Comfort Zones and Anxiety

The Richard Nicholls Mental Health Podcast ·

2026/02/06

Send us a text It's no secret that stretching our comfort zone to include more situations is a good idea. But it's called a comfort zone for a reason isnt it? It's comfortable there. So if life is comfortable and the alternative is uncomfortable then we're not going to have a great deal of motivation to make a change. But do we even need to? And if so, how?

Acceptance

The Richard Nicholls Mental Health Podcast ·

2026/01/23

Send us a text People sometimes make the mistake of thinking that accepting reality and moving on from the past makes them weak or naive in some way. So they hold onto their pain. It takes a lot of strength to be the bigger person and say "You know what, the only one this is hurting is me, I'm moving on from that." But it doesn't mean you have to forgive and forget.
