Are you a social media approval addict?
•
Are you addicted to that dopamine hit of social media approval. And is this negatively affecting your mental health. In this episode I talk about approval addiction and its relationship to self esteem. I recommend and read excerpts from 'The Six Pillars of Self Esteem' by Nathaniel Branden and an article published on the 'Choosing Therapy' website https://www.choosingtherapy.com/approval-addict/

What does becoming more "conscious" mean?
24:58In the spiritual community we often hear the terms "expanding your consciousness". "I'm expanding my consciousness". But what does this even mean. In this episode I give a brief description of what this means to me. I also talk about consumption... the consumption of self help material in books and in podcasts. Is it useful to over-consume. At what point do we stop consuming and start giving back... this is my aim with this show.Thank you for listening.
