Mindsip insights from this episode:
Motivate change using the ABC loop: apologize, ask, brainstorm
To help someone change, use the "ABC loop": Apologize for any pressure you've applied, Ask open-ended questions about how they feel, and then Brainstorm solutions together.
Harness calmness to gain power in group dynamics
In any group dynamic, the most calm and grounded person has the most power because their non-reactivity disrupts the dysfunctional patterns everyone else is playing into.
Rejuvenate skin with Bon Charge red light mask in 10 minutes daily
The Bon Charge red light face mask uses red and near-infrared light for just 10 minutes a day to rejuvenate your skin at a cellular level.
Redirect your power to control your responses, not others
The feeling of being overwhelmed comes not from a lack of power, but from misdirecting your power by trying to control other people instead of your own responses.
Refocus on what you can control: your thoughts, actions, and feelings
After saying "let them" to detach, you must say "let me" to refocus your time and energy on the only things you can control: your thoughts, actions, and feelings.
Empower yourself by choosing to "let them" instead of "let go"
Unlike the phrase "let it go," which can feel defeating and powerless, saying "let them" makes you feel like you are actively taking your power back.
Utilize 'Let Them' theory to cultivate emotional detachment
The 'Let Them' theory works because the feeling of superiority it creates helps you detach from your emotions and rise above a situation you can't control.
View adults as 8-year-olds to foster compassion
Viewing every adult as an 8-year-old in a big body allows you to see their challenging behavior as an underdeveloped coping mechanism, which fosters compassion instead of fear.
