It's like twenty degrees or eighteen clear skies. 81 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: It's actually quite nice camber this time. Ye, no wind, 82 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: no rain. Yeah, all that's very cool. 83 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 2: And we are going to talk about health behavior change, 84 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 2: which is a big, massive topic, and no doubt we 85 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 2: will go down lots of rabbit holes, but let's start 86 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 2: high level. Actually, let's introduce you first, So exercise physiologists 87 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 2: mindset coach, just talk a little bit about your journey 88 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 2: and why you got interested in a exercise physiology and 89 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 2: then why you're going to interest it in the whole 90 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 2: mindset thing. I think it might be quite similar to 91 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:11,799 Speaker 2: my journey and that space. 92 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think the way way way back when 93 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 3: I was a little kids, you know, I was in sports, 94 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 3: and probably a little slither of it that I only 95 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 3: understand now is I used to go off running I 96 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 3: lived in the country and I go running off between 97 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 3: the paddocks and all that kind of stuff, and thought 98 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 3: it was thought it was a healthy thing to do. 99 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 3: But now looking back and understanding my story, it was 100 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 3: literally me running away. So fitness was this. It was 101 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 3: also an avoidance tool. There were places where I'd feel 102 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 3: quite confident and couldn't get that confidence somewhere else, So 103 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 3: that as an adult and as a practitioner, eventually became 104 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 3: really quite powerful for going Okay, hang on a second, 105 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 3: is this exercise or the pavior going about actually serving 106 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 3: a healthy purpose or is it fulfilling something else that 107 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 3: needs a little bit of examination behind it as well? 108 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 2: That opens a massive hold, sorry, into the whole orthorexia condition, 109 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 2: which we will come back to. But I just wanted 110 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: to plant that seed, nigh, so jump sorry, jump back 111 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 2: into your shof Yeah. 112 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 3: And then it became just wanting to liking exercise. Clearly 113 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 3: that was a place where I felt safe, so you know, 114 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 3: it was on my mind. So I liked the idea 115 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 3: of helping people with exercise, but I didn't really understand 116 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 3: what that was when I was younger, and then interestingly, 117 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 3: I struggled with mental health and arexia. Later in my life, 118 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 3: in the later years and into the end of high school, 119 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:59,479 Speaker 3: start of academia world, and in that time, my pe 120 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 3: teacher introduced us to the inside of a muscle and 121 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 3: I was like, that is all for me. I was like, 122 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 3: that is amazing. How was that pert so kind of 123 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 3: really zooming in and like going, oh my god, that 124 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 3: is happening inside me just blew my mind. And that's 125 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 3: where I was like, Okay, that's where I want to go. 126 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 3: So I headed off there at university. And then there's 127 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 3: I think there's a lot of people that believe that 128 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 3: the thing that we get pulled to is ultimately the 129 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 3: thing we're trying to fix in. 130 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 1: Ourselves, certainly with psychologists. 131 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, apologies to the psychologists. 132 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: I'm only half joking. 133 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 3: Only half. And interestingly enough, I didn't have the I 134 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 3: didn't have the wherewiout to trust myself to do psych 135 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 3: as my major in my undergrad but I did have 136 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 3: a friend that did the psych subjects, and I would 137 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 3: go with him and just sit with him and you know, 138 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 3: listen and observe. My brother was a Youngian enthusiast, so 139 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 3: I learned from film and then later on I became 140 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 3: an AP and did all of that and working with people, 141 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 3: and a little bit of a collision of my own 142 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 3: interest in I can write the perfect program, but that 143 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 3: person can come back and will not have done it. 144 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 3: So my excitement, enthusiasm, whatever else goes into it versus 145 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 3: their reality, the balance of me not being mature enough 146 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 3: to understand or delve into their kind of life and 147 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 3: all those challenges and you evolve and you get better 148 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 3: as a clinician. But also somewhere in there, I was 149 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 3: having my own struggles and went off to see a 150 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 3: psychologist who was an act psychologist, and similar time a 151 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 3: friend had given me the happiness trap. Oh yeah, just 152 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 3: by chance, those two came together, and I started to go, oh, 153 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 3: so my set behavior change and my program don't naturally 154 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 3: just come together. I need to be able to understand 155 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 3: the workings of someone's story, what's going on, what's behind 156 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 3: the behaviors that get in the way, to then be 157 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 3: able to facilitate them to be able to actually do 158 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 3: what they want to do. So's that was kind of 159 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 3: this evolution of the version of me as an EP 160 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 3: at the moment. 161 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's quite interesting because my story was reasonably similar 162 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 2: along with it a number of significant diversions. So I 163 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 2: did a master's in exercise science. Then I joined the 164 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 2: military and had a diversion, but did a master's in nutrition. 165 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 2: While I was doing the helicopter starch and rescue KME 166 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 2: to Australia, set up in our mutual friend create Harper's 167 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 2: business as an EP and nutritionist, and after I was 168 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 2: writing programs and giving nutrition programs and go saying this 169 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 2: is perfect, this is all people need, and they just 170 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 2: wouldn't change. And that's when I went off and studied 171 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 2: neuroscience because I'm like, I need to understand what's driving 172 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 2: human behavior here, because you know, these people come with 173 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 2: a clear need. They're saying that they want to get fit, 174 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 2: they want to improve their diet, and I'm giving them 175 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 2: the perfect. 176 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: Program and they're just not doing it. What the hell's 177 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: going on? 178 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,959 Speaker 3: It's such an agitation, is it? Because you lay your 179 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 3: head down at the end of that what have I 180 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 3: done wrong? What am I missing? So it's like this 181 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 3: purposeful pursuit that you're on when it feels unsatisfying because 182 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 3: you're not helping in the way that you want to. 183 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 3: It's a real driver. It's yeah, it's cool that. 184 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: Actually. 185 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 2: I remember I had a client, Rosemary, and she was brilliant. 186 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: She'd come to me all the time. 187 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 2: She was an older lady, and I'd be exercising with her, 188 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 2: and then I did all the EP stuff, right, So 189 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 2: I did a whole heap of different testing on her, 190 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 2: and then I was I was giving her all her 191 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,559 Speaker 2: results around her her VO two from a submax test, 192 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 2: and her strength and all this stuff. And then she 193 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 2: went said to me, Paul, I can see that this 194 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 2: is really interesting for you, but it means nothing to me. 195 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 2: And I went home that night and I thought, fucking hell, 196 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 2: She's right. You know, I'm talking about all this stuff 197 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 2: that's interesting. That's what actually stimulated me to create my 198 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 2: BIOEID software. Was gone, Hardy, I take all these numbers 199 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 2: that are relevant and interesting for an exercise scientist and 200 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 2: make them interesting and useful for a middle aged woman 201 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 2: who's my client. And so I and she was the 202 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 2: first client that I ran through my bioed software and 203 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 2: showed her that her biologically it's based on all of 204 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: these normative data tables that I had that I created, 205 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 2: spent months creating us. And then she went, Okay, now 206 00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 2: you've got me because her biological age was about sixty years. 207 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 3: Older important to me and it was like. 208 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 2: Okay, that's when I sat down and did a bit 209 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 2: of motivational and interviewing about you know, where do you 210 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 2: want to get to? And bomb had a massive impact 211 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 2: on her because she was determined to get her biologically 212 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 2: age younger. Right, So let's talk about the whole thing 213 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 2: about motivation because there's so many people waiting for the 214 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 2: motivation fairy to come along and give them a dullop 215 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 2: of motivation and to get started. 216 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: So why is big, big, big question? Why do people 217 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 1: find health behavior change so hard? 218 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 3: I think I think a massive thing is is because 219 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 3: it's uncomfortable there you have to go off autopilot. I 220 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 3: think a helpful phrase I found at the moment is 221 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 3: how does that goal fit in with your life? And 222 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 3: when you look down it and go okay, it's going 223 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 3: to take this many hours of exercise participation for you 224 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 3: to get to this point. At this amount of time, 225 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 3: you're going to have to clear out your cupboards and 226 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 3: have a completely different dietary. If you want to do 227 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 3: it excellently, you're going to have to have a strong 228 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 3: conversation with your family about reallocating time, and so when 229 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 3: the goal doesn't actually fit in with your life, there's 230 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 3: discomfort around that as well, because it's a retaliation with 231 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 3: a partner, or it doesn't fit in with your work 232 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 3: life somehow, And then there's the actual discomfort of what 233 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 3: is physically and mentally required to do the thing, along 234 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 3: with just life is busy. I haven't fit this in 235 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 3: with my life, and the skill of adaptability as well, 236 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 3: because I think if there's most of us, because I 237 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 3: guess we're not getting to make the decisions ourselves. We 238 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 3: have to rely on something that Paul said. And if 239 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,079 Speaker 3: if we do it that way, but then something gets 240 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 3: in the way and you don't have that skill of 241 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 3: adaptability in your decision making or access to usk that question, 242 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 3: then a lot of people just go, oh, well, it 243 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 3: didn't happen. So I think there's lots of elements to them, 244 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 3: and some are stronger for some people than others. But 245 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 3: as a human it is hard to feel discomfort. It's 246 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 3: quite natural for us to move away from it. So 247 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 3: if we haven't locked in our why and why things 248 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 3: are important to us, we can't then shift the internal 249 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 3: dialogue when things are hard and tired and uncomfortable why 250 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 3: we would continue to pursue something in that way. So 251 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 3: I think the missing cog for a lot of people 252 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 3: is not finding that person to have that conversation with. 253 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 3: And I guess for some that are reading all the 254 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 3: self help books as well, but then not actually kind 255 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 3: of moving it across into your own behavior because that 256 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 3: has a level of discomfort to it as well, when 257 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 3: you've got to change your thought process or come to 258 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 3: an uncomfortable realization about you and the way you do something. 259 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 3: So I think there's elements of discomfort that are hard 260 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 3: for people to lean into, and we just don't set 261 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 3: it up to fit into our life. 262 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a pretty big one about it fits in 263 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 2: with your life and actually having people think about because 264 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 2: we you know, we all create these goals. You know, 265 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 2: most people want to be fitter than they currently are 266 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 2: a lot of them we want to lose a bit 267 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 2: of weir it and go you know, if I'm fitter 268 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 2: and I lose weir it, I'm going to feel a 269 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 2: lot better. And so they set these goals and they 270 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 2: get very enthusiastic at the start, but as you say, 271 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 2: if they haven't actually gone Okay, so what is this 272 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 2: going to tick to get there? And how am I 273 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: going to fit all that in with being busy? You know, 274 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 2: I've got kids, have got a job, of all of 275 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 2: that stuff. And then the conversation around the partner. I 276 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 2: think what a lot of people don't realize is that 277 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 2: partners can either help them along or they can be saboteurs. 278 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 2: And people go, what do you mean saboteurs? And it's like, well, 279 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 2: who has ever you know, either been a smoker that 280 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 2: wanted to stop smoking or being a drinker and they're 281 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 2: trying to stop their drinking and either their partner or 282 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 2: their friends are just like offering them cigarettes, offering them 283 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 2: alcohol and stuff. And it's not so much that they 284 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 2: are being vindictive and they're trying to derel you and 285 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 2: your goals. It's basically they see you changing a behavior 286 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 2: that makes them feel shit because they don't have the 287 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 2: will party change the behavior. So the best way to 288 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 2: justify their own behavior is to bring you down to 289 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 2: their level. 290 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 3: Right, bring you back in. And it happens so often, 291 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 3: and also for the doer in some ways, it's hard 292 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 3: to not get drawn back because if you're the one 293 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 3: going off and doing the doing. You've got to be 294 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 3: able to do it by yourself. You've got to be 295 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 3: willing to wave goodbye and go off and do it 296 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 3: and have the other person not there. And then the 297 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 3: very tricky place when if people aren't celebrating each other, Oh, 298 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 3: i'll see you doing a good thing, go for it. 299 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 3: I'll make the time. And that then we do need 300 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,640 Speaker 3: the psychologist on the call for that one. For all 301 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 3: the trickiness in you know that those things that make 302 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 3: it hard to be in a relationship as well, So 303 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 3: the trickiness of being in a relationship with yourself and 304 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 3: making decisions and then whatever complexity has come with the 305 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 3: partner as well. And yeah, what are the circumstances that 306 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,239 Speaker 3: pull you out of your drive when you've made this 307 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 3: decision and you're on your way to try and make 308 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 3: these habits that are going to stick. Who's pulling you down? 309 00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's why I will have to say to people, Look, 310 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 2: if you want to make these changes, who's in your 311 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 2: life and what are their behaviors and if they are 312 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 2: doing the behaviors that you're wanting to stop, go and 313 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 2: have a conversation with them. Ideally, see if they are 314 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 2: willing and keen to come along the journey. 315 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: With you, because that can be great. 316 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 2: But if they're not, have that conversation about not being 317 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 2: a saboteur. Yeah, because people do it unconsciously, right, They 318 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 2: sabotize others unconsciously, and often it's not vindictive. 319 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 1: It's just the fact that they. 320 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:41,439 Speaker 2: Feed shit seeing you doing something that they would like 321 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 2: to do but don't have the will power of the 322 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 2: motivation to do so. They just the easiest way is 323 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 2: to just to justify their own behavior by bringing you 324 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 2: back into the fold. 325 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:54,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, and also your connected habits, like at the end 326 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,919 Speaker 3: of the night when you plan to do a stretched 327 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,120 Speaker 3: session so that you're ready to go the next morning 328 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 3: with your early wake up and you get a good 329 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 3: night's sleep. If the way you've always connected is by 330 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,439 Speaker 3: watching a show together or having a glass of wine, yes, 331 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 3: all of that. The way you connect needs to change 332 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 3: as well. So the way you nurture your relationship might 333 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 3: have to take a shift as well, and it might 334 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 3: require that Okay, we still do to sit down and 335 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,159 Speaker 3: you have that glass of wine, but I've got to 336 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 3: have the willpower to connect with you without the wine 337 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 3: as well. So what's mine. 338 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 2: Please don't offer me, Please don't offer me a bloody 339 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 2: glass of wine, because. 340 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 3: They don't wave it under my nose. 341 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 2: Yes, because in that presence, and this is the thing 342 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,679 Speaker 2: that a lot of people don't understand. So you can 343 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 2: have great willpar and I'm not going to drink, but 344 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 2: as soon as your partner brings out a glass of alcohol, 345 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 2: that is activating dopamine in your brain, right, And dopamine 346 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:57,440 Speaker 2: is the chemical of gold directed behavior and motivation. So 347 00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 2: this is what people don't As soon as you see it, 348 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,360 Speaker 2: as soon as you walk past the cake shop, right, 349 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 2: there's that memory in your brain that creates an emotional sealience, 350 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 2: a drive to do it, releases dopamine which makes you 351 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 2: want to go and do the behavior. 352 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 1: So it's really really hard. 353 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 2: It's hard enough to be changing those behaviors, but then 354 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 2: whenever you see those things right in front of you, 355 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 2: that makes it so much bloody harder, doesn't it. 356 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, all the senses are you know, we're sensory. We 357 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 3: have a sense of things before we're aware of the 358 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 3: thought around them. And this is the tricky part, because 359 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 3: we're survived. We've got salivation over the wine because we've 360 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 3: seen it before we've even had the thought of wanting 361 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 3: it or deflecting it or any of those things. So 362 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,880 Speaker 3: we do. It's funny, right because we talk about the 363 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 3: senses that we have, but in teroception and proprioception and 364 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 3: never in the conversation. And once we have an experience 365 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 3: with those, they can be or train them to be 366 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 3: more heightened. These can be maybe the more powerful ones 367 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 3: in terms of disruption of habits. And you know what 368 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 3: state am I in? This is the stat I mean 369 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 3: we're usually reached for a glass of wine. So what's 370 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 3: the communication I need to have as soon as I 371 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 3: walk through the door to have that partner be in 372 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 3: my corner? 373 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, that day. 374 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 2: Inter reception really really important because, as you say, there's 375 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 2: a little alarm that often goes off in people's brilliance. 376 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 2: It's like six o'clock, it's onine o'clock, and it's subconscious. 377 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 2: But talk to people about what interception is because we 378 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 2: need to include that as part of our senses. 379 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: I totally agree with you. 380 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 2: So what it is and how can people enhance their interception? 381 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 2: I think you use breathwork to help people en hunter it, 382 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 2: But just give people a sense of what that is 383 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 2: in some ways that they can improve it. 384 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 3: At the absolute basic definition, it's your ability to be 385 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 3: aware of the internal of you and what it's doing. 386 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 3: So an easy wood would be being able to sense 387 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 3: your heart rate, so be able to sit still and 388 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 3: know the rhythm of your heart and how it's beating. 389 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,679 Speaker 3: And then that comes over to you're getting ready for 390 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 3: a podcast and it's with an interesting person and you 391 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 3: hope you're going to do well, so you notice your 392 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 3: heart rate going faster. That's fine. This is important for 393 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 3: me to be driven and have a level of interest 394 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 3: in talking to Paul. But if I am not, if 395 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 3: that's something that's going to go higher to an arousal level, 396 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden I can't speak and 397 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 3: get my thoughts together. That's an indication of where I've 398 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 3: got to be aware of where is my internal body 399 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 3: at as an indicator for me to what I've got 400 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 3: to do to then bring myself to a state that's 401 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 3: going to be more appropriate for the staff meeting or 402 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 3: meeting up with someone that creates anger in me, and 403 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 3: I want to be there in my best version of myself. 404 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 3: So having that interoception, Am I hungry? Am I thirsty, 405 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 3: do I need to go to the toilet? Like it's 406 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 3: all the things we start we teach kids, but using 407 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 3: them as something that's important to us as well. I 408 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 3: know I'm a bit of a I've had trouble with 409 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,399 Speaker 3: this in the past, where if I'm I've got a 410 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 3: higher arousal level, I'm trying to get the kids to 411 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 3: school on time, times slipped up in some way. You 412 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 3: know that you're meant to have this T shirt for 413 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 3: school and it's not clean, and now I'm trying to 414 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 3: wash it real quick. If my arousal levels up naturally, 415 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 3: I have less need for food. But then I go 416 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 3: right ahead and forget about food altogether. So my need 417 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 3: for food, and then I get to halfway through the morning, 418 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,360 Speaker 3: I'm like, why am I agitated? 419 00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 2: Some people are completely the opposite as well, right, And 420 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 2: I think I suspect I remember reading about this years ago. 421 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 2: I suspect this is whether you are sympathetic nervous system 422 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 2: dominant or HPA access system dominant under stress. So people 423 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 2: who are sympathetic nervous system dominant, it's more about adrenaline 424 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 2: and that will suppress appetite, whereas those are more HPA 425 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:32,120 Speaker 2: access dominant, it's more releasing cortisol, which drives hunger. And 426 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 2: so some people eat when they're stressed, some people don't 427 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 2: eat when they're stressed. 428 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 1: Some people lose it with stress. Some people gain a 429 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 1: ship they will when they're stressed. 430 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it kind of comes back to our conversation 431 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,680 Speaker 3: as well about feelings of discomfort and how we respond 432 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 3: to them to try and gain comfort and in a 433 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 3: way homeostasis again from a mental and emotional point of view, 434 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 3: and the reach for the wine and all of that 435 00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 3: kind of thing. And also it's interesting with cortisol as 436 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 3: well because in theory, leatin and quartsole should be in 437 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 3: opposition to each other. So when our cortsole's high, our 438 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 3: leptin should be low. So you know, I'm hungry in 439 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 3: the morning to get my day started and at particular 440 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 3: kind of rhythms of my quartsole to kind of match 441 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 3: in with eating cycles and things like that. But in 442 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 3: our stressful life, you know, if we bumped our cortsole 443 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 3: way way way way down, or have we got our 444 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 3: quartersole riding way way way too high, and then how 445 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 3: does that relate to the signals of hunger? And then 446 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 3: you know what comes into our role as mind management people, 447 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 3: bodage management people of how do we help you use 448 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 3: tools to get you back into a more natural rhythm 449 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 3: of arousal and recovery straight like based on old tradeing 450 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 3: rhythms and things like that, so interoception can be It 451 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 3: always comes with thought though, right my version of it 452 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 3: is needing to slow down to then get my hunger 453 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 3: signals back and being now to be aware that. So 454 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 3: how you're operating right now? Okay, you're yelling a little bit, 455 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 3: you're rushing around, you can't get your thoughts together, versus 456 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 3: the other version, which is your your stressed but you 457 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,640 Speaker 3: find yourself distracted and walking to the fridge all the time. 458 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 3: It's like it's almost it's an act thing, right, the 459 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 3: ability to observe yourself as a viewer of yourself and 460 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 3: watches if you're a character in a documentary and get 461 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 3: to know your habits and what was the curiosity withous 462 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 3: curiosity without judgment. Because we're a loving we're bringing love 463 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 3: to ourselves to find solutions. And in the circumstance where 464 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 3: I find myself at the fridge when I was meant 465 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 3: to be doing something that was a stressful task, am 466 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 3: I avoiding the discomfort what emotion came before that, and 467 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 3: that food then becomes it makes me feel. 468 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: Better, Yeah, soothes, soothes nice. 469 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 2: And and this is the thing, right, that is that 470 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 2: everybody's brain has worked out to this point how to 471 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 2: handle stress, right, because because my brain goes, I'll fucking 472 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 2: sort this out, bring me alcohol, right, whereas other people 473 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,360 Speaker 2: it's like, bring me food and don't bring me bloody 474 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 2: carrot sticks and celery sticks, bring me fat, sugar, salt 475 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 2: and any combinations of those things and usable yeah, and 476 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 2: and and these become unconscious behaviors and unconscious habits. So 477 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 2: as you say that interception and that being self aware 478 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:50,679 Speaker 2: at multiple different levels about how I actually respond in 479 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 2: certain situations automatically, that that sometimes these responses are deep 480 00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 2: seeded from your childhood and you do I don't know 481 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 2: why you do it, but your body's just on order 482 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 2: part it because we are on attle parto with lots 483 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 2: of our habits on me. 484 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I guess it's metabolically easier until you get 485 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,119 Speaker 3: to a point where I find personally you're saying the 486 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 3: same thing to people but you haven't done the thing. 487 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 3: And then I start to get annoyed by myself. So 488 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 3: open water swimming was a perfect example. I liked the 489 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 3: idea adea of trying a triathlon in my life, and 490 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 3: the real hard part was open water swimming. And for 491 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 3: years I was talking to people, Oh, yeah, I'd like 492 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 3: to give that a god, I'd like to give that 493 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 3: a go, And then I just kindly observe myself. I 494 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 3: say that a lot and I don't do it, so 495 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 3: either I don't mean it, or I need to examine 496 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 3: what I'm talking about. So it's often helpful to observe 497 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 3: or ask people, is that something you say a lot? 498 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 3: Give them that option to go? Actually, yes, I say 499 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 3: that to my partner all the time, or I say 500 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 3: that to friends, you know, when they're talking about their 501 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 3: exercise endeavors and I'm feeling a little bit envious or 502 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 3: jealous or belittling myself. I talk about the things I 503 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 3: think I'm going to do or I'd like to do, 504 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 3: but I never examine that. So I think it's always 505 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 3: helpful again to it's as a sense thing again as 506 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 3: here myself, and to your point, who am I round 507 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 3: when I say those things? And you know why am 508 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 3: I saying them? I saying them because I'm trying to 509 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 3: prop myself up or bring myself down around someone that's 510 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 3: not actually a wonderful power in my life, because some 511 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 3: people do have those tricky relationships. And then how do 512 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 3: I use my beautiful vagus nerve to pull back what 513 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 3: I say or let myself say what's required to say. 514 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 3: So it's I think an examined life for me is 515 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 3: one that's better at seeking optimal versions of ourselves and 516 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 3: creating a life that matters when we kind of look 517 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 3: back and think about how we're going about it day 518 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 3: and how we're relating to people. 519 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 1: So tell me how you use ACT for people? 520 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 2: So for the listener's acceptance and commitment therapy, which I 521 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 2: think every listener of this podcast will be familiar with 522 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 2: that because Kylie is a practitioner in it, But how 523 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 2: do you use ACT with clients and even with yourself 524 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 2: as well? 525 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, it usually comes as they're seeking. They've come from 526 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 3: mind management and behavior and habit disruption, so that's their 527 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 3: main goal understanding that's why I do it, versus it's 528 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 3: the conversation about these are my goals, this is what 529 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 3: I want to do, and then I guess the pace 530 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 3: and the process of how they've been going about it. 531 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 3: You know, how long has this been a challenge for you? 532 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 3: You know what things get in the way, and then 533 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 3: quite naturally opening up the idea of if this is 534 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 3: something that has been a problem for three years, or 535 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 3: there's a pattern that's going on. It's that open conversation 536 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 3: about do you feel that looking at the patterns of 537 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 3: what's going on is a more helpful start than actually 538 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 3: getting on with the running schedule and then just sort 539 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 3: of gently putting them together, because it's usually that they've 540 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 3: stopped started, stop started many many times, or they've got 541 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,479 Speaker 3: an injury that's been hanging around for a long time 542 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 3: that for a lot of people that are willing to 543 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 3: do the work, it's annoying to them. They don't want 544 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 3: the pain. They do want the accolades of the run 545 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 3: that they said they were going to do four years ago. 546 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 3: Or for some that I work with who are coming 547 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 3: to perimenopause, there's this interesting transaction where there's bodies are 548 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 3: naturally changing shape, and all of a sudden, they're forcing 549 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 3: themselves to do exercise because they're doing it like they 550 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 3: used to do, and then their bodies are rejecting it 551 00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 3: because their whole body and brain is recalibrating. There's this 552 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 3: kind of themes around them, and even though values are 553 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 3: a deep part of it, values are often a later 554 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 3: conversation that kind of sculpts and details the process. But 555 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 3: for me, I'm a huge fan of the choice point. 556 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 1: That's my O. Yes, want to teach people through that. 557 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 2: Some may have remembered because Carli's talked about it, but 558 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 2: long time ago. 559 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: I love this choice point. 560 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, absolute favorite. So the choice can be 561 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 3: used as you literally bring yourself into a moment of 562 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 3: time where things are often just it's that time where 563 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 3: you know something goes wrong, versus you can use it 564 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 3: around values where you just look at your values, you 565 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 3: identify them, and what we want to figure out around 566 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 3: this habit or this moment in time or these values. 567 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 3: When you become hooked by a thought or a memory 568 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 3: or a story or something that is has the capacity 569 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 3: to take you away from the version of you that 570 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 3: you're seeking to be and the behaviors and patterns that 571 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 3: you're wanting to sculpt, being aware of either what those patterns, behaviors, 572 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 3: memories are, and then eventually having a relationship with those 573 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 3: you know, when I get pulled by I've come into 574 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 3: the room with someone that's difficult for me to have 575 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 3: conversations with. I get hooked by a memory, and then 576 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 3: that pushes me to a high level of arousal and 577 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 3: I get agitated, and then I become sarcastic or snippy, 578 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 3: and then I'm having trouble pulling back from that, and 579 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, I'm withdrawn from everyone in the room. 580 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 3: But the version of me that I would like to 581 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 3: be is friendly, open and available. And then all of 582 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 3: a sudden, I've been hooked. I'm lost in this ability 583 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 3: to do it. And then we have this other arm 584 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 3: if you can imagine, you know, a v where from 585 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 3: that bottom of the choice point, I can feel the 586 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 3: potential to be hooked by these memories, scenarios, or a 587 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 3: value that I'm detaching myself from. And then the towards 588 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 3: moves are things that maybe we've never done before, things 589 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 3: behaviors that are more workable towards me moving towards the 590 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:23,479 Speaker 3: version that I want to be. So these sometimes can 591 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,919 Speaker 3: be diffusion strategies, things that help me to unhook from 592 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 3: a memory or a thought and allow myself just to 593 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 3: be that little bit closer to the version you know, 594 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 3: just one mark closer out of ten to the conversation 595 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 3: I'd like to have, or being able to notice that 596 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 3: I'm feeling agitated and being able to do something that 597 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:50,919 Speaker 3: allows me to communicate my value to that person or 598 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 3: give myself the amount of time that feels safe to 599 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 3: me to participate in that conversation. So the towards and 600 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 3: a way moves that allow us to be able to, 601 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 3: I guess, save ourselves a little bit. I can feel 602 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 3: that I'm hooked and I'm abandoning myself and who I 603 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,240 Speaker 3: want to be. And then the towards moves. What's these 604 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 3: slow moves that we can slowly put into play that 605 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 3: allows us to be closer to the version of us 606 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 3: that feels meaningful and yeah, purposeful, I think the other words. 607 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to give you a very concrete example 608 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 2: of this right from yesterday because it's fresh in my mind. 609 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 2: So I'd done I was in camera, I've done a workshop. 610 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 2: I've done a whole day workshop, which is pretty draining 611 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 2: when you're talking for an entire day. There was probably 612 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 2: fifty sixty people in the room and it was great workshop. 613 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 2: But I got to the airport and my flight was 614 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 2: not for an iron half, and I went and so 615 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 2: to see if I could get on an earlier flight, 616 00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,280 Speaker 2: and so the guy put me on an earlier flight 617 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 2: and he bumped me up the business and I'm like, 618 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 2: I didn't even realize until I was walking on. I'm like, 619 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 2: oh shit, I didn't realize that. So I got on, 620 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 2: I'm coming home. And then they come around with dinner 621 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 2: and said, do you want a glass of wine? 622 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: Right? So being an irishman an ex fucking choice point 623 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: right there. Right. 624 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 2: So here's the thing for people to understand about the 625 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 2: choice point is that there is a situation that happens 626 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 2: and that arises thoughts, feelings, emotions, right, and so Pardony's going, 627 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 2: oh yeah, the glass of wine would be lovely, right, 628 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 2: That's just the best way to just chill out on 629 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 2: the way home. And then I'm like, fucking hell, this 630 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 2: is the choice point right here. And that comes I 631 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 2: think the choice point was created from Victor Frankel, and 632 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 2: that realizing in ours fits that he said, man is 633 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,320 Speaker 2: capable of terrible things to fellow man, particularly in times 634 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 2: of war, can take away all your dignity, your pride, 635 00:36:56,640 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 2: your belongings, even your loved ones. He can take everything 636 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 2: but one thing, and he called it the last of 637 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 2: human freedoms, your ability to choose how you react to 638 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 2: your circumstances. 639 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 1: Right. 640 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 2: So for me, I'm there sitting there with this choice point. 641 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 2: I'm going to have the glass of wine, which, knowing me, 642 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 2: will turn into two or three glasses of wine, right, 643 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:21,719 Speaker 2: and that I know you and I know me, right, 644 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 2: And so there's towards in a way moove just like 645 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 2: you said that v and actually having the glass of 646 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,880 Speaker 2: wine is in a way move because it takes me 647 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 2: away from the person that I want to be. And 648 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 2: you know, it also takes me away from my ability 649 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 2: to do work because I've got a shipload on before 650 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 2: we go away. But it's the alluring thing, right. And 651 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 2: then towards move is to actually say no, I don't 652 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 2: want to have the glass of wine, because that takes 653 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 2: me towards the person that I want to be, you know, 654 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,879 Speaker 2: being healthier, all of that sort of stuff, and having 655 00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 2: to get my work done. But you know, the thing 656 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 2: that that made me say no was connecting to my 657 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 2: value of authenticity. So that's that's a pretty deeply hell 658 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 2: value of mine. And I thought you've just done a 659 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:16,160 Speaker 2: workshop with a whole bunch of people talking about pig performance, right, 660 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 2: and if you want to be authentic, usol will say no. 661 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 2: And authenticity is often the thing that I use. It's 662 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 2: the it's the value for me with the choice point 663 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:31,879 Speaker 2: of the alarm goes off and it's half past five, 664 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 2: you got a choice point of whether you get out 665 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,240 Speaker 2: of bed to work out or whether you press snoots. 666 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 2: And for me, that value of authenticity is often the 667 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 2: one that does it. So I think that's that's just 668 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:50,240 Speaker 2: a very recent example of connecting your values to help 669 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 2: you make towards moves. 670 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's interesting too, write well, the values are 671 00:38:55,640 --> 00:39:00,359 Speaker 3: beautiful in that there often that that beautiful unhood where 672 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 3: you go, I understand, it's that deeper work though, where 673 00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 3: you sit back and go, how do I operate around 674 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 3: this value and really getting to know yourself when that 675 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 3: is that feels true of you and close to your wine, 676 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 3: close to your purpose, and then kind of matching it 677 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 3: into any choice point that happens becomes really really easy 678 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 3: to do. It's interesting too for that example with the 679 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 3: outside in the environment and you you know, have grown 680 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:32,360 Speaker 3: up in environments socially or just the culture, the Irishman 681 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 3: culture like you. 682 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 2: Know, which was then, and then double down on being 683 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:38,320 Speaker 2: in the military. 684 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 3: Right yeah, so, And it's just it's so interesting all 685 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:45,839 Speaker 3: the things I've talked about perfectly exit. We could pull 686 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,399 Speaker 3: apart so many things on that one little choice point 687 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 3: for you that we. 688 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,440 Speaker 1: Could full cycle analysis of me. 689 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,839 Speaker 2: Right now, I'll just lie down on the table and 690 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 2: you can cle. 691 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 3: All the hard things about the dopamine and we'll give 692 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 3: some people some hope about that at the end around 693 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 3: exercise and dopamine. But I think the other really interesting thing, 694 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 3: and one that I love to bring into the education 695 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 3: point for people is the good old I've got the 696 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,279 Speaker 3: book here. I'm never sure if i'd not say his 697 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:20,840 Speaker 3: name properly. Daniel Carnaman. 698 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:25,080 Speaker 1: Oh, yes, I've got it on the bookshelf. Be Homie. 699 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:29,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, first brain, second brain. And then the lovely Zoe Chance, 700 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 3: who's she's got amazing resources. I can't think of the 701 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:36,320 Speaker 3: name of a book, which I feel silly about the moment. 702 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:40,800 Speaker 3: But she refined those two ideas to the gator brain 703 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:44,319 Speaker 3: and the judge, and I think those two things are 704 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 3: also helpful to people to understand about the choice point 705 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,840 Speaker 3: as well. And the gator being the alligator, the primal 706 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 3: part of our brain versus the judge being the rational thinker. 707 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:57,719 Speaker 3: And when we're operating well and we can do that 708 00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 3: choice point in a moment, it's usually because we've got 709 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:06,800 Speaker 3: enough going on between our alligator brain, our reflexive primal brain, 710 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 3: and our judge that we can kind of too and 711 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 3: fro and go, oh, yes, but that's not a great 712 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:15,360 Speaker 3: idea because you're close to authenticity, and then the gata 713 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 3: being able to sit down and go no, of course, yep, 714 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 3: let's not have the wine at this moment. Versus when 715 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 3: it's really really hard for us to access the judge 716 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 3: and think rationally and get closer to our purposeful, more authentic, 717 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 3: value driven version of ourself is because we live a 718 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:42,120 Speaker 3: life of urgency. We overwhelm ourselves with things, and that's 719 00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 3: hard for the judge to be part of that conversation. 720 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:50,319 Speaker 3: When the gator has a sense of urgency, is fatigued 721 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 3: from a massive day, it's just harder for us to 722 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,319 Speaker 3: make those decisions. So from a self compassionate act point 723 00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 3: of view, I see this beautiful merging of understanding your anatomy, 724 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 3: understanding your story, and being able to slowly merge and 725 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:10,480 Speaker 3: understand those ideas as a way of creating habit disruption 726 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:13,880 Speaker 3: as well. Wise is hard for me right now, well, 727 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:18,400 Speaker 3: because I've been called home with a rushed experience with 728 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 3: my kids falling off the monkey bars. I've had to 729 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 3: come away from a really important meeting, and I'm feeling 730 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 3: urgency or pull between the two places, and then it's 731 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:33,400 Speaker 3: hard for us to make reasonable decisions. We kind of 732 00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 3: blip out of our what's called our window of tolerance, 733 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 3: and if we're out of that window of tolerance for 734 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 3: too long, it is really hard to make decisions that 735 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 3: are close to our values. And that kind of answers 736 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,279 Speaker 3: to how we make up a whole day, how we 737 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:51,239 Speaker 3: make a decision all the way through the day, how 738 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 3: we allow ourselves to have levels of arousaler and recovery 739 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:56,919 Speaker 3: rather than just working our butt off the whole day 740 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,880 Speaker 3: and then reaching for the coffee at three o'clock or 741 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 3: the sugar being really yeah or the sugar very perfect. 742 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:04,880 Speaker 1: So it's. 743 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:11,400 Speaker 3: We love the idea of being in true understanding of 744 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 3: our physiology and the inside versions of our drivers and 745 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 3: living a little closer to those so that we can 746 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 3: live closer to peak performance, and ironically with that, we 747 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:27,720 Speaker 3: can have a little bit closer to the better decision 748 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 3: making points here and there, because we get an understanding 749 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 3: of when we've pushed too hard, when we need to 750 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 3: pull back, why we're snappy at our partner, and when 751 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 3: you know what it takes for us to pull right 752 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 3: back and apologize. And I think there's peak performance opportunities 753 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:46,719 Speaker 3: in everything that we do, not just in good old exercise. 754 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 2: That's not talk about the interaction between your physical performance, 755 00:43:55,760 --> 00:44:00,240 Speaker 2: physical stay at, physical capabilities, and your mindset. 756 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 3: I think this one for me, breath bridges it a bits. 757 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 3: I don't know why I think of tennis, but I 758 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,319 Speaker 3: always think of tennis when it's set point and you've 759 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 3: got you really need to be able to control your 760 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 3: motor skills, control your composure, your power, you know how 761 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 3: much adrenaline is in your body. But you also have 762 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 3: to have that clarity of mind. So you need to 763 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 3: be turned up in the mind for that laser focus. 764 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:32,120 Speaker 3: But you need to have that composure and control of 765 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 3: all the things you've learned with your body. And this 766 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 3: can pop up, for example, lack. We could have gone 767 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:40,840 Speaker 3: back in time with Paul doing that talk in Canberra. 768 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 3: But we've taken you back fifteen years. You've never done 769 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 3: speaking before, and you know the voice being out of 770 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 3: control itself, the adrenaline, the body, and how exhausted you 771 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 3: would have been by the end of that day compared 772 00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:57,719 Speaker 3: to the skilled, trained speaker that you are now. And 773 00:44:57,760 --> 00:44:59,840 Speaker 3: that if our story is to our point on the 774 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:05,400 Speaker 3: on the choice point, if our stories memories experience of 775 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 3: that moment in time hooks us so far that it 776 00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 3: spits out a heap of Nora adrenaline, It spits out 777 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,960 Speaker 3: a heap of quartersole, the things that are meant to 778 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 3: help us get drive, but it actually creates hyper arousal 779 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:24,840 Speaker 3: in our body. That kind of dismantles our composure. So 780 00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:27,239 Speaker 3: at set point when I'm meant to be accurate with 781 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:30,839 Speaker 3: my bull toss, perfect timing on my power and coordination, 782 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:37,400 Speaker 3: but the fear when I jump forward in my ideas, 783 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 3: in my time machine, my mind, I jump forward into 784 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 3: this idea of actually having lost or won, then that 785 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,480 Speaker 3: takes over control of my body, like I'm moving beyond 786 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:54,879 Speaker 3: the present moment. So I think and breath work can 787 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 3: come into play there. I think for people that practice 788 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 3: and incorporate breathwork and understanding the connections with the mind 789 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 3: and body as not even just sports people, but any 790 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,400 Speaker 3: version of person that can be the tricky meeting you 791 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:11,000 Speaker 3: walk into where you can control your voice and your 792 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:13,799 Speaker 3: composure and your body and not shake as your hand 793 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 3: the piece of paper that you know, these are the 794 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 3: things that start popping up between the mind and body. 795 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 3: And it's interesting too because the majority of the population 796 00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:29,920 Speaker 3: are hyperventilators, so they breathe too much. And I always 797 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 3: it about I think about sitting and the change in 798 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 3: our diaphragm, the ability to breathe expansively us now speaking 799 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,480 Speaker 3: and breathing through our mouth, so we're hyperventilating part of 800 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:46,280 Speaker 3: that process as well, rather than being able to breathe 801 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:49,400 Speaker 3: through our nose, and that if the majority of us 802 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 3: are hype of ventilators, it reduces the amount of CO 803 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 3: two in our body, and CO two is pretty amazing 804 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:03,360 Speaker 3: like this, it gets called a waste product, but it 805 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 3: is part of why we get oxygen to our brain. 806 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:11,080 Speaker 3: It helps you, Yeah, it sits and rides on beside 807 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 3: and it allows oxygen to get into tissues. It's been 808 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 3: proven many times in science before that this is a 809 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:24,280 Speaker 3: strong reason for hypertension in people, and in a hyperventilation moment, 810 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:27,279 Speaker 3: it's needed, right because we need our blood pressure to 811 00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 3: go up to service and exercise effort, all those kinds 812 00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 3: of things. But if we're sitting and we're hyperventilators, this 813 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:40,360 Speaker 3: is this slow cascade to unwell health that is disconnecting 814 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 3: our mind and body, taking us away from interoception and 815 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 3: really can be kind of map back to many many 816 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:52,600 Speaker 3: problems in health that people are dealing with. So that 817 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:56,800 Speaker 3: connection with and we can like we could make ourselves 818 00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 3: have an anxiety attack just by changing our breathing pattern. 819 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:05,800 Speaker 3: So I think the connection between mind and body. Getting 820 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,760 Speaker 3: to understand your story and the physiology behind your story 821 00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 3: how it presents itself can be very well, you know, 822 00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 3: low cost and no cost, you know good old Humman's phrase. 823 00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:21,440 Speaker 3: This idea of understanding how to utilize breath work, to 824 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:26,240 Speaker 3: get that connection, to manage cortisol levels, to be aware 825 00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 3: from an observable point of view, you know how I'm 826 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:32,239 Speaker 3: behaving in one moment of another and how close I 827 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,640 Speaker 3: am to my values. It becomes a real remote control 828 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:37,359 Speaker 3: between the two connections. 829 00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:41,360 Speaker 2: When you say hyperventilating, I just want people to understand. 830 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:46,360 Speaker 2: You don't mean it's just like excessive breathing reate, like 831 00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:53,040 Speaker 2: a higher breathing reate. Not necessarily I'm full blown hyperventilating here. 832 00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, point. 833 00:48:55,520 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 2: So it's just that, and respiratory reate has really very 834 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 2: very interesting connections into both our physical health and our 835 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 2: mental health. And then whether or not you're a naisle 836 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:15,959 Speaker 2: breather or a mouth breather, and whether you're breathing into 837 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 2: your diaphram or your chest, which we tend to do 838 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 2: more chest breathing whenever we're stressed, so it's shallow, we 839 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:26,560 Speaker 2: oft the mouth breathe, we overbreathe, that kind of low 840 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:30,760 Speaker 2: end of hyperventilation, and it breaking changes lots of physiology 841 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 2: inside the body and has an impact on the mind, 842 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 2: I think to your point as well. 843 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:40,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, and when we were talking about before the mammalian brain, 844 00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 3: you know, that reflexive brain, the one that's a little 845 00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:45,359 Speaker 3: bit closer to our stories, all of that kind of thing, 846 00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:48,759 Speaker 3: So we could go deep into a hard story from 847 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 3: our childhood, or that happened the other day. You know, 848 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:53,520 Speaker 3: I said the wrong thing in a meeting, and now 849 00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 3: I'm just playing that over and over again again. That 850 00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:58,759 Speaker 3: idea of getting hooked by a memory and that can 851 00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:03,440 Speaker 3: push us to hyperventilation and our ability to carry that 852 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 3: around with this for five or six days after and 853 00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:09,799 Speaker 3: just constantly nudge us into a mental state that then 854 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:14,040 Speaker 3: will bleed into all of our other choices. That is, 855 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:18,240 Speaker 3: I guess we could call them micro stresses. So again 856 00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:21,880 Speaker 3: that interception comes into play. How am I breathing? What's 857 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:25,640 Speaker 3: on my mind? And how much is it required for 858 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:27,839 Speaker 3: what I'm doing now? You know? Is the breath rate 859 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,279 Speaker 3: that I'm doing actually helping me? Do I need an 860 00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:32,960 Speaker 3: arousal straight state to be up because I need to 861 00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:35,200 Speaker 3: get ready for an important meeting and get my brain 862 00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:38,799 Speaker 3: in gear. Or is it more of an anxious experience 863 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 3: that's pulling me away from my composure. So yeah, it 864 00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 3: kind of feeds into that interception part of our conversation again. 865 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 1: So what do you encourage? 866 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:52,200 Speaker 2: What type of breathing to you encourage people to do 867 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:55,239 Speaker 2: to dine regulate their arisal. 868 00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:58,879 Speaker 3: I think the easiest one for people to do would 869 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:02,240 Speaker 3: be the one that's sort of more closely connects breath 870 00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:05,240 Speaker 3: and heart rate at the same time, And it varies 871 00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:08,800 Speaker 3: depend on your heightened things, but on average, it's a 872 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:12,560 Speaker 3: five second breath in and a five second breath out 873 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 3: and giving yourself at least two minutes a day to 874 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 3: just pause and do that, ideally through the nose. If 875 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:21,439 Speaker 3: there's no issues with breathing through the nose, because we've 876 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:25,680 Speaker 3: got nitric oxide receptor's high high volume in there, and 877 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:31,040 Speaker 3: those that chemical in our body connects us to more 878 00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:35,560 Speaker 3: the power sympathetic, the slowing down version of responses that 879 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:39,440 Speaker 3: we get in our system at a biochemical level, the 880 00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:46,759 Speaker 3: physiological side, the inhale at the top YEP and the 881 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:50,919 Speaker 3: controlled exhalees really helpful. But I think the other thing 882 00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:54,799 Speaker 3: that's really fantastic is just being aware of breathing through 883 00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:59,200 Speaker 3: your nose more often, and that when you're going about things, 884 00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:04,560 Speaker 3: if you can make the effort to notice how you're breathing. 885 00:52:04,719 --> 00:52:07,640 Speaker 3: So you're jumping up, you're heading down the stairs after 886 00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:09,480 Speaker 3: being at your computer for a few hours, and you're 887 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:13,480 Speaker 3: going out to get some sunlight, but you notice that 888 00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:16,239 Speaker 3: you're breathing out of your mouth. Can I breathe through 889 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 3: my nose? Yes? Is there any reason to breathe through mouth? No? 890 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:22,759 Speaker 3: Then breathe through your nose, And you can even use 891 00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:26,440 Speaker 3: a gearing system. So while you're sitting there quietly, Paul, 892 00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:29,719 Speaker 3: you'll be using what we call gear two and listeners. 893 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:33,040 Speaker 3: Paul's mouth is closed, so he's clearly breathing through his nose. 894 00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:36,560 Speaker 3: So Gear one is just quietly breathing in and out 895 00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 3: through your nose. If you started to move a bit 896 00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:43,080 Speaker 3: more quickly, you could move into gear two, which is 897 00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:44,920 Speaker 3: just a little bit bigger breath through the nose, a 898 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 3: little bit bigger breath out through the nose. But we 899 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:50,600 Speaker 3: can you know, we're doing an effort that allows us 900 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:52,960 Speaker 3: to stay in that gear rather than I'm moving, So 901 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:55,759 Speaker 3: I start breathing out of my mouth. And then as 902 00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 3: we do something more effort, for maybe you're zipping up 903 00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:01,319 Speaker 3: back up the stairs now, maybe there's a need to 904 00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:03,320 Speaker 3: breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth. 905 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:06,000 Speaker 3: And then maybe all of a sudden that you know, 906 00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 3: the elevated doors going, so you run and you know 907 00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:11,160 Speaker 3: you need to breathe in and out through the mouth 908 00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:15,880 Speaker 3: to recover from that effort. But being aware that I've finished, 909 00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:17,520 Speaker 3: I don't have no need to be breathing in and 910 00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:19,839 Speaker 3: out through my mouth now because I'm calmed down from 911 00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 3: that little sprint and then being able to gear back 912 00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 3: down into nasal breathing. So the first one thing to 913 00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:29,520 Speaker 3: do is just be aware of where you're breathing and 914 00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:32,000 Speaker 3: where possible breathe out of your nose. 915 00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:37,200 Speaker 2: I tell you a great little tap on this, because 916 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:42,920 Speaker 2: you'll see from my squashed nose that it's taken a 917 00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 2: bit of abuse so my boxing and I broke it 918 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:49,240 Speaker 2: when I was a kid, and then broke it again 919 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:52,319 Speaker 2: and fractured it, and I've had a deviated septum for years. 920 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:56,719 Speaker 2: It couldn't nose breathe. Then eventually I got it fixed 921 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,520 Speaker 2: and the surgeon asked if if I wanted to pretty 922 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:03,839 Speaker 2: my nose up as well, and I told him to 923 00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:06,400 Speaker 2: piss off, and I said, just fix it so as 924 00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:10,080 Speaker 2: I can breathe through it. But and then being able 925 00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:14,200 Speaker 2: to breathe through my nose, I'm like, wow, this is amazing. 926 00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:17,680 Speaker 2: But you know, the big changing for me was starting 927 00:54:17,719 --> 00:54:22,400 Speaker 2: to mouse tape at night. So I use mouth taping, 928 00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 2: have done for probably the last year and a half 929 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:29,719 Speaker 2: maybe two years, and that Corley loves it because it 930 00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:35,399 Speaker 2: stopped stopping from snoring. But also definitely I felt more 931 00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:37,520 Speaker 2: refreshed when I when I wake up in the morning, 932 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,920 Speaker 2: but have noticed that that has then had a flow 933 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:45,200 Speaker 2: on effect to me then breathing through my nose more 934 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:48,680 Speaker 2: often because I just had a learned behavior from having 935 00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:52,319 Speaker 2: that deviate acceptum that I breathe through my mouth from 936 00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:54,640 Speaker 2: my pretty much my whole life from when I was 937 00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:57,240 Speaker 2: a kid, and then having to. 938 00:54:57,400 --> 00:54:59,240 Speaker 1: Relearn how to breathe. 939 00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:02,040 Speaker 2: It's pretty hard to do when it's not something that 940 00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:06,880 Speaker 2: you're consciously aware of, but spending it ours innate tipped 941 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 2: up forces you into narsal breathing pattern that I have found. 942 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:14,960 Speaker 2: Then often when I become aware of it, I go, oh, actually, 943 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:18,759 Speaker 2: I'm niars breathing though, so I think I think my 944 00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 2: tiping my tipping. Unless you have a dv at, a 945 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 2: taptum or a block nise, then you don't want to 946 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:26,399 Speaker 2: like tip because you're kind of struggle to get off. 947 00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:28,640 Speaker 3: Running out of options. 948 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:32,880 Speaker 2: But just the research that's coming out about the health 949 00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 2: impacts of most tipping at NATE, it's just amazing. And 950 00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:41,520 Speaker 2: for me, the dded bullness is a retraining of habits. 951 00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, the one thing that might not land for people 952 00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:48,160 Speaker 3: that sometimes the jaw is not in the right place 953 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,160 Speaker 3: to mouth tape so some people might do it and 954 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,759 Speaker 3: then it just doesn't feel comfortable, and that's not a 955 00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 3: reason to get rid of it, but go oh, it's 956 00:55:57,080 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 3: a bit of a prompt that something else has to 957 00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:02,919 Speaker 3: happen first, because it is a helpful idea. And here's 958 00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 3: an interesting thing about sleep that's so interesting that you 959 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:09,160 Speaker 3: become more refreshed, so we straighten up the septum and 960 00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:13,640 Speaker 3: then we can breathe more in that really important part 961 00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:18,800 Speaker 3: of sleep, non rem sleep, where our brain cleans itself, 962 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:23,120 Speaker 3: our muscles go through specific repair in the non rem phase, 963 00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 3: we've got some growth hormone going around as well. The 964 00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:32,319 Speaker 3: our heart rate and our breathing rate goes down. Yes, 965 00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:36,279 Speaker 3: so what happens in that part of the process is 966 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:43,040 Speaker 3: that we eliminate less CO two and if we don't 967 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:47,080 Speaker 3: have a great sensitivity to CO two, we've got receptors 968 00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:52,799 Speaker 3: in our amygdala that will promote arousal in non rem 969 00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:59,879 Speaker 3: sleep if we are. If we're not sensitive enough to see, 970 00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 3: which is a version of training that you can do 971 00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:04,239 Speaker 3: and a lot of people do need to do. It's 972 00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 3: kind of associated with hyperventilation breathing as well. And the 973 00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:11,880 Speaker 3: interesting thing about that is for someone that kind of 974 00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:15,400 Speaker 3: mouth tapes and then ends up waking or a concept 975 00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:19,400 Speaker 3: that's possibly happening. There is the amygdala and the CO 976 00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:23,600 Speaker 3: two sensitive receptors around the amygdala. If there's a buildup 977 00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:26,960 Speaker 3: of that and the mouth breather is unable to get 978 00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:30,400 Speaker 3: it off board because there's sensitivity is too low, it 979 00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:35,040 Speaker 3: can interrupt the benefits in non rem sleep or wake 980 00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:37,960 Speaker 3: them up when you know we shouldn't we shouldn't be waking. 981 00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:40,800 Speaker 3: In theory, we go through fragments, but we shouldn't be waking. 982 00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:43,880 Speaker 3: And then even more interesting, this is cool and I 983 00:57:43,920 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 3: think I understand this okay. As in REM sleep, when 984 00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 3: we are tapping into our stories and having dreams, the 985 00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:58,240 Speaker 3: CO two control of breathing goes off and we just 986 00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 3: go to what's called the prebotsing reflex of breathing, which 987 00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 3: is just like times breathing that we get from the 988 00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:12,240 Speaker 3: base of our spinal cord. So our breathing goes into 989 00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 3: a circuit that's controlled through our brain, and then that 990 00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:19,600 Speaker 3: allows us to have our dreams that don't particularly make 991 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:22,840 Speaker 3: sense or they're an old memory, and have these variations 992 00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:25,040 Speaker 3: in CO two without waking us up. 993 00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:29,720 Speaker 2: That's interesting. The other thing that happens in ram sleep. Yes, 994 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,840 Speaker 2: is it's the only time in your life when the 995 00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:36,400 Speaker 2: brion blocks the release of Nora adrenaline from the look 996 00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:42,200 Speaker 2: of Cerelius. And that's why fits totally fits because if 997 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:45,440 Speaker 2: we think about it, and actually, Dutch researchers in twenty 998 00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:51,440 Speaker 2: nineteen showed that you block ramsleep, you create anxiety because 999 00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 2: what they believe now is happening is that during ram 1000 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:58,880 Speaker 2: sleep there's a tremendous amount of activity between the temporal 1001 00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:01,800 Speaker 2: and the front the lobes, and they believe that we're 1002 00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:04,800 Speaker 2: replaying the day's events over and we often do it 1003 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:08,920 Speaker 2: in crazy ways, right, but we're deciding what's important to 1004 00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:12,120 Speaker 2: store as a memory and what we can actually delete. 1005 00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:14,600 Speaker 2: And if we think about it, if we'd had an 1006 00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:19,200 Speaker 2: argument that day and I'm remembering that argument in remsleep, 1007 00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:21,320 Speaker 2: that's going to increase my arousal and it's going to 1008 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:22,040 Speaker 2: wake me up. 1009 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:24,400 Speaker 1: So yeah, exactly. 1010 00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:29,520 Speaker 2: But that's why the Brian shots off Nora adrenaline from 1011 00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:32,240 Speaker 2: that that's the sister chemical of adrenaline released in the 1012 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:35,160 Speaker 2: brain from the look of Curelius. It gets shot down 1013 00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:40,560 Speaker 2: in remsleep. Now when people are highly highly stressed, that 1014 00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:43,600 Speaker 2: that shotdown can get overridden and that's why people wake 1015 00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:45,120 Speaker 2: up in the middle of the night. And I will 1016 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:46,479 Speaker 2: said to people, when you wake up in the middle 1017 00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:48,400 Speaker 2: of night, are you thinking about your best holiday ever? 1018 00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:52,000 Speaker 2: And it's like, no, they're not, They're thinking about stuff 1019 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:54,160 Speaker 2: that's like in the brain goes fucking hell, what are 1020 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 2: you doing in sleep? 1021 00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:55,480 Speaker 1: You need to wake up? 1022 00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:58,880 Speaker 2: And that's because that that that norah adrenaline's leaking back 1023 00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:02,000 Speaker 2: in create it's a risal wakes your ass up. 1024 01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:02,439 Speaker 1: Right. 1025 01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:05,880 Speaker 3: That's really cool, isn't it. They are amazing it easy. 1026 01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:09,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, And just the shit that goes on in our 1027 01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 2: bodies and our minds whenever we're asleep is just it's 1028 01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:16,080 Speaker 2: pretty unbelievable, isn't it. 1029 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 3: It's cool too to think that energetically, there's more going 1030 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:23,840 Speaker 3: on when we're asleep than when we're awake. So it's like, 1031 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:26,840 Speaker 3: let's not burn out during the day. Otherwise sleep has 1032 01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:30,560 Speaker 3: very little chance of doing its best work. Yeah. 1033 01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 2: Absolutely, So when you're working with clients, how important is 1034 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:42,200 Speaker 2: breath control? Do you do that with everybody or is 1035 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:43,280 Speaker 2: it only certain people? 1036 01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:43,920 Speaker 1: Do you have a. 1037 01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:48,320 Speaker 2: Little analysis that you do to see if you want 1038 01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 2: to bring it in or is it a critical part 1039 01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:51,280 Speaker 2: of working with someone. 1040 01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:56,520 Speaker 3: I think for some people they'll be like, no, that's 1041 01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:59,080 Speaker 3: not for me, and I'll just pop a little seed 1042 01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:02,440 Speaker 3: in it. If it's not for you, it can be 1043 01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:07,080 Speaker 3: because it's uncomfortable to slow down, not going to optimize 1044 01:01:07,120 --> 01:01:10,200 Speaker 3: the things that we're trying to do. So at a 1045 01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:12,440 Speaker 3: point or I will to be like, Okay, what's the 1046 01:01:12,560 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 3: smallest version of slowing down that we can do that 1047 01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:19,120 Speaker 3: doesn't particularly relate to breath work? And I was that person. 1048 01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:22,680 Speaker 3: You go to a yoga class and you know, I 1049 01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:24,640 Speaker 3: can't think of the bit where you're late at the 1050 01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:26,760 Speaker 3: end and you're completely still, and you're like, oh, I 1051 01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:32,520 Speaker 3: don't need that just to do And then beautiful a 1052 01:01:32,600 --> 01:01:35,240 Speaker 3: pregnancy taught me this is that because we've go to 1053 01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:37,680 Speaker 3: a pregnant sorry I'll add this story in. We'll go 1054 01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:40,720 Speaker 3: to a pregnancy yoga class and it was a huge 1055 01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:45,840 Speaker 3: class by these really well respected group of people that 1056 01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:49,920 Speaker 3: did it, just walls of pregnant women. It's quite quite funny. 1057 01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:52,320 Speaker 3: And then when you come in and you're not as pregnant, 1058 01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:53,640 Speaker 3: you're kind of at the back of the room and 1059 01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:55,320 Speaker 3: the ones that are more pregnant are at the front, 1060 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:57,760 Speaker 3: getting a little bit more assistant, and you come in 1061 01:01:57,840 --> 01:02:01,640 Speaker 3: like an arrogant What's However, at the start, you know, 1062 01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:07,040 Speaker 3: you're still bossing yourself around and you're doing yoga, you're 1063 01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:09,040 Speaker 3: not kind of doing the connection. And then as you 1064 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:13,760 Speaker 3: become more pregnant, you forced with these amazing hormones to 1065 01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:17,920 Speaker 3: get more in connection with your body, and then you 1066 01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:19,960 Speaker 3: get to the you get closer to the front of 1067 01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:22,840 Speaker 3: the room, and then you're kind of more able to 1068 01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:26,120 Speaker 3: check into And for me personally, was a want to 1069 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:28,760 Speaker 3: start to check into the pregnancy a bit more rather 1070 01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 3: than oh, I've got to get my business in the 1071 01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:34,000 Speaker 3: right position and da da da, and then being able 1072 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:37,760 Speaker 3: to slow down. So it was this interesting evolution of 1073 01:02:38,400 --> 01:02:42,600 Speaker 3: learning how good slowing down feels because of this metabolic 1074 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:46,120 Speaker 3: situation going on while you're growing another human, and that 1075 01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 3: really learning the benefit and interceptively feeling the benefit. And 1076 01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:53,280 Speaker 3: then sometimes you know, the baby get moves more while 1077 01:02:53,320 --> 01:02:55,920 Speaker 3: you're slowing down, to having these fun little connections in 1078 01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 3: that way as well. But I learned from that experience 1079 01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 3: that was my first AHA to you don't slow down 1080 01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:05,680 Speaker 3: very well, and you are bullshitting when you talk to 1081 01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:08,840 Speaker 3: other people about slowing down and you actually don't do 1082 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 3: it particularly well. So it's nice because you can have 1083 01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:14,760 Speaker 3: that connection of you, I have trouble as well, But 1084 01:03:14,800 --> 01:03:17,479 Speaker 3: these are the benefits that you get, and then there's 1085 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:20,160 Speaker 3: some that come with I have a stressed life and 1086 01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:22,080 Speaker 3: I want to fix this. So it's you know, it's 1087 01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:26,120 Speaker 3: almost an expected part of it. Sometimes a divergent that 1088 01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:30,120 Speaker 3: they're not used to or expecting is the testing for 1089 01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:34,280 Speaker 3: CO two tolerance and testing for air hunger and kind 1090 01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 3: of weaving that in. 1091 01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:39,040 Speaker 1: How do you do that testing for COE or two 1092 01:03:39,040 --> 01:03:40,440 Speaker 1: to It's pretty easy. 1093 01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:43,440 Speaker 3: People can just test on themselves. You just need a timer. 1094 01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:46,840 Speaker 3: You can do what's called a bolt score, and you 1095 01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:51,240 Speaker 3: just sit comfortably doing just your natural breath in. So 1096 01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:52,680 Speaker 3: you can just do a couple of breath in his 1097 01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:56,280 Speaker 3: breath out and are not bigger, not larger or sort 1098 01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 3: of more in any way, and then just do three 1099 01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:02,640 Speaker 3: breaths that you're focusing on, and at the end of 1100 01:04:02,680 --> 01:04:05,720 Speaker 3: the third breath, you do your exhale just to your 1101 01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:09,200 Speaker 3: normal amount, and then you can pinch your nose or 1102 01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:13,240 Speaker 3: just stop breathing. The presetting breaths will all in and 1103 01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:16,160 Speaker 3: out through the nose. And then you start a timer 1104 01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:20,120 Speaker 3: and then time how long you can hold your breath 1105 01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:24,240 Speaker 3: up into about a score that you would consider a 1106 01:04:24,400 --> 01:04:27,600 Speaker 3: six or seven out of ten need to breathe, and 1107 01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:34,160 Speaker 3: then you stop the timer for anything under twenty five seconds. 1108 01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:38,479 Speaker 3: It's not a true indicator of hyperventilation issues, but when 1109 01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:43,160 Speaker 3: you pop it with it's called a Nijmin score, which 1110 01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:46,120 Speaker 3: is a score of stress. When you pop those two together, 1111 01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:49,080 Speaker 3: you can get a pretty clear indicator of if you're 1112 01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:52,960 Speaker 3: much more likely to be having issues with hyperventilation as 1113 01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:59,600 Speaker 3: a syndrome versus under twenty five just you know, not 1114 01:04:59,720 --> 01:05:02,920 Speaker 3: great tolerance to CO two and all the magic it 1115 01:05:02,960 --> 01:05:05,520 Speaker 3: can create in terms of health benefits in the body, 1116 01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:10,240 Speaker 3: keeping our rousal anxiety states low, and that interception that 1117 01:05:10,280 --> 01:05:13,160 Speaker 3: we're talking about before. And then it's something that you 1118 01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:17,920 Speaker 3: can train to improve. And it's CE or. 1119 01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:21,720 Speaker 2: Two tolerance training I think is hugely important particular people 1120 01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:27,040 Speaker 2: who have anxiety. It can be really really beneficial, whether 1121 01:05:27,080 --> 01:05:30,240 Speaker 2: it's partake or breathing or any other type of seal 1122 01:05:30,320 --> 01:05:35,200 Speaker 2: two tolerance. Yeah, I think can be just really really 1123 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:36,240 Speaker 2: important for people. 1124 01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:41,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's just for me. It's like it's interesting 1125 01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:44,480 Speaker 3: noticing it all understanding it. But my AHA moment was 1126 01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:48,040 Speaker 3: when I was in the pool and I'd been away. 1127 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:50,040 Speaker 3: I hadn't been able to train for a couple of weeks, 1128 01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:53,120 Speaker 3: but I've been really concentrating on my CO two training 1129 01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:56,720 Speaker 3: and it didn't make particular sense in terms of where 1130 01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:59,120 Speaker 3: I was in my menstrual cycle to be feeling so 1131 01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:03,160 Speaker 3: at easy in the pool.
