East meds West from Dr. Carolyn Eddleston.
Exploring the collision and collaboration of Eastern and Western cultures. Starting with medicine and wellbeing, but opening up to broader philosophies and ideas.
Dr. Carolyn Eddleston, uniquely positioned as a registered GP and a practising Traditional Acupuncturist, delves into contemporary thinking and ancient philosophies of life, and brings them out of the consulting room into the wider world by interviewing inspiring leaders in health, science and creative industries.
This has been a refreshing and fun project that will evolve with time.
Huge thanks to my co-host Karl Cooper who has given me technical support and kept me on track,
Mike O'Reilly, a phenomenal creative strategist, who not only came up the title, but patiently encouraged me to find my own words, and Nick Bott for composing the music.

Physician, heal thyself!
In this 40 minute episode, I talk to Karl about his transformation from Health Anxiety to thriving with great health, and how his healing journey, through a combination of Western Medicine and Traditional Acupuncture, allowed him to become more confident in being his own physician.

Social Mindfulness: hope in a time of crisis.
Mindfulness is a well used term now. We can all list the benefits of a regular mindfulness practice, but does it have wider impact on society?
According to Mark Leonard, Social Mindfulness does.
What if Mark Leonard and his evidence-based, internationally recognised programme, called Mindfulness-Based Organisational Education, MBOE could impact our carbon footprint, and the development of meaningful, effective communities, that are co-creating a culture based on love and kindness. A collective approach, that has global impact. Take listen. Fascinating interview.

Yin Yang BUSTED!!
The Big Deception.
Listen to Nicholas Haines blow the whole masculine feminine social construct to pieces.

Listen from your heart
We hear people, but do we really listen?
I believe that just by becoming great listeners we could change humanity for the better.
Again we start with Chinese philosophy, and then broaden our discussion to wider issues related to the act of listening.

Take half an hour out, close your eyes, put your earphones in, and really listen.
