Figuring Things Out

Series 6 of the Figuring Things Out Podcast explores the topic of Fear & Risk.

In this conversation, Wil Brown and Chiara delve into the world of free diving and shark photography, exploring the psychological aspects of fear and excitement in the ocean. Chiara shares her experiences with various shark species, emphasizing the importance of understanding these creatures rather than fearing them. The discussion also touches on the art of underwater photography, safety measures while diving, and the significance of educating others about sharks to change perceptions and promote conservation.

In this episode of Side Notes, Wil outlines a simple yet incredibly powerful process of working with fear. He explains his experience with diving with shark, and how he felt his body literally freeze up. He then explains a simple process that helps him learn from this and apply it in other areas that cause elevated levels of autonomic arousal AKA stress and fear. If you’re afraid of falling from a handstand, this one’s for you! In fact, if you’re afraid of anything right now - THIS ONE IS FOR YOU!!

In this episode of Side Notes, Wil breaks down the 5 key take aways from our latest series on Longevity.

Tip 1 - Ageism is real, how to be aware of it.

Tip 2 - How to move to increase your Vitality.

Tip 3 - Breathe correctly to fix your snoring and long term health.

Tip 4 - BOTH Spontaneity & Rhythm are the keys to youthfulness.

Tip 5 - The whole connected organism, and personal responsibility.

To get a deeper insight into each key point, please do head over to the main series where I interviewed 5 guests on the topic.

As always, each series is fantastically diverse and offers many different and unique perspectives on the topic of longevity. I was lucky enough to speak to a Doctor, with over 20 years of experience. I spoke with the FOUNDER of Parkour and James Bond Stunt Man, now in his 50s and still as active and vibrant as ever. I spoke with an ex-professional Rugby player, and two movement teachers - one into his 60s, and the other half his age.

David Jackson is a Breath Work Coach for high performing athletes, based in Wales, UK. Previously he was a professional rugby player, but after a series of brutal head injuries he was forced to move on. He founded the highly successful “School of Calisthenics” before diving into the his now profession of breath work coach…

In this conversation we explore the concept of longevity, and the significance of failure as a learning opportunity. Jacko highlights the significance of physical intelligence, efficient movement, and proper breathing techniques in various physical activities, with a focus on the role of the rib cage, diaphragm, and airways. Lastly, we discuss the balance between longevity and pushing personal limits in elite sports, the tricky balance between - quite literally - go hard, or stay home.
