67 | Mastering Your Mind: Breaking Free from Judgmental Chatter with | Richard Waldman

Dr. Brooks Demming Season 7 Episode 12

Ever feel trapped by that relentless, judgmental voice in your head? In this transformative conversation, Richard Waldman, retired Army veteran, author, and clinical pastor, unveils his revolutionary "Order to Life Circle" framework that's changing how people manage their inner critics and reclaim their mental freedom.

Richard's journey from accountant to spiritual teacher reveals how discovering your true calling can transform not just your life, but the lives of everyone around you. "If you bring out what is within you, what you bring out will save you. If you do not bring out what is within you, what you do not bring out will destroy you," he shares, drawing from ancient wisdom that resonates powerfully today.

At the heart of Richard's teaching lies a profound truth: we cannot experience negative emotions without first judging something or someone. This judgmental mindset, what he calls the "serpent" in our psyche, keeps us bouncing between anxiety about the future and regrets about the past, preventing us from experiencing the only moment that truly exists: the present.

Through vivid stories and practical insights, Richard explains how awareness, presence, conscious choice, and connection form the foundation of mental resilience. He challenges us to recognize that "if you're doing what you love, there's no such thing as failure" only opportunities to realign with our true purpose. His approach bridges spiritual teachings with practical psychology, offering tools that work regardless of your faith background.
