#dailypractice — Public Fediverse posts

I still wake early, still run, still practice yoga. The practices didn't change. My relationship to them did.

Holding it loosely. Trusting rhythm, not the plan.

What would shift for you if you held your practice a little more loosely?

I SEEM TO BE ACCIDENTALLY IMPROVING
DISCIPLINE WITHOUT MISERY 💎

This is slightly embarrassing.

After a lifetime of being suspicious of discipline, I appear to have developed some of my own.

I fast every day. I do breathwork every day. And now I write every day.

Usually I sit here with the AI, throw some half-formed idea at it, and we turn it around until I can see what I actually think. It is rather like having a thesaurus for ideas. Dangerous, obviously.

None of this feels like punishment, though. That is the strange bit.

There is discipline in it, but it feels freely chosen. Almost effortless. I no longer wake up thinking, “Oh my God, I have to improve myself again.” I just do what I do.

And something seems to be happening alongside it.

My clothes are getting looser. My body feels lighter. My flexibility has improved enormously.

And the breath has become something much larger than an exercise I do a few times a day. It is simply there. And the more consistently I return to it, the more there seems to be to discover.

Increasingly, during completely ordinary parts of the day, I notice space where there used to be noise. Peace. Silence. Not instead of physical life, but right in the middle of it.

Even the writing seems part of the same process.

Less clutter. Less excess. Less carrying around things I don’t need.

Apparently, one can become leaner in more ways than one.

I should add that I still have a little belly, so nobody needs to alert the authorities.

Perfection has once again been successfully avoided.
