Treating the Cause, Not the Symptoms

Kung fu has awakened me to many things in my life. One of the things that I can appreciate the most is the awareness of mind and body, mostly my mind. The connection between the mind and body is very complex, but when I came to realize the power of the mind....not understand....but realize, it has made me a lot more aware of how I can work with who I was/am and strive to become a more controlled individual.

Many times I have viewed my personal challenges the wrong way and attempted to correct the symptom and no the cause. Realizing and reassessing the occurrences which circulate my being has allowed me approach many things from a different angle. For that, it has allowed me to be more free mentally and approach certain things with reduced stress and aggravation . In turn, with better success.

I'm still a work in progress, but being more aware of my mind and its power is allowing me to approach life from a more controlled mind set.
