Why does life feel so heavy—and why do we take things so personally? In this episode of Sufferless, Tim Tamashiro explores one of the oldest, wisest teachings on human suffering: The Four Noble Truths. But don’t worry—you don’t need to be Buddhist. This is a Buddh-ish, brain-based guide to feeling better, fast.

You’ll learn:

  • Why most of your suffering isn’t your fault—but what you do with it is
  • The surprising brain science behind your anxiety, spirals, and emotional pain
  • A simple, two-step practice—Notice It. Name It.—to shift from struggle to peace

This episode follows The Sufferless Shift:

Part One: The Default — Why your back brain keeps spinning in stress

Part Two: The Shift — The quiet moment when awareness takes over

Part Three: The Practice — A grounding mindfulness habit to stop the spiral and reclaim your calm

Whether you’re battling self-doubt, stuck in an emotional loop, or just feeling overwhelmed by daily life, this episode offers a path out—one breath, one moment, one tiny shift at a time.
