  • Episode #009 - Intrusive Thoughts
    Dec 1 2024

    On this episode Seb & Izzy are tackling intrusive thoughts, taking a look into how they might affect our everyday lives and discussing why we get them in the first place. They can be a real pain and usually strike while we're doing something fun or relaxing, especially when you're on holiday or having the trip of a lifetime, but they're more normal than you probably realise.


    Of course, we also have a discussion about pro wrestlers, The Matrix, and Yorkshire farmers in what is the wildest episode of the Slow Thinking Podcast yet! Izzy has another great exercise as well as some great tips in this episode too, and don't forget you can message us on our instagram or email to tell us how you found the exercise or just to share your thoughts with us!
