In this episode of Stand Tall, we turn the spotlight on issues close to many people’s hearts: mental health, mindfulness, design quality, life post-pandemic… and how you can write a book – by accident!That by no means sums up my guest, Ben Channon, but does give you a quick overview of the many topics we cover in this fascinating interview with “The Mindful Architect”.Ben is an architect and Director at Ekkist, author, TEDx Speaker, WELL Accredited Professional, and co-founder of The Architects’ Mental Wellbeing Forum. His insights and experiences really resonated with me, and I hope they do with you too.Resources Ekkist: www.ekkist.co  WELL Certification: https://www.wellcertified.com/  Happy by Design: A Guide to Architecture and Mental Wellbeing: https://www.ribabooks.com/Happy-by-Design-A-Guide-to-Architecture-and-Mental-Wellbeing_9781859468784   The Happy Design Toolkit: Architecture for Better Mental Wellbeing: https://www.ribabooks.com/-4The-Happy-Design-Toolkit-Architecture-for-Better-Mental-Wellbeing_9781859469866   TEDx Cardiff University: One Simple Idea to improve mental wellbeing world-wide (“Desking explained”): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZ_qNV20IvY Paddy Pimblett, UFC London post fight interview (2:02): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtwJlQlGfxY  The Architects’ Mental Wellbeing Forum: https://www.amwf.co.uk/Twitter: @mindfularchi, @_ekkistInstagram: @benchannon, @_ekkistLinkedIn: ben-channon-04295267About Stand Tall Stand Tall with Rachel Bell is conversations about life, careers, and defining moments with people blazing a trail across property, architecture, engineering and construction.
