[2] When are optimal times to exercise, whether cardio, lifting, MMA drills etc. and how many days/week and for how long each session? [3] What are sound nutritional (incl water) guidelines to promote a lean and energy efficient Ramadan?

PS: Allah reward Ustadh Abdul Aziz Suraqah who first introduced me to the concept of stillness, and Sidi Mostafa Azzam, who helped deepen my understanding of it. Ameen!

#180LIFESTYLE: THE ART AND SCIENCE OF TRANSFORMATION Neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman is a remarkable man who has lived a life of practical wisdom gleaned from serious trial and error. He set forth to overcome his own crippling life-challenges rooted in a lack of focus and structure around a hierarchy of values and meaning. In this podcast interview with The Rich Roll Podcast, he shares his beautiful anecdotal accounts and scientific insights on the art and science of tran...sformation. We underestimate our capacity to 'change' and make breakthroughs. We also underestimate the value of those breakthroughs. While our environments and sociopolitical structures remain limiting factors to our own transformative abilities, what we *can* achieve remains remarkable and can be the catalyst for far-reaching consequences societally, too.

#180Principles #TheGreenPill: TRAUMA AND PROCRASTINATION A great deal of trauma based self-betrayal is conflated as mere procrastination. People whose default relational experience has been unmeasured and unmerited invalidation, with little balancing validation, may constantly feel emotional blocks, and even stress induced fatigue, that slow them down. May Ash-Shafee grant everyone Shiffa. Ameen.

#180LIFESTYLE: GIFT OF BROTHERHOOD My beloved Junaid S. wrote this for me and surprised me on my big day . BarakAllahu feekum Habibi! You're a truly thoughtful younger brother and a fine man of reflection. I'm honoured to have you as a brother and companion. I'm also thankful to know you're with me and I'm with you, on the path of REMASTERING RUJULA in the way of the Chosen One , in-sha'Allah. We are like the sun and all encompassing breeze radiating onto and reflecting of...f of the vast blue oceans , in the form of a magnificent ship sailing across it's ancient and mighty waters. Yeah, don't even try to beat that bromance y'all . I'm deeply moved and touched by your remarkable opinion of me, my journey, and my life's work. It beautifies and inspires me, and it conveys your graceful sight. Alhamdulillah. You really understand me, and have helped me hone it too, through our work together. Thank you for honouring to my stories . You know, when I started all this I was so confused and felt a burning anguish from deep within. I needed answers and set out to find them. Along the way, I messed up many times, and in ways I've had to pay for a lot less than what was possible. I also vowed never to give up even if I was a one man army. It was intimidating and deeply lonely, especially during the lowest points. But, He Opened Doors of Mercy and Grace for me and Allowed me to find places and states I'd never have imagined reaching 8 years ago. He even Allows me to appreciate what I had even then, but dismissed or just couldn't see and receive more fully. Back then, I would have been moved if knew what was to come: righteous companions who understand the times, believe in me, and push me to continue towards Allah and His Messenger , even if I have to crawl. I mean that from the bottom of my heart. Allah preserve you and your family, and safeguard and sustain your soul, heart, mind and body. Ameen.
