The F**k It Survival Guides are a series of short videos created by John C. Parkin and Gaia Pollini, authors of the bestselling F**k It books.

In each of the eleven videos (averaging 5 minutes each), John & Gaia offer their condensed wisdom and their ‘F**k It’ angle on a subject that many people need help with. These guides offer John & Gaia’s unique and transformative take and the subjects that trouble us the most.

These guides can really help us survive the troubles of modern life.

Damn stress and anxiety. They are (generally) miserable companions on this journey on life.  And many people can’t shake them off, no matter what they try.

Not only do they make us feel miserable (aka ‘stressed’ and ‘anxious’) but they are bad for us.  If there’s one thing that western and eastern medicine agree on, it’s that stress makes you sick.  But you know it anyway – you don’t need a doctor (western or eastern) to tell you that.  You know how you feel when you’re really stressed or anxious (shakey, intestinal trouble, nauseous, etc.).  Underneath, just the extra release of cortisol is wearing you out, ageing you.

And how is it for the people around you, or for your job?
Imagine how different you’d be if you were more relaxed and carefree.

Be Ridiculously Relaxed: The Evening Retreat

Ooohhhh, you'll love this.  Get a cup of tea and put your feet up and listen to this in front of the fire.
A lot of people go back and back to this one recording to get their fix of Being Ridiculously Relaxed.
This one recording will allow you to touch serious relaxation and bring that into your life.

The Science Of Relaxation 101

A fundamental part of the monthly membership I run ('F**k It Revolution', open to new members roughly once a year) is the 'WHY' of doing the things we do.  And the big 'why' around relaxation is very important to understand.  Why the heck should I take relaxation in my life seriously?  Well, here's some of the answer: 24 minutes of me summarising the science behind stress and relaxation, and why it REALLY MATTERS.

"Beep" it, It Doesn't Matter So Much movie by John C Parkin

This is one of my favourite F**k It things I've done.  It's me reading my short 'F**k It, It Doesn't Matter So Much' book over a lovely animated film to music that I composed and recorded.
In just 15 minutes of this immersive experience, you'll have a deep and full realisation that most things don't matter so much after all (and that is VERY VERY relaxing).

The Emergency Relaxation Video

A 3 minute video of me sitting in the woods of The Hill That Breathes in Italy taking you through this special Emergency Relaxation.
No grey hair in this one, but plenty of relaxation  :-)

All packed up neatly in one Ridiculously Relaxing Bundle.

This eCourse has, up until recently, only been available to those who’d been on a F**k It retreat with Gaia .

And their feedback was that it provided a new and unique way to take the learning from the retreat out into their lives, and to deepen that learning in its application.

Every day (for 21 days), you will receive a recording from Gaia (each one is around 20 minutes).  So it’s manageable to keep up with no matter how busy you are.

Being Me not the Adapted Me course

At the heart of Gaia’s ‘Being Me Therapy’ is a powerful idea:
that we can resolve many of our problems by being more ourselves.
It sounds simple (and rather attractive). And it can be simple.
But, given that most people don’t know when they’re operating from Adaptive Behaviours, one of the first steps is to get to know what they look like, and where they’re coming from.
And that’s what this course is all about. You’ll learn, in depth, the five Adaptive Mechanisms, and what a journey it will:
aided by the wonderful animated videos (audio by Gaia and animations by Anne Van Den Berg).
Or you can read each lesson from the e-book chapters.
Or listen to the audios.
Whatever you fancy. Whatever suits you.
Which is kind of appropriate: doing what suits you as learn to be more you, not the adapted you.
