The Mind and Fitness Podcast

I was browsing Instagram a couple of months ago and saw a post from Ryan Swobody in which he was talking about the necessity of making sure we're recognizing when we're on stress and emotional overload along with the things we can do to empty that filling bucket.  I knew I had to go and sit down and talk with him.  In this interview we talk about mental health but we also talk a lot about human connection and the impact human connection has on our health and wellness.

Vocabulary development could potentially be as beneficial for adults as it is children.  Imagine for a second if you could muster the strength to put "I Feel," before saying something.  "Honey, I feel really overwhelmed and ashamed that I did that," has a lot more power (for you) than "That pisses me off!"  In this episode, I discuss vocabulary development and how you can strengthen it.

Hear how a shift in how someone thought about the root of her symptoms completely took them away.  This is a powerful 70 minutes of audio gold with someone who kicked TMS' ass not once but twice.  We talk through her variety of symptoms and flares, her own cure, her relapse and how she ultimately coped with the relapse and adjusted her life afterward.  Truly powerful.
