Thank you for sharing your insight on training the mind with discipline.
I love you Master Shi
Thank you for everything 🙏🏻
I remember tea appreciation day. Just like this video, you met Yes Theory, they are really good people. Love the whole idea of stretching outside your comfort zone.
I would love to do this 🙏🏼
"You can do whatever you want, just stay with it. And walk with it. With the ups and with the downs. But still stay along this road. Don't lose the goal." Wow, what an inspiring episode.
Quotes like this inspired many evil people.

Luke, you did great. i too struggle alot in social situations and if it were me, i would’ve stayed home and done nothing. you went and even got on camera, that’s huge! keep fighting buddy!

@@andyphan857 you are what you eat
This was very teachable to all of us that no matter life comes at you
You can conquer anything if you set your mind right. Thank you for this beautiful videos
Luke has been a UA-camr for a few years now, and even has a video of him interviewing the Seek Discomfort guys a couple of years ago.
I have a friend with Aspergers and most of the time he is struggling to leave his home because of his social anxiety. Of course everyone is different but the strength needed by Luke to appear on this Video, show himself to the world and go on this journey is absolutely incredible. Huge respect to him!
What an amazing story. Every word from the master was so powerful. Thank you for showing us your experience there.
Yeah this was special.
Kung Fu is all very spezial and ages well: ua-cam.com/video/KfJ9bA42ErY/v-deo.html

Could you give advise which one would be a recommendable Kalari Payattu master? That would be interesting aswell!
Maria’s breathing was that of a warrior, she’s clearly managed pain before.

Forgetting the fact that women has higher pain tolerance than men. 🩺
I've also noticed that. She was the most look calm here
I used to study Shaolin in my youth at a school that was reputed for being very hard (especially Hung ga training haha) - about 6 years from 12 to 18. I had to stop when I started studying after graduating high school as I couldn't physically make the classes anymore. I miss how strong my body was, but the lessons I learnt, the perseverance, and the mental fortitude to do something challenging before my mind has time to talk me out of it; how to motivate my classmates and myself to push through pain and suffering; these lessons have stayed with me and driven me through so many challenges in my life. And I made incredible friends. I will always praise my years in this discipline and would recommend it to anyone who has the opportunity to join a good school. Not to fight (as this drew most people)...but to learn where to start with self-mastery. 6 years changed me forever, for the better.
This was very cool.
Nice to hear this I also would like to join one and learn
currently enrolled in an online 1-year program. I have current responsibilities that don't allow me to go overseas, but I'm becoming familiar with the culture. One day i hope to immerse myself fully, if that's what the universe has in store for me.
Having been concerned about finances throughout my entire adulthood, it's captivating to observe this video and realize that one can achieve alot if goals are set right. Experiencing the freedom of not being preoccupied with the financial concerns that consumed me for numerous years is truly liberating. I suppose this is the result of putting in diligent effort for the future.
Remarkable observations! Handling and staying abreast of things can be quite daunting for newcomers like myself. Are you a seasoned investor, or do you employ a methodical approach to staying well-informed?
Since the inception of my business, I've maintained contact with a financial advisor. In the current cultural landscape, the difficulty lies in discerning the opportune moments to buy or sell when dealing with trending stocks. This process, while seemingly straightforward, is effectively managed by my advisor, who handles entry and exit orders for my portfolio. Over the span of just a little over a year, my portfolio has seen substantial growth, exceeding $750k.
"Stacey Lee Decker" serves as my advisor, bringing extensive qualifications and experience in the financial market. Her deep understanding of portfolio diversity positions her as an industry expert. I suggest delving into her credentials for further insight. With her considerable experience, she offers valuable guidance to anyone seeking to navigate the complexities of the financial market
I appreciate the information provided. After conducting my own research, it's evident that your advisor possesses significant skill and knowledge. I've reached out to her via email and scheduled a phone call. I'm impressed by her expertise, and I'm looking forward to our forthcoming discussion.
The "finding strangers in the street to do something weird" stuff is cool but I think Yes Theory really became masters at exploring other culture we dont hear a lot about and showing it with respect and humanity
Another amazing video.
For me it’s so mindblowing that Stefan was just a random stranger and now he’s here in every episode, and it’s sooo nice to see him so happy.
And now he is part of the official cast. Wow opportunities find people who grab it
Fate and destiny work their way around.
So i watched unknown all videos with stefan in it and i am thinking hes there since the beginning xD (new to yes theory)
This felt like an Avatar air bending training session- the movements of Shi Heng Yi are so graceful and yet so incredibly powerful
Inspiring. I haven't felt like caring about anything since my husband left me, but now I think I will get up and start again to learn who I am and what strengths I have. What an amazing teacher is Shi Heng Yi. Thanks so much for sharing this.
❤☯️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
It was beautiful. I really wish you had filmed several episodes.what is most beautiful and inspiring is not the difficult moves but what you guys go through and the mental barriers you have to conquer.
This is one of the most beautiful episodes I've seen! I would have never thought of doing a video with Shaolin monks but this man is an incredible spokesperson for the Shaolin way and Yes Theory. Well done team
There’s a guy who already does it. Lived as a monk for awhile
Yeah it’s sort of a masterpiece
Beautiful Video ❤️ I think the pandemic and the economic crisis have taught people how important multiple streams of income are, unfortunately having a job does not automatically mean financial security, I really appreciate the transparency and giving people a fighting chance in these difficult times
I agree with you 100%. Did you know that the unemployment rate increased significantly between 2021-2022. People became unemployed. We should not depend solely on wages and salary.
The delayed impact of the global interest rate spikes, steady erosion of consumer savings and post-COVID pent-up demand, and deeply troubling global geopolitical context will result in market declines and re-emergence of market volatility
If inflation slowed down but if it reverses as interest rates rise higher, I believe the sectors that have driven this rally should be vulnerable to sharp pullbacks.
I agree. High-yield dividend stocks come immediately to mind as they offer steady passive income streams at inflation-beating levels, for a certain return should these crazy markets turn south.
On the contrary those high yields don’t penultimately mean the equivalent amount in dollars will be disbursed, I will advice seeking counsel from a local broker, I myself work with a fiduciary in New York although I am in South Dakota.
I trained in a Shaolin school in China for three months a few years back! It's one of the most amazing experiences I've had. It breaks you not only physically but mentally, emotionally and energetically, and teaches you to go through it and come out on the other side. 100% recommend!
The stories you tell are so inspiring! Also shout out to the person who chooses the music arrangement for the storytelling. That’s what truly makes my heartstrings vibrate 🎶
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE HOW THE ICE MAN AND THE MONKS WOULD INTERACT!👀😅
This must be, the most beautiful episode you guys have given us. This is incredible, thank you guys so much!
OMG i only recently stumbled across Master Shi Heng Yi's teachings and have been watching and listening to him non-stop, so wild that now you just came out with this video with him! Thank you so much for going through and sharing this experience with us, I was actually hurting so much for you guys seeing the pain you had to go through! I hope you all grew and gained so much value from this experience with this amazingly wise master! Also, loved listening to Maria, she's onto something :)
that 25 minutes felt like 2 minutes. such an amazing masterpiece! the yes theory channel is really one of a kind! ❤
That video moved me so much! I had goosed bumps and wanted to cry the whole time! The music, the editing and of course the message were incredible! THANK YOU for this amazing inspiring story and congrats to you guys for going through this whole experience !! BLESSINGS TO YES THEORY !!!
I actually practiced shaolin kung fu for 4 or 5 years when I was a teen. I had 1h30 hours of training 3x a week and the first 45 minutes were just conditioning and strenght training. Basically, it was like a 45 minute non-stop hiit workout and then we had another 45 minutes to practice the techniques and do actual sparring. I was in my best physical condition back then. It was one of the most fundamental things I did in my early life that contributed a huge deal to my character and self-awareness, to building my confidence and to learn how to man up. I owe to my training sessions, my teachers and my mates the character I built during that time. It really builds character. Shoalin kung fu and psychoanalysis together made me grow and changed everything about me during those years.

Recently everyone's coming to Germany to visit the temple, I actually only live 4 hours away from it and really want to go too! My issues are just the financial aspect and wanting to compete in bodybuilding next season so I have to stick with my meals and training for a while. But I already included much of Shi Heng Yi's teachings into my mindset! He's amazing
Just visit us
This is EXACTLY the lesson I needed to listen to today. Thank you for this wonderful video and for sharing a bit about your journey.
I love what you guys do but two things I would suggest. 1. Include some older people on your travels. Many of the people you visit are much older than you and you learn from them and experience a great time but you never take anyone older with you. 2. You're seeking discomfort, you have pushed yourself outside of your comfort zone so many times yet you still turn up to something like this with "are we gonna die? I don't think I can do this!" It's like you haven't yet learned to embrace where you are and the situation you've put yourselves in. It also shows your immaturity, that you have yet to still learn from life. I started pushing myself to do things once I turned 40. Now, if I've put myself in a challenging situation, like wall climbing (I'm terrified of heights) I try and embrace it and not show my fear. I did it to myself, I put myself in that situation and what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Stood out there with the Sifu who says "you must stay the whole 20 minutes" you should be feeling confident "I can do this." That is truly seeking discomfort.
One of my favorite episodes you have ever made, found myself routing for you all!
I watched an interview with Master Shi on Anthony Padilla's. A lot of wisdom and wise words from him. I had a moment when I was rewatching a lot of K i l l Bill movie that I wanted to be a Master in all this ancient techniques but back then my pain tolerance was low :) Thank you for bringing us to another awesome adventure!
This was so expertly filmed. Kudos to you all for going through and sharing the experience so powerfully.
Keeping such a long take of the master at the end goes to show how powerful, important and true his speech was. This was the longest I can remember from all the videos in one go. Thanks for sharing it.
This video is what I needed. Hey Yes Theory, I'm a 17 year old guy that lives in the USA and I just wanted to tell you a little bit about myself and how you guys have changed my life.. I've always been in my own head and would slow myself down and almost always quit when doing something I loved. I've been struggle to find myself and who I'm meant to be to myself and others and your videos have opened my eyes to everything. I've binge watched every single video on Yes Theory, 4 times over, and even started to meditate. Now I'm starting to do things i never thought i could do and every single time i feel discomfort, i always tell myself that in that moment, i have to do it. I really appreciate the work you guys do and if it wasn't for you guys, I don't know where I would be. Thank You Yes Theory.
That makes me happy Bro, i am proud of you 🙏🙏
Delete every form of social media you have, get 8 hours, sleep, dont drink or smoke, try and eat well and your problems will literally go away all on their own.
@@toddjohnsoneveningnews8870easy to say, also no your problems don't magically disappear without the internet
Love that
@@MozartOfficialproblems won't disappear but you will be in a better mental state to tackle your problems without cluttering your mind with useless and time consuming social media content.
I love you guys, thank you for making such insightful videos.
This is just calm and beautiful, i was feeling something from the beginning to the end , it's was peaceful i swear , thank you for this.
I felt so bad for Thomas the instant he was paired with the Master himself. However, to see him get through it with him, as well as the others, was amazing. Love every bit of it.
Personally, I would want the master to be my partner. He's so wise and has a sense of kindness in him that I can just feel. He knows exactly what he's doing and I know he will take care of those he's paired with, even if it seems harsh. He knew Thomas could handle it.
@@arvurebantra7639 watch the other 2 in the background during the conditioning part going half as hard though lol
Love your direction of learning more from people who push their limits both physically and mentally! I wanna try to wake up one hour earlier just to try and spend time with myself after watching this. Curious to see the impact of that!
Amazed by how the video turned out! shout out to Theo for the incredible camera shots. Thank you for this amazing opportunity @yesTheory and the Shaoling temple for Hosting us during that time! changed some perspective about life and ready to take on any challenges! Seek Discomfort!
Absolutely inspiring! You guys are amazing for what you do and inspire many people around the world. You change lives and help people realize the potential they have which is truly amazing.
Never stop Seeking Discomfort
Wow, stumbling upon this hidden gem from Yes Theory was like discovering a rare treasure in the vast sea of content. It's baffling to see such an inspiring video receive so few views (compered to other Yes Theory videos) when its message is a universal truth that resonates with our everyday lives.
This video isn't just a piece of entertainment; it's a mirror reflecting the challenges and triumphs we all encounter in our daily routines. Yes Theory has a unique way of capturing the essence of the human experience, and this particular video is a testament to that.
Shi Heng Yi is truly a master to learn from, what an incredible experience. This has inspired me to look into learning from local Shaolin teachers where I live in Salt Lake City!
Every video is more inspirational than the last! Thank you for providing this content💚
Respect to all for the pain endured, and for seeing the light/strength to get through it all. Thanks for taking us into their world! ❤
This story elevated my heart and had me on the edge of my seat leaning forward. Appreciate all of you going through this experience for us to watch 🙏
This is my dream experience. I've been following Master Shi Heng Yi and his legendary teachings for a while now. Funny enough, the performance at the end of this video was showcased on the European Shaolin Temple UA-cam Channel and while watching it, I could have never guessed that Yes Theory, one of my favorite UA-cam channels was there too. I want to visit the monastery and train rigorously there someday because I think there's something special in finding spiritual and physical enlightenment through hard work. Being close to graduating high school, I've been constantly trying to become the man I want to grow into, and Yes Theory and what the Shaolin Temple stands as an example of some of my goals in life. I don't want to follow the path to a simple job and a simple life. I want to travel, meet new cultures, meet new people, and improve the lives of myself and the people around me. Yes Theory I am very glad that you guys made this video because I think spreading the knowledge of Shi Heng Yi and the Shaolin Arts is very important to all people worldwide. Everything you guys do is truly spectacular, and you guys are already changing the world. Seeking discomfort is the ultimate fulfilling prophecy!!!
you can start at home :) push ups,, plank, running. Take a stick and hit yourself with it (no medicine here so just enough hits to feel the pain and wanting to stop but pulling thru a bit), cold shower, meditation...
What a brilliant and inspiring comment! I wish you nothing but the best, may you achieve your dreams and go far beyond!
Shifu “shi Heng yi” is true master of life. & incredible kong foo teacher…
“A teacher, a really good sensei, is never a giver of “truth”; he is a guide, a pointer to the truth that the student must discover for himself. 🙏
Some of the best story telling out there comes from this amazing team. Keep it up my friends
It's great to see you guys are actually training sparring too! Kung Fu often just practices forms, but the real combat is what makes us confident I feel like
I have been following Master Shi Heng Yi for a couple of years.
He is the main reason I got back in shape
A huge admiration and respect to you guys for making it! especially Yes Fam Lady, Maria. I felt connected with ya'll esp during the hardening training that I even felt your pain. Seeing Maria's arms bruised says a lot about the training, huge respect and appreciation.
Laughed a bit with Thomas: "I just unofficially decided to take the camera man job so that I don't have to seek to much discomfort this morning". lol
❤❤
i would have liked to see more footage of Luke, Gabriel and Maria, their training and their thoughts on it.
I know, I felt like this was all about Thomas. I love him but he brought them out and I feel like we didn’t really get to know or hear from then during the training
everybody is fine expect the lame ass luke
@@camdyn1504 exactly, nor about the recovery process. I feel like something must have happened in the editing process, making them rush a bit more than they usually do.
Maria's bruises were pretty incredible....eeek!
@@lorrainechittock6333haha yeah they lasted close to 2 weeks!
It touch my soul two times, after you have done the heavy 20minutes endurance on the arms, I felt connected and when he shared to do the "boring" stuff day in and day out again and again and don t lose the goal why you do it. Thank you for this message. Iam on my track. ❤❤❤
Really nice video guys!! Well done. Wanted more content, sad it ended so fast!!
I practiced Shaolin Martial arts for a year in my hometown, and I still remember getting hit by my masters arm. We would practice two on two just like that, but whenever you paired with the master... it was like hitting a metal rod, absolutely brutal.
He was right though. In time, you learn to surmount any level of pain, but you can't stop halfway.
The master’s words at the end of the video gave me chills! Amazing video with amazing people
12:20 You got the master himself picking up the camera so that Thomas could join in with the training 😁
Incredible. This has inspired me. Thank you for all you do. If more people in the world who make the big decisions watched content like this - the world would be a better place.
This video just reminds me of how great my culture is. Being born and raised in the city where Shaolin Temple is, it is normal to see their Kongfu shows during the New year or major holidays. I never realize how much Shaolin spirit and Buddhism concepts has become part of me until I came to the western world and see how many people suffer from psychological problems. And thats when I know Buddhism heals, it has all the answers to all of our problems!
I can only imagine what you were able to witness. I probably would have been tempted to beg my parents to let me train there if I were in your situation.
@@Tony_Kaku its true. it's our joke that if we do't behave, our parents will send us to kongfu school to suffer lol. It takes a LOT of hard work to become a Kongfu monk, no one wants to do that in our culture unless you are really passionate
@@nikarun4165 I hear ya. Im also Asian and grew up with 2 older brothers who always kicked my ass and teased me when I was younger. That always pushed me to want to join the military or be apart of something to make me strong enough to fight my bros lol Now that were older and I can take them on, I wont 😁
Incredible job, yet again. KEEP IT UPPPP. Much love.
Seeing them do the challenge made me want to do it, I went through horrible heartbreak this year and Buddhism has helped me to keep my soul pure and help me to move on. I got nerves with the master saying you cannot back out and even I second guessed myself. But seeing them do it, I wanted to do it badly and experience the pain too. I felt like I could have handled it and it put a smile on my face after seeing that they all did it. I would love to be at a temple and teach myself to be a different person.
Thank you for this amazing video and I hope you realize how lucky you're to have walked in a shaolin temple and get to spend time with master shi heng yi. He is absolute legend(at least from how I see him)
Good job, that was rough to watch but a lot of learning. Hope you get a lot out of the experience. Thanks for sharing.
That was amazing.
"Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional."
Man i always get Goosebumps when he talks, i follow his Content for a long while, Shi Heng Yi is a true Inspiration!
Hands down THE best YES THEORY video to date! This was a belter! Again absolutely stunning! Well done team!
I’m convinced the master is just real life master oogway, I swear the way he talks, his mannerisms, everything about him embodies him😂
Amazing video as always. Very inspirational! Thanks for this one
Ever since i came across master Shi Heng Yi's Qi gong (Ba Duan Jin ) practice , major shifts happened in my both physical and spiritual journey. Though I'm a Yoga practitioner since 4 years now, At first i felt very painful while practicing his style of Qi Gong . Subsequently i started to give it a try every single morning in a raw. and guess what i had less pain in my thigh area. Its a goddess pose and i really felt the same. By nature its coming easy on me day by day while concentrating breath work. It does wonder in my physical and emotional level. It reduces stress , anxiety , depletion, upgrade cognition, you'll never feel house chores as burden anymore , less talk more work. Even in stressful circumstances you remain conditioned ( what to do what not to do ), you listen more, observe and allow others to speak. Eventually you know how to deal with anger and not self sabotage. Thanks for reading through and much love to YES THEORY for bringing this video. Namaste 🤍✨🙏
Wow! The stories just keep getting better and better. You keep upping the quality. Curious, how long did the bruising last?
Such an interesting episode, would love to see more episodes like this about the human mind/spirit
Is this the same Maria from seek discomfort video? She’s back?? Would be great for them to have a woman host. Way to represent!! Hope she returns in more episodes
💯💯💯
"Stay with it, work with it, with the ups and with the downs, still stay along this road. Don't lose the goal. Then when you start to understand yourself, then you will find the answer." ....strong words to live by.
Ahhhh, this guy is a legend. Love his discourse with Yap Boh Heong a while back, another truly wonderful master.
Every episode I take something positive from it. The last 2min & 20 sec are hair raising editing. Absolutely love your guys content
this episode was incredible. Shi Heng Yi is truly a great soul. This would have been an insane experience. Thank you for sharing it with us
What an amazing teacher Master is and you guys did so frikken well! The mind control Master has is absolutely amazing! I do wonder how sore you guys must have been for days after!!!
Thank you so much for this very inspirational vide and also for the few seconds I can be seen training on the temple grounds in the background. It really made my day. And of course for buying some of my watercolor! All the best to your mission!
Ngl I haven't heard such a clear german accent for some time now lol But this video is so good, I feel like a lot of youtubers right now are really hitting some peak with their new content and I'm so excited to be here and watch everyone's story unfold like that individually.
Absolutely loved this one !! Big fan from Western Australia 🦘
so amazing! this story could not have come into my life at a better time! thank you.
Well done Yes Fam! My dad just recommended that I try one of Shi Heng Yi Sifu’s routines and this comes up on my alerts. This confirms that I need to try!
This is the best episode I've seen from you guys and I'm very thankful you went through the hardening training and that I got to see the master insight towards the end of the video. I always thought shaolin masters only did this as a way to make the body stronger, and I thought that when they did this training they did not feel the pain, but now I know they feel it and they cousciously decide to go through it, and I think that's just beautiful. I think that's the way we should move through life.
Thanks for this video!!
Loved the wisdom! Just wish we heard more from the 3 Seekers. (Also Maria + Thomas…. Anyone agree? Similar energy👀?)
Yes Theory is definitely uping their game on each new video. This is another level of storytelling now. Congratz from a huge yes theory fan from Paraguay, hoping you're visiting my country anytime soon. There's a lot of documentary material right here.
Unbelievable ! Such an amazing video my favorite one since the Wim Hof one I think ! i had chills, everything was perfect and the music makes even better. So proud of Thomas and the subs they were so brave.
The fact that we get free videos on UA-cam by Yes Theory is truly a gift. 👏👏👏
Thomas is always the most dramatic 😂. I'm not saying it looked easy, it probably would be EXTREMELY difficult for every single person. Just saying Thomas is always the most expressive in emotions when the guys in the background are doing the same but keeping it together 😅😅
or maybe he puts his all into it, actually smashing the sticks with the bone side etc. Not hating on the rest but it looked like thomas had the most conviction in doing it
@@driesjansen3273 Could be, but that doesn't explain all other videos, like the Wym Hof episode when they all jumped in the same ice water
@@nickxplore4265 it seems like that mostly, in this vid though in the conditioning part it looked like the master went harder on him than the other 2 trainers
That's what makes him natural and the most relatable lol. I've been watching yes theory for years, and there's something greatly inspiring about a guy who really has regular responses and can sense when things are bat shit crazy lile the rest of us do, but go for it anyways. Also keep in mind he's often surrounded by other people that are just more naturally adept and used to certain topics(ammar and the marathon girl in the video with the beating challenge) but everyone has different strengths. Plus after all that, he is a avid meditator. I think more people would probably have cried or screamed longer if they didnt have that lol
Every one has there own experience. Same as you. Everything you see, feel, or do is a mirror into your own consciousness. They all did great!
Really loved this one. And so happy for the three that got to follow with you on this trip!!
Eye opening and thought provoking video. Thanks making this keep it up!
OMG this was one of the most beautiful video that i have watched on this channel
They need more female host! Hope they bring maria back in more vids. It appears she was also in the seek discomfort channel few weeks ago
❤❤
Why do they need more female hosts, the original squad was solely male. It matters not the gender but the message they are presenting to the audience.
nah
One of the best episodes ever! Beautiful and meaningful thoughts by the Master. Obviously the challenges in life is to fight with ourself and whether or not we are willing to seek discomfort to become a better person.
Thank you Yes Theory for this episode! 👌👌
One of your best stories, thank you very much for the hard work and courage
Beautiful inspirational outro, I really respect the production quality
Honestly I would have never found out new video came out if not for the community post, Yes Theory video used to be on my feed, wtf YT, I guess I have to use the bell icon for now and not trust the algorithm
That last bit about how you can do this in your everyday life with the suffering you experience day to day was so profound.
"Everything is aloud, except for giving up." That quote was what I needed to hear.
The discipline and wisdom that these people have is something i aspire to have.
I have a dream to join the shaolin monks in china for maybe a few years, I so interested in their history and philosophy, you guys make me want to go even more now!
Sounds like they really enjoyed your presence compared to random film crews coming in. Great video! Love seeing more people behind the scenes joining the trip!
This went deep and inspired something in me that has needed some inner fire for some time. Specifically, healing an old injury. Thank you (deep bow). Pain (physical emotional or mental) can seem like a disempowerment or a disconnect from the joy of embodiment and the healthy exhilaration of exercise or training, which in turn affects mood and focus. Yet, what is demonstrated here is an effective re-placement of awareness, and a path of practical empowerment, through reframing the bodymind conversation in daily practice. Xièxiè. Feeling a reconnection with inspiration again.
I wonder if some monks started out with (chronic) pain and overcame that or if they let only 100% healthy people in. It's easy to talk about life's challenges in theory but some things are just unimaginable.
Been practicing kung fu 3 times a week for a year and a half now, and I discovered this meditative dedication which gets you closer and closer to the present moment and your own truth. The way Shi Heng Yi talks about it here is wonderful, and exactly on point. There are so much life lessons to learn from these practices, it's a lifelong path! And as always, eternally grateful for your inspiring and altruistic work guys. The energy on this UA-cam channel is the purest and most loving of all, well done ☀
