The Ultimate Mindset Change Podcast

Do you struggle with social anxiety, feel a sense of shame and inadequacy when in public, or class yourself as a highly sensitive person? If the answer is yes, then you will find much value in this week's guest interview with Russell Norris, who has successfully battled a debilitating social anxiety disorder, the results of which have now been published in his incredible new book 'Red Face: How I Learnt To Live With Social Anxiety'. Russell joins Paul to discuss the book, how his own social anxiety grew and where he believes it emerged from in his life, and the practical ways in which you yourself can recognise the symptoms and get to work on defeating them.

When you are so anxious about situations in life, and subsequently steer away from them, it means that you miss out on some of the most formative experiences. This can serve to deepen the sense of anxiety and remorse. Sharing the pains of social anxiety can serve to release the inner tension that builds. Trust is the key here. A myth of normality is often perpetuated in the workplace - an unavoidable environment. Not everyone wishes to be "on display" or in a constant state of interaction. Things have shifted in the advent of COVID, and thankfully sensitivities are now being considered with the rise of remote working. QUOTES 'Social anxiety arrived for me with a bang' 'Regret can be quite toxic' 'It removed my anxiety, but it also removed my personality' 'I was always trying to find places where I could find quiet and concentrate' 'It's a myth, that to get the best out of people they have to all be in the same place at the same time' VALUABLE RESOURCES Red Face: How I Learnt To Live With Social Anxiety - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Redface-Learnt-Live-Social-Anxiety-ebook/dp/B08K3X2NW3 Russell Norris Twitter - www.twitter.com/@BeyondTheBlush Mindset Change Podcast Mindset Coaching and Therapy The Mindset Coach UK Instagram Mindset Change YouTube ABOUT THE HOST Paul Sheppard Paul is well known for his holistic therapy and coaching approach  when working with anxiety, stress, confidence, and motivation, understanding, and treating the root causes and surrounding issues He has a passion for understanding how the mind works and has been trained in many therapies.

Are mushrooms healing or dangerous? Lora Solomon is a Nurse Practitioner with over 30 years of healthcare experience, and whose mission it is to "inspire, teach, and mentor you as you transform your wounds into wisdom". Lora is an advocate when it comes to changing the way we give help to those who have suffered trauma, and in this week's episode, she talks to Paul about whether people can actually heal through the use of psychedelics, and whether or not the future of treatments relies on this sometimes controversial method. KEY TAKEAWAYS Trauma can manifest itself as physical illness if not treated properly. It's often been seen as unproven, but it is largely recognised as fact now. Accessibility to psychedelics means opening up this form of treatment to balanced conversation and really trying to table a debate - normalising it. The after effects of the psychedelics is very gentle and doesn't feel like a traditional, painful comedown. This is because the treatment essentially resets your nervous system. If the body is a musical instrument, then this treatment is like tuning. Fear of this treatment comes from the natural human fear of the unknown. People don't like to put themselves into places of which they are unsure. When we overcome this, the benefits will be explosive.

If you feel anxious, confused and tense in life, then this interview is just for you. Paul is joined by world-class coach and Sunday Times best-selling author, Jamie Smart, for a powerful conversation about how to get the things in life that you want and which direction to take when you might be feeling a little aimless. Jamie dives deep into the practical ways in which we can figure out who we are, and what we are truly capable of. KEY TAKEAWAYS There is a fundamental misunderstanding about ourselves, that has us looking externally for answers that can only be found within. We are fully aware that teddy bears or safety objects are not alive, but the feeling of safety is transmitted internally from the child to themselves. We tend to overlook this when, as adults, we replace safety objects with possessions or material items. It's the same thing. We don't attract what we want - we attract what we are. When a person comes back to their true self and have everything they need, we have a different experience of reality. Our own physiology tricks us into believing that we are somehow contained in our bodies and that we look out through our eyes as windows. But that isn't everything. Our senses are data receptors, and this data is collated within us and takes a guess as to the world around us. QUOTES 'All the feelings of wellbeing, peace of mind, security, freedom and love and connection that so many of us are told come from possessions - all of that comes from within' 'We're undergoing a humanitarian crisis in mental health' 'These principles are to psychology what the discovery of germs was to medicine' 'It's going to take stuff off your mind automatically, giving you the freedom and confidence to live a beautiful life' VALUABLE RESOURCES Website: www.JamieSmart.com The Thriving Coaches Podcast - https://www.jamiesmart.com/tcp/ The Get Clarity Podcast - https://www.jamiesmart.com/claritynow/ Jamie Smart Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jamiesmartcom/ Jamie Smart Twitter - www.twitter.com/jamiesmartcom Jamie Smart Facebook - www.Facebook.com/jamiesmartcom Jamie Smart YouTube - www.youtube.com/clarityjamiesmart Jamie Smart LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/JamieSmartClarity Mindset Change Podcast Mindset Coaching and Therapy The Mindset Coach UK Instagram Mindset Change YouTube    ABOUT THE HOST Paul Sheppard Paul is well known for his holistic therapy and coaching approach  when working with anxiety, stress, confidence, and motivation, understanding, and treating the root causes and surrounding issues He has a passion for understanding how the mind works and has been trained in many therapies.

With over 600K followers across his social media channels, Cory has gained popularity for his down-to-earth, engaging, and accessible teachings on mindfulness, wellbeing, and mental health. Cory joins Paul on this episode to discuss the genesis of his incredible book, and how better to take the reins of each day so as to best ensure that we don't ever waste a precious day on earth.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Sometimes the moments in life that cause us pain, can drive us on to look for side routes for relief. These side routes can take us to marvellous, unexpected destinations. We naturally feel a sense of alignment, whether consciously or not, when we are in connection with truth. It is a resonance that we feel within ourselves. When we live a life of misalignment, the result is burnout. The struggle against what does not come naturally causes a friction that turns into exhaustion. Recognising the struggle is the first step to acceptance. Presence is an intimate encounter of what is here with us right now. QUOTES 'I didn't get into meditation for any noble reasons' 'You know you're out of alignment when you constantly have to refresh the story' 'The momentum of it all has taken on a life of its own' 'Surrendering and reducing resistance is a very powerful step to take' VALUABLE RESOURCES Cory Muscara - https://corymuscara.com Mindset Change Podcast Mindset Coaching and Therapy The Mindset Coach UK Instagram Mindset Change YouTube ABOUT THE HOST Paul Sheppard Paul is well known for his holistic therapy and coaching approach  when working with anxiety, stress, confidence, and motivation, understanding, and treating the root causes and surrounding issues He has a passion for understanding how the mind works and has been trained in many therapies.
