This week we are chatting to Brian Downes, Adventurer, Performance Nerd and Resilience expert.
Once of the core concepts that we speak about is old Irish tradition called Meitheal. Meitheal describes how neighbors would come together to assist in the saving of crops or in other tasks. Brian talks about how this sense of community can be used today to bring people together for the greater good.
We cover many topics in our conversation:
How earning money was not the most important thing in life.
Following his passion in Coaching, creating Performance nerds with John McNamara.
The impact of
climbing Irelands highest Mountain at 11.
How failure should be part of the
process.
How Spirituality and Mindfulness has helped with
Brians journey.
Mindfulness Activities like
cooking that bring Brian into the Present
Moment.
The impact of bringing people
into Nature in the mountains.
The origins of
Meitheal
in Ireland and how it
how it helps with Collaboration.
Tips for working with a busy
Racing Mind.
Not forgetting
that all important question:
What does Mindful Living mean to
Brian?
