Na fara tsayawa paddleboarding ba don ina son zama ɗan wasa ba. Na fara ne saboda ni
sarari da ake bukata – don 'yantar da sarari daga hayaniya, allon fuska da rayuwa cikin gaggawa. Abin da na samu a kan
ruwa ba kawai allo na katako da filafili ba ne, amma salon rayuwa daban.
Lokacin da na taka a kan jirgin ruwa a karon farko, Na tuna yadda babu kwanciyar hankali komai ya ji.
Ruwan yana motsawa a ƙarƙashina ta hanyar da ba zan iya hangowa ba, kuma hankalina shine na takura kowace tsoka. I
fadi cikin yan mintuna kadan. Amma lokacin da na koma kan allo, wani abin mamaki
ya faru: Na yi dariya. A karon farko cikin dogon lokaci, Na ji annashuwa game da gazawa.
Yi nazari da sannu a hankali
Filin jirgin ruwa ya tilasta ni in rage gudu ta wasu hanyoyi. A kan ƙasa, Na saba sarrafa da yawa
ayyuka a lokaci guda – duba wayar hannu ta, considering the deadline, and planning the
next step before completing the current task. On the water, this mentality doesn’t work at all. If I
hurry, I will lose my balance. If I resist the movement of the water, I will fall down.
Standing on the wooden board taught me to listen – wind, water flow and my own breathing. I
started rowing early in the morning. At that time, the water was very calm, and the world felt like
it was not finished. Those quiet times became a ritual. No notice, no expectation. It’s just
motsa jiki, breathing and reflection.
A different kind of fitness
Before playing paddleboard, my idea of fitness was always related to intensity: more difficult
motsa jiki, longer running, and measurable progress. SUP changed that point of view. It
strengthens my core, improves my posture, and enhances my endurance, but it never feels
punished. Maimakon kirga adadin kuzarin da aka ƙone, Na fara kula da yadda nake ji
jiki.
Wani lokaci, filafili wani nau'in motsa jiki ne. A wasu lokuta, yana yawo kawai, zaune akan a
katako katako, barin kafafuna na ja cikin ruwa. Na koyi cewa motsa jiki ba koyaushe yana da ƙarfi ba
don zama tasiri. Wannan canjin sannu a hankali yana shafar yadda nake bi da sauran sassan rayuwata – aiki, abinci, da
ko da hutawa.
kadaici da haɗin kai
Daya daga cikin mafi m kyaututtuka na kwalkwalin jirgin ne ma'auni tsakanin kadaici da
haɗi. Shi kadai akan ruwa, Ina jin 'yancin kai sosai. Na koyi yin imani da kaina – tawa
daidaitawa, hukunci na, da kuma iyawar da zan iya jure wa yanayi masu canzawa.
A lokaci guda, filafilin jirgin yana haɗa ni da wasu a cikin shiru da rashin tilastawa. Magana
a bakin teku ya bambanta da magana a cikin daki mai cunkoso. Mutane suna magana game da iska
yanayi, hanyoyin da aka fi so, da taron fitowar rana. Babu gasa, kawai raba kuma
godiya.
Yadda SUP ya zama hanyar rayuwa
Yayin da lokaci ke tafiya, paddleboard ba shine abin da nake ba “yi”, amma abin da na gina rayuwata. Na shirya a
tafiya zuwa tafkin da bakin teku. Na tashi da wuri na sha ruwan sanyi. Na sauƙaƙa jadawali na haka

Wannan canjin salon rayuwa ba shi da tsauri, amma barga. Na tsinci kaina ina sha'awar ƙarancin kuzari kuma

Darasi na ruwa
Komai ka kawo, ruwa yana da hanyar yin tunani baya. A cikin kwanaki masu damuwa, yana tunatar da ni

Na koyi cewa daidaito ba iko ba ne, amma daidaitawa. Allon dara ba ya daina motsi, Say mai
