Superfluo

@Leo Gura Dewey Larson

It already exists. It's called therapy

Will you talk about this in the series about conscious relationship? I guess the dichotomy freedom-intimacy is a huge and critical factor in relationship which needs to be fully understood by people.

It's not that, you missed the point

@Leo Gura The more I practice pickup techniques (push-pulls, qualifications/disqualifications, etc.) the more I find those methods boring, ripetitive, like there is no creativity and I feel like I always resort to the same stuff over and over again. The context changes, so the topics and the stuff I tease girls about change, but the structure is the same. they get me results, but I feel dull inside, too planned. Am I doing them wrong?

Tony Robbins' or Byron Katie's stuff might help you. Raise your standards, push yourself more, raise your expectations of yourself, and keep them up until you muster the courage and the strength to align to them. If your standards are high, they will soon start to bug you until you decide to make something to ease the discomfort. That will be the moment you'll start being proactive. Don't lower your standards, raise yourself to meet your standards. And until then, let them be high enough to let you know who you can become.

That's a basic human blindspot, isn't it? (Generally speaking)

@Hello from Russia Try intersecting it with Wilber's quadrants, Spiral Dynamics, Ego Development Stages, Erotic Blueprints, Enneagramm, Horoscope, Reichian Physiology, Cognitive Functions, defense mechanisms, the big 5 personalities, chakra blockages/development, etc.

@Strangeloop When you'll be sick and tired of being sick and tired, then you will change. You're not there yet. Keep sinking into your depression, and you snap your rubber-band-like motivation.

@Michael569 What about frozen vegetables (or even vegetables + legumes, frozen) packages that you cook on the spot?

The universe gave you a challenge. Are you capable of loving even after being hurt? Is your love shaky or solid?

@Leo Gura It's not that womem are confused about what they want. Simply, they recognize that feminine energy is healing, so they encourage that, also because being themselves feminine, they feel more attuned and connected to feminine energy in others. But they don't endorse getting rid of masculine energy in the process of accessing more feminine energy. They want both in a man. They want both masculine and feminine AND they want a man who has CONTROL over this balanced mix.

@NeonLayf You need to address the mind at a more basic level. Doing spiritual work with OCD will lead to mild results and a lot of frustration. Be strategic in your approach to self-actualization. Address the mind first. Then, when the mind is more stable, do what you want. You may benefit from embodying the practice of letting go. OCD is the opposite of letting go. You need to learn to let go. Let go of the negative consequences: You made a mistake. So what? You did something embarassing. So what? You talked with someone and they seemed embarassed or upset or they felt awkward, and now you think they have negative emotions towards you. So what? "So what?" needs to become your default phrase every moment of your life. Seriously. But rehearsing this phrase will make your OCD worse. Why? Because your mind will always find many reasons to overwhelm your, to flood your thoughts with arguments for not letting go. Let go. OCD is pretty much mental, so the mind needs to learn to let go. BE SERIOUS. Don't squander. Learn to let go. After you learn to let go, learn to let go of needing to let go, because your mind will attach to that too. The fact that your OCD shifts from a compulsion to another has a two-fold meaning. First, it's an attempt of your mind to avoid being addressed, it's the mind playing hide and seek. Second, it's an attempt to shift your emotional avoidance so that you can't understand what there is beneath and also a way to show you from multiple perspectives what there is beneath (an attack and an ask for help at the same time). So, in addition to letting go, it is useful to learn to feel your emotions and bodily sensations relative to the compulsory acts and healing them, shining the light of your consciousness on them. For example: you make an embarassing movement. Your mind kicks in and you start to mentally panic (yeah, panic, because that's what's happening). Then you try to force the avoidance of the situation with the mind, you try to manipulate your mental energies to avoid or deal with the discomfort. But the discomfort is a bodily sensation. So, you made an embarassing movement. Now your mind is on fire. What should you do? Shift your attention to the somatic reactions to the thoughts your mind shows you. Your mind shows you the thought "Now everybody will think I'm stupid"? Good, learn to feel the sensations relative to that thought. Reveal them. Let them surface. And start to accept them unconditionally. Love them as they are. Caretake them. Support them. Listen to them. Embrace them fully as they are, with no hurry. Be careful though, your mind will start creating negative thoughts relative to the sensations: "Now everybody will think I'm stupid" --> You listen to the bodily sensations relative to that thought --> "These sensations shouldn't be there, I'm a failure", "These sensations means I'm dying", "These sensations means I'm truly stupid, if I were not stupid I would not react like this to the thought that I'm stupid" --> You listen to the bodily sensations relative to those new thoughts. It will be a war with multiple battles. Your mind will attack, you unmask the attack, then your mind will attack your response, you accept, then your mind will attack your lack of proactive action, your respond, and so on. Here on the forum I have several posts on healing. Check them out.

@Focus Make a serious commitment to heal your traumas and wounds. Start with this: You can't even fathom how better you can feel if you start to heal. Be ready for an epic adventure.

@Michael569 What about adding vitamin K2 to the vitamin D3 supplementation? I see many supplements combining these two vitamins, and I've heard K2 helps calcification of bones and prevents arteries from clotting caused by excessive calcium depositing in them, but I found nothing comprehensive online about that.

@Richard Purdy Remove the blockages preventing you from being authentic (traumas, subconscious muscular tensions, deep negative beliefs, negative thought patterns, lack of experience, negative self-image, etc.)

@Leo Gura Leo, some time ago I asked you a question about the stage orange self-help stuff you did to become so successful. And I asked which changes resulted in the most powerful or best results. Could you tell me a little about it, maybe just giving me pointers? Understanding how to lay my foundations in life means a lot to me, and could be useful to other people.

@mandyjw @vizual Thanks guys!

Hi! Do you know if waking up in the middle of the night is bad for your health or sleep? I think I will have to wake up once every night to do a protocol, which takes just a couple of seconds and I have to get up from the bed. Does it jeopardize sleep, focus, energy or general health? Thank you!

@Max8 If you have a foot on the pedal and a foot on the brakes, you have to remove the latter first in order to go! How to remove the foot from the brakes? Start with this stuff: Changing your deep core beliefs Healing/psychotherapeutic practices Reprogramming your subconscious mind Visualization Learning how stuff works (money, health, career, dating, your personality, etc.) and adjusting your expectations Improving your diet Become extremely proactive and responsible for your life aka take massive action And other ways. If you have a foot on the brakes, ask yourself: "What is stopping me/preventing me from being who I want to be?" and answer that question in regards to your internal situation (emotions, wounds, traumas, beliefs, blockages, thoughts, lack of clarity, etc.) and external situation (environment, people, daily routine, job, career, family, friends, resources, tools, experiences, etc.). BE FUCKING STRATEGIC, and start thinking in principles.

Hi! Is there a way to whiten teeth in a DIY manner, preferably naturally? For example, I once heard you can use the inside of a banana peel to whiten your teeth. Haven't really looked into that though. Thanks!

Hi! Let's say I wanted to start detoxifying my liver, kidneys and gut. Where should I start? What should I do? I've never followed a detox protocol, so I'm interested in what it means, what protocols are worth trying, what should I do, what should I not do, etc. I'm not talking about heavy metal detox, just simple regular detox. The reason is that I have a mild hypothyroidism, and since I'm troubleshooting the causes (while planning to do some bloodwork to check thyroid hormones, thyroid antibodies, c-reactive protein and calcium), I want to learn how to detox the liver, kidneys and gut, so that I am prepared if I need to do it. I've read this article: https://thesupermandiet.com/detox/ (which is about heavy metal detox), and I've read about the Anthony William's Celery Juice Detox, and they don't teach how detox works nor how to properly do it. I've been following a mostly vegetarian diet for the last year or two. Three months ago I reintroduced meats. Now I eat a low amount of red meats or processed meats 1-2 times a week, poultry 2-3 times a week, lots of legumes and nuts and I don't eat fish nor seafood. I eat an average amount of wheat products though. I try to stay away from dairy, but since I don't live alone it's difficult. I've read here in the forum that these are the first steps: Fix the diet Replenish vitamins and minerals Heal the gut But I'm not quite sure if my diet needs some fixing, and I don't really know how to heal the gut. Also, I don't know what I should do next. I've heard about Robert Morse's Protocols, but I'm not familiar with them. Are there resources, books, videos, articles that explain proper detox well enough? Thanks!

@cypres Do you mean the liver and gallbladder flush?

@Hello from Russia That's a very empowering story, thanks!

What if I need to wake up early every day?
