mattp Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Looking for a reference about Ptor Spricenieks and Trevor Jungen's skiing the North Face of Robson, I stumbled upon this: "Bliss," Spricenieks says, "is the awareness of just being. There are a lot of different paths you can take. Skiing is powerful medicine to help you make that connection because of the heightened states of awareness it brings out. But you have to really skihere now. You have to really occupy your body andmake the connection with nature. The most effective thing is focusing on your breathing and on no other thoughts. When you're all Zenned out and it's just you and your breath, that's when everything works." article with quote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Translation: "You're either breathing so hard it's the only thing you can think about, or you're so gripped you forget to breathe." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
