Keep your eyes peeled for the first challenge which will help you build stress resilience, understand how the cold can reduce pain associated with autoimmune diseases and build a stronger mindset. Henry

Here's a few books that have really opened my mind to new ways of looking at trauma, auto-immune diseases and health; The Myth of Normal - Gabor Maté The Body Keeps the Score - Bessel van der Kolk The Stress Prescription - Elissa Epel Let me know if you've read/listened to any of them as I'd love to hear your thoughts.

So I thought it might be useful for everyone to understand my vision for this awesome community as it grows and where I'd like it to go in the future. The vision is to create a global community where men can open up, be their most authentic selves and share without hesitation, both offline and online. This skool community will be the online part. Online skool element: Regular group video calls where everyone comes together and gets to know each other on a deeper level. The group sessions will contain discussions on many topics such as mindset, nature, meditation, cold exposure and breathwork. There will be regular challenges with different durations so everyone can be involved. The resources section is to provide you with as much value as possible and for you to use almost like a library. This will include recommended books, writing prompts, exercises to help destress, toolkits, TEDtalks, recommended podcasts and so much more. 1:1 personal coaching sessions. Offline in person: Community gatherings in nature where we come together as a group and enjoy experiences together such as hiking, cold plunging, fire pits, breathwork sessions. This is to build even stronger bonds between individuals. Day, weekend and week long retreats which will include a variety of experiences such as; barefoot walks, ice baths, good local food, mindset talks and seminars, guest speakers, yoga instruction and primal movement and again, loads more. I would like all of this to be available to you in the near future so keep your eyes peeled for new additions. Thanks again for being here. Aloha. Henry

Is there a part of your life where you feel out of alignment? If so, I'd love to learn more about it here. For me, most areas feel pretty aligned at the moment. But if I think harder or look deeper, I'd perhaps say my relationship with my girlfriend is a little out of alignment at the moment. We've only been together for around 5 months and it was very intense and deep at the beginning but for the last few weeks, things have been challenging.
