Mind Body Unlock
Hey fam, literally just got done doing my second day of module 1 of Stable and I had a huge unlock for myself that I felt called to share. I was doing the sitting portion and I was having trouble staying on without tapping the floor every 2 seconds or so. I continued with it and then I went into sitting onto my hamstrings with my torso bent forward. I could hold that position for a few seconds more but still woul continue tapping. Then the aha moment came to my mind! I heard a voice say “Trust”. Immediately after hearing that voice I could feel myself trust my body. All of a sudden I was staying on without tapping for over 10 seconds. It was such a “eureka” for me! I could feel my logical mind take a back seat and surrender to the innate intelligence of my body and allow it to respond and react on its own without me trying to hikack it. I just hopped on the ball again after typing that above and though I didn’t time it, I stayed on the ball without touching the ground for about a full minute. I’m in such a high right now! Not because of the physical gains but because of the profound mind body connedction I just experienced. So grateful to have found this and looking forward to more breakthroughs and unlocks!! Cheers to everyone!

Trust is a great term to use - the shakes are the mind convincing the body of the connections it does not believe are there and to trust the uncertainty
GRIP CONDITIONING SESSION (new vid)
Hey all! 👋🏼 My new Course 'SWINGS N SPRINGS' is coming together nicely, and for part of the SWINGS Module I thought it important to add some Grip and Shoulder Conditioning to prepare everyone for the joy of Swinging that is to come 🐒 I plan to have the full course ready by early October but as I just finished this specific video today (fresh of the press) it gives you all a chance to start training your shoulders and fingertips 💪 Please give it a go sometime in the next few days. Let me know how you find it (the good the bad the ugly) feel free to film movements and send them me for feedback. Share in the telegram group etc. OUSS 👊 Tim

Looking forward to this For years I have wanted to be able to swing and traverse and haven't found a logical way to progress grip to a consistent level Thank you
QOTW – How do you get good SLEEP?
I'm back from wild camping and sleeping in my Van in Scotland (where I slept pretty well the whole time) and I want to continue this discussion around sleep. I know you are all fellow seekers and explorers so I want to know what are your sleep habits – the do's and don'ts that you feel affect your sleep the most for better or worse? How does light and noise affect your sleep, do you want white noise or have to have silence? Do you have to have blackout windows? Do you always avoid eating 2-4 hours before bed? Avoid stimulants past 2pm? Do you use blue light blocking glasses and red lights in the evening? Off phone by 8pm? Do you use mouth tape? Heavy blanket? Head facing North? Keep a pee jar? What has had the biggest impact on your sleep? Please share with the group! P.S. Live Chat is on Thursday 3rd August. See you there. Tim

I’ve been tracking my sleep, using an Ōura Ring for the past six years and I’ve certainly tried many different things to see if I can improve my sleep. Of significant benefit are blue light regulation so early in the morning, more blue light than after sunset, and try and synchronise with some local circadian sunset, sunrise times. Sitting out at sunset, then going to bed, massively reduces sleep, latency issues and I have a much greater quality of sleep cycles When I’m sleeping outdoors camping, I have some significant shift in Deep Sleep quality, despite perhaps the duration being less as the nights in the summer are often shorter than those in the winter Making the room as dark, as cool as possible have been very beneficial. I found no difference with weighted blankets cooling mattresses or sleep sounds. I’ve tried different sleep postures different pillows the 14° incline that is purported to be of benefit lying on your back. I found difficult and disrupted my sleep despite trying it for around four weeks. Taping works when tolerated but can have a certain anxiety / benefit battle to start with - personally I find sleep posture, myofascial and Breathwork had replaced the need to tape Side lying on your left reportedly has benefits on glymphatic drainage and write sidelined has benefits at promoting parasympathetic nervous system activity through the vagal nerve Reducing caffeine, definitely as a benefit, more on the quality of sleep, rather than amount so better rem quality when either completely cutting caffeine or reducing it after 2 pm Eating close to bedtime again, has a influence on resting heart rate, so I try and aim for this to be at least three hours before I go to sleep Alcohol has a huge influence- and again, I’ve tried this so personally three units and above will affect my sleep quality heart rate variability for the next two days. Supplement wise I’ve tried melatonin which when I’m desperate is a good go to book can often lead to circadian hangovers as I like to terminate affecting my sleep quality for the next few days. I’ve tried GABA I’ve tried CBD I’ve tried a magnesium Complex.

I found that with fasting in a very short window it was if my brain was waking me up to eat. A small amount of MCT at bedtime did help
QOTW: FOOTWEAR – How often do you wear 'barefoot' shoes?
What's your current practice with footwear.. 👣 Do you only ever wear 'barefoot' shoes, do you mix it up, or do you never wear them? Also please share something of your experience with footwear and/or some of your reasoning for doing it the way you do. No judgement, no right or wrong, just curious how you do footwear!

I am barefoot around the house and garden, I wear Vibram Furoshiki's at work and Earthrunners if i'm going further a field. If i'm running less than 10km i'll wear Merrell Vaporgloves but distance running (which I have stopped as it bored me) I was wearing Nike Pegasus.
