Psychiatrist Achieves Nervous System Reset and Resolves Decades of Persistent Irritability

My name is Dr. Mark Braunstein. And I'm shooting this video because for the past five years, I've been struggling with irritability, anger, resentment, and depression. I've tried many modalities and haven't figured out how to get past them. I came here as a consultant, and I'm leaving as a very satisfied client. And now I'm excited because I get to live life with a new possibility, a new excitement, and draw to be about the future, that the way it's been isn't the way it has to be. To wake up without anger, irritability, and resentment. And I'm also excited that if I do wake up with them I've got some skills to turn it around really quickly and abort that chilling state. I highly recommend 40 Years of Zen, because it can change your life. Before attending 40 Years of Zen, my life was full. My life was great, my life was exciting, full career, family life, and love life. But I was suffering from irritability and anger in the mornings sometimes and harboring resentment and anger and waking up like that sometimes, angry. And I've done a lot of work. I was psychiatrists, been doing this work for a long time. And this was something that I could not figure out. No matter, I've done a lot of psychedelic work and a lot of integration, I just couldn't figure out how to move past that sticking point. What made me appreciate the program the most were the skills of my facilitator. The safe container, it was created by my facilitator and the rest of the staff, the wonderful cohort that I was in. The group process was amazing. The professionalism the environment, the atmosphere, the food that we ate this week also was an incredible part of it that I hoped to carry on some lifestyle changes. I'm excited about being less resentful, less angry, and living with more love and with a more open heart. Yeah, I'm excited about seeing my life not as a story of traumas and the burden that I carry because of my traumas, but to see my traumas as a gift and to have gratitude for everything I've experienced. Because I have gratitude and love and appreciation for who I am right now. What shifted the most for me was my nervous system, I feel like I've had a reset of my nervous system and I feel like that is continuable. I have less anxiety, that's a pretty huge eternal gift. I'm going to feel less of what I don't want to feel, which will allow me more space to feel what I do want to feel and will have the people around me vibing better because radiance that I have. I don't want to bring down my son, I don't want to bring down my wife, I want to be as present for them as I am for my clients. My biggest takeaway would be gratitude for everything that's happened in my life. The main reason I would recommend 40 Years of Zen to others is because with the combination of their psychotherapeutic techniques and barrel feedback, I've seen changes in myself and from talking to my cohorts that we haven't seen in decades of other work, so I saw this move the needle. I've been doing personal work and therapy at psychedelics for 30 years and there was something about this week that moved the needle on me the largest.
