GET WET SOON Surf & Yoga Immersions

In todays episode I talk to Max Strom, one of the pioneers in the Breathwork-World, who is teaching the method since a time before it was even a big trend.

Before that he used to practice Qui Gong and also started Yoga (after his Girlfriend pushed him into a class) and after a while he found out, for himself and a lot of other people, that the key to inner peace was in the breath itself. 

So he dove deeper into the wisdom of how to transform lifes by using the breath. He is sharing his knowledge for 26 years as a speaker in three inspiring Ted talks, as an author with his two  books „A life worth breathing“ and „There is no app for happiness“ and last but not least as a teacher in workshops, immersions and retreats worldwide and as well as several online courses and classes.  

In our conversation we touched these subjects:

• How to find / recalibrate your purpose

• His own Journey from being a screenplay writer, a musician to becoming a yoga- and breathwork-teacher

• The role of breath for our personal transformatioin

• Why crying is supports processing trauma

• How we created a world / society that we actually can’t live in

• How social problems get „fixed“ with chemicals

• Why abandoning our lifestyle as a tribe isn´t a good thing

• The symptoms of panic attacks and anxiety and how to process them

• Why recreating emotional intimacy helps in our relationships 

• Why it´s still difficult for men to show their emotions

• Why suppressing emotions leads to the inability to feel 

• What each of us can do in our daily life to stay connected

• How to learn to listen to our intuition

Jules Ahoi ist mittlerweile eine bekannte Größe in der deutschen Musiklandschaft. Und das zu recht - 2016 wanderte er zunächst nach Frankreich aus, um sich auf das Surfen und seine Musik zu konzentrieren. Nach einiger Zeit kam er zurück nach Deutschland, um hier noch intensiver an seiner Musik zu arbeiten.

Mit Melancholic Dreamwave erschien in diesem Jahr sein mittlerweile fünftes Album und es ist ihm wahrlich anzusehen, wie groß die Freude ist, endlich wieder auf Tournee und damit nah bei seinen Fans zu sein.

Wir trafen ihn während der "Saltwater Session" vor seinem ausverkauften Konzert im Knust im Hamburger Saltwater Shop und unterhielten uns unter anderem über:

• das Gefühl nach zwei Jahren wieder live spielen zu können
• die Inspiration für "Melancholic Dreamwave"
• die Suche nach sich selbst vs. dem Ankommen
• die Melancholie als Kraft um Kunst zu schaffen
• seinen Kreativ-Prozess beim Kreieren neuer Songs
• seine musikalischen Vorbilder
• die Produktivität in Deutschland vs der Zeit am Meer
• wie er den Sprung wagte, seinem Traum zu folgen

uvm....

As varied as the conditions in the waters are also his interests on land, which is why he is engaged in lots of different projects: As an engaged Environmentalist he was one of the founders of what World Surfing Reserve, that helped to protect different coastlines, as well as Save the waves. He coaches different Surfers at his homespot Praia Grande with his school SurfAcademia and took part in several short films and documentaries.
