    This genetic foundation of our health and fitness explains Tripp is the reason why we should never compare ourselves to others in the gym or at the doctor’s surgery.

  • Last Longer, Rise Higher, Tantra for the Modern Man - a conversation with author Vajra Fatih Keçelioğlu
    Jul 23 2025

    This episode of Fit For My Age discusses adult themes. Please listen discreetly.

    Vajra Fatih Keçelioğlu is the author of Last Longer, Rise Higher, How to Take Over and Dominate in Bed, Tantra for the Modern Man.

    He is also a Tantra coachand the founder of the Integral Man Academy

    In this episode of the Abecederpodcast Fit For My Age Vajra explains to host Michael Millwardwhat Tantra is and how he got involved as a way of resolving his own problems.

    Although only 5% of Tantra texts relates to sexuality many people think that is only about sex. Most of the text relates to spirituality.

    Vajra explains how Tantra helped him to connect his spirituality and sexuality and resolve the challenges he was facing in his own romantic and sexual life.

    Michael and Vajra discuss how men often take little interest in their sexual and reproductive health, or notice how their bodies and specifically their penis, testis, erection and prostate, change as they age.

    Part of the challenge, says Vajra, is a culture that restricts masculinity and discussions of male health.

    Vajra says any man can achieve a greater connection between their spirituality and sexuality and build a stronger relationship with their partner, no matter how old they are.

  • Understanding Solution-Focused Therapy - a conversation with clinical hypnotherapist Keira Smith
    Jul 16 2025

    Keira Smith is a clinical Hypnotherapist and founder of Positive Change Hypnotherapy

    In this episode of the Abeceder podcast Fit For My Age Keira explains to host Michael Millward what solution-focused therapy is, and how the process works.

    In a wide-ranging discussion Keira describes what we know about how the brain works and how different situations and triggers prompt different responses, and different behaviours.

    One element of these responses is how they create the behaviours for how we manage our past. There shouldn’t necessarily be a problem, unless our way of managing our memories has a negative impact on how we deal with the present and our future.

    The process of solution-focused therapy helps to retrain the brain so that people can create a new way of thing that helps them to build their own solution for their future and to adapt that solution as times change.

    Ultimately, says Keira, solution-focused therapy is about rebuilding the confidence in individuals so that they can become advocates for themselves.
