This is an extra-special episode and actually a chance for you - my frothy listener - to have a crack at my Finding the Frothers Workshop.The Workshop is also known as 'How to have a beer with your heroes' and it will help you do just that! If you'd like to complete the workshop itself, you'll need a pen and a paper (or whatever you use as a pen and paper) and that's pretty much it. You will come away with the Frothers which will turbo-charge your purpose / mission and contact the people to get you there. And the legendary dude in the workshop - Chandler Stevens. A new buddy of mine who I met through the Baby Bathwater group.A bit about Chandler and what we discuss.His work driving the connection between body and mind practiceHow his movement as metaphor is getting "eery results", I'd say lairy ;) Why Hate mail is f*cken awesomeOne of the most powerful moustaches on the planet.Chandler knows which direction he's heading and now he knows who the Frothers are to take him there. Let me know who your 7 Deadly Frothers are at benny@101tokens.com and I can send you more if you're interested. How to connect with Chandler's froth:http://chandlerstevens.com/

Chandler Stevens is a somatic coach. He’s developing and organizing a body of work known as Ecosomatics, which revolves around the connections between body, mind, and environment. In his private coaching practice he focuses on helping environmentally-conscious entrepreneurs get out of chronic pain and restore deep connection of body/mind so that they can tackle our world's biggest problems. In this conversation Chandler and Carl talk about many topics, including functional fitness and natural movement, movement habits and coaching, and the connection of embodiment work and the environment.
Chandler is: A true champion of being human, in a human body, in a natural world.Q: What does coming home to your body look like?What I’ve been clicking with more and more lately is something like -- I just call it a practice of sensory stories. It’s like "Hey, think about your favorite smell. Now tell me a story about your favorite smell."Oh, my gosh, I think back to... I was in this bog in Vermont for a field project and we were walking around on this carpet of moss and all around we could smell these pines and these firs. Wow! Relating this story I get in to my body in some fundamental way. That seems to be nice kind of bridge to take to say: "I notice that I feel better when I talk about my favorite sensory experience."Huh? I wonder why that might be. Maybe because your sensory experience is actually how you make sense of the world. It’s a fundamentally physical thing. There are visceral sensations when we get into this juicy sensory stuff. Ummm...I think “come home to your body” is even an interesting phrase because it’s like…you just have to give yourself permission to make your way back.I look at my job as basically let’s create the context in which you feel open to find areas within yourself where you feel particularly comfortable and supported, to bring awareness to and to reconcile and reintegrate those place where you don’t feel comfortable, you don’t feel supported.Maybe there’s been some traumatic experiences in the past. How do we hold in mind the entirety of this person that we’re working with and create some physical experience for them to reconcile that even thought that’s uncomfortable it’s a part of me that’s not something foreign. Even though that’s uncomfortable that’s something I could get to know. And that maybe in that getting to know it becomes more comfortable. About the ShowWhat is the intersection of body, being, and environment? How do we move ourselves and our students into the places that are uncomfortable but inevitably a part of the beautiful whole?Being fully present with your students. Drawing them back into themselves. This was a large part of what James and I chatted with Chandler Stevens about and although the conversation was a collision of a lot of topics we've ruminated on in past shows, it's completely NEW and fresh and inspiring.Oh, and...There's something in his voice that gives you a sense of his steadiness, his curiosity, his dedication to self-knowing, exploration, and being of service. It will draw you in and keep you. This is one of those episodes that leaves you with a deep sense of calm and makes you want to pause. You're going to love it!Listen. Ponder. Question. Meditate on all the juiciness...And SHARE.About the ChandlerChandler Stevens is a somatic coach.
