Sickness !!!

Sickness !!!

Hi Rocka's !

This blog is about 'sickness' NOT the good sickness of riding waves and the endless stoke that comes with it, but the real sickness, when you're sick and you just can't surf... Ah no.... You have to wait it out. You could be hungover or you might be injured or you might have flu or food poisoning or a bad illness that they just can't diagnose. Oh comes the dawn. You're gonna have to put everything on hold until you get better - so how to do it?

In the more serious cases it's gonna be a doctor mission, anti-biotics, treatment and resting up with the right diet and fluids. But mostly it's gonna be plenty of water and basic vegetables, core ingredients and no processed foods. Be good to yourself, you knew how to be sick in the water or on concrete or snow so now be a good sick on land.

Remember the key to recovery is acceptance of the sickness, early diagnosis and appropriate steps. Everyone else can get out there but you've got to wait it out and recover. Patience. Just like it is in the elements you're waiting for your moment... the all clear!

The thing about sickness is that it gives you a chance to reassess what you've been doing and do the slow, necessary thinking to recalibrate yourself. Think of all the times you've been sick and you came back stronger... it's an important part of being an athlete or in any pursuit it allows you that time to down tools and absorb what else has been going on while you've been gung-ho. Your time will come and you'll be re-juvenated and a little wiser as you're senses shift back to the basics of being well, let alone the legend you're gonna be when you get back in the water!

It's a busy world out there but you can't be ON 100% of the time, so use the time wisely. Read, listen to The Struts and Rockaline Music and maybe get yourself a Rockaline T-shirt or Hoodie. That alone is gonna aid your recovery and now you'll do it with a bit of style ! 

Within no time you'll get back to the REAL sickness - living like only you know how!

Remember, everything moves in cycles and if twice a century the world shows us just how small we are, you can deal with a little sickness til you can show the world what you're made of...

Peace Rocka's !
