“You don’t learn fear, fear is there and you learn security” woah

I was a truck driver so I had plenty of time to worry about the time I was mean to Fred or when Bob stole my apple. I heard a psychologist on the radio say " If you are worrying just concentrate on what you are doing." I concentrated on just driving the truck, enjoying the sunshine and the worry just disappeared. 35 years later this technique still works. If you have serious worries then you need to find someone to talk to. I always talked to my mum but she had dementia. I just found a female psychologist, who was fantastic. Like my mother in many ways. Told me some stuff I didn't like. Grounded me.

That's pretty much what meditation is. Duration a meditation session, you try to step down from an overthinking mind and revert to a low-effort state of mind where you only receive and experience what your five senses bring in. A 10-minute daily practice is helpful in building the habit, as it's not always possible to consciously remind yourself to be mindful amidst a busy and stressful day.

The Power of Now by Eckhrat Tolle.

My mom was very harsh, not abusive but never warm and loving. A gen z-er would blame her lack of warmth for all their fiture problems, thereby never being challenged to grow up and have compassion. I learned her story of being virtually orphaned in the 1930s at 6 years old and raising herself, thus becoming hard and tough was a survival skill. Ended up admiring her tenacity while cultivating compassion and empathy. It all has to do with not seeing yourself as the victim. Reframe your narrative.

In retirement I had been haunted by a traumatic event that took place 23 years prior. I put pen to paper at that time, to help me piece together the missing puzzle pieces of what had happened. In the years that followed I was distracted from the trauma by a demanding career, raising children, study, litigation etc. These masked my hurt. Then, in retirement, I needed to put pen to paper again. This time in more detail, and somewhat more analytical. Yes, it drew out a visceral reaction. So much so that I had to go back to a clinical psychologist. Finally, I think I can now finally let it go. Writing helped.

Raised in abusive home, by the time I was 10 yrs. old, I realized that telling other adults was pointless. They felt sorry for me, but did nothing. I began to write. I am now 63 years old and folks say I should write a book. Lol, I wrote many, just never wanted to pay to have them published.

It does disturb one sometimes, to remember a teacher or parent that bullied us. Will try the writing.

The memory isn't changed, the perspective is.

"Fear is there ... and you learn security". I'm going to need to work through that thought. As an adult, I've believed that fear is taught -- those plants will hurt you; never surprise a horse from the rear; stay on the sidewalk; don't tease the cat, etc, etc. However all those teachings only work because you're secure the advise is from someone actually interested in your well being. Thank you Dr. Peterson for helping neophytes better understand themselves and the people around us.

“Fear is there. You learn security.” This should’ve been so obvious. How did this escape me? Escape us? I think you solved some issues for me in this 10 min.

I have kept a journal since I was 16 and found many times, once I write about something or someone (sometimes it takes a few times), I usually feel better over time. Once in a while it happens faster than that, but I agree, over time, I am able to adjust somehow inside. Thanks Dr. Peterson.

I used to cry to get past them until they come around again. Now I can't even cry anymore so I'm not sure what I'm doing. Damaging my heart I guess. I haven't tried Peterson's potion yet, this stuff is really difficult to initiate voluntarily.

It's weird how memories can change. Not trauma, but a memory that changed in a profound way: I was bullied as a child and as a teenager. As a result, for a very long time, I thought everyone had negative feelings about me. I felt incredibly alone, especially through my teenage years. I had very specific memories of that feeling of loneliness. Then one day, someone told me about the boy next door, who I had secretly adored all through my teenage years... He had been in love with me all this time. Apparently his parents and brothers would tease him with it and we were both too shy to really ever talk to eachother. Now, when I was a teenager, I know was sad... But I can't seem to touch that sadness anymore in my memories. It's as if it has been somewhat erased, because I know it was based on a false belief. Our memories really aren't set in stone. Since I found that out, I have put this knowledge to work on some real trauma... And it works, for me at least.

emotions play a huge role on memories. what memories you used to have can change drastically based on recent or past events, example if everything has been well and something terrible has happened associated with that memory, your brain reconstructs those memories to associate with bad times and fear, the reverse can happen with bad to good but it’s fascinating how emotions, trauma, and euphoric events can completely change how we view our on memories and perception of our own memories as you live on

@awesomedavid2012

That's one thing sleep does. As you sleep, the strong emotions from the previous day (or days) are lessened. It's hypothesized that one of the reasons for PTSD is that this process doesn't happen leading to the emotions in the memories being as strong as when they occurred. That's one mechanism by which your old memories may "dull". Though of course, simply processing it logically and consciously helps a lot too. If you're interested in that sleep stuff, check out podcasts by Dr Matthew Walker and his book "why we sleep".

As a Christian, you have the Holy Spirit in you. When you write on your journal and you reflect, you will be reminded of certain Bible verses you read or heard from your pastor. Write those down too. That’s the Holy Spirit in you, guiding you and bringing things to your remembrance. You can even write on your journal like a prayer, a conversation between you and your Heavenly Father. Tell Him the things that are bothering you, ask him for wisdom and help when you feel stuck. David journaled this way too, when he wrote his Psalms. This method of journaling has been very healing for me.

Just writing out your bad memories really can help. The simple act of writing them out, of analyzing them afterwards, can help you a lot in moving forward in the now, or at least highlighting and isolating the issues you're still struggling with.

I had twelve years, wondering why I hadn't settled in the village, it was twelve years! Then the turmoil, elsewhere, that I had known about, broke out and was resolved, sort of. And I wasn't connected with it directly, but had broken away from it, early on, so felt pleased I had made the right decision, then. And then I overheard what was the key the original problem: his mother wouldn't let go! This was about the departing vicar, I think. I'm not sure, but it certainly fits what I know and experienced over those twelve years! My take is that I had noticed all those people in the know, and were pretending everything was OK. Pretence is the most debilitating habit, and pretending it's perfect, continually, is an obvious sign that it chronic.

All 3 shame fear and rage. Wow I think those are pretty accurate descriptions to describe that person It was a really interesting interesting experience. Every other time I had blacked out and then would become lucid again when the source of the black out was elevated. But I was present for it through the whole time for the first time. As in I was lucid. I watched myself get into bed closing my eyes, Shutting down, series of events that had all occurred before that I was never until now truly lucid for. The reason I know those events had occurred before is because when it happened I remembered all the other times that I had just forgotten. I digress. Mentioned series of events happened felt like they happened in a blink of a second as my body had taken over and I was a spectator to my body defending me. Then as I was opening and closing my eyes as I was resisting to shut down something happened. I saw my screen lock and then I became exhilarated with energy becoming present and lucid in a moment,and then I pushed through and finished the video. My screen lock is a pick of me dressed as a priest with the caption “Fear not my son take my hand and I will carry you through the valley of darkness” Final thoughts: Well JP you where right, I really didn’t want to do it. Sorry that’s an understatemen I had never not wanted do something more then writing that down or getting through this video in my entire life. I was cursing the f**k out of you, just absolutely losing It and bewildered af, but afterwards the whole experience was like a release of funk, a catharsis release. A phoenix rebirth, a Christian rebirth if you will.

we tend to think we learn fear. fear is there, and you learn security. You cant end the video with such life changingly mindblowing sentence! While you were talking I was thinking about how I feared working in the court at first as a lawyer (my parents had a toxic divorce) and as I had to come and go I started to feel like it became a playground. My social anxiety went away after sometime as I worked and were able to analyse my experiences with the mindset of understanding the reasons behind other people's behaviors towards me. All my life I thought I had too much fear, more than others. I just had less experience than others. Often I'd think I wasnt meant to do the things I imagined because I wasnt tenacious and brave enough to push through the path. This video was meant to find me.

Yes it is lack of supervision, but a 6yo boy, is quite a difference from a 4yo girl. Even if they were unsupervised, he still bullied or assaulted her. So her experience is the same regardless. No one protected her. A 10yo girl assaulted by a 12yo etc is also case of lack of supervision, but it’s still assault. Being bullied at the workplace is also a case of poor supervision, in that case by management. In fact all bullies/sexual assaulters are getting away with what they do, because they have access to someone vulnerable who isn’t being protected. For the victim, why it happens, doesn’t change the fact that it happens and has happened to them.

I understand what you are referring to you, so please hear me out. There's a difference between what you are referring to and healthy memory enquiry. With a memory, one of two or more things are happening, 1) you don't remember the details 100%, it's more like 5% and you fill in details based off your perception of how you feel right now or assumed you felt at the time. And 2) you are remembering the past through your current psychological filters and core beliefs about your own inner self worth. And 3) if the memory is fresh then the memory is more accurate. Now to the point - I've heard people talk about regressing memories as being dangerous due to reliving trauma, and yes this is true but... Its only trye when you empower the memory with ideology pertaining to your core beliefs about you or the event. As opposed to viewing the memory with a complete liberated freedom from within you. As an example - two memories One is someone breaking your heart, and the other is sharing a birthday with family. Here's the point - If you remember getting your heart broken in great detail, it is not the memory that hurts you, it is in fact the idea you hold about yourself that you embody. If you have low self worth, then during the remembering of a painful event, you'll be holding true in the meaning that you are worthless, and it is the pain of being worthless that makes you vulnerable. The visual acuity of the memory is as harmless as a tv screen. Think of a memory with family on a birthday (a pleasant one) Why does one memory hurt and the other not? Because the memory is not the thing that hurts you. Its the association that you emphasise and place on your self, or ot is the meaning you give to the thought that hurts you. It is you that hurts you. So when you regress memories to heal them, you must allow yourself to feel the pain with an open mind to find the pain within you, simply by looking at the pain it will disappear. This has long been the secret of many great masters. Your focus on the raw pain (unlabelled) will metabolize it. Its only when we look at the pain with a story like "he/she did that" or "I am the victim" or "it shouldn't have happened" it's these stories we hold true that emphasise the emotion that we hold about ourselves that make the memory stagnant. True liberation comes from acceptance. And to do that you must look and realise the memory is just, and the story you place on the memory is the pain. When you look into a memory, it is the story that you place on the event that hurts you. Understand that. Think of it like watching a movie. How can a movie hurt you? Yet we all cried in titanic right? Because the pain comes from what it means to us! To lose someone is painful. So it's the story of "I'm worthless, and my life isn't worth living if I lose this person" .. bang ! Emotion! The movie didn't do it. Your emphasised ideology of your self worth that you placed on the movie did it. So to regress a memory in a healthy way you must get good at looking at it unbiased. From the others perspective, and it helps to really understand your core beliefs and how they always come into determine your reality. I am tried and tested true with this. I've healed many many memories in my life, ones from my parents and lovers throug this. And yes it absolutely helps to write them down. Because weeks later you can reread your pain and realise how little you actually care, or you over exaggerated an event. Read Byron Katie - I need your love is it true Its not just love. Its all about false perspective

EMDR is awesome. similar to toltec recapitulation. writing your inner dialog down is also very helpful.

What a good simple presentation of this video. Elsewhere it would be rehashed with a wretched two note piano repeat and fancy graphics making it difficult to understand.

I have two health related traumas that haunt me. One is I got sepsis and the other I got anxiety. I have recovered from the sepsis and I have improved greatly with the anxiety. But both traumas haunt me because I don’t know, definitely, why the occurred. I can recite back the sequence of events but I don’t know how to avoid a reoccurrence of either of the two events. Part of my lingering anxiety is about not knowing how to avoid getting sepsis or how to avoid getting severe anxiety. I mention this because I too have come to find that *understanding* is key to resolving emotional issues. But what to do if such understanding isn’t available?

the number one cause of that anxiety and at least how you mention it here is needing to get rid of the anxiety. when you feed into your anxiety, it only grows. when you have this itching feeling to get rid of those memories, you’re only putting more attention to your brain to getting rid of it, which brings the specific memories you don’t want back, associating those memories with “i need to get rid of them” and puts panic to when they come back. think of it like the chinese finger trap, the more you resist it, the more stuck you are. getting rid of those memories completely is quite foolish. if you become focused on getting rid of them, your brain can be hyper fixated on those thoughts and feelings creating more stress. it’s good to journal your thoughts, how you feel, how they make you feel. try to do other activities and you’ll soon to realize you don’t really care ab the worry. change your perception on those feelings and those memories can simply be memories. there are people, and i’ve seen in this comments too explain it better than i could on how to solve it but i can at least attempt to pin point the problem. journaling is one of the best things you could do, create new memories to create new events that make those old memories seem not as important, live in the present, the more you focus on the past and future the more it impacts your current moment, impacting what can happen for you in the future and creating more bad past events, think ab it like this too, if your past events are you worrying ab those memories it creates a loop, which then impacts how you deal with it in the future as well. look at life objectively and remember that you are simply an observer of your mind. not all thoughts or memories need to be dealt with and not having to completely forget ab them or worry ab control over your mind can downplay any stress that may occur when the memory comes. the psyche is very smart but can very bad by setting it’s own traps, it’s just anatomy.

What lecture is this from?! Was waiting to hear the end of the story he was sharing but this is a snippet and wanna hear it!

I was bullied in school but when I started to train in Judo, 2 years after, Bullies did not come to closer anymore.

There's a reason you only communicate to reflect, Jordan

Interesting and so valuable. You would so enjoy the work of James Hillman and Jung on these deeply mythical subjects of memory and the daimon which is our souls journey and these experiences of childhood when we are perversely polytheistic and still amoral and how that influences how we can reimagine the stories from our experiences

Every supposed fact.... most of them.... always go deeper.... and examining anything or anyone long enough can change understanding.... change a supposed fact.... this happens in court rooms as well.... it will also happen at the great and last day.... perfect clarity of understanding of our lives.... That is how great our Father in the Cosmos is.

I have written things down in very detailed terms. I am still struggling to manage my emotions and letting things go. I heard that BPD could be treated with DBT but that it's not curable. I dont manage well once triggered all I want to do is get away so I dont hurt people. I feel so futile. It's such an ugly way to live and no one can or will be friends. So how does writing help with borderline personality disorder

Where's the link for the complete video?!

Can you please Link the source of the clip I want to watch the rest of it please!

Full video link please

Hello!Is ls the link of the whole lecture available?

Aldous Huxley was the first, in my personal history, to comment about the healing properties of writing off your inner demons. You start with the cathartic effect of writing and, your writings will ressonate with people and will become commercially viable. time will tell if you will become a remembered writer or your writings were just yours.

Someone send full video

Wow 😊

Nice👍

Where was this clip taken from? I need to see the whole thing

8:00 negative emotion

Thank you Dr Peterson ❤️🙏🏽

The past is fixed and the world consists of facts. Memories are a model of the world which can change.

If somebody have a traumatic memory and things happened to them. It is also a big point of how you think of that. How you look at it. The thing that happened you cannot be changed But how you look at it.... is also up to you. But there are two places of storage of memory. You cannot access stored trauma with awareness, those stored in the "feeling" location. One is the consciousness the awareness The other is the feeling.

Who had tried this? Did it work? What advice do you have?

Triage in mental health is important to identify injuries much like triage in medical aid.

Please roll that mic back around 6khz!

Very true. I had two narcissistic parents who scapegoated me. My father started the abuse before I can remember. I know, because I saw what he did to my little sister and he liked her MUCH more than he did me. He could turn a "Kodak Moment" into pornographic ugliness with his sickness. My mother told me I would be better off dead if I disappointed my parents, which is all ever I seemed to do. Any friends or mentors I had soon died or moved away. I was intensely curious, a bit creative in verbal and other ways, and an empath. He twice carried me to a circus when I was 4 to see my distress at the wobbling stack of chairs with a clown in the top chair. He fed off my facial reactions because, I think, he felt dead inside. He was sadistic, constantly threatening me verbally, telling me he played for keeps and that was true. He was harming me and he intended to do so. The abuse continued most violently when out hunting and fishing with him, which should have been our quality time. I was confined to my room after the evening meal for years on end. The family was watching tv and I was isolated in my room. I was left home on the family's vacation. Writing was a huge help and watching KZread's video's on Narcissistic parents helped me to begin to see my dystopian childhood in a clearer light. I am 80 years old and ready to move into an assisted living arrangement that is badly needed, but my mind is still sharp. My father rationalized his behavior toward men as trying to crush my spirit. Little boys are rambunctious. I was a wiggle de worm, and probably ADHD. Randy Newman, the songwriter (You've Gotta Friend in Me, Short People, etc.) was on a concert tour of Europe and between songs was asked how many children he had. He replied that he had 4 kids. He said he had two boys first and then two girls. He said that if he had had the two girls first and then the two boys, he would have thought the boys were retarded. Some of the women that I shared this with positively exploded in sustained rib-busting laughter.

I will write and throw in rough papers from now on

❤ JBP

I overcome all the people who gave them to me that's how.....

How do I write them down - is there a template I can use

It is fear or curiosity

Where is this clip from?
