What up, guys. Welcome to the Jitsu podcast. Today we're going to go into some ideas on, I mean, really, this one's going to be all over the place, but we sort of start with the kernel, the idea of nostalgia, going back to the good old days, recognizing that you're in them and then maybe some ideas on how to sort of appreciate them. You know,

maybe not the most interesting idea to everyone, but think about this. Think about your life.

And I imagine if you've done this thing, you know, long enough and you've done it well enough

that you probably look back at some point in your life with a certain sense of belonging

missing there's a lot of cool words for that uh i'm probably i'm not going to look them up right

now because i didn't have but i just they came to me there's like several words in the english

language that don't exist in the english language and there's a really good like welsh one um so. So, uh, I, I won't be able to say it in the true Welsh tongue, but one of our students, she, she's, she's Welsh. Okay. Laura. Yeah. And so I remember bringing to her and she's like, yeah. So the term is here. Hereth. Okay.

I spelled H-I-R-A-E-T-H. Okay. It basically means a homesickness for a home you cannot return to or that never was.

You can think about nostalgia or real loss of time or past. There's another one. It's Portuguese. Again, Sada day day, I think is this house pronounced. And it's a beautiful longing for someone or something you may never see again. You know, and you can think about this. So anyway, um, you know, just some ideas, you know, just like fun words. I'm, I get into that stuff. but the, you know, but this, if you've done it long enough, you have these periods of time that you look back on and go,

man,

I miss that that stuff. But the, you know, but this if you've done it long enough,

you have these periods of time that you look back on and go, man, I missed that time period. Um, you know, and if for a lot of you guys that are parents, I spoke to a lot of parents where, you know, right now my son's almost three and everybody tells me, every parent's like, oh man man, they fly by. Don't miss out on them.

And they tell me, oh, you know, I was so ready to, for them to be a little bit older or whatever, don't miss out on them. This is the best. Yeah. And so again, so I'm trying to like remind myself of that even when like you're dealing with like the like the little temper tantrums and stuff. and it's an important thing when you're training until like even when you're going through

the frustrating parts of training okay like this is a good thing this is this you're going to

look back on this temper tantrums and stuff. And it's an important thing when you're, when you're training until like, even when you're going through the frustrating parts of training, hey, like,

this is a good thing.

This is this.

You're going to look back on this. And so we'll talk about some different strategies than that and some different ideas that I think are useful just in general to, um, to be a little bit more reflective. So you can sort of take that same, that same gaze that you look to Jitsu with that you used to improve and how to apply it to like other parts of your existence. Again, so it's a little bit off the, off the normal beaten path that we do. But hopefully you guys enjoy the episode. And if you do let us know, you can shoot us an email. You can shoot us an Instagram message or you know, you don't have to do any of those things. And you can just keep listening to the podcast. Big thanks to us, our sponsors for help would make this podcast happen. Athletic is one of our sponsors. They make THC mints that are dosed appropriately to give you certain effects, but not at the same time, not make you go high off your rock or, you know, whatever, get blitzed, make to the point where you can see colors, nothing like that, right?

It's two milligrams of THC along with other cannabinoids.

And so they have three different minutes that they currently make, which is power, low, and rebound.

And obviously, those have certain effects that sort of go along with the name, right?

Flow state, try to get your mind into a more relaxed state that can be useful for creative tasks, rebound, obviously for recovery.
