Fearless Dialogue Gabby

This is part two of my discussion with Hannah (a therapist) and Shannon (a photography teacher). In this episode we talked about the stress filled culture we live in, self care activities, our relationship with exercise, breathing techniques, connecting with nature, meditation and so much more! I hope that you will enjoy this episode as much as we did recording it!

Some Quotes from the Podcast:


“We live in a stress filled culture. We live in a culture that feeds on stress whether you’re watching the news or social media. Even just the urgency to text someone back within a certain period of time because that then means that you care about the person or you don’t. There’s stress on all these little micro ways throughout our life.”-Hannah

“I think one of the biggest antidotes to stress management is coming back into the body. Through exercise, eating good, being in water.” -Hannah

“I can think about a problem from my mind and I can be up in my head, thinking all the details. And then I shift my awareness to my heart. Like what does my heart say about it? It's a whole other way of experiencing the topic that I’m struggling with. “  -Hannah

We have different intelligences. We have our head intelligence, our heart intelligence, our stomachs are like our first brain. We can use these other sources on our physical bodies to help us gather information about these things we are wondering about or stressing about”  -Hannah
“If we work with our bodies when we’re feeling stress, that is a sure way to manage the stress” -Hannah

“There are so many different ways to move your body” -Shannon

“To me, nature is synonymous to spirit” -Shannon

“[In meditation] to really stop yourself and be still. There’s so much to be found in the stillness. There’s such richness, there’s such wisdom, there’s such depth in the stillness. But we don't live in a culture that cultivates that so we have to cultivate that for ourselves” -Hannah

“The mind can get us so far away from ourselves” -Shannon

peace and love,

In this episode I talked with Hannah (a therapist) and Shannon (a photography teacher) about self care associations: that it's selfish to properly self care. We talked about the power of water, how food is medicine, and self love.  I hope that you will enjoy this episode as much as we did recording it!

Some Quotes from the Podcast: 


“There can be cultural differences with self care. Different cultures don’t prioritize self versus community” -Hannah
“We all, meaning all humans, need to find ways to care for your physical health and mental health” -Hannah
“I think I used to think self care looked one way. Since I’ve gotten older, you learn that self care can look rather different, different ways for different people” -Shannon
“You’ve got to fill your own cup. The idea that especially when you’re giving out a lot, you’ve got to also give to yourself” -Shannon


peace and love,

Gabby
