What’s Coming This Episode?

Envy, one of the seven deadly sins, is something that a good chunk of the population will struggle with at some point. The thing is, envy, desire, jealously, et al. are all forms of anxiety – we’re projecting forward to a future that is not yet here.

It’s not all bad though, as those pangs of envy can drive us forward to achieve some remarkable things.

Enjoy this weeks episode of The Self Help Podcast!

Why detox? Well, if we cleanse our mind by meditating, then we can cleanse our bodies by undertaking a detox. Sean detoxes regularly and he’s currently part way through a serious, 90 day detox. Wowzers!

Sean and Ed are discussing all things food this week and the show contains more than one disclaimer. We’ll repeat it now for clarity: consult your doctor or a qualified nutritionist before undergoing any major changes to your diet.

Enjoy the show!

Apparently four year olds laugh, on average, 300 times a day. The average 40 year old? Only four. What’s up with THAT?

Laughter is good for your health. It can boost your immune system, reduce stress, alleviate pain and attract all sorts of wonderful people to you. So, yes, maybe laughter is medicine.

What’s Coming This Episode?

Those three wonderful words – ‘I love you’. How wonderful to hear them! But get this… research has shown that the act of feeling loved and wanted has very little to do with what is said. More, it’s about a persons tone of voice and, of course, their body language and actions.

Pretty much all humans have a basic desire to love and to be loved, finding love can often be quite a tribulation. Over to The Self Help Podcast to garner a few thoughts on the subject. Can Sean teach us how to fall in love?

Enjoy the show!

What happens when ‘life’ gets in the way of what we really, really, really want to do? Bills to pay, jobs to go to, etc. Where’s your passion? Are you living out someone else’s idea of a life well lived?

The ultimate test – do you relish getting out of bed in the morning?

What’s Coming This Episode?

Cancer. The ‘C’ word. To be told that you or a close relative has been diagnosed can come as a huge shock, where as more dangerous (statistically) conditions such as heart disease don’t have the same fear-factor. That said, a huge percentage of people will develop cancer at some point of their lives, so it’s best to be prepared.

This is a special episode as Sean and Ed have a special guest – it’s Rie! Finally! Rie is a psycho-oncology counsellor (nice title!) who works at Clatterbridge Cancer Centre helping folks out. The majority of people Rie deals with have, interestingly, are at the end of their treatment, others maybe expecting them to be celebrating, but this a common time for people to struggle to deal with what has happened to them – depression and anxiety are both real issues. Living with cancer, whether it’s there or not, is a hugely important issue.

We’re 34 episodes in to this little adventure of ours and it’s time to take stock of where we’re all up to. Do you live your life in the present? Are you ‘living in the now’? This episode is designed to focus your minds on everything that is important.

Astonishingly, Sean also uses todays episode to admit that he doesn’t have all of the answers to life and that, occasionally, he might be wrong about things. Incredible!

Enjoy the show!

Ah, difficult people! Sometimes there’s just no escaping them, either at home in our family life or at work. Is blood really thicker than water? This can be a tough point to take on board but remember that for the difficult person in your life it’s you who is being difficult.

There’s some advice in this from Sean that you might not expect…

What’s Coming This Episode?

When do we stop being children and become ‘adults’? When we turn 13? After leaving school or home? How about when we stop learning in general? We often look at young children as beings that need to be taught, but another reality is focusing on what they can teach us.

As we grow older we learn prejudice, fear and anxiety. Once you realise that this has been learned then you’re free to make the change and release your inner child.

What’s Coming This Episode?

New year, new you? A new year can mean new beginnings. This time of year is a great time to do a ‘self audit’. Reflect on how your life has been and dictate to yourself how you are going to be going forward.

Resolutions are funny things though, and can be quite superficial. There are plenty of statistics that show us how many will fail at resolutions just weeks or even days into their new habits. Not seeing these new habits through can be quite damaging to a person so think it through and make sure you’re ready to take it on before you set the goal.

This one’s a heartfelt chat with Sean and Ed but it’s chock full of tips to kick start your 2014. Happy New Year everyone!

Enjoy the show!

Resource of the Week (!)

  • Sean’s resource is to write that letter
  • Ed recommends a book by Michael Palin called Himalaya. Remember, ‘travel is the only thing that you can buy that makes you richer.’
