    111. The healing power of nature

    111. The healing power of nature

    This week we're discussing the secret and the science behind the healing powers of nature. Our generation has become increasingly detached from the outdoors and our wild roots, with over 90% of our days spent indoors or on a screen, often at the expense of our mental wellbeing, sense of self, psychological and spiritual connection with the land and overall physical health. In this episode we explore ideas around nature deficit disorder, recent longitudinal studies on the impacts of green spaces on our mental health and practices such as forest bathing, forest schools, water therapy and what we can learn from the deep connection that Indigenous groups have with the land. We also discuss how we can easily integrate more time outdoors into our daily routine to radically improve our psychological wellbeing. Listen now.

    Zach Braff On: Anxiety, Sobriety, Insomnia, Grief, Social Media, and the Meaning of the Tattoo on His Wrist

    Zach Braff On: Anxiety, Sobriety, Insomnia, Grief, Social Media, and the Meaning of the Tattoo on His Wrist

    Today’s episode is a wide-ranging Interview with Zach Braff, one of those rare famous people who’s really willing to go there. 


    You may know Braff from the TV show Scrubs or the movie Garden State but Braff is actually a genuine multi-hyphenate; a true triple threat. He acts, writes and directs his own movies and other people’s TV shows including Ted Lasso on Apple TV. Relatively recently he put out a new movie that he both wrote and directed called A Good Person starring Florence Pugh and Morgan Freeman.  


    In this episode we talked about anxiety, depression, insomnia, addiction, grief, social media usage, and what he means by “learning to love your fate”—a notion that is literally tattooed on his wrist. 


    This Interview was conducted in person at the TED conference in Vancouver this past April.

    We got ROBBED in St Tropez

    We got ROBBED in St Tropez

    Surviving a break-in is like being catapulted into an action movie you never auditioned for. In that moment, time seems to stand still as you navigate a maze of emotions - fear, shock, and a newfound appreciation for every breath you take. It's like a wake-up call that shakes you to your core, reminding you of the fragility of life and the resilience that resides within you. Despite the chaos and uncertainty, surviving that harrowing experience empowers you like nothing else.

    Today, Violetta is going to share what transpired during her recent trip to St. Tropez. The energy is electric as she tries her best to get close to her newfound friends and then realizing that despite the initial connections, something feels off. From worse to worst, the house she had been staying with the group had been robbed! The realization hits like a tidal wave - the house had been robbed. But amidst the trauma and the missing personal belongings, there's a glimmer of gratitude. She's safe, unharmed, and reminded of the irreplaceable value of life.

    St. Tropez may have thrown unexpected twists her way, but she's determined to let this experience shape her into a woman who cherishes every moment, holds onto what truly matters, and never takes her safety and well-being for granted.

    • The 5 shocking things that most men in your life are struggling with
    • One habit that has helped hundreds of thousands of people to start showing self-love
    • Why it’s so hard to love yourself and the secret to self-love
    • The science behind why this habit is transformative
    • The profound insight my husband Chris had when he took the 5-day challenge 

     

    Love is not something you feel; it’s something you must demonstrate.

     

    Xo, Mel

    How To Make The 4 Most Important Decisions In Life That Impact 90% Of Your Happiness & Avoid Unnecessary Pain And Stress

    How To Make The 4 Most Important Decisions In Life That Impact 90% Of Your Happiness & Avoid Unnecessary Pain And Stress

    If you are at a crossroad and can't seem to decide what to do next, then this episode is for you. 

    When you're stuck and are still trying to find your purpose, you're in the right place. 

    I am so excited to share with you the conversation I had with Anas Bukhash, a Dubai native motivational speaker. He is a notable figure in the UAE's entrepreneurial and motivational landscape.

    It is truly enlightening when a conversation doesn't just focus on finding love and how to be in service to others, but also touches on how we can rise from making bad choices in life. 

    Anas has laid out some of the most challenging yet motivating questions where I talk about why we shouldn't pass along the generational trauma we picked up from our parents and the good and bad side of our ego. Yes, ego can be beneficial when we learn to acknowledge that success is a team effort. 

    On to the topic of my personal journey, I open up about how I dealt with loss and grief, the pivots I had made that completely changed the trajectory of my life, and overcoming the adversaries that came with it. 

    What's the biggest lesson I've learned to this day? The truth that happiness can't be forced. It comes naturally when you know how to love yourself by staying healthy. 

    Today, you will learn:

    - How to live a life of purpose

    - The important choices we make that greatly impacts our goals

    - How to deal with the loss of a loved one or friend

    - The level of emotional mastery we need to develop

    - How to use ego to your advantage

    - The truth about generational trauma

    - The real definition of genuine love

    Don't miss this life changing conversation that revolves around personal growth, healing, and making better life choices.

    With Love and Gratitude,

    Jay Shetty

    98. The psychology of self sabotage

    98. The psychology of self sabotage

    Sometimes our biggest enemy isn't others, it's ourselves. Self sabotage is a complicated psychological experience whereby we unconsciously undermine our own goals and wellbeing because of an implicit belief that we don't deserve our success, are afraid of failure, or cannot allow ourselves to be happy. From dating people we shouldn't, to procrastination, indecision, doom scrolling and self destructive behaviours, it all comes down to our unconscious beliefs about our self worth. Today we explore the origins and causes of self sabotage, from Freud's ideas of the 'death drive' and 'anti-self', coping mechanisms, to the impact of unresolved emotional trauma and self punishment to understand why it is we self sabotage, and how we can get out of our own way. Listen now.

    Why Dwight from The Office (Rainn Wilson) Is Calling for a “Spiritual Revolution”

    Why Dwight from The Office (Rainn Wilson) Is Calling for a “Spiritual Revolution”

    Why, you might fairly ask, am I interviewing Rainn Wilson, best known for his star turn on the sitcom The Office playing Dwight Schrute, the hilariously dysregulated paper salesman with a lust for power and a tragic haircut? Why, you may ask, am I interviewing that dude about mental health and spirituality?


    Because in real life, Rainn Wilson has spent many, many years wrestling with religion, sobriety, and marital ups and downs, and he's got a new book called Soul Boom in which he cracks a lot of jokes and also makes a dead serious case for a spiritual revolution. (I'll explain exactly what he means by that.) 


    In this episode we talk about:


    • the role of the Baha'i faith in his life
    • why he was so miserable at the height of The Office's popularity
    • what he considers his greatest achievement in life
    • the importance of spiritual pilgrimage 
    • the ingredients of the perfect religion, which he insists must include potlucks. 


    A little bit more about Rainn: he won three Emmys for his work on The Office. He hosts a podcast called Metaphysical Milkshake, and he's got a new travel series on Peacock called Rainn Wilson and the Geography of Bliss.

    #364 Lessons From The World’s Longest Scientific Study of Happiness with Robert Waldinger and Marc Schulz

    #364 Lessons From The World’s Longest Scientific Study of Happiness with Robert Waldinger and Marc Schulz

    By the end of today’s episode, I’m pretty sure you’ll feel inspired to reconnect with an old friend, phone that family member you don’t see enough, or make plans for a face-to-face get-together. You’ll feel happier, and even be healthier if you do, because the quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives.


    My guests, Professors Robert Waldinger and Marc Schulz are co-authors of The Good Life: Lessons From The World’s Longest Scientific Study of Happiness. They are the directors of the Harvard Study of Adult Development which is an extraordinary research project that started back in 1938 and is now in its 85th year.


    Robert is Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.  He is also a Zen priest and meditation teacher. Marc is Professor of Psychology and Director of Data Science at Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania and is also a practicing therapist.


    They are both passionate about spreading the crucial message that high-quality relationships are one of the biggest predictors of happiness, health and longevity and, therefore, prioritising how and with whom you spend your time may just be one of the most important things you can do for your mental and physical health.


    We discuss why loneliness increases our risk of death in comparable ways to smoking or obesity and what this 85-year-old study can teach all of us about how to have a meaningful and satisfying life. The study followed the same participants and their families, taking biological measurements and asking detailed questions. Its goal has always been to understand contentment and what it really means to live a good life.


    We talk about different types of relationships and how toxic friendships and partnerships can be damaging. We also discuss why frequency and quality both matter when it comes to our relationships, the importance for all of us to have one or two ‘securely attached’ relationships and we discuss the fact that vibrant social lives and close relationships, don’t come easily to everyone.


    Robert and Marc share some fantastic insights on what people can do if they are struggling, the importance of listening and being ‘radically curious’ and how we can nurture better relationships with ourselves.


    This really was an uplifting and inspiring conversation with two wonderful human beings. I hope you enjoy listening.

    How To Stop Loneliness

    How To Stop Loneliness

    Welcome to The Mindset Mentor Podcast where in today’s episode I’m going to be telling you the truth about where most lonely feelings come from, and…

    I’m going to explain how you can build yourself up to be bulletproof against loneliness by becoming whole within yourself.

    And yes… I’m addressing one extremely big misconception that’s out there. That’s the idea that getting into a relationship will cure loneliness, and help us fix ourselves.

    When in reality we need to first do the work internally to “fix” ourselves and become whole, BEFORE we can truly have anything to offer in a relationship with another human being.

    Once you can find wholeness within yourself, then you will be able to consciously decide everyday to be happy. It is within your control to get to be happy and not have to experience “loneliness” ever again.

    If you like this episode…

    Make sure to share it with someone that needs to hear it and help us get the message out there so that together we can help make people’s lives better and make the world a better place.

    And I almost forgot… I’m still offering out this special gift I put together just for everyone who listens to this podcast.

    It will actually help you start experiencing transformation in your life by discovering more of what there is to love about yourself…

    So while you’re doing your best to grow through what you go through..

    The “Performance Whisperer” George Mumford Has Deep Strategies for Flow and Success

    The “Performance Whisperer” George Mumford Has Deep Strategies for Flow and Success

    Perhaps nobody is better at helping people unlock themselves than the Buddhist meditation teacher George Mumford who taught meditation to Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant. He's also worked with inmates, police officers, and corporate executives. There’s a reason why they call him the “Performance Whisperer.”


    George has an incredible story: he began teaching mindfulness and meditation after kicking a serious drug habit, leaving a career as a financial analyst, and then earning a master's in counseling psychology. He's got a new book, it's called Unlock: Embrace Your Greatness. Find the Flow. Discover Success


    His first book was called The Mindful Athlete: The Secret to Pure Performance. If you want to hear him talk about that book, we've put links in the show notes to his prior appearances on this podcast. 


    In this episode we talk about:

    • What it means to be in flow and why many of us may be achieving that state more than we think
    • How to challenge negative self-talk
    • The importance of gratitude
    • The importance of service
    • The importance of making mistakes (as George says, “no struggle, no swag”)
    • How to recognize what he calls your hideouts 
    • Why he identifies as an empath and why he believes this may have played a role in his addiction
    • And George’s take on often misunderstood terms such as love, hope, and faith
