Selfdom Dominique Elissa

Today’s episode is all about finding your flow state! I discovered this term when I was reading The Art of Impossible by Steven Kotler, and have since dived deep into ways to live in flow.
I am sure a lot of you are wondering, “Dom what is this flow state?” The term Flow state was created by Mihaly Csikszentmihályi in the 1970s - referring to flow state as being so immersed in the joy of their work or activity “that nothing else seems to matter.” To me it is when you’re living with so much purpose, that the world seems to be working for you and with you. You feel light, a lot of effort can seem effortless, and you are really in the groove.
The best example of being in flow is when we look at Athletes. They are so in their zone on the court that they are not thinking about anything else, they are hyper focused and fixated on what they need to do.
So today’s episode is all about helping you find your flow state! This has been a real game changer for me, it has in all honesty changed my life and i’m excited to dive deep into the episode.

Today I will be chatting to the founder of The Pilates Class, Jacqui Kingswell! I am genuinely so excited for today because when I started Selfdom and created a vision board, Jacqui was a dream guest!
We will be chatting all things Pilates! Pilates was invented around 100 years ago, and it is becoming an increasingly popular form of exercise. I practice pilates 3-4 times a week. It is my go-to training because it leaves me feeling long, mobile and releases all those happy endorphins after class! Jacqui has been at the forefront of pilates popularity, and has helped to bring confidence to so many women globally! 
Jacqui chats about her journey postpartum, what she does to feel good, balancing work/mum life and so much more! A truely inspiring conversation.

On today’s episode we have Dean Gladstone. Dean has one of the most impressive list of qualifications I have ever seen, but to name a few he is a certified ice bath instructor, a personal trainer, the founder of the app power of the breath and a lifeguard at my local, Bondi Beach! 
Dean’s purpose is to empower people to manage and influence stress for better health and performance. He has a strong focus on nutrition, mindset, goal setting, movement and breathwork. I love his holistic approach to health and I am so excited to pick his brain today!
We will be focusing on ice baths, managing anxiety, the power of the breath, what we should be prioritising if we are time poor and Deans tips for becoming your best self physically and mentally. 

Today’s episode is all about meditation. Whether you are new to meditating or someone who has had a practice for years and years, I know you will gain a lot from this interview.
Today’s guest is Luke Mceloud. Luke is one of Australia’s most popular thought leaders and practioners in mindfulnes and meditation. Luke has been practicing for over two decades now, and he specialises in helping others deal with anxiety, overwhlm and emotional distress through meditation. Luke is the founder of The Mindful Life App, Soul Alive and the author of his new book Everyday Enlightenment. 
Make sure to give this pod a review, it really really helps the channel grow. See you on the next episode! 

This week I did a question box on the @selfdom Instagram and answered your questions. I speak about how I train, how to find friends who lift you up, how to be present and more.
Let me know if you like this style of pod and I can do more! Thank you for everyone who asked a question.

Today is going to dive deep into the modelling - how to get started, challenges that will come up, how to handle rejection and so much more. Today’s guest is Shannon Lawson, a model, health and fitness advocate, digital personality and a mum! Shannon has been modelling for over a decade and has shot all around the world. Our worlds always seemed to cross paths even in the early days, and I feel so lucky to call her a close friend of mine. 
Shannon has been an amazing role model to me and so many others so I can’t wait to pick her brain. I have always looked up to her not only physically because she is so much taller than me, but because she is so professional.
I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the episode! Make sure to follow and share.
