Self Care = Some Fun: Why Play Can Help Relieve Stress with Dr Joanna Fortune
Shownotes
On this award winning podcast we talk about the parts of life stretching us to our limits, the necessary growth and the marks left behind.
Stretch marks don't just happen on our bodies - they happen throughout our lives.
"You are only resilient when your resources to cope outweigh the stress you're coping with."
If you're carrying too much, this episode is for you. host Sinead O'Moore talks with Dr Joanna Fortune about why a bubble bath and a scented candle often don't touch the stress we're under.
They also cover why adults need to play, and how to build up the resources that make us resilient.
Dr Joanna Fortune is an Irish psychotherapist and attachment specialist with over 20 years' experience working with children and families.
She is the author of the 15-Minute Parenting books and Why We Play.

- Date nights and friendship
- The value in regular nervous system regulation, not elaborate trips away
- Why adults forget to play and why feeling safe might be the key to unlocking a lighter state of mind
- Deserving therapy instead of resigning to it
- Burnout and fatigue, and why you're only resilient when your resources outweigh your stress
