On your morning commute, long haul flight or when winding down before bed, there’s nothing better than listening to a good podcast. While the iTunes charts are filled with audio episodes on everything from Game of Thrones to sports and dating, it’s the health and wellbeing podcasts we get excited about. Offering encouragement and advice on all things mind, body and fitness related, these are four great wellness podcasts you need to listen to now.
Happiness Podcast, Dr Robert Puff
If you struggle with maintaining a positive mood this podcast will help to brighten dark days. Using practical advice and simple steps, the episodes are only around 15-20 minutes long so you can even fit them in during your lunch break. At the top of both the health and self help podcast charts on iTunes, these bitesize audio clips can really help you to get more happiness out of your life.
Radio Headspace, Headspace
Fans of the book or app of the same name may already know about the mindfulness techniques Headspace teaches. If you’re unfamiliar this podcast hosted by George Okell will fill you in, while discussing the joys of meditation and what it can teach you. There are 59 episodes in this series that range between 4 and 40 minutes long, so the backlog should be enough to keep you satisfied for a while.
No Nonsense Nutrition, No Nonsense
On a diet or wanting to switch up your eating habits? This podcast hosted by two banterous lads explores the questions many of us want to know about nutrition in a relaxed and informal way. If you’re unsure what exactly calories are or how to start bulking, you’ll find this podcast both informative and funny.
Motivate Yourself, Richard Nicholls
Personal development guru Richard Nicholls uses his podcast to help inspire you to be the best version of yourself. His 15-minute episodes target subjects such as creating a positive mental attitude, how to make habits stick and how to let go of the past. They’re great if you need a confidence boost before a big meeting or need a pep talk ahead of a personal conversation you’ve been worrying about.
