An apt reminder:

In a western society where mainstream pop culture hijacks all things good and evil, mindfulness too is being hijacked.  That is why I'm always stoked when I hear something about mindfulness which is legit.  I will remember this as live mindfully today, and come back to this when I'm despairingly frustrated in the future.



Life is a paradox,

anxiety and mindfulness are life.

Athletes stay dirty because USADA doesn't test for MGF

This morning, after reading USADA's praise toward the UFC for the new PED policy, I began working the google machine.  USADA said the same lies when MXsports hired them.  I will paraphrase: "we will test, and your sport will then be clean".

That seems so simple.

"If its too good to be true, its not" said my parents in an effort to guide my young self away from anything fraudulent.  That phrase is still ringing through my head.

I found this interesting article which introduced me to MGF.  Why haven't I heard of it?  I guess because its existence proves USADA is loosing the PED game, so everyone who doesn't want anyone else to look bad, doesn't speak of it.  Maybe that's why I couldn't find very much info about MGF.

Fuck USADA.

Mindfulness Guided Meditation - 5 Minutes





I often enjoy short meditations throughout the day and found this one particularly helpful.  Considering the fact that I need to be stretching my ankles throughout the day in an effort to combat shin splints, this meditation is like that terrible metaphor "killing two birds with one stone".

I don't like motivational shit, so I don't like this post...

and I don't even really like this guy,
but that's probably because social anxiety makes people judgmental.
Paradoxically,
mediation makes people less socially anxious...
consequently
I'll end up liking douche-bags.
Fuck it.
I'm gonna press return while typing
a
lot
.
And by

'fuck it'

I mean
"written in quotation marks"
in a blog.

(also, a must listen talk)
in parentheses on the internet.
