  1. @flowboy Calm down on the guy man.
  2. @Cepzeu Thank your for answering man @Girzo Thanks for some answers, I appreciate it. I have read that page 2 times. Btw I am not planning to do smoking or getting high all day, I can see that I would be hurting my own future. Thanks for the thought tho.
  3. Hello everyone. I have been trying to leave behind my old islamic ways for the last few months, but this is something I really struggle with. I am not comfortable eating food knowing that it is haram meat. However this barrier that islam enforces also makes you unable to eat at a lot of places. For example I want to travel to Antarctica, but of course on the cruise they don't serve halal food. So: sticking to halal or not? And should I try pork chop?
  4. So recently I decided to say “fuck it” and watch Leo’s oldest videos. From oldest to newest. Everyday I try to watch one. In the video down below Leo explains, among other things, how you can use the Sedona Method to deal with resistance. Now I tried it on both resistance and nervousness and it seemed to work. I am planning to try it on any sexual feelings as well as anger and fear. My question: is this the same as channeling? Or is channeling different? (For the record I have no clue what channeling really is. All I ever heard about it is that you can channel your emotions.)
  5. @pluto I think you are right man. I bought many self-help books recently, but with your insight I understand what I must do now. I will be buying Letting Go by David Hawkins soon. Something I am excited to read.
  6. @capriciousduck Make sure to really... like.... be comfy. Is really important. I wish you best of luck man. I find it a fun experience. Ofc if you are really scared, start with just 30 minutes. No need to push it.
  7. @capriciousduck Give it a go man. If you are so depressed, what do you have to lose?
  8. I hate to say it but I feel like I haven’t been gaining anything from all the books I’ve read. So far I have read 19 self-help related books and am currently reading Team of Rivals, but I haven’t gained much at all I feel. Could be me. Maybe I am not doing the right practices or maybe most of the books I have read are in no practical use at this moment in my life. I do like Team of Rivals the most though.
  9. Honestly I could drink all kinds of tea. Absolutely refreshing Although I recall being recommended to drink herbal tea specifically. It is quite nice.
  10. @QandC same reason here
  11. One dude, I thought he would be ready for it. I haven’t spoken to him in a long time.
  12. Hello everyone. Recently, with the stuff happening in the USA and Leo uploading conscious political videos, I have been thinking. I thought that, before even thinking about changing the world, you should change yourself first (heard this from lots of people including Sadhguru and I think Leo). Loads of people (including me) are still struggling somewhere close to the bottom of Maslow’s hierarchy, yet I see here the same people discuss big topics like Medicare and taxation of the rich. Now I have not the right to vote considering my age. Even in the Netherlands I still have not gotten proper education about politics. Although I have much to change about myself and don’t think I should be worrying about the entire world, I am curious. Should I engage more in this politics overload the rest of the forum is basically embracing? I haven’t watched any of Leo’s conscious politics videos yet.
  13. Especially the stories about Dajjal would really scare me as a kid. Interesting topic, I am curious as well.
  14. @tenta my room is clean and what is a prageru
  15. @Quicksilver But it’s already clean!
  16. There is this online musician called Pogo who actually has succeeded in not being taken over by social influence. https://www.youtube.com/user/Fagottron His most watched video called “Alice” is constantly praised in the comments as being way ahead of his time. If what you are saying is true, your situation concerning music should be similar to his. He never signed any deals and makes all his music in his own studio. He explained how, because of not signing to any labels and stuff, the radio won’t play his stuff. Even when it is really popular. (Btw I feel you about loneliness... I wish you best of luck. I am still kinda dealing with it)
  17. If only times were so simple as watching Pokemon on a Saturday morning with 0 stress I still kind deal with this, but I used to sit hours somewhere on a chair thinking about my life in general. Missing my old self. Cried a lot and stuff. The trick really is either grounding yourself into the present (actually giving you a chance to experience everything in the same way as you used to when you were younger) or focus on the future. In both ways I haven’t succeeded at all, but sure a lot of people out there recommend it. Reality is often disappointing.
  18. Hello everyone. This topic is not posted for the simple reason that I miss my childhood and want to watch Disney films. I recently came across this song: So I am already not in the greatest state (sad moods and stuff) and I am really loving this song and other, funky songs? I am planning to do psychedelics soon and was wondering what experienced psychonauts think of using psychedelics on music like this. A mixture of the famous Alice in Wonderland and instrumental sounds. In general, watching Alice in Wonderland while tripping on LSD would already be a big journey right? Again I am planning to do this during my FIRST trip, considering I don’t think I will get enlightened or awakened at all.
  19. @Serotoninluv So basically I have to stop for a second, ask myself if there is really something going on or if I am just deceiving myself. Making sure I diagnose the situation as correctly as possible?
  20. @Mikael89 Well it didn’t seem that you understood that from your first post lol
  21. Damn right I am saving this topic! All this advice sure has got to help me out.
  22. @Mikael89 You know everyone is different right? What is emotionally moving for you, could be literal garbage for someone else. You seem to not be aware of that.
