@Leo GuraI have been away due to serious life purpose work (psychologically) but in the next 3 weeks I will of finished my initial first year of studies and getting a long well-deserved break so I will be back on here more regularly. I will keep a close eye out for struggling people if you want me to.

@Jon_Bundesen what technique are you referring to?

Leo gives you what you need at this time in your life. Seek and you shall find.

The period that is Corona virus times has brought me so many profound gifts. One e.g., showing me the places in which I need to heal and grow. As a result of this I begun sessions of EMDR which I can only describe as 'gift' like. The majority of the most profound gifts come disguised as pain and suffering, this is something else I have come to learn. My question to you is, what has / is Corona virus brought for you? ❤️

@datamonster https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/emdr-what-is-it So cool to read your replies and the things you guys got up to

@andyurb Experience and enjoyment are a continuum. Nothing is permanent. Everything is fluid and ever changing. As things fall, others will rise, as things heaten, others will cool. Recognise it's okay to feel like this, because it is. Accept it with compassion if you can? See to whatever is in your heart at the moment, is there something troubling you in life currently? Changes? Everything will fall into place for you, your enjoyment will return. Nothing can or will take your love of music away, but for now, take some time for you and let the experience/feelings flow for you without attachment or judgement. ❤️

This is very helpful. Thank you! May I add from personal experience? My goal setting (small daily goals) used to be avoided due to an overwhelming / anxious like feeling, until I altered my perspective on them. I recontextualised into something more 'user friendly'. Instead of viewing them as I were, goals, chores and tasks, I now viewed them as 'What are the things I am choosing to consciously do in this beautiful day that is my life?' 'How do I wish to spend this day?' And bam!... It really changed the game for me. I no longer viewed them as something to 'get through' but they were now something to be enjoyed and embraced. After all, it indeed, was another day in my life, another moment. ?

Be cool if someone could summarise justsayin'

Exactly. I remain hopeful. I hope other scientists read their '13.8' blog, looks to be some very interesting topics.

I have been observing awareness and I have a question, would love your experiential answers (no parroting answers please) Is awareness another thought? Can we even answer this as our answers are based in thought.

Nice answers guy's thank you, I am contemplating.

brilliant metaphorical use of the tree

Just thought I'd give a small and hopefully helpful update. I've been slowly and maturely been experimenting (very low dose) with psilocybin mushrooms for personal and Spiritual growth (I grew my own). One benefit which I wasn't expecting was for it to eradicate anxiety and just make me a lot happier. Yesterday I was in a large busy crowd of hundreds of people, could barely move and there was almost 0% anxiety, which is truly amazing for me personally. I used to have OCD but with therapy (6/7 sessions in) and microdosing my issues have almost gone. I'm truly amazed. I hope this could help at least one person ??

At the end of How Fear works Part 1 Leo provided some 'homework' an exercise to do. Writing down all your micro fears you observe for 7 days and revising at the end of each day. If you did this tell me what you observed? What were your personal findings? Did you notice any correlations or patterns? Love to hear your experiences

I'm new to the practice and have been using Brad Yates. https://www.youtube.com/c/tapwithbrad For me it works wonders. Try it out yourself and let me know your response ?

I've started studying criminology, sociology and psychology as the next phase of my LP development. I'm only on week 2 and I have truly fallen in love with everything philosophy and sociology. Simply learning about these people and seeing the patterns that emerge through time is absolutely mind blowing for me. I'm also able to gain some perspective on why we are the way we are today (society) (based on the scientific revolution). My question to you guys is do you have a favorable philosopher? and if so why? Also, what are your perspectives on today due to history? Have you noticed anything yourself that you would like to share?

@aklacor727 thanks for your input

I understand. @neutralempty I wish you all the love on your journey brother <3

could this be another narrative as a defense?

I'm so happy for you guys that tried ☮️? Another tool in our tool box ??

Explore love. Explore your definitions and beliefs around it. Feel it in different parts of your life on a daily basis.

Do you mean your love isn't enough? The love you would receive from a female is still your own love

This ♥️?
