Let me know in the comments!WHO AM I?I'm your host, Eve Menezes Cunningham, author of 365 Ways to Feel Better: Self-care Ideas for Embodied Wellbeing and Editor-in-Chief of the Irish Journal of Counselling and Psychotherapy.I'm a trauma therapist (with lived experience), supervisor and Self care coach (integrating yoga therapy, NLP, EFT and crystals as appropriate) helping people connect with and take better care of their Self. Past Chair of BACP Coaching I run Feel Better Every Day with Eve Menezes Cunningham (aka selfcarecoaching.net).I started The Feel Better Every Day Podcast because I realised that even with the focus of my work being self and Self care, I often struggle. And so do so many of my colleagues! We're all human! So I interviewed several of them including neuroscientists, authors writing about health and wellbeing, fitness professionals, therapists, coaches, energy workers and medical professionals.We ALL have gaps and even gulfs between what we would LOVE to be doing for ourselves each day and what we actually do. My hope with each episode is that you'll go easier on yourself and do something rather than nothing from your own ideal self or Self care repertoire. Create a life you don't need to retreat from! Let me know how you get on! I really love hearing from y'all.WANT TO WORK WITH ME?If you’d like to create a life you don't need to retreat from and learn how to befriend and heal your mind, body, heart and soul, join the Extra Embodied (Wellbeing with Eve) community at evemc.substack.com ~ if you're listening later, you'll have instant access to the rich archive of recordings (for paid subscribers) and older posts (for all subscribers) from the time you join.
