SELF Care 101

No one actively goes out to hurt themselves but so many of us do it all the time. I do it, I'm pretty sure if you clicked on to listen to this episode, that you do it too. It's all too easy to hurt ourselves when we think that others are going to behave the way we do. We have to learn to stop expecting ourselves from others. If we can raise our self awareness enough about this, we can truly start to understand why we get hurt and how to put an end to it once and for all. On this episode I delve into the behaviour patterns for expectations and also some NLP support for mindset work to help raise self awareness. In the words of Vivian in Pretty Women "big mistake, huge!" We have to learn to stop expecting ourselves from others. If we can raise our self awareness enough about this, we can truly start to understand why we get hurt and how to put an end to it once and for all.

On this episode I’m going to talk about one of my favourite things to do, ever, SLEEP. We’ll look at why we should be sleeping well and also how.

We’re all pretty aware that sleeping well is going to benefit us. A good night’s sleep is vital to our physical health and emotional well-being. That’s why the benefits of good sleep should never be underestimated and why getting a proper rest on a regular basis isn’t just a good idea, it’s an essential one. There’s a lot of information out in the world about how much sleep we should be having, tips on getting to sleep, how you should be feeling etc etc but I wanted to simplify it for you in this podcast. Firstly, we need to sleep and we need to sleep well. We are humans, not robots. Sleep is essential for so many reasons and can usually help get us out of certain moods, that’s where the term “sleep on it” comes into play as well as essentially just plain make us feel good to seize the day. Here’s some science for you before I give you some tips for learning how to sleep well. I know it’s not easy for some but if you can embrace sleeping well, you will also start healing some of the stuff that’s going on with you.

On this episode, I interview my long-time friend Kelly who is struggling to get pregnant. A lot of people want to have a baby and for some it’s super easy, they have sex and then taddah, they’ve got a bun in the oven. However for almost 1 in 7 heterosexual couples in the UK this is simply not the case. Reasons for not being able to conceive easily vary couple to couple and PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) is a common condition that affects how a woman's ovaries work - but there is no treatment. It has been rearing its head for a long while now yet still doesn’t have the awareness that it should. It’s a silent reason for difficulties getting pregnant but one that we should all know more about. Weight plays a big role with PCOS and in general all pregnancies but Kelly’s struggle meant that she had to take drastic action because of her age as well, to help her chances of conceiving. This is an emotional story and one that I feel honoured to have been able to learn about. I am so grateful to Kelly for allowing me to interview her for the podcast, in the hope that her insights might be able to help someone.

On this episode I’m going to talk about how you can put yourself first and why it’s so important especially during the festive season.

Some of us have a habit of putting everyone and everything before ourselves. Sometimes, we don’t even realise we do it and the extent to which we do it. It’s important fo our own mental health and well-being that we recognise this and manage it because if we don’t, eventually we will burnout and not even know why it happened in the first place. So, if you recognise that you put others before yourself, this podcast is a must-listen!

If you’re really serious about your health and wellbeing – this extends beyond losing weight and being less tired – then you need to look at your life as a whole, not just food and fitness. 

In this episode I talk about the scaremongering, the fads, the trends and the countless amounts of misrepresented and appropriated information about various different traditions that have become silo therapies some of which may work, but are really only truly effective in the context in which they were designed – which includes the combined elements of their theories, which should be considered.

Being inspired by a friend’s strength is something to behold. When someone close to you battles with life threatening events, it’s important for us to understand how difficult that process was and how they were able to come out the other side - not unscathed - but instead more informed and resilient to what life brings us. In this episode I interview my friend Mel who experienced an intense life event that has shaken up her entire outlook on life. Following a year-long trip to Bali where Mel's mental health was challenged and many lessons were learned, this is an inspiring story of strength, resilience and motivation to continue to live life well.

Scientists say there’s a neurological reason for the cycle of negative thinking we all sometimes fall into. The more emotional the situation, the stronger the memory will be. So what can you change about your behaviour towards negative thought patterns so that you can put less pressure on yourself? In this episode, Puja shares a very personal example since launching the podcast of her own spiral of disappointment and the coaching techniques that she herself used that may help you break the cycle, as well as feel more confident with your decisions.
