In the Lion's den

sending love ... because i am moved to do so.

there's a type of meditation referred to as loving kindness. you can do it for others or for self. since meditation is the kind of thing that you can personalize and do in any way that fits, for me right now: it is a recitation of blessings.

i send you peace of mind and stillness of heart. i send you love. i send you forgiveness. i see you and accept you as you are. i honor you. i send you good health. i send you prosperity and abundance. i send you security. i send you courage and compassion. i send you love. i send you forgiveness. i see you and accept you as you are. i send you strength. and i send you softness. i send you tears of happiness and relief. i send you patience. i send you energy. i see you and accept you for who you are. I forgive you for the things you cannot forgive of yourself. I send you love.

Thank you daejamurrachan love is always much appreciated. This is the nicest thing that i heard (read) for a long time. You've bring back my faith in humanity. It's kinda weird (and beautiful) when someone from completely different part of the world gives you more love and cares about you more than someone you live with.
Once more thank you, and sending you love as well.

Done today:

~Avatar Upgrade: Card 7
-Berserker (LVL II, 2min rest)
Again I really wanted those 100 points. I'm really happy with my performance. This time I wouldn't be able to do LVL III, I was completely dead after LVL II.

After 7 Avatar Upgrade workouts I can say that I'm really surprised. So far I'm doing it on (mostly) LVL II & III. Initially I just wanted to survive this program, now I want to push hardest I can and take benefit from this.

Good night/day bees!

Done today:

~Avatar Upgrade: Card 8
-Watchtower (LVL III, 1min rest)
It was pretty nice (but kinda boring) active rest workout. Unfortunately it didn't felt like a proper stretching/balance workout (at least for me).

Soon I'll need to start EL (eat less) diet soon (maybe next month), because I started to be a bit too 'fatty'.

Good night/day bees!

Done today:

~Avatar Upgrade: Card 9
-Firewall Challenge (LVL II, 2min rest)
I didn't expect to do LVL II, because the weather was lovely today and I had to catch-up with digging and some other farm work.
Overall I enjoyed this one, it was quite 'short' (under 40 mins). Deep lunges were a bit odd and my push-ups sucked (barely 20 in one go).

Although tomorrow is Sunday I'll have some more field work. I need to make good use of nice weather, nobody knows how long it'll last.

Good night/day bees!

Done today:

~Daily Dares
-60 Seconds Raised Leg Hold +EC

-30 Full Bridges +EC

-2 Minutes Arm Scissors +EC

OK I haven't planned this. I wanted to continue with Avatar Upgrade, but I don't feel too good, I still feel weak and I have massive headache.
Well, better be safe than sorry. Right?

Good night/day bees!

Let's hope you'll be better soon, Matan. You've been doing a great job with Avatar Upgrade so far.
