Make Time Your Friend: Build a positive mindset with a little existential psychology (and stoicism)

Panic less, enjoy more - treat time well and it will treat you well.

Humans have a difficult relationship with time. Sometimes just a birthday can lead to spiralling mental health.

Yet time is the medium of existence that gives us all the experiences that make life so great.

Of course, time also ages us and ultimately robs us of everything we ever have and ever loved.

With the right mindset we can enjoy it and use it wisely.

We cover:

• How to think differently about time itself
• Learn how to be less frustrated by things we can't control
• Questions to diagnose your relationship with time
• Experience deeper awareness

Life is short but we can be the pilot of our experiences or dragged along in a rush feeling crushed by the weight of everything.

This episode should help reduce the storm and increase the calm.
