    Julia Wikeepa - Overcoming Stress & Anxiety One Breath At A Time.

    Julia is the founder of Hā Habit. She knows all too well what it's like to be trapped by overwhelming feelings of stress and anxiety. Which is why she created the Hā tool, Aotearoa, New Zealand's #1 destress breathing tool. In this podcast, we kōrero about Julia's journey to where she is now, she offers practical tools which can help when you're feeling stressed and anxious and we touch on our te reo Māori journey, plus so much more! Julia was born and bred in Aotearoa, New Zealand. Her father is Māori, and they whakapapa to Ngāti Awa, Ngāti Maniapoto, and Te Atihaunui-Ā-Pāpārangi. Julia's mother is Pākeha (half Dutch, part English, and Jewish). Julia loves to share what she learns. She obtained a Bachelor of Social Sciences, double majoring in Psychology and Human Resource Management so she could further develop her skills and empower others to move through their challenges. Part of Julia's journey led her to conscious breathing as a powerful tool for regulation and emotional healing.  It has allowed her to gain more awareness of her thought patterns, behaviours, and actions.   Knowing how to regulate the body for stress management is a key component of the Hā Habit.  Having come across the concept of breathing necklaces, she knew this was a powerful way to develop breathing habits that can stick for life. She was inspired to create a New Zealand version and that’s when the Hā tool was born.  She also created an e-book which can help you to use the Hā tool effectively and address deeper issues of anxiety and stress.  Her hope is to motivate you in doing the mental, emotional, and spiritual work that can assist in your healing.  Get cosy and join us in The Soul Full Lounge x You can learn more about Julia and the Hā tool. https://www.hahabitnz.com/ www.facbook.com/hahabitnz www.instagram.com/hahabitnz

    Bex Lipp - Finding Her Way

    Bex Lipp was born into this world, as a very sensitive person who struggled with her emotions.  She soaked up everyone's experiences and she never knew how to process what she was feeling. At times she didn't feel she belonged in this world.  As an adult she became a very high functioning woman and found herself back in an incredibly dark space. It was from here, with lots of support, that she began to slowly, over time, find her light, heal and grow.   Bex experiences have shaped who she has become and with her co-founder from Wilding Books, Craig Phillips, they create books that little wildlings will always remember, even as adults. Books that empower and inspire the little wildling in all of us, bridging the gap between what professionals know and what parents and teachers need to know with their Aroha series of books. Wildling Books aids to empower our wildlings with the knowledge and guidance to live a life they love, where their wildness can shine. Together Bex and Craig share first-hand learned wisdom through the stories they create with the aim to affect cultural change for the next generation. Get cosy and join Bex and I for an inspiring conversation, where I learn more about her journey through tough times, to making an incredibly positive impact in the world. You can learn more about Bex and her brilliant books below.

    David Beaumont - Disrupting The Future Of Medical Practice

    Dr David Beaumont and I sat down, (via zoom) to discuss his book Positive Medicine - Disrupting the Future of Medical Practice.  We chatted about his vision for the future of medical practice which he believes lies beyond the doctor-patient relationship and into a person-doctor partnership.  David says "we should be able to choose what is best for our own health, not be swept along (or forgotten) by systems." He also shares how this vision can be achieved and the work he's doing, which is empowering people around their health and well-being. This is a great conversation! Get cosy and join us in The Soul Full Lounge for a thought provoking conversation and make sure you stick around for a fantastic question which David encourages you to reflect on. More about David:    Dr. Beaumont resides in Cromwell and works as a specialist doctor in the health of workers. He has assessed and advised thousands of people who have been ‘let down’ by healthcare systems and not returned to work, experiencing years or a lifetime of disability. From stories his clients have shared with him, and his own experience of ill health — including a heart attack, hip replacements and depression — he came to realise that there needs to be a shift in emphasis to preventative health. He is focused on seeing people in the context of their whole lives. The Cromwell Experiment Dr. David Beaumont is launching a 6-month project, putting into practice his theories from the book. His concepts and the logical reasoning for why a radical shift in healthcare delivery is needed will be tested in this project, ‘The Cromwell Experiment.’ ‘We are providing the opportunity for the community and the doctors and practice teams who serve that community to come together to demonstrate the value of a whole person approach to health,’ shares Dr. Beaumont. ‘In Cromwell, we have a discrete, engaged community of a size which is ideal to test the concept of a new model of health for the whole of Aotearoa New Zealand.’‘This is a project which engages with the community and medical services to collaborate in the co-design of a health and wellbeing programme which not only promotes health but at the same time aims to address the growing problem of doctor burnout, recruitment and retention of doctors in rural communities.’The intention of the Cromwell Experiment is ultimately is to enable a significant proportion of the population of Cromwell to go through the programme and to improve the health and wellbeing of the community.
