Good morning guys. Just realised I never properly introduced myself to Nostr. WTF! 😄🙄
If you wanna follow me I live in Cornwall UK, I’m a beach bum/lazy surfer, I work in mental health care, I generally like to post Tai Chi and spiritual related things, some jokey political memes also and I’m learning about bitcoin and lightning network and could do with advice on the technical side - setting up nodes etc. cheers. ⚡️🙏

Thanks so much for the zap! 😊⚡️🙏
I turned off the alerts on my phone beforehand however I was in the supermarket when other people’s phones started buzzing. There were a few bemused looks around. 😄
Whoa dude that’s generous! ⚡️🙏

Bit dreary this morning…..and I’ve run out of decent coffee. 😩
A trip into town might be in order. ☕️☕️😎

Why move slowly in Tai Chi? 🤔
Well the slow movement can be far more challenging. It places more strain on the body and mind forcing the practitioner to feel every inch of where he holds tension in his body.
When the discomfort becomes too much he must find ‘sung’ and release that tension. Sung and Ting are the two primary skills being cultivated.
Imaging doing a set of ten squats. Now do them at quarter speed feeling every tiny part of the movement. Do not allow the mind to dissociate, stay fully present however uncomfortable that is.
Over time the body becomes stronger and more released, more robust and flexible. The mind becomes calmer under pressure.
Through many repetitions the movements will become more fluid but maintain the power that was built in the slow practice. 🙏

Thanks man. Appreciate it. 😎🚀
So my slightly strange journey into Bitcoin started in 2012. Quick disclaimer- I didn’t make it rich. 🙄
Essentially what happened was that I got into Bitcoin and then Litecoin and inadvertently ended up running a Bitcoin node but really had no idea what I was doing.
I had technical problems and computer issues, lost my LTC and ended up spending my BTC on gift cards but can’t for the life of me remember what i spent those on! 😩
I then left the space entirely and didn’t get back in until 2021 during the bull market. I played around with some shit coins but didn’t really get orange pilled until early 2022. 🍊🌅
The crazy thing is that despite all my time wasting we’re still early! Mass adoption is around the corner and bitcoin is really the only serious option as money. ⚡️😎🙏

Morning Nostr. 🌅
It’s overcast here in Cornwall UK.
However nearly time for coffee so that will perk me up. ☕️☕️🙂
So what is Tai Chi really about? 🤔Depends who you ask.
For me it’s similar to a daily meditation. The benefits are hard to articulate but felt profoundly in the mind and body.
As I got older I focused more on fundamentals such as opening the body, releasing and stretching all of the muscles and soft tissues which cultivates quite incredible change to one’s being.
‘Sung’ translated roughly as releasing or letting go is the key and changed the way I saw the art. Paradoxically it also improved dramatically the other martial arts I was practicing but that’s another post.
The practitioner in the photo is Damo Mitchell. #TaiChi #grownostr #plebchain 💚🌅😊
