Sports Yoga with Victoria Turner

Thank you to the lovely Simone and Hayley for covering my classes over the Summer! I know my class is in good hands 🙏

When the boxer Muhammad Ali was asked, "What is the central part of your training? Is it jogging? Is it sparring?" His answer was: "The central part of my training isn't running or vitamins or punching the bags; the central part of my training is avoiding the nightclubs, the parties, and the girls. You want to know the truth? The central part of my training is being in bed by 9pm."

I, Timber Hawkeye, am ​obviously not a boxer, but when it comes to training the mind, my spiritual practice is more deeply supported by what​ I choose NOT to do than by what I do. That's because when we say "No" to one thing, we are actually saying "Yes" to something else. Each decision is a navigation choice, either out of alignment with the life we want, or toward​s it. Enlightenment and Alignment go hand-in-hand.

So, rather than thinking ​what it is you need to do more frequently or more intensely, I say contemplate what you can stop doing altogether (if only as an experiment for a few days), just to figure out if it's a healthy habit that you can easily stop ​a​nd go without, or if stopping gives you anxiety and intense craving, ​w​hich would mean it's probably a sign of dependence rather than support.

Remember: Our spiritual practice is more deeply supported by what we choose NOT to do than by what we do.

It’s going to be a slow yin style class tomorrow, with a bit of myofascial release, so if you feel the need to burn off some energy first, see if you can fit in a run or something to get the heart rate up during your day 👍 🧘‍♂️

Awesome feat of endurance and preparation!

After a 24-hour rain delay, the 40-year-old free soloist made easy work of the 1,667ft skyscraper. https://www.climbing.com/news/alex-honnold-biggest-urban-free-solo/?utm_content=comment&utm_medium=climbing&utm_source=facebook
