Which practices do you consider to fit in well with day to day workings and why?

For example, Crowley gives Ashtanga as a partner to daily practice as the excersize it gives is benificial, am unsure but I think his courses have people practicing yoga within a circle of invoked forces but still, outside of Crowleyan schools of thought there are a myriad of Yogic styles that better suit peoples intentions (excuse the pun)... Kriya for example has intresting parallels to magick and would work well as does Qi Gong for obvious reasons.

All in all how do people feel about complimenting their practice with other art forms? Many would state to not take up anything other than that outlined and theres the real risk one may actually be wasting time or working against ones own intentions in the process while others reccomend it, as per Crowley and heads of other temples.

Opinions?

Peace

Journal writing is often recommended in conjunction with the work, but that can be expanded to anything like drawing, freewriting, sculpting or any other abstract form of art. All forms of art help a person get into touch with their personal creativity. Other activities that would help would be martial arts or qi gong, yoga, physical activities that require a sort of mental discipline. On the other side of the equation algebra, geometry and anything that requires the manipulation of numbers and or figures would also be fruitful things for a magician to grasp.
