In an enlightening conversation, I sit down with Nick Wignall, a seasoned clinical psychologist, to discuss critical aspects of emotional resilience, stress management, insomnia, and the power of values. We delve into the nuances of emotional intelligence, challenge the conventional wisdom of stress management, and offer practical strategies to enhance mental well-being. What You'll Learn: Emotional Intelligence: Overrated or Misunderstood? Nick argues that while EQ is essential, it's often glamorised and misunderstood. He emphasises the need for emotional resilience over EQ, advocating for a balanced view where emotional fitness—a combination of resilience and fitness—plays a crucial role. Emotional resilience isn't just about understanding emotions; it’s about developing the capability to handle emotional challenges effectively. The Power of Values in Building Emotional Fitness: Nick introduces the concept of “emotional fitness,” akin to physical fitness, where consistent effort and practice lead to growth. The discussion highlights the role of values in guiding behaviour and building resilience. Paul shares personal anecdotes about how tapping into values like authenticity helped him address habits such as reducing alcohol consumption. Both agree that values serve as a compass, providing motivation and direction, especially during challenging times. Rethinking Stress Management: Challenging the notion of stress management, Nick and Paul suggest that instead of merely managing stress, individuals should address underlying stressors. They emphasise viewing stress as a potential growth area rather than something inherently negative. By shifting focus from managing symptoms to addressing roots, individuals can transform stress into a catalyst for development. Insomnia: More Than Just a Sleep Problem: Nick redefines insomnia, not as a sleep disorder, but as an anxiety-based problem. He underscores that insomnia often stems from excessive effort to control sleep, which paradoxically disrupts rest. Instead of intricate sleep rituals, the focus should be on reducing anxiety around sleep, adopting practices that encourage relaxation. The Scheduled Worry Practice: A Game Changer for Anxiety: Nick introduces the concept of a daily scheduled worry practice, proposing it as more effective than drugs or therapy for chronic anxiety. By dedicating specific time to acknowledge worries through writing, individuals can minimise their grip on daily life. This method, akin to exposure therapy, trains the brain to face worries head-on, reducing overall anxiety levels. Key Takeaways: Emotional intelligence is meaningful but thrives best when combined with active emotional resilience practices. Values are fundamental, serving as a guiding force in decision-making and personal growth, and are crucial for authentic living. True stress management involves addressing stressors, not just symptoms. This proactive approach transforms stress into an opportunity for growth. Viewing insomnia through the lens of anxiety highlights the importance of relaxation over rigid sleep routines. Scheduled worry practice offers a structured approach to deal with anxiety, promoting resilience and mental clarity.

Emotional fitness is learning how to continue to transform your relationship with uncertainty. The quality of our relationship with uncertainty matters immensely as it is a precursor to all growth. Growth is the perpetual need of the human condition. It is the very fabric of life; without it we cannot progress in who we are becoming and who we need to be to handle life's inevitable challenges and problems. There are 5 key components of emotional fitness, of which all contribute to this all-important relationship to uncertainty. 1. Identity – our self-concept. By having clarity of who we are we can connect with the certainty needed to tackle difficult problems. This certainty is about backing oneself. 2. Life Stages – our journey from ambition to meaning. This is the journey from ego centricity to heart centricity. Focusing on what we can give rather than what we are getting, enables us to create a functional and purposeful meaning when navigating anything difficult. 3. Values – our emotional compass which directs us to realise our deepest desires. A value is an activity we do which brings us joy. Having a joyous activity to look forward to weekly, gives us the strength and energy needed to navigate any form of uncertainty. 4. Emotional flexibility – our emotions do not respond to facts; they respond to our interpretation of the facts. By learning how we create emotion we better manage ourselves through difficult times. 5. Perspective – our bigger picture view of life. Developing a clean and healthy perspective proves very useful to lean on when things get tough.

Emotional fitness is measured by the quality of our relationship with uncertainty. It is a psychological preparedness for the pressures, stresses and challenges our professional and personal lives inevitably bring. Uncertainty is a precursory seed for growth. Growth is a perpetual need of the human condition. In other words, it has been the challenges we have needed to navigate which have given us the most significant growth points. Facing and embracing uncertainty is not only a prerequisite for our growth, but it also prepares us for the next level of our lives. Next level of responsibilities, obligations and skillsets needed to thrive and survive. It is highly likely that the 2005 version of us would struggle to handle the responsibilities, obligations, and skillsets we need to handle our 2024 version of ourselves. Our 2024 version of ourselves may struggle to handle the 2035 responsibilities, obligations and skillsets needed in our lives then. We will need to grow into the 2035 version of ourselves. Uncertainty, in its many forms, will need to be embraced to get there. Therefore, uncertainty is part of the very fabric of life. Without it we cannot grow and keep up with our lives' demands. Our level of emotional fitness is crucial to how well we navigate life's challenges. It is important to realize that we can proactively work on improving our emotional fitness, just like moving and exercising our bodies improves our physical fitness. Here are 5 ways we can improve our emotional fitness. 1. Do something physically hard. Naturally this is very subjective. Do an ice bath, run a marathon, or even participate in your local park run to beat your time (park run is a free 5km fun run held every Saturday morning all year round. Research has continually shown that physical exertion improves our capacity to navigate the psychological pressures life will bring. 2. Practice acceptance. When facing any form of difficulty our life brings, the worse thing we can do is avoid, reject, or try to go around the issue. The sooner we accept and embrace it the sooner we can navigate through it effectively. Carl Jung once said “We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses it.” We can practice acceptance with the little everyday things that may go wrong, for example, a friend cancels a catch up. Practice accepting it immediately without lolling around in disappointment. 3. Practice the art of conscious meaning making. Emotions don't respond to facts. They respond to the meaning we give the facts. Next time you feel a negative or heavy emotion, ask yourself, ‘what meaning have I just given what I have just experienced?' Changing the meaning changes the emotion which in turn changes our experience. 4. Create a clean and healthy perspective. Our mind is all we have. When we get caught up in the dramas of life, has anyone ever said to you something like, ‘you just need to get things into perspective!' When things get tough, we need a clean and healthy big picture view of our situation. In other words, we will need a healthy perspective to lean on. This is created by having a continual connection to gratitude and appreciation. There is always something to appreciate and be grateful for. 5. Simple rituals to set up our day. Rituals create predictability, comfort, and certainty. We all need a base of certainty to effectively operate in the world. This increases our emotional fitness because we will be psychologically in a much better place to handle the pressures or stresses of our day. Our emotional fitness plays a crucial role in maintaining our mental health levels at a functional and resourceful level. By consciously working on improving our emotional fitness we will be much better prepared for when we need to navigate those difficult days, or months. ------------- To register for the Free Masterclass go to www.joepane.com.au

There's a certain consistency and cadence that creates a momentum.. You just put that time and it creates a momentum and then suddenly you get these bigger signs that come." "Mindfulness meditation became my core modality." ".. you transcend that old version of yourself for a moment and you have an opportunity to take a little peek under the curtain into something greater. You feel a joy and a love and a bliss that rises from within that no amount of anything on the outside could possibly create that feeling." "The breath and cold, no cost natures gifts that are right there. The breath is the biggest lever we have on the nervous system. The cold I found was very important in healing my nervous system." "Where you are right now is not where you need to remain." "Every single day, I protect time to go within and connect with myself. It wasn't perfect at first. It took a couple of years to really get that flow. But fast forward to this moment, my day is very ritualistic now. If I don't start my day tech-free with my journal, with my meditation, with my breath work and the cold plunge, the day ends up in a very different place for me." "Mindfulness at the end of the day is just a synonym for awareness. It's a way of being that allows us to be more in the present moment, moment by moment, free of judgment, more kindness, compassion, and just being here and now." "There's an acronym (for) the attitude of mindfulness, COAL: curiosity, openness, accepting what it is, whether it's pleasant or unpleasant equally, and love, self-love, which is the kindness and compassion piece. "The most important thing is by being fully authentic, being in absolute integrity, radical transparency with the good, the bad, all of the things, and truly embodying the lifestyle and the practice." "Ascension just really just means letting go of the fear, the shame, the guilt, opening up the heart space and getting into that feeling of love, appreciation and gratitude. It's a day-to-day moment-by-moment process of overcoming yourself to ascend to another level. " "Awareness is the greatest agent for change. When we start to notice our thinking, the way we're behaving, the way we're feeling - when we start to catch ourselves in those negative thoughts loops we can start to let go of the old story and programming. Get out of our own way as the saying goes and when we do that, we start to connect to that higher sense of wisdom, intuition, truth and beauty."

On this episode of the Run To The Top Podcast we are talking with Andrejs Birjukovs, a certified coach and multisport athlete whose latest book, “The Resilient Athlete”, ultimately argues that the true source of strength for any athlete who values performance and improvement isn't talent, or commitment, or experience - it's resilience.  Under the umbrella of this appreciation for resilient running, I ask Andrejs about: how the hero's journey applies to running how you measure resilience in running why it's not possible to live long-term with a competitive mindset how we can consistently hit flow states in running what emotional fitness looks like the 3 pillars for energy and vitality in running And way more! Tune in for a fascinating conversation about the role that resilience plays in running.
