There’s a very popular concept in psychology called the Mirror. It’s the idea that all our thoughts and feelings about the world are simply a mirror of what we think and feel about ourselves.  

In this episode, I want to explore your own personal mirror. The reflection that you are projecting onto the world, that is affecting every thought you have.  

And today, we’re especially going to look at how your negative feelings towards others might just be a mirror into the things that you dislike about yourself and how you can go about changing them.   

The episode #22 - Mirror Mirror On The Wall from the podcast Emotional Talk has a duration of 2:32. It was first published 12 May 00:01. The cover art and the content belong to their respective owners.

#28 - To Judge or Not Be Judged? - That Is The Question!

To find out more, join us at www.emotionaltriggermethod.com.

You're going to get judged by others It's a fact of life and one that you have to accept.  But you know what...you’re going to judge other people too.  You can’t help it. Even at a subconscious level, you are frequently making small judgements and assumptions about people throughout the day. 

They don’t have to be mean judgements, or particularly large ones, but every single small detail of a person makes you create a picture that’s filled in with assumptions about that person’s life.  But every single judgement you make is totally inaccurate, because it’s only based on your own experiences, that are probably totally different to the person you’re judging.  

So on that idea that your judges of people are nothing more than imaginary, I want to focus on why people are so scared of being judged.  Because after all, if a person’s judgements are only based on their own ideas of the world and don’t mean anything to you, then why are you so scared of being judged by other people?  

#27 - Acceptance Is The Key To Self Improvement

Imagine you’re going to take a trip to Los Angeles and you’re planning to set off from Houston.  You get your map ready, plan your route and set off, but it turns out that you were actually in New York the whole time.  

How quickly do you think you’re going to get confused and lost?  Your self improvement journey is exactly the same!  If you don’t accept where you are now, then you are never going to be able to properly and accurately plan your road to self improvement and recovery. By not accepting how much help you need, you will most likely end up trying to rush your progress and get completely derailed.  

So today, I want to look at the journey to self improvement and why it’s so key to fully and completely accept your current situation and restrictions, so that you can have a fruitful and properly planned road to your mental recovery.  

#26 - You Can Choose To Be Happy? Screw You!

WHY DON’T YOU CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY?  

This is probably a phrase that you have heard time and time again.  I’ve been through bouts of depression and serious anxiety, but whenever I tried to talk about it with anyone, people would often ask why am I living like that. Why aren’t I choosing to be happy?  

The question is insulting. If we could choose to be happy, then why would anyone live any other way?  Why would we have depression, sadness, a worldwide mental health epidemic, if being happy was as simple as flipping a switch?  

And it’s this subject that I want to touch on today and discover how we can work out a way towards happiness, if it isn’t simply a choice to be made.  

#25 - Head Into The Storm of Your Emotions

To find out more, join us at www.emotionaltriggermethod.com.

It's natural to want to run from your problems and your fears.  

But I’m going to say something that will sound ridiculous. Something very out of the ordinary.  I think that you need to start heading into the storm of your emotions. Next time you have a terrible trauma or response, I don’t want you to avoid it and get through it.  

I want you to face it head on and truly engage in the emotions you’re feeling. Because I believe and swear by the Emotional Trigger Method, that this is the only way to begin truly healing from your emotional traumas.  

#24 - Why Postive Affirmations Don't Work

To find out more, join us at www.emotionaltriggermethod.com.

Most of us have tried those special mantras and positive affirmations to help us improve our lives.  While so many self help teachers and books will tell you that positive affirmations are a great way to improve yourself, I have some bad news.  

Behavioural research shows that they rarely ever work and the reason is simple. There are often underlying unconscious feelings and traumas that are holding you back, which no positive messaging is going to change.  

But I don’t want to be negative, so today I want to talk about positive affirmations and how you can put them aside and start discovering techniques that can actually improve your life and make your more productive and happy.
