I’ve been getting a lot of questions from my non-Black friends about how to be a better ally to Black people. I suggest unlearning and relearning through literature as just one good jumping off point, and have broken up my anti-racist reading list into sections:
HALT! Take a minute to appreciate Dan Houglum's "Bruce Wayne" position through the lens of @postrestinst "Myokinematic Course". Great updates and more appreciation for Myokin and (L) AIC perspective. #PRI#PhysicalTherapy

Brad Stevens on building confidence
“You build confidence by doing really hard things over & over - cause that’s your intent - that’s your focus - your job is your focus.”
“The game honors toughness.”

We all want to live a happy life, so we have to learn to live together in trust and mutual respect. We do have differences of race, nationality, religious faith and so on, but these differences are secondary in comparison to our equality in being human.
If you're trying to create a new and improved movement or posture, please understand that you cannot erase an old one. You must create a new, stronger one. This takes time. If you can accept this, you're off to a great start.
While many people consider sensory experience as the main source of happiness, really it is peace of mind. What destroys peace of mind is anger, hatred, anxiety and fear. Kindness counters this—and through appropriate education we can learn to tackle such emotions.
Some people consider the practice of love and compassion is only related to religious practice and if they are not interested in religion they neglect these inner values. But love and compassion are qualities that human beings require just to live together.
There are always problems to face, but it makes a difference if our minds are calm. On the surface we may get upset, but it makes a difference if we are able to stay calm in the depths of our minds.
