  1. Here in israel crude oil arrived to the beaches. I helped cleaning it because I'm working in the nature reserves. After 3 days of breathing it I feel a headace and stuck in my head. Day after and I still feel headace. Hard for me to think, focus, feel. I'm agitated. what do you recomend me to do? I don't think I breathed in alot but I feel like it caused harm to my brain and body. I read that the brain detoxifies itself in sleep and exercise makes the process faster.


  2. Highly sensitive person is a term I brought from Elaine N. Aron's work. You can use it other ways, but that's what I meant.

     @Nahm  There is what is, ok, no beliefs. But- my situation is that I am very overwhelmed by people and situations and I really have social anxiety and fear of being harmed. I am very stressed and my whole body hurts. my mind is very foggy, can't think clear, see clear, percieve clearly, I don't feel GOOD! I am willing to do whatever it takes for feeling GOOD. So I am getting advice from what resonates and going in that direction. By levels I just meant that your answers tell me to recognize the truth but in reality there is a path you have to go through to get there. You told us your story and it didn't just happen one day, you had a process. I feel like you know this already, and we understand each other, but I am just expressing myself to help myself and others who resonate. Love to everybody here

    Believing a conceptual thought, about comparing selves, is conceptualizing vs direct experience.

    I feel special, with spiritual abilities that few others have. But I DON'T know.

    in the sense there isn’t anything which needs to be escaped from, avoided, or coped with, and there isn’t anyone which has to be anything. 

    This is true but there is also value on working towards self actualization( the work). And how does it feel to not care about anything? I'd like to hear your perspective.

    No one is more or less special.

    YOU ARE SPECIAL ;)


  4. @Nahm Ok I understand. If you know CBT is all about recognizing the relationship between thought, emotion and behavior and changing your feelings by changing the thought. What you are saying is like to fake it until you make it, so you express the higher emotion and then in accordance with that your feeling, thought and behavior changes. By expressing you are referring to visualizing or to physically or could be both? you try to let that emotion 'pop' up by 'controlling' it? Ok maybe I am asking about the small details but I want to hear your perspective :)

    I though there were bad thoughts and negative feelings too

    You mean you thought the sensitivity was bad thoughts and feelings?

    I am also very sensitive and I have learned coping mechanisms from middleschool but I was thinking it was only me and I thought I was special. Now I know you and others exist;)

    We have to be spiritual because of the sensitivity.


  5. I exercise, do yoga before sleep( with breathing). Actually I started to work in nature cleaning reserving cause I need to move my body, have routine and end lazyness. It's so beautiful there But I can't see the beauty of it( like I used to). I used to practice mindfullness in the day so I can incorporate it to the work for now. I am focused on feeling better now, in the future LP. The problem is I feel strong fear being around others, and feeling good for me means being alone. I don't know if that's a good idea cause I can go crazy. Something interesting also is I realized after I change like in the 5 last years my family say what's wrong with you are you ok? They think because I don't smile and I am serious I am wrong. No! I am just "progressing in the work", and feeling better. I myself now am part of the "come and suffer together" society. I know I don't belong there. People "enjoying" when other people suffer with them, they don't feel alone, but they pull down the ones who try to "get out". 

    By the way are you Highly sensitive? Cause you have to be! Will love reading your upcoming book.

    I am just talkin:)


  6. I am planning to go to a rebirthing session with a therapist( it's like shamanic breathing, for aprox. 1 hour). Iv'e done shamanic breathing at home a couple of times but my family worried for me and I myself got affraid as they were highlighting the dangers of it. Actualy later Me and mom went to a rebirthing seminar and experienced it together. I  was feeling no emotions because I was on the psych drug but my whole body was vibrating. Now I am Kinda wanting crying but don't cause of social conditioning, But I cry Quietly in my room everyday. That's why I want to go there to cry and release.

    All roads lead to the body releasing conditioning, some cries, more insights, more clarity, some really amazing feelings, and making a dreamboard. Try therapy, meditation, releasing conditioning, & a dreamboard.  You can do anything that feels good to you. Maybe exorcising, singing, writing. Anything. Look forward to experiencing all or any, it’s all for your feeling better. 

    :) yup I got it.


  7. @Nahm I already read the article in the website, that's why I was askin. I understand it's as simple as being mindful of the feelings and thought and recognizing your current emotion, letting yourself with allowing and letting come and go and spontansly lift your thoughts to more positive and your emotions up the scale. Or are you analyzing it with the rational mind, and rewiring to a more acceptable functioning self image?( I know it's not, but it's the psychological regular therapy)

    I reccomend TLC( THERAPUTIC LIFESTYLE CHANGE) for dealing with depression:

    1. Omega 3 EPA 2000mg every day with meal.

    2. Exercise- best aerobic every day 

    3.Engaging activity/stop rumination

    4. sunlight( personally recommend being in nature)

    5. get quality sleep

    6. social connection with loved ones

    here's the book:https://www.amazon.com/Depression-Cure-6-Step-Program-without/dp/0738213888

     

    you can use a psychologist also.

    good luck! 

    my most practical lesson I learned from the book is "Don't think, do". tell this to yourself whenever you are ruminating. You can transform, you are capable of anything! Never Give up!

     

     


  9. @Nahm I read it and it sounds like what you do is like meditation because you let go and allow good thoughts to come. you don't do a psychological therapy , because you are not resolving your problems, you are just feeling in the present moment. I know it is good, but I think because I have 'deep' stuff I also need other therapy( you can't boil everything down to this...)

    And This. ?

    @Nahm wow! good video. I am not familiar with the work of Abraham Hicks but seems like you have been influenced by him a lot. I like this approach but I know that from ken wilber's work he says that meditation alone and in Hick's language the practice of feeling good will make your response to a situation where you are neurotic worse. The thing is when you ignore all the bad feelings and focus on the good feelings you certainly change a lot for the positive but sometimes you are becoming very very neurotic and with toxic psychology. At least that's what I have experienced, because I was in this path for a few years, and I reach a very 'good ' feeling consistently and saw beauty all day long and I was like you said "feeling refreshing, clearer, looser, not so ‘practical’, more wavelike, flow, naturally concentrated & energetic, a mellow yet strong vitality of life". But the thing is I was having bigger social anxiety and thus because I was focused on feeling good I stopped almost entirely to interact with people. I was all day with myself, basking in the good feeling and doing my work, which was at that time a degree in computer science and playing the piano. But It all backfired as you can see. I was bullied in school and I was having trauma from childhood and I was really suffering in the social environments and I just found a way out for a couple of years, but I still didn't heal fully. Life is just so complex
