Ted In Your Head

Life is short and done too soon. You think you have all the time in the world, but you don’t. While you worry about the future and wish for the past, the river of your life flows through you unnoticed. Memento Mori is Latin for Remember You Will Die. Does that depress you? Scare you? If we can move past our fear of this inescapable fact, we can see life in front of us as precious, magnificent and something to be lived fully and mindfully. In this episode, Ted discusses how the fact of our mortality can keep us awake and present to life happening here, now, in all its glory and brevity. TedinYourHead.com

You have a Voice in your head. You probably know this. If you don’t, you should. You might be thinking: “What voice? What is he talking about? I don’t have a voice. Maybe he has a voice in his head, but I certainly do not have one in mine!” Well, that’s what I’m talking about. It’s OK, we all have a voice in our head. The question is: What is that voice doing for you? Is it encouraging or discouraging? Is it positive or negative? Is it really your voice or the voice of someone else? In this episode, Ted discusses the consequences of our inner voice, or self-talk, how to see it for what it is, be aware of how it impacts us, and how to begin to change it. If the voice in your head is telling you that this episode doesn’t pertain to you, then don’t listen to the voice, listen to this episode instead. TedinYourHead.com

In this episode of the Ted in Your Head podcast, Ted interviews Paul J. Hermelin, who is a certified Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) Practitioner. Paul teaches people how to manage their stress by “tapping” on select acupoints located on the hands, face and upper body, which send electrical impulses through the nervous system to the part of the brain that regulates the body’s stress response. Paul also applies clinical EFT, which combines elements of acupressure, CBT, and exposure therapy, for those clients who want to reduce the intensity of strong, negative emotions or troubling thoughts related to unpleasant memories or difficult moments from their past. If you aren’t familiar with EFT or even if you are, and you want to take a deep dive into it with an expert, Paul Hermelin is your guy. TedinYourHead.com

It’s sad that many people are really struggling with various life challenges but, are not open to talking to anybody about it. They’re simply not open to therapy for one reason or another. The idea of going to see a therapist or hypnotherapist is difficult for many people. However, just like most people can benefit from a regular program of physical exercise, most people can benefit from psychotherapy, hypnotherapy or any time of counseling from a trusted provider.

Does FEAR stand for Forget Everything And Run? Maybe a better acronym would be False Evidence Appearing Real because most of our fear is self-created. There are appropriate times for fear, such as the fear of falling or if there is suddenly a loud noise or we find a snake in our path. But most of us, on a daily basis, don’t really find ourselves facing things that are truly dangerous. We want to get a handle on our fear because fear is the biggest thing that will stop us from living a life worth living. In this episode, Ted talks about what is real and what is imagined when it come to fear. Hopefully, after listening to this episode, FEAR will stand for Face Everything and Rise. TedinYourHead.com

We all have something to offer our families, jobs and communities. But if we don’t believe this, then we will hide out and not even try. We’ll hide our light under a basket so that no one gets to benefit from it. It’s a tragedy, that so many of us discount our value, invalidate our worth, and hide our brilliance and contribution from the world. But what if we truly adopted and cultivated the belief that we are here for a reason? That we are here to make a contribution that no one else on the planet can make in the same way? In this episode, Ted explores the question of why so many of us hide our greatness.

Shame. Say the word out loud and feel its intense power. The root of the word shame is thought to come from an older word meaning to cover, as in covering oneself. When we feel shame, we cover ourselves, literally and figuratively. We want to hide from ourselves and others. The lengths we will go to cover and hide our shame can keep us from ever fully living life. It is hard to be happy, healthy and feel peaceful while carrying the ball and chain of shame. In this episode, Ted discusses what shame is, how we can tell if we are impacted by shame, and what we can do about it. If you feel that you are tied up and a prisoner of shame, listen to this episode. TedinYourHead.com
