Waking Times
In mid-2012, I was struggling with extreme fatigue. I was working as the Vice President of an advertising agency, I was the co-founder of a startup, and I was training athletically and intensely about 14 times per week. In a nutshell, I was inflicting a lot of stress on my body and constantly working towards something without taking the time to appreciate the present moment. My libido had vanished, my vigor gone, and feeling happiness had become difficult.
Consulting with a naturopath, I developed a daily meditation practice; I started to play more; and I adopted a more free-flowing and relaxed lifestyle.
In August of 2013, I ventured to Burning Man with my best friend Sid: an experience so profound and magical, that I plan to go every year for the rest of forever.
