#79 Collab: Josh Lu on BJJ Meditations Podcast
In this episode, Josh Lu is on the other side of the interview with Joe Hannan from BJJ Meditations! Hope you enjoy. From BJJ Meditations Podcast:
Josh is a white belt based in San Diego, CA. He's been meditating for 12 years and has spent a total of 45 days (spread out over the years) on silent retreat. He's currently pursuing a mindfulness meditation teacher certification.
In this conversation, we discuss the psychological challenges of competing in Jiu Jitsu and the importance of authenticity in finding one's own style. We explore the paradox of change and the illusion of self-improvement, emphasizing the value of being present and accepting oneself. The conversation also touches on the connection between Jiu Jitsu and Boyd Varty's idea of tracking, as well as the application of Jiu Jitsu lessons to life. Josh provides guidance on getting started with mindfulness and the role of journaling in cultivating self-awareness. And the conversation concludes with a guided meditation practice.
Some weird thoughts and reflections on all of these things in this week's BJJ Meditations.
