In this episode of the Psykhe podcast Hannah is joined by Danny Koordi, host of the Screwed up Moments podcast. We discuss the power of stories of the worst mometns of people's lives and how both telling our own and sharing them can be beneficial. Danny shares the story of Rachel and her experience of psychosis and the stigma associated with mental illness. Danny shares a powerful extract from Julie Yip Williams, "to take an ugly tragedy and transform it into a source of beauty, love, strength, courage and wisdom", and discuss the strength of the human spirit. We also discuss the different types of happiness - everyday and long-term, and the benefits of mindfulness.
