155 - Nadyne McKie - Embracing Kindness on the Healing Journey
Episode 155
Wednesday, 20 November, 2024
Have you ever felt the weight of an unexpected life challenge shift your entire perspective? Join me & Nadyne McKie, who combines her unique blend of psychotherapy, yoga therapy, and breathing coaching to guide those navigating the turbulent waters of Long Covid. Nadyne opens up about her personal journey; how her own experiences & those of her child have reshaped her understanding of health. Her story serves as a beacon of hope, illustrating the potential for growth & joy even in the midst of adversity.Throughout our conversation, we examine the complexities of stress & its pervasive impact on our health. Nadyne shares her wisdom on transitioning from a stress-fueled existence to one that cherishes rest & self-care—an often daunting task given societal norms that equate rest with laziness. We challenge these misconceptions, advocating for a healthier narrative where taking time to simply be is not only acceptable but essential. Nadyne's insights into cognitive fatigue & the digital world's demands highlight the urgent need to redefine rest & productivity, especially on a recovery journey.We touch upon the significance of self-compassion & the transformative power of gentle movement. Nadyne invites us to reconsider exercise not as a rigorous task but as a nurturing practice that listens to the body's needs, embracing exercises that feel good rather than those that punish the body. This is a call to healthcare professionals and listeners alike to practice self-compassion, seek support, & engage with their healing journey through a lens of kindness & understanding.Links:Purchase "Breathe, Rest, Recover" by Nadyne McKie & Fiona Agombar (20% off direct from Signing Dragon: BRR20SD)Order from AmazonMessage the podcast! - questions will be answered on my youtube channel :) For more information about Long Covid Breathing courses & workshops, please check out LongCovidBreathing.com (music credit - Brock Hewitt, Rule of Life) Support the show~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The Long Covid Podcast is self-produced & self funded.
