In my talks, I cover issues I had to deal with including depression, anxiety and changing my lifestyle. In this video presentation which is a recording of one my talks coupled with photos taken over the years since my heart attack you will get an idea of some of the material I cover in each talk including:
• assessing my lifestyle and making changes
• dealing with stress, exercise and poor diet
• coping with depression and anxiety
• the role of cardiac rehab in my recovery process - turning 'negatives' into 'positives'
• finding a new hobby - in my case getting involved in helping my wife look after injured wildlife and adopting birds
• rediscovering an old hobby, that of photography (some photos included in this video)
• volunteering - becoming involved in spreading the awareness of CVD, Heart Attack and Diabetes in the community including creating bumper stickers and T shirts to help spread the message.
Talk given in September, 2011
Please feel free to share this video with others.
It should be noted that topics can vary from talk to talk depending on circumstances and the time available to me and with this in mind I am listing links to two other talks to provide a better overview of the topics I cover.
