Avsnitt

  • My commentary on the lecture given by Iain McGilchrist yesterday to McGill University.

    00:00 Intro to what's the matter with medicine in a left-brain world of disconnect - toxic world vs.
    01:55 The importance of attention as a form of love
    03:00 The doctor patient relationship is devalued now which degrades the skills of doctors as well as a distortion of the body as a faulty mechanism in a mechanistic view of the problem
    04:40 Nothing in the animate and inanimate world is fixed or mechanistic - complex (living) systems are self-organising.
    06:50 A danger to ourselves - medicine and molecular biology can read the notes but not the music!
    08:20 Single celled organisms change their structure to solve problems almost instantaneously. Living systems are in dynamic equilibrium / in motion - even emotions - unlike machines
    11:30 Nothing about a cell is linear. Multiple inputs create a dynamic equilibrium. Grows by differentiation. Engage in bootstrapping - change themselves within at same time as becoming.
    13:30 DNA mapping - left brain approach saw mapping the genome as the answer to world disease but it ignored what it designated non-coding DNA as junk DNA.
    15:13 Humanities are the essential context for science - especially clinical science. Reductionist approach doesn't work. Meaning and values in life. Each life a whirlpool in the stream that returns to source when we die.
    18:00 when we lose the fear of death you see your life as a gift and appreciate the quality over quantity. E.g. money accumulation. Your body responds to how you live your life. Resonance and relationship to everything else.
    19:58 Being human is about attention and intention. Avoiding commodification and mechanistic view of the human experience makes us sick
    21:51 What makes us healthy? Shared community experience in which we can trust. Closeness to nature and connection to the spiritual (bigger than us).
    23:50 Choose your future - avoid capitalist serfdom.

    for the original lecture go here
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REB7GOxX5Mk

    00:00 Iain is a unique voice in that he marries the humanities (philosophy) and science (medicine) which gives him a broad view of the world.
    02:10 Writing my current book Mind Medicine /Emotional Alchemy (provisional title) looking at changing consciousness and therefore health through implicit memory pattern change
    04:10 Parts therapy/ IFS (internal family systems) therapy- disembodied parts argue with eachother.
    May talk to the left brain dominant!! Needs a therapist to pull back a more holistic view
    06:05 A Medicine more Fit for Humanity - my commentary. Very left brain dominant procedural occupation focused on technology and humans as machines
    08:00 Lose contextual information and meaning when we look at the world this way, lacks feeling and relational dynamic between us and the world we perceive
    09:20 Left hemisphere sees the world in parts, (ignores the right hemisphere), deluded in its representation, competition, grabbing, using things - society follows this sadly (narcissism?)
    13:41 The 2 sides are complementary, conserved in all mammals, separated by Corpus Callosum
    15:06 The way we pay attention changes what we find in the world and who we are! Disembodied, disconnected may be as a result of the deficit of the right brain.
    16:20 Medicine is an example of 'left brain' approach that seeks to understand things by studying constituent parts. Right brain understands there is uncertainty in understanding anything this way and we have to have a more wholistic view - opening up to possibility!
    17:25 Transforming people into the realm of possibility - where diagnosis goes wrong - Life Beneath the Labels. Left brain that seeks control the uncontrollable takes us down into disconnect. and fear
    19:26 Getting into implicit, creative view of the world. (work of Martha Beck) getting out of anxiety by getting into the body and looking at your whole world view not as malfunctioning machine.
    20:50 Any dis-ease is biopsychosocial - reflecting the whole of you. Needs to be treated as such
    21:26 Left hemisphere creates a map of the world which is inaccurate, but very compelling. Doctors train in this very view, which limits their ability to help suffering people (a problem of reductionist, technological medical training).
    23:50 This hurts not only patients but also medical professionals - no connection leads to mental health issues for all
    24:40 Complex systems (which we are) need complex nuanced solutions to learn about themselves in the depth of their being.

  • Men and women - the difference in how stress operates and how it manifests. And why men are less likely to admit they need help
    See this article for more details on gender differences in neurobiology
    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3425245

    00:00 The stress response in men and women are different - physiological differences in brain organisation. Fight and flight vs. Tend and befriend.
    02:31 Emotions are part of that system that communicates safety biologically. When symptoms arise, women are much more likely to notice and respond to them.
    03:30 Men much more likely to come when things get so bad that they can't fix it themselves. Shame in needing others (being emotionally vulnerable) is cultural.
    04:45 Childhood experience is hugely landscaping of men's and women's brains. High sensitivity is just as common in boys as girls (orchid children). Emotional suppression more common in men.
    06:08 Trauma embeds itself in body memory (instances of not having emotional needs met). Anxiety is present in both men and women but presents differently - can be more melancholic, shame filled.
    07:57 The body presents its bill through symptoms, and it needs inter-relational safety to connect with the sensations that mask the underlying emotions wanting to break through.
    09:20 Children have to attach to survive. Strategies develop as a means to manage the situation. But they become dysfunctional later in life particularly in relationships - which causes more shame.
    11:22 The dysfunctional behaviour is not the authentic person but the coping mechanism. Learning to express yourself emotionally is vital to full health.
    12:50 How to contact me - experience somatic psychotherapy which tracks sensations in the body which are proxies for the emotions that could not be felt.

  • Lessons from the life and untimely death of Amy Winehouse after watching the movie Back to Black and also reading The Myth of Normal by Gabor Mate. How nervous system dysregulation plays out in the life and how it inevitably takes its toll as we seek to calm our nervous system in any way we can.

    Luckily with support and proper tools it IS possible to quell the anxiety that leads to all kinds of addictions. Learn how you can do this to re-connect to safety inside.

    00:00 Intro - movie drama Back to Black about the life of Amy Winehouse and an interview with ex-husband Blake Fielder-Civil. Usually regarded as the 'bad boy' in the story, was also very young and dys-regulated (no family support)
    02:40 The film shows a rather cosy view of her family but we know that she lacked support from her family also - her mother (ill), her father (somewhat childlike in many ways) and her Nan (the best emotional support she had but who sadly died at the height of Amy's fame). No wonder she was attracted to Blake and alcohol (and later hard drugs)
    05:35 A more nuanced view is that she was lead to these adaptations /strategies to regulate the dys-regulated nervous system - the early life experience is the most important developer of our stress response
    07:00 According to Gabor Mate in The Myth of Normal parents are both important but under-supported themselves, so it's no wonder that things go wrong - the neurological payoff of poor attachment is huge in the lifespan
    09:00 Societal pressures are also huge - social media and access to information that the nervous system cannot always make meaning of without overwhelm. Triggers in adulthood will easily then create addictions.
    10:30 Tools that we can use - e.g. touch based havening is bottom up from the body to the brain (somatically) via feelings rather than thoughts.
    12:00 demo of havening showing the importance of interpersonal support. Connecting with a safe nervous system. Other tools - cranio-sacral therapy, breathwork and humming/chanting (voo sound) helps to stimulate the vagus nerve (calming)

  • I've become aware that vulnerability is key to true creativity - you cannot create something new without risk. Find out how I've discovered this in my own life and work - with the help of some others who've explored this - Brene Brown, Gabor Mate and King Charles!!

    00:00 Intro to Vulnerability is the key to Creativity - work of Brene Brown
    01:00 My first proper published book (by Mercury publishing) arrives from the US - makes me potentially more vulnerable because I will be promoted!
    02:52 Harmony by HRH Prince of Wales (Charles - now the King) Book Review - the fact that it was written in collaboration - was it ghost-written?
    04:45 Does co-publishing with others make you less vulnerable in your creativity - Gabor Mate talks about this in his new book The Myth of Normal co-written with his son as a joint enterprise
    06:42 Vulnerability exposes feelings of unworthiness which show up in surprising ways - as unconscious memories of trauma
    08:42 Childhood trauma gets stuck as patterns of belief which may contradict as messages of who you are
    10:18 Marianne's message of our vulnerability - 'our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, but that we are powerful beyond measure' builds an adaptation to over-achieve
    12:16 Contentment/peace can still be elusive if we haven't changed the essential pattern of feeling unworthy of success creating unconscious sabotage as recurring patterns
    13:46 All of us are vulnerable to these scripts from the past. Need to engage with them and transcend them by being witnessed. Exploring a new response by being challenged.

    for my books see below

    00:00 Intro - why I chose this conversation to comment on - older women are so under-represented
    online
    03:00 The rise of loneliness in an age of hyper-connectivity
    06:00 Ambiguous loss/ counterfeit connection is being in a process of grieving loss whilst simultaneously being with someone
    08:25 Traumatisation/ dissociation is the same feeling
    09:19 Denies the complexity and messiness of real relationships
    10:40 Polarisation and division is driven by this disconnect, lack of friction to create something new. The willingness to engage in 'fierce intimacy' even if you disagree
    12:19 Modern loneliness masks as hyper-connectivity - likes and dislikes become the foundation my self-esteem. Feeling like you don't belong anywhere
    14:00 Missed bids for connection and compromise are absent in online discussions, commodification, dissociation
    16:20 Happenstance, serendipity of spontaneous conversations are absent
    17:45 Mental Health crisis - or a reasonable reaction to a dysfunctional society? - see The Myth of Normal by Dr. Gabor Mate. Craving connection our brain will flit around - ADHD!
    20:00 The quality of listening shapes what you will share. A mutual exploration.
    21:00 Vulnerability is something I work with as a positive attribute. Community group every month a place where we can meet in our own uncertainty and still be loved and heard.

  • In this audio I describe this ground-breaking information on how to heal with psychedelics from the book How to Change your Mind: The New Science of Psychedelics by Michael Pollan.

    The article I mention By Robin Carhart-Harris on The Entropic Brain on psychedelics is here https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnhum.2014.00020/full

    00:00 Intro to the book and my work
    02:40 outline of the book: history, natural history and personal experience of the author Michael Pollan, origins of psychedelic research LSD/mescaline - began in the 1940s/1950s with the 1960s counterculture and anti-war movement
    04:59 The War on Drugs began and class A restrictions still in place 50 years later.
    06:21 His own experiences with LSD, psilocybin and DMT
    07:00 The neuroscience - switching off the Default Mode Network in the brain creates unusual new connections. Disconnection dissolves - we become one with all that is and love as the ultimate meaning
    10:16 Drug assisted psychotherapy - the research from the US and the UK - particularly at Imperial College, London under David Knutt - one of the major research groups in the world. The new renaissance.
    14:20 Predictive coding is how the brain avoids uncertainty - entropy is controlled therefore by making things predictable and limited. New states require rewiring of regular reality to include magical thinking much like young children have with neuroplasticity
    17:00 New expansive awareness has HUGE potential for healing disease states like depression, anxiety and addiction, overcoming the fear of death in terminal cancer patients but also promoting creativity and productivity in healthy people (when microdosed)
    19:24 The potential to help trauma/PTSD when traumatic memories are over-written by psychedelics and other forms of altered state promotion like EMDR. All require a safe therapeutic container.

    Look out for my new book tentatively titled Mind Magic - summer 2024

  • Psychotherapist Virginia Satir (1916 - 1988) remains one of the most influential family therapists there have ever been but she is virtually unknown now outside of psychology. She taught the importance of feelings over thoughts and blew the current understanding and practice out the water with her emphasis on safe emotional connection and the reasons people repeated certain scripted behaviors. Her work was the basis for Richard Bandler's development of NLP but she is seldom acknowledged or celebrated.

    When I was a fledgling therapist I was asked to model myself on someone who worked the way I wanted to and I found her by accident and noticed something very important. She touched people! Both figuratively and physically she stressed the importance of safe emotional connection through touch, sight and sound. She believed everything was vibration and that to be human was a magical thing of divine expression.

    Find out how her work has influenced mine and what I wished I'd known about self-esteem and becoming fully human.

    Her expressed wish was that everyone could look the mirror and say "the world is a better place because I'm in it".
    Find your work here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ITT44xDLXI

    00:00 Intro to Virginia Satir as a model for the work I now do
    03:00 The importance of emotions in working with people in therapy - sight, sound and touch (sensory inputs through the body) enables people to feel safe and is the basis of behaviour
    06:11 A faulty model of the world that we learned as children becomes the basis for how we related now - a faulty projection of reality. Power vs. intimacy.
    10:05 The body expresses the dysfunction because the mind cannot (it's repressed). Rage then ensues which is driven into symptoms.
    11:48 Power dynamics between people. Being present vs. being defended. Freedom to disagree via safe connection vs. reactivity.
    13:07 The need to be right will be defended even if it is dysfunctional (Peter Crone) to avoid feeling uncertainty.To be truly intimate have to be willing to acknowledge difference.
    15:53 Each human being is the unique manifestation of a divine force. We need time to explore ourselves to be in true relationship with others. We ask to be heard by someone.
    17:30 We are vibration - so how we use our bodies matters. Being in true connection whilst disagreeing gives us energy. In battle with our experience.
    19:34 The importance of meaning and interpretation in communication. Having an accurate picture in order to respond appropriately
    21:56 How the vulnerability of not knowing is part of the solution not the problem. Our difference needs acknowledging and a willingness to not know.
    23:32 Every situation in our life in which we struggle shows us where are not free or out of alignment with our true selves.
    24: 30 How I work with the body to build self-esteem

  • Anxiety is not a disease in the sense that doctors describe. It is a message from the body that something in your environment feels unsafe.

    For original article I'm commenting on go here. https://www.carolynspring.com/blog/six-steps-to-managing-anxiety/

    00:00 Intro - everyday trauma impacts the mind to create a sense of unsafety which can be easily triggered in current life causing anxiety as a symptom
    02:50 Anxiety has a purpose - to keep us safe the amygdala will fire a warning signal to DO something to change our situation. Anxiety is normal - to draw your attention to something emotional that hasn't been resolved activating your sympathetic fight and flight system.
    05:00 A backbrain phenomenon from past trauma in your history that was unable to be processed.
    07:10 Lack of belonging, status, and safety can create physical symptoms of collapse including insomnia. Getting curious as to how to make your environment safer and learn how to soothe yourself.'
    10:00 Relational safety. Stressful, competitive, insecure environments.
    12:12 Managing anxiety with havening, breathwork, play and connection to overcome nervous dysregulation. How to collaborate with you body via sleep, diet and movement, especially walks in nature and allowing.
    14:40 Cognitive reframing - not being anxious about being anxious. Making friends with your anxiety.
    Not making it your identity. You are doing anxiety, showing this behaviour, especially when highly sensitive. It's not who you are.
    16:31 You are not ill, you lack the skills you need. I teach this at my monthly Community group calls (see my website below to book)
    17:50 Your focus matters - not broken but wounded. Get help and support (not try to fix it) but to be with you while you learn what your childhood adverse experiences have created.
    20:00 Increasing resilience by dealing with the past needs another to help you. And they have to be safe to you bodily. That's why I do Discovery calls prior to re-regulation work.

  • A new 'Magic Bullet' that few people know about (including your doctor!) ... The importance of Methylene Blue and how it might transform human health particularly in areas of low oxygen delivery (fatigue states, depression and neurological damage).

    Check out the original recording with Dr Gonalez-Lima on https://deeprootsathome.com/methylene-blue-memory-mood-parkinsons-adhd/ (see the original on rumble linked from there).
    See more info on dosing on that website
    See his latest summary paper on MB + photobiomodulation with neuro-inflammation here https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36203812/
    He can also be found on various podcasts here https://www.ihmc.us/stemtalk/episode-107/

    00:00 Oldest known drug used for emergency room cyanide poisoning
    02:20 Electron Transport Chain in Mitochondria - how it produces cellular energy - a series of reduction/oxidation (redox) reactions where electrons are released - reduction is loss of hydrogen ions (protons) and gain of electrons
    05:20 What gets in the way? Cyanide poisoning and some virus infections like HIV or covid, causing low oxygen delivery and assimilation
    07:50 Long history of use as an anti-viral against Ebola/HIV and anti malarial.
    08:25 MB structure - electrons held in a ring structure as a chromophore (like coloured foods).
    10:20 Absorbs in IR range - molecule structure is auto-oxidant as well as electron cycling
    12:00 Hormesis and biphasic response operates in CFS/ME - at low doses it is advantageous at higher doses can be damaging
    14:00 Neurological benefits in healthy people at lower doses - slow aging, dementia, Parkinson's, as well as a powerful antidepressant , etc
    15:14 MB is off patent so not supported by Big pharma unlike anti-depressant drugs which are less and less effective - 'treatment resistant depression'
    17:30 High permeability as it passes the blood brain barrier and can optimise cellular respiration with well people. So enhances metabolic production enabling better healing, memory, aging i,e is a nootropic as well as a drug for acute medicine.
    21:00 Also upregulates (increases) gene expression of protein (enzyme) production longer term thus increasing capacity for oxygen metabolism
    22:00 CFS/ME is a form of metabolic 'poisoning' driven by emotional stress and toxicity
    23:20 Cure for bladder infections - becomes pro-oxidant in oxidative stress especially important with the elderly
    26:40 Brain function and neurological issues must be coupled to haemodynamic response between oxygen and nitrous oxide in Complex 4 (cytochrome oxidase) facilitated by MB
    29:00 Enhancing mental function including extinguishing trauma memories and MB in memory reconsolidation
    30:20 Topical application using photobiomodulation of skin tumours with MB and IR light
    32:30 Disclaimer. Always contact your medical provider as there are some contraindications. However be aware most doctors are unaware of MB except in emergency situations. Please refer to Dr Gonzalez-Lima's papers to educate your doctor in low grad applications.

  • Healing needs the body AND the mind to be engaged with a multifactorial approach. Modern medicine ignores this and concentrates on a single solution which often creates unwanted side effects.
    Using a biospsychosocial approach makes much more sense.
    Find out how to take back control of your health.
    Includes updates on Methylene Blue and Hormone Harmony.
    See the work of Dr Ellen Langer on MindBody Unity

    00:00 Intro and update on MB practice - how to avoid dying your tongue blue - add to Vitamin C or drink with a straw. Urine will inevitably go darker once you reach tolerance.

  • Update on week 2 in the microdosing experiment with psilocybin PLUS a discussion of 'The Psychological Drivers of the Metacrisis' with Iain McGilchrist, Daniel Schmachtenberger and John Vervaeke.

    In this video I discuss my changing experiential awareness when on microdoses of psyilocybin and how it enhances productivity.
    As part of my ongoing journey I am finding myself drawn to discussions of a new connection to the world we inhabit. The above discussion particularly caught my attention (beware it's over 3 hours long). https://youtu.be/-6V0qmDZ2gg?si=_LRFkZ_F8PJJZYLo

    00:00 Intro to the protocol and journey
    01:41 Experience of soullessness in the built environment
    02:35 Going into colour as part of me and startling dreams of 'unacceptable' anger
    05:10 My research examining the psychological crisis we're in - my summary of three wise men discussing the state of our world (nothing to do with Christmas!).
    07:00 Iain's view of the left brain dominant culture we're in - left and right hemispheres view the world in very different ways drives a worldview that leads us to create mass extinction
    10:00 What we focus our attention on determines what we see. If that is isolation and disconnection this distortion of reality creates realworld impacts like physical illness
    11:00 My sudden awareness - a crisis of meaning in our lives. Mine was a lack of belonging when I lost my home and my relationship.
    12:31 Being unwelcome /isolated drives physical illness - 80% of people in the UK feel lonely
    14:00 A wider meaning lost in a secular society - lack of spiritual connection/bigger purpose
    15:22 Spiritual connection drives a sense of mattering to other people within a community
    16:18 Meaning and purpose are not the same - transcending individual self
    17:28 Disconnect drives anxiety and depression limits and distorts reality
    18:26 The body and feeling states is missing in this discussion entirely
    20:05 Implicit memory stored in body often triggers anxiety - requires somatic connection therapies
    21:01 Psychedelics allow a bigger picture awareness - especially in high doses where set and setting is SO important
    22:57 Brian Wilson's LSD experience - enhanced creativity but then blew his mind in a negative way
    24:00 Productivity as a flow/coherent state not an end in itself - my experience of book writing/researching
    25:50 Changing lives one person at a time, via the body and with a more feminine energy
    27:00 My middle-aged perspective

  • Here i am reviewing and interpreting the book The Road to Character by David Brooks.
    How we find meaning and authentic expression in life is not through avoiding suffering but how we deal with our subsequent demise. Whether through illness or other struggles we all need eachother to help pick ourselves up and make the world a better place.

    00:00 Intro to the book The Road to Character (2015) - how I came across David
    01:23 What is character? Not your cv description! but an authentic journey
    03:00 Stumbling is part of life... "'sin' and humiliation are woven through life"
    04:42 How you make meaning - shame /humiliation/ vindication vs responsibility and humility
    06:10 How reaching out to others enables us to recover - engendering hope
    07:41 The greater good rather than the suffering of the individual - redemption follows a willingness to reach out
    09:05 From the valley to the vision is a journey to attachment and community - finding your tribe
    10:30 Reverence gratitude and wonder as antidotes to depression
    12:10 Acceptance - is changing the beliefs around your deservingness of love (worthiness)
    13:00 Joy is for everyone not because you are perfect but from being authentic - a gift when you least expect it
    14:00 Reach out for help if you need it!

  • Here I look at Birth Trauma and how it affects everyone (not just women who give birth!). Birth is the single most important event in everyone's life and how it happens determines the quality of our lives - especially in the area of health and wellbeing. It shapes the understanding of ourselves and our relationship with others. If it is traumatic in any way, that plays itself out as internalised shame and this will make us angry, disconnected with a constant feeling of 'not enough'

  • How empaths (highly sensitive people) become people pleasers who fail to get their emotional needs met. The roots lie in childhood attachment.
    How you can change this pattern.

    00:00 Intro and why most of my clients are empaths/ HSPs
    01:46 Trauma is difficult to process in childhood - and needs a grounded parent to allow emotions
    02:50 Beliefs drive 2 strategies: narcissism or empath/co-dependent
    04:16 Empaths look for cues of safety in your environment/others - drives anxiety and people-pleasing and never saying no
    06:07 This pattern is extremely stressful and exhausting - need to learn to be individuated and in your body - being ok with your own vulnerability not running away from your feelings.
    07:50 The journey to self-hood begins with the body and and havening
    09:20 Then breaking free from parental/ relational expectation introduces discernment and teaches worthiness
