Psychedelics just expand your perspective. How you choose to move from there is independent of them.

Too real

I’m 34. I was raised religious and always felt a strong connection to spirit. I smoked 4-aco-dmt at 19 and that really changed my perspective. I did more psychedelics and felt like I started to understand the “connection”. At 22 I attended a 10-day vipassana retreat and that’s when I realized I was on a serious path. That’s kinda how everything started for me.

There’s something to be said about “layers” as well. Maybe you have broken through one layer of development and think that’s it but then later on a new layer of that issue reveals itself. It just means you are getting better and better, learning new ways to work through the problem, not that you are falling back.

Energy healing is definitely real…just probably not this haha

Feeling awesome can come from other things and it’s not limited to just understanding reality

Wait JP says that? I mean being human means being creative in some way or another. Are you wanting to be more creative?

I’ve had 12 ayahuasca ceremonies and it opened me up to all sorts of energies. It’s been a strange 2 years…

@Santiago Ram duude you have to be willing to do hard things. Practice makes perfect. You can start by doing things that require a small amount of self control and work your way up.

I had the craziest awakenings at a vipassana retreat many years ago. I was already in a sensitive place due to other things(ahem) but yah I was completely sober the entire retreat and I experienced some pure bliss moments(insane) and also very uncomfortably awoke fully to how I had been living a lie among other things. The next retreat I did though, nothing happened (no crazy awakenings).

Reading this totally lit me up

I would focus more on what you want to see in the world and how you can contribute to that than figuring out why Leo is the way he is ❤️

It’s just his style 💞

Check out a Vipassana 10-day silent retreat in your area if you’re looking for a really serious introduction to meditation.

This is a pretty common complaint here tbh.

@Chadders three things come to mind: lsd does affect your serotonin may not have been pure could just be where you’re at emotionally regardless of the lsd

I think this sentence is where the truth of this post lies. Personally, I sought and sought for years looking for the thing that would finally make me happy until I realized: shocker! I could actually just be happy right now. But I kinda don’t know if I would have been able to realize that if I hadn’t been seeking for so long. So I still see the value in seeking. That being said there’s still so much more to go and it’s not necessarily that simple.

Do you have anything you enjoy doing?

I would freak the eff out tbh. Probably wouldn’t be able to “stay calm” or anything. Would swear off drugs forever. Find a really good lawyer.

But I don’t wanna!!

ClearSpace app was reallyy helpful for me. It makes you do an activity like take a deep breath or pushups before going on your apps and then you choose a time limit. The free version gives you one app so if you find you’re really addicted to tik tok for example you can set it to that one otherwise the paid version you get more.

Aw yeah I know it’s really hard to make sense of all this human stuff we go through. I just have this viewpoint because I went through it myself. Lots of psychedelics, therapists, self help. I was lucky though because I eventually found a healer who really helped me work through my childhood traumas. It’s a journey. I have a really good feeling that you’re going to have a breakthrough and have a better understanding of how to heal more deeply though. Bless you <3

I don't know you or your full story and whatever but I wanna add that trying to heal yourself with psychedelics is a slippery slope unless you have professional healing experience. Psychedelics are not inherently healing. They can give you deep insights about life but without knowledge of how to apply those lessons there's a big potential to get stuck in this loop of having crazy experiences, but staying in an overall lower vibration. Again, I don't know your particular story but wanted to add my two cents.

Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; Matthew 5:44 I mean come on does it get much better than that?
