In this episode of Understanding Men, Luke and Fraser take a deep dive into therapy and it's various uses. Sharing their own experiences with varying types of therapy throughout their lives, they illustrate how effective it has been in helping them to live well rounded lives.
They talk about how other organisations and activities in their lives have been therapeutic, including attendances at Alcoholics Anonymous, meditation, sound baths and water therapy. They also investigate why therapy is more popular than ever, and look into the reasons why people may avoid or never begin therapeutic treatment.
Finally, they address situations where they believe overuse or misuse of therapy can do more harm than good, and highlight the importance of also having quality relationships with the people around you.
