Welcome to the first part in the Mental Health Series happening this month of October. Each episode a different view of mental health and what we can do in this time of COVID and how we can take care not only of our physical health but mental health as well.

Pyro has a few technical difficulties but manages to get you up to date on whats happening in the next few podcasts and a quick message of positivity.

This week Pyro talks about the significance of this holiday and why she is not feeling it as usual. The COVID rules and regulations have put a damper on things but as usual, she finds a silver lining. A much shorter episode than usual. Also, apologies for the quality of this one, I tried something new and it caused problems when uploading. Song of the week : Nkalakatha - Mandoza

Pyro is still dealing with editing difficulties and eventually got this upload done! Today's topic follows on last weeks "hustle culture" episode by addressing burnout and taking time to relax and recover.

Today's talk is all about hustle culture. Pyro finally has a theme for each episode, so going forward should be smooth. Pyro tells us about her weekend, which was jam packed and not in a good way. How she fell into the trap of feeling the need to constantly keep moving and what is going to happen now that everything has changed in the modern era we live in. Enjoy the episode!
