Dewa crankin’ over the ‘see-saw’ obstacle on the DEVO Kids Course during the recent US PRO CHALLENGE festival…spotted by ilg, though she didn’t need it…my only coaching counsel to my 4 year-old is the same as what i was telling myself a hundred times today during my own mountain bike workout: “Focus on where you want your bike to go!”
have you ever been sooo exhausted from such a fun and fitness-filled family vacation that you need ANOTHER vacation just to recover?!? just back from an AMAZINGLY BLESSED 5 days of scintillating Southwest Wholistic Fitness Family fun…full story plus Dharma c(om)ing only to Members at: www.WholisticFitness.com
I suppose it’s the sanest part of me that naturally gravitates toward these serrated skylines of granite, sandstone and sun-splintered early morning rapids and ripples. Perhaps the most redeeming quality that can be associated with this incarnation known as ‘ilg’ is that which has been undeniably attuned with Sacred Appreciation to the whirring symphony of hummingbirds, aspens quaking, and splashes of trout surfacing through snowmelt waters…
Congratulations Dewachen Catherine Ilg for performing soooo amazingly well at PreSchool! Having never been to DayCare and with only a handful of babysitting hours in your life, you really stepped up BIG TIME to your first school year (even if it was only 3 half-days per week!)…
Today – amazingly enough – marks the one-week out from perhaps my most special of all my three Sacred Sweat Pilgrimages of WF; the Iron Horse Bicycle Classic…at age 50 (which i turn during the 3-Day Race) ilg can BARELY BELIEVE how long, how treasured, how spiritually scintillating my humble, sweat-contingent life has been and thus remains…enjoy, be inspired…cuz, truly, your feeble coach really, really digs deep into every physiologic and psychologic realm to bring forth for you what remains the most unique, effective Path of Self Transformation through personal fitness that has c(om)e to grace Kali Yuga…Blessed Be All…
remember the touch of your Daddy’s strong hand upon you when you were 4? the comfort? the Release into the Realization that you are Unconditionally Loved?!?
Conscious Parenting…
1) Let Go Of Everything (you want)
2) Drop Into Everything (she wants)
3) Know that you are burning off selfish Karma by losing money, losing sense of (egoic) self, losing your mind, losing every-thing, while gaining that which is most imperative: another Soul’s nurturing by your devoted Presence…no matter what…
Any being who aspires to Rise Higher…
and stays steadfast, determined, and focused
shall attain the siddhis..the yogic powers which bring individuated inSight
calibrated by the Divine
to keep our Awakening and our Enlightenment potentiation on track…

You have access to thousands of posts going all the way back to 2002. The Archives makes for ideal Svadhyaya, and if you don’t know what that important term means ... all the more reason to dive into these amazing WF Scriptural Recordings!
Checking out one or two archived teachings every day or so is an AMAZINGLY EFFECTIVE way to stay connected with your Tribe AND maintain consistency and motivation in what matters most: your own practice.
