The Emotional Cost Of Being A Deep Thinker - Dr K HealthyGamer 

Please bring on Vinay Prasad MD

Can't wait for the full episode! Great preview!

Will these be best viewed on a TV rather than phone/tablet?

Can’t wait till monday… looks superb

@@MMyL7 Ur moms a savage

It's amazing because I unintentionally started perfect stillness by the time you mentioned it and found myself finding joy/feeling stimulated with every breath before you mentioned it can feel like that. Thank you so much

Thank you for giving us real, practical advice 🙏

@HealthyGamerGG 😮😶😤🥵

Get out in front of it before the comments start pouring in... Any who ... The mind is the true playing field of life . We are all in our minds but we are all not in control of our minds therefore not in control of our thinking, which expels our behavior thereafter.

You’re the best!

Yes, it cracks me up! 😂😂

😂😂😂😆😁. Love it!

It's even better when you realise he kept doing it specifically to give Chris exposure therapy and find the reason why he wanted him to change back

His accent is always cracks me up because he plays into it 😂

His English accent sounds American, not British, to me.

"Don't feel the cancelation" just became iconic.

Best quote ever :)))

The cancellation is coming for u

Fear*

And casted a cinematic shadow on the people

High asf lmao

They probably hired a crew of monkeys

And cut off the jungle sounds

Finally, someone else is connecting the dots 😂. 👍🏻

How do you get a production studio in the top of the trees of a jungle?

@@-Believeinyourself- it is a studio, they are indoors.

@@iamalimba bruh…

Was going to comment on this, that's the BEST setup I've seen for a podcast yet, what a setup!

Just found him and his content is perfect for someone like me, a young learn hungry male who cant get enough of education and knowledge to the point where its depressing to think about not being able to learn everything and keep on learning for eternity

If you hungry go eat a burger ​@@Ju-Peter667

​​@@Ju-Peter667 As I'm sure you're already aware, it's important to take time out for yourself and sit with the things you learn and thoughts as they talked about. Its something I struggle with as someone with ADHD. I set a weekly reminder to sit with myself for an hour that I keep ignoring/snoozing. But after this, I'm excited to sit and just hang out with me. Good luck to you too!

I predict some will get mad at me for saying this but sometimes Dr K just seems to come up with explanations or solutions to things instead of having real knowledge. If you can speak in a certain way and make the thing seem plausible enough, people will buy your explanations. If you go to almost any psychology department to talk with the scientists about the issues of self-awareness, you'll get quite likely as many explanations or views as there are people working there. These are vague issues still unsettled in the science and I wish people were a little bit more skeptical when someone (even a professional) gives definitive answers as if the answer was obvious. As a professional myself there are many times I would have an issue with what Dr K is saying, but he is usually in a position of authority. It's easier to convince an audience of laypeople than to pursue a career where you have to convince those who are your peers.

@@Minisynapse You're not wrong but I think since he's primarily speaking to a large audience, he's gonna generalize a bit. He is (was?) a practicing psychologist. He's done live streams where he is talking to streamers/youtubers and is very different in his responses and nuanced.

He's not the first to do it but definitely reaching a new audience!

No. He is wrong about many important things and is pushing pseudo science. It gets me angry to see him misleading so many people.

@@ZM-dm3jg….yeah I agree with you actually, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about, he’s coming at this from a completely intellectual perspective and not from direct knowledge. Right at the start he talks about “controlling your awareness” and went down hill from there.

@ZM-dm3jg @cspace1234nz I don't get what you mean? Controlling awareness is a thing. There is a lot of science backing up Directing your awareness on certain things (intero/exteroception, mindfulness) . Also yoga techniques and these neurological phenomena have been backed up by science. It makes sense that people have been using them for thousands of years. Because they work. what's pseudo science about that?

@@yannwnnd …nope. whatever that is is not awareness.

Great comment

Absolute legend

Yeah not just his accent. He talks like a guru too. He has some useful things to say but still I'm weary of the conviction with which he makes his claims.

Not really. Their voices are quite different

@@jozefwoo8079That’s because you’ve never tried anything he talks about, or talked to anyone in the community who has, or seen the research they’ve done on their modules

Dr K has been using this on his membership videos. Maybe he gave Chris some tips.

where is the full video?

Where is the full video? Is not scheduled to get uploded next week?

Where is the full video?

british english?

He prefers to be called Mr. Gamer

Well. I assent to listen to Dr. K's accent be British or Indian. But the rolling r thing is a hoot! I've always loved that.

You're right. that happened. 2:35>>> Crazy!!!

He's got an American accent.

Close! Stray Vista Studios in Austin Tx ;)

Are you a Sri Lankan? If so, hello!... I do the same damn thing. lol

I see that you are always tending to your mind garden. That’s great.

I’m sorta the same way. I like my time with myself, and yet I often worry about having few if any friends. Sometimes, I wish every everybody would leave me alone but other times I wish I had someone to share with. I talked with a friend about this once. Some people need to spend more time alone, but I need to get out a little more :P

@@rike4706 I am the same way. I love being social but I NEED my alone time. Just learn to embrace both it is all about the balance. ❤

I get the visceral hyper-awareness I didn't know that was what it was called I have fibromyalgia I have essential tremor I've got obsessive thoughts and they are scary it is scary to me out of control no matter how many times it's happened because each time is a new time. But it is good to know that I'm not alone in feeling this way. So yeah it's good to know.

This

Spent a significant portion of my life trying to appease a schizophrenic mother. Who was never satisfied with anything I did. Always constantly telling me I don't appreciate her and I'm exploiting her. You know a teenager that lived with his parent depended on them.

You are not hypersensitive by default. There is a reason you are hypersensitive to something, anything. If we take your example, 'a parent who tells you that you do not care enough' Our parents can be wise teachers, and they can sometimes be wrong. Or they can sometimes be repetitive or hurtful even when telling the truth. Sit and rest on these thoughts. Breath and focus on your hypersensitivity, let your emotions wash over you and accept the situation for what it is, your life, your parents, their judgements of you, your so called not caring enough, now back to the breath, breath in, breath out, and notice that life is okay, that no matter what happens in life you have can breathe and find peace in your self.

Could be part of an attachment disorder.

@@seemlesslies I know that, it caused an attachment disorder in me which has poisoned all of my relationships

can't believe you're here. and there's no replies. the setup is so visually aesthetic ,i've not seen anything like it

Bahaha best reply…then I noticed who said it. Right on Cole-we need to get you interviewed by Dr K.

​@@camtons2606is it a projection or a real window?

Eskimo Brothers!!!

Why equate your sexual drive to aesthetic pleasure? Or vice versa? What does that lead to? It is the most relaxing podcast setup I have ever seen. It’s inspired by Zen artwork I think, because of the misty hill in the center background

Cool story.

@Devonpinky09 Is this sarcasm?

….yeah and about how he switches from one accent to another

Because knowledge brings responsibility. Learn as much as your mind can feasibly deal with.

HEY!! i've recently discovered too, i was chronically under consuming salt and i started taking a liquid iodine supplement, live changing.

Pink himalayan sea salt works great for me.

@@Photik Yes I use that 💯

How did you find this out?

@@johntwohill801 I had a hair mineral test done showing my sodium reserves were effectively zero and my naturopath did the math on my diet and discovered I wasn't even meeting the minimum RDA of sodium. I cook nearly all of our meals and we don't eat junk food so it's hard to get enough unless I'm intentional about it.

Its called aspect ratio and has nothing to do with quality.

Exactly. I've devoted a lot of time recently to contemplating what is and isn't in my control. And then letting go of the things that are outside of my control. When you really apply this the reduction in anxiety is unbelievable. I have a long way to go but even the early results are worthwhile.

@@wallywest2360do you journal? what’s your process for finding these things and being productive with this?

@mclainv A good advice is to read Marcus Aurelius Meditations, he was amongst others inspired by Epictetus and Stoicism. Or start by reading a bit Epictetus. 👍

⁠journaling does help me for sure. I meditate and journal while also gaming a bit to get some hand eye coordination in too. 20 years ago it was parties and concerts. Then it stopped. My mind needed that constant stimulation which led to what they’re talking about.

You're mixing up two different things. You can be 100% control of your life instead of being a slave of desires. However, you CAN'T control of the outcome of your actions, as Epicetus said.

Can’t wait for your podcast!!! 😈
