This is what you trained for

"This is what you trained for."

Those were the first words I said to my team and to our community when the lockdown was announced.

All that time spent on your meditation cushion in silence learning to let go, the time spent on retreats doing all that grinding inner work, this is what that was for.

The two institutions, organisations, that use specifically use repetitive training to prepare for chaos are the military and religions. They both design training exercises that simulate liminal spaces, chaotic times, so when those times hit their people can respond instead of just react.

This is why I created Palaestra, an online training, learning, community of practice, because "the more you sweat in training, the less you bleed in battle"

I would love for you to join us.

Get skin in the game, train.
