The Fertile Mind with Russell Davis

Let go of fear of the unknown

Fear of the unknown can be paralysing. It stops us from being in a creative flow, being expansive and living a life of possibility. In this episode, we explore what is behind it and how we can stop it from contaminating our ability to create a life of possibility.

Follow Your Heart

A Steve Jobs quote came back into my life recently and it really struck a chord. My fear of rejection has been projecting my heart, creating tension in life (and my body) and it stopped me from following my heart. It was the cause of my worry and even my infertility. I unpack this quote and explore how we can follow our hearts more fully and create a life of possibility and purpose.

There is nowhere to get to

If, like me, you find yourself often in a rush and striving to achieve a goal, you may benefit from hearing in your heart that there is nowhere to get to. In this episode, I explain how this idea has impacted me and why I need reminding from time to time and how it allows me to be the best version of me to create my goals with more ease and wellbeing. 

You can be right or in a relationship

When I first heard the idea that you can be right or in a relationship it was very sobering. I like to be right! In this episode, we explore how we can create deeper connection in relationships by letting go of the need to be right. 

Are you Superstitious?

Do you worry about this? Do you think things can’t come easily? Are you superstitious? I never considered myself superstitious, but I have come to realise that many people are without realising it. It is disempowering. In this episode, I explain how if you worry, you may be superstitious without knowing it and what you can do to be more empowered. 

Expectations

Expectations are toxic. Do you have expectations of yourself? Of others? Of life? Do you feel others have expectations of you?. These expectations will probably be impacting your wellbeing, happiness and ability to succeed. In this episode we find out what you can do to let them go (whilst still maintaining the standards you want).

What if there is no good/bad/right/wrong?

One from the archive. “There is no good or bad but thinking makes it so” Shakespeare. What if he was correct? How can that be true when we experience so much suffering and challenges in life? Surely murder is wrong? When we begin to grasp the idea that it may be true it can bring an immense sense of freedom, possibility and flow to our minds and bodies.

Getting Unstuck!

Why do we find it hard to break old patterns of thinking and behaviour that we know don’t serve us? Why is it we can feel stuck, which can lead to frustration or disillusionment? In this episode, we find out how we can get unstuck and be more the us we want to be. This enables us to conceive more of what we want in life with more ease and flow.

How to control your state of mind

Why is it that when we are experiencing challenging circumstances, some days feel better than others? In this episode, we explore how to have a better state of mind more often.

Why you can’t trust feelings

We generally pay more attention to our feelings than is helpful, which means our feelings can tend to get in the way of us being who we want to be and creating more of what we want in our lives. In this episode, we explore why we can’t trust our feelings and how we have a more reliable guidance mechanism than feelings.
