Are you feeling confused and manipulated by politicians and the media? Do you feel that political marketers try to make you feel anxious, angry or disgusted in order to get your vote? The history of mass-manipulation is long and dark and more than ever needs to remembered and learned from. Growing up in Germany, raised by parents who were teenagers during World War II, I always wondered, how was it possible that an entire nation could be seduced to make Hitler, a little Austrian man without any background in politics or economics, their Fuehrer? What is disconcerting now is that new populistic movements arise all over the world and already start to create a divide among families and friends. In the wake of their uprising basic principles of decency, honesty and compassion no longer seem to unite the nation, but are denounced by some as wimpy and liberal. It appears that it is time to remind ourselves of some of the strategies Hitler used to manipulate his people to gain absolute power - and of the horrors t

Whether we realize it or not, the words we use dictate and control our lives. The persistent messages we repeat can frame our thoughts and trap us into a mind-set that is difficult to break. This mind-set often manifests itself with statements like I can t, I m not good enough, and I ll never find the [insert the blank] I want. Many times, we don t stop to consider the profound impact that these negative, limiting words have on our mentality, life choices, and the path of possibility that we manifest. Join Dr. Schaub on Wednesday, October 18 at 11:00 AM PST as he speaks with Mary Shores. She shares how we can create new neural pathways simply by changing our words.

If you were borne during the 80s and 90s you may agree with this quote: Millennials are the generation that were sold a dream and are afraid to have to deal with a nightmare. A recent study found that more than 50% of Millennials suffer from anxiety, trouble sleeping, and almost 30% have panic attacks. Some blame technology, lack of rest and bad eating habits for this surge in anxiety. Others believe that peer pressure, the unrealistic need to be special and the resistance to growing-up and becoming like their baby boomer parents are the real reasons why generation Y is freaking out. But what is the deeper message of the anxiety and what can you do to overcome this challenge, which seems to keep you stuck in your tracks? Join Dr. Friedemann Schaub s Empowerment Radio as he addresses these and other questions on anxiety in Millennials.

As the tragic events surrounding Hurricane Harvey and the terrible destruction it caused are still unfolding, it becomes obvious that without the thousands of volunteers, who spontaneously answered the call to help their fellow citizens in need, the death toll would be much higher. Countless people owe their lives to those, who put their own safety at risk in order to rescue those, who couldn t help themselves. The citizens of Houston and other areas hit by the storm showed that the one thing we need to overcome such challenges isn t more power, control or money - but compassion and love for each other. To quote the Dalai Lama: Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive. But how can we deepen our compassion during a time, which is described by some writers as the death of compassion and the age of anger. Join Dr. Friedemann Schaub on Empowerment Radio and discover 5 effective ways to make compassion a priority in your life.

Do you have a hard time leaving your house, because you have to check at least ten times that the iron is unplugged or that the door is locked? Do you struggle with intrusive thoughts about hurting a loved-one, death or other horrible events? Or are you overly concerned with germs or keeping your books or tools in perfect order?
