Death and loss have been front and center lately.
Michael’s father passed away 2 years ago. I lost my father one year ago this past February. My mother passed away just a little over a month ago.

One aspect of working with men and being around men in this way has illustrated a common question.
How To Be A Balanced And Healthy Man
While food and exercise are important to us, it is by no means the only area we focus on. For us “health and wellness” incorporates all aspects of life.

The Benefits Of Not Eating. Have You Experienced Fasting?
At this point in time I’m pretty sure you’ve heard of fasting. Perhaps you’ve even already experimented with it.

Last week in Part 1 of this blog I shared how I had this dream that woke me up to my “energy leaks.”
In this post we’ll talk about some of the methods you can use to start turning things around.

I Had A Dream
I had a very short, but impactful dream. I believe it was one of those lucid type dreams where the subconscious reaches through and sends a powerful insight.
In this dream, I found myself completely surrounded by what I can only describe as zombies.
Want to be happier? It Always Starts With Love.
For most of us, the emotion we call love is usually best reserved for a few specific interactions. A moment between a father and his son, acknowledging the deep bonds they share. A guy and his lady looking into each other’s eyes, butterflies fluttering about in their stomachs. A group of men sitting around a fire, grateful for their friendship. All of these contribute to your sense of happiness and wellbeing.
