  1. @Zane Who? It would be nice to have a transcripts book. @Manjushri seems interested too. Attached is a list of all episodes, numbered and organized by upload date. Actualized Episodes List.csv Actualized Episodes List.pdf
  2. Your work is appreciated ♡ Thanks for all you do for us.
  3. @Bojan FYI this person who says he's a chemist says to get an HTMA test before chelation. And to watch your copper-to-zinc ratio. He says zinc and DMSA deplete copper and therefore iron and that can be harmful or even dangerous. I personally don't know anything but came across this yesterday and wondered whether it might be worth looking into. https://www.reddit.com/r/Supplements/comments/pw9h1e/andy_cutler_chelation_group_on_fb_is_crashing/
  4. Ok thank you. Realized soon after that it was a silly question but glad to know for sure. Thanks for your reply.
  5. Hi @Space would you happen to know whether Andrew Cutler's chelation method is only for those who have had mercury fillings, or whether it can help to detox from any kind of mercury buildup such as from shots?
  6. Thank you for all you do. Your work and recommendations are so positively transformative. Wishing you all the best. ♡
  7. I like this! Feels like a great technique or stepping stone.
  8. @BlackMaze Thanks for your reply, the following posts by everyone were helpful too.
  9. @Rilles @tuckerwphotography Thanks for the posts and recommendations.
  10. @Cepzeu @m0hsen these are so beautiful ♡
  11. @jimwell I agree now about the SD stage. Before learning about SD I guess I was mistakenly attributing mainly Green values to the culture. Three of my Japanese friends have happily left Japan and don't intend to move back there. They personally have mostly Orange values. Thanks for the video. So far heavy Indian accents are at the highest dificulty level for me. Also I once had an elderly Chinese boss. English was my second language too and at some point in elementary school I became a native speaker. After forgetting most of my first language and losing the muscles for speaking it, I visited the country as an adult and completed a graduate program there in that language (grammar, reading and listening were a nightmare). It took years for my American accent to fade away even a little. Many muscles in and around my mouth ached when I spoke the other language. Now speaking both OK, with some discomforts. Can't imagine trying to develop those muscles later in life than I did.
  12. This was in Leo’s blog recently. Daniel Schmachtenberger is a SD Yellow.
  13. I hadn't heard that term NEET before. It sounds like the fears/opinions of older generations, which might be dominant in the media, weigh heavily on the minds of youth. Without the approval or financial support of family, it's probably difficult to set aside the resources to innovate or build one's own business. I would have liked to see in this video some NEETs who have become very successful, hear how they did it and their advice for others looking to escape wage slavery. At least for me personally, an accent is no problem. It's a beneficial mental exercise, develops the skill, ears get used to it, and it opens doors for accessing new content and perspectives. An investment in good, large captions/subtitles can also help non-native speakers of English attract more viewers, I think.
  14. Could this solve the problem below? By @Leo Gura on 02/22/21: (From <https://www.actualized.org/forum/topic/61484-daniel-schmachtenberger-bret-weinstein/?page=3#comment-843269>)
  15. @tuckerwphotography Thank you for posting, this was interesting. Maybe because Blue and Green are collectivist whereas Orange and Yellow are individualist. The few interviewed were likely not pure Green. Most people are a mix. How would a Yellow female answer those subjective questions? How can we know which stage is speaking? Maybe Teal Swan and @Barbara are Yellow.
  16. @UDT Avoiding drinking milk isn't enough. Bread, chocolate, cake, butter, cheese, sour cream, some pastas, ice cream, whey, granola bars, mayonnaise, some sauces, the list goes on.
  17. Just had 2nd-ever panic attack on the 22nd minute. Kudos to the makers. I can't take any more today. How is this treatment still allowed? In high school after seeing PETA's "Meet Your Meat" I had turned fully vegan. Months later about 90%---trying to find the kindest companies/farmers to support and very confused about nutrition. (Unfortunately many of us seem overly concerned with how things impacts us most directly and most immediately---such as our tastebuds, and not concerned enough about others or even our own future health.) Years later, I am again shocked because I had somehow assumed that things had been improving since that exposure, and forgot the emotional impact of actually seeing the truth. Making a promise now to take more responsibility and also to cut out dairy entirely. Let's please, please do our research and support only ethical practices. ??? @Hero in progress thank you for spreading awareness and helping to raise consciousness. - Finished the video. Glad they informed about human health and veganism too. Happy to see a positive, solutions-oriented ending ♡
  18. I haven't heard all of Leo's episodes on consciousness yet (I am quite new to Actualized), so I'm sorry if this is redundant. I just took notes on this video for myself today and thought some of you might find it helpful too. I will try to catch up on Leo's soon. "Connecting with a Conscious Universe" with Ervin László László is a spiral dynamics stage Turquiose, according one of Leo's videos. Some bits of the transcript are pasted below.. 07:07 - The great scientist Max Planck said, after 40 years of studying the deepest elements of this physical reality--which means the atoms--"I can tell you one thing, there is no such thing as matter in the universe." 10:15 - What quantum science teaches us--any part of a quantum system is not local. It's also present in every other part. You can't act local. There is nothing local. No causality. No push and pull, no affect and cause is local. Whatever you do is penetrating throughout this system. It's part of that system, and we are part of the system. 17:45 - It used to be said that what we see is what we believe. We believe what we see. Both ways it works, sure enough. As a skeptic, we believe what we see, but also to recognize that we see what we believe. Because if we strongly disbelieve something-- you say, that's nonsense; that cannot be--you don't see it. The evidence may be there in front of us. 21:00 - I sound like a mystique perhaps, but I can quote none other than Erwin Schrodinger, one of the greatest physicists of our day, who said, "Consciousness is one. To use consciousness in the plural is to misapprehend it, to mistake it. There is no sense in which we can think of consciousness in the plural. Ultimately, there is one consciousness." And Einstein agreed. He said, "This is a kind of an optical illusion to think of consciousness as residing severally in each of us separately." We are one consciousness, one mind, and that same mind stems from this dimension which created all things in the universe--from the atoms to the amoeba to the seeds of the simplest plant to the algae to the complex organisms to societies of organisms to ecosystems to entire societies in our global society of human beings. It's all a product of this drive-- drive towards oneness, drive towards wholeness. 23:09 - because people who have near-death experiences, very often, they are in hospitals, and they're hooked up to instrumentation that shows the waves of their movement of their brain. And there are periods--not for everybody, obviously-- but there is very often--many, many cases-- when this is flatlined. The line is flat. The brain doesn't operate in any normal way. And during this period, the individuals are in a given setting, they're exposed to sights and sounds, happenings, and then they come back. 23:48 - And if they come back-- not always, but often they do come back to normal functioning--they describe in detail what happened during the time that their brain was flatlined. How is that possible? Today, even the greatest skeptics dmit that this is possible, not because they are convinced by arguments but because they lived it. There was a case of a famous Harvard neurosurgeon--Eben Alexander-- who spent seven days in deep coma, where there was no possibility-- as he would have said before--no possibility of any conscious experience. When he came back--which was half of a miracle, because he was given up by standard medical science--when he came back, he described in detail what happened in ways that are verifiable. 24:45 - We are no longer entitled to believe that all we are is a series of brain functions in the cerebellum, which produce, as kind of a byproduct, sensations. And these sensations, we call consciousness. So when you turn off the system, the sensations stop. Sure enough, they stop, but the sensations may exist outside the brain. 26:46 - ... known as distributed information. Information is most local. And we can say this cosmic consciousness, which is present in all of us, is distributed information. It is something that we receive, we can decode. What the brain does is decodes it, it transmits it. It makes it perceivable. But doesn't just make it, that consciousness is present. So you might ask, so is everything that we perceive such a consciousness? No. Obviously, the inner consciousness in our mind, there are many elements that come from the senses. We see sights or we hear sounds. We taste tastes, etc. So our consciousness is filled with sensory information. The big mistake of modern times was that we saw that that's all there is. There is more to it. We all have experiences that go beyond the senses. They are called transcendental experiences.
  19. @PopoyeSailor Thanks for sharing this. I didn't know about kundalini. Since she was sitting on her tailbone area when it happened, this possibly explains a few things for me. I had two injuries to my tailbone in middle & jr high school. Ever since, sometimes especially when I place most pressure on my tailbone, I've seen hands of cards from multiple people's eyes, had a kind of panic attack in class just before we were informed about the 9/11 attack, things like that. I don't remember any lights or swirling sensations, although there might have been when I fell onto my tailbone but I didn't notice (maybe from the squinting and crying). Always been a hardcore skeptic so each was a serious puzzle. So I believe Vanessa's story. I know someone who can see inside bodies. She obtained the ability spontaneously in her early 20s, which made her throw up constantly and not be able to leave her room or look at anyone for weeks. She's been stuck with it all her life. Another YouTuber advises against reacting with a strong resistance to these awakenings. I wonder whether people can get stuck with it for that reason.
