Relaxamation - Today Is My Day (13 minutes) 12:36

13 weeks тому12:36

12:36

Today’s episode is a relaxamation and it focuses on taking time for yourself and putting yourself first. When was the last time you spent a whole day just for yourself, doing only what you wanted to do when you wanted to do it? I don’t do it very often myself and yet I know that I should. It’s an essential part of self-care. Self-care shouldn’t be for when you’re burnt out, uptight, stressed and feeling awful it should be used as part of your everyday life to avoid feeling depleted and unable to cope. If you have others that you care for or look after then you need to look after yourself first. Think of the oxygen mask on the plane, always put it on yourself first else you won’t be able to save others and may even make the situation worse. Life should be enjoyable as our mental health impacts our physical health; do you know what brings you joy? Maybe a bit of homework for you 😉 Time is something we can’t make more of but we can make more money, have more relationships or more jobs, and find some time for yourself. Live with gratitude for all the experiences you have, if you can’t give yourself a day, then look for an hour or maybe an afternoon. Be glad you did rather than wish that you had! Do not listen to this episode while driving or operating machinery. Your affirmations Today is my day I set aside time to laugh and play I spend time doing what I love Say your affirmations 5 times each as a set. Repeat your set of affirmations at least once a day. The more you use them the bigger the impact. Add them to a habit that you do every day. While cleaning your teeth, driving, running, walking your dog, washing the dishes, when you first wake up or the last thing at night. Your self-reflection questions are: What is one new thing I want to try today? How can slowing down help me to stop wasting time? What can children teach me about enjoying life? What do I enjoy doing, having, and being? Use these reflection questions to delve a little deeper and get to know yourself better. You can use them as prompts for journaling, during meditation or just give yourself a few moments of time to consider. Send me a message, I'd love to hear from you!

I am not sure about you but does your cardiac event consume your life? Is your heart health at the centre of everything that you do or think? Awe is an emotion characterised by a sense of reverence or wonder in response to something perceived as vast or great. Something outside of yourself. It has been shown to have several potential health benefits. Today I am going to talk about awe as it has been shown to have a positive impact on both psychological and physical health, making it an important aspect of well-being after a heart attack or heart surgery.

Relaxamation - I Am In Charge of How I Feel (13 minutes) 13:31

15 weeks тому13:31

13:31

The Dalai Lama said, “Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.” To me, the quote means that experiencing pain, physical and emotional, is a natural and unavoidable part of life, but whether or not we experience suffering as a result of that pain is a choice that we can make. In other words, we can choose to let the pain control and consume us, causing suffering, or we can choose to accept the pain and manage it in a healthy and constructive way. Managing how we feel and react to people, circumstances, and situations can reduce our suffering. You are in charge of how you feel. I’m sure you are familiar with the term, “You choose how you react”. Actually, it’s not 100% true as our limbic system is always on the lookout for trouble and anything that would be a threat so you may initially experience a fight or flight response. However, you can stop, take a breath or two, and calmly reconsider your response, there may be some facts you weren’t aware of, and therefore take charge of how you feel. Do not listen to this episode while driving or operating machinery. Your affirmations: I am in charge of how I feel I choose thoughts that give me control of how I feel I decide how I want to feel Say your affirmations 5 times each as a set. Repeat your set of affirmations at least once a day. The more you use them the bigger the impact. Add them to a habit that you do every day. While cleaning your teeth, driving, running, walking your dog, washing the dishes, when you first wake up, or the last thing at night. Your self-reflection questions are: In what situations do my emotions work against me? When I lose control of my emotions, what happens? How would my life be changed if I had more control over my emotions? Use these reflection questions to delve a little deeper and get to know yourself better. You can use them as prompts for journaling, during meditation or just give yourself a few moments of time to consider. Send me a message, I'd love to hear from you!

My interview with Jon Johnston. He’s a survivor of a widow maker heart attack and a cardiac arrest that caused him to be without oxygen for 20 minutes, technically dead. He is also an author of two books and a sports website owner. Today he talks to me about his life before his event and how he died but miraculously survived. He shares with me how he pieced together what had happened with the help of family and friends along with his realisation that he was not the only person affected. His heart attack impacted his family and friends in ways that he didn’t expect. Due to oxygen deprivation Jon now lives with a traumatic brain injury and yet during his recovery, he has penned two books to help himself and others with their own recovery. We talk about how Jon lives his life happy and has ambitions for the future despite the change to his life, health, and knowledge that he will never be the person he once was. We talk about Jon’s books and he shares some content with us. Some of his tried and tested activities have helped him and will help you too.

Finding Your Sweet Spot with Cheryl Strachan 30:24

22 weeks тому30:24

30:24

This week is about nutrition, and my guest is Cheryl Strachan of Sweet Spot Nutrition. She is a Registered Dietitian, specialising in cardiac nutrition and wellness. Her mission is to share her love for food that hits the sweet spot. She is also the author of a recipe book. It's called 30-Minute Heart Healthy Cookbook: Delicious Recipes for Easy, Low-Sodium Meals . Cheryl believes that we should focus on eating for health gain, because in the long run, weight loss diets don’t work for most people. Please note that since we recorded this episode, alcohol recommendations have become quite a bit more conservative, due to more recent studies that link alcohol to cancer and heart disease even at relatively low levels. (In Canada the new guidelines say low-risk drinking is 0-2 per week, moderate risk is 3-6 per week, and the risk goes up from there.😳) Today we talk about involvement in cardiac rehab in Calgary and how she developed her model the sweet spot. We have a great discussion about moderation, and what it actually means in real life. We chat about how what you eat can help reduce fatigue and talk about mood foods. If you want to hear her thoughts on chocolate, coffee, and wine, then stay tuned. How to reach Cheryl : https://sweetspotnutrition.ca/ Free Book, The Sweet Spot Guide to Eating Well with Heart Concerns: https://sweetspotnutrition.ca/eating-well-with-heart-concerns/ Why not join Cheryl in the Sweet Spot Kitchen: https://sweetspotnutrition.ca/join-us-in-the-sweet-spot-kitchen .

Cardiac Fiction Egregious Fortune By Aaron David 22:55

27 weeks тому22:55

Today’s episode is going to be rather different; it’s going to be a fictional story. It’s a story of someone that had a heart attack although it is founded in a true story. It’s the first fictional story that I have found about having a cardiac event and I’d like to share it with you. I came across the author, Aaron David in a Facebook group when I was looking for people to proofread and give me feedback on my book ‘ The Beat Goes On’ , a how-to support yourself emotionally and practically guide for once you were discharged from hospital. Aaron agreed, he then told me he was a published author – this nearly gave me my second heart attack as I was then nervous about what he might say. He was amazing and really helped get it just right. In the meantime, I thought I would check out his work and found that he was the author of numerous books of short humorous fiction stories and poems. When I read his book of short stories “ Booky McBookface ” I came across this story that I would like to share with you today. It reminded me of how we never know what is just around the corner and how quickly things can change. Stories can be more than just fictional, they can be metaphors for life. I use them a lot in my hypnotherapy scripts they allow clients to apply their meaning and make the changes they desire. It's not me or Aaron who is going to read the story but another hearty, Tony Richens-Smith. Tony is also a published author he also wrote “Not Everyone Wants a Hug” seeing the world through the eyes of a dog. After his widow-maker during covid he wrote his second book “ My B****** Heart ”, his personal journey after his heart attack. It was when I was listening to his audio book version, I thought I’d ask him to record this for me. So now without any further ado, I will hand you over to Tony and the Egregious (uh·gree·juhs) Fortune.

Quit hiding your magic! You are UNIQUE, you are the only one like you. You have one of a kind fingerprints, not even identical twins have matching ones. You are the outcome of one egg and around 40 million sperm, any other sperm and you would be a different you. You are the only one to see colours the way you do. Remember not to compare yourself with others as there is no comparison. And anyway, you would be matching their outsides (what you see) with your insides (with what you think and feel). The same goes for our health and our life in general. Even if we are feeling broken, we can live with health issues but still be healthy in mind and body. We can still live our lives happy. It really does help to remind yourself that you are good enough and that you are whole, healthy and complete. Do not listen to this episode while driving or operating machinery. Your affirmations: I am whole, healthy and complete I am enough just as I am My completeness is my very nature Say your affirmations 5 times each as a set.

While cleaning your teeth, driving, running, walking your dog, washing the dishes, when you first wake up or the last thing at night.

Fatigue management tips when you have a heart health diagnosis 15:22

This week I am talking more about "how-to" live life with fatigue and minimise the impact. I talk through more tools, rules and ideas to help you manage fatigue and conserve your energy. Here are some of the topics I discuss in this episode. Sleep - whilst it doesn't get rid of fatigue is a good place to start. It means you only have to deal with the fatigue and not tiredness too. Nutrition - keep hydrated and an even blood sugar level if you can. Being safe when travelling - that means you and other people too. Self-awareness - get to know yourself and what helps, tame that voice that tells you stuff that doesn't serve you well. Lifestyle - move around, despite being counterintuitive it will help especially if you're outside with nature. Loving and respecting your body - fatigue management it's the only way!

Relaxamation - Forgiveness Is A Gift 28:10

3 years тому28:10

28:10

For a full understanding of what my relaxamations are make sure you catch up with my episode called Relaxamations to relax and energise when living with heart disease , you can read or listen to me explaining it. In a nutshell, though, relaxamations are a blend of all of the best bits of meditation, guided relaxation, mindfulness and positive affirmations. Imagine this: If you had $86,400 in an account and someone stole $10 from you, would you be upset and throw all of the remaining $86,390 away in hopes of getting back at the person who took your $10? Or move on and live? Right, move on and live. See, we have 86,400 seconds each day. Don’t let someone’s negative 10 seconds ruin the remaining 86,390. Don’t sweat the small stuff. Life is bigger than that. (unknown) Do not listen to this episode while driving or operating machinery. Carrying resentment is holding on to negative energy. It is also a bit like taking poison and hoping the other person will die. Forgiving the other doesn’t mean they were right or you were wrong. It empowers you and disempowers them. You can also forgive yourself. Here are your affirmations from today’s relaxamation: Forgiveness is a gift I give to myself. Forgiveness is a way of showing strength in myself. By forgiving others, I become free of the past. Say your affirmations 5 times each as a set. Repeat your set of affirmations at least once a day. The more you use them the bigger the impact. Add them to a habit that you do every day. While cleaning your teeth, driving, running, walking your dog, washing the dishes, when you first wake up or the last thing at night. Your self-reflection questions are: Whom do I need to forgive? What would I gain by forgiving that person? Can I let go of my negative feelings about that person?

I recently asked in my Facebook community how have people been feeling since their cardiac event or diagnosis. The top answers were Fatigue, Sleep Issues, Anxiety and Lack of Motivation.
