I think it's finally time for a sabbatical
    #19229716 - 12/05/13 12:38 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

From exercise.
Over the past decade I've worked out religiously.

From a 140 pound 14 year old to a 225 pound 21 year old bodybuilder to a 170ish pound 24 year old cardio machine...It sickens me.
This cycle of self-hatred has brought me nothing but egotistical pride and a disconnect of body/mind.

I've had enough for the time being. :sad:

This post is my farewell reminder to the gym.

I am no longer identified by my body, but my mind.

Namaste :heart:

Alright man, i get you but it sounds like youve been working out for the wrong reasons. I fell into that trap too and almost ended up a mighty mouse. That being said you dont have to give up exercise, just find something that you really like to do that gets you moving.

For me its jiujitsu and boxing. It gets me moving and in shape, keeps me grounded physically and mentally (ass-kickings ground you like no other) and its fun as hell.

Also the body and mind are one. There's no shame in caring for your vessel even if that means lifting some weight at the gym, its all about intention. Caring for your body will help your mind too.

But it does seem like you had an unhealthy relationship with your body and its good that your putting a stop to that. You should still get some movement in for good health though. Find something you like to do, there's so much out there outside the gym that have benifits beyond simply lifting weight....mountain biking, surfing, hiking, walking...idk, find your niche.

...Also please dont turn into one of those lame spiritual pseudo-buddhists, you know what I'm talking about. Buddha didn't give a shit if you shaved your head and wore funny robes and walked around saying namaste.  Thats more culture than what buddha was talking about. Everyones path is different and whatever you chose to do is fine as long as you develop compassion and undestanding for those around you.

Imo that stereotypical buddhist monk shit is probably the opposite of what buddha would want you to do. All the answers are inside yourself, but you may end up a far cry from your image of a peaceful spiritual person. Me, I'd look kind of like a thug on the street, but if i had to perscribe to any one belife system i'd call myself a buddhist

...sorry rambled on there, just tired of you freakin hippies!! (jk)
