Coach,

FaceBook has categorically changed the way we reConnect with our spiritual brothers and sister within our Karmic Loop…used to be we had to wait years, lifetimes, and Bardo’s to reVisit with our Soul Travelers…Facebook apparently shortcuts the Process and allows people like LeAnn and myself – both from the Warrior Caste – to reDiscover each other across miles and etheral planes!
So, up those seemingly endless, sky-high, snow-surrounded mountain passes, i cultivated the Witness Within. i practiced watching my effort -detached – without form watching the formfull. Basically? ilg just ‘watched ilg pedal up the mountain.’ This ‘witnessing’ technique is an ancient spiritual warrior tool for transforming suffering into mere effort. Suffering has emotional baggage, however pure Effort is Suffering without the emotional baggage.

Though some of our WF Techniques are often blow off as being ‘too simple,’ ilg assures you that even practicing brushing your teeth in yogi squat, using your Non-Dominant Hand while reciting the WF Lifestyle Principles into the Blessed Mantra, functions extremely well as an Inner Protector to the Outer Worldly demons of hurried pace. The following email is from a non-formal student back East…she recently returned to eating the SUNRIDER Whole Food Herbs after she realized that her body was breaking down due to her high-paced lifestyle….
