This is EXACTLY 💯 like my personal story... from SRA from age 5-11 then Sexual/Spiritual/& Physical abuse from age 14-21. I've always remembered, but never spoke of it until age 16 when my twin told the truth to her counselor after an attempt to "check out permanently " at age 16. I've TOTALLY BEEN praying that all EVIL would be exposed to the light in the coming years. I don't believe in a lot of the "spiritualism". I'm definitely grounded and grateful for the relationship between my LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ!!! 👑✝️❤️🌎🐑☝️🦁💪🏾⚓️🪨🏔🏰🛡🗡📖🙏🛐🎶🙌🧂🕯💧🔥🕊🤟
ty stephen for starting podcast asking to hit sub button. reminds me to click like right away as i have never not liked your interviews. I ofyen forgetbto click like or make comment and give you recognition you deserve. im a 60 year old gay Canafian who loooovvvves uour podcast keep up great work.
Money is an illusion - created by humans. We each agree to the rules of this illusion - despite the suffering the story of money brings. We have enough natural and human resources to create housing, food and safety for all human beings. The story of lack, scarcity, ownership is not REAL and reflects a lack of imagination. It is the tragedy of our species…. To date.

They have some serious narcissism as well as a narcissistic personality disorder and sociopathy. So, don’t be fooled by their words because that does not show you whether or not their pathologically disordered people.

Most of these famous peopleand interviewers online have some narcissism, if not the whole disorder.
I don’t need to go to Harvard-I’m getting the best education in the world right here. This was such a special episode. It was so real, so true, and so deeply human. At the end, it felt like I had just finished a novel that I didn’t want to put down. What a gift and a work of art. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so compelled to leave a comment and to say thank you.
Isn’t this woman a treasure! She has just helped me to put years jumbled thoughts - going along all the same lines as she spoke about and she just made sense of it all! I feel like I have just sat down and untangled a big pile of Christmas lights - then once finished plugged them in and turned them on! ❤
Every time I think I've seen the greatest episode of diary of a CEO, you guys blow my mind again. Martha is phenomenal. The whole interview is phenomenal. Both of you are masters of your own Kraft. This is a beautiful work of art. Can't get enough of this
A message for Dr. Martha Beck.. this comment may be lost amongst the thousands but thank you. Just been diagnosed with cancer and this upload has helped shift trauma❤
Wishing you strength, healing, and peace as you navigate this journey. I highly recommend Dr joe dispenza books and interviews. He's such a beautiful soul and his books can help everyone live a better life. You're not alone in this path❤️
Being Oprah’s coach may not win me over, but this woman certainly does. She’s remarkable, purposeful, and truly makes a difference in the world. Thank you for being such an inspiration!
Oprah....a very devious person she probably has found some means to turn this knowledge to her own very questionable ends...There are certain personalities that certain therapists should be very wary of empowering...
I wonder what Oprah learned from this woman . Did it make her any more authentic or honest in her life, while selling herself to what ever she sells herself to or for.
I could have lived a million years without needing to make an association between your guest and Oprah Winfry . She's so much more substantial. She's her own rock she doesn't need to endorse or substanciate herself by adding celebrities to her accolades. I feel so much depth here.
@@letstargaze is relevant because the conversation is about becoming honest with ur self and becoming your authentic self, so that's what happened when she followed her honestly
3 years ago I sold my cottage, resigned from my job and bought a narrowboat. My life has never been so hard but despite being skint, my heart is full. I wake up when I'm ready, I sleep when I'm ready. I'm immersed I nature, forage and feel connected. If I move my boat into town, the impact is so crippling. We aren't supposed to be living like this.
In Holland, many people live in their boat. It is a different lifestyle, it is not easy, you have to he organized for it, but it is more bonding to nature, to life, to people.
Alright, @Claireabellaonaboat, I see you have zero content. This comment of yours makes me want to know more about you and your choice and your life and what you have learned. As a personal coach, and since there were 111 Likes on your comment before I wrote this, I think this is your sign to start a TH-cam channel and share your experience with the world. I have no doubt it would be valuable for the collective at this time. Sending love to you. 💚✨🙏🏻
Dr. Beck is the natural alternative to Valium. Thank you, Steven for bringing her sage wisdom to the table 🍽️. We are grateful for another stellar gem 💎 show.
I suffered with anxiety for a decade but this year it stopped. The biggest question I’ve had for the past few months was “why?” And now I know why. Everything she speaks of here is truth. Be kind to yourself. Recognise your pain and move closer to what resonates with you. Stop hiding, embrace yourself and then lend others that same kindness.
Absolutely fantastic!! as someone who suffered 19 years of child abuse, have had major depression, suicidal ideology … this podcast with Martha Beck has been life-changing. I look forward to taking this amazing information and make a better life for myself. Thank you.
This is my favourite podcast for 2024. Dr Beck is wonderful, this is the first time I’ve heard of her. And your questions are shear perfection. I’m going to send this to everyone I know. This is a conversation we all need to hear.
Thank you for creating this content Mr Bartlett. Very rare to see such a vast panorama of guests having actual conversation in a respectful way. Challenging, questioning but , not contradictory. You yourself and your viewers to glean knowledge they’d never be exposed to. You are truly using your platform in the best form.
When the video ends and you realize that this is the best and most powerful episode you have ever seen in your entire life! Thank you Martha for your being! For empowering and inspiring us!
As a full time painter, I notice my anxiety levels go to zero every time I get absorbed in making a painting. It's such a great feeling, and even better if I listen to music at the same time. I feel so lucky to have found this, and to be able to access it daily.
I’m the same way!! I throw paint and make paintings in my garage when it gets really high and calms my mind ❤ glad we both have the same coping mechanisms
I think they edited out Stephen probably had tears in his eyes when she said we will fundamentally be okay.. I cried. I need to hear that and loved this interview so much.
Thanks! I really like the interviews and conversations that happen here. I don't have a lot of money, but this video is worth something substantial. 💞💖💞
I’ve been doing this for the last year after having spinal surgery and it was lifesaving for me… I was not depressed but sad with the world around me so I changed my view to the flow is when I am the best way for me to live ❤️✨
Thank you for having her on your podcast, this is such gold! The fact that she went through so many horrific things as a child and was able to find her own path, heal, and THRIVE, makes me feel like I can do the same despite my traumas. I really appreciate hearing this interview.
It's all about perception and if you want to live, survive or die. Tools help a lot and keeping busy with what makes you joyful in my opinion. It is a struggle some days but with it cos I wanna live
This was one of the most inspiring interviews I have ever heard in my life. And I am 70 years old. I am in a very similar place and related so much to what she shared. thank you so much for inviting her.
Hello there! I'm right here with you! I'm not feeling so alone with these feelings of doom crying everyday while my time here is steadily decreasing. Maybe only 5-10 summers left i estimate now. So very depressed canceled by family members as useless to them anymore. Where did I go so wrong? I always did the best I could especially raising my kids as a single struggling mother. Maybe that's what did it? I'll never know i feel. No one wants to even talk about our life back then almost 40 years ago now. My how the time flies! Whether we are having fun or not in life! Thats what I always say. It fits my life perfectly. It is what it is..m
@@MsCGarnica I have never thought about life in terms of how many summers I could have left. What an incredible way to snap ones self into it and not waste time on would haves or should haves or could haves. Thank you. I have children and grandchildren who have estranged me as well, but I am trying to live happily in spite of missing out on having relationships with them. When we play 'victim" it is a waste of our precious life and can interfere with the time we do have left.
I find it striking that Marta Beck, who courageously shared her experience of surviving incest, has a shorter Wikipedia page compared to her father’s, which focuses on praising his work while minimizing the harm he caused. It’s a reminder of how society often protects perpetrators and diminishes the voices of survivors. A clear reflection of the narcissistic tendencies in our culture.
Wikipeadia encourages all of us to send ing extra information, responses, and perspectives on any of their articles. So be a contributor in a way, but of course it will be reviewed and researched and verified, before a change is postes and the articals revised. Their good on that. @readingproject-j8y
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Ive been taking anxiety medication for 20+ years. In just the past 5 years, I have been painting and drawing, many times late at night. Even though I’m tired the next day, I have a sense of peace and I look forward to the next time I can go to that place of joy.
That's really fab, and I'm so happy for you :) I think there are many things which can put us in a kind of mindfulness practice state automatically, even things that, more often, used to be part of everyday life. We are actively discouraged from appreciating their benefits to us, where others can't extract profit from us in relation to them. But it's kind of what she says in this interview, the real thing is right there, we just have to return to it. My examples (but there's a lot more): 1. Fixing or making things - flow state brain holiday, practising resourcefulness, manual dexterity and creativity, happiness over not contributing more to landfill. 2. Cycling - brain holiday with spatial awareness gamification potential, enjoyment of combining physical exercise with free transport. To 1 I have to add that, given the multiple benefits of fixing things, products designed deliberately so they break and can't be fixed could have a massive tax slapped on them, to be invested in reviving repair and maintenance trades, whose tradesmen could also teach basic skills. That industry still exists in poorer countries and I hope it won't die in the name of "development" before it will need to be revived in the near future. They could come over and teach us. To 2, where I live, cyclists are respected on the road where not covered by separate bike lanes, enhancing the benefits. But that's because the goverment has rules which are enforced. It's all possible. So yeah, I blame capitalism lol. It's a cult that brainwashes us out of knowing what a good life even is, and that we can simply choose to live it, and ask our governments to support that.
I have an elderly neighbour who has been suffering from anxiety for over 12 months now.. I have pre recorded a relaxation audio for her to listen to, I have given her breathing techniques, physical excercises, advised her to listen to music but nothing seems to help. I'm not sure if she listens and applies the processes on a regular basis so I'm wondering if I were to buy her some colouring books if that would help her... I'll try it out.
I've read a few of her books, Dr. Martha Beck is such an amazing woman. I was particularly touched by her book about her son who has down syndrome Expecting Adam...it was so pure and spiritual. i love her and am so happy she is on your show
I worked as a crisis counselor in ERs for 33 years. A soft voice instantly brings the level of energy down in a room. Dimmed lights, warm blankets, shifting the sensory experience was essential.
I have just spent 2 years and 7 months, towards one aim: to stop incessant thinking. It is SO hard, and SO rewarding. I am so very, very thankful for hearing about Dr. Joe Dispenza. He has changed my life. Now I am glad to hear this woman too. I too have suffered a lot, and now, slowly, I feel I am more and more free. ❤❤
I have been working on stopping the words, but not thought. I try to hear everyone as if they are speaking a foreign language, that I do not understand, and I try to feel what they are saying. Pointing out errors does not help, so I am trying to listen so intently to what others say that I help them to hear their own nonsense for themselves. Every problem is a carefully assembled construct to help us learn to hear. To solve the apparent problem is like destroying the construct without learning its lesson, to hear. Like giving someone the answers on a test at school, getting the answers is not the point, learning to hear (love), is. If we give people the answers because we can hear, but they can't, we destroy the construct of their soul and their soul, subconsciously, directs them to avoid you and even hate you. All problems and situations are illusory, but have a purpose to fulfill. The wise don't solve people's problems, they help them to learn to hear the Truth.
I feel like I've been waiting my whole life for this exact video. To have been introduced to Dr. Beck was exactly what I needed-especially as an ex-mormon woman who has recently gone no contact with my abusive family. Grief has been my constant companion and I am grateful for messages of hope and strategies for coping. I write songs whenever life feels too overwhelming. Creativity has been a literal life-saver. Thank you ❤
May I suggest you give Demartini a try on grief. And view on life thru grief. Ive gone thru grief as red treat thru my life as well but Im shifting my views on reality ...
I obviously don’t know you but I am so proud and happy that you left and are not having contact with your abuser. I’m sure you have been through so much. Stay strong. 🙏💖
Ditto I grew up by her! My mom bought house on Center St corner by Farrer (in case she sees this) i am aligned with every word she says. I lived the baby version of her story living in that culture. My mom adored her dad. He was so famous! We read his books when I was on a mission in 1980. How far we've come!!!
Thank Steven, and thank you, Dr. Martha Beck, your teachings on awakening, compassion, and being in tune with nature are profound. You highlight our deep interconnectedness and the potential for harmony when we let go of judgment and materialism. Humans lived for thousands of years in balance with nature, free from many of the constructs-greed, jealousy, and fear-we’ve created. I once met a Buddhist monk on a turbulent flight who stayed calm, seeing it as an exciting experience rather than something to fear. That mindset-living in the moment without fear-felt like true enlightenment. Reflecting on this, it’s clear we need to return to simplicity, sharing, and respect for nature to evolve as a society. Talk less, do more, and focus on what truly matters.
The story of a hero who overcomes some difficult challenges or disaster and comes out a better person with some lesson for others or who is able to inspire or help the community around themselves always inspires and encourages me. Martha Beck, you are such a person, many thanks from Telford UK x
Martha's book was the first book I read after my separation and subsequent divorce. She and her book are simply incredible for anyone going through difficult transitions in life. She is a light.
I'm an addict in recovery. I've spent YEARS on the why and when did my addiction happen? or at least when it began, mostly what was the reason??? It was the moment I began my lying career. The cognitive dissonance in my body was too much to bear. After I dug into recovery and began not lying, that's been a process because mostly - I lied to myself, but the relief and contentment this simple way of living brings is incredible!!! It's literally like a substance almost. Now I'm capable of presence. Before, I was RIDDLED with anxiety or regret. I could not just be present, and that's ALL due to living in my truth. Wonderful episode. It's nice when words are put to a feeling, I'm not sure how to explain. I feel seen❤🎉
Julie may I just say you came across incredibly well. I too am an addict on the road back to recovery but am still finding the road very slippery. From reading your comment, it resonates so much that I'm gonna watch this podcast today and if it does 10% of what you say it did for you, I'll be very happy indeed. Thank you ❤
Steven, I am so happy for you that you have this career. You are likely the most skilled interviewer I’ve observed, and you bring us all of this valuable content for free. You deserve all of the valuable knowledge you gain, fun you have, and financial prosperity that results.
WOW!! This is one of my favorite episodes! Dr. Martha Beck, you are absolutely incredible and truly inspiring. Thank you for sharing your profound knowledge, wisdom, and personal journey-it’s life-changing. I don’t think I’ll ever see the world the same way after hearing this. It means so much to have access to conversations like these. A heartfelt thank you to Stephen and The Diary of a CEO team for consistently delivering such impactful content. I deeply appreciate all that you do!!!
I’ve been waiting for you to go this deep, and I always believed you could do it! I’m watching every video on the channel-they’re all amazing, and this one stands out above the rest.

I started crying just from the introduction of this wonderful woman. I guess I really need this one. Thank you for interviewing her and bringing her message to people like me ❤️
Amazing video A month ago, my partnership of five years came to an end. The choice to break up with the person I love is something that really gets to me. Even though it's all for nothing, I've done everything I can to get him back, and I couldn't imagine my existence without him. I've tried everything to stop thinking about him, but I still can't help but miss him and think about him often. I don't know why I am saying this here.
Saying goodbye to someone you love is difficult; I know this from my 12-year relationship ending. But I was unable to simply let him go, so I made every effort to get him back. I eventually sought aid from a spiritual counselor, who was able to help me regain his affection.
I just sought him up online thanks to your helpful information. remarkable I just checked Father Obah Eze online, and he's really genuine. Thank you again ❤
this is a gem 💎 I’m so lucky to come across it. I shared it to many people. Especially people who are not ready for it but need it. And I finally feel that I’m not alone in my thoughts. I felt alienated and isolated because I think differently. Watching this truly inspired me to be more bold about embracing the authentic me.
As a longtime Artist and Creative Flow coach (as well as human being) I could not be more grateful for this interview. What a mine of gold Dr Martha Beck has put out here. Thank you so much Stephen. ❤
That is awesome. I started boardgaming, the found games that use miniatures. Then I started painting the miniatures. Now I spend more time painting than playing, and leave those little plastic pieces with a weight lifted from me.
@alexlaroux777 I'm trying to imagine what 18+ Lego looks like... Are the pieces extra sharp? Super small? More choke-y? Does the Lego make boobiez? Haha. Just kidding though. Best of luck! 😀
One day I had this thought in my head, that each person is divided in 3, in a triangular shape, on the top sits the part of us that is one with the universe, the enlighten part of us, the touched by the light as she says, and another part is the "child", the traumatised versions of ourselves in different times of our lives, and the third is the "coping adult", the one that can choose to be kind to the child, mother the child, or can choose to numb and cope with drugs, alcoholism or to destroy itself. The journey of enlightenment would be the "coping adult" healing the "child" and both ascending to our third being, and reaching wholeness.
What a wonderful way of thinking. You are reminding me that there was a really good episode of Hidden Brain that talked about Ancient Greek idea of three spirits inside us, need to track it down. It was a while ago.
This brought tears to my eyes. Because I've always known that there will be a shift. There's a one-ness in the middle of the silence that will be epic when we all find it.
I loooove this! As a long time meditator and follower of a grate teacher from India, I live to witness how ancient wisdom is becoming mainstream. Thank you
Fascinating stuff.. You can always count on a therapist who has been through their own trauma, spoken openly about it ..and mastered it. Dr Martha rocks 🙂
I thought I knew how the health industry worked until I read The 23 former doctor truths by Dr. Lauren Clark. No wonder they don’t want people talking about it
After years, since childhood of depression, anxiety & dread the veil is lifting & I’m finally starting to experience life. I feel like a pseudo self had been in control of me my whole life. With intense work mind work through therapy, tricking my mind & practicing SGI Buddhism, I feel like I’m realizing my true fundamental nature. I learned muscle testing as a child, another useful tool. The mind/body connection is astonishing. Yes, there’s something shifting right now, I can feel it. May be painful to realize. But It’s going to be worth it & amazing.
The section where she describes us seeing a trillionth of the available light spectrum? WOW, I burst into happy tears! If that is possible..... exuberance!!!!
Such a bizarre thing to think. That making the podcast rounds is some sign of … anything. Other than what it is. People selling us stuff, mostly bullshit, and profiting off our data.
I deeply resonate with Dr. Beck - I have for decades. Her ‘knowing that she is here for something different’ speaks to me. I keep seeking, quietly observing. Knowing somewhere inside myself that I will know what to do and when to do it.
I struggled with anxiety,panic attacks , ocd and depression for almost 7 years.. Did Dmt a couple of months ago. And all of those mental issues went away like magic. I know its not gonna work for everybody but i hope this message reaches to whoever its suppose to reach..
I've rarely left a comment on any video and I've watched many of the fantastic interviews you led on DOAC, but this one is just wow. And you seem very moved as well. Thank you a thousand times for bring all those amazing guests and fulfilling the deepest hunger for truth and meaning of this world today. 🙏🙏🙏
I deeply feel that her wisdom comes from her healed pain. No doubt that pain can be a good teacher. Thank you both so much for this inspiring conversation.
Im so grateful to be alive at the same time as Martha Beck. She is so wise, knowledgeable, open, honest and integrous. I always feel uplifted and more myself after Ive listened to her. Thank you and love from South Africa ❤
What a lovely surprise to learn how spiritually/intuitively connected Dr. Beck has been all along. There’s absolutely a shift in human consciousness going on. It will be measured in years or possibly decades, but it is changing for the betterment of all. I’ve been experiencing it.
Thank you for this, before I watched this episode, I was drowning in anxiety in the new path I was charting and how my life was going. Recently lost my dad and all I could consistently think of was death of my family, myself. What I would achieve before I died, so many questions. But I know I’ll be watching this episode a million times. Just the orange story calmed me down so much. Thank you Steven and to the Dr, so much we need to open to and just breath. This means a lot 🙏
I've found a lot of similar experiences that changed peoples lives on the Next Level Soul podcast, but she dug into it so deep from an emotional perspective I've not seen such detail on. I found it rings true with every person that has had a near death experience as well(5500 people on nderf's website), but she brought it back to our social development in a wonderful way.
Thanks again, Steven and the team; Dr. Martha Beck just blew my mind with this one! This ‘weird trick’ to reduce anxiety and heal childhood trauma is truly a game changer! Her approach and techniques are simple yet SO powerful. The calmness in her voice is simply unique.
Steven and Martha, this was a fabulous conversation. Insightful, evocative, honest and transparent. After reading one of Martha's books this year, "The Way of integrity", I began to understand and then on the 20th of October I felt the truth in my body while I happened to be in the sea after saying the truth in a way that I would normally hide. It felt like a baptism, an alignment. Bless you both!
Love what Dr. Beck says here. I became fully awake over the past two years, after discovering Dr Joe Dispenza's work. Beck is spot-on when she says the shift in consciousness will alleviate the suffering we cause ourselves. For me, I am so in tune with the Universe now, it has changed how I interact with people daily. So thankful to say this.
I love her and love that she doesn’t make us feel so alone. Anxiety can be so scary but we truly do need to be friend our wild animal brain and notice anxiety is a tool
I was just thinking that in a midst of heavy anxiety. Anxiety feels very lonely. I’ll admit, the vulnerability to myself, my thoughts and feelings is so hard. Feels like heartbreak, in a weird way.
@ I absolutely feel that. I fight anxiety every morning and even throw up at times having no control over myself… it feels so draining and spiraling. I wish you well and hope your journey feels less dense, you deserve to heal
@@Treasuresofmind thank you for your kindness. I went anxiety attack free for months and years at a time, as of recently they just returned and they’re pretty vicious, so I feel you with the morning vomits. The spiraling is hell, but at my core I know this won’t be forever. I wish you well too, and that your mornings are filled with peace and ease.
Thought provoking podcast - My reflections Martha introduced the CAT framework for anxiety: Caring (gentleness/journaling), Art (creative expression), and Transcendence (achieving a flow state). Journaling and art, in particular, seem like practical ways to calm the mind. Integrity is central to her philosophy-aligning thoughts, values, actions, and words. Mindfulness plays a key role here, as being aware of how lying or misaligned actions affect your body helps maintain this alignment. Living truthfully has consequences-are you ready to embrace them, or is it a path you even want to take? This balance between truth and impact is thought-provoking. The concept of "seeing the light" in her 30s as a transformative moment is inspiring but feels a bit... hard to grasp for me personally. Her core message: Be kind to yourself-a simple yet profound reminder.
thank you dr. Martha Beck for existing, for making the truth your number 1 priority, in this way you are serving other people enormously. I could not thank you enough. also Steve thank you for making that interview possible, making it possible with all the open minded & hearthed questions you asked and the way you listend, thank you
38 minutes into the podcast: important point. 98% of tested 4 year olds were creative geniuses. This is so true. The education system knocks it out of people.
@@DaddyBiscuits Sure. @mangomosaics was trying to blame schools-“the education system”-for the shift in creativity as children age. The fact is that it is important for that shift to happen in order to navigate the society we live in. We teach our children HOW to do things because it is more efficient than having them figure it out on their own. What about potty training? Surely they would have more of a chance to be creative and innovative about where, when, and how to eliminate if we just left them to their own devices. I have a problem with schools being the scapegoat for all that is wrong in our society. 🙄
Parents do way more stifling of a child than the education system. When you look at the psychology of adults and the disorders (bipolar, borderline, NPD, antisocial, psychopathy, schizophrenia etc…) the family unit (along with some genetics is the major risk factor, not the school system. We have had generations of parenting styles handed down that stifle children.
Keep memorizing information, keep being an efficient machine, keep thinking productivity is your worth as a human being, keep chasing validation keep thinking the magical numbers favor competence, keep being a sheep
This episode of DOC by far, is probably my favorite now. What Martha identified, all of it, is refreshing personally to me, especially about workplace fear and anxiety. The episode's most enlightened part was how it subtly identified in me, how maybe why I'm so hard to employ because I don't have the ultimate sense of fear of dominance that an employee seems to require to have, especially.
Thank you, Martha and Steven - and everyone else behind the scenes - for this podcast. I wish everyone had the open mind and heart to listen to and hear this. I wish my mom could have heard this ... I think she would still be alive if she did. Truly inspirational. ❤
I’ve probably watched every single one of your videos but this one was so personal, so relatable and so inspiring. Gratitude and appreciation to the both of you
I’m not even 27 minutes into this episode but I am completely rapt with curiosity. And hope. I have been suffering deeply for years-especially the last five-because I don’t seem to have an identity. Meaning, my brain keeps telling me I don’t know what my purpose is. I was quite stunned when Dr. Beck speaks about exactly this. Then Dr. Beck moves into the very issue I have been grappling with the last three days-should I keep pushing myself to be creative? I have been forcing myself to do arts and crafts again for the last several weeks (after losing my connection to my artistic side decades ago).. now I know that I must push on with my goal.. and that is to work on a creative project every single day. You reconfirmed this isn’t a frivolous thing to do!
Wow. Lots of anger in the comments section on this one. I for one am really grateful for Martha Beck. I found her Integrity book when I was really struggling with a break up and I have listened to it many times. She helped me get in touch with my own hard truths and strive to make more genuine connections. I wish everyone love and happiness.
I had a lot of sadness happening to me and now I’m in the stage of numbness and acceptance and when pple show you who they are- believe it ! Social toxicity can be overcome by using creativity to balance your energy ❤
You are truly the best interviewer. You ask the best questions and I LOVE that you listen with intent instead of talking over the speaker. I learn so much from your show.
I agree he's a skilled interviewer, but I do think that, in this particular interview, he refrained from asking for clarification of the more ethereal concepts which weren't that clear. Maybe they were clarified in the book, but most of us will not have read it yet. Elaboration might have aided the decision whether to read it, so it would have benefited both interviewer and interviewee. But nevertheless, great stuff :)
Dr. Martha is describing the "state" when someone is awakened. The words are very wise. Thank you Dr. Martha, thank you Steven, thank you production team. 🎉
100% my favourite episode of yours so far. What an incredible lady Dr Beck is and I'm thrilled to have extra tools in my tool-kit to use to help my clients who are experiencing anxiety. Thank you
Dr. Martha Beck is a genius. Thank you for this exceptional podcast episode! I am quite eager to read and learn so very much from Beck's upcming Beyond Anxiety.
always asking the questions l want to know! Love how you interview and always let your guests speak as much as they want, without interruption. Thank you for inspiring and educating 🎉
Im not the type of person who can easily put together an outfit or decorate my home or draw a painting. I have always jokingly said to myself & to others “I am the least creative person I know.” But now I know that I’ve been looking at creativity all wrong. The tongue is powerful. I’ve been purposely shutting off creativity within myself. In turn, it’s caused severe anxiety, depression, scdl ideation, exhaustion, panic, ocd. When I have a panic or anxiety attack, I literally feel my nervous system being attacked. I am 35yrs old & I haven’t felt “free” from my own thoughts since about 26yrs old. I desperately want to be free & Dr. Martha may have just unlocked that possibility for me. I tried the sensory imagery mechanism and my anxiety today just went “poof” heart stopped racing, head pressure was lifted, butterflies in stomach went away. Then I started crying uncontrollably because I felt safe. No amount of breathing exercises has ever helped me. But this, gave me immediate relief.
Steven, I appreciate your vulnerability in your childlike participation of the mini exercises she led you into, like settling anxiety and where you felt it in your chest. For viewers who have never been in the presence of a therapist, I think this is helpful modeling. 🙏 On another topic, I remember my son at 4yo with a crayon behind his ear…proudly & confidently proclaiming “ I’m an artist!” Unfortunately, it didn’t take long for school to suppress the natural creativity in order to serve the left brain. He’s a mathematics major, & my hope is that somewhere in his life he can integrate and express both sides. Thanks for the interview!
I’ve got a favour to ask! If you enjoy this conversation, please double check that you’ve liked the video and subscribed to the channel! That's a small way you can help us carry on doing this, really appreciate you! ❤🙏🏾
This is EXACTLY 💯 like my personal story... from SRA from age 5-11 then Sexual/Spiritual/& Physical abuse from age 14-21. I've always remembered, but never spoke of it until age 16 when my twin told the truth to her counselor after an attempt to "check out permanently " at age 16. I've TOTALLY BEEN praying that all EVIL would be exposed to the light in the coming years. I don't believe in a lot of the "spiritualism". I'm definitely grounded and grateful for the relationship between my LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ!!! 👑✝️❤️🌎🐑☝️🦁💪🏾⚓️🪨🏔🏰🛡🗡📖🙏🛐🎶🙌🧂🕯💧🔥🕊🤟
ty stephen for starting podcast asking to hit sub button. reminds me to click like right away as i have never not liked your interviews. I ofyen forgetbto click like or make comment and give you recognition you deserve. im a 60 year old gay Canafian who loooovvvves uour podcast keep up great work.
Amazing video. Definitely one of the best interviews you've been a part of.
Can't recommend this channel enough.
Money is an illusion - created by humans. We each agree to the rules of this illusion - despite the suffering the story of money brings. We have enough natural and human resources to create housing, food and safety for all human beings. The story of lack, scarcity, ownership is not REAL and reflects a lack of imagination. It is the tragedy of our species…. To date.
💔💔
It always amazes me how people like Martha can come from abuse in the past and reach high levels of development. Truly inspiring person.
❤❤❤❤
God works wonders.
True. And serial killers also come from the abused...
@@Shadowman... if you really delve into influencers, politicians, actors, actresses, the Bikram yoga guy, cult leaders, mega church leaders, fundamentalist Christians and other prominent famous and wealthy people. They have some serious narcissism as well as a narcissistic personality disorder and sociopathy. So, don’t be fooled by their words because that does not show you whether or not their pathologically disordered people.

Most of these famous peopleand interviewers online have some narcissism, if not the whole disorder.
I don’t need to go to Harvard-I’m getting the best education in the world right here. This was such a special episode. It was so real, so true, and so deeply human. At the end, it felt like I had just finished a novel that I didn’t want to put down. What a gift and a work of art. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so compelled to leave a comment and to say thank you.

So amazing 😍 thankyou to you both.

Isn’t this woman a treasure! She has just helped me to put years jumbled thoughts - going along all the same lines as she spoke about and she just made sense of it all!

Being Oprah’s coach may not win me over, but this woman certainly does. She’s remarkable, purposeful, and truly makes a difference in the world. Thank you for being such an inspiration!
Seeing oprahs name. Nearly put me off
Agreed Opera is a criminal in power
Oprah....a very devious person she probably has found some means to turn this knowledge to her own very questionable ends...There are certain personalities that certain therapists should be very wary of empowering...
I wonder what Oprah learned from this woman . Did it make her any more authentic or honest in her life, while selling herself to what ever she sells herself to or for.
She is inspirational---I agree
I could have lived a million years without needing to make an association between your guest and Oprah Winfry . She's so much more substantial. She's her own rock she doesn't need to endorse or substanciate herself by adding celebrities to her accolades. I feel so much depth here.
Ura
No need.to add Oprahs name
Same. Oprah is so cringe.
Agreed & I really cannot stand Oprah. 😅
Yup! Especially if Oprah makes you want to gag.
@@letstargaze is relevant because the conversation is about becoming honest with ur self and becoming your authentic self, so that's what happened when she followed her honestly
3 years ago I sold my cottage, resigned from my job and bought a narrowboat. My life has never been so hard but despite being skint, my heart is full. I wake up when I'm ready, I sleep when I'm ready. I'm immersed I nature, forage and feel connected. If I move my boat into town, the impact is so crippling. We aren't supposed to be living like this.
You’re my hero ❤ I’m so happy for you!
In Holland, many people live in their boat. It is a different lifestyle, it is not easy, you have to he organized for it, but it is more bonding to nature, to life, to people.
Alright, @Claireabellaonaboat, I see you have zero content. This comment of yours makes me want to know more about you and your choice and your life and what you have learned. As a personal coach, and since there were 111 Likes on your comment before I wrote this, I think this is your sign to start a TH-cam channel and share your experience with the world. I have no doubt it would be valuable for the collective at this time.
Sending love to you. 💚✨🙏🏻

It doesn't get much better than Martha Beck. Outstanding interview Steven! BRAVO!!!!
I was not expecting to walk away from this feeling so filled with love, truth, and light. I cannot thank everyone involved in this enough.
I suffered with anxiety for a decade but this year it stopped.
The biggest question I’ve had for the past few months was “why?”
And now I know why.
Everything she speaks of here is truth.
Be kind to yourself. Recognise your pain and move closer to what resonates with you.
Stop hiding, embrace yourself and then lend others that same kindness.
Facts 💪🏾
very concise...
needed to hear this at this exact time.
thanks
Truth.
Me too am hurting alot@@Um_Beacon
Beautiful, yes. Acceptance is harder than we think. Thank you for sharing this.
I just left 42 years of toxic relationship and Dr. Beck made feel free and safe. Joyful!!
Congratulations on your freedom and god speed your well being.

That is so beautiful. Good for you! I am sending you strength and love!!!
Absolutely fantastic!! as someone who suffered 19 years of child abuse, have had major depression, suicidal ideology … this podcast with Martha Beck has been life-changing. I look forward to taking this amazing information and make a better life for myself. Thank you.
All the best for your journey
This is my favourite podcast for 2024. Dr Beck is wonderful, this is the first time I’ve heard of her. And your questions are shear perfection. I’m going to send this to everyone I know. This is a conversation we all need to hear.
Thank you for creating this content Mr Bartlett. Very rare to see such a vast panorama of guests having actual conversation in a respectful way. Challenging, questioning but , not contradictory. You yourself and your viewers to glean knowledge they’d never be exposed to. You are truly using your platform in the best form.
When the video ends and you realize that this is the best and most powerful episode you have ever seen in your entire life!
Thank you Martha for your being! For empowering and inspiring us!
As a full time painter, I notice my anxiety levels go to zero every time I get absorbed in making a painting. It's such a great feeling, and even better if I listen to music at the same time. I feel so lucky to have found this, and to be able to access it daily.
I’m the same way!! I throw paint and make paintings in my garage when it gets really high and calms my mind ❤ glad we both have the same coping mechanisms
if you chant nam myo ho ren ge kyo your karma will be faded away you will be happy convert to nichirenshoshu
I am the same way, and I felt so validated when she mentioned that and seeing your comments :)
I’m getting my easel out of the closet!!!❤
Same with me and music!
I think they edited out Stephen probably had tears in his eyes when she said we will fundamentally be okay.. I cried. I need to hear that and loved this interview so much.
Thanks! I really like the interviews and conversations that happen here. I don't have a lot of money, but this video is worth something substantial. 💞💖💞
Whoa! “Creativity kills anxiety” 🤯 simple and beautiful
One can not create when anxious. Point. Only once we remove the toxic people and things in our lives will creativity return with a new peace.
Close❤
Not always
I’ve been doing this for the last year after having spinal surgery and it was lifesaving for me… I was not depressed but sad with the world around me so I changed my view to the flow is when I am the best way for me to live ❤️✨
and creative
Thank you for having her on your podcast, this is such gold! The fact that she went through so many horrific things as a child and was able to find her own path, heal, and THRIVE, makes me feel like I can do the same despite my traumas. I really appreciate hearing this interview.
It's all about perception and if you want to live, survive or die. Tools help a lot and keeping busy with what makes you joyful in my opinion. It is a struggle some days but with it cos I wanna live
🌼🌼🌼
We all go through shit. And we should all be our own fucking hero.
End off
Me too!
There is such an advantage of being an artist full time. It certainly cured my anxiety.
This was one of the most inspiring interviews I have ever heard in my life. And I am 70 years old. I am in a very similar place and related so much to what she shared. thank you so much for inviting her.
Hello there! I'm right here with you! I'm not feeling so alone with these feelings of doom crying everyday while my time here is steadily decreasing. Maybe only 5-10 summers left i estimate now. So very depressed canceled by family members as useless to them anymore. Where did I go so wrong? I always did the best I could especially raising my kids as a single struggling mother. Maybe that's what did it? I'll never know i feel. No one wants to even talk about our life back then almost 40 years ago now. My how the time flies! Whether we are having fun or not in life! Thats what I always say. It fits my life perfectly. It is what it is..m
@@MsCGarnica I have never thought about life in terms of how many summers I could have left. What an incredible way to snap ones self into it and not waste time on would haves or should haves or could haves. Thank you. I have children and grandchildren who have estranged me as well, but I am trying to live happily in spite of missing out on having relationships with them. When we play 'victim" it is a waste of our precious life and can interfere with the time we do have left.
@@MsCGarnicaPerhaps you'll join Martha's online Wilder group!? 🎉
I find it striking that Marta Beck, who courageously shared her experience of surviving incest, has a shorter Wikipedia page compared to her father’s, which focuses on praising his work while minimizing the harm he caused. It’s a reminder of how society often protects perpetrators and diminishes the voices of survivors. A clear reflection of the narcissistic tendencies in our culture.
Go to Wikipedia and write the page.
Wikipeadia encourages all of us to send ing extra information, responses, and perspectives on any of their articles. So be a contributor in a way, but of course it will be reviewed and researched and verified, before a change is postes and the articals revised. Their good on that.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Ive been taking anxiety medication for 20+ years. In just the past 5 years, I have been painting and drawing, many times late at night. Even though I’m tired the next day, I have a sense of peace and I look forward to the next time I can go to that place of joy.
That's really fab, and I'm so happy for you :) I think there are many things which can put us in a kind of mindfulness practice state automatically, even things that, more often, used to be part of everyday life. We are actively discouraged from appreciating their benefits to us, where others can't extract profit from us in relation to them. But it's kind of what she says in this interview, the real thing is right there, we just have to return to it.
My examples (but there's a lot more):
1. Fixing or making things - flow state brain holiday, practising resourcefulness, manual dexterity and creativity, happiness over not contributing more to landfill.
2. Cycling - brain holiday with spatial awareness gamification potential, enjoyment of combining physical exercise with free transport.
To 1 I have to add that, given the multiple benefits of fixing things, products designed deliberately so they break and can't be fixed could have a massive tax slapped on them, to be invested in reviving repair and maintenance trades, whose tradesmen could also teach basic skills. That industry still exists in poorer countries and I hope it won't die in the name of "development" before it will need to be revived in the near future. They could come over and teach us.
To 2, where I live, cyclists are respected on the road where not covered by separate bike lanes, enhancing the benefits. But that's because the goverment has rules which are enforced. It's all possible.
So yeah, I blame capitalism lol. It's a cult that brainwashes us out of knowing what a good life even is, and that we can simply choose to live it, and ask our governments to support that.

What a great reply!!
I have an elderly neighbour who has been suffering from anxiety for over 12 months now.. I have pre recorded a relaxation audio for her to listen to, I have given her breathing techniques, physical excercises, advised her to listen to music but nothing seems to help. I'm not sure if she listens and applies the processes on a regular basis so I'm wondering if I were to buy her some colouring books if that would help her... I'll try it out.
@@tootsieb11How kind of you. Having good neighbours means so much and makes the world a better place
Me too, painting in the past 5 years has helped me so much
I've read a few of her books, Dr. Martha Beck is such an amazing woman. I was particularly touched by her book about her son who has down syndrome Expecting Adam...it was so pure and spiritual. i love her and am so happy she is on your show
What book was they talking about in this podcast please
@@spennny1000 The way of integrity and her new one called beyond anxiety
I know she’s not for everyone but she is definitely for me!
and for me!!!
I worked as a crisis counselor in ERs for 33 years. A soft voice instantly brings the level of energy down in a room. Dimmed lights, warm blankets, shifting the sensory experience was essential.
I have just spent 2 years and 7 months, towards one aim: to stop incessant thinking. It is SO hard, and SO rewarding. I am so very, very thankful for hearing about Dr. Joe Dispenza. He has changed my life. Now I am glad to hear this woman too. I too have suffered a lot, and now, slowly, I feel I am more and more free. ❤❤
I have been working on stopping the words, but not thought. I try to hear everyone as if they are speaking a foreign language, that I do not understand, and I try to feel what they are saying. Pointing out errors does not help, so I am trying to listen so intently to what others say that I help them to hear their own nonsense for themselves.
Every problem is a carefully assembled construct to help us learn to hear. To solve the apparent problem is like destroying the construct without learning its lesson, to hear. Like giving someone the answers on a test at school, getting the answers is not the point, learning to hear (love), is. If we give people the answers because we can hear, but they can't, we destroy the construct of their soul and their soul, subconsciously, directs them to avoid you and even hate you. All problems and situations are illusory, but have a purpose to fulfill. The wise don't solve people's problems, they help them to learn to hear the Truth.

“The parts of us who are frightened need to be heard.” I’m loving this interview!

To have been introduced to Dr. Beck was exactly what I needed-especially as an ex-mormon woman who has recently gone no contact with my abusive family. Grief has been my constant companion and I am grateful for messages of hope and strategies for coping. I write songs whenever life feels too overwhelming. Creativity has been a literal life-saver.

I grew up by her! My mom bought house on Center St corner by Farrer (in case she sees this) i am aligned with every word she says. I lived the baby version of her story living in that culture. My mom adored her dad. He was so famous! We read his books when I was on a mission in 1980.
How far we've come!!!
Thank Steven, and thank you, Dr. Martha Beck, your teachings on awakening, compassion, and being in tune with nature are profound. You highlight our deep interconnectedness and the potential for harmony when we let go of judgment and materialism. Humans lived for thousands of years in balance with nature, free from many of the constructs-greed, jealousy, and fear-we’ve created.
I once met a Buddhist monk on a turbulent flight who stayed calm, seeing it as an exciting experience rather than something to fear. That mindset-living in the moment without fear-felt like true enlightenment. Reflecting on this, it’s clear we need to return to simplicity, sharing, and respect for nature to evolve as a society. Talk less, do more, and focus on what truly matters.
The story of a hero who overcomes some difficult challenges or disaster and comes out a better person with some lesson for others or who is able to inspire or help the community around themselves always inspires and encourages me. Martha Beck, you are such a person, many thanks from Telford UK x

I never heard of Martha and I didn''t know what to expect. Part way in I was still unsure but now I am completely sure -- this is pure gold.
Martha's book was the first book I read after my separation and subsequent divorce. She and her book are simply incredible for anyone going through difficult transitions in life. She is a light.
Which book of hers did you read?
Can u mention the books name ?
Can you please let us know what book? I could really use that right now. Thank you

Thank you Steven Bartlett, and the DOAC team for bringing us these guests. Dr. Martha Beck is certainly amazing!
I'm an addict in recovery. I've spent YEARS on the why and when did my addiction happen? or at least when it began, mostly what was the reason??? It was the moment I began my lying career. The cognitive dissonance in my body was too much to bear. After I dug into recovery and began not lying, that's been a process because mostly - I lied to myself, but the relief and contentment this simple way of living brings is incredible!!! It's literally like a substance almost. Now I'm capable of presence. Before, I was RIDDLED with anxiety or regret. I could not just be present, and that's ALL due to living in my truth. Wonderful episode. It's nice when words are put to a feeling, I'm not sure how to explain. I feel seen❤🎉

My favourite was when she said "lying makes you weak." Whoooooaaa, why didn't I ever think of that.
@@zenresnyman2239Yes. Lying makes you physically weak. The technique of “muscle testing” is built upon this basic concept.

What a sweet share.
Amazing video A month ago, my partnership of five years came to an end. The choice to break up with the person I love is something that really gets to me. Even though it's all for nothing, I've done everything I can to get him back, and I couldn't imagine my existence without him. I've tried everything to stop thinking about him, but I still can't help but miss him and think about him often. I don't know why I am saying this here.
Saying goodbye to someone you love is difficult; I know this from my 12-year relationship ending. But I was unable to simply let him go, so I made every effort to get him back. I eventually sought aid from a spiritual counselor, who was able to help me regain his affection.
It's interesting! How can I contact a spiritual counselor most efficiently, and how did you find one?
Father Obah Eze is a wonderful spiritual counselor who has the ability to bring back your ex.
He can assist you; he is Father Obah Eze, and he possesses immense powers.
I just sought him up online thanks to your helpful information. remarkable

this is a gem 💎 I’m so lucky to come across it. I shared it to many people. Especially people who are not ready for it but need it. And I finally feel that I’m not alone in my thoughts. I felt alienated and isolated because I think differently. Watching this truly inspired me to be more bold about embracing the authentic me.
As a longtime Artist and Creative Flow coach (as well as human being) I could not be more grateful for this interview. What a mine of gold Dr Martha Beck has put out here. Thank you so much Stephen. ❤
7 years ago I found LEGO as an adult. It changed my life. When I build... I get lost in the work and any anxiety just melts.
That is awesome. I started boardgaming, the found games that use miniatures. Then I started painting the miniatures. Now I spend more time painting than playing, and leave those little plastic pieces with a weight lifted from me.
Wonderful, I just saw LEGO for 18+ years old and was tempted to buy it!
WoW/i really hope it's true 💪🏻🙏🏻👍🏻
@alexlaroux777 I'm trying to imagine what 18+ Lego looks like...
Are the pieces extra sharp?
Super small?
More choke-y?
Does the Lego make boobiez?
Haha. Just kidding though. Best of luck! 😀
One day I had this thought in my head, that each person is divided in 3, in a triangular shape, on the top sits the part of us that is one with the universe, the enlighten part of us, the touched by the light as she says, and another part is the "child", the traumatised versions of ourselves in different times of our lives, and the third is the "coping adult", the one that can choose to be kind to the child, mother the child, or can choose to numb and cope with drugs, alcoholism or to destroy itself. The journey of enlightenment would be the "coping adult" healing the "child" and both ascending to our third being, and reaching wholeness.
What a wonderful way of thinking. You are reminding me that there was a really good episode of Hidden Brain that talked about Ancient Greek idea of three spirits inside us, need to track it down. It was a while ago.
@@auntiemame7076let we know when U find it.. And I second what you've both said.... A wonderful and profound insight indeed!.

After years, since childhood of depression, anxiety & dread the veil is lifting & I’m finally starting to experience life. I feel like a pseudo self had been in control of me my whole life. With intense work mind work through therapy, tricking my mind & practicing SGI Buddhism, I feel like I’m realizing my true fundamental nature. I learned muscle testing as a child, another useful tool. The mind/body connection is astonishing. Yes, there’s something shifting right now, I can feel it. May be painful to realize. But It’s going to be worth it & amazing.

I've rarely left a comment on any video and I've watched many of the fantastic interviews you led on DOAC, but this one is just wow. And you seem very moved as well. Thank you a thousand times for bring all those amazing guests and fulfilling the deepest hunger for truth and meaning of this world today. 🙏🙏🙏
She is an awesome teacher for all of us! People are shifting into a better trusting of waiting for God to reveal truth to each of us. ❤
I deeply feel that her wisdom comes from her healed pain. No doubt that pain can be a good teacher. Thank you both so much for this inspiring conversation.
Im so grateful to be alive at the same time as Martha Beck. She is so wise, knowledgeable, open, honest and integrous. I always feel uplifted and more myself after Ive listened to her. Thank you and love from South Africa ❤
What a lovely surprise to learn how spiritually/intuitively connected Dr. Beck has been all along. There’s absolutely a shift in human consciousness going on. It will be measured in years or possibly decades, but it is changing for the betterment of all. I’ve been experiencing it.
Thank you for this, before I watched this episode, I was drowning in anxiety in the new path I was charting and how my life was going. Recently lost my dad and all I could consistently think of was death of my family, myself. What I would achieve before I died, so many questions. But I know I’ll be watching this episode a million times. Just the orange story calmed me down so much. Thank you Steven and to the Dr, so much we need to open to and just breath. This means a lot 🙏
I don't think I've ever spent a more inspiring two hours. Thanks so much.
It was so incredibly powerful!
I've found a lot of similar experiences that changed peoples lives on the Next Level Soul podcast, but she dug into it so deep from an emotional perspective I've not seen such detail on. I found it rings true with every person that has had a near death experience as well(5500 people on nderf's website), but she brought it back to our social development in a wonderful way.
I cant thank you enough for this beautiful interview. This lovely woman couldn't have come at a better time. The unknown seems a little less scary.
Thanks again, Steven and the team; Dr. Martha Beck just blew my mind with this one! This ‘weird trick’ to reduce anxiety and heal childhood trauma is truly a game changer! Her approach and techniques are simple yet SO powerful. The calmness in her voice is simply unique.
Steven and Martha, this was a fabulous conversation. Insightful, evocative, honest and transparent. After reading one of Martha's books this year, "The Way of integrity", I began to understand and then on the 20th of October I felt the truth in my body while I happened to be in the sea after saying the truth in a way that I would normally hide. It felt like a baptism, an alignment. Bless you both!
Beautiful. You gave me chills 🎉
'We choose death over the story of fear we carry in our minds' Profound!
I don't know what that means.
I am still unpacking. That statement has to raise the question “what is death” ?
I’m still alive, so this doesn’t make sense to me.
I think she’s talking about those who choose suicide
Right!? That caught me. Never thought of it that way. So profound
Love what Dr. Beck says here. I became fully awake over the past two years, after discovering Dr Joe Dispenza's work. Beck is spot-on when she says the shift in consciousness will alleviate the suffering we cause ourselves. For me, I am so in tune with the Universe now, it has changed how I interact with people daily. So thankful to say this.
I love her and love that she doesn’t make us feel so alone. Anxiety can be so scary but we truly do need to be friend our wild animal brain and notice anxiety is a tool
I was just thinking that in a midst of heavy anxiety. Anxiety feels very lonely. I’ll admit, the vulnerability to myself, my thoughts and feelings is so hard. Feels like heartbreak, in a weird way.
@ I absolutely feel that. I fight anxiety every morning and even throw up at times having no control over myself… it feels so draining and spiraling.
I wish you well and hope your journey feels less dense, you deserve to heal
@@Treasuresofmind thank you for your kindness. I went anxiety attack free for months and years at a time, as of recently they just returned and they’re pretty vicious, so I feel you with the morning vomits. The spiraling is hell, but at my core I know this won’t be forever.
I wish you well too, and that your mornings are filled with peace and ease.
Thought provoking podcast - My reflections
Martha introduced the CAT framework for anxiety: Caring (gentleness/journaling), Art (creative expression), and Transcendence (achieving a flow state). Journaling and art, in particular, seem like practical ways to calm the mind.
Integrity is central to her philosophy-aligning thoughts, values, actions, and words. Mindfulness plays a key role here, as being aware of how lying or misaligned actions affect your body helps maintain this alignment.
Living truthfully has consequences-are you ready to embrace them, or is it a path you even want to take? This balance between truth and impact is thought-provoking.
The concept of "seeing the light" in her 30s as a transformative moment is inspiring but feels a bit... hard to grasp for me personally.
Her core message: Be kind to yourself-a simple yet profound reminder.
thank you dr. Martha Beck for existing, for making the truth your number 1 priority, in this way you are serving other people enormously. I could not thank you enough. also Steve thank you for making that interview possible, making it possible with all the open minded & hearthed questions you asked and the way you listend, thank you
38 minutes into the podcast: important point. 98% of tested 4 year olds were creative geniuses. This is so true. The education system knocks it out of people.
Socialization knocks it out of people.
@@DaddyBiscuits Sure. @mangomosaics was trying to blame schools-“the education system”-for the shift in creativity as children age. The fact is that it is important for that shift to happen in order to navigate the society we live in. We teach our children HOW to do things because it is more efficient than having them figure it out on their own. What about potty training? Surely they would have more of a chance to be creative and innovative about where, when, and how to eliminate if we just left them to their own devices. I have a problem with schools being the scapegoat for all that is wrong in our society. 🙄
Parents do way more stifling of a child than the education system. When you look at the psychology of adults and the disorders (bipolar, borderline, NPD, antisocial, psychopathy, schizophrenia etc…) the family unit (along with some genetics is the major risk factor, not the school system. We have had generations of parenting styles handed down that stifle children.
@@letstwineyeah because the education system is so efficient and teaches us the skills to survive on society (sarcasm)
Keep memorizing information, keep being an efficient machine, keep thinking productivity is your worth as a human being, keep chasing validation keep thinking the magical numbers favor competence, keep being a sheep
This episode of DOC by far, is probably my favorite now. What Martha identified, all of it, is refreshing personally to me, especially about workplace fear and anxiety.
The episode's most enlightened part was how it subtly identified in me, how maybe why I'm so hard to employ because I don't have the ultimate sense of fear of dominance that an employee seems to require to have, especially.
Thank you, Martha and Steven - and everyone else behind the scenes - for this podcast. I wish everyone had the open mind and heart to listen to and hear this. I wish my mom could have heard this ... I think she would still be alive if she did. Truly inspirational. ❤
I am only 15 min in and I am LOVING Dr. Martha! By far my favorite guest!! Can't wait to finish this episode🙏✨💚
I’ve probably watched every single one of your videos but this one was so personal, so relatable and so inspiring. Gratitude and appreciation to the both of you
I’m not even 27 minutes into this episode but I am completely rapt with curiosity. And hope. I have been suffering deeply for years-especially the last five-because I don’t seem to have an identity. Meaning, my brain keeps telling me I don’t know what my purpose is. I was quite stunned when Dr. Beck speaks about exactly this. Then Dr. Beck moves into the very issue I have been grappling with the last three days-should I keep pushing myself to be creative? I have been forcing myself to do arts and crafts again for the last several weeks (after losing my connection to my artistic side decades ago).. now I know that I must push on with my goal.. and that is to work on a creative project every single day. You reconfirmed this isn’t a frivolous thing to do!
Wow. Lots of anger in the comments section on this one. I for one am really grateful for Martha Beck. I found her Integrity book when I was really struggling with a break up and I have listened to it many times. She helped me get in touch with my own hard truths and strive to make more genuine connections. I wish everyone love and happiness.
really ??? i guess they all got deleted then
Books name please
“The Way of Integrity”
I had a lot of sadness happening to me and now I’m in the stage of numbness and acceptance and when pple show you who they are- believe it ! Social toxicity can be overcome by using creativity to balance your energy ❤
This woman is an absolute Earth Angel ❤ Her words feel so warm , true and honest .
Thoroughly enjoyed this conversation , Thank you .
You are truly the best interviewer. You ask the best questions and I LOVE that you listen with intent instead of talking over the speaker.
I learn so much from your show.
I agree he's a skilled interviewer, but I do think that, in this particular interview, he refrained from asking for clarification of the more ethereal concepts which weren't that clear. Maybe they were clarified in the book, but most of us will not have read it yet. Elaboration might have aided the decision whether to read it, so it would have benefited both interviewer and interviewee.
But nevertheless, great stuff :)
Probably the most beautiful and significant interview and message ever throughout this podcast series. Thank you, Dr. Martha Beck !
@@mihaelaenea3426 oh really? Watch more much more and you your opinion will shift.
MARTHA BECK is profound. Everything she says is golden. I LOVE her. I listen to her books on repeat. Can't wait to read the next one.
which are the top 3 books of hers would you recommend, for emotional pain?
This is by far your best podcast. So much truth, depth, vulnerability, love and lessons for us all. Thank you for continuing to do what you do!
Dr. Martha is describing the "state" when someone is awakened. The words are very wise. Thank you Dr. Martha, thank you Steven, thank you production team. 🎉
100% my favourite episode of yours so far. What an incredible lady Dr Beck is and I'm thrilled to have extra tools in my tool-kit to use to help my clients who are experiencing anxiety. Thank you
Dr. Martha Beck is a genius. Thank you for this exceptional podcast episode! I am quite eager to read and learn so very much from Beck's upcming Beyond Anxiety.
always asking the questions l want to know! Love how you interview and always let your guests speak as much as they want, without interruption. Thank you for inspiring and educating 🎉
Im not the type of person who can easily put together an outfit or decorate my home or draw a painting. I have always jokingly said to myself & to others “I am the least creative person I know.” But now I know that I’ve been looking at creativity all wrong. The tongue is powerful. I’ve been purposely shutting off creativity within myself. In turn, it’s caused severe anxiety, depression, scdl ideation, exhaustion, panic, ocd. When I have a panic or anxiety attack, I literally feel my nervous system being attacked. I am 35yrs old & I haven’t felt “free” from my own thoughts since about 26yrs old. I desperately want to be free & Dr. Martha may have just unlocked that possibility for me.
I tried the sensory imagery mechanism and my anxiety today just went “poof” heart stopped racing, head pressure was lifted, butterflies in stomach went away. Then I started crying uncontrollably because I felt safe. No amount of breathing exercises has ever helped me. But this, gave me immediate relief.
Steven, I appreciate your vulnerability in your childlike participation of the mini exercises she led you into, like settling anxiety and where you felt it in your chest. For viewers who have never been in the presence of a therapist, I think this is helpful modeling. 🙏
On another topic, I remember my son at 4yo with a crayon behind his ear…proudly & confidently proclaiming “ I’m an artist!”
Unfortunately, it didn’t take long for school to suppress the natural creativity in order to serve the left brain. He’s a mathematics major, & my hope is that somewhere in his life he can integrate and express both sides. Thanks for the interview!
