What Are You Mirroring? The Neuroscience Of Emotional Bonding  |  'ask dorothy' The WISDOM podcast  Season 5  Episode 140 ~    In this Episode:   We'll look at the mechanism and function of mirror neurons; how they came to be discovered ~ and what we know from indirect evidence through fMSI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) in humans. All to which sheds light on why we learn through observing the behavior of others ~ and why being in the presence of difficult, angry, unkind and toxic people, whether we are watching them in the media or they are in front of us, has such an negative, diminishing and at times an aggressive influence on how we feel and act. ~    I also want to share how... Understanding and using mirroring behavior is actually a skill that you can develop ~ that will enable you to create rapport and connection with others. Helpful in business and in your relationships, mirroring behavior is a life skill.  As you mindfully live confident, calm, and self-empowered, you mirror this widely positive behavior with all others ~ and it becomes a tool of healing conflict and unresolved hurts of the past. Let me show you.   ~ Namaste 💗   🌸BLOOM🌸 A 30 Day Personal Renewal Journey Built Around Your 'NEW' ~ Watch the VIdeo here ~   Subscribe to My weekly WISDOM Notes here📝 ~    Download The Juno app here   ~ Book a Discovery Session here Let's work together!  Book a Therapy session here...     Work with Me + Transformational Coaching      JUNO 💜 Love-Heal-Transform Meditation ~ Mental Health ~ Spirituality ~ Self-Love *As a special 'podcast listener' use this link for $5 off your first month of JUNO Premium!    Promo Code:  WISDOMPODCAST   Each month inside The JUNO app we post curated inspirational messages, wisdom and love.

Do You Have Unrelenting Standards? 'ask dorothy' The WISDOM podcast  Season 5  Episode 137 ~  Unrelenting standards are an early maladaptive schema—a deeply ingrained belief system—characterized by the relentless pursuit of excessively high, perfectionistic standards to avoid criticism. This often results in chronic stress, burnout, and hypercriticalness toward oneself and others, prioritizing performance over pleasure, health, and relationships.   In this Episode: We'll discuss the key characteristics and behaviors associated with having unrelenting standards. You'll understand the orgins and impact of this maladaptive schema on your life. I'll share helpful, concrete tools for getting starting ~ in reprogramming yourself with kindness, self-compassion and through a lens of evidence-based CBT strategies for rewriting your core schema. ~  Are you interested in learning if you hold maladaptive schemas? The Maladaptive Schema Scale (MSS) is a 108-item tool that assesses maladaptive patterns of thoughts, behaviours and emotions.  Complete an online self-assessment here. If you would like me to send you the assessment tool that I use with clients (and I would be happy to score it for you), please reach out to me: [email protected] ~ Namaste 💗   🌸BLOOM🌸 A 30 Day Personal Renewal Journey Built Around Your 'NEW' ~ Watch the VIdeo here ~   Subscribe to My weekly WISDOM Notes here📝 ~    Download The Juno app here   ~ Book a Discovery Session here Let's work together!  Book a Therapy session here...     Work with Me + Transformational Coaching      JUNO 💜 Love-Heal-Transform Meditation ~ Mental Health ~ Spirituality ~ Self-Love *As a special 'podcast listener' use this link for $5 off your first month of JUNO Premium!    Promo Code:  WISDOMPODCAST   Each month inside The JUNO app we post curated inspirational messages, wisdom and love.

It's Called Manipulation 'ask dorothy' The WISDOM podcast  Season 5  Episode 131 ~  Manipulation in a couple relationship is the tendency for one person to take advantage of the love, commitment and loyalty of their partner. To manipulate is to influence or control a person, a situation, or an outcome in a subtle or obvious way ~ that serves one's advantage.   There will be occasions where the manipulation is innocent. It is not intended to harm and control. Yet if manipulative behavior is not named and addressed, if the other person is left to think that their words and actions are justified and reasonable, the behaviour can persist ~ the tactics more pressing, obvious, and debilitating. ~ Here I share 16 signs of manipulation in a relationship, the five most common tactics used and how emotional manipulation and its kinder, pro social counterpart ~ 'managing behavior' are both measurable constructs in psychological science.   If you would like my help in navigating the perils of being in a relationship where your partner is manipulative, please reach out to me ~ let me help.   ~ Namaste 💗   ----more----   Authentic Rhythm A 28 Day Experience ~ Watch the VIdeo here ~ 🤗💗 We are hosting this 28 Day Journey inside the Juno app: Everything you need in one digital space ~ here    This is not a grind.
