Love the commentary on shadowboxing as "a perfect combination of technique and outlet for releasing pent-up rage." Yes to lying down - reminds me of Tricia Hersey's book Rest Is Resistance - and re-imagining what life could look like - reminds me of Rachel Cargle's book A Renaissance of Our Own!

Thanks, Liz! I've found I've learned a not so great habit of internalizing negative emotions, so shadowboxing has taught me how to channel those emotions in a super focused way (and build mental/physical strength at the same time!). I'll have to check out those books you mentioned as well. :-)
