Vibram Five finger shoes for the Journey or not for the Journey

On the Journey i have discovered that we need tools to make the journey easier and more enjoyable. Since in 2012 i have added to the vision of Gye-Nyame Journey and add a major physical fitness component I have begun to experiment with tools.
My latest and maybe greatest tool I have invested in is the Five Finger Vibram  Bikila running shoe. At first I was skeptical about these shoes that reminded me of Hank McCoy's feet especially when I imagined putting them on my size 12s, but I needed to do something because in the past when i attempted to do long distance runs I would hurt my ankles. So being open to new ideas I began to research how to improve my running style so that I could do my running without hurting myself. I ordered a few books about running and ran into some studies about barefoot running, but i needed away to run barefoot without hurting my feet. According to my research running barefoot would help protect my ankles by allowing my body to absorb the impact of my runs in a natural way. This made perfect sense to me because I personal had found that no matter how much I paid for my running shoes i would hurt myself. I decided barefoot running was worth a try, but it gets cold where I am and I wanted to be able to run regardless of the weather. I first invested in a pair of zemgear barefoot shoes, but they were useless after a week I wore the bottoms out. At this point i decided to invest in some Vibrams because I began to enjoy my runs and wanted to continue.
The highpoints: although I have eliminated the ankle pain, my calves are killing me. The shoes actually allow you to feel the road and experience your body adjust to them. So far I have been able to knock off a minute off of each mile run without even trying.
The lowpoints: they are so intiszing that you can want to over do it and get super sore around the calves. Your toes can take some time to get use to being seperated into their own space.
Over all they are excellent shoes for anyone looking for a close to the earth experience, and who want to feel what the feet were designed for. Worth the money.

Let's Take It To The Next Level - 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge

Image
Peace FAM: It is time that I move to another level. I have spoke enough about sacrifice, suffering, embracing the bitter. Now it is time for us to see these things totally in action. I have decided to commit to completing another 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge with a fast. It is about to get hard. This time I will not be doing the intermittent fasting I will be doing a straight liquid fast. The goal is to demonstrate that it can be done, to help me workout some of my personal fears, and to solidify my vision for GNJ. I am not playing with this platform I have been blessed with, and I am not playing with this product that the Ancestors have dropped in my lap. I decided to call it the Gye-Nyame Quest. Now what I will have to workout is a system that will help me make it through the rough times. I will follow everything that we do within the challenge, plus the fast. My system will look like this: Week 1 Breathing Exercise Toast Movement Cold shower/ bath proverb & folktale of

GNJ # System

  GNJ # System Introduction In the ancient world, we used numbers to count and calculate. Numbers were also used in rituals and religious ceremonies. Today, we still use numbers for these purposes, but they have become more important than ever before! Numbers provide a way to better understand ourselves as individuals. Numbers also provide a way to better understand the world around us and how we interact with it. Finally, numbers can help us learn more about how to behave so that we can achieve our goals, whether they are spiritual or material in nature. The GNJ system is a new approach that will allow you to gain insight into yourself by using numerology and astrology together! The first step is learning your Life Path Number (sometimes called your "birthday number"). This will tell you what kind of person you are at heart based on when you were born - which could be either good news or bad news depending on when that happens." Numbers provide a way to better understan
