Nurturing the human psyche to live your best self and overcome fear, adversity and trauma
A very unique and insightful interview with Richy Bennett that comes at a pivotal moment in time. We discuss social conditioning and how to break free from it. We delve into the mechanisms of the human psyche and how we can nurture, build and expand the human psyche to navigate life’s challenges, make sense of the world around us and make better decisions.
“In my research, humanity has been intentionally conditioned to be self-interested, apathetic, immature, indoctrinated to be compliant consumers…So how do we move out of these spaces? It’s hard.”
“One of my deep passions is surfing and during my intern years I began surfing very large waves, often solo and at dark, sharky outer reefs along the shipwreck coast of Victoria. I applied the strategies I was teaching my clients to master fears in their life to my fears in big waves and quickly achieved sound improvement in the potency of my mindset and my big wave riding ability.”
Richy’s teachings integrate mind, heart and soul into a holistic understanding of self.
Richy was the former senior psychologist at the NSW Institute and also known as the surf psychologist with a passion for riding very large waves to explore every dimension of the human psyche. He was a registered psychologist till June 2022, when he decided to voluntarily de-register to be free to refine his services.
He has been consciously immersed in nature and nurture of the human psyche for 30+ years.
Foundational to his practice is mastery of self, strong family and community and connection to nature.
