Men Talking Mindfulness

"Everyman" Mindfulness - with listener guests Daryl Roy and Randy Bach

Listen on

Episode notes

Excited for today’s show… as per usual, it's the standard raw, uncut, and unapologetic… but today is a little different… a special show… because our guests are actually two of our listeners!  Randy Bach and Daryl Roy… two self proclaimed “regular guys” who are now mindfulness practitioners - and from our conversation today, you’ll see what mindfulness has done for them, how they overcame obstacles and continue to run into obstacles with the practice (perfectly normal!) and how mindfulness is for everyone - all genders and sexes, all races, all religions, all ethnicities… everyone… NOT just the yogis, monks, and hippies!

Announcements…

• Next cohort for the Mindfulness and Movement(M2) Experience kicks off December 1st.  To find out more about this program developed by us and our partners at MovementRx, check out https://movement-rx.com/mtm or, join us for one of the upcoming FREE workshops… https://offers.movement-rx.com/mindfulness-movement-workshop-2… these workshops are next week Nov 17th at 12 noon EST or Nov 29th at 6pm EST.

Daryl Roy: After a career in the US Army and Commercial Nuclear Operations, Daryl founded 3D Media, a tech company bringing augmented reality and virtual reality to military and industrial worlds for knowledge retention, increased safety, and effective training. Daryl is married and has 3 children.

Randy Bach: Randy claims to be  “just a small town kid from the Appalachian Mountains of Northeast Tennessee” but he has grown into an amazing man… a solid husband, father, grandfather, veteran, military/veteran spouse and military retiree who never stopped dreaming. Randy feels truly blessed beyond anything he could have ever imagined, from being given a chance to enter the world’s greatest Air Force on a moral character waiver and then going on to achieving the rank of E-9 (Chief Master Sergeant) to finding and marrying his amazing wife and raising 2 daughters and now being blessed with 3 grandkids.
