@Zotikos Have you tired this yourself? I feel like If I just sit there then I am being unproductive. I feel like I must focus on my awareness or something to exercise my brain. Or is this not necessary to become enlightened

@Maria M Wow! Which carbs do you eat in your 10%? Is is zero fruit, and how do you feel eating fruit?

@Simon Zackrisson Notice I feel more internally cleaner. But to be honest, carbs don't actually make me feel to good. Even fruit! I ffind they make me tired. Having something like an egg and avo salad makes me feel much more energized than a fruit smoothie lets say. The only reason with the carbs and working out thingy is that I hear a lot of bodybuilders say they feel flat if they don't eat carbs. I think it has something to do with glycogen and water weight. I must agree, keeping your mind open in the nutrition world is a full-time job!

@abrakamowse Thanks! I think sometimes I do notice myself making silly errors when trying to listen to a video while doing the dishes I think doing things one step at a time also allows me to be more mindful throughout the day..

@Simon Zackrisson Type him in, he's more concerned with health and 'alkalizing' the body which I think really is the key to good health. Have you heard about PH balance?

@Simon Zackrisson Haha! The guy Dave Asprey recommends eating a diet which is basically about 70% fat, 20% protein and 10% carbs (mainly veggies) and he really limits starches and fruit. The foods that you will be eating on a regular basis is butter, coconut oil, avocados, green veggies, and GRASS-FED meats which he over stresses. Try it out for yourself, the diet mainly focuses on eliminating all cravings (which is does) and giving you more energy. The one downside I think is that if you workout a lot you kinda need carbs! whenever I go too low carb I loose a lot of weight (which can be good, but I am super skinny and want to bulk) so that's my only problem. Despite that, If you're just a senditary office worker I think it can give you laser like focus, try it! The best nutritionalist I know of is Yuri Elkaim. Have you heard of him. I think he offers the best no bullshit information about nutrition, because as you probably know, there is a lot of dogma and cults out there when it comes to diet.

Usually once in the morning for 20 minutes! However, I think I'm just a massive 'self-help' junkie! I feel like I could just watch Leo's videos all day long without getting bored. Maybe I should meditate more. Do you have a balance or is it more of a go with how you feel?

If you're interest in Low-Carb/Ketogenic diets, I would recommend looking at the Bulletproof diet. I think you would like it.

Coffee is a very debatable topic in the health movement. I personally don't drink coffee, simply because I don't want to have end up relying on it to keep me awake. Instead, I only drink green tea, which has numerous health benefits (however it takes getting used to). One other thing is to become sensitive to caffeine and only allow yourself 1-2 cups a day max to allow you to keep sensitive to caffeine. A great nutritionist I recommend is Yuri Elkaim. He offers great no-bullshit information about nutrition. Hope this helps!
