One Calm Voice Podcast

Join Catherine in this episode as she explores what happens when we give so much of ourselves to support others be that in personal relationships, working relationship or in a volunteering capacity. This episode endeavours to find a balance between doing and being, caring for others and caring for self. It tries to illuminate the truth that your needs are as important as the needs of others & that self care is a critical way to support ourselves in this busy, busy world. This episode was recorded in one take so there may be imperfections but that's reflective of real life - imperfect! and Catherine's goal in this podcast and this life is not the attainment of perfection but rather the acceptance of her flawed self.

Join Catherine this week as she unpicks what happens when we find ourselves facing conflict.

In this week's episode Catherine offers a way to effectively begin to detox your mind in the way you would your body after the overindulgences of the holiday season. In this episode Catherine outlines how our thoughts are the foundation of the life we lead as our thoughts determine our words which determine our actions which in turn creates our life as we know it. So according to Catherine it only stands to reason that we should really be deliberate in the choosing which thoughts we allow pass across the threshold of our minds and which thoughts we do not allow access to our inner most sanctum. In this episode she also introduces a short practice to begin to allow the body to find stillness for without a still body its almost impossible to have a still mind. Have a little listen in if you have any desire to dip your toe in the sea of contentment.
