Right Up My Podcast
Right Up My Podcast is the podcast for those seeking the lesser-known (and occasionally bonkers) methods of self-care, self-love and ways to make you feel good.
Hosted by voice artist and presenter Gwen Watson and journalist and producer Kate White, Right Up My Podcast came from a mutual obsession with psychology and finding new ways to improve our own mental health, taking self-help off the bookshelf and into the real world.
Each episode we chat to a different expert about their feel-good forte, from laughter yoga to tantric massage; rituals and spells to microdosing; the joy of play to the art of sleep; breathwork to deep work and much much more.
Then we try it out for ourselves to see if it works... or if it doesn't.
It's frank, funny and honest, with the odd bit of over-sharing. So join us on Right Up My Podcast, because you deserve to feel good too!
Released fortnightly. Contains bad language and inappropriate laughter.

Right Up My Podcast
Ep.56 - Ice Baths: How cold water immersion can help with anxiety | Jen Bailey-Hobbs
Join us as we learn about the benefits of cold water therapy combined with breathwork, with Jen Bailey-Hobbs at the beautiful Seedlings Retreats in West Wales.
Jen expertly guides Gwen and Kate through their first ice bath experience. And it just so happens that they had their mics switched on… so brace yourself for splashes, a lot of huffing and puffing, and the occasional squeal. Jen then sets listeners a challenge that they can do in the comfort (or not!) of their own homes.
Jen is an international breathwork instructor, cold water therapist, restorative yin yoga teacher and reiki master.
