Great video - thank you
Color (of walls, etc,) changes depending on the light in the room. You either have a color changing bulb somewhere, or your camera is constantly refocusing as you move and the light behind you affects the wall color. The wall color shifts betwee tan and shades of light blue... distracting to say the least. Just a good example of how a person (me) can quickly see, diagnose and offer a solution to another...and hardly ever for myself. LOL
Thanks for the feedback (I hadn't seen the color changes), and more importantly, the vulnerable thoughtful reflection that is a great example of ownership!
I have done research and come to the conclusions you express. Early non physical (mental) childhood trauma set me on a lifetime path of negativity and feeling 'not good enough'. Anxiety, depression and ADHD compounded issues. Putting these concepts into practice has, in the past, come up against a solid wall of imprinted subconscious resistance. Despite much good progress, I am still blocked from my birthright state of mental stability and resilience. I am open to all the guidance I can get...and will finish this video and concentrate on practicing at least one of your suggested 'skills'. To do more than that at the same time becomes overwhelming and I just quit. Very glad to see you came through your troubles is such good shape. Subscribed.
Bravo! I really appreciate the practice of taking one thing on, and knowing yourself enough to know what works for you. And that awareness of the resistance is a huge step, coming from someone who was long-entrenched in my own version of it. All the best!
Thank you. I could practice accepting the experience or emotion I’m having, and also being courageous. But when someone isn’t fulfilling their promise/word (for example, not sending enough spousal support as promised), I feel Iike it is about that other person. Am I wrong?
Great question and sharing, thank you! We could say the situation definitely originates from the other person and it is, in fact, a highly infuriating one at that! First, when we accept the experience of anger, become clear what it is about, then soften into it, we can become clear on the appropriate actions for us to take. Then, and this is the secret key, the more we can transform that experience of anger/irritation into something more helpful like clarity, strength, fortitude, and empowerment we free ourselves from the shackles of circumstance creating us, and we start to create circumstance.
@@jonathan_mitchell Thank you for your thoughtful answer. I will try it.
Thank you, definitely needed to hear this today! Thank you for sharing ! 😇
I'm so glad it was helpful for you. 🧡

Too Good 💎 Could you suggest some best books to read for becoming competent and confident in our work field without being stuck at mediocrity or overthinking..
Of course! The best book I've ever read in this genre is: a.co/d/3I7N4Zy
This is great ... So true! ✨️🙏🏼
Thanks so much!
I'm 26 and have been lonely my ENTIRE life.. Even as a child, I'm just now starting to understand why I was so lonely and never have been happy (through therapy) That's not true. I was happy for the 4 years I was with my ex girlfriend. The feeling of not being loved while you still love the other person is also quite tough.
It's true. Those moments are real opportunities to explore deeper aspects of ourselves that often live out of our conscious reach. I've found when I bring the "light" of my awareness to those beliefs and experiences, deep transformation is available.
just found you through this video, you are truly amazing and so underrated!!! your message was very clear and very relatable I will definitely watch every video.
Wow, so touching, thank you. I do all I can to offer anything that could be of service!
Helpful ty ☺️
Intend, breathe & act 🤍🧘🏻♀️💃
Belgium 😻
OK, this is a new way of looking at this for me. I’ll try it.
Feel free to let me know how it goes!
You have such good energy!
Thanks so much - so kind!
Loved this video. I just need to pin down the changes i really want to make.
Fantastic, go for it.
I love this!!
Awesome!
I very much resonate with this - the bit about the mindset in particular.!I’m off to put this into action.
Fantastic! So inspiring!
I appreciate how you say to become aware, not with an intensity but with a relaxed gaze, a contemplation. Coming from a family that looks for things intensely, this gentle guidance is useful to me, to relax my approach in thinking about things.
Yes, if we become aware of "how we are becoming aware" - meaning, what is driving our contemplation, it will further the insight we get from our search.
Great methods! The last one was unexpected. It gave me a chuckle… but I can see how this could work… Another chuckle… 😁
Right? The "method" gives a visceral experience of "releasing" hehe, but works!
@@jonathan_mitchell, I suppose we experiment with different ways of letting things pass through us, learning from what is passing through us, and letting things go. Learning how to get go of my husband’s passing (with love and care for myself and others), and learning more about the common humanity, and how to be of service to others is what I am doing every day. It doesn’t matter how much time it takes. We do things at our own pace.
Wonderfully said!
Excellent advice, ty
Wish you had zoom or email we could reach you on.. I have a therapist but I wanted your opinion on a few things
Thanks for your interest. Feel free to reach me through my website: www.jonathan-mitchell.live/
I love your videos. I'm trying to figure out what my limits are!
How blessed am I to receive this message. Thank you dearest Kim, all my love to you.
Thank you!🙏💫
Glad you enjoyed!
There is a book called "Addicted to Unhappiness" by two psychologists and psychotherapists, Martha Heineman Pieper and William Joseph Pieper who talks about that attachment to suffering you were experiencing.
I have researched and found that your youtube channel videos are not in youtube search results, your videos need youtube video seo to get search results
I am going to join you on this journey of challenging ourselves every day. Thank you for the inspiration. ☀️
Fantastic!
While being adept at emotional maturity during hard times is well adaptive, i believe, that some "mentally ill" people will thrive. Those who are labeled as mentally ill and will thrive, imo, in part, will be those who can compartmentalize their feelings. I believe that current mental health professionals call that repression. I call that an advantage in certain stimuli. Hard 'folk' for hard times. There's a reason why the Machiavellian principle pervades. It's not pretty, but that's the difference between the Chimpanzee and the Bonobo.
Thank you for sharing your perspective. 🙏🏼
Thank you Jonathan.
Appreciate your insight & videos 🤍
I'm really glad. 🙏🏼
This was very helpful.. Put a new perspective on things for me. Thank you.
Fantastic 🙏🏼
What a challenge for an aries.....surrender....giving up....yes I agree but it is a challenge....
Yes, it definitely can be...🙏🏼
As someone who’s been on the reactionary side of the emotional spectrum my entire life, this video gave me a lot of peace and hope for the future. Thank you. ❤️
This is so touching, all my care to you.
Another wonderful contribution, Jonathan!! Even in the wee hours!! Thanks! This sounds similar to Radical Acceptance and to the concept of the Primitive Brain/Conscious Brain. I like the idea of surrender and acceptance. I'm working with a Somatic Therapist and I'm learning to think in terms of "parts" of myself, like what you mention here. It's new and a challenge to picture those parts in my mind. Thanks for putting this out. If you have any more thoughts on the actual "doing" of this I'm all ears. Thanks again, you're fantastic!!!
Thank you dearest Cindy. Great suggestion and all my best!
I clicked the like button but the number didn’t go up. I appreciate this video-I learned something new within the first 2 minutes:) Acceptance is a practice and I could use help getting used to
I'm so glad!
The idea of being attached to your struggles really resonates with me. I seem to feel most satisfied, most at home, in the painful vicious thought/feeling cycle inside my brain. I cannot enjoy accomplishments or successes for more than a moment or 2, then it's right back to the general resentment of life and the world, despite my very positive circumstances. I ask myself "What is it that I WANT? Why do I always return to the struggle so quickly after the wonderful breaks form it?" There's definitely a kind of sick satisfying attachment to the wrenching suffering. It reaches deep inside and scratches a core itch like nothing else ever has. It perpetuates because I don't believe the itch (the emotional need) will ever find healthy fulfillment. It's just beyond my reach. There's those limiting beliefs right there. I LOVE the concept "There's A Gift Inside the Suffering. It's calling for more creativity." When it's put that way, I think I can DO that!! You're fantastic, Johathan!! You're spot-on!!!!! I'll be checking in regularly to see what you're putting out there. Thanks so much!!
What a powerful, vulnerable sharing - so articulate and courageous. Bravo! 🧡
Beautiful. Thank you. ❤❤❤
It is such an honor, thank you. 🙏🏼
Congrats on your healing 🙏 🤲
Very soothing.. thank you..God Bless you..😊 ptojection cannot live with connection ...nice
Yikes no. I've heard this theory that people get addicted to negative feelings. Maybe for some, but when you have clinical depression, it just something you'd rather not have. I have non depressed times, and I would take that over the dungeon any old day.
I wish there was a way to connect with you.. appreciate your encouraging videos. Just feeling extremely overwhelmed rn & would like some advice
This is awesome 😊
Thank you! 🧡
Here's a conversation I had with my parents when I was about 15. That's when I decided that talking to them, unless I _really_ needed to, was pointless. Me: "What's the time?" Parent: "Why are you asking? Why do you want to know? I know! You want to go to (that place we disapprove of) with those people (we disapprove of, don't like, aren't good enough...). Well no. You can't go." Me: "I just wanted to watch something on the telly." Moral: if you're going to jump straight to ridicule, straw man arguments and judgements, don't be surprised if your children are unwilling to communicate with you.
Agreed @lesleyvivien2876. Our unconscious (or conscious) judgments repel any possibility of meaningful connection.
@@jonathan_mitchell Thank you. I don't know what it was about me sitting reading a book that made them think I was getting ready to go out! And I still don't know what was so hard about just telling me what the time was. It was a couple of lifetimes ago, but the frustration lives on.
😊 good for you 👍 The body is brief+transitory. It's wise to develop that which is not.
Agreed, as amorphous as it may be, that unseen aspect of ourselves holds the potential to create massive fulfillment when we form a relationship with it.
Thank you very much ❀ ❤︎
It is such an honor. 🙏
