On my runs I have been very focused on what my body is doing. I have been learning about body sensing, body form and learning new techniques. All this to help prevent injuries. It takes a lot of mental focus and I was beginning to wonder if I really wanted to continue on with the program. My walk and runs have always been out letting my mind go, let it do what ever it wanted, in fact I had my best conversations with the nicotine monster on my walks. I wanted that “mind freedom” back badly. I had to make a decision. Do I take my “mind freedom” back or do I stay on the program. My decision to remain on the program of course was the right decision. My “mind freedom” will be back when I have learned what I need to do without constantly thinking about what I need to do and I will then only occasionally have to check in with my self on how I am doing.
In the past couple of days I got a taste of my “mind freedom” again. My body is learning, it is doing what it needs to do. I let my mind go, it felt good. My run is feeling good I am getting there, I am on my way.
Stay with the program. Do what is right, do what you need to do for your health, keep going forward. Do not let that cigarette control you. Now get on your way and just do it so you can start feeling the “good”. It is there waiting for you, go get it.
