Sweatin To The Oldies

Day six is Sunday fun-day. Brice chose Richard Simmons as an exercise today to lighten up the energy. I don’t mean to say that the exercise earlier in the week were heavy. But they were more focused. There’s nothing like dancing to lift the spirit. Richard Simmons is a perfect way to get you smiling while enjoying the “burn”. It’s also a way to learn to love the work for the sake of the work.

Brice reminds us of the Bhagavad Gita and the lesson we receive in that writing. That being, learning to love the work for the sake of the work not for the fruits of the labor. Richard Simmons “Sweatin To The Oldies” is a good example of how you can enjoy the work for the sake of the work.

We are on day six of the challenge, and learning how to address the pain that comes up. We are learning the the pain we experience through exercise, such as shoulder pain, knee pain or hip pain, is our body trying to tell us something. It is when we focus on the pain that we learn who we are. The pain we experience might be our bodies detoxing from old energy. I’ve talked in past posts about energy. We talked about how are bodies are nothing but energy. That energy can get blocked, trapped in our bodies causing dis-ease and discomfort. Exercise is one way to force that energy to come to come to the surface. It’s one way to work out the kinks so the energy can flow through the body the way in which it was meant.

We continue to work through this energy. Making note of it. Where do you feel the pain, how intense it is, and how long has it been affecting your mobility. It’s a never ending task.

The journal is a good way to keep track of this energy pattern. We still work to record our eating habits and write about how the challenge is affecting our daily life.
