Your Badass Brain

Are you afraid of being judged by other people?  Does this fear keep you playing small or hiding certain parts of yourself from the world?  In this episode, learn why your base brain mistakenly places so much importance on other people's opinions, and why it is never actually their negative judgement that is the problem.  Discover the key to truly not being phased by what anybody else thinks of you.  

One of the things that our human brains like more than anything is to be right.   If you are alive today, it is because your brain has been producing effective thoughts and therefore, it believes that all of those thoughts must be right.  Being wrong about anything, to your base brain, would introduce an element of uncertainty, which it views as a threat.  But, sometimes, the very best thing you can do for yourself is to use Your Badass Brain to DECIDE that you are wrong about something.  In this episode, you will hear how the Willingness to Be Wrong is often the key to creating the life experience that you want to have.  

Many of us are uncomfortable with negative emotion.   Unfortunately, there is no way to completely eliminate negative emotion from our lives.  However, we can decide how we want to think about it.  Listen to this episode to learn how your thoughts about your feelings determine whether you are creating unnecessary suffering and how you can feel more at peace.  

Humans are a social species and we crave connection. Relationships with other people are some of the most amazing and fulfilling experiences we have. They can also be a source of misery when another person is not showing up how we want them to.  We become angry, irritated, frustrated, and resentful, and we want them to be different so that we can feel better.  Join me on this episode of Your Badass Brain to learn how YOU can single-handedly transform ANY relationship in your life and feel the way that you want to feel without anybody else needing to change.  

Do you know that feeling good is a skill that you can actually practice and develop?  What better goal is there than learning how to create more happiness in your life and to sustain that happiness for longer periods of time? You can learn to feel better and to reduce the amount of unnecessary negative emotion that you experience, by using nothing but your brain. Tune into this episode to start your practice of becoming happier. 

When we set goals for ourselves or decide to make changes in our lives, we usually start out feeling very motivated and excited.  Unfortunately, this can quickly fade when things aren't as easy as expected or don't go exactly as planned.  We can become critical and judgmental of ourselves over the lack of progress that we are making.  We start to put immense amounts of pressure on ourselves, often with the mistaken belief that we are doing it to motivate ourselves.  In this episode, learn how this type of self-management style is counter-productive and that there IS an alternative to accomplishing your goals without high and constant levels of stress and anxiety. 

Our base brains want us to believe that we are missing out on something.  They want us to believe that if we just had that one thing in our life that were different, then we would be truly happy and our lives would be better.   But, when we buy into this, we actually prevent rather than create that happiness.  What if you believed that you already have everything that you need to be truly happy and at peace?  Who would you become if you knew for certain that the only thing that needs to change is your brain and that you CAN make that change?   Join Apryle in this episode to explore these questions and more.  

We made it to 2021 and now is a great time to decide what changes we want to make throughout this new year.  We often approach this by setting new years resolutions.  We decide what we are going to DO or or stop DOING.  Our resolutions are action based and unfortunately, less than 10% of people succeed in accomplishing the resolutions they set.   In this episode, we explore why this is the case and how you can approach things differently in 2021, in order to make true and lasting change in your life.  

What do you believe - about the world, about yourself, about your future?  When and how did you form those beliefs and how do they impact the life experience that you are having?  In this episode, we are going to explore some simple brain science to understand how many of our beliefs are formed without our conscious input and how continuing to hold those beliefs may be holding us back.  We are going to talk about the process of reprogramming the brain to Believe New Things and how this can up-level ANY area of your life.  

We spend much of our lives on a quest for happiness, but when this constant quest for happiness causes us to react and resist our negative emotions, it often leads to stress, misery and self-sabotage.  In this episode, learn how accepting that life is meant to be 50/50 can actually bring you more peace and allow you to use your negative emotion to learn more about your brain's default programming so that you can strategically begin to create the thoughts and emotions that will lead to more productive actions and ultimately to your desired results.
