  • Are you a social media approval addict?
    May 22 2024

    Are you addicted to that dopamine hit of social media approval. And is this negatively affecting your mental health. In this episode I talk about approval addiction and its relationship to self esteem. I recommend and read excerpts from 'The Six Pillars of Self Esteem' by Nathaniel Branden and an article published on the 'Choosing Therapy' website https://www.choosingtherapy.com/approval-addict/

  • What does becoming more "conscious" mean?
    May 20 2024

    In the spiritual community we often hear the terms "expanding your consciousness". "I'm expanding my consciousness". But what does this even mean. In this episode I give a brief description of what this means to me. I also talk about consumption... the consumption of self help material in books and in podcasts. Is it useful to over-consume. At what point do we stop consuming and start giving back... this is my aim with this show.


    Thank you for listening. I would it if you could rate me on Apple, Spotify or wherever you CONSUME :) your podcasts. Paul :)
