He's a Buddhist, skater, musician and a vegan (amongst many other things) who's into cold water therapy, meditation and breath work. Bones doesn't drink or take drugs, and won't stand for misogyny, sexism, racism or homophobia in his barbershop. In fact, if he hears this kind of talk, he'll "call you in", not out, IN... he explains this process in the episode.He fights against toxic masculinity and has founded the Dharma Punx Surf Sangha, a movement created by Noah Levine in the US, which Bones is running here in the UK.He hosts mens groups and retreats with his best mate John, a Kiwi and equally heavily tattooed man. They've started 'New Savages', which again Bones covers in the podcast.This podcast is a fascinating listen and one that even I (Matt) the host wasn't prepared for. There are Goose Bump moments and times of real clarity... it was a joy.Find an hour (commuting, walking, running, doing the housework, gardening or whatever...) and soak all this in.

Hello, I’m Frederika Roberts and it is my pleasure today to welcome you to the trailer for the FOR FLOURISHING’S SAKE podcast! For Flourishing’s Sake is a podcast for teachers and school leaders. It is a five-minute Monday-morning boost of inspiration, support and practical tools to help you and your students flourish. The actual podcast will launch in two weeks’ time, on Monday 2nd September at 7am UK time. Although I’m based in the UK, the content will be relevant to teachers around the world! When I was writing my upcoming book with the working title “For Flourishing’s Sake” - out in Spring 2020 - I interviewed school leaders, teachers, wellbeing leaders and practitioners from around the world and found that many of the issues you face, and the outstanding practices you implement, are similar, though of course you adapt what you do to your local culture. This podcast is therefore not meant to be prescriptive. Who am I to tell you what to do?! It is, however, intended as a quick boost on a Monday morning, to set you up for the week with some ideas, some inspiration, some thoughts on ways to improve your own and your students’ wellbeing, to help you and them flourish inside and outside of school. Over the course of the year, I will not be the only one sharing ideas with you, though. I have a fantastic line-up of educators and experts who will be giving you their Monday morning flourishing tips! For example, when I was in Australia to present at the International Positive Psychology Association’s World Congress a few weeks ago, I asked a few people to record their Monday morning boosters for you: So in the coming weeks and months, you will hear from Sha-en, a Happiness Scientist from Singapore; Christian, Executive Director of Growth Coaching International and Professor of Coaching and Positive Psychology; and Louise Tidmand from Denmark, Chief Innovation Officer at the Strength Academy and PhD Candidate. You will also hear from many of the wonderful educators I interviewed for my book, for example Rhiannon McGee, Head of Positive Education at Geelong Grammar School in Australia, Fabian de Fabiani, Assistant Head Teacher at Townley Grammar School and Director of Character Education and Wellbeing at the Odyssey Trust for Education, and many more! I will offer you my own insights, based on my experience as a former teacher, my Masters in Applied Positive Psychology, my current work in schools as a speaker and trainer, including as co-founder of ‘RWS | Resilience Wellbeing Success’, and my research as an author in positive and character education. So… save the date and tune in on Monday 2nd September at 7am UK time and every Monday at the same time after that for five minutes of inspiration, support and practical ideas you can implement straight away! And if you like what you hear, please share this podcast with your friends and colleagues so we can spread its reach far and wide and all flourish together. Until then… For Flourishing’s Sake, have a great week! Stock Media (music) provided by Lexfiles / Pond5
It's such a privilege and honour to present this podcast today with the Year 5 students (aged 10), and teachers at Ilfracombe's Church of England Junior School. As a parent of 2 boys under the age of 10, I find the whole conversation about kids online to be incredibly negative and over sensationalised in the media. In an effort to have a more positive discussion, I approached my son's school and asked them could I do a podcast about the subject with the Year 5 teachers and students.The school not only embraced the idea but added a whole layer of additional creativity and flair to the discussion that I could never have imagined, likened to "opening Pandora's Box" by Catherine Cox, the Head Teacher.In this podcast you will hear from Maggie Foster, an Assistant Head Teacher and Head of Music at the school, whose passion and love of her subject is transforming the lives of the children in the school. We hear from Maggie and the pupils about how the Church of England School Values of Wisdom, Hope, Community and Dignity, are shaping the children's lives, both on and offline.Even more so, how music is at the heart of everything the school does, and how the Principles of Taiko drumming, which is a Japanese art of drumming, has recently been adopted by the school. The children share how these Principles can be extended out across all manner of experiences both on and offline. We also hear about the benefits of drumming and what it's like to experience a Taiko drumming session. In addition we share fly-on-the-wall discussions in the class rooms between the children and the teachers as they talk about podcasting, digital media, and how to present themselves positively online.There is so much richness to this podcast and whilst I initially went into the school as a concerned, worried parent, I left feeling humbled, uplifted and inspired by what I heard and experienced whilst being at the school. I would like to extend a massive thank you to the Year 5 teachers who are; James Clatworthy, Kimberley Campbell, Lauren Caller, Phoebe Reed, Will Speed, Rachael Moore and Jo Parsons and a heartfelt thank you to Maggie Foster and Catherine Cox whose total commitment to the subject and the discussion enabled this to happen. To my incredible Sound Engineer and Producer, Will Flisk, who attended and recorded 10 hours of content in the classrooms and helped bring the podcast to life in the studio with me.But most importantly I would like to say a huge thank you to the wonderful children in Year 5. You are so very special and you know so much, you guys are truly inspirational and I want to thank you for being so open and free with your conversation, knowledge and kindness. Together with your teachers, we have turned the conversation about kids online on its head, and you will uplift so many people with your positive messages, insight and voices.Thank you so very much.Fiona xxxAdditional Note;'Drop in the Ocean' is featured in this podcast.
