Inside All of Us…
I experienced something a few weeks ago that reminded me of this recent pic of my dog ASH.
ASH was playing with this cute puppy and I noticed his play became more and more aggressive. The puppy was relentless and ASH was getting agitated. This pic surprised me! ASH is so sweet, but when pushed to his limit…the fangs came out!
I had a moment like this recently. It’s hard to reconcile once you’ve calmed down, how you may have reacted so impulsively hostile. Inside all of us in a reptilian receptor to stress…usually resulting in a flight or fight response. However, at Oak Park, we’ve practiced ways of coping with stress:
General Human Performance workouts
Yoga
Breath Work
Aerobic Capacity
Connecting with others
All of which have given me coping tools to use, in times of stress. I hope you are taking full advantage of the offerings at the gym…You may never know when you might need them!
