If you ever wanted to know about how your food affects your health, wellbeing and energy….THIS IS THE SHOW TO LISTEN TO!
Our hosts Toby, Laura and Bridget interview the world renowned Cyndi O’Meara about diet, food and the impact the right and wrong foods have on our body.
As one of Australia’s most well known authors, speakers and advocates for wholefoods and chemical free living, Cyndi shares her knowledge in a way that makes new habits and decisions for anyone easy!
This interview could have lasted three hours with the knowledge that Cyndi shared with our hosts, so don’t be surprised if you see her back on the show as a regular contributor!

Greta Thunberg has been prolific on Social Media and traditional media spreading a message of Climate Change.
Which side of the fence are YOU sitting on? Do you agree or disagree? There is an argument for both sides and today, our hosts Toby, Laura and Bridget dive deep into what Climate Change is, how we do our part and why it’s a problem.
Our Toby isn’t so convinced and recommends that we all do our own research on the subject so that we can make up our own minds as to the actions we take.
One thing all three agree on though is that this world and environment DOES need our attention and if we keep chasing money over longevity, we will ALL pay a very heavy price!
Tune in to Speak Up and Engage and enjoy the exploration into a subject that has everyone thinking twice…Or even three times, thanks to the courage of a 16 year old girl!

The post SE 29: Cyberbullying Part 2 appeared first on The Wellness Couch.
The Speak Up and Engage Podcast started with the intention of educating the younger generations about health, vitality, wellness and the prevention of depression, suicide and anxiety and it makes so much sense that we bring a special focus to Cyberbullying as a part of this education process.
As a four-part series backed by the QLD state government initiative of Cyberbullying Awareness, the team at Spirit Hive (www.spirithive.org), the Sunshine Coast Council and QLD state government are working tirelessly to raise awareness, create prevention strategies in schools and homes and most importantly equip everyone involved with the tools to bring a halt to this devastating online issue.
In Part 1 of this 4 part series, we define what Cyberbullying is, how to avoid it, and how to respond if it’s happening to you or someone you know.

Statistics are showing that more and more of our youth are experiencing loneliness in a world where we are surrounded by so many people!
Is it because we are living in an era of technology instead of socialisation?
Have we prioritising work overplay?
These are the BIG questions our hosts’ answer that lead to disconnection and feelings of loneliness. We can do something about it if we become aware of our habits and behaviours. We always have a choice and turning to technology and social media for connection will always leave a sensation of emptiness.
Instead, hang out with people you love and recognise the signs when we withdraw!
Enjoy!!

Who is affected, why and what can we do about it in today’s society?
