Deal with a bad mood: The secret to get out of your bad mood! Why an NAD is important

Shalom and welcome to practical spirituality here adacia Torah in the Old City of Jerusalem overlooking the Temple Mount and please join my club yom tov media club.com please go online and join that club let's get the word out there so today we're gonna talk a little bit about moods which is kind of funny because I almost never have a low mood and I kind of had a low mood yesterday which is rare for me and I don't think it was a true low mood but it was on the definitely within the realm of a low mood certainly had all the symptoms so what we're gonna do is talk about moods moved up really really of your day is gonna come out based on the mood doesn't matter like you can have the best things happen to you in a low mood it's not gonna mean much and in a great mood you could have you know sad things happen you and you just totally miss that as well so moods are moods are really really a big big part of how life comes out and therefore we need a little bit of mastery when it comes to moods and how to deal with them and obviously the most important thing is getting to be to identify movies there's other important things like for example stay maintaining high moods how do you maintain a high mood I'll give you a couple secrets to that and and also once you're in a low mood if low moods locked in well how do you deal with the rest of that day and maybe even date so how you can deal with that but the most important thing to know about moods is that whenever you're in a low mood it's a important thing that you do not try to solve any problems in a low mood and you have what's called an nad nad stands for non analysis day because moods have a big impact on your thinking and when you're in a low mood you are in a non resource day your job that day is to just get through it distract yourself do what you got to do listen to some music go do some sports I mean I can tell you you know while we're at it I'll tell you a couple things that do in a low mood day yeah that was that will never happen to anybody who learns what I just taught you meaning once you know about na DS what's an nad stand for non analysis day once you learn about na DS you never ever will have a lung mood for more than a day or two you'll be shocked you know ninety-seven percent of people who deal with depression just don't understand low moods and they try to analyze their problems and so it keeps them littler I'll show you it on a graphic so if moods go up and down as they do know moods are like this up and down and when happens is in a low mood that's called this a low mood here so in a low mood what happens is analytical people they try to and especially these white Jews also make up over 40% of depressed people in the world is all because of our special thing we have you know what's the special thing we have everyone says we're very what and a little excellent well they say we're smart but that's not the right word because I know people who their smarts is just with a drill or a hammer or a nailer I know other people's smarts is in the dancing like they just they just got some kind of amazing instinctual brilliance with dancing and other people with a paintbrush got brilliance so a lot of different brilliance the Jewish brilliance is an analysis analysis is our brilliance we're really good at solving problems and and creating you think about like you know the stock exchange and the hedge funds and all the leveraging of real estate and everything that's always Jews back there making her house worth nothing in a day you know so we're good at analyzing things and what happens though when you're analyzing yourself you know in a low mood are you in a high resource state or a low resource State you know low mood in a very low resource State so you try to solve a problem let's say because that's what we do in low moods we try to solve our problems now when you try to solve a problem to low mood it has babies and so your one problem now became three and what's it what's the average you gonna do now that he has three problems to solve what's it gonna do it's gonna try to solve three problems gonna have nine your problems are having are being fruitful and multiplying and this is all low mood stuff you all know what I'm talking about you get in that low mood you're like a bull in a china store and you just break everything and you you just you'll you'll like you literally like let everything be ruined you know at the end of my day yesterday my wife came in the house and she she came into our room and I was laying there just going like leave me alone and and she was like she wanted to bring up several things that need like fixing in life and I was like I mean you could tell me that our house is gonna get flattened in 30 seconds and I'll just say please bring me a helmet you know like like I'll just I'm just gonna sit here and die you know like like this is no I mean a lawn resource state and I will not be solving any of our issues right now like that's just not gonna be going on right now so someone in a low mood it has what's called a non analysis day okay none analysis day and what happens is when you're in low mood what you'll notice is if you try to analyze your thoughts in a low mood you'll wind up here which is called analysis paralysis this is the this is all those depressed Jews out there that they just don't stop analyzing all their problems and they of course they're there in a non resource state because once you're stuck in analysis paralysis it's gonna be really bad news and and a low mood overtime what's that called depression depression is just a low mood over time is a low mood depression not at all Loehmann's just low mood it's like you know everything works vibration even dogs have looks like everything my voice right now is crossing the room in oscillating vibrations everything works that way and so do we we each have our own vibrational energy sometimes it's very high and it comes with very resourceful thinking sometimes it's very low and it comes with non resource think those are days where it's more contractive whereas there's more expansive days God knows what he's doing with moods but when it happens unfortunately as so many people get stuck in this low mood day and they miss all the up swings they would have gone right up had they just had what's called the non analysis there in a non analysis that you literally do not analyze your moods that's the most important thing in a low mood is to not analyze problems do not deal with any problems in a limit is most important thing and what you'll discover is within 24 hours you'll be feeling fine and you'll be shocked and you're gonna want to give me a big hug you just a rabid Glaser you saved my life cuz I've had my low moods were a lot longer than one day and ever since you taught me about non analysis days I'm fine and I and I it takes one to know one I was this guy this was me I'm a highly analytical person and I destroyed myself with that analysis I mean I was I I put myself as the target and I just shot arrows at myself all day trying to constantly fix stuff that I was not in the right resource state to be fixing I had no business trying to fix him my life up and so I had my nan and I remember my very first knot analysis day it was it was 26 years ago something like that and I'm someone who I would go into depression for like months 9 months 6 months 8 months I was I would have one most depressed guy at age award when I was in buffer I'm not as really chronically depressed and as soon as I learned about any DS having an on analysis day that was the last time I was depressed in 26 years and I went to I mean I went to everybody every therapist every rabbi got brazier prayed at the tombs I like I did everything you got I do you know they yeah anything you can do against depression I tried it nothing worked cuz my my search engine my analysis brain is crazy strong it's a power I have a powerful Google search in my brain and I but unfortunately I did all the clicking against myself on my search engine and and wound up really dealing with depression for years but I got out of it rough touch him through the na DS I remember that day like people coming up to him when you're depressed everyone thinks they're your therapist so they walk up to you they're like how are you not that they're listening but like everyone's your therapist how are you today you're just like get out of my face so people walking up to me with my that day and then they're like how are you and I said don't know like what do you mean you don't know I don't know I keep I mean yeshiva in UCB learned Gomorrah I'm gonna go open my Gomorrah and learn one day later I was fine and I've been fine for 26 years it's crazy like it was that simple and and thank god I've been able to help a lot of people with that but just to let you know since you do got to get through that day it's gonna be a rough day cuz every thought you're gonna have is on a low mood day is gonna be pretty harsh so just to get through the day I got a couple things you can do and one of them is to well I'll give you a bunch of things one of them is that you're all those thoughts you're gonna have all day in a low mood day and those nasty thoughts you're gonna have a couple thousand an hour so it's not gonna be an easy day because we all think thousands of thoughts an hour it's involuntary you know unless you're a meditator you're probably thinking involuntary and most of the day most of the contents pretty involuntary so so just like your heart beats and your lungs breathe your brain things so let's all let's do in a little exercise I'm gonna take your right hand raise your right hand okay we're gonna say hi to our heart say hi heart I wanna say hi heart hi lungs hi thoughts not say not not not going there let's try it again hi heart hi lungs hi thoughts not not going there okay you know your thoughts in a low mood day are just a train going to a bad neighborhood man okay you know where that trains going and I mean I imagine when you go to a subway system in LA or I'm sorry New York or Europe I imagine you actually look at the sign to see where the trains going before you get on yet how many of us get on trains of thoughts that are leading to really bad neighborhoods and and we're just we just jump right on that train don't we so you don't get on those trains of thoughts you know low mood you better be very careful with those trains so you just let that thought come and go that's where we're gonna do our next one you guys ever looked at a internet site that has the news and they have the breaking news moving by it moves by it's on us it's called a scrolling marquee just kind of scrolling by and and it's just a headline you can click on it or you can just let it scroll by tell me to low mood should you be clicking on your thoughts or should you let them scroll by I'll let them scroll down okay we're gonna take a right hand up okay move it to your left side of your forehead and out in front and go my thoughts are a scrolling marquee we knew that two more times again my thoughts are a scrolling marquee one more time my thoughts are a scrolling marquee now I imagine I mean you do see headlines sometimes where it's like what you know but most of the time you're just like you know like what high school was shot up now you know like next so you meaning we're pretty we're pretty calloused we're pretty calloused when it comes to headlines you know they don't touch us much we've we get pretty cold-blooded when it comes to headlines so I'm asking you to get a little more cold-blooded with your scrolling marquee when you're in a low mood is just let it scroll by you're not clicking on any of those headlines I'm not going for the full analysis of that story for sure that's just a headline it's gonna scroll by moving on to my next Horrible's and thoughts now now the in a low mood there's other things you can do and one thing is alcohol drink alcohol in a low mood not more than one drink meaning one glass of wine or one 12-ounce beer one shot of whiskey or so whatever your favorite high alcohol forty percent alcohol is so but definitely drink you want to start playing with your mind a bit and alcohol does affect the brain so so definitely have a shot of one the equivalent of one drink also when you have your coffee that morning you want to have a stronger coffee so go for like double coffee is a mood enhancer so you want to double up on coffee for your morning coffee those who are addicted to coffee I don't even know what to say to you and things to do so we mentioned alcohol mentioned caffeine another thing is YouTube just kidding be careful with YouTube in loanwords you know I mean you could just turn it on and have that you know work just keeps playing the next video and and just like died there so anyway but what you do want to do is something you'd never want to do in a long wooden that is cardiovascular sports you must sweat you must change your brain chemistry with some fitzy yeah you got to sweat and which means you're gonna have to go run a treadmill or get on a bike or go swim you got to get your body moving and that's the last thing most people would want to do in a low mood people get very little Sarge akin a little mood but you force yourself I have I forced myself I mean I ended my sports mountain biking and surfing so serving the house I gotta go drive down there and stuff and but let's say there's no surf so I found myself like literally pulling on I wear full-body army I find myself like forcing myself to just get my kneepads on and and cuz I don't want to ride I don't want to do anything in a little mood but I'm forcing myself and then getting out there and start paddling and start sweating and start and you know when I come back better off and be in the end
