Starve the Ego, Feed the Soul

Since starting crossfit this has a lot of meaning to me. I have never so blatantly exposed my physical weaknesses in front of a group of strangers before. I knew going in it would be challenging and physically my body would take time to adapt. I accepted that and could take that on.

My experience at crossfit took me way beyond a level of ego shattering that I thought it ever could or would. It not only exposes your total physical condition but also highly specific muscle imbalances, mobility limitations and ability to keep kickin it out after your body is completely exhausted.

And with this entire experience....I have felt drawn to take care of my whole body, mind and spirit again. I have started meditating, take time to check-in with how I am feeling during the day, take time to slow down and connect with people in my life who are important and just LAUGH and enjoy my day.

Strange how one thing leads to another...which leads to another and soon
I am all hippie again and embracing it.
