Notes On Practice | Grass Roots

Just keep practicing, I told myself. If I practice with devotion, if I am relentless in interrogating the stories that limit me, and if I stay connected to raw, unfiltered presence, things will shift radically and this foot pain won’t be such a big deal.

A friend suggested I visit an orthopedic doctor who specializes in working with extreme athletes.

Staccato arrived more quickly than I expected, and…
