A You Inside of You!

There is a you inside of you!

I think of this as untapped potential. It is both Internal and external.

My blogging throughout the summer has been connecting with and bringing my internal 'you' to the surface. And everything I'm discovering and learning this year in Tai chi and as I work on my forms, consistently point me in the direction of my internal energies. The synchronicity of lessons being presented to me and how everything is connecting continues to surprise and delight,

Kung Fu isn't just technique or performance. It's rhythm, discipline, and presence.

It's moving with awareness, eating with gratitude, breathing with intention.
It's the art of aligning your body, mind, and daily life.
It's waking up early even when it's cold.
Kung Fu is not something you do.
It's something you ARE.

So how do we get to this state of being? How de we develop our internal 'you'?

BLOG!

This can be both simple and complex.

Pen, paper, keyboard or microphone - these are the easy components required to get started. The difficulty afterwards lies in the effort, reflection and intent required for each blog. Discipline is then needed to create a pattern of regular weekly blogging. At some point you will then find yourself becoming insightful more and more often as mindfulness and awareness increases. This is where we start to awaken and exercise our inner 'you' and evolve as human beings and martial artists.
