiver, set a boundary, make sure that you always explain why in a way that your child will understand. Use the moment to model healthy boundaries for your child and teach them what a healthy boundary looks like, using language that encourages your child to think about the situation and what it means. Avoid using language that shuts them down such as saying “because I said so”, which will make the boundary feel more like a punishment than a teaching opportunity.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about the importance of teaching your child about boundaries. This is part 1 of a 2-part series on parenting, boundaries, and mental health.  
From the moment children are born, they are tied to their environment and the people within their environment. They are born into a community which they both shape and are shaped by.   
A child’s identity is closely tied to their community – their family, friends, and other acquaintances. Children develop a sense of who they are in relation to who they are with. This has both a huge potential for growth and connection and a huge potential for harm, which is why teaching your child how to have healthy relationships from a young age is so important for their mental and physical wellbeing.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about the importance of teaching your child about boundaries. This is part 1 of a 2-part series on parenting, boundaries, and mental health.  
From the moment children are born, they are tied to their environment and the people within their environment. They are born into a community which they both shape and are shaped by.   
A child’s identity is closely tied to their community – their family, friends, and other acquaintances. Children develop a sense of who they are in relation to who they are with. This has both a huge potential for growth and connection and a huge potential for harm, which is why teaching your child how to have healthy relationships from a young age is so important for their mental and physical wellbeing.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to Alicia, a concerned mother, about helping sensitive children manage their emotions. This is part of a series I am doing on questions you submitted for my new book on children’s mental health. 
This was Alicia’s question:
“How do I help a sensitive seven-year-old move on after they make a mistake? I have a very sensitive seven year old girl. She likes to follow the rules. However, she does from time to time need some course correction. When I do so, she instantly withdraws, and becomes very quiet and sad, often for a long amount of time. I have a hunch that she’s beating herself up about whatever mistake she made, and I would love some help figuring out how to help her receive correction without being so hard on herself.”

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to Alicia, a concerned mother, about helping sensitive children manage their emotions. This is part of a series I am doing on questions you submitted for my new book on children’s mental health. 
This was Alicia’s question:
“How do I help a sensitive seven-year-old move on after they make a mistake? I have a very sensitive seven year old girl. She likes to follow the rules. However, she does from time to time need some course correction. When I do so, she instantly withdraws, and becomes very quiet and sad, often for a long amount of time. I have a hunch that she’s beating herself up about whatever mistake she made, and I would love some help figuring out how to help her receive correction without being so hard on herself.”

To help our children develop their sense of autonomy and build identity, we as parents and caregivers need to know how to get involved in our children’s lives without smothering them. I know this can be hard at times, especially when we feel the need to constantly protect our children from all the hard things in life. However, if we try to do this, we can end up impacting their growth and mental resilience, which will affect their ability to learn how to manage and deal with the challenges of life. Read the blog here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-difference-between-safety-net-parenting-helicopter-parenting⁠Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleafOFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:-Manukora Honey: head to https://⁠MANUKORA.com/DRLEAF⁠ or use code DRLEAF, you’ll automatically get a free pack of honey sticks with your order - a $15 value.   -ButcherBox: For a limited time, ButcherBox is giving us a special deal!

“I'm part of an avid homeschooling community. Homeschooling moms like me tend to be "always on; always teaching." It can lead to schooling burnout, and it does! How can we give ourselves and our children a better balance between working our brain, resting our brain, and letting our brain play?”.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to Jessica, a concerned parent, about childhood trauma. This is part of a series I am doing on questions you submitted for my new book on children’s mental health.
This was Jessica’s question:  
“What happens to a child’s brain after they have survived Domestic Violence? How long does it take to reword their brain? Do they then have to fight wanting to use violence as an adult? Is it hereditary? My children and I are survivors of domestic violence and have been safe and free for 13 years. That being said, I’m wondering how long it takes for children (Now 15, 20, 24 and 26) to heal their brain?”

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to Jessica, a concerned parent, about childhood trauma. This is part of a series I am doing on questions you submitted for my new book on children’s mental health.
This was Jessica’s question:  
“What happens to a child’s brain after they have survived Domestic Violence? How long does it take to reword their brain? Do they then have to fight wanting to use violence as an adult? Is it hereditary? My children and I are survivors of domestic violence and have been safe and free for 13 years. That being said, I’m wondering how long it takes for children (Now 15, 20, 24 and 26) to heal their brain?”

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about embracing “messy” parenting. This is part 2 of my series on parenting. You can listen to part 1 here.  As I mentioned in part 1, it’s ok to be a “messy” parent. We need to normalize, not stigmatize, messy parenting. This means embracing our feelings and mistakes and learning from them, using them to grow and learn as parents. It means using our own struggles to help our children understand how to manage the “messiness” and challenges of life through example and open communication. Indeed, one of the best ways we can teach our children how to manage their mental health is by modeling how we deal with life’s difficulties, including how we parent them and how we embrace, process and manage our own mistakes.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Podcast-494-Its-time-to-embrace-messy-parenting-e2655uj</link>
      <description>Pre-order my new book HOW TO HELP YOUR CHILD CLEAN UP THEIR MENTAL MESS here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.mentallyresilientkids.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
+Pre-order before August 8 to get access to bonus content! 

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about embracing “messy” parenting. We all know that parenting is hard. As parents, we will make mistakes. We are only human, after all! As parents and guardians, it is important that we give ourselves permission to be what I call “messy”. This means embracing our feelings and mistakes and learning from them, using them to grow and learn as parents. It means using our own struggles to help our children understand how to manage the “messiness” and challenges of life through example and open communication. Indeed, one of the best ways we can teach our children how to manage their mental health is by modeling how we deal with life’s difficulties, including how we parent them and how we embrace, process and manage our own mistakes.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about embracing “messy” parenting. We all know that parenting is hard. As parents, we will make mistakes. We are only human, after all! As parents and guardians, it is important that we give ourselves permission to be what I call “messy”. This means embracing our feelings and mistakes and learning from them, using them to grow and learn as parents. It means using our own struggles to help our children understand how to manage the “messiness” and challenges of life through example and open communication. Indeed, one of the best ways we can teach our children how to manage their mental health is by modeling how we deal with life’s difficulties, including how we parent them and how we embrace, process and manage our own mistakes.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to Oyindamola, a concerned parent, about her preschooler’s emotional reactions and how to help him manage how he feels in the moment. This is part of a series I am doing on questions you submitted for my new book on children’s mental health.
This was Oyindamola’s question:  
“Why does my preschooler (4 years and 5 months) tend to cry at a range of issues which seem understandable e.g. stubbing his toe or spilling a meal to others less so such as, his nanny leaving before he could say bye, water touching his face during a shower (despite the fact this is part of the process every morning)? It could be said that these examples have in common a perceived lack of agency but they seem to vary in magnitude quite a lot. We try various things: listening to the issue in his own words, asking him to take deep breaths, acknowledging his feelings, and asking him to proffer solutions but sometimes it just doesn't seem to work.”

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about something great you can do with your children this summer: getting outside! This is part of my summer series on brain-building activities you can do with your children to help them build up their mental resilience and manage their mental health while having fun.
We all know that getting outside is great for our mental wellbeing. Just think of how you feel when you go for a walk in the sunshine or spend time reading at the beach. Nature has a way of calming us down mentally and physically.  
The same is true for our children. Playing outside is one of the best things they can do to boost their mental and physical wellbeing. This may seem obvious, but consider that the average American child spends 4-7 minutes a day in unstructured play outdoors and over 7 hours in front of a screen. This is a cause for concern, as research shows that that children should play outside for around 2-3 hours, or at minimum 20 minutes, a day for optimal mental and physical development. As much as modern technology has improved our lives, it should not replace the act of enjoying the outdoors and what nature has to offer.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to parent Hannah Baldwin about teaching her children mind management techniques. This is part of a series I am doing on questions you submitted for my new book on children’s mental health.
This was Hannah’s question: “My kids are 12, 10, and 8. I personally have been through extensive brain rewiring and parent accordingly to help my kids overcome toxic thought loops. However my 8 year old loops more often than not and is incredibly spiritually sensitive and is very empathic. I really believe her migraines are stress induced as they almost always follow a tough day at school, being bullied, or when she has had a day of high and happy emotions. While I try to implement as many calming and mind-management strategies as possible, I find myself completely exhausted and burned out as a result of trying to do the deeper mental work with her to help her stay mentally healthy and build resilience to and through tough emotional days. How do I help an empathic 8 year old navigate incredibly intense emotions from a vantage point of giving her tools to use that will help her mental health thrive long term?”.

However my 8 year old loops more often than not and is incredibly spiritually sensitive and is very empathic. I really believe her migraines are stress induced as they almost always follow a tough day at school, being bullied, or when she has had a day of high and happy emotions. While I try to implement as many calming and mind-management strategies as possible, I find myself completely exhausted and burned out as a result of trying to do the deeper mental work with her to help her stay mentally healthy and build resilience to and through tough emotional days. How do I help an empathic 8 year old navigate incredibly intense emotions from a vantage point of giving her tools to use that will help her mental health thrive long term?”.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read the blog here: &lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-myth-of-normal-with-dr-gabor-mate"&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/can-we-be-too-self-aware"&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/small-but-meaningful-daily-choices-to-make-yourself-happier-healthier"&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/why-eating-takeout-enjoying-dessert-is-good-for-your-mental-health"&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/4-tips-to-raise-empathic-children"&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/what-we-can-do-in-the-present-to-heal-our-past-protect-our-future-with-presidential-candidate-marianne-williamson"&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-letter-writing-can-make-your-child-more-mentally-resilient"&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-manage-move-past-unhealthy-family-relationships"&gt;⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-mental-health-benefits-of-unstructured-play-for-young-children"&gt;⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-help-your-child-navigate-intense-emotions"&gt;https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-help-your-child-navigate-intense-emotions&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Betterhelp: Visit &lt;a href="http://betterhelp.com/DRLEAF"&gt;BetterHelp.com/DRLEAF&lt;/a&gt; today to get 10% off your first month.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3:40 We as parents need to help ourselves too!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5:00 How to use mind management to handle the challenges of parenting&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;8:12 How to help a highly empathetic child manage their mind &amp;amp; emotions&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;13:00, 26:55 The importance of teaching your child mind management techniques&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Get my new book Cleaning up Your Mental Mess here: https://www.cleaningupyourmentalmess.com&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Get a free Cleaning up Your Mental Mess workbook when you subscribe to my weekly email at drleaf.com!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- Visit my website at https://drleaf.com for more free resources&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Instagram: @drcarolineleaf: https://www.instagram.com/drcarolineleaf/-&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Facebook: Dr. Caroline Leaf: https://www.facebook.com/drleaf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Twitter: @drcarolineleaf: https://twitter.com/DrCarolineLeaf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/drcarolineleaf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*DISCLAIMER: This podcast and blog are for educational purposes only and are not intended as medical advice.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about self-awareness, why it is helpful, and what happens when we become too self-aware.  As you have heard me say many times on this podcast, we need to self-regulate what we think, say and do. This is key to living a life of mind management and learning how to deal with the many ups and downs of life. However, it is possible to be too self-aware. This happens when we start trying to intellectualize away our feelings and emotions rather than learning from them. We have to feel so we can heal—trying to rationalize away how we experience life can be as harmful as suppressing or ignoring uncomfortable emotions.

        <![CDATA[<p>Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app</p><p><br></p><p>SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about self-awareness, why it is helpful, and what happens when we become too self-aware.  As you have heard me say many times on this podcast, we need to self-regulate what we think, say and do. This is key to living a life of mind management and learning how to deal with the many ups and downs of life. However, it is possible to be too self-aware. This happens when we start trying to intellectualize away our feelings and emotions rather than learning from them. <strong>We have to feel so we can heal</strong>—trying to rationalize away how we experience life can be as harmful as suppressing or ignoring uncomfortable emotions. </p><p><br></p><p>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-myth-of-normal-with-dr-gabor-mate">⁠</a><a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/can-we-be-too-self-aware">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/can-we-be-too-self-aware</a></p><p><br></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-<strong>Elo Health Smart Protein: Take out the guesswork and get the right amount of protein after every workout.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to renowned physician, speaker and bestselling author Dr. Gabor Maté about his latest book The Myth of Normal, common misconceptions of what makes us sick, how to manage childhood trauma, parenting and mental health, and so much more! Dr. Maté is highly sought after for his expertise on a range of topics including addiction, stress and childhood development. Rather than offering quick-fix solutions to these complex issues, Dr. Maté weaves together scientific research, case histories, and his own insights and experience to present a broad perspective that enlightens and empowers people to promote their own healing and that of those around them.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about why falling in love with your emotions is one of the best things you can do to improve your mental health! As you have heard me say many times before, we cannot run from or suppress our emotions. We need to get comfortable with feeling - even the emotions that don’t make us feel so great in the moment. We need to be okay with saying things like “I feel sad” or “I feel anxious”.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about why falling in love with your emotions is one of the best things you can do to improve your mental health! As you have heard me say many times before, we cannot run from or suppress our emotions. We need to get comfortable with feeling - even the emotions that don’t make us feel so great in the moment. We need to be okay with saying things like “I feel sad” or “I feel anxious”.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about how to improve your relationship, develop sexual intimacy, and increase your health and longevity through compromise. This is part 3 of my series on love, sex, relationships and wellbeing.  As I mentioned in parts 1 and 2 of this podcast, relationships can be incredibly challenging at times. But they are also incredibly rewarding and can have a beneficial effect on our mind, brain and body health, right down to the level of our telomeres, and can contribute to better longevity.

      <title>Podcast 475: How sorrow and longing make us whole</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Podcast-475-How-sorrow-and-longing-make-us-whole-e22nfet</link>
      <description>Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to bestselling author and speaker Susan Cain about sorrow and mental health, embracing bittersweet moments and feelings, how longing makes us whole, her amazing new book Bittersweet, and so much more! As Susan notes in her book, bittersweetness is a tendency to states of longing, poignancy, and sorrow; an acute awareness of passing time; and a curiously piercing joy at the beauty of the world. It recognizes that light and dark, birth and death—bitter and sweet—are forever paired.

As Susan notes in her book, bittersweetness is a tendency to states of longing, poignancy, and sorrow; an acute awareness of passing time; and a curiously piercing joy at the beauty of the world. It recognizes that light and dark, birth and death—bitter and sweet—are forever paired. </p><p><br>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-sex-can-improve-your-mind">⁠⁠⁠</a><a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/love-sex-your-mental-health">⁠</a><a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-beauty-benefits-of-bittersweet-moments">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-beauty-benefits-of-bittersweet-moments</a></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-Chime: tart making your financial dreams a reality with Chime.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about ways to improve your relationship, develop sexual intimacy, and increase your health and longevity. This is part 2 of my series on love, sex, relationships and wellbeing. As mentioned in part 1, safe, consensual sex in a loving relationship can help improve our health and wellbeing and even increase our longevity. But this is not just about sex. How well we interact with and relate to our partner will lay the foundation for a fulfilling and intimate relationship. Of course, this is easier said than done—as I am sure you know, relationships can be complicated! This is why I recommend creating rituals and routines in a relationship to improve sexual intimacy and overall health.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about relationships, communication, sex, and the mind. This is part 1 of a 3-part series. High-quality intimate relationships are good for our health—we all know this! But did you know that sexual intimacy is also good for us? I recently interviewed Dr. Elissa Epel about her work with telomeres and stress, and she mentioned that one of her most interesting and popular studies, published in 2017, was on a correlation she and her team found between longevity and safe and consensual sex. In this study, Dr. Epel and her team observed that couples that are more sexually intimate have longer telomeres, which contribute to our cellular health and longevity.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In today’s podcast I talk about dealing with draining people while protecting your mental health. Relationships are great and have many benefits, but they can also be challenging, especially when you have to deal with someone who is a drain on your mental energy and resources. Indeed, sometimes the most draining people can be family, friends, co-workers, and even children! It's okay to admit to yourself that you feel drained around someone. You don't have to add guilt to the mental and emotional strain you are already feeling, as this will only make you feel worse. But, once you recognize and honor your feelings, you also need to take steps to help manage the situation so that you can protect your mental health and relationships. We need to acknowledge how we feel to manage how we feel.

        <![CDATA[<p>Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app</p><p><br></p><p>SHOW DESCRIPTION: In today’s podcast I talk about dealing with draining people while protecting your mental health. Relationships are great and have many benefits, but they can also be challenging, especially when you have to deal with someone who is a drain on your mental energy and resources. Indeed, sometimes the most draining people can be family, friends, co-workers, and even children! It's okay to admit to yourself that you feel drained around someone. You don't have to add guilt to the mental and emotional strain you are already feeling, as this will only make you feel worse. But, once you recognize and honor your feelings, you also need to take steps to help manage the situation so that you can protect your mental health and relationships. We need to acknowledge how we feel to manage how we feel.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-recognize-deal-with-draining-people">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-recognize-deal-with-draining-people</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-Elo Health:  It’s time to start taking supplements that are tailored to YOU.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk with Dr. Will Cole about how shame and trauma impact your gut health and body, how to heal your mind, body and gut, and so much more. Dr. Will is a leading functional medicine expert who consults people around the world via webcam, having started one of the first functional medicine telehealth centers in the world. Named one of the top 50 functional and integrative doctors in the nation, Dr. Will specializes in clinically investigating underlying factors of chronic disease and customizing a functional medicine approach for thyroid issues, autoimmune conditions, hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, and brain problems. He is also the host of the popular The Art of Being Well podcast and bestselling author of Ketotarian, The Inflammation Spectrum, and the New York Times bestseller Intuitive Fasting. Dr. Will’s new book, Gut Feelings, continues his amazing work by exploring the relationship between our gut health, physical health and mental health, and what we can do to improve not only the health of our gut but also our lives. As he notes, this book is all about healing the shame-fueled relationship between what we eat and how we feel.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Podcast-466-How-forgiveness-changes-your-brain-e20ogh3</link>
      <description>Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about forgiveness and the mind. Forgiveness is more than just a word or action. It is something that that affects us mentally, emotionally and spiritually. It helps us heal n ways we are only just beginning to understand. This is due to the law of entanglement in quantum physics, which keeps everything in a relationship—toxic or otherwise—entangled, affecting each component. Forgiveness helps us sever the toxic hold someone who hurt us has over us. It helps us disconnect from the source of our pain and find true healing.

It helps us disconnect from the source of our pain and find true healing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read the blog here: &lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-forgiveness-changes-your-brain"&gt;https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-forgiveness-changes-your-brain&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chime: &lt;/strong&gt;Get started at chime.com/drleaf.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Qualia Mind: &lt;/strong&gt;Go to &lt;a href="http://neurohacker.com/DRLEAF"&gt;neurohacker.com/DRLEAF&lt;/a&gt; for $100 OFF, that’s only $39 a bottle and as a listener of Cleaning Up the Mental Mess use code DRLEAF at checkout for an extra 15% off your first purchase. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2:11 Why forgiveness is so important &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3:10, 8:05 Forgiveness &amp;amp; the law of entanglement &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;9:11 How forgiveness helps us heal&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;13:02, 17:20 How to forgive using mind management&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Get my new book Cleaning up Your Mental Mess here: https://www.cleaningupyourmentalmess.com&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Get a free Cleaning up Your Mental Mess workbook when you subscribe to my weekly email at drleaf.com!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- Visit my website at https://drleaf.com for more free resources&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Instagram: @drcarolineleaf: https://www.instagram.com/drcarolineleaf/-&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Facebook: Dr. Caroline Leaf: https://www.facebook.com/drleaf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Twitter: @drcarolineleaf: https://twitter.com/DrCarolineLeaf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/drcarolineleaf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*DISCLAIMER: This podcast and blog are for educational purposes only and are not intended as medical advice.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about forgiveness and the mind. Forgiveness is more than just a word or action. It is something that that affects us mentally, emotionally and spiritually. It helps us heal n ways we are only just beginning to understand. This is due to the law of entanglement in quantum physics, which keeps everything in a relationship—toxic or otherwise—entangled, affecting each component. Forgiveness helps us sever the toxic hold someone who hurt us has over us. It helps us disconnect from the source of our pain and find true healing.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast (#462) and blog, I talk about how to develop a healthy stress mindset. This is part 3 of my series on stress. You can listen to part 1 here and part 2 here. As I mentioned in part 1, chronic, unmanaged stress is directly linked to physical ill-health and mental health challenges. In fact, if we are constantly stressed about stress, it will become an obstacle on our pathway to dealing with life’s challenges.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to Angelo Keely, founder and CEO of Kion Aminos, about amino acids: what they are and why they are so important for a stronger mind, brain and body. From young, amino acids have played an important role in Angelo’s life. He grew up   in a health-conscious family where what you ate and how you exercised were incredibly important, including getting enough amino acids for better energy and post-workout recovery.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about how to develop a healthy stress mindset. This is part 2 of my series on stress. You can listen to part 1 here.
As I mentioned in part 1, chronic, unmanaged stress is directly linked to physical ill-health and mental health challenges. In fact, if we are constantly stressed about stress, it will become an obstacle on our pathway to dealing with life’s challenges. But, if stress is an inevitable part of life, is there a solution to this problem? Is there hope? Thankfully, there is! The key lies in how we choose to manage our stress. Changing our attitude towards stress is essential to healthy mental and physical self-care.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to mindful licensed marriage and family therapist Vienna Pharaon about trauma and family relationships, facing our origin wounds, how to unshackle ourselves from the past to find peace in the present, and so much more! In Vienna’s incredible new book, The Origins of You: How Breaking Family Patterns Can Liberate The Way We Live And Love, she talks about how, “armed with the knowledge about our past, we can actually rewire our programming to meaningfully improve our relationships and our lives, right now and in the future”. As Vienna points out, “it doesn’t matter whether you’ve been in therapy for decades, or whether therapy isn’t for you. It doesn’t matter if you have loads of memories from childhood, or struggle to remember anything at all. What matters is your willingness to look inside yourself, and your determination to find a new way forward”.

In Vienna’s incredible new book, The Origins of You: How Breaking Family Patterns Can Liberate The Way We Live And Love, she talks about how, “armed with the knowledge about our past, we can actually rewire our programming to meaningfully improve our relationships and our lives, right now and in the future”. As Vienna points out, “it doesn’t matter whether you’ve been in therapy for decades, or whether therapy isn’t for you. It doesn’t matter if you have loads of memories from childhood, or struggle to remember anything at all. What matters is your willingness to look inside yourself, and your determination to find a new way forward”.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about stress: what it is, how it can affect us, and how to develop a healthy stress mindset. This is part 1 of my series on stress. In part 2 and 3, I will discuss ways to develop a healthy stress mindset. Chronic, unmanaged stress is directly linked to physical ill-health and mental health challenges. In fact, if we are constantly stressed about stress, it will become an obstacle on our pathway to dealing with life’s challenges. So, what can we do? If stress is inevitable part of life, is there a solution to this problem? Is there hope? Thankfully, there is! The key lies in how we choose to manage our stress. Changing our attitude towards stress is essential to healthy mental and physical self-care.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about what happens when boundaries collide in relationships, and how to navigate tense situations. This is part 1 of a 2 part series. Boundaries are a hot topic these days. Many people post about the importance of boundaries, how to set them and how to respect them, all of which are important. Boundaries help us build stronger relationships with the people in our life. They help us increase our respect for ourselves as we learn how to recognize our own limits and protect our mental health, while acknowledging that other people also have their limits. Once we start setting our own boundaries and respecting other people’s boundaries, we tend to see a huge improvement in our own mental health and in our relationships. The more we set our own boundaries, the more we learn to understand and respect the boundaries of the people in our lives.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about what happens when boundaries collide in relationships, and how to navigate tense situations. This is part 1 of a 2 part series. Boundaries are a hot topic these days. Many people post about the importance of boundaries, how to set them and how to respect them, all of which are important. Boundaries help us build stronger relationships with the people in our life. They help us increase our respect for ourselves as we learn how to recognize our own limits and protect our mental health, while acknowledging that other people also have their limits. Once we start setting our own boundaries and respecting other people’s boundaries, we tend to see a huge improvement in our own mental health and in our relationships. The more we set our own boundaries, the more we learn to understand and respect the boundaries of the people in our lives.

      <title>Podcast 453: Is there a cure for intrusive thoughts?</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Podcast-453-Is-there-a-cure-for-intrusive-thoughts-e1uavft</link>

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about intrusive thoughts, and how to manage them using what I call “thinker moments”. Intrusive thinking is can be defined as uncontrollable, unwanted thoughts that we feel unable to resist. This kind of thinking is often a way of coping with an underlying, unresolved issue. It’s not always the most effective or sustainable way to deal with pain or trauma, but it’s a coping mechanism—a type of distraction you use to try to keep the source of your pain bearable, at least in the short term.

This kind of thinking is often a way of coping with an underlying, unresolved issue. It’s not always the most effective or sustainable way to deal with pain or trauma, but it’s a coping mechanism—a type of distraction you use to try to keep the source of your pain bearable, at least in the short term.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read the blog here:&amp;nbsp;https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/intrusive-thoughts&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-&lt;strong&gt;ButcherBox: ButcherBox is offering my listeners one of their best deals yet: a 100% grass-fed chuck roast and a whole organic chicken FREE when you join plus an additional $20 off your first box.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about managing regret. As the new year approaches, we generally start to think about all the changes we want to happen in our lives. Likewise, many of us may find ourselves reflecting back on the previous year, and sometimes that reflection comes with a lot of regret. We may think back to our last New Year’s Eve and about all the resolutions we made then that we didn’t fulfill, or about all the mistakes we made in 2022 that we wish we could change.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I continue the discussion I started in my previous podcast: how to not let other people’s words and actions negatively impact our mental health. Sometimes it can be challenging to know how to respond when someone triggers you, even if you listened to my previous podcast several times. Emotions can run hot, which may make it a challenge to react well in the moment.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: This podcast was recorded in the middle of a major storm and tornado warning, so the quality may be a little scratchy. Thankfully we were safe in the studio, and no significant weather-related damage occurred where our offices are located!
In this podcast I talk about something that I battle with: “if only/should have/could have” thinking, and how I manage my mind to overcome this negative mental spiral. If we are constantly trapped in a web of “if only/I can’t/could have/would have/should have”, this kind of thinking can quickly become a toxic mindset that changes our perspective—the way we see and respond to the world. I know, I have been there many times! This is really something I have struggled with my whole life. Regrets and ruminations can really catch you in their snare and keep you stuck in a negative thought spiral, which, in turn, can impact your mental wellbeing.

      <title>Podcast 442: The #1 mindset you need to develop to end your year well, and prepare for the new year</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Podcast-442-The-1-mindset-you-need-to-develop-to-end-your-year-well--and-prepare-for-the-new-year-e1s3s18</link>
      <description>Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about one of the best ways to improve your mental health and resilience: a possibilities mindset! First, it is important to understand what a mindset is. It is how we view the world—it generates our perspective, which shapes the way we interact with our environment, that is the choices we make as we respond to what happens to us, and as we choose what to think, say and do. Why are mindsets so important? Mindsets direct our perceptions and subsequent actions. When we understand HOW our mind works and how mindsets are formed, we can direct our mind where we want it to go, what structures we want it to build in our brain, and ultimately choose how we want our life to look. Mindsets teach us how to shape our life stories.

Why are mindsets so important?&lt;strong&gt; Mindsets direct our perceptions and subsequent actions. &lt;/strong&gt;When we understand HOW our mind works and how mindsets are formed, we can direct our mind where we want it to go, what structures we want it to build in our brain, and ultimately choose how we want our life to look.&lt;strong&gt; Mindsets teach us how to shape our life stories.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read the blog here:&amp;nbsp;https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-1-mindset-you-need-to-develop-to-end-your-year-well-prepare-for-the-new-year&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-&lt;strong&gt;Everlywell: And, for listeners of the show, Everlywell is offering a special discount of twenty percent off an at-home lab test at &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://everlywell.com/drleaf"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;everlywell.com/drleaf&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;-&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Athletic Greens: All you have to do is visit &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://athleticgreens.com/partner/d35ctoffer-nutrition/en?utm_source=podcast&amp;amp;utm_medium=influencer&amp;amp;utm_campaign=drleaf_d35ct__a1248__o27&amp;amp;utm_term=cac__a1248__o27&amp;amp;utm_content=medical__a1248__o27"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;athleticgreens.com/leaf&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; to take ownership over your health and pick up the ultimate daily nutritional insurance!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;-BiOptimizer’s &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MassEnzymes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;.: &lt;strong&gt;For an exclusive offer for my listeners just go to &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.masszymes.com/drleaf&amp;amp;amp;sa=D&amp;amp;amp;source=editors&amp;amp;amp;ust=1668760392089384&amp;amp;amp;usg=AOvVaw1SdVc9qsBNyZNXWk7slIr7&amp;amp;sa=D&amp;amp;source=docs&amp;amp;ust=1668760392100298&amp;amp;usg=AOvVaw2N-M2tBvyewzVBs7lBrLIr"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;www.masszymes.com/drleaf&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about one of the best ways to improve your mental health and resilience: a possibilities mindset! First, it is important to understand what a mindset is. It is how we view the world—it generates our perspective, which shapes the way we interact with our environment, that is the choices we make as we respond to what happens to us, and as we choose what to think, say and do. Why are mindsets so important? Mindsets direct our perceptions and subsequent actions. When we understand HOW our mind works and how mindsets are formed, we can direct our mind where we want it to go, what structures we want it to build in our brain, and ultimately choose how we want our life to look. Mindsets teach us how to shape our life stories.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: n this podcast I talk about several helpful ways to get out of a shame spiral. In our society today, it can be hard to feel any degree of self-worth. We are bombarded with the shame of not living up to our own expectations, or the expectations of others. We cannot live up to the photoshopped and retouched images that seem to tell us that to be happy, we must look, dress or act in a certain way, or get straight As and go to an Ivy League university. We are not able to compete with celebrities and influencers—we are just one social media ‘like’ in a sea of admirers, wishing to be someone or do something. It is easy to give in to these voices, listen to them and allow them to take root inside our heads. It is easy to fall into a “shame spiral,” feeling like you will never be able to live up to what society deems as worthy. How can we escape this spiral? How can we quit the system and be happy being who we really are at our core? How can we learn to be comfortable with who we are and where we are in life?

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast (episode #429) and blog, I talk to Surgeon General of the United States Dr. Vivek Murthy about the role workplaces play in their employee’s mental and physical health, how to help organizations support the wellbeing of their workers, the opportunity for growth in a workplace, and so much more! Dr. Vivek H. Murthy was confirmed by the U.S. Senate in March 2021 to serve as the 21st Surgeon General of the United States. As the Nation's Doctor, the Surgeon General's mission is to help lay the foundation for a healthier country, relying on the best scientific information available to provide clear, consistent, and equitable guidance and resources for the public. And as the Vice Admiral of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, Dr. Murthy commands a uniformed service of over 6,000 dedicated public health officers, serving the most underserved and vulnerable populations domestically and abroad.

Dr. Vivek H. Murthy was confirmed by the U.S. Senate in March 2021 to serve as the 21st Surgeon General of the United States. As the Nation's Doctor, the Surgeon General's mission is to help lay the foundation for a healthier country, relying on the best scientific information available to provide clear, consistent, and equitable guidance and resources for the public. And as the Vice Admiral of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, Dr. Murthy commands a uniformed service of over 6,000 dedicated public health officers, serving the most underserved and vulnerable populations domestically and abroad.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about why we need to change the way we think about mental health. This podcast is part 8 of my series on the different parts of the mind and brain. As mentioned in my previous podcasts on this topic, The Difference Between the Nonconscious, Subconscious &amp; Conscious Mind (part 1), How to Tap Into the Nonconscious Mind to Unwire Trauma &amp; Toxic Thinking Habits (part 2), How to Listen to &amp; Learn from Your Mental &amp; Physical Warning Signals (part 3), The Difference Between Thoughts &amp; Memories (part 4), What is the Mind? (part 5), How to Make Intrusive Thoughts Work for You, Not Against You(part 6), and Neuroplasticity: What It Is &amp; How to Harness Its Power for Your Benefit (part 7), when you consciously engage the nonconscious mind through deliberate, intentional, strategic, and proactive deep thinking, you draw your thoughts, with their embedded memories, through the subconscious mind and into the conscious mind. When these thoughts arrive in the conscious mind, they’re in a malleable state, which means you can change them and reconceptualize them—you can change the way they impact your life.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about managing intrusive thoughts. This podcast is part 6 of my series on the different parts of the mind and brain. Intrusive thinking is can be defined as uncontrollable, unwanted thoughts that we feel unable to resist. This kind of thinking is often a way of coping with an underlying, unresolved issue. It’s not always the most effective or sustainable way to deal with pain or trauma, but it’s a coping mechanism—a type of distraction you use to try to keep the source of your pain bearable, at least in the short term.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to philosopher and bestselling author Ryan Holiday about the power of stoicism, how to develop discipline and self-regulation, and so much more! As Ryan points out, ancient thinkers knew a lot about what it means to be human. Even though they were not neuroscientists, and even though they didn’t have access to all the technological and medical advances we have today, ancient writings are filled with wisdom that can help us lead better lives. Just because something is “old” doesn’t mean we can’t benefit from it!

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about the difference between thoughts and memories. This podcast is part 4 of my series on the different parts of the mind. The mind is made up of trillions and trillions of thoughts. A thought is a real physical thing that occupies mental real estate in the brain and mind. A thought is built into the brain as you use your mind—that is, as you think, feel and choose. Thoughts are located in three different places: your brain, your mind, and the cells of your body.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to best-selling author and explorer Colin O’ Brady on his adventures in Antarctica, Everest and other incredible places around the world, how to embark on your own life adventure, the power of deep thinking, why we all need to have a “possible mindset”, how to get “unstuck”, and so much more!

His athletic accomplishments include a world-first solo crossing of Antarctica (which he talks about in his incredible book The Impossible First: From Fire to Ice―Crossing Antarctica Alone), a world-first ocean row across Drake Passage (from South America to Antarctica), and summiting Mt. Everest twice.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to top podcast host and author Michael Anthony about healing childhood trauma, the power of identity, why we should do something different everyday, the power of helping others, and so much more. Unfortunately, as Michael notes, childhood abuse is prevalent in America and around the world. It is one of the biggest elephants in the room when it comes to mental health. As uncomfortable as it is to face, childhood trauma is something we need to talk about more, and on a much deeper level.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this week’s podcast I continue my discussion of the different parts of the mind, and how they are connected. Last week, I spoke about the difference between the nonconscious, subconscious and conscious mind. This week, I am going to talk about how interconnected these three parts of the mind are, and the nature of the nonconscious, “wise” mind. The nonconscious mind is incredible but often misunderstood. Even the word nonconscious is used incorrectly most of the time. Yet it’s worth putting in the effort to try to understand it, because it’s a key player when it comes to mind-management. The more you understand the nonconscious mind, the more you will see that you also have the ability to change your mind.

Last &lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-difference-between-the-nonconscious-subconscious-conscious-mind"&gt;week&lt;/a&gt;, I spoke about the difference between the nonconscious, subconscious and conscious mind. This week, I am going to talk about how interconnected these three parts of the mind are, and the nature of the nonconscious, “wise” mind. The nonconscious mind is incredible but often misunderstood. Even the word nonconscious is used incorrectly most of the time. Yet it’s worth putting in the effort to try to understand it, because it’s a key player when it comes to mind-management. &lt;strong&gt;The more you understand the nonconscious mind, the more you will see that you also have the ability to change your mind.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sign up to Patreon to get access to the full video and audio recording add-free, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read the blog and show notes here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-tap-into-the-nonconcious-mind-to-unwire-trauma-toxic-thinking-habits&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-&lt;strong&gt;Kion: You can now save 20% on monthly deliveries and 10% on one-time purchases.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about the interconnected mind, as well as the divisions of the mind and what each part does. In learning about how to use our mind to manage our mind, it helps to understand the divisions of the mind and how these relate to the dynamic nature of thoughts. There are basically two ways of managing the mind: reactively, which generally ends up being messy, or proactively, which is how we clean up our mental mess. Developing a lifelong plan that helps you constantly manage thoughts and their impact is part of a proactive and strategic approach. You can even think of this as “preventative” medicine for your brain!

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Podcast-413-The-great-psychiatry-fraud-e1n856s</link>
      <description>Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I speak with best-selling author, journalist and mental health advocate Robert Whitaker about the myth of the chemical imbalance, the politics of psychiatry and Big Pharma, and why we need to change the way we think and talk about mental health. Whitaker sees his role as a science journalist as someone who is an honest communicator. Science journalism is a public service—it involves presenting real, evidence-based science to the public, not marketing. This role as an honest communicator shaped Whitaker’s work as director of public relations at Harvard medical school, and eventually led him to investigate how medical professionals can delude themselves, how money and business can corrupt medical practice, including psychiatry, and the myth of the chemical imbalance

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I discuss the difference between enabling and empowering someone. Simply put, enabling is doing something challenging for someone else, while empowering someone means helping and supporting them as they complete the challenging task. Think of those school projects you did as a child; enabling is your mom doing the whole project for you, while empowering is your mom helping you do your own school project.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about what brain waves are, why they are important and how we can balance our brain waves to improve our mind and brain health. Our brain waves are active all the time because the brain is always active. The brain is active 24/7, 7 days a week! Our brain waves change in terms of how they move through the brain, which is based on what we are thinking, doing and feeling. When slower brain waves are dominant, we often feel tired, slow, sluggish, or dreamy, and are not able to process information or emotions very well. When the higher brain wave frequencies are dominant, we can feel wired or hyper-alert, like there is just too much going on in our brains. A healthy brain tries to balance these extremes.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: When we experience any kind of trauma, we can respond to the threat in various ways to cope. We are all familiar with the fight or flight response, but there are actually four main trauma responses, which are categorized as “the four F’s of trauma”: fight, flight, freeze and fawn. In this podcast I will talk about these different trauma responses, and how to manage them in the moment using self-regulation and mind-management techniques. Although recent research indicates there may be two more trauma responses common to human beings, I am just going to concentrate on the main four for this podcast.

We are all familiar with the fight or flight response, but there are actually four main trauma responses, which are categorized as “the four F’s of trauma”: &lt;a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/addiction-and-recovery/202008/understanding-fight-flight-freeze-and-the-fawn-response"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;fight, flight, freeze and fawn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcasI talk about mental processing speeds and how we can improve our thinking.

Intelligent thinking occurs in the nonconscious mind at about a million operations per second. Our nonconscious mind is therefore constantly working and is operating at faster speeds than our conscious mind.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcastI talk about dreaming and mental health. This topic was inspired by an email I recently received: “Since dreams come from our busy minds, can we slowly over time change our dreams in some way?  I do not always remember dreams obviously but when I am awakened by dreams (often) or remember the next day, I do have a recurring pattern of always hurrying or being super frustrated, anxious!  I cannot help but think this is part of why I get so tired some days as I do not rest peacefully at night.  I’m just thinking dreams must be all part of the mental mind and I would love to have my dreams peaceful, pleasant, restful, whether I remember the dream or not, I feel like not having all the anxiety and frustration in the dreams would be very helpful to my awake hours.” 
We need to remember that detoxing the mind and brain doesn’t just take place when we are awake. We also detox our thoughts when we sleep. in fact, our dreams can help us sort out our thoughts and clean up our mental mess. They have a purpose—recurring dreams may even indicate an unresolved issue in our lives, so it is important that we try and pay attention to what we dream about.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I discuss co-regulation.Co-regulation is a way of helping someone develop self-regulation. The person co-regulates by staying present for the individual, helping them navigate a challenging experience and move towards greater self-awareness. This involves a supportive relationship between two or more people that is process-driven—the goal is to help a person self-regulate themselves while they are in a highly emotional state.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I discuss a question I was asked recently: should we have mental health days at school? We all go through difficult times, and we all battle with “mental health.” If there is a mental health day, it should be something that raises awareness that all people suffer from the “human condition”, that emotions like sadness, stress, grief and unhappiness are a normal part of life, and that we are there to help one another. This should not be a day to stigmatize some people with the label of “mentally ill” and deem others as “normal”.

We all go through difficult times, and we all battle with “mental health.” If there is a mental health day, it should be something that raises awareness that all people suffer from the “human condition”, that emotions like sadness, stress, grief and unhappiness are a normal part of life, and that we are there to help one another. This should not be a day to stigmatize some people with the label of “mentally ill” and deem others as “normal”.</p><p><br></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to the ad-free version of this session + more bonus items: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf.</p><p>Read the blog here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/should-we-have-mental-health-days-at-school</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-<strong>Gladskin: Right now, Gladskin is offering my listeners 15% off plus free shipping on your first order at </strong><a href="https://gladskin.com/collections/acne-prone?utm_source=CleaningUpTheMentalMesswDrLeaf&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=q2_2022_podcast"><u><strong>gladskin.com/DRLEAF</strong></u></a><strong>.</strong></p><p><strong>-Chime: Get started with Chime today.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I discuss the common signs of depression, why we should never be afraid of seeking help, how we can learn to manage depression, and more! Depression is something we should never ignore. When we feel depressed, we need to listen to what our mind, brain and body are trying to tell us.  Depression is a signal telling us we have something going on—that there is a “because of…” in our life that we need to investigate. The sooner you recognize the signals associated with feelings of depression, the sooner you can make the necessary adjustments to your life and get the help you need to start healing.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about the benefits of laughing at yourself. Laughter neutralizes situations, and a neutral situation is a safe space where deep meaningful relationships are made and strengthened. Laughing at oneself shows vulnerability, honesty and humility.

      <title>Podcast 392: The surprising benefits of disappointment + how to embrace it &amp; use it to your advantage</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Podcast-392-The-surprising-benefits-of-disappointment--how-to-embrace-it--use-it-to-your-advantage-e1k5r7p</link>

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about managing feelings of disappointment before they negatively affect our mental wellbeing. Disappointment is the feeling we get when an expectation that we have isn’t met. It is an emotional signal, a messenger, telling us that something is out of balance in our lives—what we want doesn’t reflect our reality.

EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: 
2:25 What disappointment is 
3:00 Disappointment is not necessarily “bad” 
3:20 Disappointment is a signal that we can learn from 
3:50 Why we should not be afraid of disappointment 
6:10 Why we need to embrace, not suppress, how we feel 
6:50 The different ways disappointment affects us 
7:10, 14:00 How to use mind management to reconceptualize disappointment 
13:00 What can happen if we don’t manage our disappointment 18:15 How to turn disappointment into a learning experience

Disappointment is the feeling we get when an expectation that we have isn’t met. It is an emotional signal, a messenger, telling us that something is out of balance in our lives—what we want doesn’t reflect our reality.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For the blog and show notes: &lt;a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-surprising-benefits-of-disappointment"&gt;https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-surprising-benefits-of-disappointment&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sign up to Patreon to get access to bonus ad-free podcasts, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;amp;As, and more: &lt;a href="https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf"&gt;https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Gladskin: Gladskin is offering my listeners 15% off plus free shipping on your first order at &lt;a href="https://gladskin.com/collections/acne-prone?utm_source=CleaningUpTheMentalMesswDrLeaf&amp;amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;amp;utm_campaign=q2_2022_podcast"&gt;https://gladskin.com/DRLEAF&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-BetterHelp: Get 10% off their first month at &lt;a href="https://www.betterhelp.com/drleaf"&gt;https://betterhelp.com/drleaf&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-NOOM: Sign up for your trial at &lt;a href="https://www.noom.com/lp/weightLossGoal?group=audio&amp;amp;isvanity=y&amp;amp;lang=en&amp;amp;sp=adresults&amp;amp;step=pros&amp;amp;type=bakedin&amp;amp;upv=3&amp;amp;utm_content=drleaf&amp;amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;amp;utm_source=cleaningupthementalmess"&gt;https://noom.com/DRLEAF&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2:25 What disappointment is&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3:00 Disappointment is not necessarily “bad”&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3:20 Disappointment is a signal that we can learn from&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3:50 Why we should not be afraid of disappointment&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;6:10 Why we need to embrace, not suppress, how we feel&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;6:50 The different ways disappointment affects us&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;7:10, 14:00 How to use mind management to reconceptualize disappointment&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;13:00 What can happen if we don’t manage our disappointment 18:15 How to turn disappointment into a learning experience&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Get my new book Cleaning up Your Mental Mess here: &lt;a href="https://www.cleaningupyourmentalmess.com"&gt;https://www.cleaningupyourmentalmess.com&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Download my new and improved brain detox app here:&lt;a href="https://www.neurocycle.app"&gt; https://neurocycle.app&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Get a free Cleaning up Your Mental Mess workbook when you subscribe to my weekly email at drleaf.com!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Sign up to join my free text program and receive mental health care tips.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast and blog, I talk about how to get out of a shame spiral. In our society today, it can be hard to feel any degree of self-worth. We are bombarded with the shame of not living up to our own expectations, or the expectations of others. We cannot live up to the photoshopped and retouched images that seem to tell us that to be happy, we must look, dress or act in a certain way, or get straight As and go to an Ivy League university. We are not able to compete with celebrities and influencers—we are just one social media ‘like’ in a sea of admirers, wishing to be someone or do something.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about memory, including how to improve memory. We actually aren’t supposed to remember everything. The brain is designed to forget things that are not useful to us. In fact, trying to remember everything can cause neurochemical chaos in our neural circuitry because we are designed to selectively remember what interests us and what we need for a particular task.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast  I am going to talk about boundaries in friendships, and why it is okay to be honest and ask a friend for space.
It is always okay to ask for space in a relationship. Boundaries are an important part of a healthy bond, as I discussed in a recent podcast and blog. We all have our own unique needs for “space”, and need to be able to communicate where we are and what we need to our loved ones, including our friends.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to actor, comedian, author and podcaster Josh Peck about fame, his incredible new book, the importance of self-esteem, overcoming addiction, and so much more. In his new book Happy People Are Annoying Josh talks about how he had to face life on life’s terms, and define what happiness meant to him as a unique individual. He realized that external things like marriage, money, success, drugs, sex, or food will not fill up the “hole in the soul”.  True, lasting peace and comfort come from doing the inner work. As Josh notes, he could not use external things to medicate things deep within himself.

      <title>Podcast 364: 3 Ways to boost your mental energy when you are tired and overwhelmed</title>

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about tips to boost your energy when you tired and overwhelmed. Why do we get tired? Our nonconscious mind never stops. It’s always trying to make us aware of issues that are damaging our resilience and causing neurophysiological disruptions in our brain and body. However, the conscious mind and braindo get tired because they work on energy, like our phones. This is kind of like when we have a whole lot of apps open, the brightness is on full and we are constantly using our phone—very soon the battery will die. And, like you need to recharge your phone, you also need to recharge your brain and conscious mind.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about tips to boost your energy when you tired and overwhelmed. Why do we get tired? Our nonconscious mind never stops. It’s always trying to make us aware of issues that are damaging our resilience and causing neurophysiological disruptions in our brain and body. However, the conscious mind and braindo get tired because they work on energy, like our phones. This is kind of like when we have a whole lot of apps open, the brightness is on full and we are constantly using our phone—very soon the battery will die. And, like you need to recharge your phone, you also need to recharge your brain and conscious mind.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about the difference between a significant other and a soulmate. A soulmate is word we use to describe a human bond that involves a deep and satisfying sense of peace and connection. We literally wire this connection with our mind over time (our mind is our “aliveness”, that is our ability to think, feel and choose) into our brain, body and mind.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about the difference between a significant other and a soulmate. A soulmate is word we use to describe a human bond that involves a deep and satisfying sense of peace and connection. We literally wire this connection with our mind over time (our mind is our “aliveness”, that is our ability to think, feel and choose) into our brain, body and mind.

      <title>Podcast 359: Toxic Positivity: What it sounds like, why it's toxic, and what to say instead</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Podcast-359-Toxic-Positivity-What-it-sounds-like--why-its-toxic--and-what-to-say-instead-e1eqt9h</link>
      <description>Sign up to Patreon to get access to bonus ad-free podcasts, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to therapist and author Whitney Goodman about her new book on toxic positivity, why good intentions are sometimes not good enough, and more! As Whitney notes in her new book, toxic positivity tends to shut down conversations, and often stops people from truly connecting—especially when it comes to the hard “stuff” we all face as we lives our lives. Even if someone is just trying to be nice by saying things like “everything happens for a reason” or “remember, the glass is half full”, the person sharing their pain and struggles can feel silenced by these seemingly innocuous platitudes. It can make the person struggling feel like their distress is making the other person uncomfortable or scared, which often feels like rejection.

It can make the person struggling feel like their distress is making the other person uncomfortable or scared, which often feels like rejection.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read the show blog here:&amp;nbsp;https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/toxic-positivity-what-it-is-how-it-hurts-what-to-say-instead&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Get her book here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/673005/toxic-positivity-by-whitney-goodman/&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-&lt;strong&gt;BetterHelp: Cleaning Up The Mental Mess listeners get 10% off their first month at &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;betterhelp.com/drleaf&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;-The Melanie Avalon Biohacking Podcast:&amp;nbsp;Visit &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://melanieavalon.com/"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MelanieAvalon.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; for episode lists and transcripts, and search for &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Melanie Avalon Biohacking Podcast &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;on Apple podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts!

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about something we all do: laughing! Have you ever thought about why emitting sounds from our mouths gives us so much joy? Even when those sounds can sometimes come out like a cackle, grunt, wheeze or even a snort? When we do this, we are most likely filled with joy, although there are times when people laugh out of discomfort, shock, anger, and/or sadness. In almost all these situations, however, there is something about laughing that relieves us—it releases tension and can improve our mood in tangible ways.

In almost all these situations, however, there is something about laughing that relieves us—<strong>it releases tension and can improve our mood in tangible ways</strong>.</p><p>Read the show blog here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/laughing</p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-<strong>BiOptimizer’s Magnesium: For an exclusive offer for my listeners go to </strong><a href="http://www.magbreakthrough.com/leaf"><u><strong>http://www.magbreakthrough.com/leaf</strong></u></a><strong> and use DRLEAF10 during checkout to save 10% on your order.</strong></p><p><strong>-Splendid Spoon: Get started and save $35 on your first order of delicious plant-based meals at </strong><a href="http://splendidspoon.com/DRLEAF"><u><strong>SplendidSpoon.com/DRLEAF</strong></u></a><strong>—that's only $6.66 per meal!</strong></p><p><strong>-NOOM: Sign up for your trial and get psychology-based support and motivation to reach your goals at </strong><a href="https://www.noom.com/programs/health-weight/exsf01/?upv=3&amp;sp=adresults&amp;utm_source=cleaningupthementalmess&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_content=drleaf&amp;type=bakedin&amp;group=audio&amp;step=pros&amp;lang=en&amp;isvanity=y#/"><u><strong>noom.com/DRLEAF</strong></u></a><strong>.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:</p><p><strong>2:00</strong> What laughter is</p><p><strong>3:45</strong> Laughter as communication</p><p><strong>4:25, 15:00</strong> How laughing affects the brain &amp; body</p><p><strong>8:30</strong> Laughing &amp; self-regulation</p><p><strong>9:30</strong> How laughing helps protect us</p><p><strong>13:00</strong> Laughing, oxygen &amp; blood flow</p><p><strong>14:00</strong> Laughing as tension relief</p><p><strong>19:18, 24:25</strong> How laughing helps us manage toxic stress</p><p><strong>20:45</strong> Ho laughing helps us rest &amp; restore</p><p><strong>21:00</strong> Laughing as therapy</p><p><strong>24:00</strong> Laughter &amp; mind management</p><p><strong>26:30</strong> Why we should all laugh more!</p><p><br></p><p>Get my new book Cleaning up Your Mental Mess here: https://www.cleaningupyourmentalmess.com</p><p><br></p><p>Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app</p><p><br></p><p>Sign up to join my free text program and receive mental health care tips.

*Content/trigger warning: the following discussion contains talk about abuse and trauma bonding*

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about trauma bonding, and how to start healing from the trauma of an abusive relationship.
Trauma bonding generally occurs in abusive relationships. It is a psychological and emotional response to abuse, when the person experiencing the abuse can develop certain attachments or sympathies for the abuser.

If you are in an abusive relationship, you can call this hotline 1.800.799.7233 or visit The National Domestic Violence Hotline website for help and immediate support.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this week’s podcast I talk about the importance of self-awareness and how it is a key part of the healing process. Without awareness, we cannot change or move forward. To make changes in our thoughts and subsequent communication, we need to be strategic, proactive and deliberate about our thinking. We need to try to be aware of what we are thinking about every day. This is called self-regulation.

      <title>Podcast 340: Breaking Free From Codependency</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Podcast-340-Breaking-Free-From-Codependency-e1b9pas</link>
      <description>EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about the difference between codependency and being codependent. In my previous podcast on relationships (ep 255), I talked about how to handle changing relationships, or how there may be moments when you must end a relationship and just walk away. For this podcast, I want to talk about a big concept that many people have heard of, but can be one of the hardest things to recognize in ourselves and others: codependency.

      <itunes:summary>EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about the difference between codependency and being codependent. In my previous podcast on relationships (ep 255), I talked about how to handle changing relationships, or how there may be moments when you must end a relationship and just walk away. For this podcast, I want to talk about a big concept that many people have heard of, but can be one of the hardest things to recognize in ourselves and others: codependency.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about something I am sure you have all experienced at least once in your life: FOMO, or the fear of missing out. This is a mindset that is similar to the “if only, could have, would have” mindset I discussed in a previous podcast and blog. It can quickly steal our sense of peace and impact our wellbeing if we don’t learn how to manage it!

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: We all have mental habits that are not so great—the things that keep us stuck, make us stressed out, impact our health and affect our relationships. Thankfully, we don’t have to stay “stuck” in these negative thinking patterns. In this week’s podcast, I speak with clinical neuropsychologist, writer and mental health advocate Nawal Mustafa about common cognitive and thinking errors we all deal with and what we can do to overcome them, how to recognize and avoid psychological invalidation and gaslighting, the difference between healthy venting and emotional dumping, the best way to have difficult emotional discussions, and how to help your children speak about their feelings and experiences.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I speak about the link between anxiety, stress and decision-making. Often, when we are in an anxious state, we cannot seem to make a decision, or, if we do, we end up making a choice we regret. I know this has happened to me many times! What should we do when this happens? Is there a way out of this mental swamp? Thankfully, yes!

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I speak about the link between anxiety, stress and decision-making.

What should we do when this happens? Is there a way out of this mental swamp? Thankfully, yes!

      <title>Podcast 333: Are you a Highly Sensitive Person? Signs &amp; Tips on how to navigate life as an HSP</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Podcast-333-Are-you-a-Highly-Sensitive-Person--Signs--Tips-on-how-to-navigate-life-as-an-HSP-e1a403o</link>

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: The word “sensitive” has both positive and negative connotations in our society, from statements like “he’s such a sensitive person” to phrases like “don’t be so sensitive!”. Yet the nature of human sensitivity is often misunderstood, especially when it comes to recognizing and dealing with highly sensitive people.
As I discuss in this week’s with psychologist and best-selling author Dr. Elaine Aron, a significant percentage of the population (regardless of gender, race or nationality) are highly sensitive individuals, although many of them don’t know they are highly sensitive, or what that means for the way they interact with others, express their emotions, deal with disapproval or parent their children.

      <description>EPISODE DESCRIPTION: Yes, sometimes our emotions can drive us crazy. But did you know that they are also an incredible source of data, a way to learn how to be in the world?

      <description>EPISODE DESCRIPTION: We all know those people that are always on the go: they never seem to rest, they are always busy doing something and they seem to accomplish so much. Perhaps you are one of those people! But did you know that this could also be a sign of high-functioning anxiety? In this podcast, I speak to therapist and licensed counselor Nancy Jane Smith about the signs and symptoms of high-functioning anxiety and how to overcome it, as well as how to deal with perfectionism, people-pleasing and burnout.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about how over-explaining and over-sharing can be trauma responses, and how they impact the way we function. I decided to speak about this topic because of the many responses I got to a social media post I recently put up: “Over-explaining is a common trauma response for those who were often made to feel at fault as a child. At one point, the desire to people-please provided safety. But, please know, what happened is not your fault, and it’s not your job to regulate other people’s emotional states.”

SHOW DESCRIPTION: So, what exactly is “shock-absorbing”? It is kind of like feeling you need to smooth things over all the time or keep the peace/avoid conflict in your relationships. It includes feeling responsible for maintaining harmony in your relationships, trying to justify another person’s negative behavior to blunt their impact, taking on more and more responsibility in a relationship, feeling resentful or over-burdened because you are always trying to keep the peace, or putting up with bad behavior to avoid conflict.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I answer another question from a listener on toxic relationships and trauma bonds. Trauma bonds are chains that link a victim to someone who is dangerous to them within the confines of an exploitive relationship. Divorce, employee relations, child abuse, family and marital systems, domestic violence, kidnapping, exploitation and religious abuse can all be areas of trauma bonding. All these relationships share one thing: “they are situations of incredible intensity or importance where there is an exploitation of trust or power”.

Trauma bonds are chains that link a victim to someone who is dangerous to them within the confines of an exploitive relationship. Divorce, employee relations, child abuse, family and marital systems, domestic violence, kidnapping, exploitation and religious abuse can all be areas of trauma bonding. All these relationships share one thing: “they are situations of incredible intensity or importance where there is an exploitation of trust or power”.</p><p>Read the show blog here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/trauma-bonding-toxic-emotional-attachment-how-to-know-when-to-stay-when-to-go-how-to-find-healing-freedom</p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-<strong>BiOptimizers Magnesium: For an exclusive offer for my listeners go to </strong><a href="http://www.magbreakthrough.com/leaf"><strong>http://www.magbreakthrough.com/leaf</strong></a><strong> and use DRLEAF10 during checkout to save 10% on your order.</strong></p><p><strong>-Framebridge (frame your photos, keepsakes or artwork, or send someone the perfect gift!): Go to </strong><a href="https://www.framebridge.com/"><strong>Framebridge.com</strong></a><strong> and use the promo code DRLEAF to save an additional 15% off your first order.</strong></p><p><strong>-MeUndies: Get 15% off your first order and free shipping at </strong><a href="https://www.meundies.com/collections/podcast-general?utm_campaign=drleaf&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_source=arm"><strong>meundies.com/DRLEAF</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p><p><strong>-PlushCare</strong>, a company that makes it easy and simple to find a health professional in your area, which I love, especially with my busy lifestyle! Start your membership today.<strong> Go to </strong><a href="https://plushcare.com/drleaf/"><strong>https://plushcare.com/drleaf/</strong></a><strong> to start your FREE 30-day trial.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>PODCAST HIGHLIGHTS:</p><p><strong>2:05</strong> What a trauma bond is</p><p><strong>4:20</strong> Trauma bonding and exploitation</p><p><strong>9:00, 33:40</strong> Gaslighting and other relationship warning signs</p><p><strong>11:02, 29:00</strong> Why we can never “fix” someone else</p><p><strong>14:00</strong> Why boundaries are so important in a relationship</p><p><strong>14:24</strong> Sometimes ending a relationship may be the best thing for both people</p><p><strong>19:00</strong> How a trauma bond can impact your health</p><p><strong>24:50</strong> How to help someone who doesn’t want to change while putting up boundaries</p><p><strong>35:15 </strong>Why trauma bonds are so confusing</p><p><strong>36:45</strong> How relationships change your mind, brain and bond</p><p><strong>44:00</strong> How to use mind management to heal trauma from toxic relationships</p><p><strong>51:05</strong> Tips to help heal a trauma bond</p><p><br></p><p>ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:</p><p>-Visit my website at https://drleaf.com for more free resources Follow me on social media for daily mental health tips &amp; strategies:</p><p>-Instagram: @drcarolineleaf: https://www.instagram.com/drcarolineleaf/-</p><p>-Facebook: Dr. Caroline Leaf: https://www.facebook.com/drleaf</p><p>-Twitter: @drcarolineleaf: https://twitter.com/DrCarolineLeaf</p><p>-Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p>If you enjoyed this episode please leave a 5 review on iTunes, Google Play, or wherever you are listening!

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about how life is not an “either this or that” game. Rather, it is an “and” game, which means that it is normal to hold two or more opposing ideas or feelings in your head at the same time, even in your relationships, and accepting this will save you a lot of mental distress!

SHOW DESCRIPTION: Childhood is a very vulnerable period in our lives: we are growing, developing and learning how to see ourselves and the world around us. This, in turn, can affect how we ourselves function as adults—soon, a very toxic, generational cycle of trauma can be set up! In this podcast I speak to holistic psychologist Dr. Nicole LePera about healing childhood trauma, ending codependency, and overcoming toxic habits and behaviors. She also shares some great tools to help you break free from destructive behaviors to reclaim and recreate your life.

In this podcast I talk about how to teach your child to manage their thoughts and emotions using the Neurocycle method I have researched and developed over the past 3 and half decades, the importance of teaching your child deep breathing, why brain-building exercises are so important for your child, how to calm your child down when they are feeling anxious or scared, the importance of play and rest, and more!</p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-Athletic greens: G<strong>et a one year free supply of vitamin D and 5 free travel packs with your order see: </strong><a href="http://trk.klclick2.com/ls/click?upn=MmY-2FnptVtHRyKtjJtU1ebYzoEG-2FUCym1R3ey5R-2BH8xd4jfHAypa0J7ILMEgBGvszCc4DD1oto9N05LPqOpOjSRDSAFWMVR9ZLCPdFKCRrFrewlrggI8J3SmNl5WFO-2Bom-2FZTpYZA8TPtoDDr-2BQsrcqK5QX5BajB6JP2cSCZkvg0YY4ZboenCYYnfslWPOGA5OMfqtn85KSgSvL31u2VXbAf8of-2FB9UBJ5OR8JIo0WktRhe9GxiSzgW9aFcvowJdnQVgfTaAVpx7HdvSGqK04kqkd1F4t2XVC6-2F192EdThuY6i4S0QV9-2BE5K3wxnoPx4YFxSvRBRiKg5Nesn4gMI52pbnjglcb666iCRvs839Ka-2Fx628-2FeeB6mlyZS5rFiaIfvtGDmwT53il2e4wT8FsKq9A-3D-3DsXKz_TCBZcDrRqF4dST4uMwf0BU3XROfPfHBN-2FXjCcAepd4AAdi1QY8H8M-2FvqtS2e01YylZ6XIxEvO8k3K1YMR6KlRi7yihOJ746LnL95VKxS1gh0WZDJdf32PAxpqZreXFjOwGLQtm2reRI09nmPE2mKFkLizjBidzvrFPMR9EooeulW0KJbn0naqdCAKo-2FZhbS9WwRhGWPzUWh-2BNYopNNjFqnDxT1RkNjV-2BncvNNLlPAoWdo3E3JNCarxFXcXkQ5J6Xji7vSpJuYVXBEnssRtCZTdzCNrAWff4Mkun2-2F-2FU3MjXMySzui93TnZUcxwUVRUV3kXTsaxVLjLkgTioSgcLNl9O0Mx6-2B-2B3xhvgdd-2BY06tw69HLMZxtOBKjjxBUlj1K39-2BcVHs7WNITCYj-2FzyTBpQK2DdchfaPs47MZclSjT2xSs-3D"><strong>athleticgreens.com/LEAF</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p><p>-Four stigmatic coffee (my favorite coffee packed with superfoods &amp; brain-boosting nutrients!): Get up to 40% off + Free Shipping on Mushroom Coffee bundles: <a href="https://us.foursigmatic.com/drleaf.">Foursigmatic.com/<strong>drleaf</strong>.</a></p><p><br></p><p>PODCAST HIGHLIGHTS:</p><p>2:41 Why teaching your child to manage their mind is so important</p><p>3:28 How brain-building with your children will help them manage their mental health</p><p>5:00 Why so many children are battling with their mental health</p><p>9:30 Why we need to let our children play, rest and use their imagination</p><p>11:42 How to help a child who is battling at school</p><p>20:00 How mental health labels can affect a child’s identity</p><p>27:20 Why we need to be authentic and open with our children</p><p>32:36 What to do when you notice a change in your child’s behavior</p><p>35:00 How to use the Neurocycle with your child</p><p><br></p><p>ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:</p><p>-Visit my website at https://drleaf.com for more free resources Follow me on social media for daily mental health tips &amp; strategies:</p><p>-Instagram: @drcarolineleaf: https://www.instagram.com/drcarolineleaf/-</p><p>-Facebook: Dr. Caroline Leaf: https://www.facebook.com/drleaf</p><p>-Twitter: @drcarolineleaf: https://twitter.com/DrCarolineLeaf</p><p>-Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p>If you enjoyed this episode please leave a 5 review on iTunes, Google Play, or wherever you are listening!

SHOW DESCRIPTION: New Year’s resolutions may seem great on the surface, but they can also be a form of toxic positivity. As I discuss in detail in this podcast when we fail to keep a resolution (which often happens!), we can feel really bad about it. We often experience shame because we often think that there must be something wrong with us, or we think that we always fail and are so bad at all this “life” stuff. But that’s not the case at all! So in this episode I share how to correctly rewire your brain to create sustainable habits, why positive affirmations are not sustainable solutions, why giving up on goals may actually be a good thing, and more!

So in this episode I share how to correctly rewire your brain to create sustainable habits, why positive affirmations are not sustainable solutions, why giving up on goals may actually be a good thing, and more!</p><p>Show blog: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/are-new-year-s-resolutions-just-another-form-of-toxic-positivity-why-positive-affirmations-dont-work-in-the-long-run</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Blinkist, one of my favorite ways to pass the time while exercising and build my brain, which improves mental resilience!: </strong>To get your free week on Blinkist<strong> </strong>AND 25% off your subscription see:<a href="http://trk.klclick2.com/ls/click?upn=MmY-2FnptVtHRyKtjJtU1ebYGB2b0MH6ZDAiQvYe2VFPVDier3c20njxeoBjFALPivAHf0VRiaLg6kMH6sgTVImFoIVg-2BS6smq09RqS6ae0ojyWPPa6Gy5NOT0jUBBVXCaUe8w0it0dy4JgvYYDBLdc4Nzb7jnS8TP7mUKCBDXZPHkQeosb-2FdAOmEDif9DY2oUzZ6XFDD-2Bi3Md-2Bw4XJuh8pWHd3dy3wOcxaw2F7DH4mkg-3DkTEh_Ax-2FA2qB5XxIif0IVCV8oUyjHrcnlzjXWS7Y2GCv6POzseLtuqe0H-2FcSpDYs3C97YgpAAdPDsMI0A-2B6-2F8TslxOvq9jFwij60hLTpTGj92k-2B3uoe-2FJkQoT-2BfP3nqOKIy3PVrNqQeHI2yMtebygL7ReXD1-2BDBiDGSuR9ATDWl4K0RXTC8LRY-2BYayW1YQBcwQtuZFvgAJfF0M9LVSUNVonqQ-2B-2FHI-2BzrxmwcsfIGnD7Re1d6LslplYx2gt4jjUE3ak9rbZduFA0B1E9ifbwlzxgn-2F7dOoQjHVld9B5af3RT-2FcycnyEhmfc3W52rRfcR72DzhIa-2FOf7xwPTAIn2qnzTM1X5JrKY1MNIJ0fZk1iaiZ94-2BX38FIe2QHUPQK-2FQiftQhBkjUh5qHTAoDbL4lDkH9X9jg-3D-3D"> https://www.blinkist.com/nc/partners/cleaning-up-the-mental-mess</a></p><p><strong>BiOptimizers’s Leaky Gut Guardian, which is a great way to heal your gut and improve your immune health!</strong> Use code DRLEAF10 for 10% off any order at https://www.bioptimizers.com/drleaf</p><p><strong>Jenni Kayne, my favorite online store with a a beautiful selection of clothes and home goods.</strong> Get 15% off your first order when you use code DRLEAF at checkout: https://www.jennikayne.com</p><p><br></p><p>PODCAST HIGHLIGHTS:</p><p><strong>1:49</strong> How New Year’s resolutions can be a form of toxic positivity</p><p><strong>2:46</strong> It is okay to change or even not make a New Year’s resolution!</p><p><strong>4:12</strong> Why it can be difficult to build a new mental habit and change your lifestyle</p><p><strong>5:02</strong> How much time it really takes to change your mind</p><p><strong>14:52</strong> Why shaming yourself for not keeping a resolution will damage your mental health</p><p><strong>16:30</strong> Why failure is good for us and how we can learn from our experiences</p><p><strong>19:47</strong> Keeping a resolution won’t make you happy all the time or take away all your issues</p><p><strong>22:00 </strong>Why negative emotions and feelings are telling us something about ourselves</p><p><strong>23:10</strong> Why “bad” emotions are a normal part of life, and why it is okay to be unhappy</p><p><strong>26:00</strong> How to change your mind and keep your resolutions</p><p><br></p><p>-Visit my website at https://drleaf.com for more free resources</p><p>-Instagram: @drcarolineleaf: https://www.instagram.com/drcarolineleaf/</p><p>-Facebook: Dr. Caroline Leaf: https://www.facebook.com/drleaf</p><p> Hosted on Acast.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: As I discuss in this podcast  the brain has a natural optimism bias—we are what I call “wired for love”. This means that when we are connected to others in deep and meaningful ways, and when we are satisfied with where we are in life and where we are going (even if we have ups and downs, which are normal!), we can function at a healthy level. The brain likes it when we are in a good place!

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this special solo podcast, I share 5 simple &amp; scientifically-tested steps I developed over 30+ years working in private practice for my patients, who suffered from all kinds of mental health &amp; learning issues. These steps, when done over 63 days, can help you identify the root of a trauma or toxic thinking habit (which is causing anxiety, depression, etc), eliminate the root of this issue, and rebuild a healthy new neural network.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this special solo podcast, I share 5 simple &amp; scientifically-tested steps I developed over 30+ years working in private practice for my patients, who suffered from all kinds of mental health &amp; learning issues. These steps, when done over 63 days, can help you identify the root of a trauma or toxic thinking habit (which is causing anxiety, depression, etc), eliminate the root of this issue, and rebuild a healthy new neural network.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: Anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress are all ways of describing natural human responses to adversity. We all face adversity in many different ways; challenging events and circumstances are as much a part of modern existence as they were a part of human history. In this session, I discuss how this pain, which is very real, is a sign that there’s something going on in your life that needs to be addressed: you are in a state of disequilibrium. It’s not a sign of a defective brain. The brain is going through a process of reordering and reorganization in response to an experience because the brain responds to the mind. I will teach you how to identify these warning signs, how to address them, and how to begin healing.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: Stem cell injections? Butter in your coffee? Blueberries for breakfast? Today we’re overwhelmed with information and under-equipped to navigate through it. The good news is that we’ve never had more knowledge about how we might extend our lifespans. The bad news is that we don’t know how to make informed decisions. So, in this podcast I speak with successful businessman, visionary and longevity investor Sergey Young about quick and simple longevity habits that can help you stay healthy and age well, the three horizons of longevity, dangerous aging hacks people should avoid, the relationship between mental health and longevity, and more!

In Western thought, we see mental and physical health as two separate things, but this is not the case. Our thoughts and emotions, choice, life events, trauma and so on affect both our mental AND physical wellbeing. In this podcast I speak with leading functional medicine practitioner Dr. Will Cole about this mind-body connection, ways to reduce stress-induced inflammation, what adaptogens we should be taking to strengthen the mind and body, the best supplements for brain health, how to recognize and heal orthorexia, and more!

In Western thought, we see mental and physical health as two separate things, but this is not the case. Our thoughts and emotions, choice, life events, trauma and so on affect both our mental AND physical wellbeing. In this podcast I speak with leading functional medicine practitioner Dr. Will Cole about this mind-body connection, ways to reduce stress-induced inflammation, what adaptogens we should be taking to strengthen the mind and body, the best supplements for brain health, how to recognize and heal orthorexia, and more!

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In a highly competitive society like ours, it is easy to get discouraged and feel you are not good enough. I even experience this at times! Often, we can be our own worst enemy: we know the change we want to make in the world, but we talk ourselves out of it. But this doesn’t have to be the case. In this podcast I speak with Seth Godin, best-selling author, marketing guru and thought leader, about dealing with the pain of criticism, why we should avoid reassurance, overcoming imposter syndrome, why attitudes are skills to be learned, and more!

SHOW DESCRIPTION: As I have gotten older (I am in my 50s), I have started to come across a lot more “you are getting old” jokes and comments.

In this podcast I speak with the incredible “Iceman” Wim Hof about his new book The Wim Hof Method, the power of mind management, how cold exposure and deep breathing can improve our mental and physical health, ways to protect your body against viruses, training the brain to overcome any obstacle, and more!

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: Relationships can be tough, especially during a global pandemic! Many of us are spending more time than ever before with our partner, while COVID-19 has made it harder to connect with others if we are single and looking for a relationship. Thankfully, whether we are single, in a relationship or somewhere in between, there are things we can do now to attract the kind of love we want in our lives, as I discuss in this podcast interview with bestselling author, speaker and couple’s counselor Monica Berg. We talk about everything you need to know about healthy relationships, including why we need to rethink love, how to attract the kind of love you want, rekindling love in your life, building frameworks for lasting and fulfilling relationships, tips for single people, how to become more comfortable with change, why we need to argue more and how to argue better.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: Little is known about schizophrenia, even today. There is so much misinformation about this kind of mental distress, it is no wonder many people find it confusing and even frightening. In this podcast I speak with NY Times best-selling author and journalist Bob Kolker about his new book, Hidden Valley Road, and the extraordinary story of the Galvin family and their six sons who were diagnosed with schizophrenia in the 1960s/1970s, why so little is known about this type of mental ill-health, past and current treatment options, how to change the narrative around schizophrenia and mental health, and more!

Show Description: 
Human mental health is infinitely complex. We all battle in different ways, we all struggle, and we all need to learn how to cope, process, feel and experience life’s ups and downs. The fundamental way we do this is by listening to the signals our brain and body send us, like anxiety and depression, and getting to the root of what these mental and physical symptoms are telling us about the imbalance in our life.
In this podcast I speak with holistic board-certified psychiatrist, acupuncturist and yoga teacher Dr. Ellen Vora about how it is possible to learn to understand and manage our mental health by embracing these signals and listening to what they have to say, how facing the root of our fears and anxiety helps us find true healing, what a functional medicine approach to mental health looks like, why the current system of mental healthcare needs to change, the relationship between psychotropic medication, withdrawal and mental health, and more!

When we think of genes, we tend to think about the genes we do have and the ones we don’t have, not the genes we can change. But the truth is that we have a lot of control over our genetic activity. Yes, some genes we cannot do much about, but the vast majority of our DNA listens to us: our thoughts, choices and behavior. In this podcast I speak with Harvard professor, neuroscientist and researcher Dr. Rudolph E. Tanzi, one of Time Magazine’s 100 most influential people and founder of the field of neurogenetics, about the influence we have over our genetic activity, how our lifestyle impacts our wellbeing on the level of our DNA, how to keep our brains and bodies young and healthy, the relationship between spirituality and science, the power of mindful thinking, and so much more!

When it comes to our relationships, we often fall into the trap of behaving like we think we should, rather than getting to the root of why and how we really connect to other people. In this podcast episode I speak with international speaker and human connection specialist Mark Groves about the nature of human connection, common relationship mistakes we all make, how to improve our relationships, the difference between vulnerability and oversharing, how to embrace our emotions and connections, what women need to know about men and what men need to know about women, and so much more!

When it comes to our relationships, we often fall into the trap of behaving like we think we should, rather than getting to the root of why and how we really connect to other people. In this podcast episode I speak with international speaker and human connection specialist Mark Groves about the nature of human connection, common relationship mistakes we all make, how to improve our relationships, the difference between vulnerability and oversharing, how to embrace our emotions and connections, what women need to know about men and what men need to know about women, and so much more!

      <title>The best things to do to keep your mind &amp; brain healthy &amp; prevent neurodegeneration (Interview with Dr. Dale Bredesen)</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/The-best-things-to-do-to-keep-your-mind--brain-healthy--prevent-neurodegeneration-Interview-with-Dr--Dale-Bredesen-eju4mr</link>

Neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s can be incredibly frightening. The idea of losing your mind, the very thing that makes you human, is a scary thing, especially since it seems to happen more these days than ever before, and at a younger age. There is so much we don’t know about why this happens, or why Alzheimer’s is the 3rd leading causing of death in USA today. Brain diseases and cognitive decline are the last frontier: it is the area where we have been the least successful in science and medicine. 
But there is reason to hope! In this podcast, I speak with bestselling author and intentionally recognised neurodegenerative diseases expert Dr. Dale Bredesen about preventing and heal neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s, why we have misunderstood the true nature of cognitive decline, how to keep our brains young and healthy, and more!

Show description:  When it comes to our mental and physical health, we often focus on what we should eat, how much we should exercise, and how much we should meditate, and forget to take a good look at where we spend most of our time: our homes. In this podcast, I speak with Marilee Nelson, founder of Branch Basics, about how the hidden toxins in our home can affect our mental and physical wellbeing, how to keep our living spaces free of toxic chemicals and products, how to protect our brains and bodies outside of the home and more!

Show Description:  For many people, brain maps can be quite alien and strange. What are they telling us? What do they mean? Do all these shapes and colors and symbols mean there is something terribly wrong with me? It certainly doesn’t help when you read sensationalist headlines like “This is your brain on drugs!” or “This is what happens to your brain when you are stressed!”, which only serve to make us more nervous about what is happening between our ears. In this podcast, I speak with UCLA-trained neuroscientist, top performance coach and founder of The Peak Brain Institute Dr. Andrew Hill about what brain scans an tell us about our brain, the role they play in neurofeedback therapy, how neurofeedback and brain scans can boost our performance and help treat depression, anxiety, addiction and PTSD, the myth of the normal brain, how to biohack sleep, and so much more!

What are they telling us? What do they mean? Do all these shapes and colors and symbols mean there is something terribly wrong with me? It certainly doesn’t help when you read sensationalist headlines like “This is your brain on drugs!” or “This is what happens to your brain when you are stressed!”, which only serve to make us more nervous about what is happening between our ears. In this podcast, I speak with UCLA-trained neuroscientist, top performance coach and founder of The Peak Brain Institute Dr. Andrew Hill about what brain scans an tell us about our brain, the role they play in neurofeedback therapy, how neurofeedback and brain scans can boost our performance and help treat depression, anxiety, addiction and PTSD, the myth of the normal brain, how to biohack sleep, and so much more!  </p><p>For more info on Dr. Andrew &amp; his clinic visit: http://peakbraininstitute.com/ </p><p>Twitter: @PeakBrainLA Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PeakBrainInstitute </p><p>Instagram: @PeakBrainLA </p><p><br></p><p>Read the show blog here:  https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-neurofeedback-can-help-treat-depression-anxiety-addiction-amp-ptsd-interview-with-dr-andrew-hill</p><p><br></p><p>**Special offers from this episode's sponsors:** </p><p>-HIYA HEALTH (the best children's multivitamin!): Receive 50% off your first order.

Emotions are powerful; they can make us feel like the whole world is crashing in around us, keeping us feeling trapped, stuck and helpless if we don’t face or deal with them. Indeed, if we feel something strongly, it can be hard to see the wood from the trees—how do we even start to heal when everything hurts? In this podcast, I speak with The Tapping Solution founder Nick Ortner about how tapping can help us process our emotions and find healing, how it can improve our mental and physical health, how to get started tapping, the science behind tapping, how tapping can help with chronic pain, and more!

When it comes to building up our mental strength and resilience, we tend to focus too much on what we should do, and not enough on what we shouldn’t do. In this podcast, I speak with therapist, speaker and successful author Amy Morin about why it is important to be aware of our weaknesses if we want to become mentally stronger, how our bad habits can keep us trapped if we don’t identify them, how we can choose how we react to any situation, how to help our children build up their mental strength and resilience, how we can improve our mental strength during the current pandemic, and more!

      <title>What to do when wellness trends are harming, not helping, your mental health + The mental health benefits of being open-minded &amp; curious (Interview with mindbodygreen founder and co-CEO Jason Wachob)</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/What-to-do-when-wellness-trends-are-harming--not-helping--your-mental-health--The-mental-health-benefits-of-being-open-minded--curious-Interview-with-mindbodygreen-founder-and-co-CEO-Jason-Wachob-ejbedo</link>
      <description>The wellness world can be overwhelming. There is so much advice out there, much of which is conflicting, that it is sometimes hard to know what to do or even who to believe. It can also affect our mental health, making us feel guilty if something that promises to “change your life forever” doesn’t work for us, or if we fail to do all 700 things we need to do each day to be healthy. In this podcast, I speak with successful entrepreneur and founder of the global wellness platform MindBodyGreen Jason Wachob about this wellness paradox, the current state of wellness industry, how to avoid wellness fads and trends, how to navigate the wellness industry so it helps, not harms, your mental health, the importance of being open-minded and curious, the best wellness advice from top experts, how to run a successful business and more!

      <title>Signs someone may be self-harming &amp; how you can help + What to do if you, or someone you know is suicidal (Interview with therapist Kati Morton)</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Signs-someone-may-be-self-harming--how-you-can-help--What-to-do-if-you--or-someone-you-know-is-suicidal-Interview-with-therapist-Kati-Morton-ej7itj</link>
      <description>Suicide is a public health crisis with approximately 800,000 people dying by suicide each year. It is the 10th leading cause of deaths in the US and the 2nd leading cause of death globally. 
We all struggle with challenges in life, and find different ways to deal with and overcome these challenges. But what happens when our ability to cope turns toxic? What happens when our desire to survive ends up hurting us? In this podcast, I speak with therapist, author and grief counselor Kati Morten about self-harming behavior, how to identify and help someone who is self-harming, the difference between self-injuries and suicidal ideation, and what to do when someone you love is suicidal.

      <title>How to Overcome Emotional &amp; Compulsive Eating + Tips on How to Help Someone with an Eating Disorder Find Freedom with Food (with Certified Eating Psychology Coach Jessi Jean)</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-to-Overcome-Emotional--Compulsive-Eating--Tips-on-How-to-Help-Someone-with-an-Eating-Disorder-Find-Freedom-with-Food-with-Certified-Eating-Psychology-Coach-Jessi-Jean-ej0am7</link>
      <description>Food can bring people together—just try think about one major event or holiday that is not marked by a shared meal. However, for many people, food can also be crutch, something that holds them back and prevents them from living the life they want. In this podcast, I talk with certified eating psychology coach Jessi Jean about compulsive eating habits and self-sabotaging behaviors, emotional binging, the different kinds of eating disorders, why diets often don’t work, and how to find freedom with food.

In this podcast, I speak with social worker and bestselling author Elaine Birchall about the relationship between hoarding and mental health, practical strategies to regain control over the clutter, how to help someone who is hoarding, and so much more!

      <title>How to unsubscribe from toxic thinking with Harvard-trained psychologist Dr. Sasha Heinz</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-to-unsubscribe-from-toxic-thinking-with-Harvard-trained-psychologist-Dr--Sasha-Heinz-eib9h4</link>
      <description>2020 has definitely been one for the books, and it isn’t even over yet. Amid a global pandemic, so much is uncertain and unknown. What will the future look like? What will tomorrow look like? What will the world be like after all of this is over? It is not surprising that so many people are struggling with anxiety, grief, depression, anger and loneliness—we have all experienced low moments over the past few months. Thankfully, there is a way we can calm the mental chaos we are experiencing and take back control. In this week’s podcast and blog, I speak with Harvard-trained psychologist and health coach Dr. Sasha Heinz about why we struggle to get a handle on our anxiety, how to go from knowing what to do to doing it, how we can unsubscribe from our thoughts, how to handle pandemic fears and frustrations and what we can do now to create our own future, even when facing the unknown.

In this week’s podcast and blog, I speak with Harvard-trained psychologist and health coach Dr. Sasha Heinz about why we struggle to get a handle on our anxiety, how to go from knowing what to do to doing it, how we can unsubscribe from our thoughts, how to handle pandemic fears and frustrations and what we can do now to create our own future, even when facing the unknown. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read the show blog here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/title &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For more info on Dr. Sasha see here: https://drsashaheinz.com &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;**Special offers from this episode's sponsor:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-NOOM (the best healthy habit company!): For your NOOM special offer see: https://noom.com/DRLEAF &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;Podcast Highlights&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2:00 The intention-action gap, and how to overcome it&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;7:18 How to get unstuck &amp;amp; control the mental chaos&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;24:11 The different components of wellbeing&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;27:30 Why we need to think about our thinking&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;32:50 How to deal with grief and negative emotions&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;36:40 The difference between clean pain and dirty pain&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;40:35 How to unsubscribe from your own thoughts&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Additional resources: &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Sign up to join my free text program and receive mental health care tips and strategies, exclusive offers and more!

      <description>Being a parent can be challenging, especially when it comes to teaching your child how to handle the hard stuff in life. There is a thin line between being overprotective and being overcritical, and often there are situations where doing or saying the right thing seems impossible. In this week’s podcast, I speak with child psychologist and best-selling author Dr. Tina Payne Bryson about why we need to let our children experience negative emotions like anxiety and irritation, how to help anxious children, how to show up when your child is struggling, common parenting mistakes we all make and how we can avoid them and more!
Podcast Highlights
2:19 What is the science behind the “why” of parenting?
3:16 What is interpersonal neurobiology and why is it important as a parent?
6:00 What are some of the major issues parents face today, and what can they do about them?
46:00 Why the mind is so important when it comes to parenting
47:00 Rethinking discipline &amp; why punishment is not the answer

      <description>For many of us, a brain injury comes from something big: a car accident, a major fall or a sports injury. We don’t realize how common brain injuries actual are and how they can affect both our mental and physical wellbeing. In this podcast, I interviewed neuropathic physician Dr. Kabran Chapek about the relationship between head injuries, anxiety and other mental disorders, how to heal traumatic brain injuries and concussions, PTSD and brain injuries, natural treatment options, the importance of a holistic approach to brain injuries, and how it is never too late to heal the brain.
Highlights
12:01 Why we need to address mild and moderate brain injuries
13:40 What is a traumatic brain injury?
20:21 What happens in the brain injury right after an injury?
31:00 Hormone imbalance and TBI
34:15 TBIs and PTSD among veterans
36:30 A holistic approach to healing brain injuries
46:13 Healing &amp; preventing concussions

      <title>Managing Your Mental Health When Living with a Chronic Illness or Disability + How to Turn Any Challenge into an Opportunity (With Adam Bremen, Keto Krisp Founder)</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Managing-Your-Mental-Health-When-Living-with-a-Chronic-Illness-or-Disability--How-to-Turn-Any-Challenge-into-an-Opportunity-With-Adam-Bremen--Keto-Krisp-Founder-ehu5un</link>
      <description>On this podcast, I had the privilege of interviewing Keto Krisp founder and successful businessman Adam Bremen. This was definitely one of my favorite interviews, with the creator of my favorite keto snack bar! We discuss everything from finding the joy in life, how he overcame his disability, how keto changed his life and inspired him to start his company, why having fun in life and in business is so important, how to be a successful entrepreneur, his desire to celebrate and empower others to take charge of their health, how to build mental resilience when times are tough, what to say to someone who is going through a really tough time, and the power of learning to see the good in every situation.   
Adam learnt early on that life is about what you can do, not what you can’t do. Diagnosed at the age of 2 with cerebral palsy, he has learnt to overcome numerous odds, including life in a wheelchair. Thankfully, he grew up with a loving and supportive family who encouraged him to never put limits on himself, and to always find ways to celebrate his life and the lives of the people around him.

We discuss everything from finding the joy in life, how he overcame his disability, how keto changed his life and inspired him to start his company, why having fun in life and in business is so important, how to be a successful entrepreneur, his desire to celebrate and empower others to take charge of their health, how to build mental resilience when times are tough, what to say to someone who is going through a really tough time, and the power of learning to see the good in every situation.   </p><p>Adam learnt early on that life is about what you can do, not what you can’t do. Diagnosed at the age of 2 with cerebral palsy, he has learnt to overcome numerous odds, including life in a wheelchair. Thankfully, he grew up with a loving and supportive family who encouraged him to never put limits on himself, and to always find ways to celebrate his life and the lives of the people around him.    </p><p><br></p><p>**SPECIAL OFFERS FROM THIS WEEK'S SPONSORS**  </p><p>-HIYA HEALTH (the best children's multivitamin!): Receive 50% off your first order.

      <title>Healthy Venting vs. Emotional Dumping, Common Cognitive Errors That Cause Anxiety + Signs of Psychological Invalidation (Interview with Neuropsychologist Nawal Mustafa)</title>

      <description>We all have mental habits that are not so great—the things that keep us stuck, make us stressed out, impact our health and affect our relationships. Thankfully, we don’t have to stay “stuck” in these negative thinking patterns. In this podcast, I speak with clinical neuropsychologist, writer and mental health advocate Nawal Mustafa about common cognitive and thinking errors we all deal with and what we can do to overcome them, how to recognize and avoid psychological invalidation and gaslighting, the difference between healthy venting and emotional dumping, the best way to have difficult emotional discussions, and how to help your children speak about their feelings and experiences.

      <title>The Dangers of Toxic Positivity, Signs of Gaslighting + Tips on What NOT to Say to Someone Who is Grieving with Therapist Whitney Hawkins Goodman</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/The-Dangers-of-Toxic-Positivity--Signs-of-Gaslighting--Tips-on-What-NOT-to-Say-to-Someone-Who-is-Grieving-with-Therapist-Whitney-Hawkins-Goodman-ehmnii</link>
      <description>We have all heard the phrase “look on the bright side” at least once in our lives. And yes, sometimes we do need those little reminders to be positive: “stop and smell the roses”, “things will get better” and the “remember, the glass is half full”. But what happens when these reminders become toxic? What happens when positivity shuts down, rather than opens up, the path to healing? In this podcast, I talk with licensed marriage and family therapist Whitney Hawkins Goodman about the dangers of toxic positivity, the relationship between toxic positivity and gaslighting, how to be truly empathetic, the power of learning how to listen and how to comfort someone who is grieving.

In this podcast, I talk with licensed marriage and family therapist &lt;a href="https://www.theccc.miami/whitneygoodman?_ke="&gt;Whitney Hawkins Goodman&lt;/a&gt; about the dangers of toxic positivity, the relationship between toxic positivity and gaslighting, how to be truly empathetic, the power of learning how to listen and how to comfort someone who is grieving.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read the show blog here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-dangers-of-toxic-positivity-signs-of-gaslighting-tips-on-what-not-to-say-to-someone-who-is-grieving-with-therapist-whitney-hawkins-goodman&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For more info on Whitney visit her website: &lt;a href="http://www.theccc.miami/"&gt;www.theccc.miami&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Her online store:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://sitwithwhit.mykajabi.com/store"&gt;https://sitwithwhit.mykajabi.com/store&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whitney's Instagram: @sitwithwhit&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whitney's Facebook: @sitwithwhitney&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;**Special offers from this episode's sponsor:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SEED (the best company for a healthy gut!)&lt;/strong&gt;: Visit&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://trk.klclick2.com/ls/click?upn=MmY-2FnptVtHRyKtjJtU1ebdpvQs3PSXGnMN7v52ePh-2FbZcnHdrbfKn6uGATjRKJrdK7Ihjm0gPTdccG4e-2FNulWJCxZAt67EFt692sOF2BHoz-2BdnqdTB4kbNr15p7Re5tnXOxdOCA9MVBR2aMufymYNYMOSaP86GXqV-2BeiGNSVw1I-3DG6qT_Ax-2FA2qB5XxIif0IVCV8oUyjHrcnlzjXWS7Y2GCv6POzseLtuqe0H-2FcSpDYs3C97YgpAAdPDsMI0A-2B6-2F8TslxOvq9jFwij60hLTpTGj92k-2B3uoe-2FJkQoT-2BfP3nqOKIy3PVrNqQeHI2yMtebygL7ReXD1-2BDBiDGSuR9ATDWl4K0RXTC8LRY-2BYayW1YQBcwQtuZFvgAJfF0M9LVSUNVonqQ-2B1xIS9DK0iZWENjE5DMoJWFgfgPKg4t1DWMHzl64JOMjXBzpSeYS-2FNmt5uFzLTXA4gpxKqLJAs9gugojwvcWS3vMAx7iw8pTdKgCre4opMwwFKRJmPGEv-2BnHr133n7Su8KVAwy0fJUMOOAjVEdrYziX-2BDFYzoP9uYx8Rh7E-2B-2Fcg2C8LwZD7-2BfCYrszJrudy9KA-3D-3D&amp;amp;_ke="&gt;https://seed.com&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and use code MENTALMESS for 15% off your first month of the Daily Synbiotic&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;Podcast Highlights&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1:42&lt;/strong&gt; Why Whitney thinks it is important to talk about our emotions and mental health&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2:40 &lt;/strong&gt;What is toxic positivity?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;13:30&lt;/strong&gt; How can you train yourself to become more aware of your intentions?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;14:55 &lt;/strong&gt;What is the difference between shame and guilt, and what do they have to do with toxic positivity?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;17:31 &lt;/strong&gt;What is gaslighting?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;19:11&lt;/strong&gt; Gaslighting and racism&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;21:34&lt;/strong&gt; How to help someone who is grieving&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Additional resources:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Sign up to join my free text program and receive mental health care tips and strategies, exclusive offers and more!

      <itunes:summary>We have all heard the phrase “look on the bright side” at least once in our lives. And yes, sometimes we do need those little reminders to be positive: “stop and smell the roses”, “things will get better” and the “remember, the glass is half full”.

In this podcast, I talk with licensed marriage and family therapist Whitney Hawkins Goodman about the dangers of toxic positivity, the relationship between toxic positivity and gaslighting, how to be truly empathetic, the power of learning how to listen and how to comfort someone who is grieving.

      <title>How to End the Pandemic of Poor Mindsets + The Best Tips For Dealing with Criticism and Failure from Tom Bilyeu</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-to-End-the-Pandemic-of-Poor-Mindsets--The-Best-Tips-For-Dealing-with-Criticism-and-Failure-from-Tom-Bilyeu-ehirju</link>
      <description>Your mindsets have the power to take you places you never imagined you would go, or hold you back from those places, keeping you stuck in a hamster wheel of fear, anxiety and depression. But how do you learn how to choose the right mindsets to make you successful and help you find fulfillment?
In this podcast, I spoke to media mogul, entrepreneur, filmmaker and leading motivational speaker Tom Bilyeu about the power of choosing the right mindset, how we can take back control over our lives and tell our own stories, how to build up mental resilience and overcome negative thinking, why learning is so powerful, why we all need to embrace our failures and how constructive criticism can help develop our passion and grow.

      <title>A Conversation with Bishop T.D. Jakes on Mental Health, Spirituality &amp; Racism + How He Deals with Anxiety</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/A-Conversation-with-Bishop-T-D--Jakes-on-Mental-Health--Spirituality--Racism--How-He-Deals-with-Anxiety-eh8dup</link>
      <description>For many of us, spirituality brings comfort and peace in times of trouble—our belief systems support us and hold us up when things get rough. But can the same be said for our society as a whole? Can faith and love win in a highly anxious, depressed and tribalistic culture? In this podcast, I speak with best-selling author, respected spiritual leader and global activist Bishop T.D. Jakes about mental health and spirituality, the power of rest, why boundaries help us be better people, racism and the church’s shortcomings, and what we can all do to bring about change and make our society a more enriching place for all people.

      <itunes:summary>For many of us, spirituality brings comfort and peace in times of trouble—our belief systems support us and hold us up when things get rough. But can the same be said for our society as a whole? Can faith and love win in a highly anxious, depressed and tribalistic culture?

Jakes about mental health and spirituality, the power of rest, why boundaries help us be better people, racism and the church’s shortcomings, and what we can all do to bring about change and make our society a more enriching place for all people.

Show notes:   
Let’s face it: life is tough, especially these days. There is so many issues we must deal with, from loneliness during a global pandemic, to addictive behaviours, codependency, worrying about the future and dealing with negative emotions—the list seems endless. Thankfully, we can face whatever life throws our way, as I discuss in this  podcast with therapist Amanda White. It is possible to unlearn addiction, to get to the root of negative behaviors like eating disorders and codependency, to stop the worry cycle, to face and deal with our emotions and to heal our minds and lives. We don’t have to stay “stuck” in a bad place; we don’t have to be defined by what happens to us!  Amanda also shares some great tips on how to deal with guilt and shame, the difference between the two, and how to deal with loneliness.

Podcast Highlights 
1:45 Why we need to talk about the overlap between addiction and eating disorders  
2:48 How Amanda overcame her eating disorder  
5:42 Addiction as a learned behavior 
8:58 What it the recovery time for addiction? 
10:44 What is codependency? 
21:00 What is the difference between shame and guilt? 
32:22 Dealing with loneliness 
47:30 What is the difference between worrying and planning?

      <title>Can Micro-Dosing Psychedelics Help Improve Mental Health? How to Safely Micro-Dose + Common Psychedelic Myths Debunked (with Paul Austin, Founder of Thirdwave)</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Can-Micro-Dosing-Psychedelics-Help-Improve-Mental-Health--How-to-Safely-Micro-Dose--Common-Psychedelic-Myths-Debunked-with-Paul-Austin--Founder-of-Thirdwave-egvjds</link>
      <description>In this podcast, I speak with Paul Austin from The ThirdWave (a company that focuses on providing resources for safe, structured, and responsible psychedelic use) about the relationship between psychedelics and mental health, the different types of psychedelics and what they can be used for, how psychedelics can help overcome trauma and addiction, and how the responsible use of psychedelics can help us become more integrated mentally and physically and connected to the world around us. We also discuss how psychedelics can help with neuroplasticity, impact epigenetics, and how to safely micro-dose. 
This information is intended for educational purposes only. I understand that in many areas of the world the use of different kinds of psychedelics are prohibited or illegal; as a company we do not promote illegal activity. I do, however, believe that it is important to have this conversation, and think of ways we can help everyone improve their mental health and find satisfaction and purpose. This is why I strongly believe we need to reduce the stigma around talking about psychedelics and researching safe and responsible ways we can use them to help people manage their minds and live their best lives.

The word “sensitive” has both positive and negative connotations in our society, from statements like “he’s such a sensitive person” to phrases like “don’t be so sensitive!”. Yet the nature of human sensitivity is often misunderstood, especially when it comes to recognizing and dealing with highly sensitive people.  As I discuss in this podcast with psychologist and best-selling author Dr. Elaine Aron, a significant percentage of the population (regardless of gender, race or nationality) are highly sensitive individuals, although many of them don’t know they are highly sensitive, or what that means for the way they interact with others, express their emotions, deal with disapproval or parent their children. In this podcast Dr. Elaine shares some great tips and techniques for those who identify as highly sensitive, tips for highly sensitive parents, what NOT to say to someone who is highly sensitive, the benefits of being highly sensitive, and so much more!

In this podcast Dr. Elaine shares some great tips and techniques for those who identify as highly sensitive, tips for highly sensitive parents, what NOT to say to someone who is highly sensitive, the benefits of being highly sensitive, and so much more!</p><p>Read the full show blog and transcript here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/tips-amp-techniques-for-highly-sensitive-people-and-parents-what-not-to-say-to-a-highly-sensitive-person-and-the-benefits-of-being-highly-sensitive-with-dr-elaine-aron  </p><p>For more info on Dr. Elaine and to get her books visit:https://hsperson.com/about-dr-elaine-aron/    </p><p><br></p><p>Special offers from this week's sponsors:  </p><p>-Feals CBD (the best CBD out there!): To get 50% off your Feals CBD order and free shipping see https://feals.com/drleaf.

A Few Podcast Highlights
5:11 About The Black Mental Wellness Corporation
8:54 How people are starting to talk about mental health more openly in the Black community, and why there is reason to hope that things are changing. The more we normalize these conversations, the more we break the stigma surrounding mental health issues.
10:32 Why we all need to have more discussions and get more comfortable talking about mental health issues, and why it is important that these conversations are inclusive, equitable and diverse.
11:12, 59:00 Why in the past people of color have just been expected to “cope” with their trauma, and why there is a lot of mistrust in the Black community when it comes to our current healthcare system.
32:20 How white people can be better allies

There is a lot of talk these day about the expectations we place on all sexes, and how this can impact our mental and physical wellbeing. Thankfully, we can break free of these expectations and learn to find our own identity and way in life—we don’t have to be who the world says we should be! In this podcast, in honor of Father’s Day and Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, I spoke to therapist and bestselling author John Kim about men’s mental wellbeing, the stigma associated with men’s mental health, how to break the cycle of toxic masculinity, how fathers can improve their relationships with their sons, how to be better parents and the power of knowing who you are as a man in today’s world.

Podcast Highlights 
1:53 Why John is a therapist who went rogue 
6:38 How John went from being miserable to finding joy in life 9:08 Why help is never just one-sided 
9:32 What is toxic masculinity? 
12:46 Why is men’s emotional wellbeing important? 
14:57 How John overcame his own toxic masculinity 
20:00 How do we break generational patterns? 
23:59 The power of facing your own resistance 
25:40 Tips for parents 
29:40 Breaking the toxic masculinity cycle 
36:50 Advice for fathers who have sons 38:26 How to grow as a person

There is a lot of talk these day about the expectations we place on all sexes, and how this can impact our mental and physical wellbeing. Thankfully, we can break free of these expectations and learn to find our own identity and way in life—we don’t have to be who the world says we should be! In this podcast, in honor of Father’s Day and Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, I spoke to therapist and bestselling author John Kim about men’s mental wellbeing, the stigma associated with men’s mental health, how to break the cycle of toxic masculinity, how fathers can improve their relationships with their sons, how to be better parents and the power of knowing who you are as a man in today’s world.

Podcast Highlights 
1:53 Why John is a therapist who went rogue 
6:38 How John went from being miserable to finding joy in life 9:08 Why help is never just one-sided 
9:32 What is toxic masculinity? 
12:46 Why is men’s emotional wellbeing important? 
14:57 How John overcame his own toxic masculinity 
20:00 How do we break generational patterns? 
23:59 The power of facing your own resistance 
25:40 Tips for parents 
29:40 Breaking the toxic masculinity cycle 
36:50 Advice for fathers who have sons 38:26 How to grow as a person

      <title>High Functioning Anxiety: Signs, Symptoms, and Solutions + How to Silence Your Inner Critic, Overcome Perfectionism and People-pleasing, and Avoid Burnout with Therapist Nancy Jane Smith</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/High-Functioning-Anxiety-Signs--Symptoms--and-Solutions--How-to-Silence-Your-Inner-Critic--Overcome-Perfectionism-and-People-pleasing--and-Avoid-Burnout-with-Therapist-Nancy-Jane-Smith-efiu5f</link>
      <description>We all know those people that are always on the go: they never seem to rest, they are always busy doing something and they seem to accomplish so much. Perhaps you are one of those people! But did you know that this could also be a sign of high-functioning anxiety? In this podcast, I speak to therapist and licensed counselor Nancy Jane Smith about the signs and symptoms of high-functioning anxiety and how to overcome it, as well as how to deal with perfectionism, people-pleasing and avoid burnout. 
High functioning anxiety is a form of anxiety that you won’t get diagnosed with, but it is similar to generalized anxiety, and also involves gastro symptoms, headaches, panic attacks, racing thoughts and so on. It is essentially a way of coping that pushes you harder and faster, which often leads to perfectionism, people-pleasing and burnout. On the outside everything may look great, but, on the inside, everything is falling apart, which is why high functioning anxiety is so hard to recognize. In fact, a lot of people aren’t aware that you don’t have to live with this kind of “hustle, hustle, hustle” mentality this because they do not share how they feel with the people in their lives.

We also discus how to deal with the loss of a job, a routine, financial security and more!Special offers from our sponsors:  Blinkist (my favorite reading app): To get your free week on Blinkist AND 25% off your subscription see: https://www.blinkist.com/nc/partners/cleaning-up-the-mental-mess  NOOM (the best healthy habit company): For your NOOM special offer see: https://noom.com/drleaf   Podcast Highlights 2:13 How losing her parents to cancer motivated Claire to help others deal with grief 7:00 What is grief, and is it a progression? 9:30 Why even kids experience grief, and how to help your children deal with grief 13:15 What advice should you give to a loved one who is grieving, and how do you deal with grieving in isolation? 16:10 Grief and anxiety: how are they related? 20:15, 44:31 How anxiety is inextricably linked to grief, and how to deal with both 40:00 How do you deal with the guilt that often comes with remarriage? 47:00 How do we deal with the COVID-19 transition period?48:33 What is Claire struggling with right now, and how is she dealing with the COVID-19 crisis?   For more info on Claire and to get her book visit: https://clairebidwellsmith.com  Read the full blog and show notes here:   https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-deal-with-loss-grief-how-unresolved-grief-could-be-causing-anxiety-problems-tips-on-how-to-help-your-children-deal-with-loss-grief-with-grief-expert-therapist-claire-bidwell-smith     Additional Resources:  -Get my new brain detox app SWITCH on sale now!

      <title>How to begin unwiring racism from our brains and society: a conversation with my two African American sons-in-law</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-to-begin-unwiring-racism-from-our-brains-and-society-a-conversation-with-my-two-African-American-sons-in-law-eevjrk</link>
      <description>Racial prejudice doesn't just hurt the person who is victimized by it, it also impacts the person who inflicts the pain, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Toxic, biased mindsets are real things: they are built into the structures of brain, affecting how we see and interact with the world, which can affect our mental and physical health. Thankfully, we can rewire these mindsets and start changing the way we live, and the way we participate in society. But that's only if we are willing to put in the work to do so.

Unwiring prejudice and racial bias from our brains and societies begins with deep, honest conversations, and I hope that this discussion with my two wonderful sons-in-law will impact you as much as it did me.  In this episode we discuss what it is like to be a black man in America, why we are talking about black lives matter and what does it really mean, police brutality and what we can do to change the system, how racism affects our mental health, dealing with trauma, what is going on with the current protests, what is privilege, racism in the church, how to empathize with people whose experiences are different to ours, and some things we can start doing now to end systematic racial bias and its effects.  I hope you will watch or listen with an open mind and an open heart. We are not trying to deny anyone's experiences, judge anyone or silence anyone. We are just trying to focus on what we can do to change something that has gone on way too long, at too great a cost.

      <itunes:subtitle>&lt;p&gt;Racial prejudice doesn't just hurt the person who is victimized by it, it also impacts the person who inflicts the pain, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Toxic, biased mindsets are real things: they are built into the structures of brain, affecting how we see and interact with the world, which can affect our mental and physical health. Thankfully, we can rewire these mindsets and start changing the way we live, and the way we participate in society. But that's only if we are willing to put in the work to do so.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Unwiring prejudice and racial bias from our brains and societies begins with deep, honest conversations, and I hope that this discussion with my two wonderful sons-in-law will impact you as much as it did me. &amp;nbsp;In this episode we discuss what it is like to be a black man in America, why we are talking about black lives matter and what does it really mean, police brutality and what we can do to change the system, how racism affects our mental health, dealing with trauma, what is going on with the current protests, what is privilege, racism in the church, how to empathize with people whose experiences are different to ours, and some things we can start doing now to end systematic racial bias and its effects. &amp;nbsp;I hope you will watch or listen with an open mind and an open heart. We are not trying to deny anyone's experiences, judge anyone or silence anyone. We are just trying to focus on what we can do to change something that has gone on way too long, at too great a cost. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read Jay's blog here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/can-i-switch-off-my-brain-being-black-in-america-is-tiring-even-during-a-pandemic?_ke= &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read Eli's blog here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-money-fuels-police-brutality-against-people-of-color-and-how-we-can-fight-back?_ke= &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read a personal letter from me here: &amp;nbsp;https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/a-personal-letter-from-me?_ke= &amp;nbsp;Additional stories and blogs worth reading: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Where you can donate today: &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Equal Justice Initiative: https://eji.org/?_ke&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Minnesota Freedom Fund: https://minnesotafreedomfund.org/?_ke=&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-George Floyd Memorial Fund: https://www.gofundme.com/f/georgefloyd?_ke=&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Campaign Zero: https://www.joincampaignzero.org/?_ke=&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Reclaim the Block: https://www.reclaimtheblock.org/home?_ke=&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--NAACP: https://www.naacp.org&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Additional mental health resources and counseling options:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- Free therapy for communities of color Text NOSTIGMA to 707070&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;-BetterHelp online therapy: https://trybetterhelp.com/drleaf -Inclusive Therapists: https://www.inclusivetherapists.com/?_ke=&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;-Alyssa Marie Wellness: https://www.alyssamariewellness.com/?_ke=&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Full Circle Therapy Services: https://www.fullcircletherapyservices.com&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;-Crisis text hotline: Text SHARE to 741741 for free, fast, and confidential crisis counseling&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-Melanin And Mental Health: -https://www.melaninandmentalhealth.com/?_ke&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Additional reading materials: &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/29/books/review/antiracist-reading-list-ibram-x-kendi.html&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-https://www.theguardian.com/books/booksblog/2020/jun/03/do-the-work-an-anti-racist-reading-list-layla-f-saad&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Helpful podcasts to listen to: https://www.elle.com/culture/movies-tv/g32732684/anti-racism-podcasts/&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This episode was made possible by our sponsor Feals CBD&amp;nbsp;(the best CBD out there!):&amp;nbsp;To get 50% off your&amp;nbsp;Feals CBD&amp;nbsp;order and free shipping see&amp;nbsp;https://feals.com/drleaf. &amp;nbsp;Have questions about CBD?

Episode description:  Mental health is a hot topic these days, especially considering the current COVID-19 pandemic, and the enforced social separation and isolation many of us have experienced over the past several months. Even though things are starting to open in many places, we all are facing a world which is dramatically different to the one we knew before the pandemic—so many things are uncertain, which only exacerbates our collective mental distress. Thankfully, as I discuss in this week’s blog and podcast with world-renowned psychiatrist, brain specialist and best-selling author Dr. Daniel Amen, there are ways we can take our mental and brain health into our own hands! The human brain is remarkably resilient: over time we can heal our minds and find freedom, purpose and renewal in an imperfect world.

      <title>How to test your stress levels using your urine pH + how to heal hormonal imbalances that may be making you moody and anxious (with Dr. Anna Cabeca OB-GYN and hormone expert)</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-to-test-your-stress-levels-using-your-urine-pH--how-to-heal-hormonal-imbalances-that-may-be-making-you-moody-and-anxious-with-Dr--Anna-Cabeca-OB-GYN-and-hormone-expert-eejdfo</link>
      <description>We all know that our hormones are important, but did you know that they can impact our mood and mental health as well? In this podcast, I spoke to Dr. Anna Cabeca, an OB-GYN, bestselling author and hormone expert, about the neuroendocrine system, how our hormones affect our mood and mental wellbeing, how the keto diet boosts brain energy and can help us lose weight and what our urine says about our stress levels.  Dr. Anna’s desire to help others was inspired by her own life story. After the traumatic death of her young son, Anna’s health started declining as she went through PTSD-induced early menopause. Even though she was a highly-qualified doctor who trained at one of the best schools in the country, she was at a loss: nothing was working, so she went around the world looking for answers.  During her healing journey, Dr. Anna began to realize the importance of lifestyle choices and habits, and the impact they have on our hormonal health and mental and physical wellbeing. She recognized the importance of a holistic mind and body approach to health, and now teaches others how they too can heal and live their best lives! This podcast was made possible by our sponsor Kettle &amp; Fire- my all time favorite bone broth company! To get 15% off your Kettle &amp; Fire bone broth order see: Kettleandfire.com/drleaf or use code DRLEAF at checkout.    Podcast Time Stamps4:20 Why Dr. Anna has always loved medicine, and how her own struggles inspired her to help others8:20 The Hormone Fix, and how to deal with negative effects of perimenopause and menopause13:31 Hormones and mental health: how are they connected and what you can do about it20:09 Cortisol: the good, the bad and the ugly22:01 Insulin resistance, hormonal imbalance and weight gain32:22 What your urine pH says about your stress levels   36:07 What are bioidentical hormones and why are they important?42:20 Is the keto diet good for our hormones? Read the full show blog and transcript here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/is-a-hormonal-imbalance-making-you-moody-anxious-and-overweight-the-hormonal-problem-and-solution-with-dr-anna-cabeca-ob-gyn-and-hormone-expert  For more info on Dr. Anna and to get her books visit: https://drannacabeca.com  Additional Resources: -Join my text group for more tips, notifications of sales, and more!

Just text DRLEAF to 80519  Fighting injustice and fighting for what you believe often sounds exciting, but it can come at a great cost. Yet the cost of being inauthentic, of denying who you are and what you believe in, is often greater, and can keep you in bondage, as I discuss in this week’s blog and podcast with speaker, NY Times best-selling author and top podcast host Jen Hatmaker. As Jen discusses in her amazing new book Fierce, Free and Full of Fire: The Guide to Being Gloriously You, even though standing up for what you believe is right and embracing who you are and what you want in life can be challenging, the struggle is worth it. On the other side you will find beauty, fulfillment and true freedom.  This week's podcast is made possible by our sponsor BiOptimizers (my favorite supplement company)!

      <title>How to Learn Faster, Memorize Anything, and Upgrade Your Brain to Become Limitless with Top Brain Coach Jim Kwik</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-to-Learn-Faster--Memorize-Anything--and-Upgrade-Your-Brain-to-Become-Limitless-with-Top-Brain-Coach-Jim-Kwik-eejdk6</link>
      <description>Learning can be challenging, but did you know it can also be fun and empowering, taking you places you have never been before and helping you achieve your goals and dreams? In this podcast, I spoke with master brain coach, top podcast host and NY Times bestselling author Jim Kwik about how learning how to learn is one of the best things we can do for our mental and brain health, why our ability to use knowledge is our superpower, and how the brain is truly limitless, allowing us to be as intelligent as we want to be! As a child, Jim suffered from several traumatic brain injuries, when affected his ability to perform in school. Eventually, his desperation led to his inspiration: Jim set out to understand how the brain and memory work, and how to learn how to learn. As he notes, this is something that is not often taught in schools, where we are given lots of knowledge to learn, but are not taught how to make the most of this knowledge. Indeed, many of us incorrectly assume that intelligence is something that we are either born with or not, that it is a “fixed” thing, and that is why some people do well and others fail.  Yet, as Jim has shown in his own life, which he describes in his incredible book Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life, he went from being the “boy with the broken brain” to a world-renowned memory champion and brain coach who has developed a reliable and scientifically sound set of tools to enhance memory formation and learning. He now teaches his techniques to others with astonishing results, and is an in-demand speaker, a brain coach for celebrities and CEOs, the head of a large online learning program, and the host of a podcast with tens of millions of listeners! Special offers from our show sponsors: -Thrive Market (the best site for healthy, organic and affordable groceries and beauty products!): Join today and you’ll get up to twenty dollars in shopping credit toward your first order at thrivemarket.com/drleaf.   -BLUblox (the best glasses to reduce your exposure to harmful blue and green light!): To get 15% off your BLUblox glasses use the code LEAF15 at checkout: https://www.blublox.com  Podcast Time Stamps2:48 How Jim’s inspiration was his desperation, and what he did to overcome his traumatic brain injuries 12:00 Why intelligence is not fixed16:00 The 7 main lies we believe about the brain, and how to overcome them 24:32 The question is not how smart you are, but how are you smart?28:10 Why our mistakes are not our failures36:00 Genius is built, not born, and why intelligence takes hard work, determination and practice39:00 The power of mindsets, motivation and methods, and how they can make you limitless59:04 The fun ancient Greek memorization technique that can help you remember anything! Read the show blog and transcript here:https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-learn-faster-memorize-anything-and-upgrade-your-brain-to-become-limitless-with-top-brain-coach-jim-kwik  For more info on Jim and to get his book visit: LimitlessBook.com And follow Jim on social media: @JimKwik and FB is @JimKwikOfficial   Additional Resources: -Join my text group for more tips, notifications of sales, and more!

      <title>How Fiber Can Improve Your Mental and Brain Health + Tips on Boosting Gut Health and Overcoming Food Sensitivities with GI Specialist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-Fiber-Can-Improve-Your-Mental-and-Brain-Health--Tips-on-Boosting-Gut-Health-and-Overcoming-Food-Sensitivities-with-GI-Specialist-Dr--Will-Bulsiewicz-eejde1</link>
      <description>We all know fiber is good for us, but did you also know that it can help with your mental health? In this week’s blog and podcast, I speak with GI specialist and epidemiologist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz about how a high-fiber diet can help boost mental and brain health, heal food sensitivities and reduce inflammation in the brain and body! In his amazing new book, Fiber Fueled: The Plant-Based Gut Health Program for Losing Weight, Restoring Your Health, and Optimizing Your Microbiome, Dr. B notes how even though he was very successful as a medical doctor, his processed food diet was making him miserable, tired and anxious. When he met his wife, he began to understand how real, healthy whole foods could transform his life, which led him on the path he is on today: meeting people where they are in their journey and helping them live their best and healthiest lives. As Dr. B points out, although the current healthcare system is really good at treating acute illnesses, it falls short when it comes to preventative medicine and chronic health issues. Indeed, as a medical doctor with multiple qualifications, he was taught little about the impact lifestyle choices such as diet and exercise could impact our mental and physical health! Thankfully, times are changing, especially as more and more research is being published on the importance of our lifestyle choices. We now know that pills and procedures are not everything; around 20% of diseases are genetic, which means 80% are related to our diet and lifestyle. This is great news! It means that our health is largely in our hands, which very empowering.  Podcast Time Stamps:6:25 What transformed Dr. B’s life, and why he loves helping people regain their health and live their best life18:02 What is the difference between disease prevention and disease management?24:29 The gut-brain connection, and why your gut should be your brain’s best friend30:22 The gut is an endocrine organ, as much as the ovaries and testes are30:50 The gut produces post-biotics, which happens when you combine prebiotics and probiotics37:00 What is the one golden rule when it comes to eating?43:50 Is meat okay to eat?48:22 Food sensitivities and what you can do about them55:00 How fiber-rich diets can prevent heart disease57:20 Why diet is not everything1:00:00 Current health trends to be excited about and health trends to avoid1:02:02 What if you live in a food desert?  For more info on Dr. Will and to get his new book visit: https://theplantfedgut.com   And follow him on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theguthealthmd/  Read the full episode blog and transcript here:https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-fiber-can-improve-your-mental-and-brain-health-tips-on-boosting-gut-health-and-overcoming-food-sensitivities-with-gi-specialist-dr-will-bulsiewicz    This episode was made possible by the following sponsors: -Blinkist (my favorite reading app): To get your free week on Blinkist AND 25% off your subscription see: https://www.blinkist.com/nc/partners/cleaning-up-the-mental-mess   -NOOM (the best healthy habit company): For your NOOM special offer see: https://noom.com/drleaf   Additional Resources: -Join my text group for more tips, notifications of sales, and more!

        <![CDATA[We all know fiber is good for us, but did you also know that it can help with your mental health? In this week’s blog and podcast, I speak with GI specialist and epidemiologist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz about how a high-fiber diet can help boost mental and brain health, heal food sensitivities and reduce inflammation in the brain and body! In his amazing new book, Fiber Fueled: The Plant-Based Gut Health Program for Losing Weight, Restoring Your Health, and Optimizing Your Microbiome, Dr. B notes how even though he was very successful as a medical doctor, his processed food diet was making him miserable, tired and anxious. When he met his wife, he began to understand how real, healthy whole foods could transform his life, which led him on the path he is on today: meeting people where they are in their journey and helping them live their best and healthiest lives. As Dr. B points out, although the current healthcare system is really good at treating acute illnesses, it falls short when it comes to preventative medicine and chronic health issues. Indeed, as a medical doctor with multiple qualifications, he was taught little about the impact lifestyle choices such as diet and exercise could impact our mental and physical health! Thankfully, times are changing, especially as more and more research is being published on the importance of our lifestyle choices. We now know that pills and procedures are not everything; around 20% of diseases are genetic, which means 80% are related to our diet and lifestyle. This is great news! It means that our health is largely in our hands, which very empowering.  Podcast Time Stamps:6:25 What transformed Dr. B’s life, and why he loves helping people regain their health and live their best life18:02 What is the difference between disease prevention and disease management?24:29 The gut-brain connection, and why your gut should be your brain’s best friend30:22 The gut is an endocrine organ, as much as the ovaries and testes are30:50 The gut produces post-biotics, which happens when you combine prebiotics and probiotics37:00 What is the one golden rule when it comes to eating?43:50 Is meat okay to eat?48:22 Food sensitivities and what you can do about them55:00 How fiber-rich diets can prevent heart disease57:20 Why diet is not everything1:00:00 Current health trends to be excited about and health trends to avoid1:02:02 What if you live in a food desert?  For more info on Dr. Will and to get his new book visit: https://theplantfedgut.com   And follow him on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theguthealthmd/  Read the full episode blog and transcript here:https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-fiber-can-improve-your-mental-and-brain-health-tips-on-boosting-gut-health-and-overcoming-food-sensitivities-with-gi-specialist-dr-will-bulsiewicz    This episode was made possible by the following sponsors: -Blinkist (my favorite reading app): To get your free week on Blinkist AND 25% off your subscription see: https://www.blinkist.com/nc/partners/cleaning-up-the-mental-mess   -NOOM (the best healthy habit company): For your NOOM special offer see: https://noom.com/drleaf   Additional Resources: -Join my text group for more tips, notifications of sales, and more!

      <title>Why Depression, Anxiety, and Alzheimer’s are More Common in Women + How to Protect Women’s Brains from Aging and Disease with Dr. Lisa Mosconi</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Why-Depression--Anxiety--and-Alzheimers-are-More-Common-in-Women--How-to-Protect-Womens-Brains-from-Aging-and-Disease-with-Dr--Lisa-Mosconi-eekvq5</link>
      <description>Science is science, right? Unfortunately, this is not always the case, especially when it comes to women’s health. Our understanding of the human brain and body has been clouded by years of gender bias—for decades many scientists and doctors have assumed that men and women are really the same, except for the bits and bobs that can be covered by a bikini. Yet, as this podcast guest and renowned researcher Dr. Lisa Mosconi points out, this kind of “bikini science” has dramatic implications for women’s mental and physical health that go beyond our reproductive organs, affecting every part of the brain and body.  Dr. Lisa Mosconi, PhD, is the Director of the Women’s Brain Initiative and Associate Director of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Clinic at Weill Cornell Medical College (WCMC)/NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, where she serves as an Associate Professor of Neuroscience in Neurology and Radiology. She is also an adjunct faculty member at the Department of Psychiatry at New York University (NYU) School of Medicine, and at the Department of Nutrition at NYU Steinhardt School of Nutrition and Public Health. Dr. Mosconi holds a PhD degree in Neuroscience and Nuclear Medicine, and is a certified Integrative Nutritionist and holistic healthcare practitioner.Her expertise lies in examining the way gender impacts the health of the brain and body, and in overcoming the massive gender gap in the world of medicine. As she describes in her amazing book, The XX Brain, since the time of Darwin there was a long-held assumption that women’s brains are inferior because they are smaller, but women are generally smaller than men, which was not taken into account for decades, and still persists subconsciously in many areas of medicine and neuroscience. Podcast Time Stamps3:10 Why Lisa wanted to be a scientist and study the human mind and brain9:22 Why Alzheimer’s is not just a result of genetic mutations and old age12:12 The difference between early onset and late onset dementia14:56 Why you should be careful of taking genetic tests like 23 &amp; me21:26 Why most research is done on men and the disaster at the heart of medicine32:54 The communication between the female brain and the female reproductive system, and why our hormones are crucial for brain health40:11 The brain in middle-aged women, and how menopause can contribute to cognitive decline47:25 How you as a woman can take back your health and prevent memory loss!59:00 How chronic stress impacts our hormones and brain health1:07:25 The power of the X gene, and why women have more genes than men For more info on Dr. Lisa Mosconi and to get her book visit: https://www.lisamosconi.com Read the show blog and transcript here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/why-is-depression-anxiety-and-alzheimer-s-more-common-in-women-how-to-protect-women-s-brains-from-aging-and-disease-with-dr-lisa-mosconi  This podcast was made possible by our sponsor ThirdLove: Comfortable bras are so hard to find, which is why I am a big fan of ThirdLove!

      <title>How to Heal From Trauma, Signs of Secondary Trauma, and How EMDR can Help with Trauma Recovery and PTSD with Therapist and Trauma Expert Alyssa Mancao</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/How-to-Heal-From-Trauma--Signs-of-Secondary-Trauma--and-How-EMDR-can-Help-with-Trauma-Recovery-and-PTSD-with-Therapist-and-Trauma-Expert-Alyssa-Mancao-eejdms</link>
      <description>For many of us, trauma is something with a capital “T”, a big event or situation, such as a car accident or pandemic, that impacts us in dramatic and unforeseen ways. Yet, as I discuss in this week’s blog and podcast with licensed clinical social worker and therapist Alyssa Mancao, trauma with a lowercase “t” is something many people have to deal with on a daily basis. This kind of trauma, institutional or otherwise, is often normalised and suppressed, which can have a lasting impact on someone’s mental and physical health, compelling them to fight for survival in the face of persistent stressors in their environment. Thankfully, as Alyssa has seen in her social work and her private practice, many people, given the right help, can and do recover from trauma and learn how to reconnect to themselves and their communities in deep and meaningful ways. How? Alyssa focuses on bringing back the human element in therapy, going beyond evidence-based practices and focusing on the individual’s unique story and experiences. She recognizes that many of the people she works with are dealing with little traumas like bullying and failed relationships on a daily basis, and that their mental and physical symptoms are a function of survival.  Podcast Time Stamps4:15 How Alyssa’s clients gave her hope, and the power of human resilience 5:46 What Alyssa thinks about evidence-based therapy and why she started her own therapy practice9:33 The difference between little traumas and big Trauma14:41 What is EMDR therapy and can it help you?25:33 What is the “inner child” and how do you heal childhood wounds?33:29 Should we forgive those who have hurt us?36:15 Why being told you are a sinner is bad for your mental health37:48 The difference between shame and guilt, and how to overcome them41:55 When is it time to end a friendship?49:00 You have everything you need in you to heal yourself! Read the podcast blog and transcript here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-heal-from-trauma-signs-of-secondary-trauma-and-how-emdr-can-help-with-trauma-recovery-and-ptsd-with-therapist-and-trauma-expert-alyssa-mancao For more info on Alyssa and to contact here visit her website: www.alyssamariewellness.com And follow her on social media: https://www.instagram.com/alyssamariewellness/  https://www.facebook.com/alyssamariewellness   Link to find an EMDR therapist: http://www.emdr.com/SEARCH/index.php    This episode was made possible by the following sponsors:   -Feals CBD (the best CBD out there!): To get 50% off your Feals CBD order and free shipping see https://feals.com/drleaf.

      <itunes:summary>For many of us, trauma is something with a capital “T”, a big event or situation, such as a car accident or pandemic, that impacts us in dramatic and unforeseen ways. Yet, as I discuss in this week’s blog and podcast with licensed clinical social worker and therapist Alyssa Mancao, trauma with a lowercase “t” is something many people have to deal with on a daily basis. This kind of trauma, institutional or otherwise, is often normalised and suppressed, which can have a lasting impact on someone’s mental and physical health, compelling them to fight for survival in the face of persistent stressors in their environment. Thankfully, as Alyssa has seen in her social work and her private practice, many people, given the right help, can and do recover from trauma and learn how to reconnect to themselves and their communities in deep and meaningful ways. How? Alyssa focuses on bringing back the human element in therapy, going beyond evidence-based practices and focusing on the individual’s unique story and experiences. She recognizes that many of the people she works with are dealing with little traumas like bullying and failed relationships on a daily basis, and that their mental and physical symptoms are a function of survival.  Podcast Time Stamps4:15 How Alyssa’s clients gave her hope, and the power of human resilience 5:46 What Alyssa thinks about evidence-based therapy and why she started her own therapy practice9:33 The difference between little traumas and big Trauma14:41 What is EMDR therapy and can it help you?25:33 What is the “inner child” and how do you heal childhood wounds?33:29 Should we forgive those who have hurt us?36:15 Why being told you are a sinner is bad for your mental health37:48 The difference between shame and guilt, and how to overcome them41:55 When is it time to end a friendship?49:00 You have everything you need in you to heal yourself! Read the podcast blog and transcript here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-heal-from-trauma-signs-of-secondary-trauma-and-how-emdr-can-help-with-trauma-recovery-and-ptsd-with-therapist-and-trauma-expert-alyssa-mancao For more info on Alyssa and to contact here visit her website: www.alyssamariewellness.com And follow her on social media: https://www.instagram.com/alyssamariewellness/  https://www.facebook.com/alyssamariewellness   Link to find an EMDR therapist: http://www.emdr.com/SEARCH/index.php    This episode was made possible by the following sponsors:   -Feals CBD (the best CBD out there!): To get 50% off your Feals CBD order and free shipping see https://feals.com/drleaf.

      <description>Yes, we are in the midst of a global crisis. For many people, life is incredibly challenging right now. It is easy to lose hope, and fear what will happen in the future. But did you know that you can also use this time to grow as a person, learn how to make the most of living in the moment and discover the opportunities that present themselves? It is often the case in life that something good is birthed out of something bad. Crises can be watershed moments, compelling us to get out of our comfort zone, teaching us to embrace our fears and helping us make the most of living in the moment, as I discuss in this podcast with leadership expert and best-selling author John Maxwell. Even though events like the current COVID-19 pandemic can disrupt our schedules and plans, we can still find clarity in the present, and make the most of the only time we know we have: right now.  Podcast Time Stamps7:29 Why leaders have to lead differently in times of crisis9:00 The power of living in the moment 14:10 The scientific value of living in the moment16:30 If we prepare today, we don’t have to repair tomorrow21:00 How to use fear to your advantage 29:22 The cycle of success42:29 Uncertainty as an opportunity 46:30 The secret power of creativity Read the podcast blog and transcript here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/interview-with-john-maxwell-on-the-neuroscience-of-leadership-tips-on-how-to-lead-during-a-crisis-and-why-we-need-to-fail-more Fore more info on John and to get his books visit: www.johnmaxwell.comwww.johnmaxwellleadershippodcast.com And follow John on social media:JohnCMaxwell – Twitterjohncmaxwell – InstagramJohnCMaxwell – Facebook  Additional Resources: -Join my text group for more tips, notifications of sales, and more!

      <description>It is widely understood that the mind-body connection is important, but did you know that it has the power to change your life? In this podcast (one of my personal favorites!) I speak to the incredible “Iceman” Wim Hof about the incredible capacity we all have to control our thinking and change our biology, overcome toxic stress and stay strong amidst major crises like the current pandemic.  Wim Hof got his nickname by breaking a number of records related to cold exposure. His feats include climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in shorts, running a half marathon above the Arctic Circle on his bare feet, and standing in a container while covered with ice cubes for more than 112 minutes!  Having embraced the majestic force of nature, Wim became convinced that everyone can tap into this potential without having to invest the same decades worth of study, travel and daring, so he developed the Wim Hof Method: a natural path to an optimal state of body and mind.  Podcast Highlights &amp; Time Stamps6:20 Why we are easily overcome with fear and stress9:10 Why we have got so lazy with our thinking. 10:13 Wim’s incredible story16:00 We can make our brains bodies happier, healthier and stronger through our mind.  20:30 How did Wim Hof develop his method?24:31 Tips to deal with crises like COVID-19 27:45 What is the Wim Hof method?46:34 Finding peace in the eye of the storm50:00 How to heal a broken heart 55:00 The “super brain” study 1:05:00 The power of mind management 1:11:25 Nature or nurture? Read the podcast blog and transcript here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/interview-with-wim-hof-on-how-to-train-your-mind-to-overcome-any-challenge-the-amazing-benefits-of-cold-showers-amp-how-to-use-your-breathe-to-reduce-anxiety-and-stress  Wim's website: www.wimhofmethod.com  Get access to Wim's Fundamental Course at a discount here: https://www.wimhofmethod.com/elearning/fundamentals The Science of Wim Hof method: www.wimhofmethod.com/science   Special offers from this week's sponsor: -Blinkist  (my favorite reading app!): To get your free week on Blinkist AND 25% off your subscription see: https://www.blinkist.com/nc/partners/cleaning-up-the-mental-mess   Additional Resources: -Get my new brain detox app SWITCH on sale now!

      <title>Episode #150: How Perfectionism Can Lead to Depression and Anxiety + Tips on How to Stop the Toxic Perfectionism Cycle (Interview with Psychologist Dr. Margaret Rutherford)</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Episode-150-How-Perfectionism-Can-Lead-to-Depression-and-Anxiety--Tips-on-How-to-Stop-the-Toxic-Perfectionism-Cycle-Interview-with-Psychologist-Dr--Margaret-Rutherford-eejdb4</link>
      <description>We all know we should try our best and strive for excellence in everything we do, but what happens when this desire to do well turns toxic? In this podcast, I speak to clinical psychologist Dr. Margaret Rutherford about how perfectionism can be another manifestation of depression, what to do when our desire to succeed becomes destructive, why we need to learn, rather than fear, our failures and useful techniques to overcome perfectionist tendencies.In her new book, Perfectly-Hidden Depression, Margaret notes how many perfectionists often don’t acknowledge or know that they are depressed, or that their desire to succeed in every area of their lives is a coping strategy to deal with past hurts and trauma. Many do not have what are considered “normal” traits of depression, that is feelings of helplessness and hopelessness. Indeed, in a number of cases they do not know how to express uncomfortable or painful feelings and emotions, and tend to talk about what they have gone through in a very detached way.This type of perfectionism is different from striving for excellence, which is more process-orientated and encourages you to learn from your mistakes. Perfectly-hidden depression, on the other hand, is fueled by fear and shame. Toxic perfectionism tends to be goal-orientated, and sees failure as a sign of worthlessness, which puts intense pressure on someone’s performance, compelling them to constantly do better and hide their mistakes.Read the full episode blog and transcript here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-perfectionism-can-lead-to-depression-and-anxiety-tips-on-how-to-stop-the-toxic-perfectionism-cycle-interview-with-psychologist-dr-margaret-rutherford  Podcast Highlights:1:58 What is perfectly hidden depression?7:25 The role of the therapist is not to fix people10:49 What is perfectionism?17:34, 27:20 Ten main traits of perfectly-hidden depression19:36: How is this different from other forms of depression38:00 The first step to healing is acknowledging that there is a problem 42:01 Tips and techniques to deal with perfectionism40:05 Helping child or teen battling with perfectly-hidden depression  52:10 Social media and perfectionism  For more info on Dr. Margaret and to get her book visit: https://drmargaretrutherford.com Listen to her amazing podcast here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/selfwork-dr-margaret-rutherford-self-help-mental-health/id1166015598  Special offers from this week's sponsors: -NOOM (the best healthy habit company): For your NOOM special offer see: noom.com/DRLEAF -SEED (my favorite probiotic company): Visit https://seed.com and use code MENTALMESS for 15% off your first month of the Daily Synbiotic  Additional Resources: -Get my new brain detox app SWITCH on sale now!

      <itunes:subtitle>We all know we should try our best and strive for excellence in everything we do, but what happens when this desire to do well turns toxic? In this podcast, I speak to clinical psychologist Dr. Margaret Rutherford about how perfectionism can be another manifestation of depression, what to do when our desire to succeed becomes destructive, why we need to learn, rather than fear, our failures and useful techniques to overcome perfectionist tendencies.In her new book, Perfectly-Hidden Depression, Margaret notes how many perfectionists often don’t acknowledge or know that they are depressed, or that their desire to succeed in every area of their lives is a coping strategy to deal with past hurts and trauma. Many do not have what are considered “normal” traits of depression, that is feelings of helplessness and hopelessness. Indeed, in a number of cases they do not know how to express uncomfortable or painful feelings and emotions, and tend to talk about what they have gone through in a very detached way.This type of perfectionism is different from striving for excellence, which is more process-orientated and encourages you to learn from your mistakes. Perfectly-hidden depression, on the other hand, is fueled by fear and shame. Toxic perfectionism tends to be goal-orientated, and sees failure as a sign of worthlessness, which puts intense pressure on someone’s performance, compelling them to constantly do better and hide their mistakes.Read the full episode blog and transcript here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-perfectionism-can-lead-to-depression-and-anxiety-tips-on-how-to-stop-the-toxic-perfectionism-cycle-interview-with-psychologist-dr-margaret-rutherford  Podcast Highlights:1:58 What is perfectly hidden depression?7:25 The role of the therapist is not to fix people10:49 What is perfectionism?17:34, 27:20 Ten main traits of perfectly-hidden depression19:36: How is this different from other forms of depression38:00 The first step to healing is acknowledging that there is a problem 42:01 Tips and techniques to deal with perfectionism40:05 Helping child or teen battling with perfectly-hidden depression  52:10 Social media and perfectionism  For more info on Dr. Margaret and to get her book visit: https://drmargaretrutherford.com Listen to her amazing podcast here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/selfwork-dr-margaret-rutherford-self-help-mental-health/id1166015598  Special offers from this week's sponsors: -NOOM (the best healthy habit company): For your NOOM special offer see: noom.com/DRLEAF -SEED (my favorite probiotic company): Visit https://seed.com and use code MENTALMESS for 15% off your first month of the Daily Synbiotic  Additional Resources: -Get my new brain detox app SWITCH on sale now!

      <description>The world is currently riveted in fear of what is known as COVID-19, a new type of coronavirus that has put a lot of people at risk of getting ill or potentially dying. I understand that this situation can be frightening, and we should take all necessary precautions, following the WHO and CDC guidelines. We need to bring balance to the fear, because the fear can be more dangerous than the virus. In fact, fear-based stress and anxiety can and will weaken your immune system, the very thing that needs to be strong during a health crisis! In this special podcast episode I cover tips, techniques, and simple strategies to help protect and boost your mental and physical health during this pandemic. WHO website: https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/events-as-they-happenCDC website: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prepare/cleaning-disinfection.html?CDC_AA_refVal=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fcoronavirus%2F2019-ncov%2Fcommunity%2Fhome%2Fcleaning-disinfection.html Additional resources:Get my new 21 day brain detox program here: https://theswitch.app  Register now for my 2020 Mental Health Summit Dec 3-5 in Dallas, TX!

        <![CDATA[The world is currently riveted in fear of what is known as COVID-19, a new type of coronavirus that has put a lot of people at risk of getting ill or potentially dying. I understand that this situation can be frightening, and we should take all necessary precautions, following the WHO and CDC guidelines. We need to bring balance to the fear, because the fear can be more dangerous than the virus. In fact, fear-based stress and anxiety can and will weaken your immune system, the very thing that needs to be strong during a health crisis! In this special podcast episode I cover tips, techniques, and simple strategies to help protect and boost your mental and physical health during this pandemic. WHO website: https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/events-as-they-happenCDC website: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prepare/cleaning-disinfection.html?CDC_AA_refVal=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fcoronavirus%2F2019-ncov%2Fcommunity%2Fhome%2Fcleaning-disinfection.html Additional resources:Get my new 21 day brain detox program here: https://theswitch.app  Register now for my 2020 Mental Health Summit Dec 3-5 in Dallas, TX!

      <title>Episode #136: Interview with Melissa Urban (Whole30 Co-Founder) on Addiction Recovery, Healing from Sexual Abuse, Dealing with Divorce, and Why She Started Whole30</title>

      <description>In this podcast I interview the incredible creator and founder of Whole30 and bestselling author, Melissa Urban, on her health journey, dealing with trauma, how to recover from addiction, how to help someone who is battling with depression and much more! Melissa didn’t just wake up on day and decide to found the Whole30 movement. Her journey to health was a long one: even though she grew up in a good home, she was sexually abused by a family member as a teenager. To suppress the trauma, she turned to drugs, and what started off as a distraction soon became an addiction. She tried to hold in her pain, and started self-destructing internally—trauma and pain cannot be suppressed, and will manifest in other areas of our lives if we do not embrace, acknowledge and deal with the hard stuff in life.  Podcast Time Highlights: 2:34 What inspired the Whole30 movement? 4:08, 43:00 How community lays the foundation for true success 6:00, 8:08 How Melissa overcame her drug addiction 19:08 How we are not defined by any one part of our story 20:42 How to heal from divorce 27:11 Why is mental health so important?  31:06 How to help someone who is depressed and suicidal 39:40 Is there such a thing as work-life balance? 41:31 Melissa’s spiritual journey 43:00 What is it like to run Whole30? 47:55 Melissa’s favorite foods and recipes 50:21 How to deal with negative criticism and feedback  53:42 Are there any wellness trends we should avoid? Whole30 program: whole30.com instagram, twitter, and facebook: @whole30 Whole30 books: whole30.com/books Melissa's personal instagram: @melissau   Melissa's AMAZING podcast: whole30.com/podcast  For additional resources to help you on your mental health healing journey: Get my new 21 day brain detox program here: https://theswitch.app  Register now for my 2020 Mental Health Summit Dec 3-5 in Dallas, TX!

      <title>Episode #132: How to recover from disordered eating + tips on overcoming guilt, shame, and perfectionism with therapist Megan Bruneau</title>

      <description>We have all experienced shame before: the feeling that we are not enough, or that we do not live up to certain standards or ideals. But what happens when this shame spirals out of control? What happens when it overtakes our life, and affects the way we think and behave?In this week’s podcast I speak with Megan Bruneau, a psychologist and registered counselor who specializes in crisis support, compassion-based therapy and executive coaching, about the problem of shame, learning how to love yourself despite your imperfections, how to help someone with an eating disorder, the danger of medicalizing normal human emotions and why positive affirmations often fail. Megan has been featured on national television programs like Good Morning America and The T.D. Jakes Show) and is a regular contributor to Huffington Post, MindBodyGreen and Forbes. Using both her personal and professional experience, her goal is to teach people to face and learn to live with their imperfections and be kinder to themselves. As Megan says, we are all a journey, and we are all worthy of being loved, and there is room for both joy and sorrow in life. You don’t have to wait till you feel happy or look a certain way or have a particular life or succeed at something to feel like you belong and that you matter, because you are worthy, right here, right now. Megan’s website: https://meganbruneau.comFollow Megan on social media: https://www.instagram.com/meganjbruneau/https://www.facebook.com/meganbruneaumahttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5EC_tOiVRKk3ftpqTdviuw Podcast Time Highlights:3:00 Megan’s background and her personal battle with perfectionism and shame5:30 Why positive affirmations don’t work10:18 Why the happiness industry is dangerous12:43 Why we need to deal with difficult emotions20:00 What are some of the major issues we face today?25:00 How to heal eating disorders54:45 The importance of self-compassion and purpose  For additional resources to help you on your mental health healing journey:Get my new 21 day brain detox program here: https://theswitch.app Register now for my 2020 Mental Health Summit Dec 3-5 in Dallas, TX!

      <description>In this podcast I talk to Harvard-trained nutritional psychiatrist Dr. Georgia Ede about how certain diets can affect our mental wellbeing, what foods help the brain function best, and what foods to avoid if we want to heal and improve our mental and physical health. Dr. Ede, in both her personal life and practice, has found that making certain lifestyle modifications can help treat major mental health issues such as ADHD, depression, anxiety and panic attacks. Through her research, she has found that nutrition can help heal and restore brain function, empowering people to take back control over their mental state and their lives, without the stigma and negative side-effects so common to pharmacological treatments for mental distress.For more on Dr. Ede visit: https://www.diagnosisdiet.com Highlights from this episode:4:13-How Dr. Ede changed the way she treated mental health5:53-How nutrition affects mental health8:16-What is mental ill-health, and how can food help?9:00-Food myths, and the best way to eat for a healthy body and mind18:35-Is there one diet that works for everyone?24:00-How nutrition has changed her patients’ lives31:32-The biggest obstacles to nutrition and mental health43:00-Health and wellness trends to be careful of44:00-What we need to know about going plant-based49:40-How to do keto correctly For additional resources to help you on your mental health healing journey:Get my new 21 day brain detox program here: https://theswitch.app Register now for my 2020 Mental Health Summit Dec 3-5 in Dallas, TX!

      <description>From the moment we are born, our cells begin to age. But aging does not have to mean decline. World-renowned surgeon Dr. Steven Gundry has been treating mature patients for most of his career. He knows that everyone thinks they want to live forever, until they hit middle age and witness the suffering of their parents and even their peers. So how do we solve the paradox of wanting to live to a ripe old age—but enjoy the benefits of youth?In this episode I interview renown cardiologist and New York Times bestselling author Dr. Steven Gundry to discuss how we may be living longer but not better, how to reverse the disease of aging and prevent Alzheimers, how some vegetables may actually be harming our health, how lectins could be related to the rise of autoimmune diseases, how to help children develop healthy habits, and so much more! For more info on Dr. Gundry visit: https://drgundry.comI also highly recommend his books:The Plant Paradox: https://drgundry.com/books/The Plant Paradox Family Cookbook: https://drgundry.com/books/The Longevity Paradox: http://www.harperwave.com/book/9780062843395/The-Longevity-Paradox-Steven-R.-Gundry-MD/And follow him on social media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drstevengundry/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrStevenGundry/Twitter: https://www.facebook.com/DrStevenGundry/ Additional resources:Get my new 21 day brain detox program here: https://theswitch.appRegister now for my 2020 Mental Health Summit Dec 3-5 in Dallas, TX!

      <title>Episode #125: An unconventional but highly effective method to overcoming addiction + tips on how to help someone else struggling with an addiction, why abstinence is ineffective with Dr. Adi Jaffe</title>

      <description>Addiction is something many of us have experienced, whether we ourselves have battled with addiction, guilt and shame, or we know a loved one, friend or family member who is dealing with addiction. According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), 19.7 million American adults (aged 12 and older) battled a substance use disorder in 2017 alone! When it comes to addiction, whether we are talking about addiction to drugs, alcohol, food, sex and so on, people are often faced with conflicting messages: they are damaged goods with little or no hope of overcoming their addiction, or it is all their fault and they are just “bad apples”.Yet reality is far more complicated, and, thankfully, far more hopeful: it is possible to take responsibility for our lives while recognizing and dealing with the negative consequences addiction. In this week’s podcast I speak about addiction and how it is possible to overcome it with Adi Jaffe, Ph.D. who is a nationally recognized expert on mental health, addiction, relationships and shame. We discuss his unconventional but effective method, how he struggled with addiction (which ended up with him in prison!), how to help someone who is struggling with addiction, and why abstinence is ineffective in addiction recovery.For more information on Dr. Adi and his courses, book, and podcast visit: https://www.adijaffe.com/bio Find him on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter: @dradijaffeIGNTD Hero Program: https://www.igntdrecovery.com/transforming-addiction-full Get his book The Abstinence Myth for free here: https://www.theabstinencemyth.com/ Additional reading: https://www.cnn.com/2012/09/13/health/jaffe-addiction-myths/index.html Additional resources:Get my new 21 day brain detox program here: https://theswitch.app Visit my website at www.drleaf.com for more resources, tips, and tools to help you improve and heal your mental health!

In this week’s podcast I speak about addiction and how it is possible to overcome it with Adi Jaffe, Ph.D. who is a nationally recognized expert on mental health, addiction, relationships and shame. We discuss his unconventional but effective method, how he struggled with addiction (which ended up with him in prison!), how to help someone who is struggling with addiction, and why abstinence is ineffective in addiction recovery.For more information on Dr. Adi and his courses, book, and podcast visit: https://www.adijaffe.com/bio Find him on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter: @dradijaffeIGNTD Hero Program: https://www.igntdrecovery.com/transforming-addiction-full Get his book The Abstinence Myth for free here: https://www.theabstinencemyth.com/ Additional reading: https://www.cnn.com/2012/09/13/health/jaffe-addiction-myths/index.html Additional resources:Get my new 21 day brain detox program here: https://theswitch.app Visit my website at www.drleaf.com for more resources, tips, and tools to help you improve and heal your mental health!

      <description>Boundaries are vital to protecting your mental and physical health. But when do we need to set certain boundaries? How do we set them? And how do we best enforce boundaries? In this episode I interview leading boundaries expert Dr. Henry Cloud on all things related to boundaries and mental health. We also discuss how to deal with a narcissist, how to deal with gaslighting, and so much more! Dr. Cloud is a New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author, and his books have sold nearly 20 million copies. Dr. Cloud's work has been featured and reviewed by the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Boston Globe, Publisher's Weekly, Los Angeles Times, and many other publications. Success Magazine named Dr. Cloud in the top 25 most influential leaders in personal growth and development, alongside Oprah, Brene Brown, Seth Godin and others. He is a frequent contributor to CNN, Fox News Channel, and other national media outlets. In his leadership consulting practice, Dr. Cloud works with CEO's, Fortune 500 companies and smaller private businesses alike. He has an extensive executive coaching background, and experience as a leadership consultant, devoting the majority of his time working with CEO's, leadership teams and executives to improving performance, leadership skills, and culture. He also has a specialty in high net worth family offices. As a speaker, Dr. Cloud has shared the stage with many business and global leaders and experts, such as Tony Blair, Jack Welch, Condoleezza Rice, Desmond Tutu, President George Bush, Marcus Buckingham, Magic Johnson, Peyton Manning and many others.Dr. Cloud is a graduate of Southern Methodist University, with a B.S. in psychology.

Dr. Mayfield's doctoral research focused the effects of equine facilitated psychotherapy on veteran survivors with partial or full PTSD.   www.drmayfield.comwww.mayfieldcounseling.comwww.facebook.com/TheDrMayfield/Instagram: drmark24Twitter: @drmarkmayfield  Special offers from our sponsors:Joovv: For more info on Joovv and to get your special offer go to: www.joovv.com/drleafBiOptimizer's Brain Boost Stack Special (Includes the Primergen-M and Primergen-V): Get an additional 20% off from the normal package price with coupon code DRLEAF20: www.bioptimizers.com/leafbrainVeestro: Get free shipping + try the 6 most popular Veestro meals for $49 at: tryveestro.com/drleafComrad Socks:Get 20% off your order at www.comradsocks.com/drleaf with code DRLEAFFour Sigmatic: Get 15% off at foursigmatic.com/DRLEAF or use coupon code DRLEAF at checkout Instagram: @drcarolineleafFacebook: Dr. Caroline LeafTwitter: @drcarolineleaf Visit my website at drleaf.com for more resources, tips, and tools to help you improve and heal your mental health!

      <description>Everyday I receive questions on how to deal with burnout and it seems like more and more people are struggling with major mental health issues that are a direct result of burnout.

      <title>Episode #68: Why mindfulness is not enough + 5 steps to overcoming a mental health crisis</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cleaningupthementalmess/episodes/Episode-68-Why-mindfulness-is-not-enough--5-steps-to-overcoming-a-mental-health-crisis-eejd9m</link>
      <description>Mindfulness is a very hot topic now. And there are many benefits to being mindful through prayer or meditation.

Over the next eight weeks we will be going through my latest book, Think Learn Succeed!I decided to spread the book over two months because there is just so much to unpack and discuss. Like the January Perfect You book club, there will be weekly YouTube Live sessions that go over the assigned chapters as well as blogs and podcasts related to topics and concepts in Think Learn Succeed.How you understand and use your mind is predictive of how successful you will be. Nothing will work unless you get your mind right first. Think Learn Succeed is all about helping you make that switch to a life well-lived, filled with meaningful success.So how do you join the book club?1. Get the book! You can order it online from my website and get 20% off with coupon code TLS20: https://store.drleaf.com/collections/frontpage/products/think-learn-succeed-book2. You can also order the book on Amazon or pick it up wherever books are sold: https://www.amazon.com/Think-Learn-Succeed-Understanding-Workplace-ebook/dp/B07933HG86/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1548440607&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=think+learn+succeed+by+dr+caroline+leaf3. I highly encourage getting the DVD and workbook as this will really help you understand this book so much more, and it makes a great companion to the weekly YouTube sessions! The DVD and workbook are designed for groups or individuals, and are like bible study guides. You can purchase the Think Learn Succeed Study Pack here: https://store.drleaf.com/collections/group-studies/products/think-learn-succeed-curriculum-kit4. You can also get the book on Kindle, and get the audiobook on Amazon's Audible.5. The YouTube Live Schedule (copy this and keep it somewhere you can see each week!):February 8th 5pm CT: Introduction and Chapters 1 &amp; 2February 13th 5pm CT: Chapters 3 &amp; 4February 22nd 5pm CT: Chapters 5-7February 28th 5pm CT: Chapters 8-10March 8th 5pm CT: Chapters 11-13March 15th 5pm CT: Chapters 14-16March 21st 5pm CT: Chapters 17-18March 29th 5pm CT: Chapters 19-20*Chapters 21 &amp; 22 are more on the science of my research and work and are optional readings.**Be sure to read the assigned chapters BEFORE the Youtube Live as this will really help you understand the book better. In the YouTube live sessions I give a recap of the assigned chapters for that week, and go into some explanations of the concepts. I also give practical application tips.This is also a great book for students, teachers, and parents of students as it deals a lot with learning, memory, and learning difficulties!For book orders outside the USIn Australia you can order from KOORONG: https://www.koorong.com/search/product/think-learn-succeed-the-art-of-using-your/9780801093272.jhtmlIn South Africa you can order from CUM Books: https://www.cumbooks.co.za/think-learn-succeed-paperbackIn Canada you can order from INDIGO: https://www.chapters.indigo.ca/en-ca/home/search/?keywords=think%20learn%20Succeed#internal=1In the UK you can order from AMAZON UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Think-Learn-Succeed-Understanding-Workplace/dp/0801093619/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1531309996&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=think+learn+succeedYou can also order in the USA from:BARNES AND NOBLE: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/think-learn-succeed-dr-caroline<p> Hosted on Acast.

      <description>Mental Health issues are not on the rise- rather it is the mismanagement of mental health that is increasing. In this episode I discuss why the current mental health system is failing to help people, and what we can do about this. I also discuss psychotropic medication, and how fo find healing if you struggle with mental ill-health. This is the second podcast in my Perfect You series. **This is informative and NOT individual medical advice.**DRUG WITHDRAWAL should ALWAYS be done under the supervision of a qualified professional. These drugs alter your brain chemistry, and withdrawal can be a difficult process. There are thousands of patient-run sites on withdrawal from psychoactive substances on the Internet, and many books available in stores and online. We suggest you begin looking at the resources page on Mad in America. Dr. Peter Breggin also has a brilliant book on withdrawal: https://breggin.com/a-guide-for-prescribers-therapists-patients-and-their-families/**For general information on the current state of psychiatry please visit http://www.madinamerica.com. **To report any adverse psychotropic drug effects you have experienced, and for more detailed individual drug information, please visit https://rxisk.org/Additional Resources:https://drleaf.com/blog/http://podcast.drleaf.com/e/episode-37-the-dangers-of-psychotropic-medications-with-dr-peter-breggin/  https://breggin.comThe SWITCH app is coming to iTunes and Google Play early 2019!!For more info on my new app SWITCH go to: https://theswitch.app. get 30% off a year subscription when you pre-order today: http://theswitch.app/promo/**Sign up for my weekly newsletter to get even more tips, updates, specials, and more: https://drleaf.com  About the Mental Health Initiative and January Perfect You Book Club:I am making 2019 the year of mental health!
