    It's OK to self-care

    Most of us have heard how important "self-care" is and how important it can be for healthy living. But what exactly IS self-care? In this episode, not only do we define what self-care is, but we talk through the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of what's involved in self-care and why this can so often be misunderstood and challenging. While we might be familiar with this term, many may not consider how they can be deliberate around managing themselves by both reflecting on and engaging in activities that help support their brains and bodies. It isn't enough to simply know that self-care is important, rather discovering practical actions you can take to improve both how you feel and how you engage with the world.

    I'm just so stressed

    Stress is something that we will inevitably encounter throughout our lives. It isn't all bad or maladaptive, but how we manage it can make a significant difference in our lives. The degree of stress we feel impacts how we show up in the world including both how we relate and how we do the work before us each day. In this episode, Mireille and Adam discuss the impact of stress on our systems including the role of different stress hormones on our immune system, cardiovascular system and our metabolism. Like many other conversations on previous episodes, we provide research relative to the value of relationships as having close connections helps us all combat the stress that loneliness can cause as well. When we utilize resources to support us as well as set limits on what we expose ourselves to and focus our attention to, we have the opportunity to better navigate the stresses of our lives.

    Clarity and expectation

    When you lack clarity or have uncertainty for a direction or goal, it's going to be difficult to succeed in your actions. Today Mireille and Adam discuss the topic of clear communication and expectation, two of the most important ingredients of success. How do we create better clarity? Like so many things — clarity begins with awareness, and awareness of yourself. You have to know what you want and what you value in life. We must assume 100% responsibility for creating our own clarity in our lives. After all, "if you don't have clarity, you are operating from assumption."

    What does it mean to be Indistractible?

    Distractions will always exist -- managing them is our responsibility. We often talk about the need for new information in order to change the old patterns of our brain. One of the best ways we can do this is through reading good books. In this episode, Mireille and Adam discuss the highlights of Nir Eyal's book, Indistractible -- how to control your attention and choose your life. In his book, Nir highlights this clear connection between people's distraction and its relationship to psychological discomfort, otherwise known as pain. He says, "all behaviors, whether they tend toward traction or distraction are prompted by triggers, internal or external. When we learn how to recognize these "triggers," there is opportunity for change. And changing in the direction that you desire, as based on what you value, is key to having the life you want to live.
