Linda’s Corner: Inspiration for a Better Life
Education:Self-Improvement
Our culture is based in fear and shame, but in this episode of Linda's Corner, Don Goewey explains how we can break free from these societal programs and experience child-like joy, peace, and freedom. Don managed the department of psychiatry at Stanford University Medical School, was awarded an excellence in medicine citation from the American Medical Association, pioneered an approach for overcoming catastrophic life events, and is the author of the best seller “The End of Stress/Four Steps to Rewire Your Brain.” Don and his work have been featured on the Today Show, CNN and NPR. You can reach Don at his website https://theendofstressbook.com.
Some of the highlights Don shares:
FMRI scans of Tibetan monks show how to shift the brain to experience more peace
Meditation for just 5 minutes a day is enough to alter brain function
Success doesn't equate to happiness (but happiness can lead to success)
We live in a fear based society - how does that affect our beliefs and actions?
Where do feelings of "not good enough" come from?
What is stress?
What resource do we overlook when we're dealing with stress?
The role of the amygdala in our fear response
Our amygdala can't tell the difference between real or imagined danger
How do ads affect us? (research shows they make us feel bad about ourselves)
How acceptance neutralizes stress
How neuroplasticity reverses the stress response and prunes the "fear center"
Research shows that only 4% of people feel happy and free
How awareness brings peace and freedom
Are you actively making yourself miserable?
Success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure
Focusing on what you don't have brings misery
Focusing on what you have to be grateful for brings joy
Happiness doesn't come from the world (it comes from within)
We're not broken. We're not a problem that needs to be fixed
Everything you need is already inside of you
Get in touch with your emotions, but don't "identify" with them
