| 10/24/26 | Episode 218: Knowing You're OK When You're Not OK | We all experience what we call jolts in our reality. Life is rolling along and then something happens that we didn't want, weren't expecting, can't change, must face... Accidents. Illness. Death of loved ones. Weather disasters. The list goes on. The Principles explain why our experience of whatever happens is dependent on our thoughts about it and our recognition that when our thinking is moving more into the negative, we can go to quiet. There... | 37m 21s | ||||||
| 9/12/26 | Episode 217: Awakening Our Power To Change | What matters when we talk of the 3 Principles is not the words but the depth of feeling behind the words. Our work is the outreach of one person's heart and soul to another's, a call to their wisdom, not a subject to learn. We are not our thoughts; our thoughts are a reflection of the level of understanding from which we are creating them. So the Principles point those who care about mental well-being to discourage indulging in self-analysis and long discussions about what's... | 39m 26s | ||||||

| 12/20/25 | Episode 206: Trying, Seeking, and Doing | Without intending to, we often put pressure on ourselves from trying too hard and seeking to achieve goals that may be unreasonable, which amounts to doing more and more and becoming increasingly frustrated. Many "accomplished" people live on the edge of exhaustion and get no joy from what they do. If we turn in the direction we want to go, and then quiet our minds and listen for our own wisdom, we'll see what to do, at what pace, and we'll enjoy the journey as much as appreciatin... | 33m 38s | ||||||
| 12/6/25 | Episode 205: Natural Self-Esteem | Natural self-esteem is built into humanity; it's just being ourselves and embracing life. Once we start to analyze ourselves, or become self-conscious about perceived flaws or worried about what others think about us, we lose touch with our connection with life and others. Whether we think we're great, or fear we are awful, we live in insecurity. We live in our head, not from our heart. That doesn't mean we don't want to develop our knowledge, or take interest in stayi... | 34m 00s | ||||||
| 11/22/25 | Episode 204: The Power of Innate Health | The term "Innate Health" refers to the pure life energy that is the essence of our power to recognize when to turn away from non-constructive thinking and negative feelings. It is mental well-being that is natural to us. We lose touch with it when we get caught up in our thinking, but we can't lose it. It is who we are. The Principles describe it. We determine whether to acknowledge it, appreciate it, and listen to the common sense and wisdom it offers when we do... | 36m 02s | ||||||
| 11/15/25 | Episode 203: What We Mean by "Deep Feelings" | When we refer to deep feelings, we are talking about the quietude, inner ease, and sense of connection and appreciation innate to all people. It's a feeling natural to us, our spiritual essence, unconditional love. We sometimes try to attribute our deep feelings to things outside ourselves: people, situations or outcomes. But nothing outside has power to "make" us feel. The harder we try to find them, the farther we take ourselves away from them. Deep feelings ar... | 37m 54s | ||||||
| 10/18/25 | Episode 202: Minding Our Own Business | Our life is a neutral sequence of ideas and events; how we think about life determines our experience of it. So the details of daily living are not the "cause" of our felt experience. Our thinking about them is. We forget that, as the thinkers, we can "color" our thinking about life any way we want. A lunch with someone we used to work with can be a light-hearted sharing of memories, or a depressing rehearsal of things that went wrong. Remembering a failure can g... | 33m 38s | ||||||
| 9/27/25 | Episode 201: What Does It Mean To Be "The Thinker?" | We talk readily about being "the thinkers of our own thoughts" and because of that, being "the creators of own reality." But it matters to realize the remarkable power of those facts. We never have to live as the victim of our own most negative or distressing thoughts. When people say casually how upset they are that they "keep thinking about" something that troubles or concerns them, they are missing the remarkable truth about our power TO think, the power we have... | 38m 02s | ||||||
| 9/6/25 | Episode 200: What Do We Mean by "Going Deeper" | Some expressions we use are profoundly meaningful to us, but may seem like jargon to others. One of those is "going deeper," the way we describe how to slow the memory-based activity of the intellect to allow quietude, to trust that insight will arise when we need it. The benefit from seeing the Principles behind experience is not information, but feeling a positive shift towards living in peace and ease, trusting in universal wisdom and mental well-being as the essence of all us.... | 36m 43s | ||||||
| 8/30/25 | Episode 199: What Explains Psychological Shifts? | Those of us who work with the Three Principles often describe "shifts in level of consciousness" that awakened us, and that are the essence of change for clients who benefit from realizing the Principles that explain our life experience. These shifts are insights, the source of change, and they arise from quieting our minds and trusting wisdom will come. It may happen in a moment in time, but once people "see" the connection between our thinking and our experience, they can always... | 32m 22s | ||||||
| 8/23/25 | Episode 198: Believing in Our Own BS | We make up ideas about ourselves, take on ideas others have about us, and wonder why we have different thoughts about the same things day to day. We see this in others -- the girl with the beautiful voice who refuses a solo because she thinks she can't stay on key alone; the bright young man who never speaks up in class because he thinks he would be mocked; the grandmother who won't pick up her grandbaby because she can't stop thinking about a movie in which a baby is injured when dropp... | 33m 50s | ||||||
| 8/2/25 | Episode 197: You're Not Special. Unique, Maybe, but Not Special | As we grow up, we start to think about ourselves. We react to our parents' and other adults' expectations of us, and measure our worth against our performance. We watch people we admire and compare ourselves to them. The more we start to wonder how we're doing, the more we use our thinking to compare ourselves to others when we feel uncertain or insecure. Some people brag and "talk a big game." Some people feel more and more inadequate and either tell others abou... | 34m 46s | ||||||
| 7/19/25 | Episode 196: Common Misunderstandings, Part 2 | The sign that we're overthinking is that whatever we're doing starts to feel difficult and we start to feel more confused and urgent. The more we think, the more we get lost in our thoughts. Often our life training, or our inclination, is to keep trying harder to figure things out. But the feeling of confusion or urgency that arises is a warning sign that what we really need is to quiet down, give our thinking a rest, and get a fresh start. It doesn't require a long ti... | 35m 00s | ||||||
| 7/5/25 | Episode 195: Common Misunderstandings, Part 1 | We sometimes make relationships and communications more difficult than they need to be through innocent misunderstanding of the state of mind that facilitates good communication. Common communication problems are not truly listening, which happens when we're thinking about the next point we want to make or taking things personally and thinking about ourselves rather than listening for the point. To sidestep awkward or difficult communication, we can listen to the other(s) from a q... | 36m 12s | ||||||
| 6/21/25 | Episode 194: Going Too Fast and Missing the Point of Living | Christine offers the metaphor of life seeming like a high-speed train ride. We settle down, look out, and take in the view as the train slowly starts to move. Then we experience the illusion, as the train speeds up, that life is moving past us. Suddenly, when the train reaches full speed, life is a blur rushing by, and we can barely take it in or enjoy it. Many of us spend a lot of our time moving and thinking so fast that we are always in a hurry -- doing the best we ... | 35m 08s | ||||||
