spirituality

As a fitness enthusiast, I wanted to speak on something I’ve been blessed to recently become entranced in:

Meditation.

My focus for years has always been MORE reps, MORE sets, HARDER contractions with AGGRESSIVE music BLASTING in my headphones… do we ever get a chance to let ourselves be still?

What started as taking a moment to rest after a run in the trails has become an integral part of my morning routine. I am enabled to

🧠Allow my thoughts to completely settle as opposed to bang against the inside of my cranium.

🫁Encourage the air to gently fill my lungs and oxygenate my tissues, rather than gasp for extra O2 despite having gone completely anaerobic.

🫀Feel my heart pumping blood which causes a gentle reverberation down in my fingertips and toes instead of doing jumping jacks in my ribcage while redlined on caffeine.

This dichotomous pace change of workout into meditation, while in nature, has been an enlightening practice- healing and expanding my body and mind. 🧘‍♂️

Love how you're finding balance between intense workouts and peaceful meditation! It's essential to give our minds and bodies a chance to rest and reset. Keep up the great work on your journey to holistic wellness! 🌿💪🧘‍♂️
