In the Dojo (Finding Focus)

Sometimes things happen in life which knock a person back.  Sometimes things happen that knock a whole family back and today was the culmination of one of those weeks.

Many things happened to my family this week including to cap it all, my daughter being injured in an RTA.  In the end there were no broken bones, but the worry even without that is still enough.

The dojo was as much a place to re-charge and refocus as well as practice and exercise.  Being able to have something to focus on, a place to work out frustration and a place to be surrounded by people who care is imporatant.

It gives structure and stability when things around are somewhat chaotic. Whilst I started out in Karate to help my physical health, I have found it just as good for my mental health as well. in time of stress.

A big thank you to Alison, Ben, et al😊
