How to create affirmations that will help families through challenging times

How to bring self-love and self-compassion into your life

This episode features my interview with David Ekram as we discuss how to bring self-love and self-compassion into your life.   I really appreciate all the content David shares with us from the summary of positive psychology to David Hamilton’s three stages of self to the description of Martin Seligman’s Perma of Authentic Happiness. He covers so many important topics and ideas from the importance of gratitude, spirituality to breathwork and meditation. This is our longest episode in the Hope Strength Courage podcast series.   David does a phenomenal job of covering the huge topic of positive psychology and distilling it down to the a few key topics.   This 26th episode in the Hope Strength Courage Podcast is our final episode for the series but I invite you to check out all the other episodes if you haven’t already. I highly recommend starting at episode #1 for my interview with world renown pediatric surgeon, Dr Bernie Seigel as we discuss how to talk to our children when they are ill. I hope you will enjoy all the interviews in the Hope Strength Courage series as much as I did.  Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/hope-strength-courage [http://supporter.acast.com/hope-strength-courage]. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

How to include nutritious foods into your diet for health

Now for today’s episode which features my interview with Whole Food Nutritionist Tina Jo Stephens as we discuss how we can use diet to heal our lives.   Last week was part three of my interview with NLP Practitioners Ed Olvera and Jacquie Nagy and we spoke with then about using cognitive behavior therapy to help us become more hopeful.   This week Tina Jo talks with us about how the food we eat makes a difference in how we feel. And the importance of finding foods that heal and sustain our bodies. Both for our children and ourselves. She talks about how to marry nutrition and how to make really good food taste good, in her words to make it taste scrumptious.   What I loved about this interview is how Tina explains that this is a family adventure. And she reminded me about things I had forgotten to do myself for our family. I appreciate all the great pieces of advice she shares throughout the interview from her experiences caring for her younger brother. Everything from letting go of guilt to remembering to ask for help. Such great reminders that stand the test of time. They were helpful when my daughter was in treatment and continue to be helpful years later. I hope you will enjoy this interview as much as I did.   Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/hope-strength-courage [http://supporter.acast.com/hope-strength-courage]. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

How cognitive behaviour therapy can help us become more hopeful

Now for today’s episode which features my interview with Psychologist Dr Wendy Ulrich as we discuss how cognitive behavior therapy can help us become more hopeful. Last week we spoke with NLP Practitioners Jacquie Nagy and Ed Olvera about how to take time for selfcare and relaxation and I love that this week’s conversation with Wendy picks right where they left off. She shares an amazing definition of hope and talks about how we can find meaning in the most difficult situations. When we retrain our brain to look at things differently, we can calm our brains to find peace and override the negative thoughts we generate when we become depressed.   I hope you will enjoy this interview as much as I did.   Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/hope-strength-courage [http://supporter.acast.com/hope-strength-courage]. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

How to take time for self care and relaxation

Today’s episode features part 3 of my interview with NLP Practitioners Jacquie Nagy and Ed Olvera.   In part 1 and 2, Jacquie and Ed gave us an overview of Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and we discussed how to use NLP and Breathing to manage daily stress. Jacquie shared her four steps to shift from overwhelm to intentional resourceful living and three of her ten daily habit to start her day. This week Ed continues the conversation about what we can do when we are in overwhelm, how to move from one state to another, and he shares an amazing, guided mediation with us.
