This is key to living a life of mind management and learning how to deal with the many ups and downs of life. However, it is possible to be too self-aware. This happens when we start trying to intellectualize away our feelings and emotions rather than learning from them. <strong>We have to feel so we can heal</strong>—trying to rationalize away how we experience life can be as harmful as suppressing or ignoring uncomfortable emotions. </p><p><br></p><p>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-myth-of-normal-with-dr-gabor-mate">⁠</a><a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/can-we-be-too-self-aware">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/can-we-be-too-self-aware</a></p><p><br></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-<strong>Elo Health Smart Protein: Take out the guesswork and get the right amount of protein after every workout.

Dr. Maté is highly sought after for his expertise on a range of topics including addiction, stress and childhood development. Rather than offering quick-fix solutions to these complex issues, Dr. Maté weaves together scientific research, case histories, and his own insights and experience to present a broad perspective that enlightens and empowers people to promote their own healing and that of those around them. </p><p><br></p><p>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-myth-of-normal-with-dr-gabor-mate">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-myth-of-normal-with-dr-gabor-mate</a></p><p><br></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-BiOptimizers <strong>Sleep Breakthrough: If you&#39;re struggling with sleep, I highly recommend giving Sleep Breakthrough a try.

As Susan notes in her book, bittersweetness is a tendency to states of longing, poignancy, and sorrow; an acute awareness of passing time; and a curiously piercing joy at the beauty of the world. It recognizes that light and dark, birth and death—bitter and sweet—are forever paired. </p><p><br>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-sex-can-improve-your-mind">⁠⁠⁠</a><a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/love-sex-your-mental-health">⁠</a><a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-beauty-benefits-of-bittersweet-moments">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-beauty-benefits-of-bittersweet-moments</a></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-Chime: tart making your financial dreams a reality with Chime.

This is part 2 of my series on love, sex, relationships and wellbeing. As mentioned in <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-sex-can-improve-your-mind">part 1</a>, safe, consensual sex in a loving relationship can help improve our health and wellbeing and even increase our longevity. But this is not just about sex. How well we interact with and relate to our partner will lay the foundation for a fulfilling and intimate relationship. Of course, this is easier said than done—as I am sure you know, relationships can be complicated! This is why I recommend creating rituals and routines in a relationship to improve sexual intimacy and overall health. </p><p><br></p><p>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-sex-can-improve-your-mind">⁠</a><a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/love-sex-your-mental-health">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/love-sex-your-mental-health</a></p><p><br></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-<strong>BetterHelp: So, if you’re thinking of starting therapy, give BetterHelp a try!

This is part 1 of a 3-part series. High-quality intimate relationships are good for our health—we all know this! But did you know that sexual intimacy is also good for us? I recently interviewed <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-best-stress-fitness-routine-to-help-you-better-metabolize-stress-promote-healthier-emotional-responses">Dr. Elissa Epel</a> about her work with telomeres and stress, and she mentioned that one of her most interesting and popular studies, published in 2017, was on a correlation she and her team found between <a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0306453016310034">longevity and safe and consensual sex</a>. In this study, Dr. Epel and her team observed that couples that are more sexually intimate have longer telomeres, which contribute to our cellular health and longevity. </p><p><br></p><p>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-sex-can-improve-your-mind">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-sex-can-improve-your-mind</a></p><p><br></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-<strong>NED’s Shuteye Chai: Discover how Shuteye Chai can revolutionize your sleep and get 15% off with code DRLEAF.

<p>Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app</p><p><br></p><p>SHOW DESCRIPTION: In today’s podcast I talk about dealing with draining people while protecting your mental health. Relationships are great and have many benefits, but they can also be challenging, especially when you have to deal with someone who is a drain on your mental energy and resources. Indeed, sometimes the most draining people can be family, friends, co-workers, and even children! It&#39;s okay to admit to yourself that you feel drained around someone. You don&#39;t have to add guilt to the mental and emotional strain you are already feeling, as this will only make you feel worse. But, once you recognize and honor your feelings, you also need to take steps to help manage the situation so that you can protect your mental health and relationships. We need to acknowledge how we feel to manage how we feel.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-recognize-deal-with-draining-people">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-recognize-deal-with-draining-people</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-Elo Health:  It’s time to start taking supplements that are tailored to YOU.

Named one of the top 50 functional and integrative doctors in the nation, Dr. Will specializes in clinically investigating underlying factors of chronic disease and customizing a functional medicine approach for thyroid issues, autoimmune conditions, hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, and brain problems. He is also the host of the popular The Art of Being Well podcast and bestselling author of Ketotarian, The Inflammation Spectrum, and the New York Times bestseller Intuitive Fasting. Dr. Will’s new book, <a href="https://drwillcole.com/gut-feelings">Gut Feelings</a>, continues his amazing work by exploring the relationship between our gut health, physical health and mental health, and what we can do to improve not only the health of our gut but also our lives. As he notes, this book is all about healing the shame-fueled relationship between what we eat and how we feel. </p><p><br></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-forgiveness-changes-your-brain">⁠</a><a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/are-you-suffering-from-shameflammation">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/are-you-suffering-from-shameflammation</a></p><p><br></p><p>Get Dr. Cole&#39;s new book here: <a href="https://drwillcole.com/gut-feelings">https://drwillcole.com/gut-feelings</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-<strong>Air Doctor: </strong>Head to <a href="http://airdoctorpro.com/">airdoctorpro.com</a> and use promo code DRLEAF and, depending on the model, you’ll receive UP TO 40% off. </p><p>-<strong>BetterHelp: </strong>Get 10% off their first month at <a href="http://betterhelp.com/drleaf">betterhelp.com/drleaf</a>.  </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><strong>EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:</strong></p><p>2:00 Why our gut health is so important </p><p>3:00 Mental health is physical health</p><p>4:30 How the gut &amp; brain are connected  </p><p>7:02, 13:07 The science behind the gut-brain connection</p><p>16:55 Shameflammation: what is it &amp; how it affects us </p><p>21:45, 47:15 Shame &amp; the wellness industry </p><p>26:00 Why we need healthy self-boundaries </p><p>32:00, 43:56 Practical tips to improve the gut-brain connection </p><p><br></p><p>ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:</p><p>-Get my new book Cleaning up Your Mental Mess here: https://www.cleaningupyourmentalmess.com</p><p>-Get a free Cleaning up Your Mental Mess workbook when you subscribe to my weekly email at drleaf.com!</p><p>- Visit my website at https://drleaf.com for more free resources</p><p>-Instagram: @drcarolineleaf: https://www.instagram.com/drcarolineleaf/-</p><p>-Facebook: Dr. Caroline Leaf: https://www.facebook.com/drleaf</p><p>-Twitter: @drcarolineleaf: https://twitter.com/DrCarolineLeaf</p><p>-Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p>*DISCLAIMER: This podcast and blog are for educational purposes only and are not intended as medical advice.

<p>Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app</p><p><br></p><p>SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about forgiveness and the mind. Forgiveness is more than just a word or action. It is something that that affects us mentally, emotionally and spiritually. It helps us heal n ways we are only just beginning to understand. This is due to the law of entanglement in quantum physics, which keeps everything in a relationship—toxic or otherwise—entangled, affecting each component. Forgiveness helps us sever the toxic hold someone who hurt us has over us. It helps us disconnect from the source of our pain and find true healing.</p><p><br></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-forgiveness-changes-your-brain">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-forgiveness-changes-your-brain</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p><strong>Chime: </strong>Get started at chime.com/drleaf.</p><p><strong>Qualia Mind: </strong>Go to <a href="http://neurohacker.com/DRLEAF">neurohacker.com/DRLEAF</a> for $100 OFF, that’s only $39 a bottle and as a listener of Cleaning Up the Mental Mess use code DRLEAF at checkout for an extra 15% off your first purchase. </p><p><br></p><p><strong>EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:</strong></p><p>2:11 Why forgiveness is so important </p><p>3:10, 8:05 Forgiveness &amp; the law of entanglement </p><p>9:11 How forgiveness helps us heal</p><p>13:02, 17:20 How to forgive using mind management</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:</p><p>-Get my new book Cleaning up Your Mental Mess here: https://www.cleaningupyourmentalmess.com</p><p>-Get a free Cleaning up Your Mental Mess workbook when you subscribe to my weekly email at drleaf.com!</p><p>- Visit my website at https://drleaf.com for more free resources</p><p>-Instagram: @drcarolineleaf: https://www.instagram.com/drcarolineleaf/-</p><p>-Facebook: Dr. Caroline Leaf: https://www.facebook.com/drleaf</p><p>-Twitter: @drcarolineleaf: https://twitter.com/DrCarolineLeaf</p><p>-Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p><br></p><p>*DISCLAIMER: This podcast and blog are for educational purposes only and are not intended as medical advice.

In Vienna’s incredible new book, <a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/709274/the-origins-of-you-by-vienna-pharaon-lfmt/"><em>The Origins of You: How Breaking Family Patterns Can Liberate The Way We Live And Love</em></a><em>, </em>she talks about how, <em>“</em>armed with the knowledge about our past, we can actually rewire our programming to meaningfully improve our relationships and our lives, right now and in the future”. As Vienna points out, “it doesn’t matter whether you’ve been in therapy for decades, or whether therapy isn’t for you. It doesn’t matter if you have loads of memories from childhood, or struggle to remember anything at all. What matters is your willingness to look inside yourself, and your determination to find a new way forward”.</p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p><p>Read the blog here:&nbsp;https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-break-dysfunctional-family-patterns-and-heal-generational-trauma</p><p>Get Vienna's book here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/709274/the-origins-of-you-by-vienna-pharaon-lfmt/</p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-<strong>NED’s Shuteye Chai: Discover how Shuteye Chai can revolutionize your sleep and get 15% off with code DRLEAF.
