Lol, this is pretty funny. It reminds me of the game Roy in Rick and Morty.

This. People love to take other people's problems and tell themselves that they're helping said problem by sharing their opinions on the matter.

Have you been able to astral project and/or travel to another place in your mind? Where have you gone and what have you experienced? Back when I meditated a lot I would travel in my mind to different places (idk if it was exactly astral projection - but to me in my mind, my consciousness was in another place). I often go to my childhood home and see every detail. I sometimes go up towards space, higher and higher until I'm so far away from the earth that the space around me no longer feels anything like earth's atmosphere but like something else entirely (this is probably the most interesting place I've gone). What are you experiences? Have you interacted with other beings in your travels?

@Matt8800 I guess that's cute? I think I would be creeped out lol. Have you gone traveling to places you've never been?

Some people believe that Karma for things you do in this life can affect you in this life or possibly a different life - not necessarily just your next one. I believe that it truly depends but the universe always finds a way to obtain balance so you should be very careful not to try to upset this balance

Definitely both. You should enjoy your life, teen or not as well as follow a healthy spiritual journey, teen or not

Oooh, I love this idea. A lot of techno songs have little excepts of sayings and Leo's videos would make for some great sound bites.

It wasn't too difficult because I knew how bad it was for me so once I decided that was it. And nothing other than deleting my accounts and staying strong to my decision. For me it wasn't the same at all. I unfollowed everyone that posted anything I didn't want to see as well months before I quit and it was better but it was nothing compared to cutting it out completely. I understand about the photos which is why I saved them all first. I lost contact with a lot of friends but that was okay because I stayed in contact with my real friends - less superficial I think. I totally agree. I found myself doing all kinds of (much healthier) activities in order to socialize that I wouldn't normally have done before.

What are daily practices that you believe stimulate the pineal gland, or "third eye"? What foods/chemicals should you avoid? Which ones have benefits? I was on benzos for years and when I got off of them, I felt like I was finally reconnected to the spiritual realm — truly awakening.

From quantum physics to the spiritual realm, what book has most altered your ideas on reality itself? For me I would say Dark Matter by Blake Crouch - it goes into some really mind-bending ideas about human consciousness in relation to alternate universes.

One thing that I've started to notice so much since I've become more "aware" is how disgustingly much subliminal messaging, symbolism, and other little tricks that appear in today's movies, shows, music, etc. Once you're more on the lookout for it, you will see it everywhere. An example of symbolism: Try to watch any American movie/show or read any book published by an American author that doesn't show/describe an American flag at least once. It's impossible. I remember reading a book published back in the 60s or 70s about subliminal messaging and what they could accomplish with subliminal messaging back in that era was already incredible. It makes me wonder how much more advanced/effective their messaging is today (subliminal or otherwise). I believe that simply being more aware of it is, in itself a defense against its effects. Of course the best defense would be to not consume the movies, shows, music, etc. in the first place, but it seems that it's becoming more and more unavoidable. I've recently changed almost all of my media consumption (movies, shows, music, and books mostly) to those created at least 20-30 years ago. This strategy would, of course, only work for so long. What are your thoughts on this?

You should provide some context so we know what you're talking about.

This has always been my dream lifestyle as well. Grow lots of food and cannabis (as well as all types of other healthy herbs and medicines), enough for all year round.

@The Dopamine Cleric Really interesting so far, thanks for the share! Thankfully Youtube allows you to speed up videos

I have dealt with a very similar OCD pattern in which I would constantly visualize something terrible happening (like me jumping off a building or robbers busting in my house with guns) and it would make me shutter, trying to 'violently' shake the thought from my head. I have never actually been suicidal or have had the fear of robbers invading my home — the thoughts would be like an OCD impulse designed to torture me. I realized that trying to shake the thoughts from my head whenever they would appear was only making it worse. Like others have already said — simply observing the thought when it came was the best way to truly realize that it was ridiculous, helping it to not keep appearing in my head. Now whenever a silly thought like that appears in my head, I ride it out and try to visualize the terrible scene morphing into something else — a colorful or psychedelic scene, for example — as I fall off the building I transform into a bird and imagine myself gliding peacefully through the sky.

I never said you shouldn't vote. It is true that I believe that voting (In the US anyways) is pointless (apart from benefiting the voter by letting them feel like they're doing something productive) because the system is so incredibly rigged.

I think one thing that people often underrate is "face-time". If you want to grow any relationship, you're going to need to spend time with the person/people. Communication is of course very important — however, communication can be just sitting at the park with the person enjoying the view and not saying anything.

Classic move — make a joke out of anything that threatens to actually change people's opinions away from the perfectly sculpted monolith of unconsciousness, destroying any chance of human autonomy. Birth of the term "woke".

Very inspiring video, thanks for the share! I love to see when people choose happiness over wealth.

@Nahm Wow, thank you. I'm flattered! And I agree — you don't find nearly as many people as you should of my age from my generation that are open-minded / interested in deep truths about reality. As for all the book suggestions, some really good stuff people — keep them coming!

I feel like you're trying to troll me but I wouldn't say that it's working because I truly don't understand what you're trying to say.

I don't get it..?

Super interesting concept. The end of that video tripped me the fuck out

I used LSD to get off of Xanax and I'd say it worked really well for me. Not sure about using it for caffeine, but with Xanax I was on it constantly taking more and more to outrun the tolerance for about two weeks. I personally wouldn't recommend to anyone to do that but I was pretty desperate to get off of benzos and it worked
