When we experience a break up, it's natural to feel shocked, overwhelmed, sad, depressed and negative. We might feel that the world is crashing down and everything is bleak, including our future. What we thought would be a happy life with this person is gone and gosh, it hurts!

Is it possible to find healing and move on, and rebuild a new life? Yes. In this interview with Chris Goode, a break up recovery expert and hypnotherapist from California, we will discuss the aspects to consider so we can process the pain, grief, and then start lifting our head and heart - rebuilding our life one step at a time.

The full episode is available on iTunes, Amazon music etc. However, due to a technical glitch with Zoom, my audio/video were distorted and slow, so I had to record again my part and superimpose it. This means that audio synch will be all over the place, while the podcast will be just fine. Don't worry for the little gaps here and there.

There are millions of people who suffer from an eating disorder, or ED. These are accompanied and triggered by several factors, including genetics, and may continue for 20-30 years - or even lead a person to death. While wading through tons of medical papers is beyond the scope of this podcast, I just wanted to balance the conversation a bit after talking so much about weight loss, and focus just on anorexia nervosa. Anorexia isn't a stand-alone condition, bur rather presents itself alongside specific common mental issues.

• I will give you some statistics about who tends to develop anorexia nervosa and what are the ages where this is more prevalent
• I will share some symptoms you can readily observe by looking at a person
• I will discuss some of the thoughts that keep pushing anorexic people to starve themselves and be focused on extreme diets/exercise/weight loss
• I will share some stories from real people who have overcome their issues
• And I will make the connection between being able to communicate our feelings to ourselves and others, and anorexia, from low self worth to lack of confidence, guilt and so on.
• I will also share which types are more likely to suffer from this eating disorders - it's not just models, although far too many models are pushed into EDs.
• Finally, I will share small bits about what seems to help with E.D.s I was pleased to see that three of the persons interviewed changed their intrusive thoughts by working with a hypnotherapist. You will see in the link below an interview with a young boy with the issue, some girls and 3 women aged 30-55.

My links for you are to view my sources and hear directly from those involved how things went:

As always, feel free to ask questions or add your considerations.

Please keep in mind that this episode doesn't not attempt to diagnose, prescribe or treat any disease. If you are suffering from an eating disorder, please contact a certified professional for treatment. If someone you know seems to be suffering from an E.D., please refer them or their parents to professionals for a diagnosis and do not attempt to diagnose disorders yourself.

We continue the fascinating conversation about letting the weight go. In this interview, and we are now in part two, Steven will explore more areas that are connected with success in losing weight. One of them is concerned with how to deal with contionous offers of foods that we no longer want to eat.

Isn't that strange that when we stop smoking, our smoking 'friends' keep offering us cigarettes/vapes? And when we stop drinking, they get offended if we don't join them, despite knowing all too well we are done with alcohol?

Food is seen by many as a way to celebrate and reward, and thus it is incredibly difficult to stop eating sugary or processed foods that are present in shops, parties, celebrations, work areas, cafeterias, schools, nurseries, hospitals and in the house of our best friends.

Steven will cover way more than this and will give us a good idea of what it's like to be on the 'other side' and not feel guilty, but still enjoy food in a healthier way.

Feel free to ask any questions, share, make comments etc and please before embarking on any diet consult your doctor. We are not prescribing or diagnosing in this podcast, which has only educational purposes and relates to our experience.

What's the difference between a healthy relationship and a toxic one?

At work or at home, we risk our mental health if we suffer in a toxic environment because of the actions of family, co-workers or a partner. In this episode we will go through the main aspects that make a relationship toxic, what abuse is and how to call it off or leave.

Sadly many of us do not leave but instead drink away their problems- causing bigger ones. If you are in a toxic relationship at the moment, or you know of someone who is, please reach out to the many organisations that offer a listening ear - it could save a life.

This episode is basically the audio track from the Youtube video I recorded with my guest, Steven Blake of OldPain2Go. com

In this one hour long interview, Steven goes really deep into the realm of pain and what type of message the body is trying to give us with certain types of chronic pain. In far too many cases, we ignore the pain and keep pushing, and so it returns, stronger and stronger until we can no longer ignore it.

This has been an eye-opening chat for me about being always 'busy'!

There is a personal threshold between being busy with life, and being overwhelmed, and Steven will clarifies how the process works.

In the end of the interview, Steven also explains what to do when we can't sleep because our mind is racing with to do lists and worries.

In my conversation with Steven Blake, the founder of OldPain2Go, I will ask many questions about the meaning of pain. Where is it coming from? What is it telling us and do we need it for years and years to remind us of something?

Steven will enlighten all of us regarding some aspects of pain that we might have not considered before. The one that shines to me is that many times we can let the old pain GO for good!

In the episode you will hear several incredible stories of healing after many years of severe pain, including Steven's story.

In the next episode, which will be available on video in my Youtube channel, we shall talk about lettign fibromyalgia go, too!
