#11 | An Introduction to Mindfulness

This months episode of Talking 24 is on the subject of mindfulness. A lot of us have probably heard about mindfulness, but in practice, what is it and can it help you? 2020 and 2021 have been significantly changed the COVID-19 pandemic and we know this has presented a lot of issues for people, and one of the most prevalent issues has been poor mental wellbeing. Heightened anxiety, depression, stress and various other factors can affect us at any time of our lives and particularly scary when then they happen for this first time, this is where mindfulness can help.  Aside from mindfulness, we also speak about music, and more specifically, the most relaxing song ever! Guests on the podcast include Breathing Space Coordinator, Tony McLaren, and two mental health nurses, Lisa and Anna.

#9 | Cold Vs Flu - What's the difference?

Cold Vs Flu Every year we see news headlines about an impending flu outbreak, thankfully it's for this seasonal illness to reach pandemic levels, but it is true that yearly outbreaks do kill people. It's also true that we can help to protect ourselves from the risk and we need to get better at recognising the symptoms of this potentially serious viral infection so we can protect ourselves and those around us. A good place to start is understanding the differences between the flu and a cold.  In this episode we'll hear from doctors, nurses and an epidemiologist to help us understand the differences between the cold and flu, and what we can do about either if we're unlucky enough to become unwell. Guests Dr Anna Lamont | Associate Medical Director, NHS 24 John Sandbach | Interim Head of Clinical Systems, NHS 24 Dr Jim McMenamin | Interim Clinical Director, Health Protection Scotland Any questions or feedback?
