This month I discovered the new online world of podcasting. Until now I had been completely unaware of the awesome facility to download podcasts to your phones or laptops to listen to the audio files on the go. It’s a little bit of the radio, audio book and an advice site all rolled into one. All you need to do is download the podcast app onto your phone, and ships ahoy you are away. You can download anything from financial advice to dating advice or my favourite, motivational pep talks. So next time you are stuck in a rut and need a good talking to, simply download one. Here are some great podcasts for those new to the online world of podcasting.

Another inspirational podcast, The One You Feed is a series of conversations about creating a life worth living. It explores ideas on the best way to live your life and how to create positive enriching habits that can be sustained for a lifetime. Will you feed your negative side or your positive side today?
7. The Meditation Podcast
Is it me or do you find that everywhere you turn self-help gurus are telling us we should meditate? I downloaded this podcast on a whim and gave meditation a go. The one I tried had a specific focus on being grateful for things in your life. Although I admit I wasn’t able to sit still for twenty minutes (I did some yoga whilst listening) I was strangely at peace after listening to the podcast. I would say this is a must have for someone looking to quiet their mind.
I now love listening to motivational and interesting podcasts; they help me focus on something else whilst facing my long daily commute. They are really great at inspiring me to think differently and approach my day with a new fresh attitude. There are so many podcasts, from learning a new language to comedy sketches, but for me, I simply love to hear uplifting talks. What are your favorites from the world of podcasting, as I would love to give them a go?
