Self Love Podcast

We can be aware of all the messages about avoiding herbicides, pesticides and foods laden with other chemicals. We know how important the air we breathe can be when it comes to moulds and viruses. But what about what touches your skin?  If you are looking for strong reasons why you should step up and change, or slowly exchange each product you have for better products, here’s 5 reasons why there i...

“And I feel like that’s very important. To be happy is to be able to look forward and say, alright now what? Now what is it I want to do in my life and how do I make that happen? Sometimes the adversity is the thing that actually gives you the gift of what it is that you want to create in your life.” Nicole Hannan Volleyball defined Nicole Hannan (nee Sanderson) for sixteen years and along with a...

In this week’s Quicky the question, ‘What is NLP?’ is answered. Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) was created by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in 1975. The techniques enable the individual to expand their own and others thinking. It is an incredibly powerful modality that also allows people to re-write the mind from negative self-talk and sabotaging patterns to positive highly successful empow...

“It’s not that negative or things have bought me down haven’t happened, but when I come through the other side then I know that it happened for a reason. Maybe I didn’t get an opportunity cos there’s something else that’s going to come up for me. And I really am trusting in the Universe in that way I suppose, to sound a bit woo woo. But everything always works out for me and that’s even something...

We hear it all the time – love yourself, look after yourself, be good to yourself, be positive – and we all know we should – but the truth is we find it much easier to dislike ourselves, beat ourselves up, knock ourselves and be negative! Why is that? Seriously what is this strange, degrading fallacy all about? It’s time to stop, take stock and love who we are and acknowledge no matter what we are...

“I am really transparent, and I think talking about things really helps. So, I probably waited 5 or 6 days, and I was actually really sick by the way, we waited a few days and then came on and started talking about the fact we had Covid and what was happening. And people were not just blown away, so grateful to be able to watch somebody talk through the process of what they were experiencing. Beca...

If you have been hit with a cough, cold, flu or even Covid you might be asking your immune system to step it up as you recover. The problem is if our immune system is a little rundown, or our reserves are low, then not only are these symptoms expected, but to heal fast can seem a little bit much to ask. So the key is to prepare and boost! Here are a few favourite tried and true remedies and foods...

Please Note: This interview includes conversation around alcohol abuse, depression, sexual trauma and domestic violence. If you need help or support in any way, please contact Lifeline on 131114. “And that judging of ourselves, of not being enough compared to, you know I like to think that the only comparison that we can ever truly make is our self to our self. And letting go of that judgement of...

“When our first little girl was four months old, I decided I wanted something new, and I wanted to know how we could live better lives, but also I wanted to be a better example for them. I sort of made a pact with myself that I did not want them to grow up to feel the pain and illness I had experienced. So, I wanted to do everything possible to help them understand their bodies and grow up healthy...

Do you remember where you were when Lady Diana died? Michael Jackson, Steve Irwin, even Elvis Presley? What about horrible events like 9/11 or the Boxing Day Tsunami? And did you find as the news landed it hit you harder than you expected? Let’s be honest, even if someone like any of these people’s death hasn’t impacted you, you can probably think of another celebrity death that hit you harder tha...

‘I think he had a great heart, and that’s the beautiful thing, he had a great heart in terms of the love of the game, and the love particularly of his children. And I just think he gave so much to the game that you often hear, that he was there long after the others, signing autographs because let’s be real that’s what the kids wanted, they wanted Warnie’s autograph more than anyone else’s, and th...

Our beliefs and values drive our behaviours but knowing the difference between them can be a little confusing. People use both to guide all that they do in their actions and behaviour and they both help to form their attitudes towards different things, but essentially, they are different. Let’s take a look at how they differ. Beliefs are the convictions that we generally hold to be true, usually w...

I swap out words like degeneration for adaptation. It’s super important to describe it in a different way that gives your body the power back. When I’ve described that to many people it blows them away because as an example; degeneration makes everyone feel like they are falling apart and disintegrating. That’s not a great feeling to have when you are walking out of the office and think I’m degene...

If ever there was a year to truly challenge every facet of our being, every part of our lives and challenge it all on a global scale, then these past two years would win hands down. There is no doubt it has humbled us all and maybe for the first time as a community it has created space for honest reflection, a chance to look in the mirror and see what we can do better and how we can support one an...

‘I am very much a grey area thinker, I don’t fall into absolutes, I never have. Because absolutes never lead us to progress, never, ever. So, while questioning is really important, I fully condone questioning when something doesn’t seem right, unfortunately a lot of political forces take hold of people who are either vulnerable or questioning and get their single issue interest into multiple other...

The intense, rich, warm, floral scent of Jasminum officinale can be quite intoxicating and alluring. Jasmine, which is extracted from the exquisite white star-shaped flower, is one of the best essential oils to support the nervous and reproductive systems. With mild analgesic and anti-inflammatory qualities it is excellent to use in a massage blend to help alleviate muscle aches and pains and in s...

“What’s happening right now is very difficult, but again I find my peace within and also within my beautiful forest, which I’ve got next to my house. I walk in my forest every single day with my dog Shanti and that’s where I feel at peace. So it’s similar actually I was thinking about it the other day, it reminds me when I was younger I was doing the same thing, finding peace in nature. And now I...

There’s a simple concept called The Knowledge Pie. You probably already understand that you know what you know and you know that within what you know there is even more to know. And you also probably also appreciate that there is a whole lot that you know you don’t know that maybe there’s parts you’d even like to get to know. This is fantastic to know… but it could also be one of our greatest limi...

“Every experience in our life teaches us something. And whether it is positive or not positive or traumatic it teaches us something. If our lives were just like you know smooth and easy and happy and joyful, we would learn stuff for sure but it’s the crap in our life that we learn the most from. And is shows us who we are as people. And it really highlights emotional resilience and how we can step...

‘It’s about everybody feeling included in the community, because we know that the most important factor in a student’s wellbeing journey is the wellbeing of the parents. We cannot ignore that fact. Like that is so important. So that’s where I think schools have the opportunity to be a community of learning where they can provide learning, not just for the students but for parents and for the teach...

The concept of living above the line and below the line is one of the most fundamental concepts in conscious living. When we are below the line we are often closed, defensive, and committed to being right. On the contrary, when we are living above the line we are more open, curious, and committed to learning. In this podcast we look at how we can make an effort to live more above the line. Below t...

‘When we say we don’t have a second chance, there’s a very big variable in that and a very big grey area. There’s always the chance to evolve and grow, it’s whether we are able to hear it and to embrace that and to get the message that’s embedded in the experience. We generally are quite resistant to change. There’s a beautiful quote from my meditation teacher, ‘Suffering is proportional to our re...

Carl Jung said, ‘We cannot see the world as it is, but who we are.’ In this week’s quicky we explore what that means for each of us and how reality looks through our own eyes which is purely determined on how we perceive it. This one is a mind bender! We have to remind ourselves the world is not the way it is, but what we are. In this Quicky we take a look at how your experience of the world is ba...
