Episode description
Welcome to Episode 9 of the Potential Psychology Podcast!
In this episode I chat to the delightful Laura Braid from The Sweet Life. Laura started her career as a forensic psychologist in Scotland, delivered ground breaking programs with offenders in the New Zealand prison system and now runs her private practice, the gorgeously named, The Sweet Life, in Auckland.
Our discussion delves into therapy, courage, vulnerability, acceptance and happiness.
We discuss:
•Mindfulness and how to let judgement exit stage left
•Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as a tool for a happier life
•How to keep psychologically flexible so that our 'negative' thoughts don't take control, and
•Getting out of our heads and into our lives!
It's a wonderful, in-depth discussion filled with humour, insight, ideas and self revelation!
Enjoy.
