Before Diana Nyad attempted her swim from Cuba to Florida, she spoke about mind over matter and how that's what would get her to the goal.
When she quit the swim, half way through, trembling and weak, dehydrated and more, she said "There's no mind over matter any more."
How do we approach our bodies? Do we push them around with our mental agenda, or do we form a partnership with them, letting them have equal say in our daily lives?
I've lived a long time of mind over matter and have found there are consequences, much as Diana Nyad has discovered. I am welcoming this time of learning to establish a balance.
Success? Some times each day but not consistently. Practice? Daily; it's the only way I know of to reach the desired result.
