Master the 5 Senses, Change Your World
Just thinking about unrolling my yoga mat starts the Pavlov's dog sensing process for me and my body. I can hear the stickiness of my mat unfolding and the pop it makes when it lands in the ground; the feeling of my bare feet on the slightly grooved hardwood floor; the familiar smell of the worn-in rubber against my skin. I can almost feel my brain shut down and my mental focus draw inward.
As we delve into the deeper levels of a Yoga practice-- beyond the poses and breath-- we arrive to the practice of sensory observation, pratyahata. “Pratyahara” means “gaining mastery over external influences," or, understanding & mastering the five senses.
Humans operate just like Pavlov's dogs in our ability to be both physically and mentally overcome by our senses-- by fascination, desire, or even obsession-- without consciously knowing it. The smell of danger, the taste of success, difficult to swallow-- each of these common sayings remind us of the power of our senses.
If you're like me, and I think most people are, you are committed to finding a flow and ease in your life. Conflict and struggle may be things you naturally avoid while you look to build relationships that are positive and mutually beneficially with the world around you. While that may be the overall goal, it can sometimes be harder to achieve than we would like. Being the vastly dynamic humans that we are, we are each uniquely coded up with our own experiences, memories, and ideas.
Even if two people are strongly committed to peace at their core, interactions don't always unfold that way. I believe this is a result of many underlying influences of our senses. Have you ever been in a room with someone you are ready to release a conflict with and before you even speak to each other your whole body starts to rush with energy?
Whether it's their stress you can smell or the outline of their posture you can see, it's likely that your body is actually sensually remembering a situation of stress and is reacting to a memory being triggered. Take deep breaths and remember that this moment can be different than the past. Then ask yourself, "why am I feeling this way?" The questioning is what makes us different than the furry, sense-forward companions we love. Questioning is a tool we have that can clear a lot of unwanted experiences both before and after they happen.
While dogs aren't known to ponder life's path to Samadhi, or ultimate bliss, that is also one of the many reasons that we love them so much, too. Their pure experience and engagement with the world instead of analyzing is beyond refreshing. So while inquiry and reflection are a big part of the process of yoga, at the end of the day we are just trying to become more present-- to release old patterns that are holding us back from being fully here, right now, ready to experience this moment as it is. So I'll keep savoring the sensory process of unrolling my mat for now, dancing in the evolution of the path toward enlightenment, however long it takes.

I can rewire a human brain, course through the most sensitive neural pathways, and restore life with steady hands and a sharp scalpel. But it would appear none of those prepared me for the horror of a hardware wallet that had decided it wanted to self-destruct.
It had been years since my Ledger device had sat comfortably in my drawer, unvexed and pristine, like a relic from my earlier Bitcoin investment days. Then came the fateful evening when I decided to switch it on-just to check on my stash. That is when I got greeted by an error message so incomprehensible that it could as well have been written in ancient hieroglyphics.
At first, I kept calm. I had been in life-and-death situations before-surely I could troubleshoot a problem with my wallet. Rebooting? Nothing. Firmware reset? Even worse. With every attempt, my precious $680,000 worth of Bitcoin seemed to slip further from my grasp. The real panic set in when I realized that I had stored my recovery phrase somewhere “safe”-so safe, in fact, that even I couldn’t remember where it was.
Hours of frantic searching, multiple YouTube tutorials, and a last-ditch effort to reach out to Ledger support resulted in one grim conclusion: “Your funds may be irretrievable.” As a neurosurgeon, I’m used to bad news—but this? Unacceptable.
That is when I discovered Digital Tech Guard Recovery. A little skeptical I was-if they couldn’t help me, a manufacturer of the device, then how would anyone else? I had nothing to lose. The moment I reached out to them, I knew I had done the right thing: professional, transparent, confident that they could recover my lost Bitcoin.
They basically performed some kind of digital wallet emergency surgery, getting everything back in six days. Through what can only be described as magic, by way of forensic techniques, they bypassed corruption and extracted my private keys and every Satoshi, to boot. If it stopped there, that would’ve been great; then they walked me through how to properly secure my assets going forward-no more “too safe to find” backups.
I may be the expert in the operating room, but when it comes to resuscitating a dead crypto wallet, Digital Tech Guard Recovery is your team on call. Cold storage has failed; Don’t try to self-operate, just get the pros in before your Bitcoin flatlines.
In December 2024, I experienced a major setback when over $1,000,000 worth of BTC and USDT was stolen from my trading account. I had entrusted a well-known broker, an influencer in the industry, with managing my digital assets and reinvesting the proceeds from the sale of my house. After weeks of frustration and searching for answers, I found ICC Services. Their team was incredibly professional, reviewing my case and quickly developing a recovery plan. Within just two days, they successfully recovered my stolen assets. The process was smooth, and their dedication was evident. If you’ve lost access to your wallet or been a victim of fraud, I highly recommend ICC Services for their efficient and reliable recovery solutions. They truly have your back!
