I learn there is much more to this martial art than punching and kicking. That it is a pathway to finding peace within. There is a powerful correlation between the punching sequences and the way the mind cycles through beliefs and repeats them. This is an opportunity to understand more about yourself as I reflect on my experience of doing Muay Thai.
