What Watching Short Videos Does To Your Brain

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/10/05

You sat down with a book last night, got through about three pages, and then your hand went to your phone. You weren't bored. You just couldn't stay. A lot of people have started to worry that their memory is going or their mind is slipping, and that's almost never what this is. This one explains what's actually happening, and what you can do about it. Ready to break the cycle for good?

What's Actually Happening When You Go Cold On Someone

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/10/02

Somebody says something and you feel yourself close. Your face goes still, something in your chest shuts, and what comes out afterwards is polite and about ten degrees colder. This one is about what the hardening is protecting, what it costs you rather than them, and why the practice of peace starts a great deal closer to home than most of us think.

Why You Can't Relax Even When Nothing's Wrong

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/30

The children are settled, nobody's ill, you've got the weekend free, and there's still something in your chest that won't settle down. Most people treat that feeling as a sign that something needs fixing. This episode is about why it isn't, and why getting used to it might be one of the most useful things a person ever learns.

Why Your Worst Thoughts Arrive In The First 30 Minutes

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/28

You're awake before you've decided to be, and the thinking has already started, and it isn't kind. Sometimes it's about today. Often it's much older. A student asked why this happens every morning and then follows her around all day, and most of the answer turns out to be physical. Ready to break the cycle for good?

Why You Judge People You Don't Even Know

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/25

You're in the supermarket queue and a woman speaks sharply to her little boy, and the verdict is there before you've finished looking at her. You didn't decide to think it. This episode is about why it happens that fast, what all that judging is quietly costing you rather than her, and one question you might try that takes about ten seconds.

Why The Same Thought Turns Up Every Time It's Hard

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/23

You have one. The move to the coast, the leaving of the job, the if I could just get the weight off. Whatever goes wrong this week, that same thought arrives and offers itself as the answer, and you've had it several thousand times without ever making a single phone call about it. This episode is about what that thought is actually doing, and a two week test that shows you what's underneath it. Ready to break the cycle for good?

Why You're Not Your Own Best Friend (And How To Fix It)

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/21

You dropped something this morning, and you heard what you said to yourself. It was quick and flat and it barely registered, and you've been saying versions of it for about forty years. This episode isn't about being nicer to yourself, because you've heard that already. It's about a question somebody once put to the Dalai Lama that he couldn't understand, and what that reveals about the one relationship you never get a day off from.

Why You Don't Need to Forgive to Find Peace

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/18

There's a person. You didn't have to think about it, they just arrived. And somebody once told you to forgive them, and you wanted to put a chair through a window. That reaction is intelligent and this episode defends it. Then it gives you what works instead, which isn't forgiveness and doesn't involve deciding it wasn't that bad.

Before the Story Starts

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/16

You've never actually felt most of your feelings. You've had positions about them instead. If you can be in real distress at a dinner party and still get up and clear the plates while nobody notices a thing, this episode explains what you learned to do, what it's been costing you, and the one word you'll have to stop using.

When the Ground Disappears

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/14

There's a kind of terror that isn't about the bad news. It's about not knowing yet. If you're standing in your own life waiting for somebody to walk in and tell you what happens next, this one's for you. Your body finds the not knowing more expensive than the bad news, and once you know that, there's somewhere different to put your effort. Ready to break the cycle for good?

You Say You're Fine. Then You Resent Them For...

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/11

Somebody asked how you were this week and you said fine, and you said it beautifully, because you've had a lot of practice. Then later something hot and resentful came up in you, pointed straight at them for not knowing. This episode is about that loop, including the half of it nobody ever admits, and the one sentence that quietly breaks it. Ready to break the cycle for good?

Snapping At People You Love? You're Not A Bad Person

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/09

You heard your own voice come out sharper than the situation deserved, and you've been quietly worried ever since that this is who you're becoming. It isn't. Irritability is the first thing to go when there's no space left in your life, and in this episode we look at what your temper is actually telling you, why it always lands on the people closest to you, and the one minute experiment that changes the whole evening.

How Dolly Parton Made People Feel Bigger, Not Smaller

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/07

You know the people who walk into a room and everyone in it sits up a little straighter, and somewhere along the way you decided you're just not one of them. This episode takes that decision apart. Dolly Parton spent sixty years making people feel bigger rather than smaller, and when you look closely at how she actually did it, it isn't a personality at all. It's a handful of small refusals, and every one of them is available to you on an ordinary Tuesday. Ready to break the cycle for good? If

Your Mother Has Never Said I Love You. Try This

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/04

There is a woman who has never once said "I love you." Not to her daughter, not to her granddaughter. If you have someone like that, you've almost certainly stopped expecting the words, and you've probably landed on one of two conclusions. Either they don't feel it, or you're the reason. Neither is usually true. People who can't say it are rarely withholding it. They just never had the words made ordinary or safe in their own mouth, and you cannot shame somebody into handing over something they've

Arguing With Someone In Your Head? How To Stop

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/09/02

You've had the same argument with your sister forty times and never once out loud. This usually gets filed under overthinking, and you've probably concluded you're anxious, or dramatic, or that you can't let things go. You're none of those. You're doing something extremely reasonable and completely impossible, and nobody has ever named it for you. You're looking for the sentence that guarantees how the other person will react. That they won't be angry. That they'll finally understand. And there is

Awake at 3am Every Night? Deep Breathing Won't Fix It

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/08/31

You wake at three in the morning and your mind is already mid-sentence. Not a crisis. A conversation. You've probably decided this is insomnia, or that something is wrong with your sleep, or that you're bad at switching off. None of those are what's happening. You surfaced the way everyone surfaces several times a night. The difference is that something was waiting there for you, and it had been waiting all day. I explain why what's waiting is almost always a conversation with a specific person,

Why Nothing You've Tried For Anxiety Has Worked Yet

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/08/28

You've tried the apps. The breathing. Probably the medication. And you're still here. "I've tried everything and nothing works" usually gets treated as a mood to be talked out of. It isn't. It's an accurate report about a very specific kind of failure, and the moment you can name that failure, what you do next changes completely. I explain what everything you've tried has in common, why nobody has been working on the thing that actually matters, and the three things to do instead. Including the

I Teach Meditation. Here's When It Makes Anxiety Worse

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/08/26

There are moments when meditation will make your anxiety worse, and almost nobody in my field will say that out loud. If you've ever sat down to meditate while genuinely anxious and got up feeling worse than when you started, you didn't fail at it and you're not bad at this. You were using the right tool at the wrong moment, and nobody told you there was a difference. I explain exactly why it backfires when you're already struggling, why the same practice is lovely on a calm day, and the rule I use

Why Your Mind Speeds Up The Second You Lie Down

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/08/24

Your mind was fine all day. Then you lie down, the light goes off, and it starts. If that's your eleven o'clock, this isn't a sleep problem and it isn't a discipline problem. There's a reason it begins at that exact moment and not twenty minutes earlier, and once you understand it, the whole thing stops feeling like something going wrong with you. I explain what your mind is actually doing when it won't settle, why the racing is one question repeated rather than chaos, and three things to do about

Self-Care Isn't Selfish. Here's What It Actually Is.

In Your Right Mind with Monique Rhodes ·

2026/08/21

You'd drive across a city at ten at night for someone you love, without a second's deliberation. Now try asking yourself for twenty minutes and watch how long that takes. This episode takes apart the belief that looking after yourself is something you have to earn, and offers a different definition entirely. Not a treat. Not an indulgence. Something much more useful, and much harder to argue with. Ready to break the cycle for good? If this episode resonated with you, there's something you need to
