Creating Emotional Stability with Jay Fields (re-release)

In this episode, we discuss the challenge many smart, sensitive individuals face: overthinking and maladaptive patterns due to deeply ingrained relational conditioning and unconscious stress responses. Joining us is Jay Moon Fields, a renowned educator, coach, and author, who introduces her innovative Yours Truly™ program. It combines embodiment, neuroscience, and psychoeducation to help people not just know better but actually do better, improving self-relation and interpersonal connections. Discover a transformative approach to overcoming these common yet complex issues, fostering healthier relationships with both oneself and others. UPDATED LINK: https://jaymoonfields.com/ UPDATED BIO: Jay Moon Fields, M.A. is a leading educator, coach and author. Over a half million people have taken her courses featured on Linkedin Learning, and her book Teaching People Not Poses has sold over ten thousand copies and is used by yoga teacher training programs globally. For over twenty years, she has taught the principles of embodied social and emotional intelligence to individuals and groups from Patagonia, Weiden + Kennedy, Apple, the UN, UC Santa Barbara, and Cottage Hospital. Jay has been a guest on over 30 podcasts and was named one of the top 50 health and wellness bloggers making a difference in the world by Greatist.com. Jay has been a featured speaker at GoPro, Baker Tilly, The Fifteen Seconds Festival and the Omega Institute. She received her BA in Psychosocial Health and Human Movement from the College of William and Mary and her masters in Integral Transformative Education from Prescott College. WHAT IS YOURS TRULY? Yours Truly™ is a comprehensive online program that blends the principles and evidence-based practices of nervous system regulation, embodiment and psychoeducation to help you learn how to not just know better, but actually do better when it comes to relating to yourself and others in a healthy way. It consists of 50 short videos and a 45-page workbook that anyone can do from anywhere at their own pace. WHAT PROBLEMS DOES YOURS TRULY FIX? Smart, sensitive people almost always try to fix the stuff that feels crappy in their life by thinking (usually overthinking) about it, even though it doesn’t work. That’s because, despite intellectually knowing better, they’re being run by the unconscious stress responses of their nervous system and by deeply embodied but fatally flawed relational conditioning. This conditioning leads them to do things like take care of others at their own expense, or push people away when what they really want is closeness, or to never really feel at home in their own skin. Yours Truly is embodiment meets neuroscience meets an empathetic guide who’s been there and come through the other side—so that smart, sensitive people can finally get the training they need to have more control over how they show up and more closeness in the relationships that matter most to them.

Remi endured Hell Week twice due to a medical roll back. As a SEAL he was eventually deployed to Iraq. Remi found God - learned to meditate - and now works as an actor and filmmaker in Hollywood with Michael Bay.
