A different definition of manhood (a therapist explains) - Matthew Braman

from The Mature Male · host Wes Lambert

Matthew Braman is a mindfulness educator, men's work facilitator, and father whose work focuses on the intersection of emotional intelligence, masculine identity, and present-moment awareness.Most men hear "mindfulness" and check out immediately. It sounds passive, soft, and disconnected from everything men actually care about — fatherhood, purpose, relationships, performance. Matthew Braman has spent years working with exactly those men, and what he's found is that the resistance to mindfulness is usually a symptom of the same problem mindfulness solves.Expect to learn why the men who most need mindfulness are the ones most likely to dismiss it, what mindfulness actually is when you strip away the incense and the apps, how emotional dysregulation shows up in men's behavior in ways they rarely recognize in themselves, what it means to be a mindful father versus a merely present one, how mindfulness practice changes the quality of a man's relationships without requiring him to become someone else, the specific entry points into mindfulness that actually work for men who are action-oriented, how to hold fatherhood, career demands, and personal growth without losing yourself in any of them and much more...Get in touch in the comments below or head to...Website: www.weslambert.meEmail: [email protected]: https://substack.com/@weslambertSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5Yv1ciX90C3zdPxD67kjyY?si=7591bc0f32da4f23Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-mature-male/id1805978833
