The Mindful Freak-Out with Dr Eric Goodman

Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 6 Episode 12 of People Soup, it's Ross McIntosh here. In this episode I continue my chat with Dr Eric Goodman and we dive into his new book, 'The Mindful Freak-Out - A rescue manual for being at your best when life is at its worst'. The ingredients Eric brings to people soup are a beautiful blend of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Compassion Focussed Therapy (CFT). Eric shares the origin story of the book and presents his accessible and useful quick start guide. We also chat about the fears, blocks and resistances to compassion and you'll find out what the acronym AFGO stands for.For those of you who are new to People Soup - welcome - it's great to have you here - I aim to provide you with ingredients for a better work life from behavioural science and beyond.
