Continuing from part one of Mark Divine’s deep dive into the Emotional Mountain (a crucial but often difficult to integrate tenet of Five Mountain Development), this episode of The Unbeatable Mind finds Mark examining the profound impact emotions have on physical and mental well-being.
From the complex interplay of emotions, mental processes, and physical states to a concept called The Default Mode Network (a key player in conditioned emotional responses), Mark leaves no stone unturned in his discussion of the most intricate of the Five Mountains. Struggling with how to identify and manage emotional patterns? Mark shares insightful strategies for how to do so—-like one he calls the ‘WIRM’ process. Additionally, he explores the psychological approaches of some of the most influential thinkers of all time, such as Freud, Jung, and Richard Schwartz. This is a deep dive that offers incredibly valuable perspectives on the ever-so-challenging process of emotional work.
Key Topics Include:
Embracing Courage & Transforming Fear: Learn how to identify and transform irrational fears, understand root emotions, and face challenges with a positive mindset
The WIRM Process: Understand Mark’s method for intercepting and redirecting fear loops into positive outcomes.
Making Friends With Emotions: Learn the art of accepting your feelings while maintaining self-compassion and courage.
