Habits are the invisible blueprint of our lives, and changing our habits is the only way we can reach our goals long-term. But changing habits can be hard, and many people struggle to create healthier habits and/or break less-than-healthy ones. In our first ever repeat guest interview, habits guru Dr. Gina Cleo shares some powerful insights from the field of neuroscience, and her inspiring personal journey, to help you create healthier habits that last for life. In this vulnerable and at times emotional interview, Gina and I discuss: ✔️ Why habits are important (hint, if you have ANY goal, they are vital!) ✔️ Unpacking a real client story of habit change ✔️ The neuropsychology of habits (a deep dive into dopamine!) ✔️ The most common habits people want to break (and how to break them!) ✔️ How curiosity and mindfulness can rewire our brains ✔️ Gina’s personal story of rewiring her brain to overcome trauma ✔️ The exciting work Gina and I are doing with my online community members!

In this special excerpt from the Thinsanity audiobook, I share the surprising truth about the Body Mass Index, from its unexpected origins to its unethical manipulation by big business to turn a profit. I then explore a re-interpretation of BMI categories based on actual science (not paid-for/company sponsored science), and the possibility that we’re all (finally) ready to be free of it … If you’d like to learn more about the new way forward that we are all ready for that I talk about at the end of the podcast, I’d like to invite you to download a copy of the audiobook for yourself!

Coping with COVID-19 - Webinar with Twelve Month Transformation participants

Research suggests that half of everything we do is habitual. But most attempts to improve our health actually focus on changing behaviours rather than habits, meaning we still need to consciously use effort and willpower in order to continue our improvements into the long-term. Our next guest has identified this huge problem and made it her life’s work to research some amazingly simple ways to create healthy habits that last for life. In this playful and lively interview, Australia’s only full-time habits researcher Dr Gina Cleo and I discuss: - The difference between behaviours and habits. - Setting the record straight on how long it takes to create a habit. - Gina likes variety, Glenn likes routine (and what this means for you!) - You only need motivation to get started (habits keep you going!) - Changing habits WITHOUT a diet or exercise plan (no yo-yo!) - How habit change is NOT sexy, but it IS life-changing. - Creating micro-habits to re-wire the brain’s pathways. - Breaking habits through ‘restructuring’ and ‘reprogramming’. - How to make new habits that are as rewarding as old habits!  Due to a change in direction, Gina no longer supports the Sum Sanos program. Thankfully, she whole-heartedly endorses our new-and-improved Transformation Support Community! Thankfully, Gina has now developed a 12-Week Creating Healthy Habits Series especially for our Transformation Support Community Online Program (available now!).

Dr. Gina Cleo - Creating Healthy Habits

Lyndi Cohen

Do you like the sound of body positivity and intuitive eating, but struggle to make them work for you in real life? Living in a crazy culture of weight obsession makes it pretty hard. But today’s guest has overcome her own personal struggles with food and her body, and made it her life’s mission to help others do the same. In this heartwarming interview, leading non-diet and Today show dietitian Lyndi Cohen and I discuss:  - Lyndi’s personal story of dieting since before age 11. - How Lyndi did the OPPOSITE of what she was taught as a dietitian. - Moving from “control” to “choice”. - The importance of enjoyment (using salad dressing as an example!) - How Lyndi invests in mental health and manages anxiety. - Why Lyndi and I both see psychologists. - Balancing body positivity and the desire to lose weight. - Lyndi’s 20 kilogram weight loss (the part people don’t focus on). - Using your high willpower self to support your low willpower self. - Stamp collecting healthy habits and the power of imperfect action! - The important difference between a meal plan and meal planning. - How-tos and troubleshooting (Q&amp;A from my Facebook Group).  - Creating a health-supportive environment (without restricting). - Dealing with afternoon snacking and overeating when stressed. - Differentiating habit cravings from “want it” cravings. - Lyndi’s advice on “losing stubborn body fat” (client question). - The “building a bridge” metaphor of health change (I love this!) - Lyndi’s advice for dealing with weight comments and body bullies.

Lyndi Cohen – From Shame to Fame - A personal story of non-dieting 

Working on mindset and developing the ability to intuitively eat are so important for cultivating a healthy relationship with food.  But research suggests they are only 50% of the puzzle for people who have deeper issues underlying their eating struggles.  If you are one of these people, resolving these issues can help you completely heal your relationship with food and end binge eating for good. In this goosebump-giving interview world-leading eating disorders and trauma expert, Dr. Julie T. Anné and I discuss: - That a FULL recovery from disordered eating is possible. - The difference between emotional eating, binging, &amp; just poor eating habits. - The underlying psychological reasons why we binge. - How to identify if you’ll benefit from doing “deeper work”. - The three pillars of psychological wellness that protect against binge eating:   - A loving relationship with yourself.   - A healthy relationship with your emotions, &amp;   - Safe supportive personal relationships. - What creates a positive emotional foundation. - How childhood experiences and trauma affect your emotional foundation. - “Reworking history” and developing a new emotional foundation. - How changing yourself creates intergenerational - Practical steps you can take to start working on deeper issues. - What therapy looks like and how to find someone to support you.

Louise Green - Unleash your inner athlete at ANY size!

Welcome to the Glenn Mackintosh Show - A fun EVIDENCE-BASED health psychology podcast where we talk everything eating, exercise, weight &amp; body image! You won’t find weight loss hacks or other fictional tales here! You will find MIND-BENDING interviews, Glenn’s YouTube Q&amp;A Thursday Therapy Podcastified &amp; so much awesome stuff to help you make peace with food, love moving your body, embrace body positivity &amp; generally kill it at life! Subscribe &amp; let Glenn regularly bring YOU stigma-busting therapy! Learn more &amp; get show notes &amp; transcripts at www.weightmanagementpsychology.com.au/podcast

Welcome to the Glenn Mackintosh show, I’m Glenn Mackintosh - a psychologist who is super-interested in eating, physical movement, weight, body image and holistic health in general, I’m talking – physical, mental, emotional, social, existential and even spiritual health. I’m so glad you’ve found me, and soon you’ll soon hear I can talk about this stuff all day, and that’s really where the idea for the podcast came from.  I already had my Q&amp;A video series Thursday Therapy and my blog “52 thoughts for the chronic dieter”, which I’m turning into a book called “Thinsanity”, so even though lots of people were asking for a podcast, I’d sort of put it off for a little while.  But then I found myself having all of these amazing conversations with unbelievably inspiring people – groundbreaking scientists, bestselling book authors, world leaders of important social change movements, and I’m having these conversations and thinking “literally millions of people would benefit from hearing this chat”, so I really wanted to share these talks with you, and wham-o the podcast was born.  It turns out that after doing over a decade of blogging and almost half that of videos, podcasting is already one of my favourite things!  I love it and I’m really looking forward to taking the journey with you. The show is based on interviews with like-minded people who inspire me and who share some of my core values of compassion, science, and innovation – compassion because feeling shame around our challenges is more often the cause of our problems than the cure, evidence because I believe science is the best way we have to understand what’s really going on how to best help people, and innovation because sometimes traditional approaches don’t offer all the answers for us, and even, as in the case of dieting, potentially do more harm than good. We’ll also be sharing parts of my best videos that work in sound-only – there’s just too much awesome stuff in there not to, I’ll share some of the most relevant interviews and presentations I give, and I’m even thinking of some crazy ideas like reading some of my favourite blogs to you, as a lot of people prefer to listen over reading, and even recording some of my hypnotherapy sessions with clients for you to listen to.  As always, I’m really keen to hear what you want, so please be in touch by using the contact form at the longest website in the world www.weightmanagementpsychology.com.au, where you can also find the podcast, or getting in touch on my Instagram and Facebook, both of which are just my name Glenn Mackintosh because - like everything we do in our community - we are co-creating it together, so I’m so excited to be sharing this journey with you, and supporting you to make peace with food, find joy in physical movement, fall in love with your body, and generally just live an awesome, meaningful, healthy, happy, amazing life in the way that is right for you as a unique individual! I’m Glenn Mackintosh, and welcome to my show!
