Summary

We will learn: How to unlock the power of flexibility and non-negotiable values in interpersonal situations The game-changing concept of "Zanshin" and why goals aren't everything The surprising secret to navigating life's ups and downs with ease Let’s face it: no matter how in tune you are with your emotions and spirituality, dealing with change can be tough. It’s somewhat smoother when you’re the one choosing the change, but even then, there are those little details that catch you off guard. Because here’s the thing. The only constant is change. Let that sink in. The only constant is change. Everything is always changing all the time. So why wouldn’t we try to get better at dealing with change? Our situations change, the world changes, our bodies change, people change, we change. In fact, everything is always cycling through states of order, disorder, and reorder. And that sounds a little overwhelming, but guess what? If this cycle wasn’t always occurring, nothing could get better either. So today we’re going to learn to navigate this cycle with a little more grace. Our guest is Brad Stuhlberg. He is the bestselling author of “Master of Change and The Practice of Groundedness.” He writes for The New York Times and is on faculty at the University of Michigan's Graduate School of Public Health.

Our amygdala is still really fine-tuned to go off and to put us in this super

0:16.2

instinctive emotional reactionary mode, even though most first world problems benefit from slowing down and being thoughtful from not just

0:24.5

running the other way or immediately fighting back but from engaging and from

0:29.3

discernment and from taking a few deep breaths. There's a scientific term called Amigdala Hijac,

0:34.6

which essentially is when we get into such a reactionary mode

0:37.1

that our Amigdala just like hijacks are being.

0:40.2

And this is when we act from a place of anger or fear, when we snap, when we do things in the moment that might feel really good, but very soon after we regret them and we feel really bad.

So the question isn't, how can we turn off the amygdala because we can't
