19 — Physical Activities to Overcome 7 Common Mental Health Issues Jul 14, 2023

Show notes

There's a lot of information about the mind/body connection and the ways exercise, in general, is good for mental health. But there's a lot less information about the specific exercises that can target certain aspects of emotional well-being.

For example, running is just as effective in combating depression as antidepressants. And one of the best ways to reduce anxiety involves lifting weights. Swimming can even reduce the brain damage caused by stress.

Some of the things I discuss today are the best exercises to combat seven specific mental health concerns, the science behind them, and the ways you can use movement to build mental strength.

Traumatic events can leave lasting emotional wounds. And our natural reaction is to try and pretend like those wounds don't hurt because we don't want to talk about the pain.

Some of the things Duygu talks about are how trauma affects us, why creative writing heals us, and how to know when to seek professional help.

16 — The Truth About Alcohol and Addiction Recovery with Former School Principal / Author Daniel Patterson Jul 03, 2023

People struggling with addiction are often hiding in plain sight. They're your neighbors, co-workers, friends, and maybe even family members.

Daniel Patterson used to be one of those people. He was a high school teacher and assistant principal who had a serious, secret drinking problem. He sometimes tried to make changes — and even saw a therapist — but he minimized the impact alcohol had on his life until he finally couldn't ignore it anymore.

Some of the things he shares are the tricks his addiction played on him to convince him to keep drinking, the things he tried to reduce his drinking that didn't work, and the short-term experiment that eventually led to recovery.
