Changeable Podcast

In the Old Paradigm, it looks like we have problems that need fixing. Problems that are special and unique to us; different from everyone else’s problems.In the New Paradigm, we see that’s not the case.We’re all the same and what we’re up against is all the same.Sometimes that’s clear. Most of the time, especially early on as we’re exploring this understanding, it’s not clear at all. We want to our problem discussed; our troubles addressed.Listen to how this recently came up in The Little School of Big Change and what an incredible group of people came to see.The post EP21: Your Problem isn’t Special (The one criticism I received in this run of The Little School of Big Change) appeared first on Dr. Amy Johnson.

In this episode, Natasha asks a very important question.Some might say it’s THE MOST important question. The only question we ever really need to ask.Who is it that’s aware?Listen in as Natasha Swerdloff and I discuss who is aware, and some other things that open the door to enormous change.You can read the amazing book Natasha co-wrote, Coming Home. And you can see more about her here. The post EP20: How Knowing Your True Nature Creates Change with Natasha Swerdloff appeared first on Dr. Amy Johnson.

In honor of US Thanksgiving this week, this episode explores how gratitude and contentment look from the New Paradigm.Because they look a bit different than in the Old Paradigm.The Old Paradigm is all about doing. Adding. Bringing in more of what we want.The New Paradigm acknowledges that nothing need be added. You are full of everything you want right now; things like gratitude and contentment are your nature, your default. They are there now, beneath your psychology.If it’s not clear what that means or why it matters, please give this episode a listen. And thank you. I am grateful that you’re here and that I get to share this with you.The post EP19: Gratitude and Contentment in the New Paradigm appeared first on Dr. Amy Johnson.

In this episode I talk with Rebecca Perkins and Bea Arscott, a mother and daughter duo who share this New Paradigm really beautifully…particularly with regard to their experience with anorexia.Several years ago, Bea was diagnosed with anorexia and struggled with that for many years. Which means Rebecca had her own struggle—a daughter with anorexia—for many years.What they’ve come to see about health and resilience and change is remarkable. They’ve written a book together about their journey called Recovery from Within: A Mother and Daughter’s Journey Through Anorexia.I hope you enjoy this conversation!The post EP18: Recovery from Within with Rebecca Perkins and Bea Arscott appeared first on Dr. Amy Johnson.

Do you know what your feelings are showing you?If they provide feedback that guides us through life, do you know how to read that feedback?The Old Paradigm had it wrong. It taught us to read our feelings in a way that actually isn’t accurate; a way that has created endless confusion and complication for people everywhere.Learn what the New Paradigm shows us about reading the feedback we’re getting.The post EP17: How Life is Providing Constant Feedback appeared first on Dr. Amy Johnson.

In this episode, I share Sherry’s story.Sherry experienced a lot of anxiety. And a lot of anxiety and fear of her anxiety.As she began to see more about who she really is and what her thoughts and feelings really are, she was far less afraid of her  feelings. Anxiety as a chronic, habitual condition can’t live in those fear-lacking conditions.The post EP16: The Anatomy of Anxiety appeared first on Dr. Amy Johnson.

In this episode of Changeable I talk with Annie Grace, author of This Naked Mind.Annie used to drink a lot, and now she doesn’t. It didn’t resonate with her to label herself an alcoholic or go to meetings and talk a lot about it (although those are helpful things to do for some people). Instead, Annie saw something about how her mind was tricking her into believing she needed–and even liked–alcohol.As Annie saw the truth about alcohol, the illusions began to melt away and she found she no longer craved it in the same way. Annie’s book This Naked Mind points to many of the same truths I share in the New Paradigm, without Annie knowing anything about the New Paradigm.If you’d like to see through an illusion in your life, I think you’ll love this conversation.The post EP15: How Alcohol Addiction is Changeable with Annie Grace appeared first on Dr. Amy Johnson.

In this episode, I clear up some confusion.You see, in the Old Paradigm in psychology, there is A LOT to do. It’s a full time job, turning thoughts around and breathing just so and riding waves of emotion…making sense of the past and meaning for the future, and processing…well, whatever people process.In the New Paradigm there isn’t anything you must do. But does that mean “don’t do anything?” Not exactly. Listen in to hear more. The post EP14: Is it Okay to Use Tools and Techniques? Or Am I Supposed to Do Nothing? appeared first on Dr. Amy Johnson.

My guest on today’s episode is Fernanda from Life on Tellus. Fernanda is classic high achiever, as you’ll hear from her shortly. She’s mastered many things in life and she’s just getting started.But all of that achievement used to look necessary, like it was what she had to do to be acceptable. And that came at a high cost, as you can imagine. For Fernanda, that cost took the form of stress, anxiety, depression, and long-time eating disorders.All of that changed when Fernanda came to see something about how she really works. She’s mastering as much as ever, but with far more ease and grace. Fernanda is a coach who works with High achievers so you can see more about her at https://lifeontellus.comEnjoy this conversation with Fernanda!The post EP13: How Achievement, Mastery, and Productivity go through the roof in The New Paradigm with Fernanda –Life on Tellus appeared first on Dr. Amy Johnson.

In this episode, I tell you about my favorite metaphor of all time. It’s an illustration that makes clear what I humbly believe…just may be…the MOST important thing you can ever, ever know.Intrigued? You should be! It’s seriously good stuff that will clarify a lot. This truth has been square one for freedom from all sorts of things for the people I work with.The post EP12: The Most Important Thing You Can Ever Know appeared first on Dr. Amy Johnson.
