Fan Favorite James Thayer is back with Ian to discuss an expansion on episode 6, "Courage Vs. Cowardice". This week we dive into one of James' concepts of "sitting at the table with our demons." These may be known as "negative" emotions or traits and the vocabulary we use to associate with them. We encourage the growth of uncovering the significance of sitting with them in gathering perspective, circumstance, acceptance and the development of awareness. In the end, we reflect with our best techniques we have used to define and grow our emotional capacity in life and sport. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/reflexionradio/message

Ian breaks down a very, if not the most crucial topic in nutrition: The complexities of calories in Vs. calories out. (CICO) How and why we should end the debates yet validate the complexity of our bodies. We start by finding common ground (start to the 20-minute mark) and dig into the complexities but remove the oversimplification of our body to simplify our mindset. At the 20-40 minute mark, we talk about common dilemmas people face with those complexities (PCOS, Thyroid issues or age) and how CICO can be viewed as still the primary focus. Be sure to listen in, one of my favourites for sure. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/reflexionradio/message
