150. Active Rest — The Art of Self-Regulation

Do you ever take time off, spend a weekend resting, and still feel exhausted?   In this episode, we explore the difference between passive and active rest, and why just stopping isn’t always enough to restore your energy. Learn how to identify what kind of energy you’ve depleted—physical, mental, or emotional—and discover simple practices that can help you stay focused, balanced, resilient, and well-regulated.   Because the goal is not to rest when you’re already exhausted. It’s to recover in a way that helps you avoid exhaustion in the first place.

149. Workplace stress

Is there such a thing as “good stress” that helps you perform better? Many people live with constant stress at work and believe it’s normal, or even beneficial. In this episode, we explore the real impact of stress on the brain, productivity, emotions, and professional relationships. You’ll discover why stress is not a performance tool, but rather a sign that your system is overloaded. And you’ll learn how counselling can help you develop a calmer, more focused state of mind, free from the harmful effects of chronic stress.

148: Intercultural Couples

There are major challenges that arise when two very different ways of seeing the world try to build a life together. From habits and values to spirituality, family, and raising children.   In this episode, we talk about intercultural couples and explore how some differences can bring people closer… while others can create suffering and conflict. An episode about communication, respect, adaptation, and how to build bridges between different worlds without losing who we are.

147. Don’t waste the tiny things

Small moments and seemingly ordinary things can become powerful tools for well-being, emotional regulation, and inner transformation.   In this episode, I’ll show you how mindfulness can help you step out of autopilot, improve your emotional balance, and create a lighter, more conscious, and healthier life — not through big events, but through the apparently ordinary things of everyday life.

146. Emotional Hangover

Have you ever woken up exhausted without really knowing why? In this episode, I talk about emotional hangovers — that sense of depletion that can come after intense emotions, whether pleasant or unpleasant. You’ll understand why a simple conversation, a wonderful weekend, or a stressful moment can leave your body feeling overwhelmed the next day, and how you can help your nervous system move through emotional transitions more smoothly.
