Our subconscious thoughts sabotage our attempts to live authenically

Michelle Ward, is a Certified Holistic Health Coach, wife and mother of 2 daughters

Michelle focuses on supporting post-empty nest women, adapt to the challenges of rebuilding self after years of putting family first.

The difficulties clients had living their new lifestyles led her to explore the influence that mindset has on our ability to change.

Michelle found that subconscious thoughts control up to 95% of a person’s decisions and often undermine conscious intentions.

In this episode of the Abeceder health and well-being podcast Fit For My Age, Michelle explains to host Michael Millward how our best intentions can be sabotaged by these subconscious thoughts.

Michelle explains the origins of these thoughts, how they can make strange situations feel normal and how they provide us with an excuse for not doing what we really want to.

Michael and Michelle discuss the different ways that people can try to control these thoughts and how these many people successfully change their mindset.

Michelle discusses the ‘elanvital’ approach that she has developed to help people abandon self-sabotaging thoughts and rediscover the vital force of their life.

Crafting positive stories helps us to reshape our beliefs, & experiences to promote positive change & personal growth.

David Robinson, is a mindset coach who uses story work to help people understand how reframing the stories of their life can help them to achieve a more contented life.

In this episode of the Abeceder health and well-being podcast Fit For My Age, David explains to host Michael Millward how the words we use to talk to ourselves create the stories that define how we live.

David describes how in the past he has played with words to change how he perceived an experience to enable him to change his mind set and his actions.

He describes how the different stages of the constructive storytelling process contribute to reframing that story and creating a positive impact.

David and Michael discuss how human beings have the power of free choice, and the choices that humans are preprogrammed to make.

Women know about menopause, but not many men know about Andropause, but they should

Whilst it is debatable how well women understand menopause; most women do at least know something about it.

On the other hand, not many men have heard of andropause, yet it can have an equally debilitating effect on men as menopause has on women.

In this episode of the Abeceder health and wellbeing podcast Fit For My Age married mid-life coaches Claire & James Davis help host Michael Millward to understand the similarities and differences between menopause and andropause.

They explore the symptoms that both men and women will experience and how partners can support each other.

Claire and James share their knowledge of how to minimise those symptoms.
