265 Living Above the Fray: The 7 Pillars of Mental Health, Pt. 2: The Commitment to Understand the Nature of Mind

In 1980, Ozzy Osbourne sang about "…going off the rails on a crazy train." We all know what he was talking about, don't we? Certainly, the world around us often feels crazy, but sometimes we struggle with mental health issues, too.   In this important 7-part series, Roy Biancalana, our host, talks about "The 7 Pillars of Mental Health," and how they can allow us to "live above the fray," and stay off the "crazy train."   In part two of the series, we begin to unpack Michael Singer's perplexing statement: "All problems are caused by mind – no exceptions." Since the mind is our only real enemy, then if we want to be mentally healthy, we must commit ourselves to understanding the nature of mind.   In this episode, you'll learn: ·      That the mind is the root of suffering; ·      That emotions are not isolated experiences, but the result of thinking; ·      5 insights about the mind that lead to mental health; ·      And much, much more!   Additional Resources Roy may have mentioned on the show:   Roy's Website: https://coachingwithroy.com   Roy's Relationship Fitness Self-Assessment Test: https://coachingwithroy.com/the-relationship-fitness-self-test/   Roy's 4 Books: ·      Quantum Questions: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4RFZBS3/ ·      Relationship Bootcamp: https://amzn.to/360UsMR ·      Attracting Lasting Love: http://amzn.to/1UnYeYh ·      A Drink with Legs: https://amzn.to/31UBl3K     Roy's Group Coaching Program: https://coachingwithroy.com/group-coaching/   Roy's Complimentary 45-min.

We're challenged to reject conventional wisdom which leads to "crazy town," and instead, adopt conscious wisdom that leads to inner peace and well-being.   In this episode, you'll learn: ·      Why crazy is the new normal; ·      The necessity of questioning conventional and cultural "wisdom"; ·      A quick-guide comparison of conventional vs conscious wisdom ·      How conscious wisdom leads to mental health ·      And much, much more!   Additional Resources Roy may have mentioned on the show:   Roy's Website: https://coachingwithroy.com   Roy's Relationship Fitness Self-Assessment Test: https://coachingwithroy.com/the-relationship-fitness-self-test/   Roy's 4 Books: ·      Quantum Questions: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4RFZBS3/ ·      Relationship Bootcamp: https://amzn.to/360UsMR ·      Attracting Lasting Love: http://amzn.to/1UnYeYh ·      A Drink with Legs: https://amzn.to/31UBl3K     Roy's Group Coaching Program: https://coachingwithroy.com/group-coaching/   Roy's Complimentary 45-min.

The amount of information on how to find a life partner is staggering. There are videos, podcasts, blogs, books—who doesn't have a theory? While some of the information is good, the sheer volume makes it overwhelming. How in the world are we to make sense of it?   Well, in an effort to sift through all the noise, Roy Biancalana, our host, has boiled down our pursuit of intimacy to 5 essential ideas, and they are the focus of this 5-part series.   In final installment of the series, we face an important question: What is the healthiest reason to seek a relationship in the first place? And the answer is "synergy."   Synergy means, "the whole is greater than the sum of its parts." We should seek, therefore, to be with a partner that makes us better than we would otherwise be alone, a partner who's mere presence makes us more likely to fulfill our potential and express deepest gifts.   When you find that person, scoop them up! And hint: BE that person, and you'll be scooped up, too.

The options are simple: We can either claim responsibility for our experience, or we can be blame others for what's occurring.   This podcast describes why you should be looking for in a life partner that claims responsibility rather than blaming others for the problems they're facing.   Additional Resources Roy may have mentioned on the show:   Roy's Website: https://coachingwithroy.com   Roy's Relationship Fitness Self-Assessment Test: https://coachingwithroy.com/the-relationship-fitness-self-test/   Roy's 4 Books: ·      Quantum Questions: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4RFZBS3/ ·      Relationship Bootcamp: https://amzn.to/360UsMR ·      Attracting Lasting Love: http://amzn.to/1UnYeYh ·      A Drink with Legs: https://amzn.to/31UBl3K     Roy's Group Coaching Program: https://coachingwithroy.com/group-coaching/   Roy's Complimentary 45-min.

We shouldn't be focused on falling in love, but "falling in like." And that's because love is a very mysterious feeling. It's often the result of chemicals in the body or a psychological response to unmet childhood needs. But finding some you genuinely like, someone you deeply enjoy, is a far better way to evaluate a relationship.   Additional Resources Roy may have mentioned on the show:   Roy's Website: https://coachingwithroy.com   Roy's Relationship Fitness Self-Assessment Test: https://coachingwithroy.com/the-relationship-fitness-self-test/   Roy's 4 Books: ·      Quantum Questions: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4RFZBS3/ ·      Relationship Bootcamp: https://amzn.to/360UsMR ·      Attracting Lasting Love: http://amzn.to/1UnYeYh ·      A Drink with Legs: https://amzn.to/31UBl3K     Roy's Group Coaching Program: https://coachingwithroy.com/group-coaching/   Roy's Complimentary 45-min.

We're called to look for the barriers within ourselves, because that is far more important than focusing on who we'd like to meet and how we might meet them.   Additional Resources Roy may have mentioned on the show:   Roy's Website: https://coachingwithroy.com   Roy's Relationship Fitness Self-Assessment Test: https://coachingwithroy.com/the-relationship-fitness-self-test/   Roy's 4 Books: ·      Quantum Questions: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4RFZBS3/ ·      Relationship Bootcamp: https://amzn.to/360UsMR ·      Attracting Lasting Love: http://amzn.to/1UnYeYh ·      A Drink with Legs: https://amzn.to/31UBl3K     Roy's Group Coaching Program: https://coachingwithroy.com/group-coaching/   Roy's Complimentary 45-min.

Too many of us think that having great chemistry means we're right for each other, and nothing could be further from the truth.   This podcast describes what you should be looking for in a life partner—and it's not sexual in nature.   Additional Resources Roy may have mentioned on the show:   Roy's Website: https://coachingwithroy.com   Roy's Relationship Fitness Self-Assessment Test: https://coachingwithroy.com/the-relationship-fitness-self-test/   Roy's 4 Books: ·      Quantum Questions: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4RFZBS3/ ·      Relationship Bootcamp: https://amzn.to/360UsMR ·      Attracting Lasting Love: http://amzn.to/1UnYeYh ·      A Drink with Legs: https://amzn.to/31UBl3K     Roy's Group Coaching Program: https://coachingwithroy.com/group-coaching/   Roy's Complimentary 45-min.
