Better Man Community – Shoulder to Shoulder: Building Real Connections

The Better Man Community was created to give men the space to grow, challenge themselves, and build meaningful connections. We kicked off our monthly meet-ups last month with a climb up Dumyat Hill, Stirling. It wasn’t just about the challenge; it became a powerful opportunity to network, share personal growth stories, and tap into the strength of collective experience.

BETTER MAN MEET UP

The power of this community is in the people you meet. Standing shoulder to shoulder with like-minded men - those who challenge, inspire, and support you - is where real growth happens. With each upcoming event, we’ll be spotlighting members of our community, bringing in new challenges, and strengthening the bonds that make this group unique.

The next event is happening this coming weekend, Sunday 9 March, in Glasgow - so if you want in, now’s the time.

FLOURISH & FUNDAMENTALS

The Art of Stillness: Lessons from an Unmoving Man

There’s a reason I talk about stillness so much - because it’s one of the hardest things to master. Imagine this: sitting perfectly still for three hours. No scratching an itch. No shifting position. No reacting when a fly lands on your face. No getting up for the toilet - no matter how bursting you are! It’s an exercise in absolute discipline, a battle between mind and body. Some say the intensity is on par with childbirth - though, let’s be real, no man should be brave enough to make that comparison.

Stillness isn’t about doing nothing - it’s about mastering everything. Your reactions, your impulses, your discomfort. 

 What I was practicing that day is a form of meditation, of which there are many, called strong determination meditation - where you commit to absolute stillness, no matter what. The goal? If I can sit for hours, you can manage a few minutes a day. Give it a go: sit still for five minutes, breathe, and see how it feels.
