Hi Mayim, you crazily-gifted actress and intellectual maven. I love your work and pursuits; the first time I remember seeing you was in Beaches as that redhead little girl. You slayed it; you stole the movie. haha. Super glad to have happened on this your site just now. yet ANOTHER amazing pursuit of yours. Thanks for creating it. Here is my NDE recounting; albeit, it is lame compared to these others, but it is real, and I am blessed to have had the experience. It was 2013, and I was in the hospital, near death (had I gone to the ER two weeks later than I did, I would not be writing this now) due to a congenital liver condition that had never been caught, and another virus I had caught that combined and were killing me internally, yet I had NO symptoms for years until one day, they all manifested. I was in the hospital for about two and a half months. One day, about halfway through the hospital stay, when I was at my emotional lowest, wondering WHY GOD? WHY?, while I lay reading my latest Bette Davis biography (I know; how gay cliche, right??? I digress). I was stone sober, as in I was NOT full of drugs; in fact my entire stay was clean in that regard. It. was around noon or 1 pm ( I wanna say 12:30pm), and suddenly, the light in the room became SUPER bright and I knew IMMEDIATELY I was being visited by my MOM but she was with an angel. The angel was hilarious and made my laugh a lot while Mom, in spirit form, stood well behind the angel, just watching me intently. The angel told me after what seemed like minutes of us joking around, that "You can take a half day on this life and come home early. We gave you too much to handle." That is all he said. Without missing a beat, he said it again and in real immediate time, he let me know if I chose to leave, I would be gone within three years, and that everyone would be able to see my demise and say goodbye. I shook my head, and said ABSOLUTELY NOT! I agreed to come here to do something for God, and I will not let Him down bc doing so, means I let all those other souls down who I am supposed to connect with somehow. I am not going anywhere. I am staying here and living out my lifetime." In THAT moment, Mayim, my Mom smiled proudly at me, and I realized that this feeling in. my soul that I've had since I can remember about me being here bc of something God asked me was finally proven to me, AND, in that moment I decided to stay here, I told myself I would get healthy and be fine and live long. Here is is 2024, and I'm healthy as a horse, and am doing my best daily to live what the Divine sent me here to do. At times, I get fed up with all the lies of the Orange one and the MAGAts and all they are doing to other souls for no reason, and I get lonely often bc I am single, but I keep on bc of the Divine/God, and my Mom who I promised on her death bed to do this. My NDE, although occurring in a hospital room, was no less impactful and was full of light and a sense of peace and love I cannot quite explain that the angel and mom brought into the room. Please, everyone, treat each other with love and kindness and take care of your health.

My cousin Elizabeth! So proud. I love this podcast also btw..Such a fan.. xoxo

Your awesomeness Yes he's awesome 😊

Why why 11 children 😂

True

Her book was incredible

Impressive to see you refine your previous thoughts. Kudos! Let's not forget that love constructs do not just reflect women biology but also social and economic societal factors. Given your well-deserved privilege as a successful well-educated woman, you may be missing some points, beyond your addressed concerns about minorities that are not heterosexual. Love and intimacy is less and less related to reproduction only but to simply dealing with happiness in a more and more complex, unstable, stressful, economic environment imposed by a competitive Neo-liberal world order. When young people have limited job security, can no longer afford education or a rental without sharing its costs, they must change living arrangements to increase their sense of emotional and economic security. This leads to changing relationship patterns. Some are forced to re-discover the strengths provided by close-knit communal living. They move from a way of life driven by consumerism to planet-saving creative plural intimate relationships as a primary source of happiness and fulfillment. From egalitarian tribes to looser matriarchal order to oppressive structured patriarchal societies, love continues to evolve, but often as a consequence of imposed economic and societal patterns not just biological necessity. Non-mainstream lifestyles continue to be frown upon because they foster disruptive but beneficial new world orders.

There is theoretically a lot more emotional security in polyamory when you rely on a closely intimate team you can count on. In serial monogamy you are literally putting all your eggs in one basket. It puts you in an extremely vulnerable position for any unforeseen life event like someone dying on you or leaving (like you did). This may not be your concern, being successful and well educated but It is increasingly economically not viable in a Neo-liberal society where young people cannot even afford education or rented housing if not shared. Serial monogamy has become a luxury for a few, thanks to new economics. In Israel, kibbutzim were also a way to deal with insecurity in wars and be still supported emotionally. Kids were raised by the whole village collectively. Serial monogamy is an economic privilege, so lean in not just on women biology but also on economics and sociology. Predatory financial capitalism is changing relationship dynamics and the very nature of the constructs of love. Multi-generational (or Mormon) farm living evolved into serial mono-nuclear families. It is evolving again into polyamory not from lust but out of economic and emotional necessity. We went from isolating monogamy to re-discovering some aspects of foundational egalitarian hunter-gatherers tribal living.

I think that this is a man of honesty

Outstanding interview with Dr. Peter Levine. I listened to the audio book a couple of weeks ago and since then I have been listening to his interviews which helps me understand and integrate the book more fully. There is a lesson in this. I have studied Carl Jung and am very familiar with his language. It's been a long time since someone has really expressed a true journey into wholeness. I think active imagination is one of the hidden tools and skills of the Self that wants to come into beingness. I was personally somewhat overwhelmed by Dr. Levine honesty in the book. Now after listening to him in several interviews, I am sensing what a gift he is sharing with all of us. He is truly modeling a life of coming into wholeness. He has been called to show us the way!

It would have been a nicer video if you hadn't tried to sell me a crappy ukelele . . . .

I love her, but am curious. As a retired cop I noticed one of her necklaces was a handcuff key ,I wonder if she is aware of that.

Did they do it spill it all

Wow! This is so good I need to listen to it again! I’ve learned so much!!!! Thank you! ♥️

This is so very true and even I am guilty of the when I figure it....thank you for reminding me 😊

I mean…..have you been outside though?

You're just hilarious and bring joy to my life. Thank you for that 💕 I totally understand the paranormal episodes you experienced, because we've had experiences as well. When my hubby's Mom and my Mom passed I believe they were trying to connect with us. My Hubby's Mom was a Buddhist and always had chimes. We didn't have chimes and neither did our neighbors. Within the month after her passing we heard chimes twice in our home and we just stared at each other in disbelief 😳😲 but it really happened. When my Mom passed our dining room light would keep turning on and we never go in the dining room. One time we were out and came home and that light was on. It too was within the first month after her passing. I do have my Mom's and Grandparents ashes in that room, so I believe it was a sign of them trying to connect.

What about negative social interactions. They can have the same. And make u sit in your apartment day after day

I am currently reading Catherine Cookson's novel called The Silent Lady. This book is comforting me because the traumatized subject is made to feel safe by kind people after another person had physically and mentally brutalized her. It is so healing to find pieces of our own story in someone else's. Just to talk about such things is a comfort too as then some of the felt isolation is removed. Thank you for decriminalizing the term "breakdown".

❤😊

Ela virou a tia neide….

Since you decided to dig into dating and relationships and open relationships. You did get some things right and still missed some things. If you look into Dr David Buss some of his research has pointed to the idea that we are not naturally monogamous and that during the agrarian revolution the shift from tribal wondering to land ownership changed the entire dynamics of society. Religions solution to the predicament created by this was monogamy. Women trade their wombs and support for a lifetime of provision. Having no ability to test paternity this was the most reasonable solution. People raised in the culture didn't need to know why, they just needed to follow the traditions and society stayed stable. Breaking that societal contract has proven to be extremely bad. Especially as paternity testing has become readily accessible.

louder

Kunal’s voice has such a calming cadence! Jonathan’s story was also inspiring. I love to hear how people make through to the other side after a difficult experience. Thanks for doing this podcast.

you weird looking little creep

eeeeew.

What illusion?

The thriftbooks commercial pisses me off. They're in a middle of an escape and the girls like "I'm going to shop at thriftbooks ". That's so dumb

I realised that I kept fixing my m0ther's problems which SHE created HERSELF. She'd confide and tell me things she caused KNOWING FULL WELL I'd fix it, THEN she'd turn on me when i tell her she needs to stop enabling what she's enabling, but she NEVER turned on the other person. When I realised what was happening i MADE MYSELF stay away and stopped absorbing her bs! It is draining emotionally AND financially. She even admitted treating me like shxt my whole life because of the news she watched and read when SHE WAS A CHILD whiich made men look like predators so she pushed my face in the dirt while she constantly elevated my brother, even in adult life - this is when i confronted her about it. first she denied it, then the truth came out. If she (and/or other distant relatives) left earth tomorrow I hope no one notices my dry eyes. And to thin SHE cause all my childhood issues ... BUT i'm not allowed to talk about that otherwise i'm "being negative"... She is a utter narcissist. I tolerate her just so I can see my niece and nephew - THAT'S IT!

Jonathan seems like such a dear man. I love his and Mayim's connection.

She's an inbred goblin!

I love Call Me Kat. Watched it on Hulu. Bought it on vudu. Sad it ended.

That's hilarious how all of the bad things in the world and cults are all on the opposite side of the liberal mind-set...Never a mention of ANYTHING could be wrong with liberal cults like the horrific cults that are based in YOGA, etc.etc...all I see on this site are cheerleaders for Dems and Biden...How about NO political parties, to put your hope in a political party is insanity. Over 50 million people have been murdered in the name of socialism / communism , and it's all based in political parties.

Mayim! Thank you so much for creating the Breakdown podcast. I have been watching it everyday. I grew up watching you on Blossom and then on the Big bang theory. I think you underestimate how big of a celebrity you actually are. Understand that you have made a great impact on millions of people. Your looks are real and authentic, and make the rest of us feel comfortable in our own skin with the way that we look. There is beauty in being natural.

Listening to this episode was very calming and comforting for me 💜

Jonathan, thank you for sharing your Reiki experience. People don’t talk about it. I have been there.

Bro u rock,the honesty and openness is a true gift,may your "fracture" mend others through your music

When you love yourself enough Jesus Christ so self-love equals exploitation of others? You can't make this s*** up

its depressing.. you are more than your body. though.

This subject came in the prfect momento for me, thanks mayim

Mayim, you ask wonderful questions!

❤

I agree with you about being a jew- especially about being a jew in the land of the jews and speaking the language of the Hebrew Man (see what I did there?) wake up amazed every day that I am part of this story.

She also has a meth oh sorry Adderall problem.

real.

This❤

use passion, your mind will go where there is emotion. I always take on projects that are too big for me and i get overwhelmed but i have a sense of never giving up. so i almost force myself into situations that make me kick and scream and struggle till i overcome it this time. Next time ill take it on again and again and again. Every time im creating an emotion of being unstoppable. How are you gonna beat me when break my bones back into place and keep coming after you like a fucking brainless zombie. If the only tool i have to break down this wall is my head then you can be sure im gonna bleed. But even if i have to drown it with my blood and erode it that way i will.

you can learn to do it with great deal of patience. You are right that stimulant's work but its not only your brain that is stimulated its also your body so that simulant is doing the same damage to your body as its fixing your brain. Stimulants are very very addictive and they have very fast tolerance gaining. You will just go trough one stimulants to another till they wont work anymore and you will get a hopeless depression because you have coded into yourslef your incapable of learning.yes your brain structure is different, a person can lose half of their brain and later re-map their whole brain. I also used to think like this till life forced me to learn or die. Is it much easier with stimulants/ yes? do i reach for them when have a rly bad day? yes? But you can surely put music in the same category as stimulants. Sugar and anything that produces dopamin will also help like a shower. Or love oxicodon. Inner monologue can be used to steer your taughts and left soothing. You can learn to make yourself emotional and that also will help you focus. Its a lot better since it works like stimulants but its natural and has no lasting effect if you need it to stop. Sorry but drugs are answer to nothing.

VERY villain hair! But it def is Atusko! lol
