Being Human Podcast

Struggling with life's big questions like "What should I do with my life?" is so common, you may be surprised that a billion people are asking it right now too. You're not alone. This video dives deep into the pressures of societal expectations, changing your perspective on how to ask a useful question and not succumbing to doubt and overthinking.

You're hard on yourself because you may be familiar with its usefulness. It's motivates people in the short term, but not the long term. Quick quiz in this video - what do Andrew Huberman, Tiger Woods, Jay Shetty, Kevin Hart and Liver King all have in common? Be careful what you believe about human idols, we all make mistakes.

What's the best way to navigate life's endless questions and find meaning in the seemingly meaningless? We deal with this not by desperately seeking answers only intellectually or by rigid methods, but by living out the questions themselves. I'm encouraging you to let experience and life itself provide the answers, suggesting that sometimes, it's okay to let things be meaningless for a while. For those looking for inspiration, a different perspective, or simply a reminder that it's okay not to have all the answers, this video is a must-watch. And exciting news for podcast enthusiasts: I've announced plans to bring guests back onto the podcast! SPEAK WITH SCOTT https://www.scottstemarie.com/coaching SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL https://www.patreon.com/scottstemarie Scott speaks across North America about emotional wellbeing, mental health and our innate need for connection. His history with mental health challenges have allowed him to develop a strong sense of empathy and compassion with his audiences and those he works with personally. Music is his true obsession as he plays the guitar, drums and sings.

Is your mind really worthy of such admiration, attention and energy? In this episode on the Being Human Podcast I share a simple meditation and simple examples as to why you don't have to believe everything you think. Worshiping the mind is a thankless task.

What do I do when nothing seems to work? All of the those tools just don't have any use. When I've felt like I can't go on, sometimes it's actually a signal to stop trying to move and be still.

The polarization of thoughts. We just can't win against the negative emotion. The competition of behaviours and the fight, where does it end? If we don't win we lose? If we're not happy does that mean we're doing something wrong? Let's talk about negative emotions and answer our friends question. Free 5-Part Anxiety Mini-Course: https://www.scottstemarie.com/conqueranxiety

A simple "meditation" to simply take a break from your day and sit in the middle of it. Notice and become aware of yourself in your surroundings. Would you drive through a beautiful landscape with the windows covered? We so often rush through a day and don't stop to experience the happenings of the moment. The sensations, the smells, temperatures, tastes, textures. Let's take a quick break together, right now.

We become lonely when we don't know our true selves. We need to do that first and accept ourselves the way we are. Then, we find others who accept us for who we are, not who we can be or should be. Sending you love my friends.

This episode is full of examples as to why you may not need to try so hard to be in the present moment and slow down the worrisome thoughts. Take care of your social, psychological and physiological wellbeing, have the tools available and just let the present wash over you my friend. No pressure, just let it happen.

Here's are some of those tools I mentioned: https://www.scottstemarie.com/conqueranxiety

I speak about my experience with anxiety and share a practice with how I've changed the relationship I have with the sensation of anxiety and thoughts that arise in the mind. Congratulations for taking care of yourself and taking a moment to slow down and check in with yourself.

There's no pressure to feel better this morning. What if we just get through it together and take it one moment at a time. I'll walk with you and keep you company.

In this episode I explain a simple technique you can use to feel, understand and then create distance with fear. This isn't about "getting rid of" feelings or trying to escape. Fear is such a primal and beautiful part of being human so let's integrate it into our lives and allow it to come with us for the ride.

I'm not sure when or if I'll come back, but that answer will come in time. Listening to my body is something I'm learning more intently now and it's telling me to let go of the online world and outreach. I'd like to focus on my speaking, helping people 1-1 and being present with both family and friends while I continue to discover my new path of wellness. I wish you all the best in emotional and physical health.

Exercise has always been my outlet when feeling low. In my entire life I have never gone this long without physical exercise. I'll be taking a break from podcasts for a little while, as headaches have become too much. But as stated in the episode, simply now grows stronger for those who live in physical pain. My options will never run out unless I quit.

After recording some meditations for the YouTube audience, I left the microphone on and just talked about what came up in my mind. I wonder what you would see if you looked out of the box. I wonder what you would experience if you lived outside the box.
