Rigel

I mean give & if it’s reciprocated, fantastic. If it’s not, fantastic. You aren’t diminished by or aggrandized in anyway. People can be socially anxious because they approach the interaction from a place of deficiency and are unconsciously looking for approval to fill it. Expecting approval from others is a form of taking. It’s transactional. I mean give & then receive the outcome in whatever form it takes. I don’t know, receiving & taking feel very different to me. Taking is selfishness & neediness. Receiving is reverence, gratitude & appreciation for the mirroring of your own loving output.

Just like anything you get good by doing it a lot with an intention of learning & mastering. Open mind Open heart; be emotional goddamn it Put yourself in uncomfortable situations until they are comfortable & then push it even further. Few people discussions -> crowd interaction -> public speaking. Get rid of all neediness. People will give themselves for free when you no longer need them to. Give & receive. Never take.

Mushrooms is a great hobby on top of of being a great psychedelic if you grow it!🍄‍🟫 and practically free

Jazz & Indian classical music is my go to. I cannot handle lyrical music when tripping.

They seem like 2 regular ass dudes to me. Who’s the first totally normal dude above totally normal Eckart Tolle?

The highest sleep score I ever got was 81. Usually under 80 even when I sleep 8+ hrs. I don’t understand how to max that out. Subjectively speaking it’s clear that I could be more rested so I am not surprised that I have bad sleep score. What I think is non negotiable to get half decent sleep is exercising. Cardio, strength & flexibility. But it clearly involves more than that. Haven’t figured out what that is yet.

Good coffee isn’t that bitter. Only over roasted, badly brewed coffee is.

I don’t like that teacher. It has abused me for years.

What is it about this community that we are not revolted by these teachings? I struggle to understand why most people would get outraged by these ideas. Or not give a fuck. That’s also a common reaction. It’s close mindedness but why are people close minded? Do they not understand that you can hear & entertain a thought without accepting or rejecting it? I have completely stopped mentioning Leo to anyone over time. It was never productive when I did in the past.

I always get a phase of pacing around my room & talking to myself like a lunatic when I am tripping. Yesterday that happened & I was acutely aware of the sheer bullshitery of it. I was talking for 3hrs straight & noticing that none of my wording of the insights I was having were the actual insights. There’s no work around consciousness but thinking is also consciousness. There’s a meta awareness to be had here. Thinking is not bad per say but sometimes only silence will do it.

You considered living in a big city? Driving there is annoying anyways. There should also be plenty of work opportunities. In which country are you?

GG! Cardio & strength training can get you so high. Much higher than nicotine ever could.

I got humbled here.

You’ll be fine. Soy is not going kill your gains.

Please tell me it’s clarinet.

Lovely! It’s such a fantastic tune to dip your toes in Jazz improvisation. Also because it’s so simple, you can reharmonize the heck out of it. AUTUMN LEAVES INFINITY!

« The falling leaves Drift by the window The autumn leaves Of red and gold I see your lips The summer kisses The sunburned hands I used to hold Since you went away The days grow long And soon I'll hear Old winter's song But I miss you most of all My darling When autumn leaves Start to fall »

That’s so sad 😭 I am sorry to hear that.

Fish is my jam. Best protein next to shrimp hands down.

All of them 😅

Bro just solved winter for all of us. I’ll keep my helmet on in the bus & subway as well just to be safe.

Did you watch the podcast he made with Leo? Good stuff

Oh you believe in plenty of fairy tales don’t get ahead of your skis.
