I’ve started filming myself practicing warrior clubs—not to judge every movement, but to notice what I can’t always feel in the moment.

Where am I holding tension? Am I rushing the movement? What changes when I slow down and breathe?

The practice shown here is Didya Mudgara Warrior Club Calisthenics, developed by Virgil Apostol, whose work brings together Philippine Indigenous Knowledge, traditional healing, cultural history, and Filipino martial traditions.
I’m approaching it with an empty cup. I’m still learning, observing, and refining my form while noticing how the practice is changing me: stronger shoulders, deeper breathing, greater focus, and a closer connection to my Filipino heritage.

What I learn while holding the clubs doesn’t stay there. It carries into how I listen, how I work, and how I care for the people who trust me to support them.

What practice helps you return to your body before caring for others?

With Filipino American History Month beginning in October, I chose two books to help me learn more about the spiritual beliefs connected to my Filipina bloodline.: The Creatures of Philippine Lower Mythology and Anitismo: The Ancient Religion of the Philippines. 📚🌿

As I’ve deepened my own spiritual practice, I’ve felt more curious about the beliefs of my Filipino ancestors. What did they believe about spirits, nature, healing, and the unseen world? How did those beliefs shape everyday life—and what remained after generations of colonization and change?

I’m not approaching these books as someone who already has the answers. I’m reading with curiosity and care, hoping to better understand the spiritual beliefs carried through my Filipino bloodline.

My work includes practices from several spiritual traditions, and it matters to me that I also spend time learning about the wisdom held within my own ancestry—Karay-a Filipino and Cumbrian English.

These are my books for the season. I’m looking forward to reading slowly, taking notes, and noticing what connects with the spiritual practices I hold today.
What are you reading this season?
