My guests this week are Devon Hase and Craig Hase, authors of the new book, How Not to Be a Hot Mess. These two have a way of making the principles of mindfulness and Buddhism relevant and easy to understand. As you’ll hear, we discussed many points of intersection in how they and I think about mindfulness, and the need for additional practices besides simply being present and open. We talked a lot about “waking up from the dream” to more fully inhabit our lives, what Buddhism has to say about our sex lives, and the importance of bringing ritual into our lives. I think you’ll find a lot here that’s useful. Other topics we explored included: How to live out of what matters to us Finding centering and grounding when things are shifting around us Why mindfulness is the cornerstone of a life well-lived Mindfulness as coming home to ourselves Settling the mind so we can look at our life with precision What we can learn from being in touch with our bodies The freedom in discovering what’s actually here What it means to be less identified with our experience The difference between knowledge and a felt experience Beginner’s mind: experiencing things as if for the first time Our shared admiration of Pema Chödrön’s work, including The Wisdom of No Escape and When Things Fall Apart  The “genuine heart of sadness” and the invitation to be real (see Shambhala: The Sacred Path of the Warrior) What it means to “wake up from the dream” How we tend to live in our thoughts and stories, vs. being in the raw experience of now Making Buddhist principles come to life The “bliss of blamelessness” How bad sex is related to the culture of consumerism Letting go of “endpoints” in sex Concerns about the influence of pornography on young people’s developing ideas about sex Why Craig recommends not getting drunk or high The healthy homeostasis that our bodies naturally seek Bringing a bit of monastery into our daily lives The contentment we can find through simplicity The importance of ritual, and how to bring little moments of ritual into our days Devon Hase has been practicing meditation for the past 20 years. She has spent years in meditation retreat and has been mentored by Joseph Goldstein, Tara Brach, Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, and many others. Before teaching dharma full time, Devon was an English professor for a decade, where she focused on social and cultural studies. As a dharma teacher, Devon supports practitioners with persona dharma mentoring, serves on retreat teams at the Insight Meditation Society and Spirit Rock, and offers meditation retreats with Craig throughout North America and Europe. Photo by Natalie Faye She mentors mindfulness teachers through Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach’s Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program, and can be found teaching meditation on the Simple Habit app. Craig Hase started intensive meditation training in 1994. His biggest influences have been Zentatsu Richard Baker-Roshi, Joseph Goldstein, and Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche. Craig lived in a Zen monastery for 6 years before getting his PhD in counseling psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he had the good fortune to learn from neuroscientist Richard Davidson and contemplative scholar John Dunne, among other luminaries. He mentors dharma and meditation practitioners full-time and teaches all over the place with Devon and others. When they’re not flying around teaching retreats, Devon and Craig live together in Ashland, Oregon, in urban retreat, dividing their weeks between practice and service.

On episode 34 we're taking a 360° look with the VP of Sales for Power Plate, Craig Bradley, at how technology is impacting new training methods in the fitness industry. If you've been curious about whole body vibration training and how this technology along with many others is now changing both the group and one-on-one training experience, you're in the right place. But were not just talking about the Power Plate on today's show, we're also learning about the impact of new technology in the primary vertical markets, including real direct to consumer, blue-chip clubs, medical, and active aging segments, where Craig explains what he believes the next 24 months hold in both opportunities and growth potential for all fitness professionals. Craig also presents a handful of controversial ideas around exercise adherence and turns the personal training model upside down, as he shares about a pilot test in one of his former clubs where they gave away personal training, and how it actually earned more revenue for the club than when they charged.  What are the various training methods we're seeing rise up in our space, fueled by new technologies? The answers to those questions and much more takeaways for club owners, operators, and fitness professionals right here, right now with Craig Bradley. About Craig Bradley Craig Bradley is the VP of Sales for Power Plate and Performance Health Systems. As a global business professional capable of blending sales and marketing skills with operational expertise to grow profits, Craig has a reputation for reducing costs and improving customer satisfaction in the fitness industry. With a vast understanding of the global market, Craig has deep expertise in the relationships between fiduciary responsibility and the value of diversity across multiple verticals. Listen To Episode 034 As Craig Uncovers What is whole body vibrational training Understanding the new training methods using technology Craig's vantage on the primary vertical markets in fitness: Real direct to consumer Commercial fitness space: elite professional, NFL, NBA, S&C Blue Chip Clubs: Equinox, Lifetime Active aging space Medical space Understanding the Power Plate: vibrational platform that essentially helps the consumer prepare faster, perform better, and recover quicker for exercise by stimulating the natural reflexes, increasing muscle activation, and improving circulation Why more and more options exist now for the home user like Peloton, Daily Burn, and Power Plate Why fitness consumers and members of gyms are supplementing what they do in the club with activities at work or home How will the role of trainers will shift as new training methods rise up The role of empathy for personal trainers combined with technology Why Craig believes that being in a management position actually is a popularity contest, regardless of conventional thinking around the role of this position What Craig believes that the next 12-24 months (trends) will create in our space Top 3 Takeaways From The Show Craig reminds us about the important of fitness professionals to practicing emotional intelligence, combined with technology will be in the digital world ahead. The reality is that many fitness pros are gym rats, and they love being in the gym to work out. But the clients they work with don't always share that same mindset. The long-term behavior change strategies from trainers (that want to serve their clients where they actually are) must include smarter touch points through cloud-based accountability and proven behavior change models. Vibrational training is currently proving to be a revenue booster for small group training where novelty and individualized programming are valued most. We're also seeing the medical and active aging space rapidly adopt vibrational training due to its benefits and low impact for people who suffer with chronic conditions. Smart clubs and small group training facilities are taking a bigger look at vibrational training in 2017. Craig believes that combining member club usage data with the data sets outside the four walls is the future of fitness and represents a major opportunity in both revenue and customer service. Imagine what omni-channel and omnipresence experience could be delivered to our members if we could contextualize their data in and out of the facility; tailored to give them the right message at the right time based on how they actually live. Power Quotes From Craig "Make it fun. I think the more you can engage and coach folks in a fun environment, the more adherence you'll see. There is a reason why most of the fitness brands that are more 'party, playful, and fun' in their orientation do extremely well, and that's the area that I would try and encourage operators to explore."  -  Craig Bradley on the Fitness + Technology Podcast "I think diet is the big opportunity for fitness operators out there. What people put in their body is obviously more important than what they do with their body, and I see that as a huge opportunity. Obviously there are diet subscriptions and apps now, but if fitness companies can find a solution whereby they offer a diet solution to their subscriber base, this is a massive opportunity." - Craig Bradley on the Fitness + Technology Podcast Resources Mentioned From Craig Power Plate website Power Plate on LinkedIn Craig Bradley on LinkedIn Contact Craig Bradley Personal Power Plate Power Plate on facebook Power Plate on Twitter Power Plate on Instagram Simon Sinek: Start With WHY Power Plate in the news Private studios using vibrational training New Equinox Facility in Chicago: Crossing the bridge into fitness, wellness and into hospitality  Apple Watch in Fitness Pokemon GO Small Group Training Using Power Plate ASFS Webinar: Vibrational training FTP Episode #030 JR Burgess: Medical Fitness The 2017 FIT-C Tech Trends Report Thanks To Our Outstanding Sponsors Turbo-STRAPP is a wearable platform that harnesses the power of wearable fitness devices and seamlessly shares the data with fitness professionals.

I first met today's podcast guest when he sent me a bottle of strange pills in the mail. Normally, I would toss such a bottle into my pantry or garage with all the other random powders, oils, capsules, pills, lotions and creams that often show up at my house... ...but this bottle intrigued me. Along with echinacea and beet root extract, the bottle contained a bunch of other stuff I'd never heard of. Stuff like "Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae". "Defatted, Vegan, Grass Fed Argentinian Liver Anhydrate". A version of Cordyceps with the name "Sinesis". So I called the guy who sent it to me and asked him what it was for. It turns out that he, and this bottle, are far from normal. His name is Craig Dinkel, and on today's podcast, you'll discover: -How Craig went from almost drowning in the pool to being one of the fastest swimmers in the world...
