I’ve been back in rehearsal this evening for the Cardiff Open Air Theatre Festival! I’ll be playing Apostle Philip in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Jesus Christ Superstar! One thing I felt immediately upon entering that room was the feeling of togetherness and family. Here are my thoughts. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hellotomdyer/message

Before COVID-19 hit i was due to give a talk to University of South Wales on bouncing back after troubles. This came about due to a connection on LinkedIn and I promised I would record something that they could share. What’s important to me is interaction and connection on a public speech so this in no way reflects how I would have talked on the day but it’s the best I could muster in my kitchen!

Hello and welcome to another HelloTomDyer Recap! It’s World Health Day 2020 with the theme being heavily focussed on the frontline staff taking on the COVID-19 pandemic. My Facebook Live episodes have been no different. We’ve had numerous questions relating to corona virus and how we’re able to maintain our routine to keep our heads sane. I feel very privileged that my natural state is very malleable so that I can adapt to pretty much any situation. Whether it’s lockdown in a house or trekking the Inca Trail; I just get on with things. This is not easy for everyone though and I hope that my insights on the Facebook Lives are providing a different perspective and helping alleviate any issues you may be having.

This week sees us at the end of isolation week #1. For some people it’s been a really difficult time while for others it’s really kicked off their creativity. I think I’ve been in the middle of these too. My head has been all over the place and in some areas unmotivated but completely driven to succeed in other areas. Primarily, wanting to become a coach; more on this later. This recap episode really is a recap on the daily live-streams I’ve committed to now we’re in lockdown. It’s something I’ve always wanted to do, share my point of view, and now I’ve got this time to do it. I’m still working in the day so I’m not as productive as I’d like to be on my things, trawling back through my videos and finding little sound bites to share - but I’ve got the clearest plan I’ve had in a long time!

Sometimes we have to deal with people who we don’t actually want to be around. This can make things tiresome and loathsome but for many of us we don’t have a choice. Tase people may be friends of friends, our work colleagues, and even family. I’ve given ten minutes of my time to consider how what I’ve learnt from ACT and Solution Focus can help me in situations where I may be with people who may not necessarily want to be around, and hopefully, these hints will help you too.

These are my thoughts on the Corona Virus (I’m not an expert). Well, my thoughts pre the Prime Ministers press conference which really shed a different light on what it feels like to be living in this country while on an unofficial lockdown. The sentiments still ring through in this episode. Please look after yourself. Please look after others. Please be empathetic and please don’t panic buy; that doesn’t help anyone. If you want a handy little video to show what the government’s plan was / is, look up gardener and his water bucket explaining NHS capacity and if you want to know about how infection spreads look up Scrubs Dr Kelso explains infections... perfectly shows why social distancing is required.

Why now? This is a question I was asked last week and although I was expecting it I didn’t anticipate that the sudden death of a former work colleague in his 50s would put that question into stark realisation that ‘now’ is all we have. Why now? Because I am alive and breathing right now Why now? Because tomorrow may never come Why now? Because those who I want to spend tomorrow with might not be there? Why now? Because I have found something that gives me vitality and vibrancy that makes me want to sing and dance everyday - not just now and then. Why now? Because one day it will be too late. We all sit back and relax into our habits and dream of the lives we could be leading or the tasks we could be doing thinking that time is something we’ll always have. We all succeed at dying. I want us all to succeed at living Why now? Because I dream like I’ll live forever, but I live like I’ll die tomorrow. And lastly, before I leave to your week. I need your help...

Self-Esteem. I got asked for my point of view on self-esteem and to be honest, it’s such a huge subject I don’t know if I’ve done this topic justice. Which is an ironic opening sentence to 10 minutes on self-esteem. I typically refer to myself as someone with low self-esteem but I’ve learnt over the years to still live my life with my value of self-esteem. For example, I’m about to press send on a video of my face talking about self-esteem not really being an expert in the field but talking through my experiences and how I see mindfulness helping my self-esteem; my low self-esteem no longer stops me acting in a way that is congruent with who I really am. The bullets against self-esteem are comparison, feedback and expectation. Once we’re able to put these aspects of our life in a little box and not be governed by them, we can be who we are supposed to be.

This week I fell victim of a lack of patience. I got quite selfish and believed that everything should be easy. All because I stood out of my comfort zone and got knocked back at the first attempt. This is what we do when things get hard. We sit back and we think, “well, that was a nice idea but it obviously wasn’t for me. I’ll go back to my comfortable ways and watch others learn and train and do the thing I want to do.” I forgot that after the initial upset of not getting something, the next step is to always look at what are we going to do about it? Are we going to sit back and do nothing about it? Or are we going to get back to work and knuckle down on the shortfall? Please don’t think I’m asking you to ignore your feelings? Feel those feelings. Be disappointed or sad. But pick yourself back and go for the next one. Don’t dwell. And lastly, before I leave to your week. I need your help...

This was a difficult 10 minutes to talk about. For someone who assists people with their mental health, it’s always hard to hear that someone has decided to end their life. I was not the biggest fan of Caroline Flack. As a result, I didn’t take much interest in her life. Yet still, reading the news last week that she’s killed herself still hit me harder than I probably realised at the time. My sister even feels the same way. Reading the comments and the hate that she received by pursuing her path is upsetting. It’s upsetting because we share this world with those who took the time to spread the hate and vitriol that led her to feel that she had no other option. I mention the twitter @secretbarrister I mention @tferriss I mention Danny Cirpriani I don’t mention The Samaritans but please talk and reach out to help yourself and others.

I read a tweet from @yestheory the other day, “Life’s beauty is directly proportional to the amount of calculated risk you’re willing to take. Take the risk.” And that is the theme of this weeks episode. I’m in a period of risk taking as far as pride and embarrassment are concerned and I’m tackling them head on because I want to see the beauty in life around and within me.

In 2019 I took part in my first Ignite Cardiff event at The Glee Club Cardiff and talked about acting and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). The response in the room was fantastic so I'm sharing with you to give you permission to put aside your worrying thoughts about yourself and what others may think and just do what it is you want to do. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hellotomdyer/message

This last week we lost an American icon, Kobe Bryant. With him his daughter and the family of others as well. It’s such a tragic loss. I grew up wishing that American dream and playing basketball in school very aware of Kobe and Shaq playing for the Lakers. It’s so sad that he’s and the others have been taken so young. It reminds us that we should love our fullest lives everyday. Life is a miracle and there is beauty all around us. We just need to take time to see it. We can all take some time to view the pleasure and treasure around us as highlighted in Mindfulness for Health (Vidyamala Burch and Danny Penman). Hug your close ones closer and open your eyes to the world around you. You might not see tomorrow —————————————— @HelloTomDyer www.hellotomdyer.com www.hellotomdyershop.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hellotomdyer/message

First of all thank you to everyone who reached out last week. I know it wasn’t the pleasant of listening but as I explain in this video sharing the lows as well as the highs is important. Thank you also to the mystery donor or Jen Sincero’s ‘You Are A Badass’ left on my desk. Thank you. This week I talk about habits and how I basically these last couple of months, probably going back to the tail end of summer how much I’ve lapsed in my good habits! So this is a little declaration to start good habits and therefore breaking bad ones - my worst being procrastination. Have a great week everyone. You are extraordinary —————————————— @HelloTomDyer www.hellotomdyer.com www.hellotomdyershop.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hellotomdyer/message
