Holistic wellbeing – A personal story by David Keller of Arizona
“Physically, I never felt very limber, but since training, I can bring my face to my knees as well as stretch my body farther than I used to. I have been living with back pain for years now due to a disc problem in my lower back. I have less pain now as well as more mobility. I didn’t realize how weak my lower body was until I started training. Through homework, as well as class, I can see improvements in my lower body strength and foundation.
Mentally, Iam now able to maintain focus for a more extended time than I have ever been. Although I am still erratic, there is improvement. I have learned more about Ki in my seven weeks of Body + Brain training, than all of my 2 ½ years of studying Aikido.
And spiritually, although I have only glimpsed my true self at times, I know that if I continue my training, I will eventually become my true self! What could be greater than that?”
