@OnceMore I am more of a warm blanket and stop watch type of guy

Hello guys, I would love some insight as to what I should do tomorrow to optimize my trip. Here is the Itinerary for tomorrow: 1. Wake up at 5am, make mushroom tea (Im thinking 1-2.5g?) I have never tripped on Mushrooms before. 2. I am headed to a forrest that has a waterfall, and the hike is going to take 4-6 hours. WHICH is perfect for the trip... 3. I am packing lots of water, snacks (almond butter and honey sandwiches) 4. Also, packing a smoothie with fruits... I have all day to trip, and I want to take this trip to raise my consciousness. I am in very good shape physically and I have been going to the library for 4 hours every day. So mentally and physically, I believe I am ready for some insights. Tonight, I am going to meditate for an hour to prepare. My mind is already very calm, I am just hoping to have some very big insights as to the best places to focus my energy. I meditate, do yoga, exercises, read, in general practice mindfulness. 5. This forrest is dense, so it should provide lots of beauty, and I already have a feeling that I am going to cry (Especially because there is a huge waterfall at the turning point. Any more tips????

Hello everyone! This year, I would like to double down and optimize my common place book. Here are the topics I am studying: WHAT will you be studying this year? Drop some of the topics

@jse @Sahil Pandit yes, two trip sitters.

@ShapeShift Is this a distraction from you doing the work you should be working on?

@Shakazulu If you meditate before you run, then stay mindful when you run, you can get a hit of it.

@kieranperez Sounds like you're overcomplicating things just a bit. What is the ONE thing you want to focus on? How about opening up your time horizon? Being more patient? Trusting the process? I mean you're already off the meds, thats something to celebrate.

@Ether I like the instrumental, what kind of mic do you use? Good lyrics, but I think the audio quality could be better

This thread seems to be a distraction from real work

@Vignan The path to becoming a high level chimp...

@LeoGura If you take away my Babbling Baboon status I will plot with my fellow apes to overthrow you. SO WATCH IT!!!

@molosku You need "Direct Experience" in order to confirm it for yourself. If you're a skeptic, that is great. Time for some experimenting. Have you done an intense yoga workout before? Have you meditated on your breath and noticed the inner energy flowing up and down your spine? If not, it makes sense to be a skeptic. BUT, prepare to be awed when you finally commit to experiencing a phenomena such as a kundalini awakening or one of your Chakra's opening up..

@Frankie10 Find out for yourself. In my experience, cutting through the fluff of what I thought to be true was enough. I haven't even gotten close to real contemplation, Im still purging through thoughts that are arising for no reason... There is a lot to it. Try Leo's Do Nothing meditation and see how that works for you. Don't manipulate reality.

@Shin Hahaha you're a fool

I let myself fall asleep during mediation @lmfao The reasoning is that when I wake back up after 10-20 minutes I continue meditating and just label that I fell asleep. This has a huge impact on my well being later on the day, so I don't mind it.

YES! Also, if it was organized that would be amazing.

Don't let sex cloud your judgement. See her for who she is, and keep that heart to heart relationship and see where that takes you. If that leads to sex, great. If not, that okay too. Leave her the option of choosing. If you force something, you're most likely gonna f*ck up.

Hello all! This post is to help those looking to improve their physical health and overall well being. I have been addicted to yoga and the sattvic diet lately, and I have made tremendous progress. I am currently at around 7% body fat weighing 155 lbs. I am in very good shape and have been doing Bikram Yoga as well as calisthenics. Here is my routine: Drink Indian Tea in the morning with toast- 8am (Water too, hydrate from last night!) Begin fasting - about an hour after eating - you can workout or do yoga. I chose to do Hindu pushups and 35 minutes of Bikram Yoga. After that, I went for a 5 mile run. (4:40 miler... you don't have to run 5.. ) Try some light sprints, or jog just a mile. This will help you lose lower belly fat and will open up your third eye 4 hour fast - I didn't eat again until 12. This is very hard to do if you're not in shape, so I do NOT recommend this to everybody, only those ready to take things to the next level. I have been doing this for a couple months and here are the benefits: 1. Increased alertness, sensitivity in body and loud noises 2. An urge to do something (Once you get going you want to keep doing more and more) 3.Improved digestion (Incorporate yogic breathing to your workouts) 4. Improved spine health - which makes you more conscious in the long term, because your spine anchors you into your awareness of objects and things around you. 5. Abundance of energy 6. Strong vitality and vigor increases 7. Sex drive and motivation increase 8. Optimism increases 9. Stable mood and emotions 10. Radical Lifestyle changes - Yoga based living! Embracing the feminine and living in the masculine essence! Please ask me questions if you're interested in becoming more like a Yogi Have a nice day!

Hmm, one piece of advice I could offer would be to set up your day that you can do both. You said you have a bit of distraction in your day, perhaps you can fill in this time instead with Leo's "Do Nothing" meditation - that will allow you to think clearly about if you should wait or start the LP course during school. If you can do both, I would highly recommend it. Personally, I spent my time doing just the LP course, however I may go through it one more time to solidify things.

I used to play video games anywhere from 5 hours to 12 hours a day. It consumed my life. Mostly, I was addicted to the team aspect and the dopamine rush I would get from winning a match with my team. They're fun, but real life is so much more rewarding if you're mature.

Bay Area?! Count me in. How about Sacramento? (Also) Can I record it and make a Vlog out of it for you?

@Richard Alpert Lately I have started doing calisthenics and Parallel Bar training while fasted, Im starting to feel and look like Bruce Lee!!!

Hello all, I hope you can relate to this.. Lately, I have been working harder on self actualizing. Working out hard, cleaning up my diet, my mind. Being conscious all day long, you know how it goes... I am an INFJ personality type, and I am highly sensitive, and one thing that has been getting on my nerves is how NUMB people are to the WORDS that they say! I ABSOLUTELY DESPISE when people say things that make them weak. How do I cope with this? I know the power of words, and their ability to heal... yet people around me have zero self awareness and say things that are KILLING them inside...

I would like to turn eating into a ritual that is centered around higher consciousness, does anyone have any suggestions? Here's what I know I should be doing. 1. Take your time - If a meal take 5 minutes to eat, take 15. Deliberately eat and chew mindfully. Your thoughts and feelings while eating get digested as you eat, so avoid thinking about things that worry you! 2. DONT watch YouTube videos that are a distraction. This one was huge for me. I spent three years watching trash, now I focus on listening to Personal Development material as well as how to become better at Yoga. 3. Dont do any activity immediately afterwards that require physical effort. 4. Drink warm water, because cold water causes an imbalance in your stomach.

@Leo Gura ... Am I??
