The Next Generation Wellness Podcast

Stress is a misunderstood and multifaceted beast. It precipitates unwanted auto-pilot behaviours, and begins a whole series of negative biochemical, hormonal and cellular events inside the body, placing us in an inflammatory state. This state over time can lead to mental health challenges such as depression and anxiety, physical challenges such as disease, pain and weight gain, as well as self sabotaging behaviours, all of which keep us stuck in the cycle.Stress is so often perceived as something outside of our control, so in this episode we unpack this beast so that you can find some easy steps to reduce its stranglehold and minimise some of the physical and mental experiences the may be your reality.https://www.thewholelifesuccessplanner.com

So often we get caught up on WHAT we eat, the confusion and the extremes, that we forget to focus in on HOW we eat, and oh my, how it mattersIn this Habit Stacker episode, I share four non-negotiable eating habits and why they're so important in your feeling vibrant and energised......or not!https://www.thewholelifesuccessplanner.com

If you've listened to the previous episode, you now know exactly what to eat for abundant energy, balanced mood and managed weight.BUT, you and I know that quite often the logic doesn't win. You and I know, that sometimes we're eating or drinking something we wish we weren't. Sometimes we recognise it in the very moment it is happening, and yet still we continue. Other times, we've inhaled the thing before we've even noticed. In either case, if we're not hungry, why do we eat?In this episode of The Next Generation Wellness Podcast, we unpack those possible hidden motivators for consumption. When you know them, you can change them.https://www.thewholelifesuccessplanner.com

Our bodies are the most remarkable vessels. With 11 organ systems constantly working in beautiful synergistic harmony.With trillions of bacteria communicating for mental wellbeing and emotion calm, managing our addictions and digesting our food.With trillions of cells functioning and repairing so that we have energy and vitality.When those systems are nourished and functioning optimally, our experience of life is that of energy, pain free, balanced mood and emotions, and clarity of mind. On the flip side, if we have lived a life of calorie restricting diets, processed foods, coffee and alcohol, we have essentially starved, destroyed and inflamed these systems, cells and bacteria.The result?  The very common symptoms of fatigue, poor quality sleep, anxiety, depression, irritability, skin conditions, headaches/migraines, inflammatory conditions, low immunity, weight gain, PMS, menopausal symptoms.......and the list goes on.Food has become so complicated, so in this Habit Stacker episode, we take the guess work out of knowing what quantities and types of food we should aim to include daily, during 70-80% of our days.  

The Truth About Calories- a lesson in long-term health and wellbeing.It’s time to stop playing a game of mathematics at every mouthful and instead learn some truths about your body.https://www.thewholelifesuccessplanner.com 

Success in most arenas, including the human body, doesn’t come through giant and bold actions. It comes through minor, sometimes mundane and deceptively, inconsequential actions.In this episode, we converse on the things that drive discipline and the things that create a personal self-concept of being undisciplined.

The Body.It has the power to bring joy and happiness, or pain and frustration.Confidence.... or limits.Personal integrity...... or self sabotage.Strong connections.... or isolation.Vibrancy....or fatigue.It holds such a powerful hand in our experience of life.Our body can lead us resiliently through challenge or add to the challenges we face collectively today.In this season of The Next Generation Wellness Podcast we unpack all things body, so that you can live your most vibrant, energised, happy and fulfilling life. 

2020 saw the freedoms and connections that we had taken for granted, get taken away, and whilst many people are placing big expectations on 2021 to be brighter, it can be a risky expectation. In this episode, I share with you a better way to transition into 2021 equipped with more than just hope and expectations.https://www.thewholelifesuccessplanner.com

If you've ever been told to 'fake it until you make it' or 'not to worry about what people think',  in order to step bravely and confidently into an area of life, you know as well as I do that this type of rhetoric is not hugely helpful.If this episode sheds some light on some of your self-confidence blocks, I'd be so grateful for your time in reviewing The Next Generation Wellness Podcast.

Of course you've heard the 'affirmation' rhetoric.Confirm who you are and what you want to be.But if you're like me, and an affirmation usually drives your mind to scream back skepticism and self-criticism, then this episode is for you.

Anxiety is an emotional response, that no human is immune to experiencing.Sometimes however, its stranglehold becomes painfully limiting. Sometimes it stops us excelling in life. Sometimes it stops us feeling enriched by life.https://www.thewholelifesuccess.com

We're told failure is a positive thing. But if you're like me and you've been rewarded for achievement through life, there's a pretty potent fear of failure.Being told that failure is important doesn't help to diminish that fear a whole lot. There is a way out however, through these five simple questions I outline in this Habit Stacker episode.https://www.thewholelifesuccess.com

There’s nothing more frustrating than when you set your mind to doing something and then you go about doing the complete opposite.In that very moment we begin the slippery slope downward into self-criticism, self-doubt and a very dangerous discipline of letting self down.In this episode, we take a deeper look at a little but powerful something that sits beneathyour goal and does a mighty fine job of driving you toward self-sabotage.https://www.thewholelifesuccess.com

Live into your ambitions with greater joy, vibrancy and meaning.In this Habit Stacker episode, I give you a simple example of habit change success in action. It's quick, simple and shows you exactly what you can do in your own life to finally achieve what you seek to achieve. https://www.thewholelifesuccess.com

How do I stay on track? I’m undisciplined? How do I keep motivation? It never seems towork?

To a more fulfilling and joyous level.And regardless of the specifics and their story, the process remains the same, and in thisEpisode I am sharing that process with you.https://www.thewholelifesuccess.com
