Cambell Forlong - known to many as the Raglan Soul Runner - Ran 52 Marathons in 52weeks in his 52nd year.

His journey took him from the equator in the Congo to the snow of the Canadian Rockies, to the seine in Paris, and right back home to the back streets of Hamilton and the roads to Raglan.

But what makes his story powerful isn't just the running, it's the journey into love, purpose and what it means to live well.

What seems and feels to be the impossible.

I am passionate about sharing korero in this space, as I believe we ALL as a HUMANITY, a people struggle with Mental Health, it's not a cough or cold or a virus you catch, it is learning to navigate the cold and the warm, the night and the dark. Trying to weave and maintain a sustainable balance within.

I look forward to supporting the dissolve of the stigma that exists, to normalise conversations, around Mental Health with friends, with family, with community and the world.

We are all a part of the problem, but also the key as a SOLUTION.

BE THE SOLUTION.

Review of our discussion around the Evolutionary Shift of the Collective Human Consciousness.

Key Points:

Training is in SESSION - When we can notice the GIFT in an uncomfortable situation, we essentially Flip the Script. We SEE, FEEL, OBSERVE a whole other perspective of the illusional story you seeded in your mind-space. Another way to put it is, we are strengthen up our PIPI muscles! LoL

Challenges in life are opportunites to choose something new, re-assess what you would prefer, bring you back into your body, to FEEL, to NAVIGATE.
