The land around our house is bursting with life and it’s been fun to integrate exercise into the spring activities around the garden. Last week, I mowed the grass for the first time and experienced how hilly our land truly is. As I pushed the lawn mower up the slope, I felt my heart rate and breathing quicken.
Great read Sam. It’s a message I’m trying to get across. I sometimes wonder if using the words ‘exercise’ and ‘fitness’ (given how loaded these terms are) help the cause, or detract from it.
Thanks Galo! the way in which these words have become loaded is something I wrestle with a lot. Personally, I've come to see my "exercise" as more of a "movement practice". Yet, I sense there's value in using these words as a way of meeting people exploring these containers and pointing toward others' ways of relating to them.
