In this episode of Farm Life Psych, host Steph Schmidt, a farmer, psychologist, wife, and mum, delves into the mental load and stress faced by farmers, especially during challenging seasons.
Steph introduces the concept of cognitive defusion to help listeners get some space from their overwhelming thoughts and shares practical tools such as the 'I'm having the thought that' exercise and the leaves on the stream analogy.
The episode also addresses an "Ask Steph" question about staying sober while living alone in rural areas, highlighting the importance of resources like Sober in the Country and techniques like urge surfing.
Steph concludes by encouraging self-care, open communication, and compassion, and invites listeners to subscribe, share, and leave reviews to help spread the word about the podcast.
