The Mind ManualThe Mind ManualEpisode 51 - Identity & the Quantum ConnectionIn this episode, we explore the work of Dr. Bruce Lipton, a cell biologist who challenges conventional scientific understanding, particularly in the area of epigenetics.  The research of Lipton and others, demonstrates that our thoughts, beliefs, and environment have a profound impact on our biology and gene expression, rather than genes solely determining our destiny.We take a look at the existence of bioelectromagnetic energy, which is an interdisciplinary field that examines the interaction between electromagnetic fields and biological entities, including cells, tissues, and organisms and how various animal species use it to navigate and communicate.   We ta...2025-03-2820 minThe Mind ManualThe Mind ManualEpisode 50 - Why We Stay Stuck: The Hidden Patterns of SufferingThis episode explores why people stay stuck in harmful patterns, even when they know these behaviours hurt them. It shows how early experiences, like conditional love or unmet emotional needs, shape the stories we tell ourselves that can lead to shame, self-doubt, and unhealthy habits as adults. Using the example of a woman longing for a toxic relationship, it explains how these patterns often come from a deep need for love and validation. Healing involves changing these old stories, addressing emotional wounds, and learning self-compassion. By focusing on self-care instead of seeking approval from others, we can break free...2025-02-0717 minMickey and the MouseMickey and the MouseEpisode 38 - Mufasa VS.

In the workplace example provided, a decision to offer a young employee minimal hours in her former field, alongside a new role, sparked unfounded assumptions among her future team. Without verifying the facts, they interpreted the decision as a threat to their positions, fuelling conflict and misunderstanding.There is an importance to emphasise adopting curiosity instead of jumping to conclusions. By pausing, asking questions, and seeking to understand others' perspectives, we can avoid miscommunication, emotional reactions...2025-01-0316 minThe Mind ManualThe Mind ManualEpisode 48 - Manning up to our Mind With Shane McManawayWelcome to the first of many important conversations aimed at de-stigmatizing beliefs, practices, and narratives around mental health, especially for men who often struggle with stereotypes that discourage vulnerability.

Real growth comes when we understand we are spiritual beings having a human experience and connect with our deeper soul, beyond the ego. Building real connections with others is important for our mental, emotional, and physical health. Research shows that being connected can lower anxiety, depression, and even improve survival rates. To find balance and happiness, we need to accept life’s ups and downs, let go...2024-10-0215 minThe Mind ManualThe Mind ManualEpisode 46 - The Transformation to be Found Through TraumaIn this episode we’re going to catch up with someone who has managed to turn her experience of enduring trauma and sexual abuse as a young girl and the inevitable fallout from that, into a journey of profound resilience and transformation. This quest led her to become an EFT practitioner and counsellor, with over 15 years of experience working both nationally in Australia and internationally at rehabilitation centres, health retreats, and in private practice.Jackie Durnin is the visionary founder of Hinterland Health Retreat, a world-first rehabilitation facility that combines revolutionary neuro-technology with leading holistic the...2024-09-1152 minThe Mind ManualThe Mind ManualEpisode 45 - What Holds us BackConsider the last time you set out to make a change. Maybe you decided to start a new diet, save more money, or finally pursue that passion project. At first, you're excited, motivated, ready to take on the world. But then, almost as quickly as the inspiration came, it fades. The thrill of change is overshadowed by the discomfort it brings. Suddenly, that new diet feels like torture, saving money feels like deprivation, and your passion project seems like too much work. So, you retreat to what's comfortable—the familiar habits, the routines that don't challenge you, but also do...2024-08-1612 minThe Mind ManualThe Mind ManualEpisode 44 - Mindset, the Meaning of Life & What Moves Chris KochIn this session, the format shifts to a fireside chat with Chris Koch, a resilient individual from Nanton, Alberta, who defied physical limitations with humour and determination instilled by his family.

We explore the interconnectedness of mental, physical, and spiritual health, highlighting how factors like diet can impact gut health and brain function, influencing mental wellness. Drawing from history, we uncover how mental health has been misunderstood and mistreated, leading to ongoing stigma. While treatments often focus on symptoms rather than causes, we advocate for a holistic approach that addresses the un...2024-05-2927 minThe Mind ManualThe Mind ManualEpisode 42 - The Power of PerspectiveToday, we're exploring how the way we see things can change everything. Our perspective, or how we look at the world, is shaped by our thoughts and beliefs. Imagine it like wearing glasses that make you see things a certain way. Sometimes, we only see part of the picture, like using a microscope. But if we open up and look at things differently, like using a telescope, we can learn and grow. We talk about how our brain works, with one side liking certainty and simplicity, while the other side likes new ideas and creativity. By understanding this, we...2024-04-2724 minThe Mind ManualThe Mind ManualEpisode 41 - How to Cultivate Greater ResilienceToday, we look at ways you can process challenging times and develop resilience. It discusses the importance of acknowledging life's 50/50 nature, focusing on what we can control, and constantly evaluating if our thoughts and actions are beneficial or harmful. This revolves around Dr. Lucy Hone's journey of resilience after the tragic loss of her daughter, where she discovered that traditional theories didn't always work. We emphasize the power of self-awareness, self-love, and making choices that align with long-term well-being.2024-04-0319 minThe Mind ManualThe Mind ManualEpisode 40 - GratitudeIn this episode, we look into the therapeutic method known as Naikan, developed by Ishin Yoshimoto in Japan. Naikan emphasizes introspection and reflection on our lives and relationships. Unlike Western psychotherapy, Naikan focuses on three fundamental questions regarding our relationships with others: what we have received, given, and caused in terms of blessings and troubles. This approach encourages gratitude, self-reflection, and a shift away from blaming others. By redirecting energy inward and fostering appreciation for the positives in life, gratitude promotes personal growth and healing. Integrating gratitude and acceptance into our lives leads to greater resilience, deeper c...2024-03-0622 minHeard It On The SharkHeard It On The SharkSun Bear StudioAbout Us: Business owners, Chamber directors, industry leaders, Main Street Directors, school and hospital leaders discuss what's happening in North MS with station owner, Melinda Marsalis.

It can feel like you're navigating a minefield of competing interests, self-interests, deeply entrenched patterns of behaviour, and people who may not show up as their best. This week I've had to face these issues head on right here in my workplace and at my son's boarding house.

I'm fresh off a trip to Vanuatu, and it's got me thinking. The contrast there was staggering – from a lush boutique resort to stark poverty, by our definition.  In this episode we explore the stark contrasts between their privileged life and the challenging circumstances faced by the locals. It prompts deep introspection on the arbitrary nature of birth, societal judgments, and the pursuit of material success. Drawing parallels with the islanders' contented existence despite limited resources, we delve into the profound role of connection and community in shaping a fulfilling life. 2023-10-2716 minThe Mind ManualThe Mind ManualEpisode 32 – Mind over Munchies – Rethinking our Relationship with FoodIn this episode, we delve into the fascinating world of the ever-evolving relationship between people and food.

Burnout is not an inescapable fate; it's a pattern rooted in our emotional realm, and by recognizing that our thoughts are optional and can be reframed, we can shift from a contracting mindset to an expanding one. Practical strategies such as mindfulness, self-compassion, setting boundaries, and seeking support are essential tools for navigating burnout, while learning to say "no" and practicing gratitude can help shift focus away from negativity.

Imagine a world where we possess the power to shape our destiny not by manipulating others but by taking full responsibility for our own worldview and returning the same responsibility to others for their experiences. In this revelation, we uncover the concept of two distinct realms of models: ours and theirs. Our thoughts, emotions, actions, and outcomes compose our model, while others have their models shaped by their unique thoughts, feelings, actions, and results.

It leads us to seek out, interpret, and remember information that confirms our existing beliefs, while disregarding contradictory evidence. This bias arises from our evolutionary development, helping us make quick decisions for survival, but it can hinder critical thinking and lead to distorted perceptions of reality.The challenge lies in our attachment to our beliefs, associating them with our identity and ego. Being proven wrong can be emotionally threatening, causing us to resist change and maintain our current beliefs. Overcoming confirmation bias...2023-08-3026 minThe Mind ManualThe Mind ManualEpisode 28 - Love Never Hurts - From Withdrawal to ConnectionThe notion that "love never hurts" challenges common misconceptions about love by focusing on its pure essence, untainted by expectations, attachments, or fears. This perspective emphasizes that love is an emotion fuelled by our own thoughts and perceptions, not the actions of others. It clarifies that when we withdraw love, we're robbing ourselves of its benefits, given the experience of feeling love belongs to the person who has generated that emotion with their thoughts. The idea of love hurting often stems from unmet expectations, and by dropping these expectations, we can eliminate much of the disappointment and p...2023-08-1621 minBeyond the OC (Welcome to the OC)Beyond the OC (Welcome to the OC)The Return of the Nana with Jaime KingIt’s a Hart of Dixie Reunion, Jaime King joins Rachel Bilson in the clubhouse and Melinda Clarke from Puerto Rico to discuss season 2, episode 21, The Return of The Nana.

Marcus believed in living in harmony with nature, both in the macro sense (universal Nature) and the micro sense (human nature). He emphasized that virtuous actions stem from living in accordance with nature. However, many people fail to do so because they remain trapped in their primal brain's instinctual desires, seeking immediate pleasure and avoiding pain. To achieve happiness and virtue, one must train the higher thinking brain to override the primal instincts and make d...2023-08-0222 minHeard It On The SharkHeard It On The SharkFine Line Fishing with Rolley TiplerAbout Us: Business owners, Chamber directors, industry leaders, Main Street Directors, school and hospital leaders discuss what's happening in North MS with station owner, Melinda Marsalis.

We delve into the concept of the microbiome, a vast community of microbes residing in our gut which plays a crucial role in regulating brain activity and cognitive functions. The communication between the gut and brain occurs through the microbiota-gut-brain axis, enabling bidirectional information exchange. Remarkably, the gut microbiota produces neurotransmitters essential for the regulation of our body and brain. Imbalances in the gut microbiome have been linked to various neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, autism spectrum disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety, and depression. 2023-07-1933 minBye, Bitches!

We explore how, over time, we compile a list of rules and expectations for our significant other, often without their knowledge, and how this can lead to dissatisfaction and even the end of relationships. We challenge the traditional model of relationships and propose an alternative: tossing out the manual altogether. By treating our partners as separate individuals with their own dreams, thoughts, and priorities, we can create a more harmonious and fulfilling relationship.

We engage in activities that temporarily numb the pain or provide temporary relief, but in the long run, these actions lead to more suffering. Our primal instinct to move away from pain and toward pleasure keeps us locked in a downward spiral.
