Man Body Spirit

In episode 4 of the Man Body Spirit podcast I talk to Greg Prasker - a mind, body & spirit coach from New York City - about the rapid growth of interest in ancient practices and ‘alternative’ medicines to counteract the stresses, strains and dis-eases of modern life.In a wide-ranging conversation we discuss modalities such as hypnosis, energy work, and sound healing, and how they can release blockages in our bodies, relieving symptoms such as anxiety, depression and inflammation.Greg opens up about how discovering some of these techniques brought him back from the brink of self destruction and set him on a new path of purpose to help others through his online communities and Men’s groups.We touch upon plant medicines such as Ayahuasca and the many benefits and applications of CBD, before Greg concludes the conversation with a simple yet powerful guided Jin Shin Jyutsu practice, which we can use any time we are feeling an imbalance of emotion.If you’re open minded about ancient wellbeing practices, or frustrated by the ineffectiveness of Western medicine, then give this episode a listen, and check out Greg’s Facebook communities, Man Alive and Wolfpack Ascension, where he regularly holds participatory healing sessions.---Show NotesFind out more about Greg at:Gregprasker.comGreg Prasker on Facebookemail: Iamgregprasker@gregprasker.com Or visit his Facebook communities:Man AliveWolfpack Ascension---If you enjoy the Man Body Spirit podcast, you'll love The Power Up, my weekly curated email magazine packed full of wisdom, habits and practical solutions to supercharge your growth, nurture your mind, power-up your body, and help you enjoy a more conscious, happy and connected life.Sign-up here: http://bit.ly/ThePowerUp

In episode 3 of the Man Body Spirit podcast I talk to Harry de Bont about how we can shift our hardwired, evolutionary fear into more courageous, creative behaviours to thrive in the modern world.This inspiring conversation came at a perfect time for me personally, helping me to bounce back from day job overwhelm to find new motivation and drive for Man Body Spirit.If you, too, are feeling stressed or overwhelmed, and/or you have creative interests that you feel you don’t have the energy for, this could be exactly what you need to hear right now too."Focus on what you’re creating in this world, rather than on something or somebody else that might be a threat to you.""Find meaning in what you do instead of falling in line and just doing what’s on your to-do list."---If you enjoy the Man Body Spirit podcast, you'll love The Power Up, my weekly curated email magazine packed full of wisdom, habits and practical solutions to supercharge your growth, nurture your mind, power-up your body, and help you enjoy a more conscious, happy and connected life.Sign-up here: http://bit.ly/ThePowerUp

In the second episode of the Man Body Spirit podcast we talk to Cooper Thompson, a Coach, Counsellor and academic based in Nurnberg, Germany.In an extremely wide-ranging conversation we ask, 'Who are we as men?'Challenging established notions of masculinity, we discuss vulnerability, love and the power of saying, "I don’t know,” rather than having an answer, or trying to "fix” everything.We discuss how to identify the values you’re willing to stand behind, male consciousness groups, and other ways that men can support each other in modern life.Cooper shares his personal experience of rediscovering his masculinity and personal power after the alienating life change of moving to a foreign country.And he shares his advice for what you can do if you find yourself stuck in a situation with no obvious way out.---If you enjoy the Man Body Spirit podcast, you'll love The Power Up, my weekly curated email magazine packed full of wisdom, habits and practical solutions to supercharge your growth, nurture your mind, power-up your body, and help you enjoy a more conscious, happy and connected life.Sign-up here: http://bit.ly/ThePowerUp
