WolfDreamer Posted March 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 I want to welcome everyone who has decided to kick it with the Adventurers during this challenging time. We do our best to keep it positive here, but this is always a safe space for you to share your struggles, your concerns, your frustrations. This really is a scary time for everyone because it's unprecedented. But we can make it through this. This is an opportunity to really boost your mental health, to practice such things as solitude, quiet, meditation, journaling, finally reading that stack of books you've been neglecting, or even to start writing a book of your own. Listen to podcasts, watch some documentaries, play music loudly and dance in your living room, sing at the top of your lungs. This is also an opportunity to rethink your physical health. For some of you, the gym was part of your routine, and you worked hard to build that routine. Maybe you weren't much of a gym person before, and it was hard for you to build that habit. And now, gyms and fitness centers are closed, and you're routine is all messed up, just as you were beginning to actually enjoy the gym and see it as a welcoming place that encouraged your fitness journey. I get it, trust me. But now, you have an opportunity to rethink ways to keep your body in shape. You have the opportunity to get creative with ways to work out. It is also an opportunity to reflect on functional fitness, preparing your body for real-life movements. The Adventurers are here to help, to answer questions, offer tips and advice, or just to listen to your concerns. Let us know if we can help in any way. 4 1 Quote Who am I? -- My NF Character Current Challenge: WolfDreamer Springs Forward Past Challenges: Spoiler Winter is Coming, Wolfen Strengthens His Heart, Body, Mind, and Spirit, Wolfen Becomes One of the People, Wolfen Strengthens His Chakras, Wolfen Welcomes Summer and Gets Primal, Soulcon and Spartan, Wolfen Develops Mental Toughness, Wolfen Joins the Wander Society, Soulcon, Spartan, School, and Stranger Things, Wolfen Becomes a Warrior Elite, Wolfen Goes Here and There and Back Again, Wolfen Becomes a Soulcon Warrior Elite, Wolfen Returns to His Roots, Wolfen Wanders in Soul, Spirit, and Body, Wolfen Owns the Day, Wolfen Searches for His Wild Heart, Wolfen Runs for His Life, Wolfen Hits the Trails, Wolfen Becomes an Explorer and Joins the Resistance, Wolfen Goes Back to the Source, Wolfen Begins the Hero's Journey, WolfDreamer Returns to the People, WolfDreamer Pushes Back, WolfDreamer Prioritizes, Burpees, Books, and Brainwork, Burpees, Books, Brainwork, and Bodywork, WolfDreamer Masters the Four Elements, WolfDreamer Continues to Master the Four Elements, WolfDreamer Returns to Sparta, WolfDreamer Returns to Middle Earth, WolfDreamer Continues His Middle Earth Adventure, WolfDreamer and the Fall, WolfDreamer Forges His Own Path, WolfDreamer Has Hope, WolfDreamer Returns to Middle Earth, WolfDreamer Reads Harder, Breathes Harder, and Journals More, WolfDreamer Embraces His Wild Poet, The Mad Poet Becomes Supernatural, WolfDreamer, The Mad Poet, Becomes Superhuman, WolfDreamer Elevates, WolfDreamer Becomes IronBorn, WolfDreamer Wakes the White Wolf, The Mad Poet Recovers by Keeping it Simple, WolfDreamer Clears His Mind to Find His Wild Heart, WolfDreamer Resets, WolfDreamer Strives to Become an Eminently Qualified Peaceful Warrior “I'd rather sing one wild song and burst my heart with it, than live a thousand years watching my digestion and being afraid of the wet.” -- Jack London “I wanted movement and not a calm course of existence.

Sciread77 Posted March 23, 2020 Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 This is seconded. For anyone new to our guild, there are a lot of us who are not terribly gym-oriented but who have found ways to train at home and in nature. We’re happy to have people here, whether they are looking to problem solve, vent, improve their mental health and/or diet, shoot the breeze, or just about anything else. In any case, we always seek the adventure and wonder in life, which is often a lot closer to home than we realize. 3 Quote Adventurer, Half-Dwarf Chaotic-Good Paladin Ne me dites jamais les chances! ¡Nunca me digas las probabilidades!

Adventurers look like a lot of other guilds, but it’s that spirit of adventure that helps define us.

I agree with Sciread™️ To me adventuring is more of a philosophy* than anything else. It's that state of mind where you wonder about where the road goes -- and since in the end there's only one road anyway, your curiosity can take you on grand adventures even right outside your door. Here's to that #adventurerlife! * At least that's what I tell myself. It CERTAINLY has nothing to do with the fact that I find lifting unpleasant and running painful, or that the very thought of something like an OCR or CrossFit makes me woozy. Really. My lack of discipline has nothing to do with it at all Good thing other members of this guild are such badasses! 3 2 Quote hröa Periano, sanar Eldaro, fëa Núnatano (body of a Hobbit, mind of an Elf, soul of a Dúnadan) Memories of a former Age [ 1 | 2 ] ~ Return from Mandos [ respawn ] Recent sojourns in Middle-earth { 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 | 27 | 28 | 29 | 30 | 31 ] [ Current: spreadsheets all the way down ] ~ [ Tracking spreadsheet ] ~ [ Instagram ] The warrior and the artist live by the same code of necessity, which dictates that the battle must be fought anew every day. ~ Steven Pressfield, The War of Art Link to comment
