Bridging the Physical and Spiritual: Men's Health Fitness Director Andrew Tracey

I've got a cracking guest joining me today - Andrew Tracey, the fitness director at Men's Health magazine. But Andrew is no ordinary fitness expert. He's someone who has seamlessly integrated the physical and the spiritual, straddling the worlds of hardcore strength training and deep contemplative practice.In this conversation, we explore Andrew's unique journey to developing a lifelong, functional approach to fitness, and how he discovered the transformative power of meditation and self-inquiry. Andrew shares insights on cultivating motivation and discipline by aligning with your deepest values, rather than through suffering. He also reveals how his meditation practice has given him critical distance from the mind's stories, allowing compassion to effortlessly bubble up.Key topics covered:Developing a lifelong, functional fitness routineBalancing modern conveniences with physical health needsThe role of discipline, motivation, and aligning with values in fitnessTracey's meditation and self-inquiry practiceDaily meditation techniques and working with thoughtsBenefits of meditation, including gaining critical distance from the mindInterconnectedness of physical and mental healthExploring the nature of consciousness and identitySimon's book and Banishing Burnout - Finding Flow FREE online courseI’m excited to announce the paperback edition of my book, Champion Thinking: Get Out of Your Own Way, Find Your Peak Performance, is now available.
