What You Resist Will Persist

In this weeks episode, Han is joined by Rory Brown. Rory is a health, behaviour, and performance coach and works with clients to determine the limiting beliefs they hold which are preventing calmness, confidence, and freedom.

In this weeks episode, we discuss:

  • Rory's practice of working with clients to achieve their goals, promote beneficial change, and how his work in the fitness industry found him there.

  • Goal setting, the need for a quick fix, and the difficulty in sticking to goals that are externally enforced rather than internally.

  • The importance of discomfort, tolerance, and confidence in facing fear and promoting change.

  • The role of breath work and mindfulness, and the feeling of safety and disconnect in relation to an eating disorder.

  • Rory's personal experience of an eating disorder, and how he transitioned from having an eating disorder to the practice he works in now.

  • The restriction and eating disorder or fear provides, and the realisation of the world outside of an eating disorder.

To find out more about Rory and his practice, you can find him on Instagram @rorythomasbrown or visit https://www.rorybrown.org/.

Please note that this podcast discusses eating disorders, body image, trauma and other mental health-related topics that com individuals may find distressing. Please check in with yourself along the way, and tread lightly.
