Ask Ell #ASKELL Elliott Reid

Today I have the pleasure of speaking to Peter Reading who is using his historical struggle with alcoholism to help other people to overcome their own struggles.

From a troubled childhood to a life lost in addiction, join us on a journey of transformation.

In this podcast, we'll explore one man's path from isolation to recovery, discovering his true superpower along the way. Through ups and downs, arrests, and failed attempts, he eventually finds a new purpose in life.

Walk with us as he shares how nature and sobriety became his saviours, and how he now strives to help others find their own way to healing and self-discovery.

Experience the power of resilience, redemption, and the incredible transformation from a life of despair to a life filled with purpose.

I talk mindset with Osteopath and Mindset Coach, Annie Osbourne

If you could be a better person, would you?

Better means different things to different people. Better physical health or mental health could be an example. Better skilled, a better husband or wife are other examples.

Even more simpler; if you could become the best version of yourself, would you?

This is Annie’s speciality.

Seamlessly, Annie compliments her osteopathic work with mindset coaching and vice versa.

Holistically, she blends the psychological and the physical for her clients.

The result? Patients who are healthier in every sector of their life.

This podcast is a treat for you. Annie will teach you how to reach your full potential, eradicate negative beliefs or even transform them to work for you.

Suicide and why people take their lives…

Robust professional and personal experience are needed to answer such a question.

Diane has both.

Whilst treating Diane, our conversations often took interesting paths. Diane is a qualified mental health nurse and founder of CASAS (care and support after suicide) which she started to help people like herself who have lost loved ones through suicide.

Listen to this podcast as we discuss why loved ones take their own lives; how it affects those who are left behind and how it differs from other types of fatality.

You will find Diane incredibly insightful as she navigates a complex and deep topic with expertise and charm.

Why your pain may not disappear…

Has your parking sensor ever tripped when there’s nothing behind you?

Pain can be the same. And pain is more of a parking sensor than a measure of damage. It triggers before damage occurs. But often pain can be anchored by our emotions, beliefs and experiences.

Osteopath and Chronic Pain specialist, Pippa Cossens knows this too well. Pippa’s experience with fibromyalgia, emotional trauma, chronic pain and her own training as an Osteopath and SIRFA practitioner provides her an up close insight into living with pain. She uses her training and experience to help her patients become pain free.

And she wants to share with you her experience to let you know that if she can make a recovery of over 90% then you can too.

Listen to our amazing podcast that we recorded just for you.

Pippa is available in East Sussex at the Osteopathy For All clinic https://osteopathyforall.co.uk/staff/pippa-cossens/

Suffer from anxiety? Mind racing like a hamster wheel?

And that’s without bringing in the negative thoughts that go around and around like a broken record.

Anxiety is our brain’s way of protecting us from what might happen… but something has gone wrong. The absence of a threat should correct our brain but it doesn’t. This is called prediction error.

Ie “I’m concerned people are looking at me… no-one is looking at me… I am now calm” turns into “I’m concerned people are looking at me… I’m concerned people are looking at me… I’m concerned…” etc

Writing for 5 minutes when you feel anxious, concerned, depressed enables you to observe your thoughts rather than suffer in their grasp. It takes you from being in a burning building, so observing that burning building on a TV screen in safety.

In this video I explain how I have been able to restore sense and calmness to my mind by spending 5mins on the same laptop I’m using to write this email.

Our understanding of pain is changing in a fantastically productive way. 80 years ago, if you would have died, the most likely cause would have been a work place accident, poisoning, a bacterial infection and other conditions which you had no control over.

However, times have changed.

Most of us will die of deaths that could have been delayed, and many of us live with complaints that we must be empowered over if we want to stand the best chance of recovery. Diabetes, heart disease, cancer and yes, chronic pain. Thankfully, there is a growing shift in approach to healthcare.

I talk to Danny Miller who has a fantastic story. After graduating as an osteopath, due to his frustration of not knowing enough to help his patients, Danny started to study to become a clinical health psychologist.

Danny’s understanding of pain, desire, motivation, perspective is mind blowing and he also shares the desire to empower more people over their health outcomes.

Give the interview a watch, and let me know what you think
