The Fertile Mind with Russell Davis

Why affirmations don't work!

This week we are diving into the archive from Jan 22. One of the most popular but contraversial episodes!

Affirmations can be very popular in the world of personal development. Let's face it, they don't work! It ends up being a battle between old thougths and new thoughts. Trying to pursuade yourself of something you don't fully believe. In this episode we unpack why they don't work, why they can actually make things worse, and what to do instead! 

Self Criticism v Self Love

Can you be hard on yourself? We all know it doesn't really serve us and most people could benefit from more self love. In this episode we explore how we can move from self criticism to self love which brings more ease, peace and flow. 

Are you all in?

Are you all in? This may seem like a silly question when often personal development  can become all consuming. Whether it's the career, baby or learning to have less stress. Project Baby definitely took over our lives. What if part of you is not all in?  Can you be all in and for it not to be all-consuming? I believe you can. In this episode we explore what does all in really means.

Is love all you need?

The Beeltes famously sang 'all you need is love'. I sign of my emails 'Loving You, Russell' regardless of who it is going to, whether a CEO or colleague. It recently lost me a client. So why do I do it? In his episode I explore that I believe to be the core to what you want create in your life, whether a baby, more happiness, less stress or the promotion. Love. 

How to be more present

Being present is where the magic happens. Where you feel peace, flow, love, connection. It's where you get insights, clarity and perspective. In this episode we explore how to be more present moment to moment. 

How change happens

I don't teach my clients tools and technqiues, I don't believe they bring deep lasting change. I help my clients change their relationship with themselves and life from the inside-out. In this episode we explore what that means and how change really happens. 

How to create more of what you want

In this weeks episode we dive into one of the popular episodes from the archive. Back with new episodes next week!

We are creating all the time. We may not think we are creating what we want in life, but we may not realise we are also creating what we don’t want. In this episode we explore how we are powerful creators, creating all the time whether we realise it or not. The more we see it, the more we can harness the power to create more of what we want. 

Victim v Creator

This week we look at an episode from the archive. Life can often feel unfair or a series of circumstances we have to endure. In this episode we look at how we can feel more empowered and like a creator despite our circumstances and limiting beliefs. 

How to be free from anxiety and worry

I used to think I was a worrier and that it was my personality type. No-one is born a worrier. We learn it. Which is good news as it's not our innat self. In this episode we look at how we can stop worry and anxiety preventing us from being the person we want to be and creating the life we want. 

Insights

We all get the moments of realisation where we see a situation with clarity. In these moments we know whats right for us, particularly in challenging times when we struggle to see the wood from the trees. In this episode we explore how we can have more moments of insights and clarity.
