Episode 32: Swiss 8 Mini Series: Tristan Rose of Blind Tiger Yoga

Send us a text


This episode is not for the faint of heart.

Tristan and I served in the Australian Army together for many
years, and we have a long history...some of which includes some
of his darkest days, where he was at the point of no
return.

In this episode, we round out the Swiss 8 Mini Series, as well as
the protocols and principles that he has implemented along the
way, to dig himself out of the deep dark hole that is anxiety,
depression and PTSD.

Tristan is the founder of Blind Tiger Yoga, and has taught his no
bullshit style of yin based yoga, mindfulness and meditation to
over 10,000 veterans and first-responders, as an alternate
therapy for anxiety, depression and PTSD, not just as an
intervention, but as a preventative measure to manage the
mind...myself included.

In fact, Tristan is the mastermind behind the Australian
government providing a partial grant to educate and certify a
dozen Australian Army Veterans in his style of yoga, to be taught
to each individuals network. This initiative was provided to aid
in addressing the mental health implications that war-fighting
soldiers face when discharging from the Military, and trying to
re-integrate back into a civilian population that, for the most
part, does not uphold the same standards and professionalism that
these soldiers are used to...which usually makes for a difficult
transition.

He is a pioneer in his field, and coaches from not only a
scientific standpoint, but through lived experience.

Swiss 8 is a proactive mental health model designed to provide
the tools required to deliver high-quality content around their 8

of the principles, and book-ending the series with an interview
with Tristan Rose of Blind Tiger Yoga.

The Western world is in the middle of a mental health crisis, and

"I shouldn’t be in the position I am right now."


The odds were stacked against me:


Poor family on welfare, eldest of 6 kids, parents didn’t work,
abusive step-dad, no electricity or running water for a 6 years
period of my life


Caught up with the wrong crowd, stealing, drugs, skipping
school


At 14 years old, I sat on a bus for 3 days with $50 in my
pocket, to travel to the next State over West, to begin a new
life in the workforce - 2000

14 - 20: I grew up and learned how to become a man through work
and rugby
20 - 26: I lived, trained and fought as a professional soldier,
at a high level
26 - 32: I became a personal trainer, after failing in my pursuit
to become a firefighter
32 - 38: I worked with, and won world titles with some of the
best athletes on the planet, as their strength and conditioning
coach
38+: The next evolution begins
