Podcast 288: A Neurocycle to improve low self-esteem & lack of confidence

[@lisaparsons3767]

I am a therapist working with a group of people recovering from childhood emotional wounds. We have started listening to this podcast and then discussing it. Thank you Dr. Leaf. Your book is on it's way to my office!

[@Medietos]

Lisa P, How come psychiatry promises to help but never do, and wasted my time for decades and broke my life-will, functions down by things like cognitive dissonance,not meeting me, not engaging , not treating even with stress management, nothing?, please?

[@kathygildea2025]

Dear Claudia, I think psychiatry has changed so much since we’ve 70’s when I saw one, even into the 80’s Which is the last time I saw one. Since the. I’ve gone to psychologists, because I’ve seen where I waited for a half of yr to get my grandaughter in. She literally as her dr for 10 mins, the. After when a prescribed of medicine, never again did he speak with her, so went went elsewhere. The medical field has changed so much, just look at how much help with can find online free., from the comforts of our own homes!!!

[@kathygildea2025]

Sorry all of the typos!!!!

[@lisaparsons3767]

@@Medietos Dear Claudia, I am sorry you have had such disappointing outcomes. Addressing your pain filled questions would take a lot more time and space than what I can give in this thread. What I can say is that recovery from emotional/mental pain is a journey that takes teamwork with therapists and psychiatrists offering their knowledge and the sufferer inputting the majority of the effort. Professionals cannot promise anything more than the knowledge that they have gathered. I depend on experts like Dr. Leaf to add to my knowledge base so that I can give that to those who come to me. As a Christian therapist I also offer my prayers which I believe are also powerful. As another human being who has suffered abuse resulting in anxiety and depression, I have had to put in a lot of effort towards my own outcomes. This IS the harder part of the work. But it is worth it.

[@Medietos]

@@kathygildea2025 Yes, but it doesn't help the likes of me heal in this bad a situation, it only helps to not give up and not go totally crazy, and gives some theoretical knowledge. But theory seems to have made things worse for me, many less knowledgeable professionals as well as private ppl seem to be of the false notion that intelligent ppl can help and cure themselves. Of course one can from minor things and if having access to resources. bUt not in my case, where everything is lacking, and not having access to society's resources, Aspergers being the big aggravating, complicating problem. Or is it the C-PTSD, because Aspergians without it can get good help. If only they had been honest, benevolent and open to me and not deliberately made smoke-screens and harm, I might have managed. At least better. I am sorry about your niece. If she has intelligence, ask her to stay away from Psychiatry and seek TCM-help or by a good Naturopath, or a góod Nutrition Therapist.And do it while young, it is easier to heal then. And it is getting harder because of all the toxins and radiation + low-nutrient foods today. And one has energy while young. Once burnt out with the decades of abuse by health-care, on may not be able to make use of ones acquired knowledge and wisdom.Later stage burnout is very difficult to heal from, and with psychical problems, even more so, because one gets somewhat self-destructive with the time of many instances of abuse by the one's supposed to provide help/assistence/therapy. I suspect from experience, that many therapists want easy cases. That is supported by the therapist Daniel Mackler (See his KZbin videó), who quit becaúse he was different. It is so awful how his colleagues let him take all the heavy cases and the one's with little money. This therapist Lisa seems unusual and I am glad for her patients. I think many go bad because they lack a spiritual view of the human being. If we "are" just an animal and not the infinitely valuable crown of creation,, the consequences can be that we aren't worth saving and abortions can be done for profit.

[@PassionsForHer]

I live in Swaziland a tiny country right next to South Africa (I lived in South Africa for many years) and unfortunately that story you told about a teacher talking about a stupid student is a sad reality for us, especially in government schools. Most of my trauma has come from teachers literally speaking death over my life for many years. I literally grew up believing that I was dumb. It was only in my first year of university that I discovered that I’m actually quite smart and got amazing grades. I no longer had the teachers that were constantly speaking discouragement over me. I feel so hopeful just from watching your videos. Thank you so much for the work that you do. God bless you ❤️

Why is mankind, you and me as we are? Without covering it up with all kinds of lies and excuses which do not satisfy the soul, that by the touch and grace of God seek's light in the darkness. The Word of God clearly explanes this, it is the fact that we are a product of 6000 years of human exsistence without our Maker, and void of a true relationship with our Father in heaven. This distence made us orphans and we are spiritualy lost children who grow up and are shaped in a world that is in the grip of sin and death. like a child that tries to make the best of beeing spiritualy homeless it does not work you need to come home. Our Maker our Father's call is through His Son His Word. (By the grace and the love of God poured on me by His Son it a absolute honour to share the Word of our Maker with any one who has been blessed with ears to hear and a hunger for truth.) kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWqpfKKbltOAm7M Matthew 11:27-29 Words of Jesus Christ: 27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. 28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

[@reginadroll7285]

Thank you so much Dr. Caroline Leaf, I have been listening to this all afternoon pausing it and taking notes. It is so timely. Thank you is just not even enough! Thank you for all you’ve done to even share this with us.

[@jasonbryan9056]

How are you doing 😊😊👋☺️

Thank you Dr. Leaf for existing ❤

AMEN & AMEN.

[@abbasjoy4785]

I just found out about Dr Caroline Leaf, thank you Ma'am! I am so surprised that this video doesn't have more views. This is soooo vital to life, physically, spiritually, and so on.. I am so thankful. I will be listening, studying and applying.

[@nailswhope]

Yes I felt the same, I constantly find a reason online to tell other's about her. Good luck 💜

[@cathybutcher4826]

Agree Abby! The world definitely needs more Dr. Leaf!! I'm so happy that I found her. Blessings to you!!

[@ericanderson4460]

I really appreciate your comments about nature and nurturing complementing each other

[@crystalmercer4056]

Dr. Leaf, THANK YOU! Since I've been viewing your podcasts I've learned so many things that I didn't have knowledge of. These things have been so beneficial to the healing and repair of my mental, emotional and cognitive health. Your teachings have even paired wonderfully with my therapy that I undergo. God bless you!

[@DemiMee]

I've watched a few of your videos but this one has been the best yet, really clear and in-depth knowledge, and its just what I needed to hear, to once again remind me that I sacrificed my needs and my identify to please the 'absent' parent. I've been working on my wounds many years now, but it's good to have the reminder that I can still return to my original 'forest path' :)

[@dianneng358]

Wow!! I am truly blown away by what I have learned about something that each one of us can do that other people can't do. I am the type of person that always genuinely compliment others for being smart or when they look nice but I always wondered why certain people never say these things to other people to motivate them. I don't like competing because I know that each one of us is unique and we can never be like the other person. I feel frustrated when someone is imitating me and try to outperform me. Thank you so much for making this clear.

[@enlightenedhummingbird5101]

I agree with all the positive comments here. I just found Dr. Leaf yesterday and am binge-listening today. This is what has been missing in my life as far as recovery tools. Thank you! ❤ And I'm so curious as to why anyone would thumbs-down this very important information... 🙍

[@Carol-br3bd]

Love the story of the teachers meeting and the support for the student that was given. Lots of things Metacoging can help in low self esteem or the opposite end of the stick , pride and arrogance..when out of balance it seems to create an unhealthy self-centered situation...I found this word of wisdom that I thought was fun....here it is..."Your life is a garden, your thoughts are the seeds, if your life isn't awesome, you may be watering the weeds..."lol I added the YOU MAY BE, to the saying cause I realize there are other issues in peoples lives too..You have always said that we may not be able to control the circumstances but we can control how we react...such good advise.. thank you Dr. leaf for all you are doing to help us to understand the physics of thinking...

[@ЮлияЯблочная]

So grateful for what you are doing and for your encouragement. With love from Ukraine.

[@veronicak1036]

Our identity is in Christ and that changes everything once we get a revelation of this!

[@Medietos]

Veronica: Isn't it both , though, since we are (hopefully) individuals as well? I wish christians would express themselves more pedagogically so we could understand instead of be unnecessarily put off. more would become christians if things were told in better ways fro outsiders. So sad there are so few christians around to teach/ mentor. They can become chauvinistic , exploitative if not really healed before evangelising.

[@rockjockchick]

I just finished your interview with Lewis. Your work would be so helpful for kids with reactive attachment disorder! Keep spreading the news!

[@ntamanasha7005]

That is interview is the one that brought me here

[@CatherineRozanski1963]

Thank You so much Dr Leaf...This made total sense, I totally hear you & will try to implement your incredible advice. After facing major adversity in 2004 (by trusting a life-partner instead of my own incredible self) Life is like walking with lead boots on as no-one close to me will allow me to grow again which affects my confidence & self-esteem. In turn is now affecting my well-being. My core know's who I am, my identity & my value on society. Implementing the brain preparation & re-conceptualisation program will help me excel & become the person I am once again. xXx
