Good Morning

Starting the day early has its own charm. Early mornings allow time to reflect on the previous day, draw out learning, and plan for the current day. This is why I love getting up early.

Yesterday, I had mentioned that I had a lot to do. I am happy that I could do everything that I set out to do. It did get late and was close to 3 a.m. by the time I went to sleep. The best part is that I still got up by 6 a.m. and was on with my work. As always, it was quite a fulfilling experience.

On the fitness side, with physical exercise over the last few days, I focused on the mind today. What best than to get on with meditation. I plan to do it twice today, once in the morning and the other in the afternoon.

What I have noticed is that if I feel sleepy in the afternoon. But the fun part is that if I meditate at that time, my sleep evaporates. I am not sure how that works, but it does. So, yeah, meditation seems to help alleviate sleep. I don’t mean the night sleep but the mid-day unnecessary one. My boundaries keep expanding with meditation, and that’s what keeps me happy about it.

Anyway, that’s it from me for now. I will see you all tomorrow.

Namaste.

Did You Know?

You must have heard of the one-hand pushup that Bruce Lee made famous in the 1970s, but did you know a Guinness acknowledged record for the same? Let’s find out what the record is all about.

Mahmoud Mohamed Ayoub of Egypt holds the record for the one-hand pushups with claps. So, the exercise is about doing a one-hand pushup and using the momentum to throw your body up and using the time to clap, and then getting back to balancing the body with one hand as you fall back on the floor.

Ayoub achieved 37 such pushups in one minute. That’s pretty neat if you ask me. I am sure Bruce Lee would be proud of him. 😊
