October 04, 2024 484 Steve Wilson: Teetering on a tightrope - My bipolar journey
As an energetic normal boy of nine, Steven W. Wilson would not have guessed that the most horrifying day of his life was lurking just months ahead.
From that terrifying day when he was at the theater, to his suicidal ideations, his attempt to kill his father and his subsequent hospitalization, Teetering on a Tightrope sweeps the reader headlong into the abyss of bipolar disorder. Wilson propels the reader into his sometimes out-of-control mind, inability to perform sexually and overwhelming anger. Despite all that, Wilson gushes about the monumental times when he was in a state of normalcy and could enjoy life's golden moments, all centered around his family and friends. Teetering on a Tightrope shows that those who suffer from bipolar disorder can experience a full and productive life.

October 01, 2024 483 Craig Meriwether: Overcome Fear and Anxiety In Life & Program Yourself For Confidence
Craig Meriwether is a mindset coach and clinical hypnotherapist helping people eliminate negative emotions and trauma so they can reach their full potential.
Craig is a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, Medical Hypnosis Specialist, Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) specialist, and Founder of Arizona Integrative Hypnotherapy helping people eliminate the negative emotions and limiting beliefs that may be keeping them from reaching their full potential.
For over 12 years, Craig has been helping people heal from early childhood trauma, helping cancer patients with pain control, veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder, students with test anxiety, entrepreneurs with confidence, athletes with peak performance, and anyone who may be dealing with overwhelm, fear and anxiety.
Craig has created Ace Any Test, the most comprehensive course for test anxiety relief so people can eliminate anxiety around exams, auditions, job interviews and public speaking, as well as increase confidence and self-esteem.
3 Top Tips
1.) What is strongest in your mind is what you do over and over again. If you practice the piano, or martial arts, or a foreign language you'll get better and better every day. Same if you're practicing anxiety, fear and anger. So what if you started practicing something else, confidence, happiness, peace?
2.) It doesn't take months and years to change your mindset. Research shows you can start rewiring your brain in less than a week.
3.) Just by sitting in a comfortable place, closing your eyes, and pretending you are the person you want to become you can literally rewire your brain. Olympic athletes do this every day.

September 27, 2024 482 Nicole Poulton: How to get sober in 5 simple steps
Nicole Poulton is an addiction and recovery coach, transformational speaker, entrepreneur and an inspiring survivor of sexual abuse. With over 12 years in the addiction and recovery field, Nicole has impacted over a million lives with her message.
Currently, Nicole serves as a coach and mentor guiding individuals, teams and families through the trials of addiction and sobriety, with a focus on healing and behavior education. Nicole’s mission is to empower others to step into their full potential so they can create a life they truly love. Her approach shows that 5 simple steps can be the breakthrough you need to beat addiction.
3 Top Tips
1. The addiction is always a solution to a deeper problem. If you address the root, it's much easier to stop the addiction.
2. Understand the 6 human needs. We call have the same 6 human needs and your addiction is meeting at least one (or more). Identifying which needs it meets helps to make the changes necessary to prevent relapse.
3. Leverage. Instead of waiting on the universe to give you leverage (overdose, loss of job, family troubles) there is a way to facilitate leverage by utilizing the concept of pain and pleasure.

Dana Karen (“DK”) Ciccone is a certified Pilates instructor who helps people in pain improve strength, mobility, and well-being in a weight-neutral environment. She’s also trained in pain reprocessing therapy through the Pain Psychology Center.

Her first book, You’re Meant to Move: A Guide to Conquering Chronic Pain, Increasing Stress Resilience, and Reclaiming an Active Life, was released December 2023.
DK Ciccone's approach proves that hurting does not equal broken.
Tips to get moving when you don't feel like it:
1) Remember your "why" and make sure it is authentic
2) Move your body in all directions for just a few minutes each day, in ways that feel good

September 13, 2024 478 Helen Sernett: Feeling Lost and Finding the Way Again - A Guide To Healing With Sleep
Helen Sernett, founder, and host of the Sleep Lists podcast, was a non-profit fundraiser at the end of her rope struggling with a long list of medical issues.
Underlying all of it was the fact that she could no longer get herself to sleep. With Sleep Lists she serves up bedtime dreams every episode by reciting a lulling list of similar items.
Lately, she’s more well rested and less on edge. She records voice over work and speaks at events about her experience with resilience and the power of neuroplasticity.
Helen enjoys family time, cooking from scratch, and cosying up with a good book or movie.
In Helen's words:
I felt like I was going crazy. I felt frazzled, stressed, and burnt out as a non-profit fundraiser. At the same time, I felt an enormous sense of apathy. It snuffed out not just my desire to work but all my passions. I was the proverbial ship lost at sea. I made it back to shore when I took control of my sleep.
Regaining control of my sleep schedule and getting good rest improved both my mental and physical health. Sleep was the lynchpin in a host of medical issues I had been navigating (and some I still am figuring out). If you have never given thought to your sleep you are a very fortunate person. Those of us who have lost our way and face insomnia are adrift—lonely, scared, and in need of help, tools, and time to heal. I provide insights into what it's like and how I found my way back to shore.
Now that I’ve found my way, I help others do the same. And if you’re one of the lucky ones, I want to make sure you never get lost in the first place. Women, middle aged people, non-profit workers, parents, caregivers, anyone with chronic illness, anyone who has ever felt burnt out in their career, and people who have big hearts tend to resonate with me and my story.
I embodied the expression of, "Work hard and sleep when you're dead." Now I fight against that culture of constant movement because I know the damage it does. If you want the secret to navigating change, being an adaptable person, finding a good mood, and gaining better health, it's simple (but that doesn't mean it's always easy): sleep. I talk about how I help myself and others get it and why it's so critical for brain, body, and spirit.
3 Top Tips
Treat sleep like your life depends on it, because it does.
If getting to sleep is tough, I have a tool that works really well.
Do your best to maintain a regular sleep schedule to help your body and mind.
