In my 30s and 40s...

• My mind was a maze.
• I made reckless choices.
• Anxiety trapped me for years.

Then, I read Martin Heidegger's philosophies, and it became impossible to be trapped, stressed, and anxious.

Here's his 4-step protocol to unlocking mental freedom: 🧵 - Freud saw anxiety as repressed conflict.
- Jung saw it as the shadow pressing for recognition.

Both believed anxiety signals something deeper.

But Heidegger went further...

Your anxiety didn't start at 35.

It comes from your mother’s trembling hands when you were 2.

Here are 5 ways to know if your anxiety started when you were a toddler.👇
Toddlers don’t need words to absorb trauma.

They inherit it through gestures, gazes, and tone of voice.

A sigh of despair.
Averted eyes.
A frozen body.

These are messages--and strong ones--toddler's read, "the world is unsafe."

Harvard taught me how to treat the mind.

But the Dalai Lama taught me how to listen to it.

One encounter changed everything I knew about anxiety and fear.

Here's the ancient wisdom Western medicine is hiding from you—and why so many healing methods fail: 🧵

I earned my PhD at 32.

And I did my postdoc at Harvard.

I knew the science. I had the credentials.

But something in my soul still felt tense, fragmented, incomplete...

Your brain was NEVER designed for modern-day Western society.

As a Harvard-trained psychologist, here are 5 reasons why you can't:

-Sleep
-Overthink
-And, feel exhausted.

Read this NOW if you want to be free....🧵 Anxiety isn’t a “disorder.”

It’s a powerful signal meant to wake you up from the hypnotic trance of modern-day living.

It’s telling you that you’ve drifted away from your true self and what it means to be truly human.

If you think you have Trauma, science says it didn't start with you.

Unhealed trauma doesn't just disappear—it gets passed down through DNA as self-sabotage, cycles of failure, and toxic relationships.

Here's what science says about generational trauma (and how to break the cycle):
First, what is inherited trauma?

It’s the psychological and biological footprint of your family’s unresolved trauma.

It's passed down through generations as unexplained health issues, anxiety, and emotional stuckness.
Here's where it gets interesting...

I'm a Harvard-trained psychologist who works with ultra-successful high-net-worth individuals...

And I hate to break it to you, but the cost of overthinking and anxiety is the life you could have lived.

Here's the protocol I created that actually works: 🧵
Most of my clients are accomplished professionals — dentists, doctors, and company founders with impressive careers.

Despite their success, they struggle with overthinking and procrastination. They can't seem to shake it.

But why?

"Some people die at 25 and aren't buried until 75." Benjamin Franklin

Most are walking-dead:

• Stuck in your parents' dream
• Lost in soulless jobs
• Tangled in traumas

If this is you, here are Carl Jung's 7 laws for finding your purpose:

1/ Your Purpose Is Expiring Soon. Carl Jung identified 2 distinct life phases:

- 1st half: Build your life, achieve goals, establish identity
- 2nd half: Find meaning, integrate shadow, seek wholeness

Many midlife crises occur when people cling on for too long.

Lucian Freud didn’t just paint people.

He entered their psyche.

Here’s the untold story of Freud’s great-grandson...

And, what he reveals about your anxiety...🧵
Born in 1922, Lucian Freud inherited

Sigmund Freud's passion for emotions and the unconscious.

But he chose NOT to study people in the consulting room.

He chose to paint them in his studio.

You don't have a "change is hard" problem.

You have a comfort problem.

As a Harvard-trained psychologist, I've found most people would rather stay miserable than feel temporarily uncomfortable.

Here's the science behind why you're stuck (and how to break free):
Your brain is literally wired to keep you stuck.

Status Quo Bias makes you overestimate the pain of change and underestimate your ability to adapt.

Researchers Samuelson & Zeckhauser found we'll choose familiar misery over unfamiliar possibility every single time.

I'm a Harvard-trained psychologist

When I finished my Ph.D, I traveled to Tibet to fulfill my dream of crossing the Himalaya

After years of working with the Tibetan and Dalai Lama, I've collected some timeless wisdom the West has forgotten.

These 5 ideas will change your life: I worked for the Dalai Lama, advocating for Tibetans through Amnesty International.

I also met my husband at Tibet House NYC, and a Rinpoche blessed our union in our backyard.

The Tibetans have a special place in my heart.

Here're 5 valuable lessons they've taught me:

I'm a 63-year-old Harvard psychologist who studied consciousness with the Dalai Lama.

After 40 years treating patients, I finally understood something profound:

Your imagination is the ultimate solution to your anxiety, stress and depression.

THREAD 🧵
"Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world."

— Albert Einstein

As a Harvard psychologist who worked with the Dalai Lama, I learned…

Why, despite horrendous traumas, the Tibetans are immune to anxiety, chronic stress, and the depression epidemics...

Here's the ancient wisdom Western medicine is hiding from you:

THREAD
Mental illness is a silent killer in Western society:

• 78% report daily anxiety.
• 1 in 3 are chronically lonely.
• Depression tripled since 2020.

These trends are mostly in young adults (18-29) and the elderly (65+).

They are staggering.

The most glorified and encouraged mental illness millions are suffering:

Chronic Lying.

It's literally destroying your brain, relationships, and even causing Alzheimer's.

Here's the science behind humanity's favorite addiction: 🧵 First, let's be clear what lying actually is.

A lie isn't just an untruth.

For centuries, people taught their children the earth was the center of the universe. That wasn't a lie—they believed it.

For something to be a lie, you must KNOW it's false.

The most dangerous, oddly glorified, yet overlooked problem in the world:

Chronic Procrastination.

It's why you're stressed, anxious, depressed, and your immune system is in chaos.

Here's Andrew Huberman's 7-step protocol to escape the prison of procrastination: 🧵 First, let's understand what's really happening in your brain.

Procrastination isn't laziness or weakness.

It's a dopamine problem.

Huberman discovered that without sufficient baseline dopamine, you literally CAN'T feel motivated—no matter how hard you try.

The most powerful experiment about the human mind:

The Skinner Box.

It's the true root cause why 97% of people are anxious, depressed and feel trapped in life...

Here's how to tell if you're like this rat and a 5-step protocol to break free today: 🧵 B.F. Skinner arrived just before WWII with a radical claim:

Emotions and inner experience were irrelevant to science.

To him, you had no free will—just programmed responses, listen to this:

Your doctor won't tell you this about anxiety, stress, and depression...

They are not a brain problem. It's not a mental health issue.

It's your GUT-MIND connection.

Here are 5 ways to stop your gut from sabotaging your mental health (backed by science): 🧵 First, meet your "second brain":

Your gut contains 100 million nerve cells - as many as your spinal cord.

This massive neural network controls not just digestion, but your emotions, stress levels, and even decision-making.

Scientists call it your "enteric nervous system."

The Native Americans had a word that could heal anxiety naturally:

"Hakomi"

In 1970, Ron Kurtz turned this ancient wisdom into one of the most powerful therapy methods ever.

Here's the protocol: 🧵
While psychiatrists were prescribing pills for anxiety in the 1970s, Ron Kurtz made a radical discovery:

The body holds trauma that talk therapy can't touch.

His search for answers led him to Native American healing traditions.

I'm 63.

I'm a Harvard-trained psychologist who works with ultra-successful individuals...

And I hate to tell you, but the cost of overthinking and anxiety is the life you could have lived.

Here's the 3-step protocol that actually works: 🧵
Procrastination...

It's not laziness. It's dopamine desensitization.

Your brain needs increasingly intense stimulation to feel rewarded.

That's why checking email feels better than deep work.

And why can't you focus without your phone buzzing nearby?

Modern therapy is built on a 17th-century lie...

Philosopher Descartes said: 'I think, therefore I am.'

But Vico said: "Imagination creates reality."

As a psychologist who spent over 40 years to healing the mind, here's what most therapists won't tell you: 🧵 For 400 years, Western culture has worshipped at the altar of Descartes.

"I think, therefore I am."

We've built therapy on this foundation: analyze your thoughts, understand your patterns, and think your way out.

But what if Descartes was catastrophically wrong?

No matter how much you spend on therapy and pills...

You're still anxious and stressed 24/7.

It's called "Self-Abandonment Syndrome" & millions suffer silently.

After 40 years of healing clients, here's what's happening & a 3-step protocol to unblock your mind: 🧵 Every time you hesitate before speaking your truth, it's not shyness.

Your nervous system is protecting you from an ancient wound. In my practice, I see this pattern daily.

Your body remembers when authenticity meant losing love.

When I was young...

My mind was a prison.
I made horrible decisions.
Anxiety trapped me for years.

Then, I found Søren Kierkegaard's teaching, and it became impossible to be trapped, stressed, or anxious.

Here's his 4-step protocol to unlocking mental freedom: 🧵- At age 21, Kierkegaard watched his 5th sibling die.

By 30, he was engaged to the love of his life and set to become Denmark's most prominent theologian.

Then he did something that stunned Copenhagen society...
