How much time do you spend outside? If you’re like most people, probably not enough. And it’s taking a toll on our mental and physical health. What’s profound about time in nature is how even small doses can have a relaxing, stress-reducing impact on our physiology; reducing anxiety.

We feel better when we spend more time outdoors. Research shows that spending time in green or blue spaces, listening to the sounds of nature, breathing fresh air, observing nature’s patterns, and even connecting with the microbes in soil all contribute to long-term health benefits. Joining Dr. Jodi for this week’s episode is Lifestyle Medicine Practitioner Dr. Jenny Brockis. Author of The Natural Advantage, Dr. Jenny highlights our “nature deficit” and explores how spending more time outside can dramatically reduce stress and improve our health. https://drjennybrockis.com/ https://www.instagram.com/drjennybrockis/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/drjennybrockis/

So many of us are 'on' from the moment we wake until our heads hit the pillow at the end of the day. It's common to feel that there's too much to do to take time to pause and give our minds and bodies even a few minutes of stillness and rest. Even when that's what we need more than anything else. This episode could be the nudge you've been waiting for start a practice that will help you live with more stillness and ease.

I'm joined this week by mental health nurse, meditation and self-compassion practitioner Vivienne Law. She shares insights into what it's like for patients who need extra care on their mental health journey and her experiences from a meditation newbie to an experienced meditation, sound meditation and self-compassion practitioner. There are so many powerful take-aways in this conversation.

We were never meant to do any of this alone. And yet, alone so many are. Or more specifically, an astonishing number of people are lonely. And it's wreaking havoc on our mental and physical health.

This week's guest, Dr Jody Carrington, is passionate about human connection. She explains why connection is declining, the impacts of disconnection, what's standing in the way of connection and what we can do about it. It's one of the most powerful episodes we've shared.

With our brain at the helm, the hormonal changes we experience through perimenopause affect how we think, feel, cope, react, sleep, the density of our bones, our heart health, our patience, our tolerance, how we look, how we feel about life as a whole and so much more. Shockingly, nearly 1 in 4 women report feeling as though life is not worth living through this stage of life which can unfold over many years.

Any significant life change can see us knocking on the door of our local GP for help. GP's are incredible for SO many reasons, but relatively few have the kind of perimenopausal expertise many women need. From her personal experiences, and her work in clinic with menopausal women, Clinical Psychologist Kirsten Bouse saw a critical need for skilled, experienced, passionate healthcare providers who could support women on their perimenopause journey with expertise. She founded 'All About Her - The Centre for Menopause' and joined me for this week's episode to talk about the magic and messiness of this life stage for women, and where women can turn to for specialist help.

A messy or cluttered space around us can have a very real impact our levels of stress and anxiety. Too much 'stuff' around us is distracting and taxes our brain in ways that can reduce our ability to focus, think properly and function well. We can end up feeling completely overwhelmed and find it really hard to know where to start.

In this fascinating conversation, psychologist Dr Erika Penney helps us understand why we feel the way we do when surrounded by mess and clutter, how it affects us and, importantly, strategies for tackling mess that help even the busiest among us!

Are you 'good with money'? If you're not you need to know two things. Firstly, you are not alone. Secondly, this episode will put you on a path to changing the way you think about money, feel about spending, act upon saving, being more intentional about where your hard-earned money goes - and finally change the way you feel about all of it.
