Did you know that bad foods trigger bad moods, and that bad moods trigger the urge to eat bad foods? The MIND BODY connection is strong. When we eat right, it effects our psychology positively, and when we eat food that creates mood swings we are the CAUSE of unbalancing our inner world. Today we talked about HOW TO eat so that we can avoid the foods that trigger bad moods, and HOW TO identify the HOLE IN THE SOUL that triggers emotional emptiness that leads to filling the hole with bad foods. Dr. Judy's MIND MAP traces the HOLE IN THE SOUL to the bad defense mechanisms that break down our MIND and BODY. Today we SHRINK THE TUNE, "Ice Cream" by Sarah McLachlan

Suicide is the end game of aggression turned inward. When we are not able to say how we feel, when we REPRESS for too long, the anger gets stored within us and ends up detonating us. The most important suicide prevention is Unconditional Love and SUPPORT. Those who are old, lonely and have no support system are at higher risk. Suicide hotlines are lifesavers to those who need to reach out for help. If you or a loved one, needs help, call for help. If you can't access the number quickly, just dial 911 and help will be on the way. A very dangerous expression of the HOLE IN THE SOUL, Dr. Judy MIND MAP'S how the wound from childhood can set one up for hopelessness resulting in suicide.

There is a "bad game" in town and it's called the "knock out game." Random acts of violence are CAUSED by aggression that is projected onto others; aggression that does not belong inside the aggressor, nor to the victim. This dangerous and deadly game is another example of AGGRESSION misdirected. When we REPRESS and don' EXPRESS in a healthy manner, we end up with AGGRESS. This "game" is the end game of the original wound of childhood gone misdirected at strangers, and another example of the HOLE IN THE SOUL. The solution: Healthy parenting and healthy expression of angry feelings so that they don't turn deadly. Dr. Judy's MIND MAP takes you FROM the wound of early childhood, TO the end game of CLASH of the ISMS in the form of the "knockout game." Today we SHRUNK THE TUNE: Break Stuff my Limp Bizkit

Today's episode continues on the theme of plastic surgery gone wrong. Men, teens and even seniors are going under the knife. Although the procedure is called "plastic" surgery, we need to know that we are made of flesh and blood and sometimes the healing process doesn't quite go as planned. Many are dissatisfied, disfigured, or even die in the process of trying to become one of the "beautiful people." Studies show that although changes to the outside may be made, the inside image sometimes stays the same, and many who have undergone procedures feel that they look the same. The attempt to "fix" our inner issues with the scalpel fails because the hole in the soul, or the wounds of childhood can only be fixed by going inward and expressing the suppressed pain that oftentimes result in depression, or anger turned inward. Beauty is not enough of a defense mechanism to heal the ugliness of our dysfunctional core beliefs. Today, Walt and Dr. Judy shrunk the tune Wrecking Ball, by Miley Cyrus to illustrate how we cause chaos in our lives, including acting out our emotional pain against ourselves and destroying ourselves and others around us.
