2/7/2026 Weekly Bootcamp for Mindful Warriors

This video is a live-streamed "Weekly Bootcamp for Mindful Warriors" led by Denny. The session combines philosophical teachings, physical stretching (Asana), and breathing/meditation techniques (Pranayama and Chigong) to help participants manage pain and cultivate inner peace. Core Teachings • The Four Foundations of Mindfulness: Denny explains that "mindfulness" translates to "remembrance" or "anchoring." He breaks down the practice into four areas: the existence of the body (breath), sensations (feeling without judgment), the mind, and the Dharma [05:39]. • Pain vs. Suffering: Using the example of monks walking 2,300 miles to the capital, he explains that physical pain is only "10% of the experience." The remaining 90% is mental suffering, which can be managed by acknowledging, accepting, and letting go of the sensation [08:11]. • The Science of Breathing: The class emphasizes abdominal/diaphragmatic breathing. Denny explains that this technique balances the sympathetic (fight or flight) and parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous systems, which can reduce brain inflammation and help prevent dementia [44:12]. Practice Sessions • Dynamic Stretching (Yang): The first half of the session involves joint rotations and stretches for the wrists, elbows, and shoulders to release tension and confront physical "blocks" [11:14]. • Energetic Exercises: A series of "throwing the fist" movements designed to generate vibration and energy (Yang) [30:56]. • Standing Meditation & Chigong: Participants engage in rhythmic movements like "balloon breathing" [01:13:13], "butterfly" [01:17:35], and "pushing the water wheel" [01:19:47] to cycle "Chi" through the body. • Guided Loving-Kindness (Metta): The session concludes with a seated meditation focused on gratitude and forgiveness. Denny guides participants to send peace and health to themselves, their families, and "all beings" [01:36:18]. Logistics & Announcements • New In-Person Sessions: Denny announces that in-person classes will begin on March 22nd, 2026, with a half-day retreat scheduled for March 29th [53:32]. • Prison Yoga Partnership: He highlights an informal partnership with a "prison yoga" program, noting that his teaching methods are rooted in the same "eight limbs of yoga" practiced by the Buddha [54:52]. https://www.youtube.com/live/g2gpm6Is...
