094: 3 Profound Takeaways from the Man Flow Yoga "Be The Better You" Retreat
Manage episode 415962844 series 3343633
This past weekend, 10+ guys came together at the Be The Better You Retreat to be open, honest, and vulnerable. While we worked out and did yoga—it is a Man Flow Yoga retreat after all—the true value of the retreat was getting like-minded guys in the same room to talk about their emotions.
There were three distinct themes that kept repeating throughout the retreat. And I have my own personal takeaways too.
In this episode, I’m sharing a recap of the Be The Better You Retreat and revealing:
- The three biggest takeaways from the weekend (and how to apply these lessons to your everyday life)
- How men gaslight themselves (and how to stop doing this)
- Why implementing change is so hard—and why your loved ones secretly don’t want you to change
And more that will help you improve your overall mental and emotional wellbeing, including…
- The weird reason it's easier to share deep things with strangers than it is with your loved ones (3:33)
- How you gaslight yourself without realizing it (and why this is particularly common in men) (5:12)
- How to ask for what you want—even if it’s uncomfortable (6:48)
- Why committing to changes for a shorter period of time makes it more likely that you’ll stick with them (8:25)
- The exact amount of time to plan any fitness or dieting goals around (9:14)
- How celebrating milestones “hijacks” your brain and turns goals into habits (9:38)
- A simple, yet proven way to decrease anxiety and depression and boost your happiness (15:40)
- Why it can be a mistake to validate others’ feelings (17:33)
