I’m a doctor and have 15+ years of experience with various types of semen retention and sexual energy management. Energy wise I had great results with “Monk Mode”. I did that for more than two months straight. It means zero sexual stimulation of any kind: no sex, no orgasm, no porn, no masturbation, no watching asses on TikTok, no nude pictures, etc. My energy was higher than ever. I was 42 and had much more energy that at 20. It tends to go down a bit after 30-45 days or so, but stays high. I stopped because I feared it wasn’t healthy. There are some studies about prostate cancer risk increasing with prolonged semen retention. Also: having erections is good for penis blood flow, and contribute to keep your penis healthy and “young”. Still, energy wise it was unbelievably good, and I miss it. I highly suspect that’s due to dopamine detox: sexual stimulation of any kind raises your dopamine. When you detox from dopamine, your body gets energy much easier than before (less dopamine needed to achieve the same energy level). Another great strategy energy wise is to have sex with a girl you love, and practice semen retention. That way, as David Deida also says in his book “The Way of the Superior Man”, you love the girl even more. And she loves you even more. It raises your connection with her, and increases your energy. In this scenario I think the dopamine production during sex is balanced by oxitocin, serotonin and endorphins, so somehow it doesn’t interfere with sustained energy levels. Also, you feel a different kind of energy than with Monk Mode, a more grounded and creative energy, whereas with Monk Mode the energy is more masculine. Ideally you want to have sex with your girlfriend once or twice a week maximum, if you want to keep your energy very high. If you have sex more often you might produce too much dopamine. So I guess Monk Mode with maybe an eiaculation every month or so is the best strategy if you are single. And sex (once or twice a week max) plus semen retention might be the best if you have a girlfriend, also with an eiaculation every month. The right eiaculation frequency depends on age and other factors. If you are 20 once every week should be fine. Of course that’s just my personal experience, all of that is highly subjective, and I suggest consulting your doctor before doing prolonged semen retention or going Monk Mode, because as I said there’s some risk. -
I just want to express my gratitude. You have a huge positive impact on my life. I'm a 41 year old doctor from Italy: we would be considered very different on a superficial level, yet we are so similar. My instinct tells me that one important next step for us will be to find a partner for a deeply satisfing long term relationship (if you haven't already). I had to make this post: a couple 10$ donations I made, and a couple kittens saved from acid, were not enough. With love, Andrea

- More inspirational/motivational videos. I know there are many of them on YouTube, but yours are often deeper and just better. - In general, I love when you talk about positive stuff. You should make more videos about beauty, wisdom, love, self-love, higher energies. - More “step by step” videos. For example, how to move from stage orange, to green, to yellow; explaining practical steps based on different starting conditions. For example: - steps to take if you struggle with finances - steps to take if you have a good income but are not yet “financially free” - steps to take if you are rich That could be done through a video course too, instead of just YouTube.

You could talk more about why life is beautiful. Why is life a gift? Why is life so amazing? Most of your episodes are about "problems" and "deconstructing": I love them all, but why don't you talk more about why and how life is beautiful and perfect? I mean specific episodes about that. -

It was clear that you didn't promote suicide, and you clarified that once more (and even more clearly) in your last video. It's good that you put more warnings in the descriptions of your videos (and maybe remind that sometimes while you talk), but other than that, I would suggest, just move on: don't spend too much time and energy on that topic. -
A huge thank you from an italian doctor who was stuck in the materialistic paradigm before knowing you. Happy birthday.

- Spiral Dynamics - 9 stages of ego development -"Levels of Energy" model, by Frederick Dodson and David Hawkins The first 2 are models about stages of development. Levels of energy, instead, is about states of consciousness.

A video that talks about similarities and differences between the best models to understand reality, and how those models integrate and interact with each other. You could make a quick summary about the models you already talked about, such as: - Spiral Dynamics - 9 stages of ego development And you might add the "Levels of Energy" model, by Frederick Dodson and David Hawkins. Since as you always say there's no "ultimate model", it'd be very interesting to understand the pros and cons of each model, and how/when to use one model or another.
