Get Busy Living
Okay folks, it’s time to get busy living. We all had a tough year. Normally around this time, as we proclaim our resolutions, many gyms and fitness studios, Mind the Mat alike, launch “challenges” to create a sense of community and to motivate people to work out. I don’t know about you, but I’m kind of done with challenges. This year has been enough of a challenge. Plus, challenges breed competition, rivalry, and exclusion. After this year, aren’t we all done with that?Hey, if you want to compete, let’s go play volleyball, let’s schedule a tennis match, or a game of Spades; I am all for friendly competition. But your health should not be a contest. Your health and happiness are a lifestyle. As a team, we are going to walk into 2021 with our eyes on a positive lifestyle that we can commit to for years to come.In a tumultuous time, people have truly shown themselves. Some have been bright lights and have made heroic sacrifices. Some have shown an uglier side that continues to shock us. My question for you is…
In 2021, how do YOU want to show up?
Let’s formulate a plan. I am launching a reset to do just that. Instead of calling this reset a “challenge” or a “resolution,” we will call this an Activation:
Get it Done in 21
I’ve been thinking about this activation for quite some time but was recently inspired by this podcast interview on Hidden Brain: Minimizing Pain, Maximizing Joy. After listening to William Irvine, this take-home had the greatest impact for me: Bad things are going to happen in life; it’s how we handle them that matters. Any damage comes from our reaction to the event.We will explore this concept together in our first session.How much does this 2021 Activation cost? For Mind the Mat members, the price is: your full commitment. Isn’t that harder than dropping some bitcoin as a sign of your participation? Members, sign up here. New people, yes, you are invited! You can either join as a member (click here for details) or join for just the month of January, including the activation (click here for details).My commitment to you:Guidance on where to start within MtM’s awesome and massive scheduleWeekly facilitated connections and discussions, virtual of coursePhysical Therapy advice and education in a group settingJoyPainSunshineRainWe are excited to partner with Penny Post for journaling supplies and an add-on bullet journal workshop together after we’ve experienced the 2021 activation together!2021 here we come... let’s lift each other up every step of the way.
