Feeling Good!

 



You ever hear that Michael buble song, “Feeling Good”?

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Well, if you’re training on a regular basis, your training should do that for you too!

Now, that good feeling will take many forms…

Sometimes its all about testing yourself and embracing the suck… That feeling of accomplishment and confidence you get from running the gauntlet.

Other times, it’s a slower burn where you feel good because the training enriches you in a more balanced, sustained way.

That good feeling you get because you know you’re learning, growing and Keeping Going.

Also that good feeling because you are connecting with some great people and together you are sharing this journey.

It’s Not an Accident…

I don’t think it’s an accident that there are so many of these old ‘masters’ who are still kicking it and enjoying life out there. 

Doesn’t matter what discipline… as long as its good, sustainable, and balanced. I’ve met so many of them from all walks of life, men and women who not only enjoy their training, but have wisdom to share about living a clear, confident, joyful life.

How About You!?

Is your training helping you to protect yourself and those around you in a deeper, broader way than simply physical defense?

If it’s not, it should be…

The Path & the Process…

If you would like more skills in this pursuit of becoming a better Protector, now’s your chance to join me and others.

I created a new PeaceWalker Network for all of us to connect and help each other along the way.

Go out there and make it a great day and…

Keep Going,

An Uncomfortable Situation

  Funny pic (and movie) about a not so funny situation… In training as in Life, it’s better to treat people with dignity and respect. However… What does that look like in the moment? Being that I’m teaching a Women’s Assault Prevention and Response Workshop this weekend - it’s probably a good time to talk about… Uncomfortable Situations Let’s talk about training at the academy for a minute… We run open co-ed classes at the local academy. What does that mean? Men and women train together, but we don’t stop there. People of different skill levels, backgrounds, ethnicities, sexual orientations, careers, religious beliefs, political affiliations, ages, injuries, pre-existing conditions, life experience, training expectations etc. etc. train together! We ALL work together! Overall, I think it’s better this way. Of course sometimes there’s static, you know, conflicts, and misunderstanding. When something happens, most of the time it’s just that, a misunderstanding… Sometimes people simply do

The Shot Heard Around the World

Even though many could see where all of this division and hatred in our country was leading to, when we witness the actual violence, realty once again floods in and has a way of shattering the comfort of our complacency, if only until the next headline. Some may find all of this shocking, others may see it simply validating their own fears. Regardless, of your political views, we have to take into account what this level of violence can do not only to the former President and his family, but what does to the state of our entire Nation. Yesterday as news broke of former President Donald Trump being shot, I can’t say that I was entirely surprised. Saddened, but not surprised. Regardless of your political stance, this act of violence is a dark reminder of the dangerous consequences of a society steeped in hate and division. Our collective heartbreak should not be about politics, but about the division and hatred that fuels this erosion of our humanity. We live in a time where traditional

Cutting Through the Static

  Me and the crew at Venue 3 Two after a PeaceWalker Conflict Communication Workshop Remember in the old days when you used to listen to the radio on a road trip? No, not digital or streaming. I’m talking about old school FM radio. When you’re putting some miles on and crossing state lines. The radio stations you listen to don’t broadcast far enough for your entire trip, so you have to channel surf to find new channels as you move on down the road. You continue to push the search button until you hear a song in the genre that you want so you can lock in a desirable station for a spell. Sometimes you’re listening to a song you really like but the station is fading… The static starts feint, almost imperceptible, than grows in intensity to the degree that you can no longer ignore it. If you really like the song, you try to hang on as long as you can, listening to the tune through the white noise and times it cuts out completely, hoping to hear as much of the song as you can before the sta
