Retreating From Technology | Handstanding For Days

Jun 23, 2024

Lessons from a week spent doing nothing but handstands and not using technology

In Episode #450 of 'Meanderings' Juan & I discuss: the handstand retreat of Miguel Sant'ana, seeing toucans & capybaras, learning my weaknesses and strengths all over again, being free of the constant negative news, the huac tuah girl meme, taking time off to recuperate/rejuvenate and why Juan is actually a running Wolverine.

Huge thanks to Petar, McIntosh, myself & Cole McCormick for supporting the show. We really appreciate your contribution!
