Episode 81: Depression or repression?
Create with Franz
02/20/22 β’ 33 min
Aaron Solly had all the reasons to rely on anti-depressants for the rest of his life: losing an important figure as a child, low self confidence, sadness, fear of facing his feelings.
In this remarkable interview he shares how he explored the deep reasons behind his depression, expressed what he had repressed for years, and found himself in the process.
He now helps others to do the same as a counsellor and coach.

Episode 103 'Listening with the intent of understanding'
Create with Franz
08/01/22 β’ 22 min
I've been researching a bit more about clean communication, and in this episode I will share the six aspects of black and white thinking. This is a typical situation when we just listen to our drums, ignore others and any evidence we might possibly have got something wrong. Aside from the basic morals about of life, death, violence, etc where it's quite clear what is good, in many occasions we can expand our knowledge and understanding by taking some time to listen to the other side.
It's not always about who is right but about calming those unquenchable flames we throw at those who don't agree with our perfect thinking.

In this episode I look back at 6 amazing clients who had issues with:
Weight loss not happening despite good efforts
Lack of self confidence in relationships, at work, and at University
Anger or inability to express themselves healthily
Need to smoke when under pressure
Procrastination and self sabotage
.....And much more!
All six of these clients had experienced situations in the past when they lost self belief, self love, confidence and purpose. The situation changed when they connected the dots!
In this case, a family member's actions were the culprit. Could this be true for you too?

Are you looking for answers and daily tools to help you with your feelings of being lost, lacking purpose, feeling you are not enough and even self sabotaging your own success? This interview will give you all that and much more.
Join us as Madgalena Lyle takes us to a journey into the emotions that block our success and inner harmony. Using channeling, RTT, and advanced conversational hypnosis, Magdalena unveils the reasons why we simply cannot move on and live the life we really want, and the fact that they are inside ourselves.
Using tools that specifically rewire our neurons and shed light on the real stumbling block we have not yet addressed, we can reach for our inner mind, our very soul and embrace a whole concept of us as a being who is loved by the Universe and is here to thrive.
Madgalena quotes from Gary Lee (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jIUIcYQbBQ)
One of the tools we mention in this episode is the use of journalling. Before you brush this off as something designed only for women, or a woo-woo idea, please bear in mind that journaling is a brief yet highly effective science-supported habit.
If you seek for more information on an effective way of using journaling and you like data-based research on it, please go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAZn9dF3XTo.
In this episode, Professor Andrew Huberman from Stanford University outlines a specific writing protocol shown in hundreds of scientific studies to significantly improve immediate and long-term health. Journal writing, in fact, affects neuroplasticity (brain rewiring) and brain function in the short and long term.
These brain changes positively impact our physical health, including our system's immune function and thus our ability to combat infections, improve sleep, reduce feelings of physical and emotional pain, lower anxiety, and bring about healing from traumas.
Just think how much easier your life can be, and how much clarity you can achieve, when you learn to be still and listen to your own thoughts, instead of giving in to the huge pressure that activists, social media, marketing companies, movies and adverts put on us on a daily basis.
Learn what you really want from life and why, find your passions and bring light into problems that seem unsolvable.
If you liked this episode, please click on 'like' and share it so that more people can find our little channel and be helped on their way to live the life they dreamed of and that had never materialised.
Thank you so much for listening!
