As we learn more and more of these practices, do we get to a place where we are healed? I answer this question in today's podcast.

In today's podcast, I answer a question from one of my students dealing with her ageing mother. This podcast will be helpful if you struggle to have boundaries with people in your life. 

One of my students wrote that she has many aches and pains when she sits down to do her meditation practice. How wonderful!

As humans, complaining is a way for us to release tension and bond with others. It can also be a form of venting frustration or connecting with others who share in your feelings. But does complaining make you feel better? It's a way to let off steam, and that's fine, but does it help you feel better in the long run? In today’s episode, we will discuss a new way to connect with ours.

It can be challenging for us when we come up against the ignorance of others. How do we cope? And today's podcast, I answer a question about this from one of my students.

It can be challenging to understand what others go through, especially if it is not our own experience. In today's podcast, I discuss one of my students finding something out about one of her friends.

I am noticing a trend that is worrying me. The way we are connecting is more disconnecting than ever. 

Last week I released a podcast called Happiness In The Midst Of Adversity. We got a lot of very positive feedback from it. However, there were some more clarifying questions that I answered in today’s Part 2. In order to achieve happiness, you must first accept the world as it is. This can be difficult to do because we are all conditioned to think that the world should be a certain way. We want things to go our way and when they don't, we become unhappy. The world is never going to be the way you want it to be. The world is always changing, and so are you. You can't control everything, but you can control your response to it. You may feel like you can't just accept the world as it is and achieve happiness at the same time. When there is so much adversity in the world, how can we be happy? In today’s podcast, I answer an important question about this from one of my students.

Some of us are currently in lockdown. This can be very challenging because the days have a tendency to bleed into each other. In today's podcast, I discuss how we can cope when things start getting dull in our lives, whether we are in a pandemic or not. 

I was listening to an interview a few days ago, which held what the speaker said was the most significant productivity hack. Let me tell you what it is.

If we want to move forward, there must be some elements of risk. How do we calculate if something is worth risking? 

When you want to achieve something a little bigger, like a small or even large project, a critical ingredient will save you so much time. In today’s podcast, I explain what it is.

How do we manage when things get out of hand in our lives? There is one easy strategy that also brings a considerable amount of satisfaction. 

You may feel like you can't just accept the world as it is and achieve happiness at the same time. You have to change it, make a difference and stand up against things that don’t align with your values. The world as it is isn't the way we want it to be. The good news is that we don't need to change the world to be happy, just ourselves. When we accept that there are things beyond our control--and accept them with grace--our lives become easier and more peaceful. In the end, it's important to remember that life is a journey. You can't control everything that happens and you shouldn't try. But at the same time, there are things in this world that are worth fighting for--and it’s okay to stand up for things that do not align with your values when those things occur in front of you. In today's episode, we will discuss an important question about how we can be happy even with so much adversity in the world.

There is a way to increase our happiness consistently. It is the practice of finding activities that bring us harmonious passion. In today’s podcast, I explain that what it is. 

I was with a friend at the weekend who got distracted by an email while we were hanging out. As I watched his stress levels rise, I realized there is an important question we need to ask ourselves often. 

It can be hard to say no. I have had a week of it. But as difficult as it may be it is also vital that we do. 

If we want peace in our lives and our world, we need to understand it starts with us. How do we find it?

I want to tell you about Joan. I’ve never met her, but she plays a significant role in my life.

People often get stuck in what they don’t want. I want you to use those things you don’t want to help you get ahead in your life. 

Sometimes all it takes is one small change to make a huge difference. In today’s podcast, I explain how to use a substitute.

The world is fast. Due to this, we can get caught up in an expectation that we put on ourselves to try and keep up.

One of the most important things for me over this last year is community. Being in a community with others not only supports our mental health it also helps us grow.
