Quietly Bohemian episodes

  • Enjoy The Silence

    In another discussion about living from the inside out we talk about

    • How using words takes us out of our experience in the moment
    • Feeling good enough is not the opposite of not feeling good enough
    • Kings and paupers all have the same experience of life
    • You don't need a cloak and a deckchair to find inner peace
    • Where to look when all you need is some still water
    12 min
  • Waiting For The Night

    Waiting For The Night asks us to consider reality:

    • What is it?
    • Where is it?
    • Who are we really?

    And what are the implications for us doing what we want to do?

  • Halo

    Today we talk about Freedom and Luxury.

    Being free of:

    • other people's expectations.
    • the expectations we put on ourselves
    • the limits that we place on ourselves
    • all the times we make ourselves wrong
    • all the times we restrain and constrict and censor ourselves

    and the luxury of

    • not feeling stressed, overwhelmed or confused
    • knowing that you're fundamentally okay
    • having more time or more money
    • feeling confident or happy
    • having a dream and being able to go for it
    • living life true to yourself

    • Forgiveness

  • Sweetest Perfection

    This week we're talking about the Sweetest Perfection and appropriately enough it's short and sweet.

    Let's talk about how looking outside of ourselves for things to make us feel better or for where to lay the blame for how we're feeling is never the answer.

    We have innate mental health and wellbeing and nothing outside can ever take that away. Even if we forget that sometimes.

    And if you want to know what I think the Sweetest Perfection actually is, you'll have to tune in to find out!

    This week we're talking about the Sweetest Perfection and appropriately enough it's short and sweet.

  • World In My Eyes

    In World In My Eyes, I take you on a trip to show you what the world looks like to me now I've stepped outside the prison I'd made for myself. The prison of what will other people think.

    I also talk about how living life true to ourselves seems to speak to some grand plan (like a lawyer quitting his corporate job and becoming a chef or ballet dancer), but it's really those small actions we take, or don't take, every day that determine whether we are living free or censoring and restricting ourselves.

    Think about all the times you want to say or do something, but you stop yourself. You get into an internal dialogue about it. What if the dialogue could disappear? Or what if it didn't disappear but went quiet enough for you to move forward and stop second-guessing yourself so much? What would your life look like then?

    And finally we talk about love. Because that's all there is.

  • Everything Counts

    Everything Counts: all of who you are and all of what you want to do. The grabbing hands grab all they can: stop playing small and go and grab everything you want.

  • New Dress

    Through Martin Gore's eyes we take a look at how we can change the world.

    We talk about:

    • what kind of society we want to live in and how we can make our contribution to that
    • who really has the power to change the world
    • how we create the world we live in through our thinking
    • being the change we want to see in the world
    • the power of now

    And we touch on this being the world's only Depeche Mode life coaching podcast, but Amir Karkouti has already used this song to talk about how we can change the world in his Facebook group What The F*#$ Are The Principles

    His group is a fun and simple exploration of how these principles work in our lives.

  • My Joy

    Today we look at the joy of freely expressing all of who we are and the physical lightness of being that follows when we throw off the shackles of our prison of self-doubt, fear and anxiety.

    Understanding that we don't need to listen to our negative thinking leads to a joyful liberation. Not only will we end up doing more joyful things in our life; simply being our authentic self is it's own joyful experience.
