QFF Spent 20 years working in the labor field and due to poor lifestyle, got burned out. One day, saw a flyer in the mail about the first 24-hour gym. Signed up and went every 4am for a year. The Outback Mind is helping change that. (Aaron Schultz)

Description

In this episode, Michael interviews Aaron Schultz, founder of Outback Mind, based in Queensland, Australia. He is a strong advocate for a preventative approach to men’s health. Having overcome his own period of huge self-doubt, crippling anxiety and poor lifestyle behaviours caused by overwork and burnout, Aaron managed to turn his weakness into his strength, becoming a teacher of meditation, yoga and anxiety management education. Aaron now has over 7,000 practical teaching hours, and Outback Mind is now expanding throughout regional Australia. Aaron says you've got to make health and well-being the foundation of your life. If you can do that well and do it continuously, then everything else benefits, not only in terms of business but also family and other people around you. This Cast Covers: The benefits of his daily training to his life Waking up at 4am so no one could see him train to avoid supposed profiling, all that type of stuff. Why getting your rhythm early in the morning is important How kids habits have changed from our time to kids now spending more time in front of a screen How lights can affect the way you sleep Links:  Outback Mind Additional Resources: A Wink from A Guru by Aaron Schultz     Quotes: “Back then University wasn't an option coming from a small country town, it was sort of either you go to work, or you become an academic, and I wasn't probably one of them.” — Aaron Schultz “Look after yourself, if you can do that well and do it continuously, then everything else benefits.” — Aaron Schultz “A lot of people start the day with a stimulant like coffee or something. And that sort of gets the nervous system escalated. But there's always a downside to that. But if we can just get into this rhythm early, I think that sets us up for a good day.” — Aaron Schultz “One thing that helped me was paying attention to my diet, and my nutrition, to make sure that I was able to do what I needed to do throughout the day successfully and not sort of hit peaks and troughs with my energy.” — Aaron Schultz “Putting even just 1% or 24 minutes a day, to be able to commit that to your well-being the physical body responds to that, your emotional health gets better.” — Aaron Schultz
