For some people it's great. For some it isn't. For some it's great for some time and then it isn't. There's no one size fit for all. Yes read the scientifique literature but more importantly listen to your body. What does it want right now? Does it want to fast. Does it want a salad, a mango, or big grass fed steak? The biggest concern that I have is not about which food is right or wrong but what is the quality of said food. Some vegans here will think that meat isn't healthy but there's a big difference between commercially raised and wild animal that you go hunt yourself. Same for the way veggies are grown, etc.

@Leo Gura if you decided to surrender at that moment and you really did merge into oneness for eternity would there still be a me grieving you? Cause there's probably some yogi in a cave somewhere that went for it at some point yet I am still here?

This one's funny?

I am doing a 30day cleanse beginning next week and documenting it on instagram to inspire people to be healthy!

Well you could stop it for a while and see how it goes. There's no need to do any of this If you don't want to. You might really dig the practices once you suffer enough. I agree with the folks up here also. Life purpose is huge. What are you passionate about?

Kryia is likely to help with that a lot IMO. I like to do deep breathing and hold at the end of my practice. I use the pressure to stretch that spine as much as it will go. Amazing.

I never heard it worded like this but it rings true for me thank you

check out Purium. All organic high quality superfood. I really like the powershake. Assuming you live in the US or Canada.

Practice, practice, practice. But you need to have a childlike wonder and love for the thing. You have most traction when in flow.

If you are to consume dairy make sure it's top quality, organic, grass-fed, non-pasturized.(Quality local farmer is best IMO) If you can't get your hands on that then I suggest you stay away from it.

Why are carrots great food for humans and rocks aren't? Sure biology, digestion, blablabla but really? It is the way it is I guess.

I have yet to find something which isn't

Yeah it's bullshit of course. Embrace the aspect of you that's afraid. You are totally justified to be afraid. This part of you just wants your attention don't push it away!

Stay hydrated

I developed this practice not to long ago where I would find one thing that I love about myself and one thing that I hate about myself and then I would contemplate and contrast both of those. Why do I love parts of myself and not other parts? What is the purpose of hating parts of me? Etc. Come up with your own questions. I like to look at myself in the mirror while I do that.

To me the ego is to be embraced. It is also you. There is not a "real you" and then "the ego" which is false and which you need to get rid of. Appreciate you for what you are; The whole of it. Even the "bad" stuff. Easier said than done tho. Which assumes that there's something that needs to be done. Which is not so sure. A living paradoxe that is.

Could you expend on that? I don't see a problem

I like to drink a hot beverage in the morning and prefer to exercise before I break my fast. As to what type of macros you should eat and when I would say experiment, and listen to your intuition cause it is going to be different for everyone.

Why do you want to quit?

Amen?

Check out Teal Swan she seems legit to me.

Love this guy I learn about him from the Certifiedhealthnut!

I think the main value that this forum provides is the diversity of perspectives so there's a huge yellow component to that.

@Byun Sean Very useful thank you

I am doing a 10day cleanse right now(Purium). Currently on day 3 and something interesting is happening. At first I thought that the most difficult thing about it would be the cravings for food but I get very little of that. Energy levels are normal I guess. The thing is it's very challenging emotionally. Kinda funny how having my physical body empty does the same thing to my emotional body. I feel like nothing is fulfilling right now. I get relief when I play music or do breath-work but it is short lived. As soon as I stop I feel emptier then ever. My approach right now is to do the emotional labor but I feel like I am hitting a wall over and over. I lay there feeling the emotion the best I can and asking myself why do I feel that way? What was the first time I felt that way? etc.(The whole shadow work thing) The only thing I get back from this inquiry is... well nothing. I can't come up with anything. I don't know what I want anymore I feel like I am avoiding the labor by actually trying to do it. My questions are: Can any of you relate to this? and what advice would you give regarding Shadow Work? Would be much appreciated?
