hazeleyes202 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I understand you must train the body in order to do martial arts, but are there any ways to train the mind? Become mentally stronger....besides mediation “When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment; he needs help. That's the message he is sending.” - Thich Nhat Hanh
JusticeZero Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 What do you mean by "train the mind" exactly? What behavior do you expect from someone who has not "trained the mind" that someone who has will do differently? "Anything worth doing is worth doing badly." - Baleia
hazeleyes202 Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 @JusticeZero I mean fearing no one, being fearless “When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment; he needs help. That's the message he is sending.” - Thich Nhat Hanh
Harkon72 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 A martial artist who is fearless is a fool, fear is our survival instinct. If you have no fear you cannot make choices and take appropriate risks. He who fears others is brave, he who fears himself is mighty. Look to the far mountain and see all.
hazeleyes202 Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 ^ Thanks! =) “When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment; he needs help. That's the message he is sending.” - Thich Nhat Hanh
Tonny Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 (edited) Very true i completely agree being mentally strong is more important thing physically.You need to get motivated by something and should set a aim for which you have to achieve at any cost.

bushido_man96 Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 I've heard the book The Gift of Fear is a good read for that subject matter. Something to look into. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
barrypardue Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Focus training is useful!! Martial Arts is not just a hobby, Its a way of life!!!
Anderson Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 No doubt that with physical training mind training is also important to keep brain healthy and fresh. There are many exercises that help us in doing this. St. Pete gym
