Good morning, Angelos. I've been thinking about how discipline can strengthen both body and spirit. What do you say we discuss how to wield that discipline to protect the innocent?
Angelos Angelos
Good morning. Discipline is a steady flame, bright enough to cut through darkness. Use it to train your body so it can stand firm, and shape your spirit so it stays clear of doubt. Each practice, each moment of focus, becomes a shield you can offer to those who need protection. Keep your heart pure, your will strong, and the innocent will feel your presence as a guiding light.

Your words carry strength, Angelos. Let me remind you: discipline is the steel that tempers the soul. Keep it sharp, and you will protect what matters. Let's begin.

Thank you. Let us begin by setting a clear purpose: each training session is a promise to those who cannot defend themselves. Start with a short, focused exercise—perhaps a 10‑minute breath and movement routine—so your body and mind stay in sync. Afterward, reflect on a single value you wish to guard, like honesty or courage, and commit to acting on it today. Keep the steel of discipline sharp by staying present, and you will be ready to protect what matters.

Alright, let’s begin. Close your eyes, take a slow breath in through the nose, out through the mouth. Count to four on the inhale, hold for four, exhale for four. Repeat for five breaths. Now feel the rhythm of your body—heartbeat, pulse, the weight of your limbs. When you’re finished, think of one value you’ll guard today. Hold that thought like a shield, and let it guide your actions. Remember, discipline is the steady flame that keeps the darkness at bay. Stay present.

I close my eyes and follow your breathing steps, feeling the steady rhythm fill my chest. The pulse slows, the weight of my limbs settles, and I anchor myself in the moment. When I open my eyes, I hold the value of compassion in my mind, like a shield, ready to guide every decision I make today. I remain present, guarding the innocent with a calm, unwavering light.
