How To Overcome the Trance of Stressful and Anxious Thoughts
My guest today is Adam Houck. Adam is a consultant and leader for a Fortune 500 global technology company, a top amateur golfer, and a guitarist. But for this podcast's purposes, think of Adam a friend who knows what it’s like when our thoughts challenge us and cause suffering. Adam and I talk about how the pandemic cracked open deep-rooted trauma and his journey of healing his mind and spirit.
Expect to learn:
- Why stressful thoughts put you in a trance–and how to break the trance
- How to use simple practices like journaling and tapping to interrupt the mind’s negativity patterns
- Why doing the work is intense–and the positive (and life-changing) effects you should expect on the other side
