Episode 4 of The Empower Energy Technique (EET) Healing Series: Stop Whipping Yourself to Get Tasks Done

Today's recording walks you through the Empower Energy Technique (EET) to help you address the habit of bossing yourself around to get tasks done. It was an EET template used during one of my sessions with a patient that I think many people would benefit from healing within themselves.Many struggle with attention, focus, and organization long before being diagnosed with a mental health problem. That's because these functions are often the most sensitive to stress and show up long before depression, bipolar disorder, or psychosis appears.Performance suffers when underlying causes of mental illness cripples executive functions. In response to disappointing academic or work performance, people often develop a habit of whipping or berating themselves to accomplish tasks.This process often starts early in life during school and continues for the rest of one's life. Of course, this inner, negative dialogue makes life and work even more unpleasant and onerous. Self-esteem dwindles and self-hatred becomes the norm. If you find yourself caught in this habit, this EET technique walks you through a healing template to restore your ability to accomplish tasks with self-compassion, joy, and excitement rather than fear and self-doubt. I hope you'll find the session helpful!Support the showTo sustain my work as a holistic psychiatrist and support my efforts to improve psychiatric treatment for all through my podcasts, articles, website, and YouTube channel, please show your appreciation and help champion holistic psychiatry by clicking HERE to contribute!Click here to listen to all of The Holistic Psychiatrist Podcast episodesContact here to email Dr. Lee directly.
