246. Rebranding your life with Davidji

Saturday, September 7, 2024 • Duration 56:37

This episode is without a doubt one of my all-time favorite conversations on the podcast! In this episode, I chat with the renowned meditation teacher, David Ji, who has guided millions of people on their journey to heal their hearts and embrace the power of meditation.

What We Discuss:

Shedding What Doesn’t Serve Us: David and I explore the concept of letting go of the things in our lives that no longer serve us, viewing this as a form of rebirth or life rebranding.
Who’s in Your Front Row: We dive into the importance of becoming aware of the people in your "front row"—those who directly influence your life—and why it’s crucial to surround yourself with those who truly support your choices and growth.
Evaluating Your Circle: Take a moment to reflect on the five people or behaviors in your life and how they impact your feelings and well-being.
The Power to Begin Again: David shares insights on giving yourself permission to start fresh, no matter where you are in life.
The Power of Meditation: We chat about how meditation can transform your life, leading to more mindful and conscious decisions.
16-Second Meditation Practice: David also takes us through a simple yet powerful 16-second practice that can help you make more conscious choices—this one is a beauty!

To learn more about David Ji, you can find his meditations on Insight Timer or visit his website.

245. The importance of self check in and how to do it.

Saturday, August 31, 2024 • Duration 28:19

In this solocast, I dive into the transformative power of the self check-in. Understanding and responding to the signals our body sends can be a game-changer in preventing ailments, avoiding poor decisions, and managing reactive behaviours. Through self-compassion and mindfulness, we can better equip ourselves to face life's challenges with grace and resilience.

Join me as I guide you through a simple yet powerful mindfulness practice designed to help you connect with yourself on a deeper level. Whether you're dealing with stress, uncertainty, or just need a moment of calm, this episode will provide you with the tools to tune into your body, listen to what it’s telling you, and respond with care.

I'm thrilled to announce that I'll be running a 7-day course called Connected live and online, starting on September 16. This course is designed to help you deepen your connection with yourself through mindfulness and self-compassion practices. Don't miss this opportunity to join a supportive community and take your personal growth journey to the next level!

146. The colourful life of sobriety with Calamity Tash

Saturday, February 4, 2023 • Duration 01:06:52

In this episode I catch up with the very colourful Calamity Tash from Adelaide. Tash gave away alcohol at the age of 25 years old, after years of habitual serious bingeing (to the point of alcohol poisoning), blackouts, and using alcohol as a coping mechanism. Her drinking spiralled out of control, starting her day with wine, drinking in her lunch breaks and then continuing after work. Luckily, she started dating someone who didn't drink and she realised that life without alcohol is a possibility.

Tash has been sober for over 4 years now, she surrounds herself with people who keep her accountable in sobriety and her work with disengaged, queer and neuro-diverse youths.

To reach out to Tash contact her on Instagram @calamitytash

145. The undeniable life changing freedom of waking up without shame and regret with Lisa from Sydney

Saturday, January 28, 2023 • Duration 47:26

How many times do we have to wake up hating ourselves? Feeling incongruent, out of alignment with our values, ashamed, worried, embarrassed, your body demanding attention "please stop poisoning me"... Yet we ignore it, blame ourselves, tell ourselves we will learn to be better and repeat the exact same cycle a few days or weeks later? I know I did and so did this wonderful guest Lisa. Lisa and I have been working together for 12 months or so and she is the epitome of digging deep and doing the work. A true example of how it's not always easy, that sobriety will challenge you, uncover things about yourself you didn't know where there and make you deal head on with raw emotions but the flip-side is true freedom.

143. Get out of your mind and into your body with Dr Luke Sniewski

Saturday, January 14, 2023 • Duration 01:02:56

In this episode I was honoured to catch up with Dr Luke Sniewski. Luke is a Wellbeing Coach and Somatic Therapist, he was also the facilitator in Dr Gabor Mate's Compassionate Inquiry course which I was a student of in 2022. We caught up to talk about Luke's new book, Somawise which is an incredible resource for healing addiction and becoming more aware of the messages and signals the body is trying to make us aware of day to day. Luke uses his lived experience through an addiction to Porn and was able to heal what was driving that addiction through connecting to the body through awareness and compassion. Luke says authentic change begins with silence, stillness, and the courage to look inward. We may not like what we find there, but getting into our body is where the real work of change is done. Through this awareness we are able to liberate ourselves from our old patterns and core beliefs.
