Chris & Jim chat to Emily Graves from The Living Project about our latest #ElvisEnergyExperiment where we've been getting into the outdoors to experience awe to see how it impacts our energy. The Living Project’s philosophy is that getting outside and spending time in nature is good for the soul. It inspires connection to self, other and the natural world of which we are a part.

We couldn’t be more excited about this month’s experiment, which is all about giving our energy a huge boost by singing. And we can’t think of a better partner for this experiment than the awesome James Sills.

Chris & Jim chat to Amanda Allan about our latest #ElvisEnergyExperiment where we've been testing the Daily Energy Routine to see how it impacts our energy. The Daily Energy Routine was created by Donna Eden, one of the world’s foremost Energy Medicine practitioners and teachers. Deceptively simple, it is a short routine of exercises that balances the bodies energies and gets them moving in optimum ways. The practice improves vitality, resilience, mental clarity, strengthens the immune system, reduces stress, and improves feeling of well-being and joy.

Some people just have it. When the spotlight turns on them, they shine. Whether it’s down the pub with friends, in a meeting, making a presentation or on stage at a conference, when they speak people become energised, engaged, and connected to them and their message.

We couldn’t be more excited about this month’s experiment, with the amazing team at The Living Project. We love with their philosophy that getting outside and spending time in nature is good for the soul. It inspires connection to self, other and the natural world of which we are a part.

Busyness is a drug and is as addictive as crack. When we're busy, we get caught up on a wave of dopamine that makes us feel excited, needed and productive. The nature of busyness is that when we are running from one thing to the next, we are rarely aware and therefore spend most of our time and energy doing the wrong stuff. It’s a terrible waste of life and talent. To break this addiction, you must know what the right stuff is.

Throughout 2023 we’ll be exploring our energy, how it affects us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. To help us to do this we’ve been hooking up with a series of experts who set us an experiment every month to help us discover a new way of managing our energy. To kick things off in January, we’re working with the amazing Amanda Allan and following her Eden Daily Energy Routine 28-day challenge!

We believe that Humans are not designed for business.‍ We’re designed to be hunter-gatherers roaming the savannah, not tied to our desks for 8 hours a day wired into tech.‍ Lots of the businesses we meet make the mistake of trying to fit in with business rather than making it fit them, and the cracks are there for all to see. One way we have found to make sure that business fits us, is to put people and the planet first, by becoming a B-Corp.

Chris & Jim chat to Joe Ryle from 4dayweek.co.uk about our latest #ElvisEnergyExperiment where we've been testing how a 4 day week impacts on our energy and makes everything becomes easier, more fun, and more successful.

None of my clients tell me they have too much time on their hands, and they just don't know what to do with it. They all seem to be chasing their tails. When I ask how they are, the most common response is “flat out”. They seem to all have the same singular ambition. How do I cram as much activity into my working day so I don’t drown?

“It has been one hell of a ride!” The consistent message I'm hearing from everybody about the last year (and obviously the one before). Uncertainty, hope, despair, frustration, celebration, freedom, restrictions have all been mixed into an exotic and heady brew that we swig from every day. The whole drama has been intoxicating. And now here we are again sipping from a pint of confusion.

When was the last time you looked at a map hopelessly trying to find out where you are? It used to be quite a common occurrence. If we had no map, we would find somebody and ask them. If there was nobody around, we’d just keep walking. We never panicked.

Chris & Jim chat to the wonderfully talented, Chef, Author and Food Writer, Gill Meller about our latest #ElvisEnergyExperiment where we've been creating food memories with those we hold dear as an incredible way to give our mental, emotional, and spiritual energy a huge boost.

Even though it's been many years since I experienced my first day back to school; the memory is still palpable. There was an incredible fizz in the air. Seeing friends for the first time since the summer break was a mixture of delicious excitement and brutal anxiety.

Chris and Jim catch-up with the fantastic Elena Anguita, Founder of the Spread Thanks Movement about our latest #ElvisEnergyExperiment where we've been exploring the impact spreading thanks has on our emotional and spiritual energy and look at how a renewed focus on gratitude can give us all a massive energetic boost.

We have been running workshops now at Elvis HQ in Lyme Regis for over 10 years. I love bringing people here. We have created an environment that feels less like work and more like life. With dogs and kids running around it feels more like home for everyone involved so we can all just relax and be ourselves.

There are absolutely no guarantees as to how any of it pans out and regardless of how good you are at planning and scheming; the world is beautifully designed to send surprises your way. And Hallelujah for that!

There is still a rather antiquated belief out there; that we should be optimising our time at every minute of our waking day. Since we only have so many hours at our disposal, we must work hard to make sure we are a raging success and all around us people will stoop and bow to our magnificence.

Our Elvis Energy Experiments are continuing into 2021, exploring our energy and how it affects us physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.

I was introduced to ‘love languages’ (there are 5 btw) by my wife when we started getting serious about life together. She revealed that hers was ‘Words of affirmation’ (if you’re interested, the others are ‘acts of service’, ‘receiving of gifts’, ‘quality time’ and ‘physical touch’) and that I was coming up short in that department.

I love creating you stuff. In fact, I live for it. The buzz of starting with a blank sheet of paper and finishing with something whole and complete is so deeply satisfying.

For many years I told my Clients with absolute passion that they are their time. My belief was quite simply that how we spend our time dictates the impact we create and the legacy that we leave behind. It was a very neat and pithy thing and it resonated well with those high up the tree. But I was wrong.

In 2021, we continue exploring our energy. How it affects us physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. We’ve hooked up with a series of experts who’ll set an experiment every month to help us discover a new way of managing our energy. Throughout April we’re going to be exploring the impact our spaces and environment has on our energy, and look at how a good old declutter can give us a massive boost.

On this months podcast, Chris and Jim chat to the brilliant Cara and Sam from ProNappers about the #ElvisEnergyExperiment we ran with them recently and how napping is a superpower we all have at our finger tips, but yet we don't always use.

On this months podcast, Chris and Jim chat to the awesome Kat Lewis, founder of creative writing consultancy With The Undertow about the #ElvisEnergyExperiment we ran with her recently and how creative writing is not only an opportunity to express ourselves creatively, but it can help us to process our emotions and even help us form stronger connections with those around us.

We're huge fans of mental health awareness week. It makes us think more about how we can look after ourselves, our loved ones and our colleagues with the challenges so many of us face.

We’re born to hunt. To roam the savannah, tracking down our prey or foraging for food. Our survival depended on it. As such we’re beautifully designed to move.

The chances of you being on this planet right now are so infinitesimally small; that you were just meant to be. Every little bit of you is just perfect for the life that you need to lead. You have all the resources, the creativity and the superpowers necessary to be extraordinary. You are lacking nothing.

Do you fancy a drink? I know a place called The Brink. D’you wanna go there? The opening line from a brilliant song, To The Brink by I am Kloot.

Covid-19 has created a unique planetary experience. Never before have we all shared such a loss of liberty, certainty and control. Although there has been an incredible loss of life; the magnitude of the emotional impact may never be truly realised.

Work can be all consuming. It places so many demands on our attention that it dominates our body, minds and souls. Not only do we have work that needs delivering but we also need to fit into the cultural system of our teams and our physical workplaces.

Anthony Bourdain was a chef, author, entrepreneur, and television star whose CNN travel show Parts Unknown (and his previous show on the Travel Channel, No Reservations) took us to places most of us have never been. The show was riveting, immersive television, and I for one always felt like I learned and experienced something new after watching each new episode.

Chris wrote C'mon Lady out of an interest in two things... Firstly, the creative process itself, figuring out what it would take to write, perform and record an original track. Secondly, he wanted to gain a deeper understanding of his daughter, who is a recording artist in her own right.
