In Our Nature
Why do we feel so overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected and lost...and what does that have to do with what's happening on our planet?
This show explores the hidden connections and deeper patterns that are forming our inner struggles and the wider crises unfolding around us. From mental health to ecological collapse, productivity culture to planetary grief, from burnout to reconnection, join me to poke around in the stories, systems and patterns shaping this extraordinary time...
...and then let's riff on what becomes possible when we stop pretending it’s fine and feel the feels.
Your host is me: Siobhán Friel. I'm a mental health practitioner, a Work That Reconnects facilitator and I was probably a lavender plant in a past life.
This podcast offers a way to make sense of your inner and outer world, especially if you were shaped by capitalism (like me) and not by a lineage of ecological literacy, love and wisdom.
You haven't missed the boat. There are many boats and this is one. Get in.
In Our Nature
Should We Try to Manage, Control or Change Our Thoughts? (Part 1)
I'm recovering from a cold so if you can handle the un-edit-out-able sniffles, then join me while we take a look at managing, controlling or changing our thoughts.
Come and explore:
- What is thought work??
- Should we be doing it? Why? When?
- What is thought anyway? (Erm, we talk about this all the time!)
- How does understanding the nature of thoughts and feelings help us decide whether to poke or work on our thoughts?
- And, as warned, sniffles and heavy breathing. You lucky ducks 🦆
