Wow mate. This is simply one of the best comments here on the forum.

@Leo Gura Why so obssesed with heavy metals lately? Have you become metalhead? But jokes aside i'm actually pretty curious if yo urelated your health problems to heavy metal poisoning. I struggle with feeling of tiredness and sleeping for atleast 10-11 hours daily.

@The0Self Okay. Let's say i could theoretically grasp what you say to me and i could agree that's true. But if i'm honest - this sounds like a bullshit to me, atleast for now. I need pointers. Something to grasp on and continue my road. Didn't meant to be mean.

@Leo Gura Well my approach is kinda different here what you've proposed in Letting Go video. I "get into" my body and try to feel those feelings or thoughts labeled as feelings only to find nothing at all and stillness in the end. Does it serve the same role? Becouse i perceive letting go as an abstract construct and i can't really wrap myself around it. Actually i find it a lot easier to solve my problems when staying detached as Leo mentioned that in the letting go episode. I work towards solving things but feelings and thougts are right there right now so i need good technique to not create resistance and FEEL. FEELING creates peace and stillness. It is layered. Layered as fuck. I'm not sure if i can just de-layer everything at once so i focus on being and maybe working at one thing at the time. But i thing i get what you mean with putting attention into something - neurotic thoughts can be really unbearable and affecting my social life so i try to put my attention and focus on what i feel. Then i can really feel into wat others say. That's pretty counterintuitive.

Hey guys. After some experiences from the nearest past i think i got it. Or i got it at least partially. I've been trying to focus on what is and my feelings trying to feel in in the body. And what i can report is that is true. And what is definitely not true is mind's theories, self-talk and various kinds of judgements and anxious thought. As i move my attention for the mind to the body i realise - Fuck! That's all false! However i'm still here finding myself lost in those thougts and feeling angry, anxious and hopeless sometimes. Is there any way to quit it for good? To use the mind as a practical tool? To enjoy life how it is? I'm going to dedicate myself more to meditation as it seems to the best possible solution, however this is just crazy how it's easy to get lost in this pattern of feeling "stuck" inside the mind. And i got it that shrooms are so hard experience for me - the mind on powerful substance is just getting even bigger and stronger and i need a lot of attention and focus to be in the moment and not get lost in this crazy ass thing.

YES! It's a hella difference to live as "a mind" and live knowing that there's a mind and trying to understand it and maybe ultimately overcome, be present. I simply feel more happy and stable when not believing and being sucked by stories, beliefs and imaginary tales. I'm more grounded and ready to work. I want to try 5 meo anyway, such a profound experience it seems. Thank you @Nahm for your beautiful response. What i learned from you is that i want to focus on my feelings more as what they are rather than labeling them and trying to control - as that doesn't and simply can't work for my good. And i am incredibly excited about the path. I feel like i'm changing on week to week basis. It's crazy. That's what i aim for. Thank you for theses words. It's hard but pretty rewarding experience.

@Moksha Exactly. It's horrific that i'm not conscious 95% of the day time. That's truly horrific. Keeping that consciousness is hard af but i'm trying my best. Do you also experience feeling more tired and needing to sleep more as you force yourself to be more consicous during the day? @latch I don't really understand. The mind will always find something. ALWAYS.

Hey guys i'd really love to get some help from you. My sleep was pretty bad from when i remember - i may establish nice sleeping routine (going to sleep at 11 pm, getting up at 7/8 am) but when i wake up i'm tired. Either little tired or REALLY tired not having energy to get out from bed. I have noticed some pattern. When i sleep better or atleast relatively better i digest better. For little context i excercise and eat like 3,000 kcal a day. My diet is usually 50% fats (red meat, avacado, nuts) 30-40% protein (cheese, milk, chicken) and 10-20% carbs (rice, groats). I eat pretty clean, i don't drink soft drinks etc and i dont eat sweets (maybe sometimes during weekend). Usually i feel like i eat really loads of food to grow muscles, but being honestly rude with you guys - i shit really small amounts and i feel like i'm not completly empty after going to the toilet. I sense that somehow my sleep quality and my digestion is connected, but i don't know how and which causes which. I'd really love to be able to defecate fully and feel rested after the night. Any ideas? What should i check and look at? In addition i have to add that i have some skin related problems - my skin itches in different places and i have to take some histamine bloker to stop the skin itching.

@Michael569 I simply love you mate, your level of knowledge is very high. Thanks, imma go eat some healthy carbs!

@Michael569 Woah, that sounds crazy. I actually bought right now brown rice and rye flakes, lets move this gut. However i still don't know whats about that itching.

Cool. What specific kind of food would you propose as a fiber source?

Leo, how do you distinguish between your shadow projection onto others and envying them someting? How to tell if something pisses me off of jealousy and becouse of me projecting my shadow onto them?

How old is she? How old are you?

@K Ghoul, hey, Demon here. We got to talk.

Well it seems @zeroISinfinity wasn't superuman...

Hello guys. I think this topic was discussed before however it's importance and my realization made me post this piece of advice. How important is your breath actually? PRETTY FUCKING IMPORTANT. Recently i struggle with tension in my body. It appears when i'm alone and especially in social setting. I wondered why does this happen? Am i upset about something all the time? Somebody pisses me off? Am i sad or what? I really get lost in searching for a reason of that. And i got it. One thing helps and takes away the tension - breath. Focusing on my breath and breathing fully is something put of this world. It makes me more charismatic, more energetic and i can't help but name that feeling an alphaness. In social situations i focus too much on various things - did i do this thing right; how to behave now; i get lost in thoughts wen listening to somebody; etc etc. It really made me stressful and wanting to avoid people. Now, what helps is focusing on my breath, especially when i'm talking to others. It's just another level then. I can say anything freely and it's ok. Like i've been stripped off of anxiety. Now guys - breath and take it slow, you are great arleady, just give yourself a space to feel that. Peace.

@traveler did this imrpove your sexual abilities aswell?

Such a beautiful answer Nahm, thank you.

Why does it sound like a troll post?

I'm a music freak. Not only i do love music for itself, but for the message it sends. Recently i've stumbled upon crazy project made by english producer - The Caretaker. In his recent and final gargantuan work he focuses on the topic of memory loss. For everybody interested in te musical component of his act - he manipulates and changes the samples from 20`s and 30`s ballroom`s music. The project contains 6 stages representing process of memory loss. As the first stage contains a little crackling samples the other... sorry, you just gotta check yourself. It's 100% worth it. But beside this project i wondered - what if an enlightened person, let's say our favourite guy Leo, gets dementia? Does he slowly become more ego driven? How would the one react? What is the most possible result? Would he lose his enlightenment? PS. the link for The Caretaker's project.

@Javfly33 @Carl-Richard of course they lose their sense of self. But i want to spot the main difference here between what we do intentionally through psychedelics, meditation, self inquiry and what they experience - being forced into losing their sense of self along with their awarness. That's quite different i guess.

@allislove i get what you mean but i think you didn't really grasp what i'm trying to say. As far as i'm concerned enlightenment is the result of realization and direct experience, realizing Oneness. And as far as dementia goes - you not only lose your memory but also basic cognitive functions (awarness included). Now, how does this affect the feeling/realization of Oneness.

Breakfast is crucial. Mine is essentialy 7 eggs and 120-170 grams of bacon at 7:30 am, and at 9 am i start my training as i'm on my low carb diet. It works wonders. Have you checked your T levels?

Bumping this topic.

How do you actually hold hands under her shoulders? Also the second tip is fucking crazy. I will try it, but it sounds very complicated to implement during sex. I have to add something from me - placing a small pillow under her back and then targeting your dick into her upper vaginal wall is a great way to give her a good time
