Oh good, you're here. The Inner Peace & Other Cool Shit podcast will help you find freedom from overwhelm, worry, anxiety and stress by exploring a revolutionary understanding of how humans work.

This isn't a tool or a technique. I'm sick of those and I bet you are, too. This is a deeper exploration of what's going on beyond our personal, conditioned thinking and how seeing this can help you live life with more peace, ease and other cool shit.

I'm Siobhán, by the way. Let me in your ears and let's go.

In the first ever episode of the Inner Peace & Other Cool Shit podcast, we're jumping straight into an exploration of how us humans experience life

Have you ever wondered how you experience life? Like, what even is our experience and where does it come from? Are we just at the mercy of whatever crap is thrown at us? Huh? Good news - no we are not.

Come and explore:

• Why understanding how something works (including ourselves) changes everything
• How we think our experience is created
• Where our experience actually comes from
• Why understanding this is helpful, awesome, brilliant, cool, totally rad and other superfluous synonyms when it comes to finding freedom from anxiety, overwhelm and worry
• How to see this for yourself

Plus! Meet Anxious Alice. She's coming on the ride with us.

Our lives are a constant stream of thinking. It could be a good idea to understand the nature of thought, right? In this episode we're looking at the huuuuuge misunderstanding about thoughts which is keeping many of us stuck and miserable.

Come and explore:

• How our whole life is made entirely of thought
• How we think thought works: how it behaves, what it means
• The true nature of thought is not what we think at all
• Why understanding this is a game-changer when it comes to freedom from anxiety, overwhelm and worry
• How to see this for yourself

• Changeable podcast from Dr Amy Johnson

• The true meaning of feelings....which is much, much, much simpler and way better for navigating this human life

Inner peace. Ahhhh. Sounds nice, huh? Want some? Think you need to do a ton of stuff to get there? Good news: inner peace is already inside, waiting to be rediscovered, and there's nothing for you to DO. But there is something to SEE.

Come and explore:

• Where inner peace actually is (um, the clue is in the 'inner', by the way)
• What's in the way of experiencing more peace
• How we can all experience about a trillion times more peace
• How to explore this in your own life
• Can Anxious Alice find peace?

Ever heard that little voice inside tell you to do (or not do) something? I bet you ignored it, right? Yep. Me too. Well we need to stop doing that because we all have a cool guidance system to help us traverse life. And we aren't using it, dammit.

Come and explore:

• How Every Single Person has an inner guidance system
• Why so few of us believe or use this (does it sound too woo?)
• How to get over our hesitation and mistrust and learn to love this cool inbuilt tool
• How relying on our inner guidance helps with anxiety, overthinking and worry
• Is this a bit woo for Anxious Alice?
• Woo is a funny word, isn't it?
• Woo woo woo

Insight is a brand new, totally fresh experience of thought...and life. They are big and small and loud and quiet and hard and soft and everything in between. They transform the shit out of everything.

• How does insight help with anxiety, stress, worry and overthinking?
• How can we get more of these magical little things?
