Dr. UnStuck Podcast — Get Out of Your Head. Get Into Your Life.

Most of us have heard the overused cliché of "less is more," perhaps without realizing the effect that simplifying can have on our mental health, relationships, time, and finances. #lessismore #simplify #declutter

As human-beings we all have our challenging moments. At times we can be annoying, selfish, and unintentionally hurtful. Toxic behavior is at a whole other level, where there is deliberate hurtful, hateful, and often manipulating behavior done with the intention of causing damage to someone else. Toxic behavior often stems from narcissism. There is often addiction involved. Being raised by or in a...

We have all heard the phrase "toxic positivity," yet no where in the optimism lifestyle guidebook does it say to ignore negative emotions. Negative emotion is a flashing neon sign that something needs to change and it is very important that we pay attention to these. We do not, however, need to reside in this place.

This discussion will address the current challenges of parenting, educating, and working with anxious young adults, primarily the obstacles resulting from maladaptive avoidance behavior. #anxiety #avoidancebehavior #genz #positivechange

The quality of your life is a reflection of your emotional habits. We can allow certain memories to surface which bring with them the attached emotion. This becomes a pattern which guides us back to our "emotional home" like a homing pigeon, and most often we are completely unaware of how or why we landed there once again. This is because we have learned to be comfortable with unhealthy...

People often think that so-and-so won the "happiness lottery," or got lucky with their success in life. The high majority of the time, this is not how it works. Successful people are outwardly rewarded their diligence and tenacious time-management behind the scenes. Successful people spend their life-minutes wisely. Successful people are in alignment with their purpose.

As it turns out, the age old story of the tortoise and the hare also works for passion projects. Many creatives are all too familiar with what it's like to be all fired up on a good day, dropping everything else we are doing to get as far as possible with our project when we are "in the zone." However, as it turns out, this is not the most efficient or fastest way to reach your passi...

As they say, "slow and steady wins the race." Also, minimizing the steps to complete the tasks along the way is key to achieving goals. Simple and slow leads to big success. #success #slowandsteady #passion #motivation

This is how our guest today, Ryan Dunphy, defines time management. After many years of working in the medically-based wellness world with stressed out, sick, and tired people, Ryan has come up with a new and different approach for life and business. Ryan's take on time management is that time is a finite source, everything else is a variable, and all you have to do is bring the right energies...

Transend self-importance

As it has been said by so many, change is the only constant in life. Just like the seasons, each part of life has something else to offer and new ways to look at things. Life can also be like a lasagna noodle with its ups and downs, and accepting these peaks and valleys is the key to inner peace. No storm lasts forever. There is a time for everything.

To avoid getting "meeting bombed," block out segments of time throughout the week. This is ultra-important, as creating white space in your calendar allows for white space in your mind. In today's fast-paced society, we must be as intentional as possible about the daily choices we make in order to avoid getting swept up by the current of the unnecessary.

Trust it. Send it.

How we choose to view the world around us and our own prosperity are intricately connected.

When we speak about what we lack, most people jump straight to not having enough money. There are actually many ways to experience scarcity and developing a "scarcity mindset" can be powerfully dangerous to our well-being, leaking its way into school, work, relationships, and the vision we have for our future. #scarcitymindset #limitingbeliefs #prosperity

We are creatures of habit, and many of us have become glued to our phones by passive non-resistance. We need to take charge and salvage our precious life-minutes by turning off our phones. Better yet, leave it in your sock drawer for the day, a half day, or perhaps start with one hour. Small wins lead to big success. #turnoffyourphone #cellphoneaddiction #presentmoment

What we practice, we inevitably get better at.

The good life is simple

This idea of bringing success to everything we do each day is a great way to live. When we take on one room at a time and bring success just to that one room, miracles happen. For many, the kitchen is the emotional centerpiece of the home, no matter how small or large this space may be. When we bring order to the social center of the home amazing things happen. #declutter #fengshui #innerpeace #jo...

The home is an outward expression of ourselves. It has a vibe that sends a message to all who enter. To create a "Real Life" dining room (or another space), means to create a space that is welcoming, a space that invites conversation, celebration, contemplation, laughter, tears, and joy. #selfexpression #authenticity #keepitreal

Dr. Lynda Ulrich speaks to us on a very important and timely topic involving our media-saturated society, and what happens to the brain when we impulsively click on negative news articles and videos on the internet. This is not to encourage ignorance; however, but rather to limit news intake to approximately 12 minutes and during midday, avoiding the time right after we wake up and right before we...

Not only does reading make you more interesting, but it also makes many things easier.

The practice of gratitude has levels. Saying thank you is the beginning. Then, acquiring a gratitude journal is the next step toward daily practice. The highest level is "acting as if" . . .
