    Bonus Episode: Guided Meditation

    Bonus Episode: Guided Meditation

    This is an extra special piece of bonus content brought to you in partnership with E.ON Next. If you heard my episode with climate psychologist Caroline Hickman, you’ll know that they have created something of an audio toolkit for when eco-anxiety, or anxiety at large, starts to mount. 
    And that’s what we have for you today - a mindfulness meditation. Here for you when you need to reduce stress, address anxiety and improve your well-being. So if you feel you need it now, or at a later date, this chance to take a pause will be waiting. Ready for you to use for rest, renewal, or just a moment of calm to yourself.

    Join me and Caroline Hickman, a lecturer in social work and climate psychology at the University of Bath as we unpack the subject of Eco-anxiety, In partnership with E.ON NEXT - the energy provider powering space for change in a mission to tackle eco-anxiety.
    Eco Anxiety is very real. The overwhelming majority of my listeners are very stressed about the future and the frightening implications of climate change. This can motivate us to take action. However, it can also have a reverse effect. It can be debilitating. It can be overwhelming. It can leave us feeling engulfed in the doom of it all, ready to throw in the towel.
    So….this special bonus episode is designed to educate you about eco-anxiety, and give you tools to help diffuse it when it next arises. Enjoy!

    TW: We discuss suicide in this episode.
    This week on Owning It I am joined by a former uni classmate of mine, Yvonne Keane (now an incredible photographer) who shares with me her experience of being diagnosed with bipolar. The anxiety and depression that preceded the diagnosis for Yvonne, what life with bipolar is like for her, a mother of one, the anxiety around getting such a diagnosis and how we can better support those in our lives who have been diagnosed with this illness (formerly referred to as 'manic depression'). I am very grateful to Yvonne for highlighting such an important topic, being so vulnerable and open with me and educating me on something that's not often talked about.

    Anxiety and fertility with Rosanna Davison

    Sign up for Owning It Real Time HERE
    In this episode of Owning It, I am joined by the lovely Rosanna Davison, former Miss World, best-selling author, nutritionist, mother and fertility spokesperson. She shares her incredible journey of fertility with me from the perspective of anxiety. The anxiety of not knowing if you'll get pregnant, the anxiety of looking for a reason as to why you're experiencing miscarriages, the anxiety of not knowing how your future will look and coming to terms with possibly never arriving at that happy ending. She also shares her experience of anxiety through the surrogacy journey and how she takes care of her general day to day anxiety since becoming a mother.

I can relate!

This podcast is truly truly excellent, I’ve been meaning to review for a long time, It’s uncanny how much I can relate to Caroline’s experiences, and she communicates her thoughts so well, I’m on a journey to manage my anxiety and this podcast has really helped, there has also been some wonderful guests, especially the neuroscientists that bring some better understanding to the sufferers, Caroline keep doing what you’re doing

Brilliant

Caroline is a fantastic communicator, she speaks from the heart as she’s walked the anxiety walk but she asks the right questions and everything she does is to help others in a similar situation get an understanding of how we function and what can be going on when we get off track.
I’ve never experience debilitating anxiety but I always find this a fascinating listen x
