Dr. Malie Coyne is a clinical psychologist, author, and psychology lecturer.She also sits on the mental health advisory panel for the ‘A Lust for Life’ charity and she released her book,“Love in, Love out: A compassionate approach to parenting your anxious child” this summer.She lives in Galway with her husband Pete, and their two daughters, Jessica who’s 9 and Aimée who’s 7. On Tuesday we sat down to have a conversation and we covered a lot during the chat so instead of releasing one very long episode, I’ve split it. This is the first part and in the second part, coming next week, we’ll look at questions that were sent in by listeners.So we’re about 6 months into life with Covid 19 in Ireland. There was a degree of relaxation of restrictions during the summer but now we’re into the second wave of measures with Dublin and Donegal currently on Level 3 of the government’s 5 Level ‘living with Covid’ plan to tackle the virus over the next 6 months.There is a lot of stress and uncertainty to be felt amongst people, myself included, so I hope this conversation can help you realise that whatever you’re feeling is OK and that you’re not on your own.For more on Malie, go to her website www.drmaliecoyne.ieAs always I love to hear your feedback so if you can take a minute to rate this podcast, leave a little comment (I promise it only takes a minute!) and hit subscribe, I’d be so grateful.Thanks so much for listening.References(check the episode post on my Instagram page for some imagery)https://www.instagram.com/sileseoige/?hl=en* The TED Interview podcast with Elizabeth Gilbert* Lotus of self-care* Self Compassion Breakhttps://centerformsc.org/practice-msc/guided-meditations-and-exercises/* Habit Stackinghttps://www.brianpennie.com/how-to-get-over-that-first-hurdle-when-starting-a-new-habit/* ‘Do you often feel overwhelmed by worry’ by Susi Lodolahttps://www.linkedin.com/pulse/do-you-often-feel-overwhelmed-worry-susi-lodola-miacp
