Fear is a reaction... Courage is a decision...!

Hello dear friends. I'll use this post to track my progress in the 28-day meditation challenge, and also my fitness and wing chun training. Meditation challenge - Started yesterday with the videos, meditations and of course the mantras - Today continued with the meditations and mantras, and started putting together my 'manifesto'. It feels empowering to stop for a while and consciously think about what would make me happy, and what would make me feel as if my life is well-lived. - I'm excited to be doing this challenge with others in the community, as I know how helpful the momentum and shared accountability can be Health (target is 12k steps per day, and pull-ups and dips, increasing 1 each day) - 12,103 steps - 27 pull-ups and dips Wing Chun - Evening Fundamentals class in person at the One Tao Kung Fun academy Thought / insight for the day - Negative and positive thinking are both habits. The more either habit is ingrained, the less effort is needed to sustain it and the more natural it becomes.

Starting the meditation blueprint mastery for 28 days, very excited and will record reflections here. Participated in the August health challenge with the group and have never succeeded in losing so much weight in the past and feeling strong. Looking forward to experiencing the change that this month will bring and make it into a habit rather than challenge! Looking forward to reprogramming myself into a more peaceful and loving being. ❤️

I wanted to share a book that is dear to me. It came out last year and I see more and more here reading and wanting to improve their mind and body - I wanted to share this with you. It is called Arete. It's a Greek word. And it means to close the gap to where you are to where you can be via virtues. To flourish. It's all a rough translation. This book is the ultimate personal development book as it combined wisdom from so many sources and put it in one place. It's easy to read. It's valuable. It's worth it. It's about activating your heroic potential. And this is what we want.

I have a humble collection of crystals which I display on my "altar" 💖 I find that their energies help me heal and grow - physically, mentally and spiritually. I also try to incorporate simple rituals to cleanse and recharge them once in a while (like washing them over salt water from the ocean, or bathing them under the moonlight glow) ✨ What about you guys? Feel free to share why you've developed an interest to what you collect 😉
