Doc's Corner Chat

Our body processes experiences based on previous experiences.  Can we change that type of response?  Do we have the power to modify our thought process to achieve a different outcome?  Does what we do influence our thoughts or do our thoughts influence us?  Today was a great day... I've waited my whole life for a day like today.  I never thought I would ever have a day where there were calming "breaks" from my fear & panic.  Today, for 1/4 of the day, I felt free from the ties that bind me (trauma, fear, panic, agoraphobia, OCD).  Tune in to understand how we have the ability to allow ourselves to simply, "Just be."

Thank you for tuning in.  Some heavy topics on the horizon, but with a twist!  Stay tuned!

Every positive action will yield some sort of result one action at a time. Let us begin to build in a healthy, kind, unbiased, and informative approach.

Request to share Behind the Blue episode from Season 1.  This episode examines the social perception of police officers and the use of excessive force.  For more specific information on stressors police officers face, which impacts decision making, thus leading to questionable tactics read my new book, Behind the Blue.  The study examines stress, life satisfaction and counseling utilization within the police culture.  I back the blue, but I do not back abuse of power or excessive force!

Request from a listener to repost/upload this interesting episode from April 2021 on effective ways to tactfully say no from Season 1.  I hope this offers insight and effective strategies for gaining confidence in saying, "No."
