  1. How you gonna break that cycle?
  2. On the 20th page GOD will reveal himself, the real GOD.
  3. Calling it now, this thread will run for 20 pages and end with the REAL TRUTH once and for all.
  4. Journal Review The journal was started on 28 September, 2019 and the above quote unedited is the original first post, the edit's in this colour are the review that I'm doing today.
  5. @Salvijus Thanks for contribution here @lmfao Thank you as well.
  6. @Amandine At least 50% of my posts on this forum would be a waste of your time reading! I try to keep my journal for the more meaningful content. I read a small bit of your long post an another section of the forum. It was very personal what you wrote and it's good you got some feedback. Sounds like you were raised in Scotland? My mum was born in Paisley not far from Glasgow. I went to Edinburgh a few years back for a weekend away and loved it. Your journal is a good reminder for me about goals. The mindful eating goal of yours is something I could probably do with taking a look at, as I am quite a binge eater. I put on 2 stone in the year that I have stopped drinking. Belatedly, and only very recently, I think I have got my carb/sugar binges better under control.
  7. Yes. Often do. I've meditated this way before as well now that I think about it.
  8. @Lento Yeh I hear you on that! And no, my meditation practice generally tops out at about 15-30 mins per day. You are quite right about well intentioned distractions getting in the way of taking action.
  9. Hey I really like your journal, but I've only skimmed it thus far. I've never ever seen a journal get such an attempted hijacking as yours did, and right at the start as well. I'm amazed you carried on, but am pleased you did. So from one alcoholic to another I wish you well (that's a JOKE)...... By navigating all that earlier crap you are already someone whom I'd like to follow a bit on here. I can so relate to the OCD elements. I'm on medication for OCD and it's no laughing matter. It's easy to for people to think "oh it's just a bit of OCD we all have it". Being obsessive can have it's benefits but the the compulsions can really mess things up. The checking, the rumination, its hard. I actually did have to stop alcohol 100% because I eventually gravitated to best part of 2 bottles of wine per night to cope with my anxiety problems, insomnia, and also the grief from losing my mother. I developed an actual dependence and addiction, but that doesn't mean to say you have this as well. I obsessed about alcohol and it stopped me working on my issues in a more healthy way, but you are not me and your story is very different. Anyway, I'll try and have a proper read and leave you be for now.
  10. Sometimes your posts very much suit your avatar picture on the left! A cheeky grin!
  11. @Leonora Ah! Gotcha!!! I should have guessed. I will take a look this evening, and thanks again.
  12. From this moment on or should we go back over our content and remedy retrospectively? So just by rearranging some pronouns we move closer to the Truth. What Truth? Your Truth? Leo's Truth?
  13. Wasn't focused on trying to help individuals? I was under the impression he was a major player in the field of neurosis, and what about all his shadow work stuff? Although I'm not looking at hiring him as my therapist These are both good questions, but I am a bit like that type of person who would answer with "I'll know when I get there" which I admit doesn't make things any easier for myself or others who are trying to advise Who is this J.P ? And thanks for replying, appreciate it.
  14. Never heard of it. Perhaps it can be used as a two person meditation, providing you can keep a straight face through it! I think I'd find it weird but that's because I haven't tried it. I guess it would be with someone who agrees it with you? Be tricky otherwise, you could end up on one of those YouTube prank video's ?
  15. @Sucuk Ekmek Thank you. Interesting. Will take a look.
  16. Thank you. Yes I know her channel. Good idea
  17. I don't know anything about this guy or what he does outside of his Leo content, but I've yet to meet anyone who focuses excessively on one human being that is a person at peace with themselves in anyway. Maybe this guy is doing well and is happy, I don't know, but my bet would be there is quite a lot of suffering going on for him. Certain things matter to this guy, and only he can really decide if it's a worthwhile use of his time and energy.
  18. 6000 calories worth of fruit. That's a heck of a lot of sugar though.
  19. Nice! See what you mean. And great quote as well.
  20. He teaches everything is imaginary for him. He is speaking on his own behalf and not for us. We have our own mind for that.
  21. @Lento I hear you on a lot of that my man. Truly I do. With Leo's videos I've only managed about 30 minutes here and there and mostly the old ones. I'm far from a Leo groupie. ?
  22. Now I am truly confused. Can an illusion be 100% real? Sometimes i wish Albert Einstein was still around and was on the forum to debunk a lot of this or set the record straight, either way. Or are we just trying to explain the unexplainable and want to come across as having the answer to things we cannot possibly have an answer for? ??
