  • 366: How to Lift the Weight off Yourself that Emotional Difficulties Create
    Jun 17 2025

    Originally published May 06, 2021. In this powerful Best Of episode, we dive into the surprising science behind emotional stress and how our brains create outdated patterns in response to life’s challenges. Cedric Bertelli, Founder and Director of the Emotional Health Institute (EHI) explains how even the most emotionally healthy among us are shaped by unconscious predictions that trigger stress, anxiety, and depression.

    Learn how to shift your emotional state by understanding the brain’s predictive mechanisms—and how simply sitting with your emotions, even briefly, can begin to release their grip. This eye-opening conversation offers practical tools for lowering stress and reclaiming control of your emotional well-being.

    Guest Bio - Cedric Bertelli is the Founder and Director of the Emotional Health Institute (EHI), which educates individuals and professionals on Emotional Resolution (EmRes)—a method for resolving stress, anxiety, depression, and other disruptive emotions. Since 2009, Cedric has researched and refined the EmRes process, training thousands of adults, including over 200 teachers in the San Francisco Bay Area, to use it effectively. He also works directly with clients and trains mental health professionals, coaches, and educators.
