@Matt8800 Do you know a powerful practice to strengthen/heal the body? I was diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder that causes the loss of muscle mass and strength. I started doing some exercices suggested in John Kreiter's Magnum Opus in addition to my daily meditation session, but would like to know if you can recommand something else. I thank you for all the infos you share here.

@Michael569 Ok cool, good to know!

@Dimi I really appreciate your help, thank you for all the infos and the links! I will try a plant based diet and see how that goes. On that basis I could also start a new more radical cleansing process like the Morse protocol or try fasting. In the future I pm you, if I have any questions.

@Michael569 Yep… you may be right.

@Chi_ Just watched the video, thank you for posting it. Unfortunately I'm not in Munich this weekend, but I will look for an other opportunity to attend an angamardhana course.

As I mentioned in a post before I have to deal with a genetic muscle disease (FSHD), which causes the loss of muscles primarily in the upper body. Therefore I’m looking for spiritual practices/techniques to strengthen my body or maybe even heal it – western medicine classifies this disease as uncurable. Until now I established a daily meditation and hatha yoga practice (120 minutes in total) for approximately a year. I notice an improvement of my concentration abilities, had some minor energetic/emotional releases and expansions in consciousness, but can’t really see any benefits for my physical condition. Recently I started researching the occult. I bought John Kreiter’s Magnum Opus and am currently reading it. I already do the full glass of water breathing before my meditation and yoga sessions and am eager to start further exercises to accumulate energy. If you are aware of practices or techniques, that increase healing abilities, I would very much appreciate it, if you let me know. Thank you for your help. ?

@Consilience Cool, I'll try this out. With as a form of a spiritual practice I suppose you mean practicing very consciously like paying attention to the breath etc?

@Dimi@Dimi Here is one question for you : Do you know if there is any evidence that a specific diet can positively influence a genetic disease? Doctors told me that there is no such evidence – at least not for FSHD. At the same time they told me to not only trust their opinion, but to try and see for myself what could possibly improve my condition.

@Consilience Thank you for your reply. The doctors also encouraged me to do some lifting. Besides my daily yoga practice I go two times a week to the gym. I train mainly with fitness machines like the butterfly or butterfly reverse etc. Do you think barbell training is better?

@ajasatya I will look into Ashtanga Yoga, thank you.

@Dimi I am going to read the articles, thx. I tried already the Morse protocol (only raw vegetables, fruits and nuts) for six weeks straight, but I lost weight and also muscles to the point, that I stopped it for now. I know that this loss could be a sign of the cleaning process, but I didnt have any typical cleaning signs like mucus leaving the body as mentioned in his book (The Detox Miracle Sourcebook). I think my diet is already quite good, and maybe my expectations were too big. What I experienced whereas was a higher level of energy and more clarity of the mind especially during my daily meditation sessions.

@Navya_Sharma Thx for the reference. Already read about it.

@Hellspeed Thank you for your explanation. I will now have to find out, what works best for me.

@Hellspeed Thx for you advice. Can you say a few words on how the healt of the gut is connected to muscle loss?

@Michael569 Thx for the tip. This sounds promising. I will definitely do further research.

Is it possible to plug mushrooms, if they are dried and grinded?

lol, I meant if you boil the powder, so that you can extract liquid like Nahm said. Even if it doesn't increase the potency, maybe it's a way to avoid possible nausea?

Hi guys, I’m very excited to share my first mushroom experience with you, that ultimately was the reason for me to join this forum and take consciousnesswork a lot more serious than before. Before the trip I was meditating approximately five days a week for 15 minutes for about a year. Four months ago, after a year of doing intense research on psychedelics, I finally convinced myself to give mushrooms a try. I took them with a very good friend, who is in psychedelics for about 10 years, in a safe place and his girlfriend was tripsitting us. I knew that the coming up could be rather exhausting and challenging, especially the moment, where you have to fully surrender to the experience, because in daily life I actually like to be in control of things. After a while I started to fight against the experience until the moment, I finally was able to convince myself, that if I was going to lose my mind, that would just be ok – my friends’ girlfriend was sitting next to me, grounding me with a few hugs. After that things started to become very interesting. I became aware of the fact, that every step in my life, every struggle, every success, every emotion (good or bad), every thought, every dream and so on was only experienced to push me to this exact moment, were I was becoming aware of all this. And this exact moment was just perfect, in fact it merely was. I looked at my friends and was absolutely shocked of my previous ignorance. Though the most amazing thing was, that ‘me’ experiencing this, felt like (finally) coming home. I had the insight, that somehow, I knew ‘all this’, but had forgotten everything about it and my job for the future is to come back to this ‘state’, until I ultimately get it fully. The day after the trip I felt mentally and physically very refreshed, but during the evening, I had sort of a panic attack, because I felt so tight and reduced in my body. Looking at the world through my eyes, thought this limited perspective, seemed so strange to me. The next day I concluded instinctively that to integrate this experience, I had to take my meditation practice to another level. I began to meditate 30 minutes every single day and a month ago I increased it to 40 minutes. Never missed a day since the trip. I also started doing yoga for half an hour every morning directly after getting up. And last but not least I undertook a marathon of absorbing content from this website – by the way thx a lot for the amazing stuff shared here – and registered to the forum. Greetings from Munich to the world.
