Let's talk mindfulness, meditation & chocolate‪.‬ Tonic Talk

    • Health & Fitness

Stuart Couling, who is trained in yoga, Indian Head Massage, Reiki, Meditation, and most recently as a Mindfulness Instructor, joins us this week. We use a chocolate bar, yes a chocolate bar, to discover mindfulness, the philosophy of learning how to be completely present and involved in the moment, aware of your thoughts and emotions without distraction or judgement. Stuart's experience with online solutions during the global pandemic has helped him realise how technology can be used to reach many more people. Learn how writing down our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours in a journal will help us craft and sustain our sense of self while also solidifying our identity. It also allows us to focus on our past experiences and discover our true selves.
We address the effect of mental health on the younger generation in Lincolnshire, talk about the impact of digital isolation on people accessing support within deprived communities, and learn how more than 50% can't access the internet and have been lost during the current lockdown. Discussing  the possibility of bringing these people online to help us resolve this current situation. Chief Constable Chris Haward - "Spike in youth suicides in Lincolnshire, as third of police calls involve mental health, we need a partnership approach to tackle this". 
We wrap up the episode with a message from Tom at HWlincs, who are planning a suicide prevention campaign and are looking for people who have been impacted and would be willing to share their thoughts and input on a much-needed subject. From everyone at The Tonic Health Family, thank you for your continued support with Tonic Talk; we can't wait to bring you more weekly episodes of hope, inspiration, and strength.
