Show Notes

It's not every day that you get to talk with someone that has been a Navy Seal.  I've watched documentaries and mainstream movies that depict Seals and they are some of the most highly trained people in the world. Bonafide Bad A$$ Mother F*ers. Knowing just some of what they endure in training, it is hard to not think of them as Real Life Super Heroes.  Then to get to talk with one in real life is pretty cool.  But my guest in this episode is even more exceptional.

Christopher Maher is a former Navy SEAL who endured intense physical, mental, and emotional stress as a child. By combining a “seal mindset” with modern stress management strategies, Christopher taught himself to free his body and mind from pain by developing mental and physical tools for eliminating unresolved stress. Christopher studied Traditional Chinese  Medical Practices at the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine and at Yo San University before continuing his studies at The Universal Healing Tao System. He is a student of Grand Master Mantak Chia at the Universal Tao Master School in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and is currently pursuing his Master’s and Doctorate degrees in Traditional Chinese Medicine .

To Give you more of an idea about what Chris has found in his journey, here's an excerpt from his book Free for Life:

"The attitude of our society is work hard, achieve greatness, and don’t worry about tomorrow. Give it 100 percent all day, every day. Go all out. There is no need for balance, because the medal, the recognition, the signing bonus, is worth the pain.

Intensity at the expense of our health and wellness is encouraged. I certainly bought into this idea during my time in the Navy SEALS, and externally, I appeared to be fit, successful, and satisfied. But inside, I suffered from chronic, debilitating physical and emotional pain.

If this sounds like you, know that there’s a better way to live. You can determine what’s wrong in your life, turn your intensity into peace, and be happier and more successful than ever.

That's just a sampling of who he is and what he has found.  Listen to find out more.
