He literally described childhood - not focusing on your body, time, your possessions etc. This is why I crave my childhood. I want to feel whole and at peace again.
@@MrSidReal that's always an idea! Although I've heard some not so great experiences others have had some now I am too scared lol Edit: also, drugs/mushrooms aren't really my thing.
Jesus said to inherit the kingdom of God we must become like children... also he says "God has not given us a spirit of fear but of love peace and a sound mind" he also says "do not worry about anything, instead pray about everything, thank God for all he has done, and then you will experience his peace" God bless all. I really like this video, definitely sharing this video.
I cured my stress by going to art exhibitions, painting beautiful tropical flowers and walking on the damp green grass. I feel so much more myself and not so alone …..I loved it.
I think this is an example of how you can get out of the stressful state by simply doing things you love, for me it was programming. Suddenly I wasn’t feeling as depressed anymore and started caring for myself once i did something on my own daily that I liked.
It took me 11 years to learn all of this collectively and heal from immense trauma, disease, and a stroke, and I'm only 28, yet I just learned this all in 27 minutes on RUclips. Bless the internet.
Don't bless the internet, please. There's far more negative and hell repercussions that you and your brain pays for the internet than the very few positives.
Personally, I'm thankful for the positives of it and how it's changed my life. I can acknowledge those without having to bring up the negativites in the same breath.
Dr Joe Dispenza's book Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself changed my life. I learned to do the meditation he's talking about here and after 6 months I cured my chronic depression and panic attacks.
@@staceynoel1620 I used to have to take high dosages of Prazosin to be able to sleep, and used to rely on Latuda to curb suicidal ideations. I've been medication free for 3 years now.
@@azeminaay4971 Yaaaay do it! Curing my depression was just the beginning. I still do the meditation from that book on other low frequency emotions and everything about my decision making is different. My internal dialogue is unrecognizable from what it used to be--in the best way!
@@FaithY3n Hi there happy to hear that you are in a better place, bless 🙏. I want to ask about the meditation....is it only in the book or something I can find on RUclips?
I have a terminal autoimmune disease and its from being so stressed my whole life, I literally fried my immune system from the stress and working 100+ hours a week at a super high stakes job. And financially taking care of my mom, and others. Too much. It wasn't worth it. Now, I stay to myself and ENJOY my days. Doing what I WANT TO. and it has healed me so much.
love and light on your journey - our cultures teach too much self denial so we have to get to a state of brokenness to realise we have been doing it wrong.
That's awesome penelope.. Best continued wishes to you. I have an autoimmune disease, as well, though it's not terminal. I've offset a high percentage of the effects stress has had on me. I've leverage the potential of the brain, like you lessened exposure to energy vampires and changed my food habits. Feel free to contact me through EnergizeYourBrain.org Love chatting with like minded thrivers
Having our phones connected to social media, plus watching the news (which is designed to rile you up) makes it so hard to escape these thoughts. I deleted Facebook, I turned off all notifications for my apps, and I basically did my best to turn turned my life into 1993 again. It's helped immeasurably. Every once in a while something happens and I'll convince myself I have a need to get back online more consistently, and within a day I'm back to being a stressed out mess who can't sleep. And for what?
Having OCD, my stress response never turns off. I’m so chronically stressed and this is helping me put things in perspective. I’ve done so much meditation but mental illness is real- also leading to more debt and job impairment. Sending love to all of those suffering.
You should listen to abraham hicks. She teaches us how to re-wire our brain into having new thought patterns ultimately changing our reality over time thriugh daily practice. It took me years but I can look back now and see how dramatically my life has changed. And even thiugh it took hears, at least Im not still in the cycle.
Look into L-theanine! It’s life-changing for OCD & anxiety, and it puts the brain into calm focused alpha brainwaves while boosting neuroplasticity to help rewire our brains.
@@NewEarthAwakening I actually just started taking it! Weirdly enough, ADHD medication helps so much with my symptoms/executive dysfunction. It can be so bad for Simon people with anxiety though. Also taking L-theanine, NAC and inositol. And trying to reduce stressors. Thanks for the recommendation
Take high quality ashwagandha daily, it may help you relax natural but it will lower your cortisol levels being produced by stress and protect your health. Kava is also good for anxiety suffers, but make sure you try it safely at home to understand your tolerance and dosings with kava small amounts go a long way. Changing our perspectives also helps, do not allow yourself to believe you can't be healed completely or at least be in a place better than you ever expected, you can. Fear alot of times is a product of feeling unsafe when we were younger, so we try insulate ourselves when we're older with having other manifested issues to create a false structure of 'safety'. Best therapy: destroy fear by doing the things you do fear most, realign your mind that you are safe by proving to your mind and body you are safe by doing those things you fear and proving to yourself you can over come all self-imposed limitations both conscious and subconscious. Hope this helps the person it was meant to find
God bless. I had OCD. It doesn’t mean it was easy to leave it (and their will always be some struggle), but I want to share something. A psychology background didn’t help. Jesus did.
A mind-blowing video. I used to be that type of student who always rushed in the last hour to study. Last semester, I studied for my final exam a night before the exam date. It was stressful, and I could even hear my body calling for help. Now that I have adapted a new study schedule and actually used it, I'm always a week ahead of the following lecture, and I feel good. Thanks to this video, I understand I used to be addicted to stress. It was scary; you can get out of it as I did. Trust yourself, and pull yourself together. You can do this!
@@renee8906 it takes place before the semester begins, and can be hectic while preparing, but it’s all worth it. Please give me your email so that I can tell you more about it, if you don’t mind ^^
@@thanhvanle3024 I really want to know your schedule too! I am exactly like you as I am studying for my final exam now, and I am so stressed but weirdly “enjoying” the productive feeling 😢
Depression has been described as a refusal of what it is, a refusal of your situation, a refusal to accept the reality . A part of yourself aka your Ego (who’s not yourself) refuses to accept.
This channel is pure water in the desert. I’m so grateful for it because sometimes, even if I know what is right, I forget about it. I get lost in this life full of alienation. Then I come back here to this channel, and I remember again what it feels to be aware. Thank you

@Ian Corral damn, haters gonna hate. I guess you hate science, meditation, George Carlin, Egypt, Graham Hancock literally changing archaeology views in the archaeology world, you're probably a fascist/statist, etc. Haha.
I find that excitement and anxiety evoke the same response. One way I’ve reduced my anxiety over the year was to train my brain into being addicted to optimism and happiness. I let my self feel more excited about things, the small things as well. Like coffee or rain…small inconveniences add excitement to the day. Something embarrassing? It’s not anxiety evoking but something funny to laugh back at
In my 40 years i cannot remember a single day without stress, fear, anxiety and an all consuming anger. I cannot even imagine life without it. I am also constantly sick. Got diabetes, cancer, my lung keeps collapsing, inflammation all the time, bones keep breaking, nerves in my eye are paralyzed and the list goes on. Lost about 45 kilo and i look like a zombie. I wish someone would have taught me these things when i was young. Thanks for this video.
Brother like those before me stated, it's never too late. Grab Dr. Joe's books Breaking the habit if being your and You are the Placebo. If you follow the practices, your life WILL change. Much love to you my friend 👊🏽 🧡
Wow I'm in tears as I'm writing this after watching the whole video. I've been way extremely hard on myself. Time to let things go, let things be, and no more living in survival more. And forgiving myself for being so hard on myself for almost 2 years straight. For all the extreme stress I put on my mind and body. I even feel like I can breathe better. Tysm for this video. Eternally grateful, you explained it so well.
I've been living in constant fear and anxiety for two years too! had panic attack for a couple of times. so yes, I understand how you feel. Hope you are fully recovered and find the inner balance.
NEVER EVER allow anyone or even self trick you into believing that you aren't enough. And end up fighting a life long disease while they party their lives away. Really, never put anyone before YOU. Self Love is the only way you can truly love anyone else unconditionally.
I'm disabled and living in my car. Been slowly teaching myself how to do this, and if I can do it while I'm homeless I can definitely do it while I'm back on my feet
I'm disabled to and found myself living in my truck...i had to work so hard because I never fit in at work being not white and not brown. I've lost everything . But because I worked 40 years. Plus. I finally can survive.
this is the message I tried to get my ex boyfriend to understand, he was so miserable and depressed - you gotta change the way you perceive the world. I tried but in the end, I had to leave. His negativity was starting to take a toll on my mental health. I am an artist normally, my life is painting and drawing. During our relationship, I completely stopped creating. I think this says it all, I was in complete survival mode, giving all of my self to the other person.
Too bad you could not understand depression is not always about changing perceptions. I suffered from sever depression since I was a kid and worked my ass off to rewire my brain. I have been depression free for 12 years now, however, you sound either very ignorant about depression or very selfish.
I feel you, my gf/Covid hook up has so much trauma so she is always wielding pain in all aspects of her life. Before we started being a thing, I was running everyday, I was extremely fit, studying/schoolwork 8-10 hours a day and was gardening since those are my studies. I’m now mostly caught up in reminding her to get a doctors help, go find new friend circles/outlets, and stop looking to festivals/drugs as the only release because it is too extreme of an outlet. It’s taking a toll on my sleep cycle with her always watching nostalgia/comfort shows all night. Finding a way to get out of where I am with her, live in a trailer on a piece of land and farm and flow with the long term neurological returns instead of always being in front of a screen.
I had very much the same experience. I'm also an artist. I also had to leave him. It was starting to become exhausting watching him fight imaginary demons. I would go down and try to 'fight' with him, but towards the end it just started to look...silly and unnecessary. I ended up leaving.
Bruh I had to screenshot this cuz it reminds me of those people who are fearless and mark off shii of their bucket list because they love facing their fears and it’s EMPOWERING 😩
Min 16:50: “If you keep the same reaction lingering for hours or days, thats called the Mood. If you keep that same refractory period going for weeks to months, thats called the Temperament. If you keep that same emotional reaction going for years on end, thats called the Personality...”
The weirdest thing happened. I listened to this in tje morning and then i moved on with my daily meditation. As i was meditating i felt uncomfortable, my back hurt and it was just not a pleasant feeling. I sat there trying to embrace it. And then i just heard this question ..are you in survival or creation? And as soon as i answered this my body stopped aching, i got relaxed, my breathing got deeper and easier. I am completely in awe of this
Man, I’m 37, only been learning and living the lifestyle of all of this for the last 2 and a half years, but its insane how shit like that just happens every now and then, isn’t it? I had never experienced shit like that in all my life beforehand, it’s like something connected somewhere at some point and now I am gently being lead to where I need to go, just really subtle hints in unexpected moments… haha And about the baptised thing, I know what you’re thinking, and no, it’s nothing like that, hahahaa! I am baptised..

I lost my dad and my mum and my house before the age of 24 which I just didn’t expect to happen. So because of that I feel like my brain believes any bad can happen. So I’m just living in survival mode preparing for the worst and I’m really trying to get out of it but it’s hard, I’m struggling. But this video definitely makes perfect sense.
I got thread since I was 4 years old from my mentally ill adopted mother that she will die soon and I have to take care of her 2 sons alone and many more abusive growing up! So I carry on the traumatize and stress my whole life! I live in flight and fight mode till these days! Already got physical ill from autoimmune disease.
I've have extreme anxiety my whole life. I grew up in placements, after leaving an abusive adopted home. I over came addiction and I really just want to learn to be happy, I'm almost obsessed with self improvement. This is everything, so much help and healing that isn't an unhealthy bs take on what life is supposed to be! Thank you so much! I will be watching this over and over
I'm so happy for you! I worked in foster care and it was so difficult to see bad situations unfold in real-time and not be able to really help the kids, knowing if something doesn't change their future kids are basically doomed to repeat the cycle. I wish this self-analyzation and stress reduction was a part of fostering, but I get there are bigger fish to fry in most cases. Perhaps this could be useful in the independent living programs for those who never found permanency and are older.
My wife and I have 3 foster girls living with us currently. Im glad I ran across this video, and your comment. Im sad to hear you had an abusive foster home. Take peace knowing there are good homes out there. May you have peace, be healed from your experience, and create positivity wherever you go.
fr. this country was literally formed out of greed. (from how the colonists forced the native americans out of THEIR OWN land...its lowkey sad when u dive deep into it)

I am on the path to heal myself from this illness and get my happiness back and start living in creation. Thank you so much for this video.
Thank you for this. I’m a nurse suffering from extreme burnout. Last week I cried going to work..... and cried when I got home. There’s also stress at home, so no relief. It’s been like this for years, and it’s taken a big toll on my health and happiness. I have a lot of work to do in order to change my thoughts. At least now I see the connection.
You need to take car of yourself. It is not egoistic. You need it to survive. Never feel guilty to take your time. Otherwise you will destroy yourself. Sports. Cook. Take a walk. Spend time with your people.
Please be nice to yourself. Consider taking baths. Using different types of scented soaps. I created a small altar by my door and it brings me lots of peace to light a candle and to light incense. Sometimes I cry it out. Sometimes I just breathe quietly by myself. You are not going crazy. You are human. Sending you so many blessings and prayers for support. And thank you for all of the work you do. I’m rooting for you.

This is absolutely profound. I am living in a heightened fear state all the time (anyone who works in IT will know what I am talking about). What I found so amazing is this explains why I am always in such an analytical state. I over analyze everything, right down to the way that people breathe and I "predict" their emotions or intentions in my mind. I desperately need to find the remedy to change my mindset. I lived like this for 42 years of my life and I want the change so badly. Thank you so much for this information, this is helping me to find the right path.
The tech advancements have come rapidly in less than a couple centuries compared to hundreds of thousands of years of adaptation to hunting gathering, then perhaps several thousand years of rapid adaptation to agricultural/pastoral settlements, to now a break neck tech advancements from the enclosure movements to the industrial ages. Since you work IT, that is a profession where the tech exposure is ten fold.
I have MS, and I had a horrible abusive childhood from a very young age. Information about these subjects has been helpful in my journey to emotional health and spiritual recovery, and whatever comes after that i can handle
@Chi Did you even watch the video? The things you choose to think about put your body in different states. Stress is addictive so you may find yourself thinking over and over about material problems, keeping your body in a state of survival, expecting danger and bad outcomes. That state of mind consumes tons of energy, it's how your body reacts when it's being chased by a predator and other dangers, taking away your body resources to focus on these problems, that often may not even have a short term solution. This state of mind will lower your immune system, make you depressed and reduce your energy. It is a habit you want to revert if you have it. Focus on non material things, think of gratitude for the things you do enjoy in life, stop trying to control every little aspect of your physical world, and be mindful about how much stress you put in your body. If you successfully reduce cortisol in your body by thinking less in material problems, this will improve your immune system, and your body will know it is safe to spend your body resources on being creative and productive.
No cap, this video has actually come to me at a point in life were I need it the most, this video has actually made life more manageable alone, Soo glad I came across it
Learn to create a life where you can live only depending on yourself. No government, job, etc. Eat those electric foods and distilled water. Earthing. Back to basics we go weee
I grew up in so much household and war trauma, and now somehow I found myself completing my masters in neuroscience not knowing that in hindsight I was perhaps seeking answers to why I am the way I am. I found the brain fascinating but deep down it was that I wanted to understand my own. Now with the knowledge I have I can attest that the brain is indeed fascinating and capable of so much and is extremely plastic and less concrete than scientists wish to admit. It is sad that the recent narrative has been that mental illnesses are “hardwired chemical imbalances”. A definition that completely stripped a person’s self-autonomy and choice in the matter. We all have a choice and our brains are ready to listen to it and rewire accordingly. We just have to make it. I wish all a blessed existence ❤
I'll second that emotion! I felt like I was crying because of the bad stuff, but then when he switched to talking about living in creation, I had to smile and even laughed a little. I watched this during a rather stressful time myself, when I'm about to move across country with rental stress and previous homelessness lingering in my mind. It's tough to move forward into the unknown and have a little faith to trust things will work out. This video helped nudge me into a healthier direction, I think. I feel better than I did before I started watching it. We are all loved!
11:12 Take ten minutes a day to feel love for life, gratefulness, etc. 7:26 "No organism can live in an emergency state for an extended period of time." (So it is important to turn it off and take time to relax, play video-games, meditate, sleep, etc.)
This is why I started smoking weed often. LIfe too stressful, weed brings me back to normality and the present. BUt now I use meditation to do it and that's way healthier.
I’ve been living in survival mode for so long. “When you continue those behaviors for years on end they become a personality trait” yeah that’s why I feel like a shell of a human being, because I’ve just been nothing but negativity and stress for so long that I’ve gotten lost. This journey is so difficult I feel like every time I start going up I end up coming back down.
“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” (2 Cor 4:18) "Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things." (Colossians 3:2) I love hearing neurological studies on God's Truth. The way we are created, our brains our wired, and this earth is made is SO COOL. Thank you for making this video (Y)
I needed to watch this. I'm addicted to drama, or self-doubt, or that stress, though I could not quite put my finger on just why I keep cycling through these same unhealthy thoughts. It reminded me of a shamanic mentor I once worked with who mentioned addictions to other things besides alcohol and drugs, things like self-doubt and drama. Thank you for sharing this!
I really want my thoughts and stress to not take over my life. I will practice mindfulness because the feeling of being stuck in a situation that you can’t get your mind off of is the worst.
i've been living with ocd, ptsd, complex grief, depression and things of that nature. trauma is inflated by the ruminating process my mind goes through to the point where i spiraled into alcoholism, drug addiction, etc. after sobriety wasn't any better. i had an extremely abusive, and stressful childhood. i feel my mind has never rested a day. i've been in an out of therapy and tried numerous medications from 12-19 years old. i'm now just turning 20 and this was what i've been wrestling with the whole time -- and never knew how to reassure myself of psychosomatic vs. reality vs. what the stress of being this way has made me feel like. i think this saved my life.
I can't believe this is free to watch. So insightful! Thank you to everyone who put this together for us. I will be revisiting this every now and then until I've internalised the main facts, cos living in creation is exactly what I want to be doing and what I was looking to get help with when searching for a talk like this in the first place.
If you are feeling stressed or just want to improve yourself you should check out Stoism. I like this one channel call Einzelger or something he has plenty of great videos on it.
"You can turn on your stress response just by thought alone, you can become addicted to your own thoughts. Your thoughts can literally make you sick." - Wow 😱
So casting all my cares and anxiety on to God will heal me. And living out my true freedom in Jesus gave me basically. Love it! God designed humans perfectly to heal ourselves.
This also sounds like faith to me. Because when I’ve been more faithful and have problems but I truly pray and give it to God and let it go, I don’t ever think about it again. And I feel free and not stressed. The older I get the harder that is to keep doing, however, because I think I can do it all on my own. Guess that’s what childlike faith means.
I am not a religious person by many standards, but I do think there are innate values and spiritual awareness's that are taught through the community, the faith, and the passion behind religion. Barring any of the terrible greediness and wretchedness that can plague religions. I personally believe down to their fundamental ideals religion is something that everybody should have, and I mean in any kind of form. It does not have to be believing in a "god", but the ability to step outside of your self and the modernistic problems you face, to truly become one with the universe that you live in and the people around you, is something that will bring you a sense of relaxation and wholeness in your life. Accompanying this with a passion in life (whatever that might be) and a yearning desire to grow in every realm of your life. I think many young people have given up religion and the spirituality attached with it, this in my opinion causes a person to be grounded for all of their lives. They are so wrapped up in modern problems that they are not able to see the bigger picture in life and the beauty of it. People have lost the way of our ancestors and think of any generation before the last 200 years and even some after them as inferior when in actuality they had some of the most profound understandings of human nature ever. I think if more people took the time to look into getting into a spiritual mind state and to consume and be consumed by modern society they would feel much happier. All of that being said I am aware that there is tragedy, mental illness, and many other terrible things in life. Life is not perfect and there is sadness, sorrow, and despair. I think the key is to understand that there are horrible things in life that will happen, but you have to do everything in your power to armor yourself up for when that day comes.
@@TheCrazyman177 I agree, a person can spiritually "free" themselves with or without faith. Religion is not a necessity, if the person feels more comfortable & strong enough to do it on their own. A lot of people don't, though, so doing it through religious faith just provides guidance and makes the changes feel more substantial, consolidated, and real. It's just unfortunate that _organized religion_ has many negatives. It's a lot like meditation...it's very easy to do on your own, and one can learn how to do it properly just educating themselves, either reading about it or watching some instructional videos. Yet there are always gurus and instructors who want to be paid for guiding people through it. Totally unnecessary. A lot of people _want_ instructors and guidance and don't mind paying, and of course those instructors will tell you that you _need them_ so they keep validating themselves.
I am reflecting my childhood a lot recently. Truly I had no focus on body nor the poor conditioned environment and time didn’t Exist. No cell phone to take attention away. All the focus is on day-to-day life itself. No assumption no insistence on how life ought to be. Open to all the changes and new things.
If we never went through the system I believe this state could have never left. It was like it was stripped from us. Forced to live in our futures, especially in school man. You spend a stupidly large majority of your childhood 'preparing' for your economical future. Putting kids in a state of fear if they dont pass, completely putting all children in a deep state of illusion, creating a perfect robot ready to be a slave of the few. We need to make a change, it starts now
‘HRV Breathing’ or Heart Coherence Breathing. You can find it here on youtube. It’s an easy breathing technique that calms your nervous-system. Within 10/20 minutes. Easy, something anyone can do right now, for free. It did nothing short of a miracle for my mental and physical health!
I’m gonna listen to this every single day for the rest of my life, I want to make significant changes in my brain for the sake of peace and balance. I want homeostasis
This honestly made me cry a little bit. Last year i changed my studies to something way more „unstable“ and „risky“ (at least in my thoughts) than before, but i knew it was my passion. I felt stressed for the year i studied the wrong thing and the thought about „will the change be the right decision?“ Put me in tension all the time. I cared too much about social status, how people perceive me and if I could reach my own standards after the change. So I switched my studies to Design and after all the overthinking and decision making was through, I thrived in my new profession. After that, good things just kept falling into my lap that reassured me in my decision every day. I randomly met people who share my interests and work, people started telling me Im amazing in my work and I landed a job that I thought is out of my league. I am good in my field and I keep learning every single day with a motivation and passion I didnt have before. I love it and I am thankful that my own mindset has changed so much over the past year. Seeing this video also shows me that I am on the right path. Thank you.
I went through a period of pretending I was in a simulation and not to take anything seriously. People asked why I was constantly smiling. Some said I was disassociating when I told them this. I’ve relapsed somewhat in the last few years, but wish to go back to my simulation.
I've been saying exactly this for almost 10 years and even got hospitalized for it. amazing what people will cling to, however self-destructive or oppressive, in order to avoid this simple truth.
Ive been thinking the emotion of happiness since watching it yesterday and my mind has already started to reduce my over thinking. I feel peace. I hope i can keep it up!
This just made me cry. My default state is stress and anxiety. I'm constantly being treated like shit by society, just walking out of my house. Why can't people be nice
Thanks for saying this. I'm so tired of the woo-woo culture telling me to be positive. No, the reality is, everytime I leave my house something bad happens to me, or someone's mean to me, or someone lies to me. And no, I'm not paranoid and I'm not being negative.
I must confess, at some point i thought "This is too idealistic" but he did point out some real things that relate to me, from experience. I am glad that i kept watching this. Thank you, doc!
Yeah, same here. I own a small business and between the clients, employees and the economy, all things out of my control which I felt was an unavoidable state of stress. However, I also started CBT therapy and it's actually helping, so I can see how this could definitely help. That and a low dose mushroom trip once in a while lol!
I struggle with a lot of anxiety and a lot of these topics I covered in therapy. I came to the realisation that it's about focusing on the present moment, not imagining the future or reminiscing of the past. The future is a fictional concept, no one knows what will happen next week month or year so any thoughts you have about it are only speculation. It's fiction till it becomes present. My jaw dropped when double vision was mentioned. We all hear of raised heart rates, sweaty palms etc but I have been struggling with double vision in times of stress for years and never hear it covered. I think we need to do what we want to do. And if you don't want to do something, don't do it. If your job is making you miserable, leave and find one that brings you joy. I know that sounds like a fairy tale concept but as far as we know we only have one life and one chance, if we don't find a way to live in peace with our minds the stress will kill us.
If your job stresses you out, *please leave* 1) prepare your resume 2) start looking for a new job/start turning your ideas into physical material 3) schedule time for interviews/advertising 4) accept the most logical position/work schedule and never look back
@@ammumeme5789 start turning your ideas into physical material. Even if you don’t think it will do well. Your universe will send you confirmation signs to keep going in that direction. ❤️
I have a friend that yell at their 8 yo kid all the time, about everything. Not doing homework fast enough, not eating all their food, not staying focused on things, cause they are a kid etc... Literally yelling habits about every little thing. They are not bad parents, the kid is not a bad kid, actually really smart and super sweet. But the kid starts to pull her hair and bite herself saying she is a bad kid (I must be bad, cause my parents wouldnt yell at me if I wasnt.) This is stress, poor self esteem and lack of confidence that is *AUTOMATICALLY* developing within the kid, with no bad intention. Just a lack of awareness and proper attention, habits of emotional conditioning being taught. Similar to this, is why a lot of people are at unease with themselves. Even if you are loving parents, be careful. Sticks and stones may break our bones but your words will shape their growing souls, for better or for worse. Then as we grow older we start to contemplate ourselves. Trying to build on a template that was given to us in sections by all the people while we were growing up. A kid doesn't have much of a reason to wonder what might happen to them tomorrow or try to figure out why they are the way they are. A kid doesnt have to try to figure out how to fix or solve their circumstances. They are already at ease with not knowing because they are growing. We don't need to be a kid to be at ease or at peace. We need to be less grown up. Perhaps we have stopped growing, keep on growing without ever being fully grown. No need to know why or how you will grow, just experience it. We will figure out things when needed so stop the NEED to understand anything. Stop interpreting yourself in comparison to others. If you notice something that you are envious of, that is because of interpretation. Find inspiration from it instead and grow towards it, without any mental dialogue about it. Not about how you wish you have it and why it sucks, no dialogue about how or what it must be like, no dialogue about how your life will be better when you get it. When I try to think back to my childhood. I can remember experiences. But that's it! I was a kid growing and just experiencing. A kid has circumstances and an adult has circumstances who worries about them more? Be a person who is growing and just experience, take care of things as they come, not getting ahead of yourself mentally. You may find that we still have this jovial part of us when we are not spending the majority or our time thinking about our circumstances, particularly when we are usually doing things daily that aren't related to them. We just carry it as burden into every moment of our life. Time to let go and be free.
Very well said. That's why when I found out about this, I tried not to sat anything negative to anybody specially to my children. If I have something that I don't feel good for them , I silently intend for things to work for the greater good
I've been running my body and mind to their limit for more than a decade, with enough stress for a few lifetimes, and never gave myself the time for rest or consumed sufficient nutrition and it's definitely taken its toll. Finally got to a point where I decided to recharge myself and I'm already feeling my strength returning and health improving. Sometimes the hardest lesson to learn but you need to put yourself first, especially if you want to provide for, and protect, others.

Wow...this man just described my existence. Only recently am I learning how years of abuse has effected my mental and physical health. I am so thankful for resources like this.
This is true when I was dealing with trauma at 15, all I could think of was the trauma and stressful scenarios. I didn't have control over my thoughts and couldn't sleep either. Got to a point where I was starting to hear voices a few times and was scared I could become schizophrenic. That's when I decided to try to best to improve my life. I moved out and am living a good life , no more panic attacks, no more anxiety, etc.
Hi, I know you didn’t ask me, but I’d like to hop in here and answer your question if I can. For me, there were a couple things that helped enormously. First to whatever extent you can, change your environment. That might mean something huge like quitting a job, leaving a relationship, or moving to another city/country. Or it might be as simple as cleaning up your room and getting rid of things you don’t need anymore. That’s the outer environment. You also have to attend to the inner environment, for me that meant taking control of whatever I could about myself… eating better, starting an exercise routine, going to bed earlier, and perhaps most importantly: practicing gratitude. Seriously it only takes a few minutes a day… just write down as many things as you can that you’re thankful for and really let yourself feel that gratitude. It is amazingly powerful. If you can only do one thing, I recommend doing that. And as for all the other things, do what you can and go easy on yourself. You’re doing your best.
This is what the pandemic caused me. Until now, I'm still on Survival Mode. I noticed that whatever I'm feeling physically is gravely affected by the happenings around me. Thanks to youtube for recommending this video. I never thought I needed this. Really, the brain could be so powerful it's terrifying sometimes. Thank you for he enlightenment!! 💓
Thank you, thank you, for explaining the different types of stress. Physical stress applies to me as I inherited a genetic condition called EDS that effects my joints, making them too hypermobile. I end up with a lot of injuries to my joints and having connective tissue that’s too stretchy has also impacted my heart. I use meditation to help support my body and mind and I also have physical therapy which helps me to build muscles around the joints to help prevent injuries from my loose joints. It is SO, unbelievably frustrating when people seem to think that these issues are emotional. Like if I rub a magnet on my head I will be healed. That level of misunderstanding is what I mostly encounter. Thank you for this insightful video which brings everything together, I will rewatch it again later. Physical stress is on the body is real and not everything is emotional such as a car accident, genetic issues such as Down syndrome etc, aging. Some things really are taxing on the body externally and if people want to know how to better support and encourage people, maybe start by not assuming their issues are all in their thoughts.
thank you Dr Joe for these insights. Many viewers may feel "my daily situation is just too stressful and it feels like there is no way out of it, because of my past/present situation - its very difficult for me to be positive and spend time thinking positive thoughts". If this is you - then my message to you is: start small. If you can be 5% more positive today - it will make a difference. Take small steps to get out of stress, debt, a bad work situation, etc. Rome was not built in a day; and you can move slowly from a bad environment to a good one, its a journey. try it. thank you
It's my 30th bday in a few weeks, and I think the best gift to myself is a whole new outlook on life, and my health. Stop worrying about the world and how society is going to shit, and focus on myself. ❤️😊
thats surprising considering how paris let in so many third worlders that have no desire to assimilate. watching videos where the roads are lined with trash and camp sites to accommodate these people is heart breaking to honestly both of their cultres. the locals and the migrants.
I was told after my nail got ripped out on my hand that would never grow back normal again I was nine. My mother told me you can do whatever you want with your body If you don't want your nail to grow back normal because you were told that then it won't. But within two years not now grew back just as beautiful! Because I chose to listen to my mother who was more intelligent than a doctor!
All my life I've created a sort of placebo effect for myself. I've always had an unshakeable faith in my immune system and my body's ability to heal itself. It is probably at least part of the reason why I almost never get sick. I also avoid doctors like the plague, that helps as well.
🤯🤯🤯 Thank you for bringing me back ❤️ I’ve been struggling a lot as wife and a mother lately. When I ask myself why I can’t even give myself an answer. I don’t even know why. Sometimes you get lost, this video brought me back and now I realize that Ive just been in survival mode. I was to the point where I was having thoughts of “maybe I do need an antidepressant. And that is unlike me. I hardly ever take anything. This video showed me the clarity I needed.
I’m going through a breakup from a man who was abusive mentally & intimidating. I used to do so well. I broke state track records, won art contests, etc. but it all stopped when I got with him & isolated from my family. I just left & at first I wanted to run back. I thought about jealousy. Although financially he wasn’t helping me. However, I been so much happier & it’s only day 4. This video had such an impact on me. During my survival phase I was focused on time so bad. Now I feel I can finally breathe. I literally started to have thyroid problems too for no reason.. I was that stressed. Wow.
@Maseer Ghorab this is very helpful, I never quite looked at it that way. I've been feeling super anxious lately for no apparent reason, but this message really resonated with me. My body is telling me to slow down, stop neglecting the mind/body/spirit connection, and come back to my inner stillness. Yoga and meditation it is!! :)
It's all a matter of your perspective, and this is a prime example of yourself having a disempowering perspective of your own self, and others. If you had a more "empowering" perspective, you would have immediately thought of how grateful you are to have found this video, for the reason you have the ability to go and work- and fix yourself; before disease and other problems have hit you. This video is a safety net that we're all blessed to have, along with everything else this channel provides (and for FREE)
This has been the most informing video i've seen in my entire life to help me with really wanting to get passed my anxiety problems. Thank you so much!
This one good explanation of how higher emotions and feeling them, such as gratitude, work in your life. I never really got it before I felt it listening to you. Thanks . Intention + elevated emotion = transformation.

Dr Joe Dispenza's book Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself changed my life. I learned to do the meditation he's talking about here and after 6 months I cured my chronic depression and panic attacks.

I have a terminal autoimmune disease and its from being so stressed my whole life, I literally fried my immune system from the stress and working 100+ hours a week at a super high stakes job. And financially taking care of my mom, and others. Too much. It wasn't worth it. Now, I stay to myself and ENJOY my days. Doing what I WANT TO. and it has healed me so much.
im so happy for you! :)
love and light on your journey - our cultures teach too much self denial so we have to get to a state of brokenness to realise we have been doing it wrong.
That's awesome penelope.. Best continued wishes to you. I have an autoimmune disease, as well, though it's not terminal. I've offset a high percentage of the effects stress has had on me.

Having our phones connected to social media, plus watching the news (which is designed to rile you up) makes it so hard to escape these thoughts. I deleted Facebook, I turned off all notifications for my apps, and I basically did my best to turn turned my life into 1993 again. It's helped immeasurably.
Every once in a while something happens and I'll convince myself I have a need to get back online more consistently, and within a day I'm back to being a stressed out mess who can't sleep. And for what?
I love this Jill!
I don’t use Facebook much anymore either. Too much negativity
I am doing the same thing. I leave my phone at work so I can go home and pretend I live in 1975
I have also done this and it has cured my depression and anxiety significantly! I will be making a video on it soon!
I'm considering doing the same or at least reduce the social consume
Having OCD, my stress response never turns off. I’m so chronically stressed and this is helping me put things in perspective. I’ve done so much meditation but mental illness is real- also leading to more debt and job impairment. Sending love to all of those suffering.
You should listen to abraham hicks. She teaches us how to re-wire our brain into having new thought patterns ultimately changing our reality over time thriugh daily practice. It took me years but I can look back now and see how dramatically my life has changed. And even thiugh it took hears, at least Im not still in the cycle.
Look into L-theanine! It’s life-changing for OCD & anxiety, and it puts the brain into calm focused alpha brainwaves while boosting neuroplasticity to help rewire our brains.
@@NewEarthAwakening I actually just started taking it! Weirdly enough, ADHD medication helps so much with my symptoms/executive dysfunction. It can be so bad for Simon people with anxiety though. Also taking L-theanine, NAC and inositol. And trying to reduce stressors. Thanks for the recommendation
Take high quality ashwagandha daily, it may help you relax natural but it will lower your cortisol levels being produced by stress and protect your health. Kava is also good for anxiety suffers, but make sure you try it safely at home to understand your tolerance and dosings with kava small amounts go a long way. Changing our perspectives also helps, do not allow yourself to believe you can't be healed completely or at least be in a place better than you ever expected, you can. Fear alot of times is a product of feeling unsafe when we were younger, so we try insulate ourselves when we're older with having other manifested issues to create a false structure of 'safety'. Best therapy: destroy fear by doing the things you do fear most, realign your mind that you are safe by proving to your mind and body you are safe by doing those things you fear and proving to yourself you can over come all self-imposed limitations both conscious and subconscious. Hope this helps the person it was meant to find
God bless. I had OCD. It doesn’t mean it was easy to leave it (and their will always be some struggle), but I want to share something. A psychology background didn’t help. Jesus did.

A mind-blowing video. I used to be that type of student who always rushed in the last hour to study. Last semester, I studied for my final exam a night before the exam date.

I truly believe that depression is your body/mind saying “I’m sick of trying to play this role, it’s not me”’
Is more ego who thinks it should have better.
You are depressed. It means you need deep-rest. Just rest, my friend 🧡
Depression has been described as a refusal of what it is, a refusal of your situation, a refusal to accept the reality . A part of yourself aka your Ego (who’s not yourself) refuses to accept.
For me, the question then becomes: what am I going to do about it?
Indeed🎉🎉🎉😮

@Ian Corral damn, haters gonna hate. I guess you hate science, meditation, George Carlin, Egypt, Graham Hancock literally changing archaeology views in the archaeology world, you're probably a fascist/statist, etc. Haha.
I find that excitement and anxiety evoke the same response. One way I’ve reduced my anxiety over the year was to train my brain into being addicted to optimism and happiness. I let my self feel more excited about things, the small things as well. Like coffee or rain…small inconveniences add excitement to the day. Something embarrassing? It’s not anxiety evoking but something funny to laugh back at
That's a great outlook. Reminds me of "do something that scares you every day".
In my 40 years i cannot remember a single day without stress, fear, anxiety and an all consuming anger. I cannot even imagine life without it. I am also constantly sick. Got diabetes, cancer, my lung keeps collapsing, inflammation all the time, bones keep breaking, nerves in my eye are paralyzed and the list goes on. Lost about 45 kilo and i look like a zombie.

this is the message I tried to get my ex boyfriend to understand, he was so miserable and depressed - you gotta change the way you perceive the world. I tried but in the end, I had to leave. His negativity was starting to take a toll on my mental health. I am an artist normally, my life is painting and drawing. During our relationship, I completely stopped creating. I think this says it all, I was in complete survival mode, giving all of my self to the other person.
Too bad you could not understand depression is not always about changing perceptions. I suffered from sever depression since I was a kid and worked my ass off to rewire my brain. I have been depression free for 12 years now, however, you sound either very ignorant about depression or very selfish.
I feel you, my gf/Covid hook up has so much trauma so she is always wielding pain in all aspects of her life. Before we started being a thing, I was running everyday, I was extremely fit, studying/schoolwork 8-10 hours a day and was gardening since those are my studies. I’m now mostly caught up in reminding her to get a doctors help, go find new friend circles/outlets, and stop looking to festivals/drugs as the only release because it is too extreme of an outlet. It’s taking a toll on my sleep cycle with her always watching nostalgia/comfort shows all night. Finding a way to get out of where I am with her, live in a trailer on a piece of land and farm and flow with the long term neurological returns instead of always being in front of a screen.
You can’t change him. He has to want to change himself first
I feel you 🙁
I had very much the same experience. I'm also an artist. I also had to leave him. It was starting to become exhausting watching him fight imaginary demons. I would go down and try to 'fight' with him, but towards the end it just started to look...silly and unnecessary. I ended up leaving.
Quote of the year : if you’re going to create something new in your life, you have to crave the unknown!
Okay. I don't wanna be "supernatural," though. I just wanna be stress-free.
Most impactful statement for me, really resonated.
Bruh I had to screenshot this cuz it reminds me of those people who are fearless and mark off shii of their bucket list because they love facing their fears and it’s EMPOWERING 😩
Nice reminder.
This statement is 10000% true. I relate it most with information!
Min 16:50: “If you keep the same reaction lingering for hours or days, thats called the Mood.
If you keep that same refractory period going for weeks to months, thats called the Temperament.
If you keep that same emotional reaction going for years on end, thats called the Personality...”
This part blew me away!
“The unknown becomes the adventure. Why is that important? Because if we are going to create something new in our life, we have to crave the unknown”
It makes so much sense now. I can literally think about one wrong thing and it sends my whole system out of whack.
Are you using that fiction for something outside of the fiction itself there?
The weirdest thing happened. I listened to this in tje morning and then i moved on with my daily meditation. As i was meditating i felt uncomfortable, my back hurt and it was just not a pleasant feeling. I sat there trying to embrace it. And then i just heard this question ..are you in survival or creation? And as soon as i answered this my body stopped aching, i got relaxed, my breathing got deeper and easier. I am completely in awe of this

Perhaps this could be useful in the independent living programs for those who never found permanency and are older.

My wife and I have 3 foster girls living with us currently. Im glad I ran across this video, and your comment. Im sad to hear you had an abusive foster home. Take peace knowing there are good homes out there. May you have peace, be healed from your experience, and create positivity wherever you go.
society makes us depressed. we were born into this society and we dont have to live this way.
fr. this country was literally formed out of greed. (from how the colonists forced the native americans out of THEIR OWN land...its lowkey sad when u dive deep into it)
He just described the phycology of the majority of people in every hood.
@@archangelmichael2656 While I don't disagree your point, what major country has not done unspeakable things to get to where they were now? That's not a justification I just don't get why America gets looked upon as some terrible people who came to power through greed and mass murder, almost every major country did that at one point in time. We were just the most recent.... so maybe that is why.
@@TheCrazyman177 and? we should strive to overcome the negativity and create positivity and prosperity for all. bc lets face it, who WANTS to live in what i would call hell?
@@archangelmichael2656 no it was formed in opposition of control and greed, that has nothing to do with the explorers and bad people who took advantage of it and did things wrong. Those are the greedy ones that turned this country in a wrong direction
i remember when i was a child i promissed to never have stress because it caused Cancer, but i didnt know what stress was at that time...now i feel it every day
You can’t control your what happens in the outside world but you can control your inner world love it 🥰 i was feeling so hopeless and depressed over feeling out of control of my life and I can’t afford therapy right now but I swear the universe always gives me the most perfect answers that I need in the divine timing I’m so grateful 🙏🏽
I have suffered depression , stress and anxiety for the past 8 years and I’m 33 years old women .. I became so sick last year thanks for RUclips I found out I was making my self sick.. It was an aha moment for me .. I learned I have power to make myself sick and have the power to heal my self
Suffering is fictional. Are you applying that fiction to something outside of the fiction itself there?
I have myastheniagravis the disease he mentioned and i’m in shock. I’m watching this video and on this journey to heal myself from it and when i heard him say that i was speechless and started to cry lol i asked the universe for a sign and here it is. I am on the path to heal myself from this illness and get my happiness back and start living in creation. Thank you so much for this video.
My dad also has MG & when he’s completely at peace & enjoying a more balanced life, his symptoms abate. I’ll share this video with him!
Aaaawww ❤️ I hope you’re better already 🤗
How are you doing now?? Please share
You can do it!!!
How are you doing now?
Thank you for this. I’m a nurse suffering from extreme burnout. Last week I cried going to work..... and cried when I got home. There’s also stress at home, so no relief. It’s been like this for years, and it’s taken a big toll on my health and happiness. I have a lot of work to do in order to change my thoughts. At least now I see the connection.
You need to take car of yourself. It is not egoistic. You need it to survive. Never feel guilty to take your time. Otherwise you will destroy yourself. Sports. Cook. Take a walk. Spend time with your people.
Is there anything you have always wanted to do? (Fun not stressful!#)
Please be nice to yourself. Consider taking baths. Using different types of scented soaps. I created a small altar by my door and it brings me lots of peace to light a candle and to light incense. Sometimes I cry it out. Sometimes I just breathe quietly by myself. You are not going crazy. You are human. Sending you so many blessings and prayers for support. And thank you for all of the work you do. I’m rooting for you.
@@peacefulfanpuppylover2311 Thank you! I appreciate it 💗
@@beezneez2056 It's been proven that transcendental meditation really helps healthcare workers. How are you feeling now?❤💜 I'm trying every day to get rid of stress and anxiety, it helps. Yoga for the body, meditation for the mind. Be selfish this is your life💜
This is absolutely profound. I am living in a heightened fear state all the time (anyone who works in IT will know what I am talking about). What I found so amazing is this explains why I am always in such an analytical state. I over analyze everything, right down to the way that people breathe and I "predict" their emotions or intentions in my mind. I desperately need to find the remedy to change my mindset. I lived like this for 42 years of my life and I want the change so badly. Thank you so much for this information, this is helping me to find the right path.
I can so relate to that 😢
The tech advancements have come rapidly in less than a couple centuries compared to hundreds of thousands of years of adaptation to hunting gathering, then perhaps several thousand years of rapid adaptation to agricultural/pastoral settlements, to now a break neck tech advancements from the enclosure movements to the industrial ages.
Since you work IT, that is a profession where the tech exposure is ten fold.
Are you applying that fiction to something outside of the fiction itself there?
I have MS, and I had a horrible abusive childhood from a very young age. Information about these subjects has been helpful in my journey to emotional health and spiritual recovery, and whatever comes after that i can handle
This video will literally save what's left of my life.
@Chi Personally It's help me realize why it is I'm always looking for problems to solve. It's addictive and highly stressful.
@Chi Did you even watch the video? The things you choose to think about put your body in different states. Stress is addictive so you may find yourself thinking over and over about material problems, keeping your body in a state of survival, expecting danger and bad outcomes. That state of mind consumes tons of energy, it's how your body reacts when it's being chased by a predator and other dangers, taking away your body resources to focus on these problems, that often may not even have a short term solution. This state of mind will lower your immune system, make you depressed and reduce your energy. It is a habit you want to revert if you have it. Focus on non material things, think of gratitude for the things you do enjoy in life, stop trying to control every little aspect of your physical world, and be mindful about how much stress you put in your body.
If you successfully reduce cortisol in your body by thinking less in material problems, this will improve your immune system, and your body will know it is safe to spend your body resources on being creative and productive.
No cap, this video has actually come to me at a point in life were I need it the most, this video has actually made life more manageable alone, Soo glad I came across it
Learn to create a life where you can live only depending on yourself. No government, job, etc. Eat those electric foods and distilled water. Earthing. Back to basics we go weee
Chi You Apply it to your life
This blew my mind. I’ve learned more about myself in this short video than I have in 37years. Living in creation for me has been my own self healing.
I grew up in so much household and war trauma, and now somehow I found myself completing my masters in neuroscience not knowing that in hindsight I was perhaps seeking answers to why I am the way I am. I found the brain fascinating but deep down it was that I wanted to understand my own. Now with the knowledge I have I can attest that the brain is indeed fascinating and capable of so much and is extremely plastic and less concrete than scientists wish to admit. It is sad that the recent narrative has been that mental illnesses are “hardwired chemical imbalances”. A definition that completely stripped a person’s self-autonomy and choice in the matter. We all have a choice and our brains are ready to listen to it and rewire accordingly. We just have to make it. I wish all a blessed existence ❤
I actually started tearing up. I felt so moved to emotions. This was seen in divine timing thank you 💕
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Divine timing for me too ✨
I'll second that emotion! I felt like I was crying because of the bad stuff, but then when he switched to talking about living in creation, I had to smile and even laughed a little. I watched this during a rather stressful time myself, when I'm about to move across country with rental stress and previous homelessness lingering in my mind. It's tough to move forward into the unknown and have a little faith to trust things will work out. This video helped nudge me into a healthier direction, I think. I feel better than I did before I started watching it. We are all loved!
I don't remember clicking on this video yet here I am watching it. This must be it.
Same here!
As a recovering meth addict, I cannot begin to describe how much this video helped me. Knowledge really is power.
Many blessings to u!!🙏🙏
Hang in there buddy, getting sober was one of the best things that ever occured in my life. It is more than worth the struggle bus!

They way he describes being addicted to stress response is mind opening
This is why I started smoking weed often. LIfe too stressful, weed brings me back to normality and the present. BUt now I use meditation to do it and that's way healthier.
Weed + meditation way to go
I do weed + oil art painting
Use edibles. None of the damaging health effects of smoking
I do weed and cross stitch and listen to lectures😊
Weed, music and gardening. 😎
Weed creates a fog for me a dampener of life
This was like a hug for a troubled mind
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🥺
I’ve been living in survival mode for so long. “When you continue those behaviors for years on end they become a personality trait” yeah that’s why I feel like a shell of a human being, because I’ve just been nothing but negativity and stress for so long that I’ve gotten lost. This journey is so difficult I feel like every time I start going up I end up coming back down.
“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” (2 Cor 4:18) "Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things." (Colossians 3:2)
I love hearing neurological studies on God's Truth. The way we are created, our brains our wired, and this earth is made is SO COOL. Thank you for making this video (Y)
I needed to watch this. I'm addicted to drama, or self-doubt, or that stress, though I could not quite put my finger on just why I keep cycling through these same unhealthy thoughts. It reminded me of a shamanic mentor I once worked with who mentioned addictions to other things besides alcohol and drugs, things like self-doubt and drama. Thank you for sharing this!
I really want my thoughts and stress to not take over my life. I will practice mindfulness because the feeling of being stuck in a situation that you can’t get your mind off of is the worst.
Just have to catch yourself. Pause and change your thought. Reach for better thoughts, ones that make you feel good...
i've been living with ocd, ptsd, complex grief, depression and things of that nature. trauma is inflated by the ruminating process my mind goes through to the point where i spiraled into alcoholism, drug addiction, etc. after sobriety wasn't any better. i had an extremely abusive, and stressful childhood. i feel my mind has never rested a day. i've been in an out of therapy and tried numerous medications from 12-19 years old. i'm now just turning 20 and this was what i've been wrestling with the whole time -- and never knew how to reassure myself of psychosomatic vs. reality vs. what the stress of being this way has made me feel like. i think this saved my life.
I can't believe this is free to watch. So insightful! Thank you to everyone who put this together for us. I will be revisiting this every now and then until I've internalised the main facts, cos living in creation is exactly what I want to be doing and what I was looking to get help with when searching for a talk like this in the first place.
They get paid by ad revenue obviously
If you are feeling stressed or just want to improve yourself you should check out Stoism. I like this one channel call Einzelger or something he has plenty of great videos on it.
God bless to anyone reading this!
You’ve got this🙏🏽
"You can turn on your stress response just by thought alone, you can become addicted to your own thoughts. Your thoughts can literally make you sick." - Wow 😱
These concepts are in the Bible ☺
Because the more you think and be alone, the more it graviates to negative thought
So casting all my cares and anxiety on to God will heal me. And living out my true freedom in Jesus gave me basically. Love it! God designed humans perfectly to heal ourselves.
This also sounds like faith to me. Because when I’ve been more faithful and have problems but I truly pray and give it to God and let it go, I don’t ever think about it again. And I feel free and not stressed. The older I get the harder that is to keep doing, however, because I think I can do it all on my own. Guess that’s what childlike faith means.
I am not a religious person by many standards, but I do think there are innate values and spiritual awareness's that are taught through the community, the faith, and the passion behind religion. Barring any of the terrible greediness and wretchedness that can plague religions. I personally believe down to their fundamental ideals religion is something that everybody should have, and I mean in any kind of form. It does not have to be believing in a "god", but the ability to step outside of your self and the modernistic problems you face, to truly become one with the universe that you live in and the people around you, is something that will bring you a sense of relaxation and wholeness in your life. Accompanying this with a passion in life (whatever that might be) and a yearning desire to grow in every realm of your life. I think many young people have given up religion and the spirituality attached with it, this in my opinion causes a person to be grounded for all of their lives. They are so wrapped up in modern problems that they are not able to see the bigger picture in life and the beauty of it. People have lost the way of our ancestors and think of any generation before the last 200 years and even some after them as inferior when in actuality they had some of the most profound understandings of human nature ever. I think if more people took the time to look into getting into a spiritual mind state and to consume and be consumed by modern society they would feel much happier. All of that being said I am aware that there is tragedy, mental illness, and many other terrible things in life. Life is not perfect and there is sadness, sorrow, and despair. I think the key is to understand that there are horrible things in life that will happen, but you have to do everything in your power to armor yourself up for when that day comes.
I mean, this is the basis of faith, yes. To believe in something you cannot see, hear, feel, taste.... same concept
Facts it's easier to text on his promises also watch uplifting entertainment and comedy
Faith is Guidance.
@@TheCrazyman177 I agree, a person can spiritually "free" themselves with or without faith. Religion is not a necessity, if the person feels more comfortable & strong enough to do it on their own. A lot of people don't, though, so doing it through religious faith just provides guidance and makes the changes feel more substantial, consolidated, and real. It's just unfortunate that _organized religion_ has many negatives. It's a lot like meditation...it's very easy to do on your own, and one can learn how to do it properly just educating themselves, either reading about it or watching some instructional videos. Yet there are always gurus and instructors who want to be paid for guiding people through it. Totally unnecessary. A lot of people _want_ instructors and guidance and don't mind paying, and of course those instructors will tell you that you _need them_ so they keep validating themselves.
I thought that I was addicted to the pain. This affirms my suspicions.
did you start to change your negative mindset? :)
Emdr and flash therapy by an actual therapist can help differentiate actual pain and pain that is expected. If that makes sense.
Same! I’m also just addicted to being sad or just feeling sorry for myself
I am reflecting my childhood a lot recently. Truly I had no focus on body nor the poor conditioned environment and time didn’t
Exist. No cell phone to take attention away. All the focus is on day-to-day life itself. No assumption no insistence on how life ought to be. Open to all the changes and new things.
If we never went through the system I believe this state could have never left. It was like it was stripped from us. Forced to live in our futures, especially in school man. You spend a stupidly large majority of your childhood 'preparing' for your economical future. Putting kids in a state of fear if they dont pass, completely putting all children in a deep state of illusion, creating a perfect robot ready to be a slave of the few. We need to make a change, it starts now
I’m healthy in all ways, nothing goes wrong in my life and I get everything I desire on time ❤
As someone with both these diseases, this was eye opening. I've been working for a yr to get out of survival mode.
Go all organic and alkaline foods. Treat your body like a temple and you'll love the results
@@DJPacoRamirez sorry to bother you but could you give examples of alkine foods?
I used to this more acidic was healther.
There's a diet called GAPS, helps with mental illnesses, arthritis and even autism.
‘HRV Breathing’ or Heart Coherence Breathing. You can find it here on youtube. It’s an easy breathing technique that calms your nervous-system. Within 10/20 minutes. Easy, something anyone can do right now, for free. It did nothing short of a miracle for my mental and physical health!
Eye opening huh
I’m gonna listen to this every single day for the rest of my life, I want to make significant changes in my brain for the sake of peace and balance. I want homeostasis
This honestly made me cry a little bit. Last year i changed my studies to something way more „unstable“ and „risky“ (at least in my thoughts) than before, but i knew it was my passion. I felt stressed for the year i studied the wrong thing and the thought about „will the change be the right decision?“ Put me in tension all the time. I cared too much about social status, how people perceive me and if I could reach my own standards after the change.
So I switched my studies to Design and after all the overthinking and decision making was through, I thrived in my new profession. After that, good things just kept falling into my lap that reassured me in my decision every day. I randomly met people who share my interests and work, people started telling me Im amazing in my work and I landed a job that I thought is out of my league. I am good in my field and I keep learning every single day with a motivation and passion I didnt have before. I love it and I am thankful that my own mindset has changed so much over the past year.
Seeing this video also shows me that I am on the right path. Thank you.
I went through a period of pretending I was in a simulation and not to take anything seriously. People asked why I was constantly smiling. Some said I was disassociating when I told them this. I’ve relapsed somewhat in the last few years, but wish to go back to my simulation.
I've been saying exactly this for almost 10 years and even got hospitalized for it. amazing what people will cling to, however self-destructive or oppressive, in order to avoid this simple truth.
One of the best, if not the best, lectures of Joe Dispenza. Beautifully animated as well. Thank you 🙏🏻
Ive been thinking the emotion of happiness since watching it yesterday and my mind has already started to reduce my over thinking. I feel peace. I hope i can keep it up!
This just made me cry. My default state is stress and anxiety. I'm constantly being treated like shit by society, just walking out of my house. Why can't people be nice
Thanks for saying this. I'm so tired of the woo-woo culture telling me to be positive. No, the reality is, everytime I leave my house something bad happens to me, or someone's mean to me, or someone lies to me. And no, I'm not paranoid and I'm not being negative.
It's all on how you "perceive" things...lol what a joke
I have a chronic pain condition & sometimes faking that I feel better to myself is the only way I actually do. The brain is amazing
I must confess, at some point i thought "This is too idealistic" but he did point out some real things that relate to me, from experience. I am glad that i kept watching this. Thank you, doc!
Yeah, same here. I own a small business and between the clients, employees and the economy, all things out of my control which I felt was an unavoidable state of stress. However, I also started CBT therapy and it's actually helping, so I can see how this could definitely help.
That and a low dose mushroom trip once in a while lol!
Meditation and gaining control of your thoughts is one of the keys to happiness IMO. Great video, thank you
💯💯💯💯
I struggle with a lot of anxiety and a lot of these topics I covered in therapy. I came to the realisation that it's about focusing on the present moment, not imagining the future or reminiscing of the past. The future is a fictional concept, no one knows what will happen next week month or year so any thoughts you have about it are only speculation. It's fiction till it becomes present.
My jaw dropped when double vision was mentioned. We all hear of raised heart rates, sweaty palms etc but I have been struggling with double vision in times of stress for years and never hear it covered.
I think we need to do what we want to do. And if you don't want to do something, don't do it.
If your job is making you miserable, leave and find one that brings you joy.
I know that sounds like a fairy tale concept but as far as we know we only have one life and one chance, if we don't find a way to live in peace with our minds the stress will kill us.
Honestly, this channel is one of the main things that keeps me grounded. Thank you so much for sharing perspectives outside of the "norm".
If your job stresses you out, *please leave*
1) prepare your resume
2) start looking for a new job/start turning your ideas into physical material
3) schedule time for interviews/advertising
4) accept the most logical position/work schedule and never look back
Thank you Kandy King. Man did I need to see this somewhere
This is the very mindset that he is trying to get us out of.
@@streamskat emphasis on the second part of number 2
I stay because looking for a new job is stressful too :(
@@ammumeme5789 start turning your ideas into physical material. Even if you don’t think it will do well. Your universe will send you confirmation signs to keep going in that direction. ❤️
I have a friend that yell at their 8 yo kid all the time, about everything. Not doing homework fast enough, not eating all their food, not staying focused on things, cause they are a kid etc... Literally yelling habits about every little thing. They are not bad parents, the kid is not a bad kid, actually really smart and super sweet. But the kid starts to pull her hair and bite herself saying she is a bad kid (I must be bad, cause my parents wouldnt yell at me if I wasnt.)
This is stress, poor self esteem and lack of confidence that is *AUTOMATICALLY* developing within the kid, with no bad intention. Just a lack of awareness and proper attention, habits of emotional conditioning being taught. Similar to this, is why a lot of people are at unease with themselves. Even if you are loving parents, be careful. Sticks and stones may break our bones but your words will shape their growing souls, for better or for worse. Then as we grow older we start to contemplate ourselves. Trying to build on a template that was given to us in sections by all the people while we were growing up. A kid doesn't have much of a reason to wonder what might happen to them tomorrow or try to figure out why they are the way they are. A kid doesnt have to try to figure out how to fix or solve their circumstances. They are already at ease with not knowing because they are growing. We don't need to be a kid to be at ease or at peace. We need to be less grown up. Perhaps we have stopped growing, keep on growing without ever being fully grown. No need to know why or how you will grow, just experience it. We will figure out things when needed so stop the NEED to understand anything. Stop interpreting yourself in comparison to others. If you notice something that you are envious of, that is because of interpretation. Find inspiration from it instead and grow towards it, without any mental dialogue about it. Not about how you wish you have it and why it sucks, no dialogue about how or what it must be like, no dialogue about how your life will be better when you get it. When I try to think back to my childhood. I can remember experiences. But that's it! I was a kid growing and just experiencing. A kid has circumstances and an adult has circumstances who worries about them more? Be a person who is growing and just experience, take care of things as they come, not getting ahead of yourself mentally. You may find that we still have this jovial part of us when we are not spending the majority or our time thinking about our circumstances, particularly when we are usually doing things daily that aren't related to them. We just carry it as burden into every moment of our life. Time to let go and be free.
Thank you so much for this comment. Just what I needed to read
@@goodlifesince90 Absolutely 🙏
Very well said. That's why when I found out about this, I tried not to sat anything negative to anybody specially to my children. If I have something that I don't feel good for them , I silently intend for things to work for the greater good
Can you try to talk to her to counteract the negativity that she's getting from her parents? (That's child abuse, BTW.)
I've been running my body and mind to their limit for more than a decade, with enough stress for a few lifetimes, and never gave myself the time for rest or consumed sufficient nutrition and it's definitely taken its toll. Finally got to a point where I decided to recharge myself and I'm already feeling my strength returning and health improving. Sometimes the hardest lesson to learn but you need to put yourself first, especially if you want to provide for, and protect, others.
This is the best piece of advice ever for any person where attention goes enegry flows
Why is this the top comment? This is pretty half-baked, and the dude just left it misspelled as "enegry flows". The harvard guy had a way more thoughtful comment and then it disappeared.

Also why does this video have 24k like and only 397 dislikes must be helping some people.
Wow...this man just described my existence. Only recently am I learning how years of abuse has effected my mental and physical health.
I am so thankful for resources like this.
This is true when I was dealing with trauma at 15, all I could think of was the trauma and stressful scenarios. I didn't have control over my thoughts and couldn't sleep either. Got to a point where I was starting to hear voices a few times and was scared I could become schizophrenic. That's when I decided to try to best to improve my life. I moved out and am living a good life , no more panic attacks, no more anxiety, etc.
I am going through that right now, what helped you?
Hi, I know you didn’t ask me, but I’d like to hop in here and answer your question if I can. For me, there were a couple things that helped enormously. First to whatever extent you can, change your environment. That might mean something huge like quitting a job, leaving a relationship, or moving to another city/country. Or it might be as simple as cleaning up your room and getting rid of things you don’t need anymore. That’s the outer environment. You also have to attend to the inner environment, for me that meant taking control of whatever I could about myself… eating better, starting an exercise routine, going to bed earlier, and perhaps most importantly: practicing gratitude. Seriously it only takes a few minutes a day… just write down as many things as you can that you’re thankful for and really let yourself feel that gratitude. It is amazingly powerful. If you can only do one thing, I recommend doing that. And as for all the other things, do what you can and go easy on yourself. You’re doing your best.
This is what the pandemic caused me. Until now, I'm still on Survival Mode. I noticed that whatever I'm feeling physically is gravely affected by the happenings around me. Thanks to youtube for recommending this video. I never thought I needed this. Really, the brain could be so powerful it's terrifying sometimes. Thank you for he enlightenment!! 💓
Thank you, thank you, for explaining the different types of stress. Physical stress applies to me as I inherited a genetic condition called EDS that effects my joints, making them too hypermobile. I end up with a lot of injuries to my joints and having connective tissue that’s too stretchy has also impacted my heart. I use meditation to help support my body and mind and I also have physical therapy which helps me to build muscles around the joints to help prevent injuries from my loose joints.
It is SO, unbelievably frustrating when people seem to think that these issues are emotional. Like if I rub a magnet on my head I will be healed. That level of misunderstanding is what I mostly encounter.
Thank you for this insightful video which brings everything together, I will rewatch it again later. Physical stress is on the body is real and not everything is emotional such as a car accident, genetic issues such as Down syndrome etc, aging.
Some things really are taxing on the body externally and if people want to know how to better support and encourage people, maybe start by not assuming their issues are all in their thoughts.
The amount of art put into this video is incredible. I couldn’t imagine how long it took. I am so thankful to have stumbled across this video!
thank you Dr Joe for these insights. Many viewers may feel "my daily situation is just too stressful and it feels like there is no way out of it, because of my past/present situation - its very difficult for me to be positive and spend time thinking positive thoughts". If this is you - then my message to you is: start small. If you can be 5% more positive today - it will make a difference. Take small steps to get out of stress, debt, a bad work situation, etc. Rome was not built in a day; and you can move slowly from a bad environment to a good one, its a journey. try it. thank you

When I was living in Paris I was surrounded by art and creativity. My stress levels were significantly lower
thats surprising considering how paris let in so many third worlders that have no desire to assimilate. watching videos where the roads are lined with trash and camp sites to accommodate these people is heart breaking to honestly both of their cultres. the locals and the migrants.
I was told after my nail got ripped out on my hand that would never grow back normal again I was nine. My mother told me you can do whatever you want with your body If you don't want your nail to grow back normal because you were told that then it won't. But within two years not now grew back just as beautiful! Because I chose to listen to my mother who was more intelligent than a doctor!
All my life I've created a sort of placebo effect for myself. I've always had an unshakeable faith in my immune system and my body's ability to heal itself. It is probably at least part of the reason why I almost never get sick. I also avoid doctors like the plague, that helps as well.

Thank you for bringing me back ❤️
I’ve been struggling a lot as wife and a mother lately. When I ask myself why I can’t even give myself an answer. I don’t even know why. Sometimes you get lost, this video brought me back and now I realize that Ive just been in survival mode. I was to the point where I was having thoughts of “maybe I do need an antidepressant.
And that is unlike me. I hardly ever take anything.
This video showed me the clarity I needed.

Just here to say your message gave me inspiration, and you’ve got this ❤️ I’m sorry for what you’re going through
Not everyone had a childhood with that experience. This is why long-term childhood trauma is soo damaging!
Yes, I noticed that many people said that they wanted to go back to their childhoods, but mine was no picnic. Never again!
I’m going through a breakup from a man who was abusive mentally & intimidating. I used to do so well. I broke state track records, won art contests, etc. but it all stopped when I got with him & isolated from my family. I just left & at first I wanted to run back. I thought about jealousy. Although financially he wasn’t helping me. However, I been so much happier & it’s only day 4. This video had such an impact on me. During my survival phase I was focused on time so bad. Now I feel I can finally breathe. I literally started to have thyroid problems too for no reason.. I was that stressed. Wow.
does anyone else get more anxious as they learn more about anxiety lmaoo
Trust you not the only one bb
@Maseer Ghorab this is very helpful, I never quite looked at it that way. I've been feeling super anxious lately for no apparent reason, but this message really resonated with me. My body is telling me to slow down, stop neglecting the mind/body/spirit connection, and come back to my inner stillness. Yoga and meditation it is!! :)
Yes lol my heart was beating so fast during this video 😂
It's a necessary process within self evolution
It's all a matter of your perspective, and this is a prime example of yourself having a disempowering perspective of your own self, and others.
If you had a more "empowering" perspective, you would have immediately thought of how grateful you are to have found this video, for the reason you have the ability to go and work- and fix yourself; before disease and other problems have hit you. This video is a safety net that we're all blessed to have, along with everything else this channel provides (and for FREE)
Wall-E taught me that living the wonders of life is more important than just surviving in auto-pilot
This has been the most informing video i've seen in my entire life to help me with really wanting to get passed my anxiety problems. Thank you so much!
This one good explanation of how higher emotions and feeling them, such as gratitude, work in your life. I never really got it before I felt it listening to you. Thanks . Intention + elevated emotion = transformation.
