Just a quick update before the tribe at home wakes up!
********************* 7 Day Detox ********************* Tomorrow I start my 7 day Detox where I will blog about it everyday from the, highs, food, lows, to the mind talk etc.... I'm excited about doing this Detox because it gives me an opportunity to "explore" habits and addictions that go underneath the radar i.e. unconscious patterns!
Obviously there are lots of benefits to doing a Detox ranging from;
Weight Loss
Cleanse from the Inside
Increased Vitality
Greater Energy
Break free of Patterns
Understand the body more
Plus lots more
My main reasons are nothing more than a fun challenge i.e. can I do it? Break my normal eating patterns, give my insides a clean from the toxins, kind of like a "internal bath"!
So stay tuned tomorrow for Day 1 of the 7 Day Detox!

I've been procrastinating on making this happen A LOT FASTER, for the simple reason of my own FEAR!!!
I'm a self taught geek and I've outsourced all of this project to the "experts" which has been a blessing and challenge. Now it's 95% done and I'm holding the chain again figuring out how to use the site etc.....
This is my way of saying I'm scared again :-)
But to face this "fear", I'm going to go on record and say in April will be the realease date of the new site! I've got excuses for this not to happen i.e. baby due any week now BUT that only sounds good to me, I'm going to dig deep to get it all sorted by this date!!
THEY DON'T GET HURT!! This may not go down well but oh well!
Rugby NEEDS to bring back tackle for kids. Tackle is FUNDAMENTAL part of the sport & is MORE important then stepping or ball skills!
It teaches safety, confidence and SIGNIFICANTLY reduces fear! So then WHY would we not give it too our kids of today?
Because, rugby has got so bloody PC that we want them to play "tag" & justify it with "safety"!!!
Here's off the NZRU website for under 7's. What individual skills do I teach each grade? U7
Running with ball
Swerve
Tap kick and pass
Basic pass
Receiving pass
Ball familiarization
NONE of this matters if you are scared shitless to tackle, kids get bruises NOT breaks! This in my mind is teaching kids to "be the star", we have only ever had 1 Jonah Lomu but we have had more Buck Shelford's!
Actually, Ritchie Macaw is SHIT at swerving, passing & in my oponion "ball familarization" BUT, BUT, BUT! He is one of the MOST devasting people at ruck and maul time and in the tackle for getting the ball EVER that the game has ever seen! This is from a "workers/tackling" mindset not a swerve, pass/catch skill set!
Tell me the last time you saw a kid under 8 break his leg or neck from rugby or league?
Here's what I think, parents are inflicting fear into the kids about tackle in particular the mums, (there you go I said it!!). This is why we need more coaches like Marie who supports tackle!
If your a mum and don't want to see your little Tommy or Tammy get dirty then don't watch him/her play & DON'T pass on your fear to your kids, "oh be careful, they so much bigger then you"!
So what, Maaori or Island kids are bigger, the more reason tackle is so important!!
I love sport & BELIEVE every kid should do "something"! Ur thoughts?
