Excited for today’s show… as per usual, it's the standard raw, uncut, and unapologetic… but today is a little different… a special show… because our guests are actually two of our listeners!  Randy Bach and Daryl Roy… two self proclaimed “regular guys” who are now mindfulness practitioners - and from our conversation today, you’ll see what mindfulness has done for them, how they overcame obstacles and continue to run into obstacles with the practice (perfectly normal!) and how mindfulness is for everyone - all genders and sexes, all races, all religions, all ethnicities… everyone… NOT just the yogis, monks, and hippies! Announcements… Next cohort for the Mindfulness and Movement(M2) Experience kicks off December 1st.  To find out more about this program developed by us and our partners at MovementRx, check out https://movement-rx.com/mtm or, join us for one of the upcoming FREE workshops… https://offers.movement-rx.com/mindfulness-movement-workshop-2… these workshops are next week Nov 17th at 12 noon EST or Nov 29th at 6pm EST. Daryl Roy: After a career in the US Army and Commercial Nuclear Operations, Daryl founded 3D Media, a tech company bringing augmented reality and virtual reality to military and industrial worlds for knowledge retention, increased safety, and effective training. Daryl is married and has 3 children. Randy Bach: Randy claims to be  “just a small town kid from the Appalachian Mountains of Northeast Tennessee” but he has grown into an amazing man… a solid husband, father, grandfather, veteran, military/veteran spouse and military retiree who never stopped dreaming. Randy feels truly blessed beyond anything he could have ever imagined, from being given a chance to enter the world’s greatest Air Force on a moral character waiver and then going on to achieving the rank of E-9 (Chief Master Sergeant) to finding and marrying his amazing wife and raising 2 daughters and now being blessed with 3 grandkids.   Lindsay’s Timestamps (via Restream) 0:00:20 Intro 0:01:20 LIVE 0:02:30 Next M2 Experience starts December 1st! https://movement-rx.com/mtm 0:04:30 Welcome to our guests and listeners Daryl and Randy! 0:06:30 Will leads Opening Grounding Practice 0:11:00  Daryl's Mindfulness Journey 0:17:00 Randy's Mindfulness Journey 0:21:30 What drove Randy to find Mindfulness 0:25:00 https://missionsixzero.com/challenge/ 0:26:30 What Daryl discovered during the process of healing 0:33:30 Daryl's current practice and why it is so important 0:36:30 How Randy uses simple techniques to ground whenever he needs 0:39:00 A sneak peek at next season's topics 0:44:30 Randy on becoming emotionally aware 0:48:00 How Daryl is learning to deal with guilt 0:57:00 Why you should write yourself a letter 0:58:30 Recognizing how our own practices are affecting those around us 1:04:30 What does it take to stick with the practice? 1:09:30 Jon leads Closing Grounding Practice Website ► http://mentalkingmindfulness.com/ Listen on Spotify ► https://bit.ly/MTM-Podcast Listen on Apple Podcast ► https://bit.ly/MTM_Apple_Podcast Watch on YouTube ► https://bit.ly/3BifO6Q Opening and closing Music: Malecon by Soyb & Amine Maxwell https://soundcloud.com/soybmusic https://soundcloud.com/aminemaxwell Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0 Free Download / Stream: https://bit.ly/al-malecon Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/xbWzYbtMgIE Hosted on Ausha.

In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” - that’s from the great Vickor Frankle  So open your mind and ears and get ready to learn some new mindfulness tools that will help enhance your life.     0:00:20Intro 0:01:20LIVE 0:05:20Introducing Dr. Seth Hickerson 0:08:00Jon leads Opening Grounding Practice 0:12:00Viktor Frankl quote 0:13:16Dr. Hickerson's Story 0:15:30What does it mean to live with mindfulness? 0:19:00What is the "gap" between a stimulus and an action?STEA - Stimulus, Thought, Emotion, Action 0:26:00Everything is in your perceptionExercising your brain is more than reading a book 0:35:00Capitalism survives on negative stimuli0: 47:00How do we start? 1:12:30Dr. Hickerson leads Closing Grounding Practice mysteadymind.com Use Code msm25 for a 25% discount  🗣 TALK TO US ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA  Website ► http://mentalkingmindfulness.com/ Listen on Spotify ► https://bit.ly/MTM-Podcast Listen on Apple Podcast ► https://bit.ly/MTM_Apple_Podcast Watch on YouTube ► https://bit.ly/3BifO6Q Instagram MTM ► https://www.instagram.com/mentalkingmindfulness/ Instagram Will ► https://www.instagram.com/willnotfear/ Instagram Jon ► https://www.instagram.com/mindfulfrogman/ MTM Facebook Group ► https://www.facebook.com/groups/153173176744665 LinkedIn ► https://www.linkedin.com/company/men-talking-mindfulness-podcast Opening and closing Music: Malecon by Soyb & Amine Maxwell https://soundcloud.com/soybmusic https://soundcloud.com/aminemaxwell Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0 Free Download / Stream: https://bit.ly/al-malecon Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/xbWzYbtMgIE #mindfulness #fitness #physicalfitness #meditation #health #wellness #wellbeing #strength #navyseals #usmc Hosted on Ausha.
