“External temples are nice yet, unneeded.
Complicated philosophies and religions attempt to organize Truth, when really, just our own sweat, our own stillness is our highest Truth.
Therefore, my church pew remains my daily sweat and my cathedral remains my daily stillness.”
Our fourth 2011 Kiva Talk for WF Members was a Go(o)d one. We dove deep as we explored the fourth Noble Fitness Discipline of Wholistic Fitness: Meditation!
The essence of group road cycling is riding “paceline.” For decades i’ve loved what happens when i am in a Club Ride or in a race and the chosen or evolved Leader of the group (sometimes even myself!) puts his hand up in the air in swirly-q motion which means to all the riders, “Okay guys, let’s paceline!” Pacelining allows cyclists to travel at least 30% faster with less effort while providing a scintillating social experience for new riders and the seasoned cyclists equivalent to ‘aerobic therapy.’ Also, pacelining is a foundation of racing. Like everything in life that is genuinely worthwhile, pacelines do have some inherent danger.
In tonight’s Member-Only Kiva Talk we’ll explore the 4th Noble Fitness Discipline of WF: Meditation!
Dear Steve:
I recently came across your website/work. I am very interested in becoming a fitness and movement instructor/mentor but am not quite sure how to begin.
I would like for my work and training to be based in the principles of wellness and awareness, a connection with body, spirit and world…
Ultra Early Bird Reservations to attend the Asea National Conference ends tonight for only $69…
plus, get rooms at the COSMOPOLITAN for as little as $139…bring the Clan and let’s meet in Vegas to learn and enjoy more about the most recent and perhaps most powerful arrow of all in the WF Nutritional Quiver; ASEA – “The Sacred Water of Wholistic Fitness™”
go to the below link right now seated in your most elegant posture and with your breath low and eyes soft…
surfing through the ‘quagmire of confusion’ when it comes to Nutrition – particularly ‘cleanses’ – can be a pretty rough ride unless you’ve got the proven, safe, effective Wisdom of WF as your Path. the thing about “going on ‘cleanses’ is that it sets you on a roller-coaster approach to cellular fitness which is precisely what you DON’T want to happen! what is needed is a consistent, appropriate BALANCE between cell cleansing and cell empowerment. EQUANIMITY of body, mind, and spirit begins with cell fitness. pic of ilg ‘Colorado Surfing’ by Kathy Faulstich
Most teachings are for Wholistic Fitness Members only. Some are complimentary.
These teachings are the "Rasas" or "sap" of Wholistic Fitness. You’ll find insights to ponder, student chi to keep your own chi topped off, and plenty of proven training techniques to test on your own body, mind, and spirit! Also, you’ll find my very popular Race Reports, and news of our Sangha’s (community’s) latest transpersonal fitness adventures!
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.
Note: We'll be fixing broken image links, and cleaning up the categorization of archived posts, over time.
