This podcast covers a variety of information concerning healthy practices, including, but not limited to mental health, physical health, self-improvement and personal development. While I will, at times, be the main speaker on the podcast, most of the time the narrator on the podcast will be a team member from my parent organization - StressHealth Solutions International (or SHSI). That said, I am referring to the structure of the podcast as more of a "Narrative Podcast." For the most past, the podcast will consist mainly of a narrative introduced and presented by one of the team members at SHSI, and it will not have or follow the more traditional format of one-on-one interviews. The decision was made by the team that this format allows for greater and more frequent coverage of a variety of health and health related information. You can listen to both present and past podcasts by visiting our website at: drlhealthypracticespodcast.buzzsprout.com. Also, if there is an interest in learning more about informational activities associated with Stress Health Solutions International, please visit our parent website at: StressHealthSolutions.com.

    Procrastination The Key Reason for Job Overwhelm & Burnout.

    Do you often feel overwhelmed and stressed at work? If so, you're not alone. Many people struggle with job overwhelm and burnout, and one of the key reasons for this is procrastination.  Procrastination is a major contributor to job overwhelm and burnout, as it leads to a cycle of stress, anxiety, and frustration. When we put off tasks, we often create a backlog of work that becomes increasingly difficult to manage. This can cause us to feel overwhelmed, as we struggle to keep up with the demands of our job, and eventually leads to burnout.  The root cause of this cycle is often rooted in our thoughts and beliefs about ourselves, our work, and our ability to succeed. For example, perfectionism can cause us to put off tasks, as we fear that our work will not be good enough. Similarly, fear of failure, rejection, or criticism can make us avoid challenging tasks, as we worry about the consequences of not performing perfectly. Hope you enjoyed this informative podcast!

    Self-Care and Healing the Hurt of Rejection.

    Education on what to do in case you are feeling rejected is important for maintaining emotional health. Rejection can be viewed as a type of wound. It is precisely this reason why it is essential to apply the concept of ‘Emotional First Aid’ in dealing with the hurt of rejection.  Emotional First Aid.  The idea behind emotional first aid is to act in terms of self-care, self-love, and wellbeing in response to out-casting or rejection. Unfortunately, the idea of Emotional First Aid is not as common as it could and should be. People are often unaware that they need to pay more attention to their emotional health.   Unlike when they cut themselves, and the wound is cleaned and covered, people often are too paralyzed by the pain to counteract the emotional damage caused by rejection.   Hope you enjoyed this informative podcast!

    The Hidden Dangers of Being Too Nice

    A genuinely decent or ‘nice’ person has always been a blessing to those they come in contact with. It’s an admirable quality that anybody would simply wish to have more access to, especially to balance the spite and hate that can sometimes seem to be predominant.   Terrible news happening every day has never been so widely broadcast. People have never been more divided in what they believe in and in proving themselves right, sometimes reaching a point of violence.   The world could really make use of some altruism and genuine kindness today. The glaring truth is, we would simply live better if there were more good-hearted people around in our midst. Hope you enjoyed this informative podcast!

    How to Reduce Stress When Taking a Vacation

    A vacation should offer relief from daily pressure, yet many people feel stressed before leaving, anxious during the trip, and overwhelmed when they return. Packing, budgets, travel delays, family needs, work messages, and the pressure to “make every moment count” can turn time away into another demanding project. The goal is not a perfect itinerary. It is to plan for restoration rather than productivity. You do not need to see everything or use every hour efficiently. A successful vacation helps you return home feeling rested, present, and emotionally refreshed. Hope you enjoyed this informative podcast!

    Anxiety and Depression

    It's perfectly normal to feel anxious or depressed occasionally, especially in response to life's stressors. However, when these feelings become prolonged, disproportionate or apparent for no significant reason, they need to be addressed.   Thankfully diagnosis and treatment methods have come a long way, with many public health campaigns working towards bringing mental illness 'out of the shadows'.   The co-occurrence of anxiety and depression is a noted feature of these disorders. While behavioral and emotional symptoms may differ within the two, the fact remains they are both an unnatural and unwelcome state of mental health.  Hope you enjoyed this informative podcast!

    How Gratitude Helps Buffer Against Burnout.

    People often talk about how gratitude is a mindset shift, but in reality, it has the power to impact you far more deeply than that. While choosing to be grateful and adopting a gratitude practice can indeed change your whole mindset, it also has the power to serve as a great biological and psychological buffer against burnout. This is because it disrupts the patterns that allow the burnout cycle to persist and worsen. Hope you enjoyed this informative podcast!
