Mark Shepard Interviewed by Kirsten Webb for Intelligent Optimist Magazine

Mark Shepard Interviewed by Kirsten Webb for Intelligent Optimist Magazine

Here’s  a short sample of an article that was written about my work last year.  I hope you enjoy it!

Read the whole thing at The Intelligent Optimist

It’s early afternoon in Arkansas, and a high school gym full of kids in assembly listens raptly to a bespectacled man with a microphone. “We have two minds,” he tells them. “We have our logical, analytical mind, and we have this other part of us where our emotions and feelings live. And that other part gets freaked out easily.”

This is not a lecture on neuroscience, as you might expect by now, but a session on how to -prevent bullying—and according to the -bespectacled speaker, bullying prevention is all in the mind. “The biggest problem with -bullying isn’t that someone’s going to hurt you,” he -continues. “The biggest problem with bullying is what goes on in your own mind.”
He presses a foot pedal, and his tone turns deep and ominous. “I’m gonna get you at the bus stop!” he growls. Students in the bleachers giggle. “But what if instead of making it into that monster sound in your brain, you turned it into this?” He presses the pedal again, and repeats the threat in a high, squeaky voice. The students laugh more loudly.

Anxiety is GONE!

“Oh my god… when you said ‘now where’s the anxiety?’ it gave me the biggest grin I’ve had in a long time… ‘cuz it was GONE! This is genius! You’re a genius sir!”

Very helpful…

“The information you are providing in the “CRUSH anxiety NOW!” course is very helpful. Thanks, Mark! BTW, I love your music, too. :-)”

Beth P.

I’ve been applying the techniques…

“Thank you Mark! I’ve been applying the techniques you taught us last week, and DAMN, it seems to be working already (but I’m not positive yet). I also wanted to tell you that I think you’ve got a real winner in your ‘Rain’ song. Ever since I heard it, I can’t get it out of my head! You’re the Best!”

Thank you so much for all of your help!

“Dear Mr. Shepard, I killed it with my speech yesterday, so thank you so much for all of your help! And thank you for adding me into the Bully Proof Teen group. I’ve been bullied myself as well so this is a good place for me to learn more. I will definitely take advantage of it. Don’t ever stop doing what you are doing!”

Hasen Khiar

I can’t thank you enough!

“I want to thank you for EVERYTHING you did for me! Ran the 48.6 miles last weekend. That is huge as when I first saw you I couldn’t even run outdoors without anxiety. I can’t thank you enough!”

I’ve been regularly using your breathing techniques…

“Hi Mark, I’ve been regularly using your breathing techniques and positive ‘why’ questions. I also bought your song ‘Arise Arise’ as it seems to really help when nervous.”

One day I just stopped wanting all the sweets…

“It wasn’t an ‘instant’ fix. It took a little while but one day I just stopped wanting all the sweets that I used to crave. Now I’m drinking more water and loving my body more.”
