VYS0043 | The Reich Stuff - Vayse to Face with Dan Lowe - Show Notes Facing down a huge topic that they have been wanting to talk about on Vayse for years, Hine and Buckley enlist integrative therapist Dan Lowe, to guide them through the massively dense, often confusing and incredibly weird life and work of Wilhem Reich. Dan is massively knowledgeable on the subject and gives fascinating insights on Reich and is patient when Hine and Buckley asking him what can only be frustratingly basic questions: What differentiates Reichian therapy from other types of psychotherapy? What is Orgone Energy? What is emotional armouring? Was there a conspiracy against Reich? Did cloud-busting really work?... and what did Kate Bush actually know about Wilhelm Reich anyway...? (Recorded 29 August 2024) Thanks to Dan for indulging us in asking questions on a subject that we know next to nothing about and thanks as always to Keith for the show notes - give the man a follow: @peakflow.bsky.social Dan Lowe online Dan on Twitter (https://x.com/Orgone1) Dan's Counselling Directory profile (https://www.counselling-directory.org.uk/counsellors/dan-lowe) Hine's Intro Cloudbuster - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloudbuster) Orgone - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orgone) Wilhelm Reich - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilhelm_Reich) Integrative psychotherapy - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrative_psychotherapy) The Life and Ideas of Wilhelm Reich with Dan Lowe - What Magic Is This? podcast (https://podtail.com/en/podcast/what-magic-is-this/the-life-and-ideas-of-wilhelm-reich-with-dan-lowe/) Who Was Wilhelm Reich?

Bringing a much needed calming zen influence to the Vayse Institute of Over Thinking and Catastrophic Worry, Hine and Buckley welcome therapist and former Tibetan Buddhist monk, Roger Jayamanne to the podcast. Roger leads Hine and Buckley through a quest which is thousands of years and many life cycles old as they discuss his life within the tradition of Tibetan Buddhism and what it actually teaches: was the Buddha a real person? Is life just sorrow and suffering? What is the Tao?... and he divulges some of the weirder, reality-defying experiences he has had on his travels including mind reading, a monk's arm stretching to six feet long and a lama summoning a parliament of owls as a spiritual escort to Edinburgh Airport... (recorded 13 November 2023) Thanks to Roger for putting up with our frenzied anxiety and thanks as always to Keith for the show notes.

Online marketing for psychologists and therapistsThe Business of Psychology: Episode 76: Marketing strategies for psychologists and therapists: Three styles of marketing to get more therapy clients or grow your practiceFull show notes for this episode are available at The Business of PsychologyWelcome to today's episode of the Business of Psychology podcast. Today I want to talk to you about directory site profiles, because the state of play is changing in private practice, and while I'm very confident that it will all be okay and the marketing will continue to work (it always has, private practice has always been here and I am absolutely sure it will continue to be here), one change that I've started to notice in the marketing landscape is that it is slightly more difficult for our own websites to rank on Google. If you don't know what I'm on about when I'm talking about ranking on Google, don't worry, we've got an episode on search engine optimization, which will explain that for you, but basically, it's getting a little bit more difficult to get our websites seen.

I'm talking about sites like Psychology Today, Counselling Directory, Find a Therapist, Find a Psychologist; these are sites which are 100% dedicated to search engine optimization, and they've got marketing budgets that support that. Yes, it...

In the early 2000s – post-Britpop – an influx of indie bands emerged, beginning with New York based The Strokes. This paved the way for the Hives, The Vines, The Soundtrack of our Lives, and then a host of British bands – the most popular of all of them, The Libertines, as fronted by Pete Doherty and Carl Barat. Around 2003/4, following Pete and Carl's falling out in relation to drug abuse, Pete formed side project Babyshambles, which took off in its own right. After a turbulent start with drummer Gemma leaving the band, Adam Ficek – previously a musician in the band The White Sport – was brought on board as Babyshambles' drummer. My overriding memory of these early 2000s years was the extent to which drug use and litigious activity by rock stars were getting equal prominence in the press (if not more) as the music itself. While Britpop spread a message of invincibility, togetherness and youth, there seemed to be darker, sinister undertones connected to the drug culture around the 2000s bands which, for me, started to become synonymous with that time and which led to a noticeable isolation, separation and exclusivity within the indie music scene, spilling out into the behaviour and attitudes of the public fan base. I observed this shift acutely while at university when I was working a part-time job in a ticket box office of an indie club in my late teens. I really wondered about this phenomenon and welcomed the opportunity to speak to Adam Ficek of Babyshambles who was in his musical ascendancy around this time. On speaking to Adam, I became fascinated by his trajectory into the psychotherapeutic world after experiences with Babyshambles. I was keen to hear about his own understanding of how his turbulent upbringing led to deep emotional wounds that got re-triggered within the rock music industry climate of the time. We talk about that upbringing, his lifestyle on the road within Babyshambles, his exit from the band and subsequent healing process that led him to a new music journey and academic career in music psychology and psychotherapeutic practice. We also explore Adam's interest in the way sound production affects us emotionally.  Helplines and support listed below (hover over text for hyperlinks).

Guilt and shame go together like Sonic and Tails. Like Mario and Luigi. Like Crash Bandicoot and that floaty Aku Aku mask that gave you extra stuff.The point is, they are closely linked and we talk about them both today.  We go through a number of different types of guilt and how these can affect your behaviour and your social interactions. A really interesting chat today, it's a topic I feel confident in talking about as it runs through me like an irritating coal seam.  In this episode we talk about Gaslighting, so please bear that in mind if this is a trigger for you.  Here are a few links which we used in the episode: [Counselling Directory](https://www.counselling-directory.org.uk/counsellor-articles/understanding-guilt-shame) [Psychology Today](https://www.psychologytoday.com/gb/blog/intense-emotions-and-strong-feelings/201104/shame-concealed-contagious-and-dangerous-emotion) [PsychCentral](https://psychcentral.com/blog/understanding-the-cycle-of-guilt/) As always please feel free to comment via email podcast@thinkinghabits.co.uk or via the socials @thinkinghabits #Keeptalking Simon & Pamela
