Strength, yoga and Swedish Hara-Kiri

A week has passed, and this is my headline for the current week. I am working on getting into better shape. Slowly. Previously, I have focused a lot on cardiac work-out. I somehow like to have my adrenaline going, and I still do. However, muscles help you to keep a good posture. Therefore, I have started to put on some more weight. Just a little to challenge my muscles. The lactic acid tickles the nerves in my muscles. Step by step, I am improving.

Yesterday, I went for some yoga. Very good since I really need some stretch. Some people say that it is important to stretch after work-out, and some people say it is not necessary. I prefer stretching but sometimes there is not enough time for stretching. Yoga is very difficult and tough. I like it very much since there is a position called the dog pose. And you know that I love dogs. I am very interested in breathing techniques such as using your nose properly when inhaling and exhaling. A balancing act between your sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. However, I got very tired and realized that I need to focus more on stretching and yoga. Breathing does have an impact on how you feel and experience your body.

When I go for a workout I like the music as well. Lately, there has been a song that I couldn´t find. I liked the whistling very much. Couldn´t stop thinking about it. Surprisingly, I found it when watching the movie Top gun: Maverick, and of course, I share the song since you probably would like to know the tune.

Ending this week´s writing by saying that I feel sorry for the police who lost his life. From what I understand, he had no support and was alone with a lot of pressure. No matter what he did, human life is extinguished.

Chilly today

Today was such a cold day. Days are definitely getting brighter but it was so chilly. I was close to staying at home, but I went for my usual exercise. Beach 2023 is so far away. But at the same time so close. The little poem below is an essence from one of those beautiful days. I love the ocean since it represents freedom for me.

I started to search for a summer photo to get some energy from, but right now my life is a lot about having good food. Especially healthy food. Inflation is present, and in addition, I couldn’t find bell pepper in my usual grocery store. The shelves were empty, and it has never happened before. I did find Swedish apples which reminded me of summer. To think of the upcoming summer, I share a photo of fresh fruit. Fresh and tasty.

East, West and poetry

Yes, it is a balancing act between America and Asia. A Chinese spy balloon, crossing the USA, was recently shut down by the Americans. From what altitude, over the USA, is air no longer American? Almost a philosophical question. When is air considered international? In times like these, China should understand that Pentagon was going to react. Ballons crossed during the Trump era, but no war was going on at that time.

Right now, I am a little worried about Sweden´s weak reaction to the burning of the Koran. This could lead to terror attacks. There have been terror attacks in Stockholm, and I hope there is some kind of civilian and military disaster response. And all the shootings going on in Sweden where very young people are involved in serious crimes. The Swedish military has already started to cooperate with the Swedish police, but why not show this in practice? I would like to see something similar to French civilian defense.

It is Monday, and I couldn´t stop myself from writing about society, simply because we need more initiative in practice from politicians. Personally, I have been spending time on training. And also some swimming. To sum up the latest posts I would like to end this evening’s writing by sharing one of my favorite poems. Inspired by the ocean.

Stay safe 🐾
