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

Image
  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 ...

What'd You Say?!

  You ever have a conversation with someone who really lifted your spirits? How about having a conversation with someone who’s a real downer?! We spend a lot of time talking to people. Matter of fact, talking is one of the most under rated and under trained aspects of protecting yourself. It’s much better if you can talk your way out of a bad situation, rather than having to resort to some form of physicality. This is why we spend so much time on sharing effective communication frameworks in the PeaceWalker course. But All of that Aside… When we think about communicating, we often just think about talking to other people. We forget how we talk to ourselves! You may have heard it called, “Self talk.” All day long we talk to ourselves. We carry on an inner dialogue in our heads that only we can hear. Unfortunately, this means it's very easy to be hard on ourselves. There's something about privacy which makes it easy to say the things you would never say out loud to another living...

Cracks in Your Foundation?!

Image
  Last night we had one of our weekly coaching calls for the PeaceWalker Evolution Course. What a great call! Rob and Jenn, a couple of the Level II - Momentum folks (people who graduated from Evolution last year and came back for the second Level.), were tasked to run the meeting as part of their training. I must say, they did a stand up job! The topic of discussion was building an Unshakable Foundation. WTH is that!? It’s basically the way you live. Your habits. What you do in your day to day life. How do you train your… Body  - Your physical health Mind  - What you’re filling your head with Mouth  - How you’re communicating Heart  - How you foster your relationships Why?! Without a solid foundation it’s difficult to remain balanced. When you are not balanced, it more difficult to stay calm, cool, and collected, (especially) under pressure. As I often say,  “You can’t hide crazy.” (It eventually comes out!) Regardless… You don’t have to be in the PeaceWal...
