@Lyubov CBD Oil, Magnesium, Lion's Mane & Teas like Chamomile will help you relax. No screens near bed, or at least wear blue light glasses from the evening. No Caffeine after like 12/1 PM, and if you are drinking it add in L-Theanine to help smooth the 'high.' Meditation & Relaxation before bed also helps, also things like warm baths. Oh and exercise- every single day, your body craves movement. If you have an office job, every 25-30 mins do some movement, and of course workout!

Great thread, love to see this! Have you moved on & started looking for more meaningful connections / Relationships? I tried the whole Rotation / ONS / FWB stuff and it always felt empty, deep connections are SO much better. But, you have to learn this stuff to even have a chance of developing a deep connection!

@Gidiot Thanks for the response! Yes, I agree RE: do we need currency? BUT, we could only do a China like system when corruption & power hungry leaders are not in charge, right now it would be abused- you disagree with me, you don't get to feed your family etc, again I feel we're not ready for that. With Banking I highly recommend reading about the Federal Reserve and how corrupt the banking system is, in terms of 'Conspiracies' it's the one that certainly has a lot of validity to it, as quite literally debt & the banking system leads to many of the issues we see today. Say you loan a friend £1000 to start a business, you wouldn't then ask for £1200 back would you? Problem is most 'bankers' don't want to admit this devilry as they make MILLIONS from it. Yeah, I feel we will always need some form of exchange, even in Turquoise, maybe not money, but something I'd imagine, but who knows. Agree with LOA, some Non-Duality teachers like Francis Lucille talk about the Law of abundance, he even states it as a pre-requisite before one begins truly teaching Advaita, albeit his standards are very high, which I think is good with the 1000s of half baked teachers out there these days. Yeah. Spiritual wealth / Law of abundance, seeing money as something positive you receive for providing value. I'd be happy to pay more taxes if I actually knew where it was going & how it was benefitting society, the current system isn't very transparent.

@Juliano Zn I know next to nothing about this, but in terms of Business just look at other brands & model yourself on those. Think about YouTubers & merch, they have an audience wanting to buy from them. One idea is hooking up with these YouTubers and working together on MErch to sell to their audience as most influencers have little business and monetization knowledge, yet are sitting on literal goldmines.

So true! Sadly, I'm not sure we will see a system where our basic needs (Shelter & Food + Water) are taken care of, and then the people are free to focus on their Passions, LP, Growth etc in our lifetimes. One of the best ways to escape WS for young people is to suck up living with your parents for a few extra years, build a business / your career & then start investing in conscious businesses / real estate, and create income that covers your basic needs. Then, instead of hoarding money, reinvest (sensibly of course) your profits into businesses & projects that keep pushing humanity forward. If we see more and more wealthy people doing this we can start to move forward.

@Juliano Zn Those two are the best free publishing ones I know of. But, when you say online marketing what facet do you want to learn about specifically?

@datamonster Precisely. I don’t really want to share my own books, as you never know who is lurking and don’t want more Compeition!? Here’s a link to that course(s) that are free- They walk you through it all mate. https://www.paystopublish.com/p/publisher-startup https://residualroyaltyacademy.com/courses This guys paid one is like $97 I think, and worth the upgrade if you will be taking it serious

@No Self I understand mate.

@preventingdiabetes So firstly, you’ve set up a belief that “enlightenment work is time consuming” but it doesn’t necessarily have to be, you can always make time for meditation, inquiry, working with a teacher etc. Also, everyone seems to forget LIFE is a spiritual practice, the whole point of spirituality is to enhance your life, not to make it separate from normal life. You should be wondering how your spirituality can enhance your life and further your LP, not be either / or. 1) Exhaust the desire, follow whatever you want to do most, not what you “should” do, everyone is at a different stage, sounds like you need to integrate Orange potentially? 2) Your thinking is very black and white, just because “material success won’t make you absolutely happy” doesn’t mean it has no value, can’t bring joy, can’t be enjoyed and can’t bring freedom. It still has relative value, all we are saying is don’t expect a big house and fast car to make you go from depressed to Buddha level of happiness. Instead, use that happiness from spirituality to improve yours & “others” life from a place of love!

@datamonster You can create / write your own books yes, but you can also hire writers, say Comedic writers to write Jokebooks and then run the marketing & business side, research how to make the book stand out & marketable, run the ads, build the brand etc. Think a smaller version of a publishing house, the right way to do it is to build your own brand basically. @herghly not sure who that is mate

@herghly and they’re all closed right now due to Covid, at least where I am they are ? If you have the money, a sauna is a great investment when you buy a property, the research on it is so promising on how beneficial it is. @Leo Gura can you link your detox routine / make a post or video on it mate, as it’s helped you so much, cheers!

@datamonster Essentially publishing books, audio books etc, the non-traditional way through platforms such as Amazon & Audible, and then other aggregate platforms @Nahm am I allowed to link the free courses? They aren’t mine & im not an affiliate.

@preventingdiabetes No man. Go for both, there are no hard rules though, do whatever YOU want to do. But, like @Nahm keeps saying, go for both, only you put limits on yourself. Why not work on your LP while deepening your spirituality?

@Meta-Man This could work too haha^^

@datamonster I own my own self-publishing companies, primarily

@No Self I never once blamed them solely on WiFi, I’m just saying EMFs should certainly not be written off. Yes, I’ve heard the many stories against Mercola, it’s easy to find articles like that on anyone, I also am all for people questioning the narratives on things like Vaccines. Why not read / listen to the book then we can have a discussion about it, and the science presented within it?

Just realized Leo literally answers this in the first seconds of his LP video, just spent 5 mins writing that lmao

@preventingdiabetes BOTH. true awakening will give you the peace & happiness you say you desire. BUT Life doesn’t just end after awakening lol, unless you decide to leave the body, but most don’t. So, say you awaken tomorrow you just gonna sit around until you die? You do realise when you awaken the bills won’t magically pay themselves right? (Unless you have inheritance etc) Even then, you will feel an urge to create, to explore, to take action, and LP can, relatively, give you joy, satisfaction and even deepen the love you feel & deepen your awakenings. We need to stop viewing awakening as this static, singular event. Sure, the initial “bangs” are timeless & often in an instant, but then the integration, the deepeningS go on until you die. In my experience, awakening is when life truly BEGINS, not ends. So, in your case, it will allow you to go even deeper into your LP, enjoy it even more as you won’t be putting unrealistic expectations to make you happy, because you already are happy, and your LP will just be an expression of happiness, understanding & Love in motion! You will still live life after awakening! Do both, you’ll enjoy life even more!

I recommend these books- The Muktiorgasmic Man by Mantak Chia Your Brain On Porn by Gary Wilson Cupids Poisoned Arrow by Marnia Robinson Ive recently been asking these questions myself and have been astounded at what I’ve found. you certainly don’t need to give up anything to awaken, you could awaken while eating Maccies every night & drinking Coke, but is that, relatively speaking, going to lead to the highest quality of life & optimum rate of development? Also, these books do not advocate repression, far from it. They just offer advice for the healthiest ways of expression sexually.

@Michael569 Check out Mercola’s book. He goes into detail how the Wireless tech industry has become the Tobacco Industry 2.0 & he isn’t anti-tech, he’s just a health nut & offers solutions to minimise your exposure, imo your intuition is certainly into something, my investigation started with this article- https://bengreenfieldfitness.com/article/lifestyle-articles/emf/ You also missed out on things like ADD, autism, chronic fatigue, even bipolar in young people has skyrocketed. Like you said there’s numerous factors at play, but I certainly wouldn’t say EMFs are harm-free,

@Javfly33 All I can help with is self publishing as that’s what I do, some friends of mine released a free courses to help newbies get started, but idk if I’m allowed to share the links on here? If you wanna do a different business model, find someone you trust who is teaching it (ethically) & learn from them, as much as you can free & if needed a paid course. @BlackMaze ^^

@Javfly33 Trust me, when you get involved in online marketing properly, you can easily scale to that level. I know people doing 10x that after 3-5 years of starting, just takes a lot of hard work & dedication, which 99% of people will never put in.

@allislove +1!! go enjoy life for a bit man, if anything it sounds like you need a break for a while, you sound mentally fatigued. Remember, spirituality is meant to make us enjoy life more, not torture us! But, when you return, I sense Matt Kahn is exactly what you need, a more feminine love based approach, instead of the masculine mind & inquiry based.

Been pondering this for a long time & reading 'Your Brain On Porn' & 'The Multi Orgasmic Man' has made me decide to finally actually make an effort of it, and see how it effects me personally as it has helped so many men quitting this addiction. If you aren't interested in quitting no need to read on, I'm not looking to debate about it, I recommend to anyone interested to read YBOP, but if you want to carry on watching, go ahead! Anyways, this thread is for others alike who are quitting Porn to stay on track and take the challenge and then share results. It isn't necessarily 'NoFap' as 'Self-Pleasuring' via methods discussed in Multi Orgasmic Man & without P or Ejaculation is very different. Anyone who's in, comment below, and we can just update how it goes. Anyone who has quit already, what have your results been? It seems it varies based on how much use, if you were seriously addicted, other factors- eating, sleep etc.

It's not that success can't make you happy, it's that nothing can 'make' you happy, except deep realization of who you are (The Self) and abidance as that, NOW. Then, from a place of happiness, we can express that in what we do, and put ZERO expectations on things, people & careers to make us happy and we counter intuitively will get even better results and can enjoy them more. To me it sounds like you're thinking you can't enjoy success, you definitely CAN, of course living your LP is incredibly fulfilling relatively speaking, but here we talk of absolute peace & happiness, nothing impermanent can bring that. So, don't think you shouldn't strive for success, it's great fun, just strive from a place of happiness & you'll be even more successful
