I've become a spiritual person after surviving cancer. I meditate before I run a marathon as it helps me keep my stamina. I've just become a life coach. I am considering working as a meditation coach in Alaska. I want to share my meditation technique with others, even if it doesn't pay well. I learned about meditation to help me get through my cancer.
I live in Alaska and we don't have many life coaches here. I've never run a marathon. My brothers are monks and help me meditate. Lately I quit my job to join the monastery. They take care of my basic needs. I started studying meditation when a family member was diagnosed with cancer. She has been in remission for 14 years now.
What do you think is the best region of Alaska? I think southwestern alaska is the best! I love the Peulik Volcano there. I have never heard of that area. What is so amazing about it? Besides the volcano of course Well it also is one of the riches salmon areas in the world! A lot of it is only accessible by boat or small plane, so it is very wild area as well. Salmon is my favorite food, and the oils in it is good for people with cancer or recovering from it! I bet eating it fresh is amazing. That sounds really cool. How is meditating going? It's been going good! I have did a few 8 hour meditation sessions last month. How about you?  I am trying to see how cold effects meditation, so if I move up to Alaska, I can see about any outdoor meditation. I even went as far as trying to meditate in a walk in freezer, but I kept getting interrupted. I am trying. Oh wow that is very interesting! I don't think you have to come as far as Alaska to find cold weather! Have you thought about places like North Dakota or Maine? Oh no, I already was thinking about going to Alaska. I just wanted to do some trials before going. I am also trying to do meditation with different oils and scents to see how they effect it. I find that peppermint and lavender are not good for meditation. One makes you want to get up and go and the other will put you to sleep haha. Nice! I go the minimalist route when it comes to meditating, just however things are in the moment. Where do you currently live? I live in New Mexico now, but it is not my final destination. I like to move around every six months or so to pass on some lessons and enjoy a different area. I want to see the entire world, one continent at a time. Oh wow I have never been to New Mexico. In fact I have barely been to many other states!
