For about 6 months now I have been taking kickboxing up at 700 fitness in Sewell, and every time I get in front of that bag it's a war between me and the dragon. AKA my ego mind. I battle with tears almost streaming down my face because I can not get the hits right, to extreme excitement when I see that my kicks have improved. Oh, and did I mention the infamous "everyone else is better than me, I suck...why can't I get this right, look at her arms they are ao much more sculpted than mine"...anyway, you get the point. Feelings of being less than are just the egos trick to hiding how magnificent you really are.
Today was different. Today I chose to love myself instead. As soon as I got out of my head and into my heart, all of my punches flowed and things started to get a lot easier. Letting go of having to be "perfect" (the total death of me) is so much more fun! I started to dance while I was punching and went to the beat of the music. So why don't you just let it go and dance to the music in your head? I know I'm crazy, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I triple dog dare you to dive deep into your crazy and see what you can find :]
Life is just a game, full of experiences and lessons. Are you ready to be the student?
