The Manzilla Men's Podcast

Hello there folks. Want a fast track way to help get rid of your baggage, demons and stresses from the past? Well this is certainly one way to help that. Alan Dolan, ‘the Breath Guru’ is one of the world’s leading breathwork practitioners. He was early adopter, and has inspired many meditation and spiritual influencers around the world (including Russell Brand) into his way of feeding the soul. 

Combined with other holistic and psychotherapeutic methods this could really turbocharge your focus, resolve and mindset for 2022. 

In this Manzilla Podcast episode, Gavin talks to Alan on : 

• How the breathwork journey began and how simple it is
• Is it a type of fitness 
• Why it’s a so-called ‘miracle cure’ for some 
• Scepticism around breathwork 
• How breathwork is directly linked to de-stressing and re-balancing 

Please let us know what you think in the comments guys.

This is a Manzilla podcast documentary show to mark 2021 International Men’s Day - the theme being to improve better relations between men and women. This documentary explores ideas and solutions around what MEN can do, should do, and must do to improve women’s safety. 

We saw and heard harrowing details of the murder of Sarah Everard - and the killing of Sabina Nessa… the vast vast majority of these despicable and heinous acts are committed or facilitated by men. According to the Research for the Femicide Census - across the UK - 1,425 women were killed by men in the 10 years to 2018. They report most people found guilty of violent crimes against women are men. So what can we as guys do to step up, not feel blamed and take assertive action? 

This show could trigger hard emotions, to do with : 

Rape 

Abduction

Sexual harassment 

Stalking 

Lewd behaviour 

Details of murder

Aswell as: 

Education around masculinity and the patriarchy 

Toxic male behaviour 

Lad culture 

Relations around gender politics and chauvinism. 

The aim of the show is promote and open safe discussion where each person can come to it fresh and hopefully get some insight from the powerful speakers below… 

Jamie Klingler - the co-founder of Reclaim these Streets … the group set up after the murder of Sarah Everard, and for remembrance of all women lost to violence … they campaign for action to ensure no woman has to be asked ’text me when you get home’ again… https://twitter.com/ReclaimTS 

Flora Henry - who is a journalist and writer, and talks openly about what it’s like when you’re harassed and the extent young women go to protect themselves. https://www.instagram.com/_floraharriet 

Ben Bidwell - who is known as the Naked Professor online and is a men’s mindset and masculinity expert …we talk all things on how men need to think about this issue… https://www.instagram.com/thenakedprofessor 

And Jess Phillips - Labour MP for Birmingham Yardley… Jess has done fantastic work in raising awareness for women’s safety for over a decade - and is one of THE strongest voices out there on the state of play, what needs to happen and how we need to start thinking about this more urgently now than ever. https://www.instagram.com/jessphillipsmp

Merry Xmas all. In this short festive clip, Gavin (@gavinrofficial) gives his take on why men need to talk more this Christmas. The pandemic has affected us in so many ways - mental health has taken a battering, the more we bottle things up, the more harm it WILL cause in the long term, either to ourselves or our loved ones. 

Thanks for listening this year, more good things to come (in general!) for 2021! Best wishes, have a Happy New Year.
