Ah, human nature. We respond faster to what’s already uncomfortable than to something we have to anticipate. The irony is that the calm moments are when you actually have the most leverage.
Most of the time, we think we need to be on high alert to make progress, but those calm moments are where the real magic happens. It’s like we’ve forgotten how to just sit and strategise for a bit.
Such a smart and necessary reminder that breath work helps fitness and preparedness! Thank you, Candice.
