Phenomenology
written by: Richard Nicholls
Phenomenology is the psychological and philosophical study of subjective experiences. Basically the only person who knows how you feel is you, and not everyone is aware of that.
Grief & Support
written by: Richard Nicholls
The good news is that supporting someone through grief is far less complicated than the grief itself.

Episode 178: How To Feel Alive
Filed in: Podcast written by: Richard Nicholls
Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.
Or as Albert Einstein once said "He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed."
Today is all about my 5 tips on a more enthusiastic life! That and a massive rant at the end about mental health priorities in government policy making, sorry!

Episode 177: Accept Yourself
Filed in: Podcast written by: Richard Nicholls
Despite New Year being a time associated with making changes, today I want to talk about what seems at first like the opposite of change.
Although it might still be a change, and might even be the best one you could ever make. Because there are surprising benefits that come from accepting yourself as you are, in making the decision to not changing and instead enjoying being you in the first place.

It had been 6 weeks since the funeral.

But, at 57 years old to describe yourself as an orphan seemed odd, hence…

Grandads Gift

I didn't believe him at first, I looked at him on the playground through squinted, suspicious eyes.
"There's no such thing as Santa Claus!" he'd said and laughed at me. Of course, if he was right then I'd been lied to through all of the 9 years of my life.
But I was a clever boy, and I could understand why, if it was true that there was no such thing as Father Christmas, all parents would collude with each other to create this magical present bringing character.
But I didn't want to hear it from the biggest idiot in the class on the last day of term…
