I wrestled in high school. Though an aggressive sport which pits one man against another in a battle of strength, stamina, and technique, very few accidents and injuries ever occurred during the six years I participated. On the rare instances when they did, wrestling tournaments always stopped....

You might have listened to the previous talk and thought, “Oh. He just inferred we can easily rewrite the script- that if we don’t like the story we’re living, we can just sprinkle in some new characters, change the scenery, add a few power-ups, and then move forward.”

A few talks ago, we discussed perception- and how that perception often becomes our reality if we’re not careful to separate what we think we see from what we actually see (we discussed perception vs. reality at www.Jenkins.tv/blog/perception.). Then we discussed internal rules-...

In January 2019 I wrote Emotional Wholeness Checklist, a book about feelings and the importance of recognizing them in ourselves. The premise is this: all of our feelings- both the ones we typically consider to be “good” and those we often consider to be “bad”- are...

Emotional health (in fact, health in general) isn’t so much about what’s wrong with us as it is about what’s right- and walking into what’s even better. In our medically-driven, diagnosis-prone Western world we’ve been conditioned to look at problems rather than...

When you get to the place Eminem found himself in that film I referenced in our intro, you can be bold. When you realize your...

Last Fall I did something I never imagined I would do: I took a psychological evaluation. A full one. The kind that has hundreds of questions followed by a sit-down interview with a licensed psychologist. 

To say it another way, I voluntarily took one of those tests that cost several...

In this talk we build on the previous two, so you may want to roll back to the discussion on PTSD ( https://www.Jenkins.tv/blog/wholeness ) or even the intro to emotions in general ( https://www.Jenkins.tv/blog/baggage ) if you haven’t yet listened to those.

Here, I discuss Moral Injury- a...

In this talk we take last week’s release a step further (review here: https://www.Jenkins.tv/blog/baggage). I pulled the content from this talk from some info I planned to teach to a live audience re: emotional wholeness…

Emotional Health = part of total health
