You are listening to The Therapy Guy talking
about all things mental health, informing and supporting
you when you need it most.
Contact us for more information or with
any comments and please leave a review.
If you enjoy what you hear
Thanks for listening. Hello.
Welcome back to the therapy guy.
I hope you're keeping well and staying as
safe as you can during these unsettled times.
We were all seeking a lot of reassurance at the moment.
Today, however, I'm going to
be doing something different.
So today is going to be asking for your help.
I would like you to have some
feedback about the podcasts from yourself.
These podcasts are aimed at giving you what you
want and giving you the knowledge and the skills,
the understanding that you require and you need to
help with your mental health for yourself and for
the people that you support the most.
I've got a list of podcasts and list of subjects for
us to go through in future episodes, but I'd really like
to hear your comments on what you would prefer.
If there's something you would like me to
talk about or some area you'd like us
to sort of increase your awareness or knowledge
in, this is, after all, all about you.
Think about it almost like a radio station.
Sometimes you might contact that radio station and ask
for a particular song or request some particular music.
This is no different.
I want to adapt to what you want and give you
the knowledge and the expertise that you need to support people.
So if I give you an indication of some of the
things that we've got coming up in future podcasts and then
we can go from there, how does that sound?
So just to let you know what fantastic
subjects we got coming up in future podcasts,
we have trauma practitioner from a school.
They're going to be doing either coming in and speaking
to us directly or doing a blog for us to
read out on air to give you some information about
what a school trauma practitioner does and how they help
and support pupils and the students that they work with.
We have a podcast on fear and how to overcome
and conquer your thoughts when you're scared of something.
Narcissism this is something I've been asked quite
a lot for, so we have quite a
big episode coming up on Narcissism.
What it is, what are the traits and what
you can do to either support someone going through
it or to change those sorts for yourself.
Gas lighting, it's another area that we
get asked for quite a lot.
So an area that I'm quite passionate about is control.
And what control do we have over our lives and how
does that affect our anxiety and stress that we feel?
Also, another area for me is those ways that
we waste time and procrastinate what we can do,
how we can change our thinking to improve what
the output improve, how we see ourselves and move
away from that negative image of Procrastination.
A generalised discussion about what would you
do differently if you had your time?
Again, we all have that story going on in
our minds about, I wish I'd never done this,
or I wish I'd ever done that.
But this podcast is going to be
about what would you really do? Yes.
And how do you feel it would affect you?
So we're going to be having another episode
on the tips for helping children dealing with
anxiety and low mood and anger.
It's something that a lot of parents have asked
me for and one of my child therapists is
helping me work on at the moment.
Another area we're going to talk about is
who am I, what do I do?
My backstory, my history, why do I do what I do, what do
I enjoy and what I don't enjoy so much in my life.
And hopefully that will give you an insight into
the type of person I am and give you
some things to reflect upon and look about what
you can do for yourself in the future.
We're going to be doing
something on breathing techniques.
Breathing techniques are vital when we're
dealing with anxiety and stress.
There's a lot around mindfulness and obviously the techniques from
yoga and everything else, and there's lots of research that
helps, but we can struggle sometimes to do those exercises
and to fit them into our day.
So that podcast is going to be about doing
little and often or adapting those techniques just to
yourself, so you get the benefit from that.
Being an empath, this is something that
I encounter quite often with my clients.
It's something that not a lot of people know about.
So raising the awareness of what an empath
is, how it affects people, what they can
do about it, I think it's really important.
Another area we're going to be talking
about is mental health in the workplace.
So this is going to relate to people in
businesses, people when you're going back to work and
how you can deal with that mental health there.
Tinnitus is another area we're going
to be discussing a future episode.
It's an area that I work quite a lot with.
I work with a specialist from the
Plumbing Hearing Centre and he does amazing
work with the clients that he sees.
And I help people experience in Tinnitus with the
stress and anxiety and the changes they have to
make to their lives to deal with it.
Mindfulness is another area that we're
going to be talking about.
Again, there's different types of mindfulness.
People's perception of what mindfulness is and how
it affects them and how they can fit
it into the day can vary greatly.
I'm going to offer you some guidance on
practical mindfulness, how you can incorporate these small,
everyday things into your life, deal with it
and feel the benefit of what it is.
Also how corona this COVID-19 virus has changed
yourself, how it's changed your mindset and what
will you do differently from now on.
It's going to be quite exciting episode for myself.
There's lots I'm looking forward to coming up
in future podcasts lots and really want to
sort of discuss and talk about.
But again, as I said at the store, today is really
about asking for your help, your feedback on what it is
that you want to hear, what it is you would like
me to discuss, to talk about, to have an expert in,
to get their point of view upon, and how we can
design future episodes to give you what you want.
I really hope that you're enjoying the sun and you're
trying to stay as relaxed and as calm as possible.
There's lots of different things in the news
and the media that's distracting us and can
cause us some anxiety and stress.
So caring for yourself and the people
around enjoying this moment because we're going
to start heading back to work soon.
More and more companies are opening, the schools are
starting to open in the next couple of weeks.
Please try and enjoy the sun, try and enjoy the
time you have together and hopefully I'm going to speak
to you soon in one of the new and exciting
podcasts that we've got coming up in the future.
Again, please send over your feedback.
I love to hear your comments, I want to
hear your suggestions for future episodes, but for now,
I really want you to take care and I'm
going to sign off as a therapy Guy.
Bye for now.
