"Some of the work is about learning about yourself, learning about what your patterns are. What do you react to? How do you react? What can you do instead? What can you do to soothe yourself? And some of it is about developing emotional/psychological resilience." #masculinity

NEW PODCAST: Exploring the Depths of Masculine Psychology The influence of parental relationships, the evolution of men's groups, and the importance of self-awareness and emotional resilience with Rick Belden, a pioneer in men's personal development. youtube.com/watch?v=r3nN93TC…

Just watched first 3 hrs of Pam Bondi's testimony to House Judiciary Committee. As an adult still in the process of recovering from childhood abuse, I can honestly say it was one of the worst things I've ever seen in my life. Tears of rage at her monstrous denials and diversions.

"Our modern culture is obsessed with 'intelligence' in the narrow, brain-centered sense (logic, analysis, problem-solving) but our primary intelligence is actually rooted in the senses." ~ @LolaNeuroPhylo

The Fractal Starvation One of the most profound ways our modern environment fails us is the lack of "natural fractals." These are the self-repeating patterns found in clouds, trees, coastlines, and mountain ranges. Research in biophilia shows that when the human eye views these specific patterns, the brain produces alpha waves associated with a state of relaxed wakefulness. Our modern world is composed almost entirely of straight lines and flat surfaces. To your ancient visual cortex, a flat white wall is "nothingness." It provides no data. When you spend all day in a square room looking at a square screen, your brain is essentially starving for the complex, soothing geometry it evolved to process. This absence of natural pattern leads to a subtle, chronic cognitive fatigue.

Short preview clip from an upcoming podcast interview during which I discuss the #MotherWound and other topics that I address in my work with men. The full video will be posted in its entirety on Feb 12 and I'll post the link for it here then. #masculinity #menscoach

"The true source of authentic, uniquely individual #masculinity is within each man ... in his mind, heart, body." huffingtonpost.co.uk/rick-be…

It's okay to have your feelings without trying to interpret or translate them or take any immediate action. Just naming them and holding a space to feel them in your body, even if only in the most subtle way, is often enough to achieve a state change from the inside out.

Something I'd like to see getting more priority in 2026. #masculinity

I've just learned about a great new resource for men. It's a directory of men's groups which is available to everyone without charge at the link below. Check it out! #masculinity #mensgroup soultoupee.com/directory

I discovered yesterday that TikTok is restricting visibility of this video and requiring login to watch it. The reason given? "Posts that some may find uncomfortable are unavailable." What are your thoughts? Is this video too "uncomfortable" for a general audience to see?

Why are men less likely to attend therapy? ➡ We looked at the deep-rooted barriers men face. ➡ We built a clear and accessible pathway. ➡ We assembled passionate therapists. ➡ We launch the first dedicated directory to support men, today. menscounsellingservice.com/

Last Monday was the eighth anniversary of launching my coaching service for men. Since then, I've worked with 100s of clients all over the world, including individuals from 30 states in the U.S. and 24 other nations. Sincere thanks to everyone who's supported me in this work.

I'd like to invite everyone to the live premiere of my recent visit w/Ross Rosenberg on my YouTube channel TODAY at 2PM CDT. Click below to watch and join in the live chat w/me (and other viewers) during the premiere. Hope to see you there! #MotherWound youtube.com/watch?v=ujG3bdwE…

My latest conversation with Ross Rosenberg about the Mother Wound in men, how it shows up in adulthood, and some of the options and opportunities available for resolving it. #MotherWound #codependency #masculinity youtube.com/watch?v=JOCtjjSD…

AI has no mind/heart/soul. It is incapable of empathy, compassion, imagination, or intuition. It has no life experience. It cannot feel. It is just a simulation of a human being. It cannot care. It does not "hallucinate". If it generates incorrect data it is just malfunctioning.

A sad, & often infuriating, part of complex trauma recovery is coming to terms with exactly how much of the story we were told about ourselves, our family, our church, and/or reality, was distorted & withheld by people we should have been able to trust growing up.

My recent convo w/Andrew Pain about my work w/men (and how I came to do it) is already 4th most popular interview on his YT channel, and only needs another 30 views to claim top spot. Click on the link below and give it a boost! #masculinity #MotherWound youtube.com/watch?v=NEClS-fl…

Even if your mind forgets the date, your body remembers. Anniversaries of loss can bring waves of grief without warning. Your body is wise. Mark the date. Light a candle. Take a walk. Let your body guide you in honoring what it remembers. How will you honor your body? #GriefAnniversary #EmbodiedMemory #ItsGrief #EdyNathan

Excellent resource list for men in the UK.
