Grief can often be a taboo subject. We're not quite sure how to deal with it, what to do with people who are going through a grieving process and how best to support people who are grief stricken.

In this episode my guest Suzanne Jabour, a grief expert shares her own experience of grief after the loss of her son and strategies to support people you know who are grieving a loss.

We talk about:

• How you can best support someone who is grieving
• What the process of grief looks like
• Why there's so much shame around grief
• How to hold space when grief feels awkward
• What NOT to say to someone who's grieving
• The value of learning to name your emotions
• The timeline of grief

This was such a valuable conversation to have. As someone who is very awkward around grief, I learnt a huge amount from my chat with Suzanne.

Worry is a multifaceted feeling. Sometimes it’s a construct of your mind, as in you spend time worrying about what might happen in the future or ruminating over something that has happened already and, in the process, keep your feelings of anxiety alive and kicking. Or, you could be worrying about something that’s not happened yet and quite possibly never will.

Either way, being in a constant state of worry is uncomfortable, stressful and can spoil your ability to be present and enjoy life.

In this episode I share  ways you can soothe your worried mind and stop being ruled by your negative thought patterns.

I talk about:

• Paying attention to your worry
• Knowing when to act on your worry and when to let it go
• Strategies to mitigate the feeling of worry
• How you can reduce and even stop feeling worried 
• Navigating money worries
• When to seek professional help
• How subconscious beliefs play into our worried thoughts
• Facing worry head on

I’m very passionate about helping folks overcome worry and anxiety, so if this episode resonated with you and you’d like to chat about how I can help, please pop me an email - [email protected]

I also have a FREE ‘4 Ways to Soothe your Anxious Mind’ online workshop which you can access here.

Helpless, hopeless, pointless, shut down, exhausted and a deep desire to go on a semi-permanent Netflix binge are just some of the delights you can expect to experience when you’re feeling overwhelmed. 

Overwhelm occurs when you’re mentally and emotionally burdened by a situation or circumstance you don’t feel in control of and don’t see a way out of. It’s often accompanied by its party pals; procrastination, anxiety and worry making it a particularly unwelcome visitor.

In this episode, I share 12 ways you can reduce overwhelm and lessen the mental load on your mind so you can function more calmly in your day to day life.

Pop me a DM on Instagram @emmaobriencoach to let me know which is your favourite tip!

Our gut is often described as our second brain and with jolly good reason.

In this episode, my guest Dr Katie Murphy shares how our gut affects our brain, why what we eat affects our mental health and how you can improve your second brain's functioning with some simple diet tweaks.

We talk about:

• What happens in our gut and how it affects our brains
• How what we eat affects our cognitive functioning
• The link between our gut and nervous system
• What our gut tells us about anxiety and stress
• 3 tips for improving gut health
• The value of probiotics and how to choose good ones
• How to soothe your stress response

There is a huge amount of valuable information in this episode and I hope it inspires you to see your gut in an entirely different light.

As promised, here are some notes about probiotics:

- Recent clinical trials have shown that specific strains of probiotics are capable of regulating mood imbalances, stress, anxiety, and depression. 

- The unique combination of Lactobacillus helveticus, Bifidobacterium longum, and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus has been clinically proven to work together to improve the microbiome and alleviate symptoms associated with stress, anxiety, depression, improve mood balance.

- Specifically, Lactobacillus helveticus and Bifidobacterium longum have been shown to improve serotonin levels in the gut.

- Taking a probiotic that includes these 3 particular strains can help you balance this complex system
