I recently lost my Mom and almost every day now I wish I was dead. You reminded me of something my Mom always told me to do. I went in the bathroom, looked at myself in the mirror and patted myself on the back and said "I'm so proud of you" it was like she was there and I cried and cried and after almost 2 years I think I finally started to heal. I am going to high 5 and the 5 second rule as well. I don't know if it is the same thing as what you do, but Mom always told me she was proud I was her son and that she loved me, NO MATTER WHAT! She called it an atta boy. She wanted me the best that I could be and that's how she encouraged me. I honor her and miss her so much. Thank you.

Spoil alert (they talk far too long before getting to the point 👉🙄).. High Five Habit: At the start of each day, stand in front of the mirror and high-five yourself. Deliberately cheer yourself forward. 5 Second Rule: Works by counting backwards from five to one and then taking action. It helps people take the right course of action, instead of procrastinating or getting distracted by worry. By using this rule, people can gain courage and confidence to accomplish goals.

1:09 - on resistance - "every morning you drag your entire past into the bathroom with you". I laugh/cried at that truth!! At 76, I still know/carry that new girl in class being laughed at, that late bloomer being teased for not being "with it", that young wife being abused...stories ad nauseum. I appreciate the reminder that in spite of all that and also all my mistakes and shortcomings I AM worth it and I got this!! God bless ❤🙏❤

In my prayers last evening, I prayed to begin to have a better life, change mindset, peace/happiness. I recently lost my mother to Covid. Lost my car, job, etc and my heart is broken and I am deflated. Literally perusing KZbin and found this video and just thought...hhmmm let me see what this is about. I was floored by the author, Mel Robbins, and the simplicity of her motivational messages. It makes simple sense to me and it works. She is flawed and have issues like the rest of us and admits it...no sugarcoating it. How rare is that. She takes no credit for it...again, how rare is that? Instead, she extends credit back to you (and applauds you) for making the simple effort to help yourself by the simple tools she provided. I was divinely lead to this message because I needed to be inspired/blessed. I am enamored at how God still uses ordinary and flawed people to help those in need. I thank God for her because she is a gift for me and all.

I look in the mirror every morning, staring into my eyes I say, " I Love You. YOU are more than what I'm seeing in the mirror. " I brush my teeth..meditate for 1/2 hour and then pray for 1/2 hour. I was the youngest of 4 in a poor Hispanic family, surrounded by racists and sexists. I grew up codependent surrounded by Narcissists. It took me over 40 years to find myself, it happened when I got "grounded in God." 10 years later I was able to walk away from ALL the Narcissists in my life. PEACE IS PRICELESS AND IT'S THE PRICE JESUS PAID SO THAT WE MAY HAVE IT. May God Bless You all and set you free to be the best you can be for YOURSELF AND GOD 😉💞🙏.

I am so happy for you 💕👍🏻. I'm going to be 60 years old in 6 months and have been surrounded by people (family) that mean well, but are enormously toxic. Everything is NEGATIVE. they will find a way to turn a happy moment into sadness, every conversation will end up about someone dying, or with some kind of illness. And they are my siblings 🥺 How do I turn away from this. I'm suffering from depression n anxiety. I see a therapist, but she cannot understand the severalty of my surrounding. My children have isolated; and I can't blame them. In many ways, I'm glad they did. I don't want this atmosphere for them. I've try so many times to reach out for faith in God, to look at nature and find beauty, to surround myself with positive people. But It's as if inside I am all negative. I want to feel content with myself, I want to feel worthy of me! I don't know what to do anymore.

I've been watching this video and I simply have to say something. When I was 17 and attending Alateen, as the daughter of an alcoholic, I was told by my counselor to do this simple task daily.. I was to wake up and go to the bathroom mirror, look at myself and say... I LOVE YOU! As hard as it was, because I didn't really mean it, I continued to do this and before I knew it.... I DID begin to realize that I wasn't the problem and that I DID love myself. I believe this saved my life. I believe that this High-5 in the mirror works exactly the same. Good job Mel for bringing this out in to the open for people to reconnect with who they really are!!!!

Been there & truly understand. After loosing my "baby" girl whom at the young age of 32 got a rare cancer called Carcinosarcoma. We are raising her heart broken daughter that at one week before her Birthday said Goodbye. I have been spinning upon a roller coaster. I have been where I lost focus and felt at a time I was at fault. Whenever I did I remember feeling while holding her arm & hand as she passed away her spirit leave her body. Then is when I know she is beside us & behind us pulling for us all to just keep trying. Her life was a blessing to all she touched & still touches. Please know that your loved ones both in heaven & on earth are & always will be here for you. My Dad always said How you spell can't = TRY #God Bless You #KeepOnTryin 🤗🥰👍

110-115 minutes in: addresses resistance to doing this in a powerful anecdote truly worth listening to. High-fiving yourself is powerful behavioral activation therapy by acting like a person who cares about yourself - and your brain is watching. It's an act of defiance and of forgiveness. Success is not the source of self-worth. This is a good habit to combat self-rejection.

I actually did this when I was younger. I hesitated and began developing a habit and eventually an addiction to procrastinating. Out of nowhere I literally said outloud 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and I did it. And I began using this method from that period in my teens forward. I became and incredible person I never knew I could bc I held onto that habit.... Fast-forward through years of therapy and brokenness and pain, I lost sight of myself and who I was and what I could be. 💔😢 It almost ended my life. I recently heard Mel do a video and I heard THOSE VERY WORDS 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and I suddenly remembered. I'm telling you man!!! God knows we need each other, we need people we know and don't know in our lives! Because I don't know Mel Robbins, but she reminded me of something I knew before that I knew helped and worked yet I lost sight of. No matter who you are YOUR wisdom in the experience you have can and will bless another! Words of the experienced. 💯🥰

I find it’s most useful in the mornings to listen to something inspiring like this and get going. If I can do that it sets a positive spiral where I trust myself and continue getting things done. It’s the days my self trust is low that I feel like giving up and can’t do anything. Wishing you so much luck on your journey

I just want to say Thanks! I find it very hard to talk about myself but I'll give it a try. I'm a 49 year old man and all my life I have felt the way you are talking about in this video. I don't like myself. I see myself as less than and not worthy of love, damaged gross, ugly... the list goes on and on. In my late 20s and early 30s I had worked so hard to get a job after another relationship ended. Unfortunately I always carry that weight of how I see myself and felt too much weight on my shoulders. I couldn't go to work and eventually I was diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety. Went through many years of being on medication and self isolation. I still struggle with seeing people and going outside and I'm almost 50 years old. While I was on long term disability from work - back in my 30s again - and had not retired yet It got so bad that my father intervened for me. I hated it but it was important. Cops came to my house which was neglected as much as myself. A complete disgusting mess, woke me banging on the door to take my to the hospital because I was believed to be a danger to myself... this was actually before I became suicidal. I had to retire early from working an my mid 30s because of my disabilities being so sever and to this day I still do not work. The way I see myself is huge failure. No matter how much people tell me how great I am as a person I don't believe it inside. My GP sent me to a therapist and I had seen many already that didn't help. This time was different. My therapist made a connection with me I think she notice how much I feared feelings. May not make sense what I'm saying but I became afraid to feel even good things. I would not allow myself to feel anything. The point is she broke through to me and made me smile and feel good. I didn't even consciously realize that I was trying so hard to not feel things. I was afraid of emotions. These days I'm getting by but It's still there. I still don't like myself enough and the point of my long story is I get what you are saying. I went to the mirror and felt it when I high fived. It's stupid but yes it works. It's only one day but you are on to something. I hope it continues and I can be nicer to myself. Thanks again and keep doing this great work!

Thank you for your words, Krom. I've been so beat down by the battle with anxiety and depression. It feels now like trying to rebuild from the ashes. I know about the self-imposed isolation, and the difficulty of trying to talk with people, and inability to make myself go out. I'm conscientious and hard working, but the workplace can be brutal, too. You inspire me! Never give up. You're courageous.

I've been stuck and in a rut in and out in my life and l use to waste so much time watching and reading self help books. What l found most helpful is setting small goals for myself at first especially when l feel stuck. You can build up to bigger goals. Sometimes setting a goal can be as simple as getting out of bed and going for a walk that particular day. If you dream about going on holiday to the Caribbean or somewhere else then set a date when you want to go. Plan who you gonna go with. Research prices and hotels etc. You are activitly setting small goals to achieve a bigger goal. I also found setting boundaries very helpful and am still learning how to set boundaries with people so l don't get overwhelmed and stressed or upset. Also give your self permission to say No. I use to be a people pleaser mainly through my own in securities really. It was hard to say NO to people but it gets easier with practice.

A lot of the motivational speakers in the '90's whose events I have been blessed to attend would suggest that you/we/I look in the mirror and tell our person that we see that : "You are worthy. You deserve to be loved", and that you should love yourself. And I could not do it. I tried. Many times I would look in the mirror and start to do talk to the woman in the mirror and give her pep talks. I managed about 5 words. Another time, 3 words. A time after that, no words. I. COULD NOT LOOK into my own eyes. I dropped them instead and turned around and walked away. NEVER realizing until this conversation that I WAS TURNING MY BACK ON ME. I am overwhelmed with the realization of this to the point of tears forming. I don't even have words to describe how profound that realization is to me, and I have no words to how profoundly and deep this conversation resonates within me. I am SO grateful for the both of you and this particular podcast. Thank You.

@@heatheral-hammadi3046 my husband died in his sleep at age 49, unexpectedly in 2010 after 27+ years together & raising 4 kids plus others related to us who needed us bad at the time . He had blown thru over $150,000 in less than 6 weeks, I found out he hadn't paid the house note in 2 months, emptied my little checking account and had not paid utilities for 2 months. 6 weeks later the IRS came & said they were taking my house ( it only had 18 payments left on it to pay it off) to pay 256,000.00 in taxes owed to them, they claimed . I still don't know how I'm still walking here 13 years later , lol, but I made it through it all somehow with my kids, family, friends and God's great love. It was hell but I found out how to stop the house from being taken, they don't do that if you're disabled, it's your only home & you have no income so.... anyway I kept going my love for my kids kept me going looking out after them & I eventually got to a place I could forgive him . I think he knew he had bad heart disease & was dying & he about lost his mind, went wild.... he was only human so anyway, I just want to say, sometimes we are called to peace, things happen but we don't understand why, but if we keep letting love guide us, we will get there, get through it and come out changed, made stronger for it all .

I'm so grateful for this video and that it randomly popped up in my KZbin feed. Tonight I couldn't sleep because my mind and body were wide awake despite it being past midnight. I opened up KZbin to see if something could bore me into a restful state. I know that goes against all the things people recommend to help one fall asleep but that's where my thoughts were. I'm not sure what made me click on this video but I'm so glad I did. I have shared the link with two other people I know before I was even half way through the video because I know that if they'll make the time to watch this they can have a better life too. I'm now ready to get to bed but not because I was bored to death but because I feel relaxed, happy and hopeful about my future and about dealing with my day tomorrow. I'm ready to treat myself better and to see my life as choices I've made instead of things that have happened to me. I've been praying for months that I'll receive the tools I need to be better and receive the information on how to use them. I truly believe that watching this video is just the beginning to my prayers being answered. Thank you for making this available to so many people for free including myself. I deeply appreciate it.

Living a life unfulfilled is exhausting. Find things that light you up, give you energy. Free yoga vids. Swap a game or movie for something motivational that inspired and reminds you to write your own story. I know it sounds cheeky, but, with respect, there probably are a lot of people overcoming more difficult circumstances in this moment than we are. And if you don't want all those things that are tiring you to rob you off your energy, your REAL LIFE, get creative. not fancy. Just pick a little something. Something that reminds you that you have something inside you that desires real joy and true peace and what a windup thing to give just that little effort to to get started. and you have that magic 5 weddings over and over to choose this in. Just one tiny step and it's only a mountain until we take it, then it's a step behind us and we're headed the right direction. ❤

This video was amazing and left me wanting more. I just turned 52 and I was diagnosed with ADHD at 48. Which is silly, if I have it now that means I was born with it. The problem with my generation is that girls weren’t diagnosed young like children are now. There’s a real epidemic of women in and around my age being diagnosed later in life that have no coping skills to deal with their new ADHD diagnosis. We are suffering now usually when peri- menopause begins, which is hard enough for any women. I am like most people with ADHD, I have a high IQ. I had learned to utilize my ADHD as my super power. Until one day it was like I went to sleep and woke up and suddenly it wasn’t my superpower, it was my kryptonite!! I was suddenly unable to concentrate, I was time blind, procrastinating about everything that didn’t excite me. I was getting distracted by something as simple as someone’s perfume in the other room. I could no longer concentrate or stay on task. I had multiple projects started and nothing done. I couldn’t reach my deadlines when just a few year’s prior, I did everything before the expected deadline. I’ve always had anxiety and depression but now, I was plummeting to new lows and fast. It had a profound effect over my life. It didn’t help matters that no one else could understand. I felt alone and lost with no where to turn. It’s impossible to explain this to a Neuro typical person. They assume we just need to practice mind over matter or we’re just giving up. They can’t understand why suddenly, you became this new person that can barely function. If I heard it once, I heard it a 1000 times, it’s just so weird how you were fine your whole life and now you’re barely functioning. Like I wanted an excuse to become like this and had to be looking for an easy or lazy way out. It was so much easier for them to think that I just decided to become a lazy person than to believe what was really happening! I’m talking about people who knew me for year’s. My ADHD was just an excuse to them and they were sick of it. I was losing friendships that I had for years with people who were precious to me.I lost 3 jobs in 2 years. I haven’t worked or looked for work since. I don’t have the guts to barely leave the house much less work. I’m going to be homeless at the end of this month over all this and I’m just so scared and lost. I don’t know what to do! This video may or may not be a Godsend but I’m going to try it! It won’t change my financial situation but maybe just maybe, I can learn to live and love myself.

Its brave of you to say all this. Yeah..u were going at a good pace, then it gets altered by a few changes beyond your reach. I get it, having to move, new city, no supports. I pushed myself so hard. Just seemed to come up short no matter my attitude. My family cd not get the level of adapting, they are far away and thought I wasn't trying. Covid started, luckily I had a job. It became a tense scene, bosses became harried and not good w hearing the matters, clients matters. I felt I lost faith in the idea of supports. I kept working but hours were cut. Quit bc it was more effort for less pay. Crazy. I ve rested, spent time w son w Adhd. He s not motivated to do more than he is asked. I often got snarls, but I know it's wise to step out of comfort, reach out. Got counselling, worked on activities for my body, dancing, studying narcissism( old/ new friends). All sorts of people have odd ideas I would do anything w out question. I knew it wasn't all for me to Deal w children, entertain, be the free drop in center. I drew the line after being expected to do it On the spot. I love children, yet other parents attempted to Displace them onto me. It's not my Job to perform what other parents won't "think about/ act upon". A clash happened bc I said Enough. Truth is it was passive aggressive folks with no consideration of anyone else's Energy/ goals. Dropped that ball and They had to move out( problems build up bc no actions done by parents). Calm returned, I help seniors bc there is a great need. It's important, but I see there is not much support for carrying it out. Looking to drive for school busses. My son left after a hospital overnight( ER, foot pain I had). Son wanted attention 17, I had to run for medicine, make dinner after No sleep all night. No thought of how that wd be, he called me uncaring. Oof! He ran to ex, and ex won't accept an apology. Stressful bc I have to get a legal group to Hear this matter/ no option bc its in divorce agreement. I know no 1 is exempt from pain, but there s a strange expectation I never have any, I'm a machine and don't need anyone s consideration. Not balanced. So I have to plug into the help..to maybe have my son back. It's anxiety causing, I don't like this month of No one to care for. Friends, hardly can tell their timelines- looks like massive levels of Goal less days. I know I can order my day, just the distractions are not ideal, they don't Hear I need my days to go decently. Get irritation if I don't Give up my goals..thats v draining. Cut off naysayers bc they sabotage whatever ur heading to.

I think the communication between Dr Chatterjee and Mel is very uplifting and positive and we do not see this as much as we should. As a doctor and seeing positive influences from wherever it may come from is good and not to be overlooked or frowned upon. The goal is to be supportive, helpful, uplifting and a positive motivation for those who come to us or are exposed to us. Great Show!

@ approximately 26:50 she explains the 5,4,3,2,1 rule and as soon as she said it refocuses the brain and disengages the negative thoughts/feelings... that's BRILLIANT! What an amazing strategy. At the beginning of the video, I couldn't imagine how counting backwards could possibly help. Boy, I'm going to try that. Logically, and knowing what I know about depression from personal experience, I have confidence this will be a game changer.

"matthewsbrrful", Another way to challenge negative thoughts and stress by INTERRUPTING them is self - hypnosis. My favourite is Michael Sealey : there are many "guided meditations" here on. KZbin. Same process as Mel's "54321" : gives you a rest from tension, and the more you listen, the better : your SUB-conscious mind 🦉 takes in the beneficial message. Best Wishes from England 😊🌈🇬🇧 🇬🇧🦉🌈😊💙🥀

It is wild that I’m watching this video right now. I literally had this experience last week where I stood in the mirror and “met” myself. It was wild. I realized in that moment that I had previously always been looking past myself, avoiding my reflection because I was on an autopilot of self rejection that started with my own image. Divine confirmation. Thank you Mel and Dr. Ragan. This was powerful.

this is one of the best & most profound podcast conversations I've ever listened to. why? because it's real, authentic and you both are on the level. you clearly both honor & respect each other, you both share deeply personal things about your own lives and as the host, you don't waste the listener's time with mindless chatter which many top casters seem to love to do. I love the very human aspect brought forth here and the feeling of empathy & compassion you both exude. so beautiful.

That sounds a lot like all or nothing thinking...."all of us"? Some people love themselves so much that they genuinely believe they are above the rule and law of society and the social contract, and they feel entitled to special treatment because they perceive themselves as "special" and/or "unique". They believe this because their parents told them this when they were children...i.e. "We're better or different than "them". That goes hand in hand with an "us versus them" mentality. I could definitely could get on board with the fact that we "all" need to learn a HEALTHY degree/level of love for ourselves. There are pathological levels of self love out there, and that is the antithesis of healthy. There is a lot of "I'm special and entitled to special treatment or "I'm terminally unique...just call me a unicorn. Some people TRULY believe that, they're not just saying it in jest. Healthy self love....not the kind of self-love that is pathological and places you and your needs above the greater good, or places you "above" or "better than" others. There is already too much of that in the world, as it is.

I’m so glad I came across this video, it actually brought me to happy tears. I lost my job in October 2021 because of something I refused to put in my body. I worked in the electrical industry for 25 years and just like that, it is gone. I’ve been eating up all my retirement money so at the age of 52 going on 53, I have to start all over again. I’ve lost two cats in less than a year, I live in a moldy mobile home that is doing wonders to my health and my cats health and I’ve gained an extreme amount of stress weight that makes me more tired than ever. I was physically and mentally abused by a former boyfriend that by the Grace of God decided to go back to his home state and live off his family instead of me. He stays in touch only to use me until he finds another person to take care of him. Anyway, out of the blue, a former boyfriend asked me to accompany him to Florida because he’d like to buy a house. At first I thought no way and then I said what do I have to lose? Being in the sun, getting in a pool and the ocean for a week has renewed my soul. My ex was a perfect gentleman and I’m not sure of his true intentions of taking me other than I’m not working and no one else would go but he helped me even thou he needs help himself. I got back yesterday and found this video while watching something my sister sent me. It’s like God or the universe is sending me tons of signs that it’s time to brush off the worry, stress, anxiety and hurt to finally get my act together. Thank you so much for continuing the words of encouragement in my head so I can get back to the person I used to be. I loved, I had visions of a better life, I was motivated and exercised a lot, I believed I would constantly better myself and then it all came to an end. I’m feeling good today and I’m so thankful that it makes me cry.

I am SO grateful I ran into this, esp at a time I’m at a low and need something simple that can get me *unstuck* . Even in the state I’m in, I believe I can do *one* thing a day! I don’t often comment on things like this bcs I over evaluate and feel the need for it to be perfect. Well, f-that, I am going to stop procrastinating preventing myself from living and just DO things.😂 I don’t care if this is an infomercial or whatever, *it would be selfish to NOT share this knowledge with others*!! This woman’s mind is absolutely brilliant!!! I believe God has made something great out of Mel, who was valiant enough to ACT on her thoughts and inspirations in a time she was at a LOW…feeling hateful and judgmental toward herself. Thank you, I am really serious, thank you for this.I *pray* those who need to see this message will run into it like I did. .

I’m just 36:02 in on this my first time hearing both of these people. I’ve heard of Mel Robbins but never read one of her books before - I just ordered two of them. I appreciate that you both are acknowledging and appreciating alternative healing modalities outside of allopathic medicine. I have always been a firm believer in the body’s ability to heal. I also don’t think that just having letters after your name whether it be JD, MD, PhD or any others should automatically qualify you as having expertise or being an expert in any area. It just means you’re good at studying and passing an exam. It’s my firm belief that when you have an approach like Mel’s where you entrench yourself in the studying and practical application is where you make the difference for people and the world. Great podcast so far.

I decided to just listen a few minutes. Needless to say I watched the whole thing! I so wish I had known this growing up, but this is so helpful in this season as well! I am going to share this on my Facebook page and tag some teacher friends! I pray they will implement these techniques with the school kids, social media has put so much more pressure on kids today and their mental health is suffering! Thank you both and God bless you!!
