  • Celebrating Ep#50

    Welcome Back! Today is all about Celebrating, and we chose this because we literally are celebrating our 50th episode here at the Press Pause Podcast.
    We could easily carry on and perhaps wait for our 100th episode but why? when we can celebrate right NOW.

    This is our message and as simple as it sounds it can be the difference weather you succeed or give up. How do you celebrate along the way?
    It can be as little as a high five, or as big as buying yourself a trip away somewhere you've always wanted to go, whatever you choose, it's just as important as the goal itself. 

    If we are really wanting long term results we must celebrate to keep it fun, keep us motivated and it actually helps us achieve even more when we stop to reflect and acknowledge ourselves and efforts.

    What can you celebrate today? 

    If you would like more support in this area you can connect with us via our websites or social media platforms. 
    Feel free to get in touch, share your thoughts and feedback, or ask any questions you have.

  • Goal Setting Ep#48

    Have you ever felt like you're in a boat going down stream with no awes to steer yourself in a specific direction?
    Direction can be determined by you and you can truly have what you want if you organise yourself, get clear with your intentions and write out short and long term gaols to help track your progress. 

    Today we discuss why we set goals, how to set them, and how even the smallest goals can have a tremendous impact on your future. 

    Getting clear in your mind about what you want is really important so you don't wake up one day unhappy, unfulfilled or simply confused about how you ended up where you have. Setting goals is about taking responsibility of the outcome you are creating for yourself in all areas of life.
    It can be a lot to think about, but when broken down into different areas of your life, you can really make it fun and enjoy planning what makes you happy and content.

  • Tuning In Ep #47

    Today we explore the power of tuning in. What does tuning in mean? Have you ever had a gut feeling or intuition play out where it came true? This is one level of what we discuss today.

    When we give ourselves the time to listen and 'tune in ' to what it is we need, what is going on around us and how this can benefit us on our self-care journey it is a simple effective way to align ourselves with our future vision. It is like a frequency that we can buid and develop and use to our advantage in many areas of our life that will guide you to answers and results you may not be aware off.

    Sometimes wer are aware of what we should do but are influenced by situations or those around us. Have you ever inquired into if you do this or how this impacts you?

    We love how these simples tools can help you to connect and make decisions that last, that bring a deeper level of awareness and can help shift the direction your current self-care practices are.

    We would love you to come and join us.

  • Beliefs Ep #43

    In this episode we discuss how beliefs play a role in our health and wellbeing. Whether it's things we believe about ourselves, the world around us and how you can use this incredible power to your advantage.

    Beliefs are the root cause of so many of our manifestations, results and patterns that show up in all areas of our lives. Are they serving you? Are you really getting the results and growth that you desire? 
    Perhaps today you take a deep look within and feel into your own beliefs, and use the self care tools that works best for you to get really clear and aware of what they are.

    Make sure you aren't limiting yourself with your beliefs, and instead remain open to growing and learning with understanding around many types of beliefs.

    We have attached a great book below called the Biology of Belief By Bruce Lipton which can be a great listen and place to start to dive into this topic.

  • Meditation Ep #41

    Have you ever meditated, wanted to meditate or wondered where to start around the topic of meditation?

    Today we discuss the variety of ways you can engage with meditation, why we do it and what is the ultimate goal around what it means to meditate.  
    We like to help you find your way of doing things at the press pause podcast and what suits your self care journey. Mediation can be just as unique and personal as what you eat for breakfast or how you choose to exercise and when. 

    Join us as we chat about the variety of ways you can still the mind and create more awareness of self and thoughts to allow yourself to have more power than the thoughts itself, rather than feeling pressured to empty all thoughts completely.
    Again as we always say, there's no right or wrong, find what works for you as you start with what is simple, doable and what resonates with where you are right now in the present moment.
