Meditation

I've learned to love weight training. I wish I had discovered years before I did. It's a wonderful hypnotic, repetitive behavior that requires deep contemplation. I've learned that it has very little to do with manipulating objects in physical space but everything to do with looking deep inside one's self and learning to merge the self with the physical body.

"How about you? Have you ever found an activity that connected you with your body? How was your first experience with this? Was it therapeutic for you?"
