    Getting Out of the Carnival Fun House Using (I∞T)® Advanced Level: Story Form

    Today, I share another interesting Story Form, using the metaphor of a carnival fun house, to help people heal from difficult, disorienting, and destabilizing experiences.  Many of us have suffered in the past from experiences that made us question our reality and lose our sense of direction or orientation in life. We can become ungrounded, imbalanced, and anxious. We may lose self-awareness and forget self-care. Before you try this podcast, think of a situation where this Story Form might help you to heal from a chaotic and disorienting experience in your life. Then, apply this technique and see if you find it helpful. After this Story Form, the patient who experienced the energy healing session said that she was able to go so deeply into the experience that she was not able to remember the latter parts of the story, although she came back to a fully alert and conscious state when the session ended. She felt that it was powerfully helpful and allowed her to feel grounded and peaceful. Story Form integrates the use of visualization, symbolism, and metaphor to craft a story where the listener is the living protagonist in the unfolding plot. It starts with the metaphorical state of being that captures the essence of a traumatic experience or problem and transforms it through Life Energy to an alternative, healed, and positive outcome. This technique takes us into a deep, relaxed, trance-like state where we are able to communicate at all levels of being to transform and heal from energies and subconscious patterns, which keep us stuck in fear and uncertainty.

    Gaining Confidence in Self-Sufficiency: Using (I∞T)® Advanced Level: Story Form

    One of my patients’ favorite Infinite Intention Techniques is an advanced approach called “Story Form.” It is even more powerful than EET! However, for a clinician, it takes a lot of skill, creativity, intuition, and insight to use this technique to help a patient. Today’s podcast uses Story Form to support and heal those who have experienced chronic and repetitive traumas, health problems, or challenges that have undermined their self-confidence in being self-sufficient. This podcast records a spontaneously created Story Form session, a meditative technique that uses imagery and story, for a patient, Emily, who had experienced chronic health problems that caused her to be dependent on her family despite her deep desire to be self-sufficient. Story Form brings the use of visualization, symbolism, and metaphor to craft a story where the listener is the living protagonist in the unfolding plot. It starts with the metaphorical state of being resulting from chronic challenges in life. As the story evolves, Life Energy is integrated to transform the imagery, symbolism, metaphors, and plot of the story to create an alternative, healed, and positive outcome. This technique takes us into a deep, relaxed, trance-like state where we are able to communicate at all levels of being to transform and heal from energies and subconscious patterns, which keep us stuck in fear and uncertainty. Today's story takes us to a new place where we can live a self-sufficient and independent life as we create what we deeply desire to accomplish and experience. After this session, Emily felt more comfortable with being self-sufficient and empowered to reduce the frequency of her sessions. That's the appropriate outcome from a powerful intervention!

    How Spirituality and Religiosity Affect Mental Health

    Holistic practitioners believe in healing the mind, body, and soul. However, it's rare to find clear examples of an association between spirituality, religiosity, and physical well-being. Tina's (pseudonym) healing journey clearly illustrates these relationships. Despite decades of disappointment in her struggle to find the "right" medications, Tina, who had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, didn't need a long list of supplements to restore her health quickly and effectively. What helped her instead? Her powerful transformative process largely depended on a safer and more compassionate relationship with God and her religious community. Come and learn more about the mysterious, invisible forces within us that often get ignored and dismissed as we rush to heal the physical body. This podcast will turn our assumptions and approaches to healing upside down and inside out! Enjoy! Have a joyful week!

    Breaking Stereotypes and Embracing Vulnerability

    What is mindful masculinity? Scott Grace's new book, Mindful Masculinity, made me wonder. Does masculinity or femininity exist, or are they artificial social constructs? Through songs, Dr. Seuss-like poetry, and profound and practical insights, Scott explores typical stereotypes of masculinity, often embraced by men to their detriment, and how to shift false bravado to new ways of living authentic lives filled with healthy emotional connections and relationships. We discuss the nature of masculinity and his insightful chapters on ego, emotional repression, and feelings of inadequacy that fuel the need for a false masculine façade. Enjoy! Want a quick preview? Check out highlights from the first six chapters here on Scott’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf6GohgVoX1isfti72X6bsGXgOzklc9Yd Mindful Masculinity is available on Support the show To sustain my work as a holistic psychiatrist and support my efforts to improve psychiatric treatment for all through my podcasts, articles, website, and YouTube channel, please show your appreciation and help champion holistic psychiatry by clicking HERE to contribute!

    How to Beat Physician and Professional Burnout with Tomi Mitchell, MD

    Dr. Tomi Mitchell's new book: The Soul-Sucking, Energy-Draining Life of a Physician: How to Live a Life of Service Without Losing Yourself, discusses the soul-sucking side of medicine—aspects of work that cause burn-out among so many physicians and other professionals in stressful careers. Over the years, she has learned how to identify and address these work-related hazards to shield people and help people create a thriving life. Listen to this amazing podcast, which uses common sense, wisdom, and humor to help you avoid the emotional and psychological pitfalls found at work. This book isn’t just for physicians, it’s for all individuals struggling to overcome burnout and wanting to thrive. During the podcast, we cover important questions such as: 1. Why is the relationship with the self the most crucial part of the Burnout Triad and how does it influence our worldview? 2. How does Dr. Mitchell’s book address the issue of physician burnout differently from other resources on this topic? What unique perspective or approach does she offer? 3. How does the book address the concept of work-life balance for physicians? 4. What are the three E’s and why are they important? 5. What’s one lesson or piece of advice from Dr. Mitchell’s book that she wished she had known earlier in her career?
