@Raptorsin7 Suffering led to an awakening for me...but im saying dry fasting isn't about suffering lmao cool but is this knowledge of brain and common sense actually yours or was it given to you by culture/society? Plenty of breatharians, and initiations happening all around the world today, even in America. Of course it isn't for everyone
-
@Preety_India believe what you wish...naturally i disagree There's a lot of knowledge out there, how much time have you put into researching?
-
wow look what i found, video of Robert Lockhart himself speaking about dry fasting among other things lol nonsense @modmyth Check out this video on fasting from a dude who lives to fast as a breatharian lol, he explains how and why it is done
-
Makes sense yeah. The point about dry fasting is important, most people who take it too far dont understand that a well hydrated body isn’t going to result in a dry mouth or feeling thirsty and without proper cellular hydration, it can be very dangerous to abstain from fluid consumption like drinking too much water can lead to health issues, even death I’ve done a few near 24 hr dry fasts to experiment Breatharian actually means fasting and hearing their knowledge on how to safely fast has been most interesting, also the focus on energy. I dig this guys content

You’re right about one thing, be it, the problem lies in thinking. It’s interesting to see the perceptions of this sad incident shared by the various agendas and systems of belief out there all using only the info they see fit for their point. Definitely was a big scare for the vegan communities, and new detox folk imo there’s plenty of better videos to get more details on the facts about this but I’ll Just share what his wife had to say and let you all do your own research: From his wife: "We’re so sorry to announce the passing of our dear father & husband Robert Lockhart who transitioned yesterday the 29th of November at 6:06pm at age 75. We can understand the disbelief of many who knew him, as he was so full of life. His daughters Tulani Lockhart, Meah Robertson and his wife Ree Anna cared for him for the weeks leading up to his death. We’ve had many messages from his friends, loved ones and the community sharing their love and support, thank you so much to everyone for their kindness. Rob was a great man who loved to help and mentor others. His long standing career over 45 years as an excellent Chiropractor impacted many. His great passion however was his diet, nature cure and being an advocate of healthy living. Both in eating raw foods, educating about physical activity and the human frame. We all know he was the best at handstands! We’d like to clarify the chain of events that lead to his body shutting down, as it wasn’t just one thing. As you may or may not be aware Rob has eaten only a raw food diet for nearly 40 years. Over the last 10 years he significantly decreased his intake of water, drinking only minimal coconut water or freshly squeezed juice, quoting that he got all the water he needed from the high intake of mainly fruits he was eating. In the last 5 years he commenced “dry fasting” for periods of time which meant no food or fluids including water for extended periods, up to 48 hours. He would also intermittently fast each day no food no water for roughly 19 hours with a 5 hour eating window. The doctors believe this had done significant damage to his kidneys over the years as scans & tests performed showed atrophy, scarring and significantly reduced function. Rob’s immune system was suffering and he picked up a chest infection from a bacteria called Melioidosis, this is found in the soil in tropical climates. He was a avid planter of rare fruits and was constantly tending to his trees & orchid. This contributed to a bad cough and mucous on the lungs which he said “I’m just eliminating, don’t worry”. He then proceeded to do a dry fast of 72 hours no food no fluids, which pushed his body too far which he admitted. In the subsequent weeks he was quite debilitated. His kidneys started to shut down, which then meant he couldn’t clear the fluid from his lungs, and his electrolyte balance was thrown out. Having a proper balance of electrolytes including potassium ensures the heart beats properly. Combined with his lungs not getting adequate oxygen due to the infection which was later diagnosed as pneumonia also put more pressure on his heart. After much coaxing he reluctantly went to hospital for treatment as he was on the verge of complete kidney failure and a cardiac arrest at home. He accepted testing and treatment in hospital. Their quality of care & respect for Robert was amazing and blessed us with another 2 weeks with him. Last Saturday he suffered with two massive cardiac arrests then was placed in ICU on life support. We were all hoping he would recover, however over the week unfortunately he didn’t regain consciousness (although we believe he could hear us at times) there were no significant signs of neurological activity. His organs including lungs, kidneys, liver and heart continued to fail. In the last week they had him on dialysis, a ventilator and medication to keep his heart beating. His condition continued to deteriorate and we were advised that there was no treatment options to fix his enlarged heart (cardiomyopathy) and leaking valves with an ejection fraction of 15-20% at most with medication stimulation. Out of respect for his wishes we (Tulani, Rheana, Meah and the doctors) made a joint decision to let him go peacefully without being plugged into any machines or medications. It has been a very hard time. However we believe he was in the end happy to be set free. We hope that everyone can respect him and his memory lovingly without judgment or blame. We’ll be having a celebration of life for Rob next Sunday the 8th of December at 1:00pm, 66 Johanna Road Trinity Park. If you’d like to come to say your goodbyes you’re more than welcome. To honor Rob we’ll have a big fruit party (no alcohol please). Feel free to message Meah Robertson, Tulani Lockhart or Ree Anna if you’d like any additional information. Much love Meah, Tulani and Rheana ❤️"

Wow yup I have a friend who didn’t learn until her early 30s and it blew my mind how much fear she had around learning Lovely. I appreciate this information. Im currently looking for a temp holiday position to earn some quick cash so I can afford to do some post holiday visits/travel/fun I have been part time self employed for a few years, just working with a few companies to find clients but I know I didn’t make the most of it and became too dependent on the app/sites I work with, living with family enabled me to do this. And it isn’t the work I wish to continue so I’m feeling quite uncertain, so figure I’ll go down an avenue that will improve my social skills like sales

I’m the same way man. Actually exploring how creating habit allows for the spark of necessary enthusiasm/inspiration ive quit so many journals on here, second guessing, judging myself, never satisfied with the purpose haha shit doesn’t need to be so Gawd damn serious and it feels necessary to even give myself permission to share both the positive and negative struggle/emotions/guilt/shame/fear etc because it’s empowering and whole, just part of actualizing. How would this impact those who read the journal? It simply gives permission to be real, or even begin to release a suppressed emotion perhaps all right I’m done haha, I’d like to see you bring the clown out to play ? much love ?

@Key Elements cool. Would you say mastering the basics of a particular skill results in a download, hardwiring the mind, like riding a bicycle then flow is honing or settling into a relaxed state (backseat driving), able to bask in the awareness and make spontaneous/creative adjustments, improvements, and intuitive foreshadows without hesitation/second thought?

@Nickyy Is there a “best modality” for health in the shift to an integral society? (If this makes any sense haha) I would think the best modality is going to provide the greatest relief for the far sides of the spectrum

ask this in the mirror ? “This reality isn’t big enough for the both of us!” -

I desire myself around all freaking day guys, it’s literally a dream, call me selfish if you want, that’s just the story or game you have chosen to play don’t cling too hard, I swear it’s safe to let yourself go “think of the children!” “silly wabbit, tricks are for kids!” -
@Consept Nice, turning judgment around back on itself
-
Ha yeah two angles to see the patterning, like other optical illusions @EddieEddie1995 I think you’re spot on
-
these rebuttals are pretty pointless yet entertaining none-the-less food politics anyone? choosing a side always leads to controversy and a loss of focus of the main point of vitality
-
Quinoa, buckwheat spirulina Vegges, rye bread, more greens, fruits, consume less meals, look into meal prep for at least part of the week
-
don’t need a reason So many ways and reasons to quit or change diets. The only right way is meeting our current beliefs and needs or life direction/purpose. If these are consciously chosen and clearly understood, very little friction, resistance, or suffering is created think of it like giving up chocolate or candy on Halloween. It’s unimaginable for a child who’s went out then consumed candy for several Halloweens dressing up and all, but at a certain age of physical/psychological growth, the desire is gone/released even if the fond memories remain. All food and drugs if consumed consciously can and will “get old” eventually and can be released if no longer desired

cool stuff! my guess.... Spoiler alert: Our mind looks for the pattern, the clue is in our breath that the dots aren’t actually moving anywhere, it’s a flash back and forth between two sets of dots

@CelticQueen17 it seems you would benefit from taking a break, alone time to take a step back from yourself and the relationship. To take a step back means an objective view of yourself with/out judgement, to understand your attraction and how you’d like to go about implementing healthy boundaries for a safe relationship in the future. Generally the aspect of him you feel is irresistible tends to be the shadow aspect of yourself you’ve yet to integrate Get you and your children safe first and foremost, but don’t neglect the inner work! I recommend the.holistic.psychologist on insta and youtube for guidance!

@Raptorsin7 @NoSelfSelf hell yeah, reminder: it ain’t about you so enjoy all the synchronicity, while in the zone I’m enjoying every beautiful play no matter what team does it ? ”check youself b4 you wreck yoself”

Yeh...there’s no ‘how to’ ? so I think it’s best to relax and trust whatever happens is meant to happen, stay open to learning from it in my experience the more I try to control an outcome or plan a meditative state rather than setting a simple intention, the more struggle arises lol As @LfcCharlie4 says, there’s only now so make every moment as enjoyable as possible

Perhaps it's something you aren't doing when you're playing well Full on absorption baby, why most under-perform under pressure is they can't release that pressure, the energy is blocked within, not flowing through so they end up letting it out in bursts and it gets real messy how to truly be complacent with yourself and everyone else out on the court?
-
yay this is a fun topic. Take in the whole experience, there's hardly any reason to "think" much so be quick to brush away any patterns that attract too much attention, like judgement/frustration/fear All energy/emotion is your friend so put them all on your side for the duration of the dance (game). The zone is there, always, it's you. Expectation and fears can be laughed at, if not ignored, and if something feels off, go back to the breath, feel the calmness as you reunite with the energy
-
focusing on the lack even subconsciously, can keep it at a distance if you can dream it, you’ve lived it! start dreaming, yes even day dream, play around with the person you see yourself as with a girl friend, and finally focus on the feeling (of being this you who feels absolutely complete) Now bring the same vibration to your physical experience (every action and interaction)

Sit with the emotions/sensation, find out what makes it such, and see what creates the control
