Burpees. You hate them I hate them Why?  Because they are pretty much the best whole-body exercise you can do in a confined space.  If you had to pick on exercise to do for the rest of your life, bang-for-buck - it's probably the burpee.
But what about keeping your mind fit? In this episode Osher offers up a technique to train the observing mind to get more involved, more often. It's simple to learn, and can have profound impacts on how we react to things.

Rebuilding your life after emotional and financial betrayal (with Tracy Hall)

Osher describes how yesterday he discovered an underlying freeze response which he didn’t realise was playing havoc with his life. ‌ Join him for an exploration in to how if we’re not in “fight” or “flight” we can become immobile, literally frozen and unable to speak. ‌ (He also manages to work the hunting habits of South African Killer Whales into this conversation, which was a nice surprise. You won’t believe their favourite snack). ‌ Former, you might find these episodes interesting to listen to next Mental Health, Give us a wave ‌ The link between Childhood Sexual Trauma and Adult Mental Illness with Associate Prof Emma Jane ‌ Keeping mentally healthy online with Nat's What I Reckon and Flex Mami (live at Meta HQ) ‌ To get on the mailing list and explore other episodes, got to oshergunsberg.com

The freeze response, tonic immobility in sharks, and what to do about it (unless you're being hunted by an Orca)

After his chat with Jodi on Wednesday, Osher was reminded about his experience with a fascinating way to develop theory of mind: The Three Chairs Technique.      While it sounds like mental musical chairs, it’s actually quite powerful and super accessible.      Have you tried this one? What techniques do you use when you come across adversity?
