The Taking Control Newsletter
Honest, practical ideas for your Body, Mind and Soul
Every newsletter comes back to one idea: you’re far more powerful than you realise, once you stop outsourcing responsibility for your life and start consciously taking part in your own development. Written by Marc Edwards, free, and easy to leave whenever you like.
What to Expect
Each edition draws on over 35 years on the mats and more than 25 years of coaching and educating, across the three layers of the Taking Control framework. Sometimes it’s practical, a habit to try or a myth to drop. Sometimes it goes deeper. It’s always honest, and it’s never fluff.
Practical ideas you can use
Training, nutrition, sleep and recovery, explained in plain language, with the science behind it and something you can actually do this week.
The deeper work
Mindset, self-awareness and purpose, drawing on the A.R.T. process and the Mind and Soul layers of the framework.
First to know
Be the first to hear about new courses, the book, retreats and the next Mentorship cohort.
