Podcast Update #3

[00:00:00] Hey, hello everyone and welcome to Christian Emotional Recovery. I am Rachel Leroy

[00:00:05] And I just wanted to share some updates on the podcast and the platform with you today

[00:00:12] And I'll make it brief. I wanted to just let you know that there are more podcast episodes coming to the platform soon

[00:00:21] And some of those upcoming episodes include episode 13, what is the connection between mirror neurons and childhood trauma

[00:00:29] That one will come in a few weeks and then after that episode 14 types of narcissists and how to spot them

[00:00:36] And that is across over from the YouTube video. And if you haven't check out the YouTube channel

[00:00:42] If you like to get new material more often that's different than what's on the podcast

[00:00:49] You're missing out because there's more original material most of which I do have some crossover episodes

[00:00:56] But most of which is different than what you get on the podcast. It's also free

[00:01:01] So just go check out Christian Emotional Recovery and that is in YouTube

[00:01:06] If you type that in you'll find it, I'll also put a link in the show notes

[00:01:09] And hit the subscribe bell and you'll get a notification for any time

[00:01:13] And you YouTube episode drops. I do also have the podcast on the YouTube channel in its own playlist

[00:01:21] So keep that in mind as well

[00:01:22] But the regular videos are also there. Some of them are my face and some of them are voiceovers with visuals

[00:01:28] So check that out and you can also catch up on some of the older material that I've put in the YouTube channel as well

[00:01:35] I don't think everybody who's on the podcast is in the YouTube channel

[00:01:39] So go check out the YouTube channel if you haven't. That's Christian Emotional Recovery

[00:01:43] And that's on the YouTube channel and you'll also see a link in the show notes of this episode

[00:01:47] This short little blurb

[00:01:48] Now there's some upcoming episodes like I said

[00:01:51] One of them is the types and narcissists how to spot them

[00:01:54] That's a crossover episode

[00:01:56] Another episode that will be coming soon is

[00:01:59] Six types of self care and how they can help your recovery

[00:02:04] And another episode that will be coming out soon is

[00:02:08] One on joy

[00:02:10] It's an episode on joy

[00:02:12] Basically how to

[00:02:16] Embodied

[00:02:16] Authentic joy as a trauma survivor

[00:02:19] How to embody authentic joy as a trauma survivor

[00:02:21] And those are episodes coming up here in the fall

[00:02:24] And I will have a couple more episodes coming out towards the end of the year

[00:02:28] Usually they'll come out about every two weeks

[00:02:31] They'll continue to do that until the end of the year

[00:02:33] I do create a break

[00:02:35] Every couple of months where nothing comes out

[00:02:37] And then I try to alternate that with YouTube videos

[00:02:40] As much as I can

[00:02:41] Now I haven't been able to make as many YouTube's this year

[00:02:44] But I will be trying to create a couple more before the end of the year

[00:02:47] So I can continue to alternate those

[00:02:49] But upcoming YouTube videos should continue to come out as well

[00:02:54] And some of those are the types of narcissists

[00:02:58] And how to spot them which is the YouTube video

[00:03:00] It's the same thing but it's just on the YouTube channel

[00:03:03] And then I will be doing some more voiceovers on topics like trauma triggers

[00:03:10] So stay tuned for some of those

[00:03:12] And we'll have some new

[00:03:14] Material coming out through the fall and into the end of the year

[00:03:18] Okay, so look for that soon

[00:03:20] Also if you would like to get some meditations

[00:03:23] There are some free ones on the YouTube channel

[00:03:27] And that one, the ones that have always been there

[00:03:30] Are the Acorn Technique Meditations

[00:03:32] And you can also purchase those if you'd like to have them

[00:03:35] Any time online or offline

[00:03:37] You can purchase them on the store

[00:03:39] And they're not expensive at all

[00:03:41] I'll put a link to the store in the show notes

[00:03:43] But you can go to the store by going to Rachel Lee Roy

[00:03:47] Dotcom. That's RACHEL

[00:03:50] Dotcom. And they're very cheap

[00:03:53] It's a package of four different versions of the Acorn Meditation

[00:03:56] And I'm coming up with some new meditations

[00:03:59] I've already created one called the Body Scan

[00:04:01] Meditations are more challenging to make than YouTube's

[00:04:05] And then voiceovers

[00:04:07] So it does take some time because I have to have the sound quality perfect

[00:04:11] And if you happen to be on insight timer and are a paying

[00:04:14] Subscribe member there

[00:04:16] You can go ahead and access that Body Scan Meditation

[00:04:19] But I'll be creating some more meditations and selling them in a bundle

[00:04:23] As a package, very affordable price

[00:04:25] In a few weeks on the store is well

[00:04:28] And once that's out, I'll let you know

[00:04:30] So there will be some more meditations available that you've never had before

[00:04:34] On the platform for a very affordable price

[00:04:36] So we're talking like

[00:04:37] 12 or 15 dollars for a bundle of like 3 to 5 of it

[00:04:41] So it's not much at all

[00:04:43] So check that out and I'll let you know when that's available

[00:04:45] And lastly

[00:04:47] I will have an episode coming out towards the end of the year

[00:04:51] About the holidays and coping

[00:04:53] And dealing with family

[00:04:55] Because a lot of us who are trauma survivors or in situations where we

[00:04:59] Maybe we have a strained relationship with our family

[00:05:02] Maybe we're even no contact because of abuse and toxicity

[00:05:05] Maybe we have lost people that we love

[00:05:08] Maybe we're alone

[00:05:10] Maybe it's just very difficult around the holidays

[00:05:13] For different reasons we have mental health issues

[00:05:15] There's a lot of reasons that a lot of people struggle

[00:05:18] Dear in the holidays

[00:05:19] And so there will be an episode upcoming

[00:05:22] Torsy end of year that will be one of the last episodes

[00:05:24] On coping strategies and people in those different scenarios

[00:05:28] How you can cope and how you can take care of yourself

[00:05:32] Dearing the holiday season and continue to glorify God

[00:05:36] While you enjoy the birth of our Savior

[00:05:38] So those are some things that we will be going through

[00:05:41] In the next few weeks also keep in mind that I now have a newsletter

[00:05:45] While I don't put it out every single month

[00:05:48] It comes out about once a month and it gives you updates on the podcast

[00:05:52] New things coming out on the platform

[00:05:54] It gives you free resources

[00:05:55] It reminds you of different resources that are available

[00:05:58] And just the voiceovers like the

[00:06:02] The episodes that are regular podcasts

[00:06:04] As well as the YouTube videos that are coming out

[00:06:06] And it gives you a little more detail about what those are about

[00:06:09] In case you're interested

[00:06:10] So you can check those out as they come out

[00:06:12] But the newsletter you can go to Rachellyroy.com

[00:06:15] And you'll see trauma survivors and if you go in there

[00:06:18] It'll show you a place where you can sign up

[00:06:20] I'll also put all that in the show notes

[00:06:22] But I just wanted to update you on some things that we're coming up in the

[00:06:25] Platform and also reminds you that if you want to get updates

[00:06:29] You can go to the email list

[00:06:31] You can subscribe there

[00:06:32] And you can get free updates

[00:06:34] Or if you go and get the free acorn

[00:06:37] The free acorn infographic

[00:06:39] It's for free and you can sign up that way as well

[00:06:42] There's a way you can get a free resource

[00:06:44] And that will give you that as well

[00:06:46] Keep in mind also that I have courses

[00:06:48] And some of those are mental health type courses

[00:06:52] I have one on gratitude

[00:06:54] It's more for a general audience than Christians per se

[00:06:58] But gratitude is a strong fruit of the spirit

[00:07:02] It's not listed as one of the main ones

[00:07:04] But it is in the Bible enough that it is a fruit of the spirit

[00:07:07] So that's something that can also help you heal trauma as well

[00:07:10] And we talk about that in a future episode

[00:07:12] How you can be grateful and embodied joy

[00:07:15] Without toxic bypassing

[00:07:18] So those are some of the things coming up in the episodes

[00:07:20] And in the platform in the next few weeks

[00:07:23] I hope you'll check them out

[00:07:24] Check out the YouTube channel

[00:08:28] Because I do use some of the time I would be working to do it

[00:08:32] And I'm grateful to do it but I just like you have bills to pay

[00:08:35] And also have expenses that go into the podcast

[00:08:37] But that enables me not only to continue to help other trauma survivors

[00:08:41] Like you

[00:08:42] But to be able to expand the resources

[00:08:44] I'd like to do more meditations both free and paid

[00:08:47] I'd like to continue to do the podcast

[00:08:50] Expand on it by maybe doing a blog

[00:08:52] And also doing other things like courses

[00:08:56] That can help more people

[00:08:57] Thank you so much for listening

[00:08:59] Those are some updates

[00:09:00] And more episodes

[00:09:01] And YouTube's will be dropping soon

[00:09:03] Have a great day
