The Mindset Game® Podcast

In his quest to help clients overcome trauma and enhance performance in their personal and professional lives, psychotherapist Dr. David Grand developed a revolutionary technique known as Brainspotting™. Based on the concept that "where you look affects how you feel," Brainspotting is a neuroexperiential process that uses relevant eye positions to access the deeper, intuitive brain.

Now used by thousands of practitioners worldwide, Brainspotting has earned acclaim for its ability to help heal trauma, enhance performance and creativity, and bring about life-changing breakthroughs. In Episode 87 of The MINDSet Game® podcast, Dr. Grand discusses this powerful technique in depth as he explains:

• The neuroscience behind Brainspotting, and how it incorporates aspects of both relational and technical therapy in order to bypass human thinking and access the intuitions of the primal brain
• Why clearing out the mental blocks created by limiting beliefs and ensuring that the nervous system feels safe are essential for optimizing performance
• How Brainspotting can be particularly beneficial for business leaders who need to adapt to change and gain clarity when making pivotal decisions

In addition to his work with psychotherapy clients – including professional athletes, entertainers, business leaders, and survivors of profound trauma – Dr. Grand is a lecturer, performance coach, humanitarian, and the author of Brainspotting: The Revolutionary New Therapy for Rapid and Effective Change.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, most people develop baseline thought patterns over time that shape how they feel emotionally and how they respond to life events. While it may seem that these thought patterns are produced exclusively by the brain, the heart also plays a major role – and in order to change thought patterns that are no longer serving you, it's essential to shift the rhythms of the heart.

As the Director of Research of the HeartMath Research Center at the HeartMath® Institute, Dr. Rollin McCraty has extensively studied the connection between the heart and the mind, as well as the physiology of emotion and how emotions influence cognitive processes, behavior, and health. In Episode 85 of The MINDSet Game® podcast, Dr. McCraty discusses some of his findings as he shares:

• How the brain's amygdala functions, and the role that the heart plays in processing thoughts and emotions
• How your heart's energy can affect those around you, and why heart-centered change is the key to improving dynamics in families, organizations, and other groups
• Simple tools for shifting your physiology into a calm, coherent state and gradually replacing maladaptive thought patterns with ones that will serve you more effectively
• The benefits that these heart-centered practices can have for you, your relationships, and the world at large

Dr. McCraty's research interests include the physiology of emotion, heart-brain communication and the global interconnectivity between people and the earth's energetic systems. Findings from this research have been applied to developing tools and technology to optimize individual and organizational health, performance, and quality of life. Dr. McCraty has acted as Principal Investigator in numerous studies examining the effects of emotions on heart-brain interactions and on autonomic, cardiovascular, hormonal, and immune system function, and outcome studies to determine the benefits of positive emotion-focused interventions and heart rhythm coherence feedback in diverse organizational, educational and various clinical populations. He has been featured in several documentary films such as I Am, The Truth, The Joy of Sox Movie, The Power of the Heart, Solar Revolution, The Living Matrix, and many others.

As humans, we are capable of experiencing a vast range of emotions, from anger to shame, grief to joy. However, when we encounter intense or difficult emotions, we often try to bury or avoid truly feeling them. Over time, this can create emotional baggage or "trapped emotions" — which can lead to mental and physical pain, self-sabotage, and a variety of health challenges.

In Episode 83 of The MINDSet Game® podcast, Dr. Bradley Nelson discusses some of the key principles found in his best-selling book, The Emotion Code. As a holistic physician and one of the world's foremost experts on natural methods for achieving wellness, Dr. Nelson has trained thousands of practitioners worldwide to help people overcome physical and emotional discomfort by releasing their emotional baggage. In this episode, he shares:

• How the power of prayer and connection to a higher power helped him recover from serious health problems as a child – experiences that eventually led him to pursue a career in the healing arts
• How the Emotion Code® works, and why trapped emotions are so dangerous to mental and physical wellbeing
• The concept of "heart walls" – an extremely common phenomenon that can create an impediment to giving and receiving love in your life – and how they may be overcome through the Emotion Code
• A simple test you can do on your own that will help you tap into your subconscious mind in order to identify trapped emotions that need to be released

However, as modern scientists have shifted their focus to quantum physics, they have begun to understand that in reality, we are all connected as part of a quantum energy field.

In Episode 82 of The MINDSet Game® podcast, Lynne McTaggart—one of the key authorities on the New Science and consciousness—offers an overview of the research exploring our inherent human connection and why it means that we each have immeasurable powers to heal ourselves, each other, and the world.

In addition to The Power of Eight®, Lynne's publications include The Field, The Intention Experiment, and The Bond.
