Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 5 Episode 59 of People Soup.P Soupers - Compassion is a theme that's been on my mind over the last few weeks, what with travel, preparing proposals, catching up on business admin and curating the podcast, I realise that I haven't always adopting a stance of kindness and compassion towards myself, I've been feeling a bit pooped.With that in mind we're revisiting part two of my chat with Dr Stan Steindl today. We talk about his brilliant book - The Gifts of Compassion, how to understand and overcome suffering.Stan talks about his intention for the book and then we move on to the development of the compassionate other, tapping into our intuitive wisdom, bringing compassion to organisations and the associated fears, blocks and resistances. We finish with a tremendous takeaway from Stan where he introduces the compassion ladder.Headline news is that I've decided that it's time for a People Soup Summer Break and this will be the final episode of Season 5.Fear not P -Soupers - because we'll be back in matter of weeks with Season 6 - with new guests, more short cup-a-soup episodes and the continuation of my exploration of psychological flexibility with Dr Richard MacKinnon.

Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 5 Episode 58 of People Soup.P Soupers - what were you doing on 28 November 2020. I can tell you what I was doing in the late afternoon - I was chatting to Dr Eric Goodman - anxiety specialist and author - about his book - Your Anxiety Beast and You: A Compassionate Guide to Living in an Increasingly Anxious World - recorded in an echoey room in our rented apartment in Malaga. We're revisiting part two of that conversation today. Partly because Eric speaks about anxiety in such a human and relatable way, so it's useful for us all to check in with his wisdom. And also because Eric has written another book - called The Mindful Freak-out: A rescue manual for being at your best when life is at it's worst." And well be having him back on the show to talk about that book over the next couple of months.We start with my review, find out what the toughest animal on the planet is and talk about the human superpower of mental time travel. You also find out how we can teach our anxiety, which often has a better safe than sorry mentality. We finish with an insight in to the illustrations in the book - by dear and much missed friend of the show - Louise Gardner, your ACT Auntie. It's a joy to hear Eric reflect on the process of working with Lou.People Soup is an award winning podcast where we share evidence based behavioural science, in a way that’s practical, accessible and fun.
