There are many podcasts that provide quick and accessible wellbeing advice, but it can be hard to know which to start with. Here are a few of the best.

In recent years, the number of podcasts has increased substantially. There is now a wide range available, meaning there is something for everyone. Arguably the increasing popularity of podcasts lies within the familiar and conversational nature of the medium, often making the listener feel like they are conversing with a friend rather than listening to a pre-recorded discussion.

Thus, with the current concerns over the misuse and disadvantages of technology, it’s useful to consider how we can use podcasts to promote personal wellbeing and happiness.

1) Fearne Cotton : Happy Place

‘Happy Place’ found immediate success when it was launched in 2018 by Fearne Cotton and it’s easy to see why. The weekly episodes - with different guests interviewed each time - explore a variety of issues surrounding happiness and wellbeing. The friendly, warm, down-to-earth episodes leave you with a renewed sense of calm and reason.

In particular, I would recommend Fearne’s interview with Russell Brand for a topical, and very honest, view of addiction and social media.
