Is your joy elevator stuck? 

Do you ever find yourself rummaging in the kitchen for something, but you don't know what?

Has someone ever given you good advice, but the emotional weight you are feeling won't go away? 

These are just two mild indicators that your joy elevator might be stuck in some pain that needs to be processed.  

In order for suffering to keep from becoming traumatic, our brains need to process the pain at all five levels of the pain processing pathway: 

1. attachment 
2. assessment 
3. attunement 
4. action
5. narrative

When the joy elevator in our brain gets stuck and our pain isn't able to process through its needed path, it is helpful to recognize at which floor of the brain the elevator jammed.  

In this series, we unpack the joy elevator and the pain processing pathway. 

This compilation episode covers Season 1, Episodes 53-56. 

P.S. The "pain processing pathway" is a concept you can learn more about in Dr. Karl Lehman's book Outsmarting Yourself.
