In Our Nature
Why do we feel so overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected and lost...and what does that have to do with what's happening on our planet?
This show explores the hidden connections and deeper patterns that are forming our inner struggles and the wider crises unfolding around us. From mental health to ecological collapse, productivity culture to planetary grief, from burnout to reconnection, join me to poke around in the stories, systems and patterns shaping this extraordinary time...
...and then let's riff on what becomes possible when we stop pretending it’s fine and feel the feels.
Your host is me: Siobhán Friel. I'm a mental health practitioner, a Work That Reconnects facilitator and I was probably a lavender plant in a past life.
This podcast offers a way to make sense of your inner and outer world, especially if you were shaped by capitalism (like me) and not by a lineage of ecological literacy, love and wisdom.
You haven't missed the boat. There are many boats and this is one. Get in.
In Our Nature
Your Feelings Don't Need an Explanation, Cause or Reason
We humans love to match our feelings with a thing out there in the outside world, don't we?
And no wonder - all of society is set up to reinforce that other people, events, things and situations cause our feelings.
But what if that's not true? And what if seeing more around that can make us feel lighter and more at ease in life?
Join me to explore
- Why it looks like the outside causes our feelings on the inside
- Why this might be the wrong way round entirely
- The benefits and implications for not needing a reason for our feelings
- How to playfully explore this for yourself
