Podcasts about nurofen

This week on The KOKO Show we come to your eyes and ears by way of the Central Tablelands in NSW as the fellas finish off our inaugural season of KOKO in Orange. Despite the boys being of weary body and mind, they bound their Northern Hemisphere inflicted wounds, popped a couple Nurofen plus and got back on this bucking bronco of a show to finish the year off in grassroots style. When we started this show, all we wanted to do is help the average Aussie footy fan fall back in love with rugby again, whilst giving back to the OG footy fans in our rural and regional communities. Oh Boy! Let us bloody tell you rugby union is alive and well if northwest NSW is anything to go by and we can't thank The Saltbush Hotel, Orange and the surrounding areas enough for their support of the show in our final episode of season one.In this week's episode we put a pretty little Chrissy bow on what was a whirlwind debut season for Kick Offs and Kick Ons, discussing the year that was 2024 in both the contexts of our show as well as the World Rugby landscape as a whole. The lads breakdown their highs and lows of the year, who and what caught their eye on the field and what 2025 has in store for all of us. We would like to give a big thank you to our headline sponsor MYER for all of their support this year and allowing us to create a show that accurately conveys the light and shade of Australian Rugby. Plus, we would also like to show some love to all of our sponsors throughout 2024 for being vital cogs in the wheel of success that was KOKO 1.0. In a year that has seen us laugh, cry, sit on milk crates and then travel to all corners of the globe, it is you our fans that deserve the final thanks. Without your support week in and week out, we wouldn't be able to put this poor excuse of a podcast together and for that we are eternally grateful. So, for the final time in 2024 lather yourself in baby oil, put on your comfiest lounging around g-banger and let the buttery tones of KOKO take you on a journey. It is time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.TIMECODES 00:00 - Start of the show 01:36 - Introducing the show03:51 - Introducing the boys07:05 - Thanks to the Saltbush Hotel for having us10:56 - Highlights and lowlights of the year17:41 - Favourite guest 21:20 - Budgy Smuggler23:40 - THE WALLABIES YEAR AND AWARDS29:16 - Joe Schmidt's future in Australian Rugby 33:39 - Wallabies five year plan 37:03 - The Lions tour39:12 - SIX NATIONS PREVIEW42:25 - THE ALL BLACKS' YEAR IN 202446:23 - THE SPRINGBOKS' YEAR IN 202448:52 - ARGENTINA'S YEAR IN 2024 54:44 - Match Fit brought to you by MYER 01:03:01 - Drew thanks the fans of the show 01:04:17 - What does KOKO look like in 2025?01:07:53 - Close of the show and season 1 of KOKOBig thanks to MYER for their support and remember you can buy everything you saw on the show from you local MYER or online - https://www.myer.com.auCheers also to BeefEater for coming back on board with KOKO, please check out their websites to see their great selection of BBQ's, rangehoods and fridges.AUSTRALIA - https://www.appliancesonline.com.au/brand/beefeaterEUROPE - https://beefeaterbbqeurope.co.uk/pages/contact-usA massive thanks to our new beer sponsor, Easy Times Brewing Co.

Yay! Other than a crappy cold, a very good week.  Won a Gold Bar with the Guild Of Photographers a couple of days ago which got me to thinking about competitions: why we do them, how to do them and the fear of failure (when in fact, the only failure is to not enter at all!) There are one or two other things to bear in mind and I step through them in the podcast. Enjoy! Cheers P. If you enjoy this podcast, please head over to Mastering Portrait Photography, for more articles and videos about this beautiful industry. You can also read a full transcript of this episode. PLEASE also subscribe and leave us a review - we'd love to hear what you think! If there are any topics, you would like to hear, have questions we could answer or would like to come and be interviewed on the podcast, please contact me at paul@paulwilkinsonphotography.co.uk.  Full Transcript: [00:00:00] I'm really sorry, it's just been one of those weeks. I have spent three days, three whole days at home feeling ill and mostly grumpy. Sorry, I don't take to being poorly particularly well. Whatever Michelle and Sarah had last week. Of course, I inherited it this week. It turns out that the word viral is not a joke. [00:00:25] It's just a cold, really, but it's been quite a horrible one. It hit my chest straight away, and I just felt awful, and if I'm honest, after three days off work this evening is the first time I've really felt sort of compos mentis. I've spent three days sitting in the lounge with the fire on. It's been cozy enough, but I've, I hate being unproductive. [00:00:46] I hate not getting through the lists that I've got to do. I hate the idea that I've wasted three days, but in the end, that had to be done. So as I sit here next to the fire watching back to back episodes of Law Order, I'm Paul, and this is the Mastering Portrait Photography Podcast. [00:01:07] [00:01:20] So I hope you're all feeling a little bit better than me, and in terms of the catch up of the week, well, I can't really say that I've done that much out of the seven days or so. Three of them have been spent laid up doing very little. Obviously, I'm still doing some coding, writing emails, and an awful lot of judging has been flowing through my world. Not this time, not just as a judge or as a chair of judges but also as a contestant. It's been an interesting time. [00:01:47] So, I judged for the FEP this week, the first of the final rounds of their annual image competition. I'm one of the judges on the portrait category. [00:01:58] 647 images, I think, were there to judge. And if you think about that as a volume of judging and all of our, all of the judges. Whether it's for the BIP that I chair for, whether it's for the SWPP, the Societies, whether it's for the Guild, whether it's for the FEP, the World Cup, it doesn't really matter what the judging is. [00:02:19] It takes time and we do it for nothing. Well, I say nothing. We don't do it for nothing, but we do it for free. And so, if you think about all of that, 647 images. If I went at it hell for leather and judged one image per minute with no breaks, that's still basically 11 hours of judging, which is an awful lot when you think about it. [00:02:45] And yet, we put ourselves through it. And I do it because I really enjoy it. I really love the process, I love seeing the images, though there is some disappointment when we're judging and the images haven't come up to standard. But, nonetheless, it's cathartic, it's inspiring, it's very therapeutic, it's quite a rhythmical sort of thing to do. [00:03:04] And I really love it. [00:03:06] On top of that, if that wasn't enough, the results to the BIPP monthlies came out the first BIPP monthly round. So this is a new competition for us. We've set it up to run parallel to the print competition, which opens up in sort of June time and it's judged in September. And they run side by side and they are different beasts. [00:03:27] So the print competition, exactly what it says on the tin. Submit your prints in the category. Best print wins each category. That's it. Very simple to do. The monthlies are not that. The monthlies have been designed. [00:03:41] to reward consistency as much as really high quality inspirational work. With a print competition, you only need to shoot one image, and depending on what everybody else shoots, you could end up with the title of the print image of the year, the portrait print of the year, the wedding print of the year, whatever it is. [00:04:00] With the monthlies, it's been designed not to be quite like that. The monthlies It's about consistency more than it is about that one high scoring image. That's not to say that a high scoring image isn't a thing to be treasured and will get its accolades, but what we've done is design a competition at the BIPP, which is Sorry, the BIPP is the B I P P, the British Institute of Professional Photographers. [00:04:27] So we've designed a competition that runs for 10 months of the year. And we take, for every photographer, the top scoring image of theirs in each category. So it doesn't matter how many images you, you enter, that's irrelevant. Each month, we're going to take, for that photographer and each category they've entered, their top scoring image. [00:04:47] And over seven of the ten months, we're going to accumulate those scores. So you have the opportunity, if you wish, to take three months off. So you have ten months, take three months off if you wish, seven months. So your top seven scores for each category will be accumulated. So your top seven scores in portraits per month. [00:05:09] So in January Portrait. You enter five, we take the top one. February. You enter five in Portraits again, we still take the top one. And that's, that's two of your scores sorted. And the reason we're doing it that way is that each photographer in the BIPP gets one free entry every month. [00:05:28] So you have for free the ability to enter and win the monthly's competition for the year without laying out a single cent. All you have to do is find the time at the end of every month to pop in a high quality competition level image, upload it, put your name in, Bob's your uncle, Fanny's your aunt, off you go, you're done. [00:05:47] And you could win it. [00:05:48] So what amazes me, and there's a point to this story, not only is this how it works, but the point is, why don't more people enter? We had lots of entries, but it's not everybody, and I can never quite get my head around why, if it's free, and you have the opportunity to create some great PR, I'm looking at the PR on Facebook this week, and on various websites and Instagram, and people are really celebrating their success in all of the monthlies, not just the BIPs, and it's brilliant, and that's what it's designed for. It's designed to give photographers the opportunity to have something to celebrate and to share with their clients. This is, in the end, about clients. I think too often in the industry we think about it as being about, it's about photographers, and it's not really. [00:06:31] It's about our clients. And the monthlies create every 30 days or so, the opportunity to share success with your clients and you can do it for free. So why, with the thousands of members do we have, do we not have every photographer entering? [00:06:48] Still can't get my head around that and if you think I don't put my money where my mouth is. [00:06:54] This month, I did enter as I have done for the past year, I entered the Guild Monthlies competition. Obviously, I can't enter the BIPP competition, because I'm chairing the judging. So I entered the Guild, and this month, for the first time since I've been entering it, I got a gold bar, which is nearly the top standard. [00:07:12] It's not the top standard. The top standard is Platinum. But nobody's won a Platinum yet, so I'm happy with that. I got a gold and won an image of the month. Now, that's not the point of this story. It's not really to brag. Though I am really pleased with myself because it's an image I took of I think it's the bass player from the band The Sweet. [00:07:31] He was very cool. He was in our studio. It was just a normal session shot I took for him. all for the band. And I decided to try it, enter it as a competition, and see how we go. I think the point is that I entered. I gave it a go. Now, people get really nervous about entering competitions, and I don't really understand why. [00:07:51] Now, you know my views on this. Competitions are not the best way to hone your skills, because you get no feedback, and even if you produce the best image of your life If your competitor has produced the best image of their life, they may just win. and give you nothing really, no, certainly no winning image to celebrate. [00:08:13] Also, you know, with the judging process, you don't know how you're going to do. Every photographer enters an image thinking they stand a chance. But judging is what it is. We've got to rank all of the images and who knows? Maybe it doesn't do as well as you'd expect. And people take that really personally. [00:08:30] I take it really personally. But the difference is I still do it. I just don't tell anybody I'm doing it. I do it quietly. And the images that succeed, well, I celebrate those and we publish them. And Sarah in particular loves it because it gives her an opportunity to talk to our clients and put out some PR. [00:08:47] And she's been doing that all day since the result came out yesterday, which is fantastic. So, I give it a go, I do it. I don't always do that well, if I'm honest, and judges typically, they, there is a correlation between the judges and success in competitions, but it's nowhere near as marked as you'd think it is. [00:09:08] And you can see this while we're judging. So if I'm chairing a panel of judges, you'll see marks from each judge fluctuate quite widely. So a challenge is triggered when one judge's mark is 10 away from the average decision. So whatever the judges came up with, we take the average, and if one or more of those judges is 10 marks different, we have a challenge. [00:09:29] And we have plenty of challenges, which tells you quite a lot about the fact that every judge has things that they are looking for, and if the image that is in front of them doesn't have it, they won't score it as highly. Equally, if it does have those things, they will score it highly. There is volatility in scoring. [00:09:46] You cannot use print or image competitions. as a measure of you as a person, or you as a business, you as a creative, but when you do win, celebrate it. When you don't win, well, you have to figure out what to do with that. The great thing about a monthly competition is that there is the opportunity for at least a little bit of learning. [00:10:10] because you don't have to wait for a year to try again, you can just wait four weeks. Re enter some more images, keep an eye on what comes back, what gets into the bronze, silver or gold. If you haven't quite made it across the line, what makes it into the the commended, which is what we have at the BIP. I don't know what the other societies do for those things, but everybody has a sort of way of doing it. [00:10:31] So the trick is, celebrate your wins, keep your losses to yourself, and then there's a whole load of pressure removed for you. So It is slightly different in in the monthlies. So, back on, I'm gonna bang on this drum. If you haven't entered into one of the monthlies, into any association you're part of, why not? [00:10:52] What's stopping you? Think about it. What is actually stopping you? It's almost certain, almost certainly rather, a fear of not doing well. Well, I enter them every month, I tell you when I've done well, and I keep it very quiet when I haven't. And I'm still amazed at how few people do it. And with the BIPP, every entry is £5, but you get one entry for free. [00:11:15] And with the BIP, every image is £5 a go. But you get one for free. So that's a value of £5. So if you had entered 10 months of the year, that's £50 worth of free entries. [00:11:27] Who's going to turn down 50 quid over the year? And the value of the opportunity to talk to your clients is priceless. Now you can argue you might not win, and that's true. I don't. But when I do do well, I will share it. When I don't do well, quiet. I just keep it nice and quiet. [00:11:45] So the results came out for the Guild yesterday, so they're on the 21st, and the closing date for the Guild is at the end of the month, so it's a leap year, so it's the 29th of Feb. So I've got about somewhere between 8, 9, 10 days every month between the results to the previous month coming out and the new round to choose what I'm going to put in. [00:12:06] I know I'll keep entering and I know I'll keep learning and I will keep being surprised at what does well and what doesn't even though as a judge and as a chair of judges very often I'm in the position of determining that and even having just judged the portrait group for the FEP, the Federation of European Photographers, I can tell you now when the second round comes back to me in a couple of weeks I lay a bet. The images that come back will not be in the same order as I pick them out. That's life. I'm working with judges from all over Europe, I'm working with people of different tastes, different influences, different things they value in an image. So you can never be certain, but what you can be certain of is if you don't enter it, you ain't gonna win anything. [00:12:48] That's a dead cert. So why would I choose absolute certain failure over anything else? Sorry, you never use the word failure. It's not a failure. Nobody fails. Except when you don't enter. Yes, you do. You fail. You've failed to enter, you've failed to compete, in which case, failure is the only word I have for it. [00:13:07] If you enter and your image isn't successful this time around, there's a million factors to that. You can learn from some, you might not learn as much as you'd like, you can take those images because you have them. And you can show your mentor, or show a friend, or show another photographer, or show someone get a critique. [00:13:21] [00:13:21] So there's just a few things I have spotted over the past week to ten days. with competition images. This is accumulated from what I've seen on the judging side with the BIPP, or the BIPP Monthlies, and what I've seen from the competitor side, so as a judge rather than as a chair, on the FEP. [00:13:41] One, don't over sharpen, particularly when it's an online entry. The screens tend to be quite sharp. They tend to make things look a little bit sharper than perhaps they could be, in my opinion, anyway, maybe it's the screens I've got. So don't over sharpen. No one on any competition I have ever been involved in the judging has ever said they've under sharpened this image. [00:14:06] But every round I will hear someone say, that image is over sharpened. Don't overdo it. Alongside that There's a huge temptation, particularly with the users of Lightroom to use clarity and or detail enhancement. These are still, so there's no such thing as sharpening, it's just localized contrast. [00:14:24] Equally, clarity and detail are variations of the same thing. If you're quite keen on the clarity slider You can see it in the image. It starts to look like it's been heavily processed. For some categories, that's great. For some categories, that will get hugely rewarded. For others, it won't. So have a look at what's done well previously and tune your effects and your clarity and detail to suit that. [00:14:51] Don't blow out your highlights or block up your shadows. What do I mean by that? I don't want ever to see pure white, and that's tricky if you've got, let's say, a grey flat sky, and you've lit someone against what light there is. So get it under control, make sure there's detail in the highlights, and there is detail in the blacks. [00:15:09] And don't think you can cheat by raising up the blacks to be grey. Thinking, well that's right, nothing in the image is now black. If there's no detail in it, we're still going to see that the blacks were blocked up, they've now just become very dark grey, and still blocked up. If there's no detail in there, I would suggest you find an alternative image. [00:15:32] Colour grading. A lot of colour grading knocking around, and there are a thousand colour panels out there at the moment. Be careful, that the colour you're using is part of the story you're trying to tell. Don't just make it desaturated because it's desaturated, or make the shadows a bluey green because you've seen it on a Netflix film. [00:15:50] Tell the story with your colour. If you're going to use colour, tell the story through it. Be careful that you don't just process for processing's sake. It must be part of the storytelling. [00:16:00] If this podcast makes you feel uncomfortable because I'm sounding ill, trust me it's worse for me. I'm sounding ill. Where are we? Next one, number five, look for emotion, and then number six, impact. These two are intertwined. When you look at an image as a judge, we have to react to it. [00:16:20] Judging as a process gets criticised a lot as to why don't we prioritise creativity, emotion, impact, these words. Sort of soft, the soft skills, I suppose, of photography. The truth is, we do. That is the top scoring band. Impact. Bam! Get it in front of us. Work out what it is about the image. [00:16:43] Whether it's the way you've cropped and formed the story, where you've laid out the parts of the puzzle, where you've used colour, the way an expression just connects with you as a viewer, whatever it is. Make it about impact, because as judges, we want to feel something. We want to know that you felt it, too. [00:17:02] Number seven, do not enter the same images everywhere. I kid you not, there's an image I've judged I won't say exactly where, but I've judged it this week that I've seen now four times. Four different competitions, I've seen the same image. I wasn't always the judge. I was a fellow contestant in one. [00:17:22] I was Chair of Judges for two, and Judge for the fourth. I've seen it four times. Well, imagine the lack of impact by seeing it that many times. Now I know, as a contestant, you may not think the same judge is gonna see it every time. But, the truth is, there aren't actually that many judges. Not really. [00:17:45] So there's a lot of cross talk. So you get to see the same images quite a bit, if you're entering them into different competitions. As an extension of that, and this is So the first one's not that easy to avoid if you enter lots of competitions. It would be great if you could, prep a different image from the shoot for each competition, but I know it takes time and it's expensive if you're doing print, but I would still recommend it. [00:18:11] This next one, though, is slightly different. If you shoot images in series, what do I mean by that? If you shoot dogs running and jumping, one dog running and jumping, or you shoot a certain style of child portraiture, or a certain style of I'm talking portraiture in particular, a certain style of female portraiture, I don't know. [00:18:31] Don't put more than one of that style into any round of a competition at one time. Don't put them all in January. The idea that we're going to pick out the highest scoring image, the image we think is best out of your series of five, simply not true, because we judge them in a randomised order, but sequentially. [00:18:51] We get an image, we judge it, we move on to the next image, we move on to the next image. So you have no control over what order we see them in. We have no control over what order we see them in. And the idea that we're going to go to the last image of a set of five, and could you know I've seen all of these? [00:19:05] I think image one was the strongest, I should have given that more, more higher score. That's not how this works. We evaluate each image based on its own merits at that point in time. But if we then see four more of the same image, trust me, the impact on the last image isn't going to be as great, even though they are technically different images. [00:19:26] So what you're doing is you're sacrificing four incredible images to get one through. You have to make a decision over which one to put in. And then, guess what? February? Put another one in. March? Another one. There's no way, it's not a, it's not a thing where we can pick images out, because we have to judge them one after the other, so that every single image stands the same chance of getting the same score. That's why we do it. [00:19:51] And number nine, so another point on the judging, is don't forget to finish your images, each and every one of them, fully. So there's an image during the recent judging I did, stunning. I looked at it on the screen, small, beautiful. Hit the 100 percent button, zoomed into the pixels, moved around the image, because when you're doing online judging, this is how it works, and you could see that the photographer, it looked like, I don't know, their nan had called round midway through them doing the retouch. [00:20:23] And they just never went back to that image. They submitted it with holes in the background and gaps where They'd dropped a background in over the top of the subject, and you could see the overlaps so clearly. They were just hard, like they'd hit it with the pencil tool, not the brush tool. And it clearly, all they'd done is not gone back over the image with a fine tooth comb. [00:20:43] It really, it felt like, they're sitting there doing this beautiful retouch. It's a beautiful lady, she's got flowing hair, the background's nailed. She's resting on a bench, or whatever it was. And then bing bong. Mom's here. Mom. It's your mom, Paul. It's your mom. Come down. Alright, I'll be down. I'll be down in a minute. [00:21:00] No, now. All right, I'll come down now. And that was the end of it. It's as if I went back to the image and just never picked it up again. I must have hit send or something. This is not my image, by the way. I really felt for the creator of it, because it was a stunning image. And I even put, it's one of the rare times I've put in the comments field when I'm judging. [00:21:18] If the judge is surprised at why I've classed this as not competition standard, when clearly it's stunning. Clearly the photographer knows their craft. Please get them to look at it like I did and see the holes they've left in the retouch. So finish them properly. [00:21:37] So don't do that. So those are the things I've noticed this time round. [00:21:42] And the great thing about entering a competition is it gives you an opportunity to experiment. Experiment in January. If it doesn't work, change the experiment. Or, no, you never change the experiment. [00:21:51] You experiment. That's not how it works. Experiment in January. Change what you try. in February. It's the same experiment. And then March. And then, who knows, by June, you might have got the swing of it. Who knows? What I will say, though, is that this ability every month to have a go, see how you do, celebrate your successes, learn from those that aren't quite so successful, is hugely, hugely powerful. [00:22:16] I still, still don't think competitions are mentoring. They are different beasts. You know my views on that. But there is still something to be learned from. Entering a competition monthly. [00:22:30] And the best way of entering monthlies, or any competition really, is if you are organized. [00:22:35] Then spend time with your images. Print them, hang them up, look at them over time, keep an eye on them. Because if you do that You'll get to see those little niggles, you'll get to appreciate where things could be fine tuned. [00:22:49] On the other hand, if you're like me, and it's all a little bit last second, then just make sure when you do the prep for your client, you're always producing images at sort of competition level. [00:23:01] There is a difference between competition imagery, what we would choose, how we'd finish them, and there is with what we produce for our clients. But for me, that gap isn't that great. I think if you're a fashion photographer, there's almost no gap. If you're, one of the Fearless Wedding Photographers, there's almost no gap. [00:23:19] I think there is for many sectors in the industry though. So just make sure you're prepping your images essentially to competition standard. If that image that I talked about earlier had gone out to a client, the client would have sent it back to me laughing. I'd have had to sort it out. And it did happen to me once. [00:23:33] It wasn't my retouch, but I did see it. It was my image someone on at the time, an assistant had retouched it, and I knew the minute I saw it go out, it's like, that's coming back to me. And I knew because she'd over whitened the floor, and it looked like the object was floating. I don't do that kind of photography very much, but when I do, it has to be right, and it wasn't right, and it's really frustrating. [00:23:57] Do it to the best that you can. Get it to competition standard, or as close as you can, with only just a little additional finishing where required, because that way, I don't need to worry about having tons of time to get it into a competition. The image I entered and got my gold bar was not the one I thought would do well. [00:24:13] I just didn't think necessarily of the set that I entered, it was the strongest image. Turned out the judges felt differently. But it was certainly finished to that level because the band could have been using it on a poster. [00:24:23] So, the same criteria is still applied. [00:24:26] There's no jeopardy in entering. The worst that can happen is that you don't do as well as you'd hope. And that happens to all of us. The gold bar this month? It's the first one I've attained with the guild, and it's just a regular image. It's now out, of course, on social media. [00:24:43] Sarah's celebrating it everywhere. I'm a little slower to get it onto social media. But it gives me an interesting topic to talk about on here. And so the question I suppose you're asking is, how many other images did I enter? I don't know how the other images did, I've only won one gold bar and got it one image of the month. But I can't argue that you can do this anonymously and then, for me, not be anonymous. So I'm not going to tell you how many other images I entered, but it's definitely more than one. And so why not make this, this year, the year you'll give it a shot. If you're part of the BIPP, you've only missed one month, you still have plenty of months ahead of you, there's nine more to go, deadline always at the end of the month, images, image results come out on the 15th, to give you time to reassess and figure out what you're going to enter for the next month. [00:25:31] And you never know what might happen. And if you can do it for free, and this is particularly to the BIPP, if you can do it for free, Then we really, and I mean this, this isn't a figurative thing, you have nothing to lose. It's free. The clue is in the title. And on that happy note, I'm going to dose up on some Lemsip, some Benelin, some Nurofen, and I'm going to call it a night. [00:25:56] Thank you for listening as I sit here in my cosy little lounge to this podcast. As always, head over to masteringportraitphotography.com for lots of articles and stuff, and also it's the spiritual home of this podcast. On top of that Please do leave us a review, tell another photographer or someone you might think would be interested in it about the podcast, leave us some comments wherever you can, and hit subscribe on whatever podcast player you use. [00:26:21] That way, as soon as I get round to releasing an episode, there it is right in your ears before you even know it. Whatever else, as I sip my Lemsip, keep warm and be kind to yourself. Take care.

Po letech, kdy Česko i zbytek Evropy řešily v zimě hlavně covidovou pandemii, poznamenává letošní chladnou sezonu epidemie jiných respiračních nemocí. Ať už se jedná o chřipku, nebo RSV – tedy respirační syncytiální virus.Hostem Ptám se já byl epidemiolog IKEM Petr Smejkal.Třeba v pražské MHD je docela jasně vidět a slyšet, kolik lidí se virům neubránilo. Rýma, kašel, jasné příznaky. A podle Ministerstva zdravotnictví není situace o moc lepší ani v dalších regionech.Zvlášť nebezpečné je to teď pro děti zhruba do dvou let. Hlavně miminka se nedovedou s viry dobře vypořádat. Dětské jednotky intenzivní péče se na řadě míst proto rychle plní. Situaci nepomáhá ani fakt, že je už několik týdnů v podstatě nedostupný Nurofen pro malé pacienty.A dá se předpokládat, že předvánoční večírky a následná vánoční rodinná setkání epidemickou situaci moc nevylepší.Co nás tedy v nejbližších týdnech čeká? A má ještě smysl očkovat se proti chřipce nebo covidu?---Ptám se já. Podcast Seznam Zpráv.

WonderBaba Explains: Fighting Fever This weeks episode covers everything you need to know about fighting fever! Did you know that you don’t always have to treat a fever in kids. Here I explain when you should medicate and when you should just keep a close eye on your child when dealing with a high temperature of childhood fever. The Causes of Fever I discuss the main causes of childhood fever and the warning symptoms to look out for. I also take a little time to explain some of the serious conditions that commonly occur with fever as part of the illness. This supports parents to be knowledgeable and to help them to know what to look for. Obviously, no generic advice is a suitable substitute for individual medical attention but knowledge is power and I hope parents feel a little better informed after listening to this episode. The Treatment of Fever Treating fever when your child is distressed should always be tailored to your own child’s particular circumstances and so I have links down below for the two treatment options I discuss in this episode including patient information leaflets. I also answer the common question ‘Can I give Calpol and Nurofen together?’. There is nothing as good as gut instinct A parent’s gut instinct will usually keep them right! If you are in any doubt about your child’s health or you are seeing any of the warning symptoms as discussed in this episode please seek medical attention. Useful Links: My article all about treating fever is available here! Calpol Infant 120mg/5ml Sugar Free Oral Suspension Patient Information Leaflet.

Andy Lamont, A personal trainer in Sydney Australia with over 20 years of experience in the industry. A former NSW state and Australian bodybuilding champion. In 2012 Andy suffered a severe cervical spine injury which led to him stopping competitive bodybuilding and led the overuse of Nurofen to ease the pain. This use of Nurofen led subsequently to kidney failure. Although feeling tired and not quite right continued to work until he ended up in ICU with extremely high potassium and creatinine levels he was finally placed on dialysis. He has now been on dialysis for 2 1/2 years and continues his training business around his treatment sessions.

Kids get sick, and they run fevers. But as parents, we can be prone to a bit of fever phobia. Many parents believe that if a fever is not treated with medications, there are high risks of serious side effects. This simply is not true! Treating fever in children doesn't have to involve Panadol or Nurofen. In fact, there are a number of natural remedies that are far more gentle and supportive.In this podcast episode I chat about:Health recommendations for managing fevers in different age groups, including:0 - 3 months of age;3 - 12 months of age;12+ months of age;The warning signs to keep an eye on in the 12+-month-old age group to determine if you can monitor the fever at home. The three reasons a fever is beneficial to our kids when they're sick;Why we shouldn't jump straight to the paracetamol & ibuprofen;The risk of febrile convulsions & why the number on the thermometer is not the best indicator if your child's fever is becoming dangerous;What to look out for instead when it comes to febrile convulsions;The child-led approach when it comes to fever;Potential risks and side effects of using paracetamol and ibuprofen;In which I discuss that they are safe to use, but have downsides when it comes to gut issues, skin reactions, additives, and more.  Natural solutions for reducing fever in children which include herbal teas and nutrients are beneficial, plus the benefits of rest.Episode links:Health Direct - Fever In Children InfographicBlog post: Treating Fever in ChildrenBreak the winter sickness cycle and learn how to keep your family healthy this winter.Get access to our on-demand masterclass (to watch at your convenience) 3 SIMPLE Ways To NATURALLY BOOST Your Kids' IMMUNITY to Avoid A Winter Full Of Sickness.

Reckitt Benckiser Group PLC is a British multinational consumer goods company. Formed some 200 years ago it is a stalwart of the FTSE100 and turns over some £14bn (2020). It owns some global powerhouse brands in the health/hygiene/nutrition space, many of which are part of the fabric of UK society - Durex, Dettol, Airwick, Clearasil, Nurofen... In this episode we spend time with Greg Duce, Area Ecommerce Director, Europe, Australia and New Zealand at Reckitt and it's a privileged look behind the brands at the realities of moving direct to consumer, embracing digital and maintaining values. We were struck in chatting with Greg at the focus upon people and skills development, the need to move rapidly yet without losing track of the brand values. Greg articulated with great clarity that the transition to digital-first (without leaving behind the successful, multi-billion legacy) requires the ability to see multiple things at the same time - and to act for now and the future at the same time. Greg talks about the need to "win today and win tomorrow', and how this requires the simultaneous adoption of two competing maxims: the first is the mantra of "fewer, bigger, better" investments (using Reckitt's scale), while at the same time placing "bets everywhere to see what sticks" (because you have to recognise that new competitors are not limited to the legacy competitors). This 'duality' is at the heart of the digital approach - a flexibility of mind and approach that is worthy of a chapter or two by Von Clauswitz or Sun Tzu!  The full transcript is available via https://internetretailing.net/retailcraft-retail-podcasts/retailcraft-retail-podcasts   Run time: 47 minutes INFORMATION: Greg Duce: https://www.linkedin.com/in/greg-duce-1888897/  Jamie Merrick: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamiemerrick/  Ian Jindal: www.linkedin.com/in/ianjindal/  and www.twitter.com/ianjindal    Recorded and engineered at Spiritland Studios, UK.

“They only thing we can do for your mental health is give you the phone number of a service to call once you're released.”   With prisons overcrowded with people suffering from mental health issues, many would assume there would be adequate therapy available. But not only are people denied the treatment that could help stop the cycle or re-offending, the isolation and restrictions in the prison system further exacerbate existing mental health conditions. So how do the incarcerated navigate a system that seems engineered to stop them from getting better?

In today’s episode I chat with Chloe Mackie. Chloe has two children - Sunny (3) and Maya (2 weeks) - and is a midwife with a passion for antenatal care. “I want to empower women with knowledge and education. Ultimately I want to work in Midwife Group Practice or private midwifery because I believe that every woman should have the opportunity to have a known care provider through pregnancy and birth,” she says. Chloe was working at the Gold Coast University Hospital when she and husband, Jason, started trying for a baby. After two years and a few miscarriages, they sought the advice of a fertility specialist who told them they had unexplained infertility. In the months following they did three rounds of intrauterine insemination (IUI) but to no avail. Chloe found the experience to be emotionally taxing so on the fourth month she opted to have a break. She decided to go back to the basics - yoga, acupuncture and improving her holistic health - and she fell pregnant naturally on her next cycle.  “When we were trying to conceive people would often tell me that if I stopped thinking about it, it would happen. That was the hardest thing to hear because you can’t stop thinking about it; every minute of every day you just want a baby. And every time I got my period I’d feel like a failure. Coincidentally though, when I did start thinking about it…thinking about me and my husband and our health…we fell pregnant.” Chloe opted to have a private midwife who would support her throughout the pregnancy, attended her home birth and care for her six week postpartum. Like her mother and her cousin before her Chloe suffered from hyperemesis and was so sick in the first two trimesters that she needed constant care as she was unable to get out of bed by herself. She enlisted the help of her naturopath and acupuncturist and by 30 weeks she improved. She experienced a typical first labour with contractions over three to four afternoons and nights that seemed to stop come morning. After her fourth round of acupuncture in as many days, labour  established quickly and her contractions were strong and steady. She settled in at home where she paced and listened to music and later that evening her midwife arrived and discovered she was 5cm dilated. Not long after her membranes ruptured and there was meconium present which indicates that the baby had done a poo in utero. It’s one of the reasons that a woman must transfer to hospital from home and so Chloe and Jason made their way to Gold Coast University Hospital with their private midwife. On the car journey Chloe noticed increased back pain and when she got to the birthing suite she discovered that baby was posterior with a asynclitism presentation (his head was off to the side). “It’s like trying to push a triangle through a circle,” she says. She opted to have Sterile Water Injections - non-pharmacological pain relief which is administered by two midwives mid-contraction. Ultimately they trick your brain into thinking there’s no localised pain in that area and allows you to remain upright so you can stay active and help rotate your baby into a more optimal birth position. They only last 1-2 hours and they are very painful when they’re administered - like hundreds of bee stings - but the pain only lasts a few minutes. Chloe spent the following hours sumo stomping, walking up and down stairs and practising side-lying releases (you lay on the bed and drop one foot off to the side as someone supports your hips; it changes the diameter of the pelvis and encourages baby into better position). Unfortunately all of Chloe’s work hadn’t encouraged her baby into a better position so she opted for a second round of water injections (not a common occurrence) and went through the motions again. At 7cm she talked to the Obstetrician who was empathetic to her situation and her birth plan. They discussed an emergency cesarean and whilst Chloe accepted that it was a safe option for both her and her baby, she wanted to buy an extra hour of time and opted to have an epidural. Thirty minutes after it was administered she felt the urge to push.   “When my midwife checked me she asked me to put my finger inside to feel my baby. And he was right there! It was a perfect example of an epidural working beautifully. It released my pelvic floor muscles and allowed my baby to come down on his own. We did an hour of passive descent and then I pushed for 15 minutes and he was born!” They went home 6 hours later and Chloe was having excruciating after pains but no increased bleeding. Eighteen hours later she had taken her quota in paracetamol and Nurofen and started developing a fever so they returned to hospital thinking that she may have retained placenta but nothing was found. She was administered IV antibiotics and went home with oral antibiotics but within hours, Chloe declined rapidly.  “The pain was getting worse by the minute and I had this overwhelming feeling that something was very wrong,” she says. “I was slipping in and out of consciousness and I lost control of my bladder so Jason called the ambulance and I was given broad spectrum antibiotics on arrival.” She couldn’t feed Sunny or access donor milk so her best friend came to the hospital to feed him and continued expressing during Chloe’s hospital stay. Chloe was diagnosed with Group A Strep that had colonised in her genital tract and developed into Septicemia. It was a traumatic time but  thanks to fast acting antibiotics, she fully recovered within a few weeks.  When Sunny was two, Chloe had a miscarriage and then fell pregnant the following month. Bracing for the worst of hyperemesis, she enlisted the help of her naturopath and acupuncturist early on and whilst she definitely was sick, it wasn’t nearly as severe as her first pregnancy. At 41 + 1 she went into labour and headed to the hospital shortly afterward so she could settle into her birth space with its dimmed lights, music and birth pool.  Once again the baby was posterior with an asynclitism presentation so Chloe opted for water injections and side-lying release which worked instantly. “I felt her turn and then I slid off the bed and had the sudden urge to bear down. Jason picked me up and put me in the bath and Maya was born 12 minutes later. It was very healing and we really needed that,” she says.  Topics include: Hyperemesis, infertility, posterior, sterile water injections, acupuncture, side-lying release, asynclitism, group a strep, septicemia,

Pain has many faces. But like so many things that we talk about in Universal Man, it can be one of life's greatest teachers. Let's try to understand pain and some of its faces. The masochist is the one who just loves pain almost as an end in itself. That is not the approach we want to take here. Pain, in itself, has no intrinsic value. Instead it is an indicator that you are at a doorway to growing your own self. In particular situations, we come to a crossroads and are required to make a choice. Now almost without exception that choice will lead to some sort of pain. There will be a physical pain, there'll be emotional pain, psychological – in growth there will always be some sort of cost. But it's not just as simple as no pain, no gain. Understanding Pain – Types of pain It is important to understand pain if we are to unmask it's wisdom. We live in this world now where pain avoidance is the norm. People are seeking the instant fix to address any discomfort. We don't want to have any form of discomfort. We've got Panadol, Nurofen. It's just amazing what we've become addicted to. And any level of discomfort, any level of unease or pain is to be avoided. Sadly in schools these days we are encountering more and more what we call the age of entitlement; too many young people feel that they are entitled to growth or achievement without the pain. Now there are different types of pain. There's physical pain around fitness, growing fitness, injury, ill health. The physical sense that your body is either growing to get better or is just unwell and is seeking health. Then there's a physical pain that comes from the unconscious mind when there's an incongruence in yourself. And this is your feelings about what is happening in the world, what is happening right now, and what could happen, what you're hallucinating might actually end up happening in your life. And all these things manifest themselves in proper, physical, felt pain. You might be feeling pain in your neck. Maybe you're tense in your shoulders. And where does that come from? While it's now manifested as a purely physical thing, where it's come from potentially is stress, or anxiety, or worry about something. And so it ends up being like a psychosomatic condition. Your thinking is affecting you physically and your physical self is affecting you psychologically; it can go both ways. The role of pain – a signpost It is important to understand the role that pain plays because it can be such a negative. It can engulf you if you let it get out of control, and it can trap you and hold you back. If you let it go, and go, and go again … if you don't deal with it, it grows. It doesn't stay still. It gets worse over time because if it's something that's emotional that's wrong, and you don't deal with it, the emotion eats away at you and grows as a complex over time. Or if it's physical, you just get more and more injured, and more and more unhealthy. So many people get trapped in that kind of a cycle. It's almost a negative cycle. They see pain as being something that they want to avoid. And the more they avoid it, the more they're in pain, the more they reach for pills, or whatever their form of avoidance is – they end up never facing the pain, never learning from it and becoming a better person because of it. Pain avoidance can lead to all sorts of addiction. One of the main causes that leads people to constant addiction is the pain that they haven't resolved within them, be it physical or emotional. But the way to think about pain is that it's the pathway to growth. It's your compass, so to speak. If you're getting a particular pain you can say, “Well, that's the thing that's going to make me stronger, fitter, healthier. More emotionally connected. More congruent as an individual.” That's the key. When you see pain, it's not an negative. It's a signpost. It's a signpost, and the invitation is to make it your friend. If it's physical, you get your muscle systems, you stretch them, work them – there's pain, when you befriend is you're going to grow in a physical sense. So you are all the time listening, aware, choosing. If you go to the gym, and maybe you're doing some push ups, and you don't do enough, maybe you do 10 pushups but are capable of so much more. You don't get any fitter. No. You just maintain the status quo. So the pain will only come when you get past your personal best or what you're capable of. And that will help you grow, or get fitter, or even stay fit in the moment. Pain is unique to every particular person. Within each sphere of pain; physical, emotional, psychological – what is painful for one may not be for another – what stretches one may not stretch another. The kind of things which challenge us, and stretch us, are going to change from one person to the next. A lot of people have no interest in physical fitness. Greg loves fitness and it has been a part of his life since day one. So for those who are not into physical fitness where the pain and discomfort of that has no interest for them – that is okay as long as you're comfortable with that. So some pains are acceptable to avoid if the consequences aren't dire for you and it is not where you are called to grow. But make sure there is someplace within your life you are being stretched, challenged, etc. And that's the space where you're going to grow. And the actual effect of it – whatever that it is for you – will be where your confidence will grow. For some it will be your physical confidence, others your emotional confidence because you've faced this pain, you've worked your way through it. When you have worked through pain, faced it and learnt from it there is a calmness within you. Pain faced Pain faced leads to greater achievement. Pain engaged leads to results like achieving goals, getting stuff done at work, whatever it is you're trying to do, whatever you aspire to right now. If you're not experiencing some pain on the journey, then you're not likely getting much of a result – certainly not as much as you could. Any journey worthwhile having, there's going to be some headwinds. There's going to be some pain, whether it's physical, or emotional, or relational. There'll be some sort of challenge there. Young people in today's society can learn so much from this. As mentioned earlier there's a big question about that sense of entitlement. Now when we can challenge young people with facing pain, and working hard, there is a resilience there. They can bounce back more. Their bounce back comes faster, and they bounce back stronger. Some of that entitlement comes from the world they grew up in. As soon as you show young people the path through maybe a bit of pain, they accept that and understand it quite quickly. And then they can rise above their old belief systems about entitlement. Pain faced leads to greater self discipline. When you embrace pain you grow in confidence, you are calm and that ability to say no to yourself leads to a deeper you. That ability when the alarm goes at 5:00, and you jump out of bed. And the first time it's hard, and the second time it's hard, the third time is hard, but after a while you just get into a zone. And the alarm goes, and you're gone. So that ability to say no to what your body wants in the moment – because you've got a goal. Discipline. How do we deal with pain? Let's talk about how you deal with pain. We understand what it is. We're going to break this up into two components. One, how do you deal with just physical and understood emotional pain like stress and anxiety. And you know what's causing it. And the other is when you're getting pain, and you don't know what the source is. You don't know if it's physical, or emotional. But something is not right. The first one is around this physical and understood emotional pain. And the very first thing … so this might be something you're stressed or worried about. It might be a sore knee, or an ankle, or something that's wrong with you. Even you're just ill. The first thing is to reframe it, and understand that the way forward is to know that the pain is the path. The obstacle is the way. And if you can overcome that, accept it, and understand it, and grow, you will actually grow as an individual. And when you can understand what the source of the pain is, okay. If I've got too many jobs on my case at the moment, and I'm rushing here, here, here, and I'm getting headaches, I'm tense, okay. Stop. Reflect, okay. I can work out why. What is going on? Most of the time the signals you get in that space are very obvious. You've been working too hard, all of a sudden you've got a flu. And that's partly physical because you've run yourself down. At the end you should have fought internal systems. But maybe it's also completely psychosomatic. You're body's just saying, “Enough is enough.” It could be as simple as you're listening to your own body. And you know if you worked eight nights in a row, whatever the thing is, your body inside's going, “Hey. Stop. Stop. Stop.” How to listen to that pain, your tiredness. Another element of this is grit. The whole concept of grit – Greg talked to one of the great Wallabies of all time, Nathan Sharpe and he said he learned to love and enjoy the hard stuff, the grit. The more you learn to love the stuff away from the spotlight, actually the better you are later anyway. So reframe the pain and while not loving it as an end in itself – love it's challenge and it's path. It is not masochism if you are growing to be a better you because of pain embraced and faced! Over the last so Christmas break, Pricey did the Tongariro Crossing in New Zealand. And it's a 19.7km hike in a single day. But it's up very high, and the day he did it was baking hot. So it was painful. It was uphill and hard going. But that grit, that hard yakka paid off – at the end of the day while tired, exhausted – he felt great. The beer at the end of that day at the local pub was just awesome. The other thing about the physical and emotional pain, there's another element to this which is just having some maintenance. So regularly meditating, staying fit, fasting, not eating for 18 or 24 hours once or twice a week, is a process of understanding, and dealing, and pushing through pain. All those things make you better at it. It's like you get pain fit, so to speak. And that makes you stronger mentally, physically, emotionally. And you really grow as an individual. We've said it over and over again, all of these elements are actually linked. So when you're doing all that, when you are getting into a rhythm of whether it be meditation, a rhythm of fitness, a rhythm of eating in a really good way, that rhythm becomes a beautiful psychosomatic thing. We talk about mental strength! Greg recalls the first time he did a marathon – he thought it was a physical mountain to climb. But then he found out it wasn't physical – it was mental. You learn mental toughness when you're running the last five kilometres of your first marathon. And if you can stay strong at that moment, when all the voices in your head are telling you to stop, that's when you start to learn what you're made of. And as a result of what should have been a purely physical endeavour, he was mentally, emotionally, and physically stronger at the end of it. As we keep on saying this new strength flows over into other things. You could be working on all this, and you're in a conflict situation. And a year or two prior, you would have come out of that stressed, and uptight, and exhausted. Now you're in a conflict situation, you are present to them, to the other and even though it is painful you come out of it feeling free. You've done your work. The second element is that every now and then in life, you're going to have situations where you're having pain. You can't work it out. No treatment, nothing seems to work. You just can't seem to understand it. And this is where we you might have a deeper incongruence. Something isn't right within you, and your unconscious mind is demonstrating physically that it's unhappy. But sometimes it's not entirely clear. And we want to tell a story to demonstrate this. One time Greg had a guy who was working on his team when he used to work in the corporate world. Greg was coaching him to run his first ever marathon. It was about four weeks to marathon day and he started to get a really bad shoulder pain in his left shoulder. As the next week or two went on it got worse, and worse, and worse. He went and saw the top physic at a renowned university but it just didn't get any better. Over a period of two weeks, it got worse, and worse. And Greg said to him, “Hey, listen mate. Can we just spend five minutes? Let me see if we can find out if there's something else at play here that your body is trying to tell you.” So let me rephrase that, “Is there something that your unconscious mind is trying to tell you.” Now we were able to almost thank the pain so to speak, and talk directly to the pain source. And this sounds a bit weird and a bit wacko, but hear me out. What he was able to identify was that there was a positive intention for this pain. It was not purely physical, even though there was nothing about it that seemed emotional or psychological, there was. And he was able to identify the positive intention. And the positive intention was recovery. What was going on in the rest of his life was he was working long hours. He was training a lot, he'd left all of his training to the end. He was a really, really busy guy. And there was no recovery. So what ended up happening was there was therefore an incongruence within his psychology. And it said, “Enough is enough. You're not showing me the end here. I'm going to slow you down. What I'm going to do is give you a bit of a sore shoulder and that will stop you.” He didn't see that. It wasn't immediately apparent in any way, shape, or form. We were able to ask a bit of a question of his unconscious mind. We basically said, “Are there any conditions under which he can do something so the pain goes away?” And the message on the inside he immediately had when we asked this question was, “Book some annual leave.” Luckily we were in the office, and Greg was his boss. So Greg said, “Mate, book the leave right now, and go and book the hotel as well. Make it happen. Book it for the day after,” I think the marathon was on a Saturday, “book it for Sunday, of the following Sunday, and get away. He booked that, and two days later there was no pain. He didn't see another physio. So sometimes in life there's a internal incongruence going on. And the signal that comes from the unconscious mind is purely physical, and it can be hard to understand. The path in that situation is to listen. To stop. And if it's just a physical sitting, and listening, and meditation session. Sitting with a friend. And out of that the wisdom, whatever the body's trying to say to you, will come up. And it will come out of the left field. If you get really stuck on this, go and see someone who maybe has a hypnotherapy background or a psychological background in dealing with this. If you've got something that's seems maybe there might be something more to it, then do that. What this is about is an incongruence. So that's a really important point around when you don't know the source of a major pain issue. (NOTE : Remember, sometimes you can chase a non-physical cause when there isn't one. It is actually a physical problem you just haven't found the root cause yet. The best thing in all cases is to seek professional help – psychological or medical) Ultimately Pain is The Doorway to Growth Ultimately pain is an energy. And sometimes we've just got to kind of channel it. So we're hearing it, we're listening to it, and we just gently channel it into a really positive outcome. In the end pain can make you stronger. But only if you grow with it and overcome it. Otherwise, it doesn't make you stronger. It just makes you a masochist. No pain, no gain in the end. When you actually befriend it, when you reframe it as we've said, it loses its negative effect on you. And you begin to, we wouldn't say actually look forward to it, but you're not scared of it. There's not the anchor chain, the drag, the emotional pull down, the energy loss. It actually turns into a positive and you go, “Okay. This is the signpost. This is the way forward.” As Universal Men we've got to reflect, face and know that pain will be our greatest teacher if we but make the courageous choices – and that pathway is a pathway to something really special.

Episode 7 Self-care. In this weeks episode of love sober the podcast we ask: Self-care. What is it? Is it two Berocca and a Nurofen when you are hung over? Nope… although that's what we used to think. In this Episode we get to grips with reactive and proactive self care and why it's so important to grow your kit and remember the basics. We look at what self-care looks like for us: From bath bombs to self-compassion breaks, chocolate to pranayama breathing and saying NO. Let's unpick this baby and create kick- ass self- care strategies. Mindfulness, flow, play, gratitude, connection, self-compassion, avoiding overwhelm, living like a cat and not letting the inner meanie use self care to make us feel guilty for not doing enough selfcare LOL Sources: Sexy Sobriety: www.sexysobriety.com.au The Science of Happiness: https://www.edx.org/course/the-science-of-happiness The Mindfulness Summit: https://themindfulnesssummit.com Blurt foundation: https://www.blurtitout.org If you would like to support the podcast you can via https://www.patreon.com/join/lovesoberpod You can join us via links below: https://www.lovesober.com https://www.lovesober.com/community-1 https://www.lovesober.com/courses https://www.the-coaching-academy.com/cart/index.asp?uid=1603813594565 #reasonstolovesober #lovesoberpodcast #lovesober #loveyourselfsober #sober #soberlife #hangoverfree #sobriety  #recoverycoach #sobermovement #sobercurious #alcoholfree #recovery #sherecovers  #sobercoach #greyareadrinking #grayareadrinking #mentalhealth #motherhood #wineoclock #sobermums #selfcare #womeninrecovery #sobercommunity
