To know is a privilege. Our knowledge guides us through hardship, success, and mundane moments. Our understanding of life and society deeply intertwines everything we do. Knowledge is "acquaintance or familiarity gained by sight." To know is to see the truth. Seeing the truth is essential to evolving into your highest self. This feels quite vague, but knowledge is an endless principle. One is capable of acquiring knowledge about almost anything in life. Knowledge is what gives us power.

One of the most crucial attributes of knowledge is the authenticity of it. When seeking knowledge, gaining insight from multiple verified sources is important. This will allow you to fully expand your mind with truthful information, which in turn will accelerate your evolution process. In this sense, consider evolution as your brain "leveling up." For example, let us consider the art of Pilates. If you are in pursuit of evolving as a Pilates student, it is important to build your knowledge on the practice. You will interact with key sources, such as Joseph Pilates's original teachings, your local Pilates studio, or a certified health and wellness coach. This gathering of intel will help you grow as a Pilates student and enhance your practice. Another critical attribute of knowledge is its duality. When seeking knowledge, looking at topics from all sides is very important. Whether you agree with what is being presented or not, it is very important to understand the facts being presented. This practice can help you enhance your holistic understanding, better position yourself on why you agree/disagree, and make informed decisions. You may also be surprised by how full-circle many highly debated issues are.

As a key value of Metaphysical Pilates, knowledge enhances everything we do, in and out of the studio. In a time of division, we encourage our community to stay informed. Diving into the factual evidence of the major distresses occurring in our world is an important first step in arriving at a peaceful and productive solution. However, more is needed; we strongly encourage our community to take action with the knowledge they hold.

Remember, knowledge is not just power; it's a responsibility. Use it wisely, and it will guide you to your highest self. 

With peace and love,

Marketing Director of Metaphysical Pilates
