    Philip Taylor - Occupational Therapy, Mental Health, Lockdown...

    Hello everyone!
    Welcome back to the Happiness In Movement Podcast - we've had a break from making podcasts, taking time to focus on myself and look after my own mental health.
    For season 2 I am going to be interviewing a wide range of guests from various roles within healthcare and fitness to discuss what they do and some of their ideas about mental health.
    Kicking off  season 2 I had the pleasure of chatting with Occupational Therapist Philip Taylor. Phil had some great OT recommendations for managing your mental health throughout lockdown and it's clear from our chat he brings a lot to the table in his role.

    Enjoy - as ever any feedback is more than welcome head over to instagram @happinessinmovement to get in touch!

    Episode 3: A Cat In The Woods

    Episode 3: A Cat In The Woods

    Hello everyone! If you're returning, it's great to have you back. If you're new, it's lovely to have you here! Thanks for taking the time to listen to the latest episode. Throughout school and college I had a real flare for writing and poetry - something I stopped pursuing some time ago. Recently, I've found solace in expressing myself through words and stories. This short (not quite a children's book but also no novel) tells the story of a young man living with depression, who finds companionship in a little ginger cat that he meets in the woods. I hope you enjoy this episode and please don't hesitate to leave some feedback via my instagram @happinessinmovement 

    I hope you're all keeping happy and healthy - much love!

    Episode 2: A letter to a younger me

    Episode 2: A letter to a younger me

    Have you ever wished you could go back and give your younger self some advice? Or to lend them your ear to air their worries? Living with anxiety and depression has me looking to the past, and the future, far more than is helpful most of the time. This is some of what I needed to hear growing up. I hope you enjoy this episode and that you might find something here useful for your own growth and peace of mind.
