Absolutely. I think it's silly to have this fantastical idea of what we used to eat and then try and replicate it for health. I'm pretty sure it doesn't work the way we think it does in our heads like that.

I'm happy to see you are optimistic. Thank you so much for the response ❤

I'm sorry that you are having such a rough time, that sounds quite painful. My advice to you is take baby steps. Making this post is a sign you are going the right direction, reaching out is important. From the small bit you described here it sounds like a sort of obsessive-compulsive cycle. Obsessing about if you are lovable, and then getting relief from the obsessive thought by asking for validation. An answer may lie more in becoming aware of these thought patterns themselves, instead of simply loving yourself, as you say. Doing research into ocd cycles may help (not saying you "have ocd" just saying that topic may be helpful for you). Sending you love.

Makes sense. Thanks for the response. It is such a bad habit! I'm so glad you pointed that out. Lol

Nah. It's not fruit or meat. It's something else. I think a combination of things, most possibly the fact that we began cooking our food. It's pretty hard to say exactly what though.

@Lolo because leo does not support conspiracies.

@brugluiz what app is this?

The corona virus is a cold virus and isn't even that dangerous especially if one is healthy. I'm more concerned at how quickly we are willing to give up our rights to avoid its perceived threat.

My life purpose also has to do with beauty, at least, appreciation of beauty is my number one strength When I read your question my first thought was psilocybin!!!! The reason being, things can be soo beautiful, and also and maybe more importantly, it has forever shifted my perception of beauty and my ability to see it!!

I've been fighting myself really hard lately. I haven't been doing the things I know I need to be doing. I feel like to an extent, it's good not to push myself if I dont feel like it, but at this point I'm just totally resistant to creating change and exerting will power. Then, I spend lots of time mad at myself for not. It's hard to do this work and I'm over here having a pity party, over and over again.

Meditation can be used as a tool to calm the mind, make you more aware of the present moment and can overall make you happier. I think when Leo talks about meditation he refers to the awakening aspect of it. You may not be able to reach the same levels of awakening as you would be able to with psychs while meditating. So yea meditation is still important even if you arent having earth-shattering "aha!" moments each time.

@Nightwise thank you for the insightful response.

It makes perfect sense. Especially when he goes into what his core teachings are now going to be about. And how there are certain obstacles to overcome to see those things.

@Derek White This makes sooo much sense. Thanks for the perspective shift.

@d0ornokey thank you ❤

@Gili Trawangan building my business and meditating.

I love her work so much. A lot of what she deals with is childhood traumas and is very helpful.

@Thought Art Are you asking, what does it mean to Christians or what is a different/deeper interpretation of it?

@tedens Yes! Just want to make sure I'm teaching the right stuff.

Quickly sharing a couple of my experiences at a recent meditation course.

I think its healthy to critique a teacher, and also it's important not to worry too much about him and his life. Leo has percieved flaws. This doesn't necessarily make his teachings less valid however. Listen with a discerning heart and discover the truth for yourself.

@Cocolove Thanks for watching

@Space so awesome! I hope it goes well for you.

@Ya know if you feel like a victim, just accept that reality and dont worry if you should or shouldn't. Thanks for sharing your writing, I'm sorry you had such a horrible childhood and I bet you could use it for something good
