Get in it while can during the summer lol. During the winter months, red light therapy. It’s not the same but it will help. You can also do cod liver oil for vitamin d, assuming it’s not full of heavy metals or toxics. Which is questionable. I’ve also heard people recommend indoor tanning beds for UV light, but I personally have not tried that. Might do more harm than good.

1) Sunlight. You can also use red light therapy to supplement that end of the spectrum. 2) Massage or regular bodywork 3) Mix of zone 2 steady-state cardio and HIIT 4) Functional breathing, i.e healthy breathing mechanics and healthy breathing volume 5) Working on your emotional wellbeing with through meditation, therapy, shadow work or some other modality. Stress is not good for your health 6) Getting outside into nature

@AtheisticNonduality No, he just became an alien mouse. -
For sure. If nothing else, it has made my hourly daily meditation a breeze. At higher levels in the program, they give you access to tracks that let you access specific brain wave frequencies (alpha, gamma, theta), which is a nice added bonus. Of course I do a lot of other spiritual work too. So it can be hard to separate the effects of these things. But I really enjoy the daily meditation and plan on finishing the whole program. I think if combined with safe psychedelic use and perhaps something like neurofeedback, you almost have everything you need to rapidly advance in this work.

Lmao In the past you’ve said that channeling spiritually evolved non-physical beings (like angels) is not worthwhile and you’re better off just channeling straight from God. Do you think this encounter has altered your opinion? -
@melontonin Been doing holosync for years but never combined with psyches. If you’re going to try it, I would stick with a program level you’re relatively comfortable with. Or a psychedelic dose you’re comfortable with. I wouldn’t hit the gas on both at the same time. Realistically, if you’re a more powerful psychedelic experience, just do a larger dose. You don’t need to combine other techniques unless you really want to. Psyches should be enough for most people.

What do you mean by frivolous? We don’t really know their full personality from this short clip. You could clip some of my behavior in a video and get a very distorted perception of who I am. Even non frivolous people like to cut loose and have fun. They’re likely SD stage Green, which is relatively high. Regardless, I don’t find it that surprising. Just because you are a serious intellectual doesn’t mean you want to date someone else who is also a serious intellectual. That’s too much serious intellectualism

They're certainly not all cults. Cult is a strong accusation. More likely than a cult is just the challenge of such close relationships. You don't need to be in a cult for relationships to be draining or toxic at times. Especially when you're practically living on top of each other and need to work together. It's definitely not just going to be paradise. More like a lot of conflict, arguing, fighting etc. You have to decide what it most important for you. For some people, they value the vision of the community enough to deal with the drama. You will certainly be forced to work on your communication and conflict-resolution skills if nothing else. Co-housing will likely be the least intense of everything on that list. It's relatively normal living compared to ecovillages, intentional communities and communes. The latter can get very, very extreme depending on which one you join. Hostels aren't really intentional communities, they're more like hotels where people sleep in the same space.

No. This narrative that all the power is at the top is incomplete at best. What you’re dealing with is a complex system where the people influence the elites and the elites influence the people simultaneously. It is not possible to have a truly top down, authoritarian regime. Although certainly some structures of government (like monarchy, hint hint) can push it that direction. You very clearly believe you have solutions. You said the best hope for the future is “liberal monarchs to unite distinct kingdoms” in your original post. Don’t squirm your way out of it now. Will you find it so cool to break things when it’s your head that’s on the line? Or will you wise up and realize breaking things has real consequences?
-
@RoyalFool I don’t disagree that democracy has flaws. But I deeply disagree with your solution being monarchy. Monarchy cannot solve any of the problems you described, and in fact democracy arose because monarchy failed so badly. If you go back to monarchy, all that will happened is that people will eventually begin to demand democracy again. It’s a natural consequence of the raising consciousness of a society. And we’ll be right back where we are now.

Actually it’s not totally wrong. It’s just that Prager badly fails to understand Green because he is Blue. Affluence + secularism would likely indicate a person who has moved to stage Orange on the spiral. They’ve handled some of their basic survival needs. But Orange has its limits. And and people start to wonder if there is more to life (stage Green). They might start caring more about equality and doing good in the world, even if it’s a bit naive and misguided. In other words, they move politically left and up the spiral. That is what is supposed to happen. Blue cannot not comprehend that Green is more evolved then them because Blue hasn’t been there yet. So to Blue it looks like a regression, when in reality it is progression.

@Jacob Morres I’m sure if we did the same thing with a bunch of conservative college kids, they’d just act cordial and supremely educated the whole time.

Assuming it legitimately was telekinesis, the answer would be the same reason for anything: reality is One and you are God. I’ve not consciously developed such abilities so I couldn’t tell you how to do it. There do seem to be teachers on YT though who can help you if you dig deep enough (Sean McNamara, Trebor Seven etc).

@Rasheed You can find Green and even some Yellow at top universities. My perspective is that Green is currently the leading edge of consciousness for the majority of the planet. Most people are Orange, Blue or even lower than that. So to expect anything higher than Green/Yellow at top universities would be an error. That level of consciousness is already extremely radical for many people. Of course if you’re already sitting at Green or above, than you’re likely to be unimpressed. Green perpetually seems to mistake its level of consciousness as a given. So people at top universities are serious philosophers, compared to the majority of the planet. They may just not be be serious compared to the extremely small proportion of Tier 2 thinkers.

@UpperMaster Yes and no. It definitely could be motivating. And there's nothing wrong with competition per say. Until it becomes a problem. One issue is how do you properly decide who is the "best" in a field? Especially if your field is more subjective, like art. Even in sports, which has statistics to back up claims, people can still barely decide. So you may end up chasing a never-ending phantom. The other issue is that too much obsession with your career or life purpose can potentially distract from deeper consciousness work and / or relationships and other areas of life. So you really have to be clear about what you want out of life. I'm personally not interested in a being a David Goggins type of person. Seems like he has a lot of internal war he is still working through.

Watch his 6+ hour series on this topic. This question will easily be answered.

Basically this. If radical Green feminism is your biggest problem, you’re doing pretty well overall. Which is not to say it shouldn’t be addressed. But let’s put it in its proper context.
-
It’s edgy but still in range for going mainstream. Society is not just conservative Blues. We have a lot of Orange and Green too. Orange is unlikely to care about this because Orange has mostly shed the moral system coming from Blue. And Green loves anything that trolls the Blue. Overall we are in fact evolving out of Blue. Blue doesn’t like this and is continuing to push back, but things move forward regardless, one music video at a time.

This is good advice. If you have this sort of lack mindset, it can really turn people off and come across as creepy. But I want to add some nuance for anyone reading this as well. I’ve found that my dating life is always the best when it’s a top priority in my life. And when it’s not a top priority, it starts to slack. This just makes obvious sense. Having an abundant dating life requires a lot of time, energy and commitment to that area of your life. Which requires you to make it a priority. In reality, if I truly have something better to be doing, I just end up doing that thing instead. If you truly have something better to be doing than dating, than you won’t be spending much time dating. You’ll be doing those other things. Either choice is fine and just really depends on what you want. There can be crossover of course. Working on your career might give you the money to be successful in dating later. But still, at some point you have to make dating a priority if you want success in that area. Otherwise, you’ll just be a rich guy who works all the time. And I can guarantee that a guy who is partying all the time trying to meet girls will have a better dating life than that guy.

@Tudo I would already consider it dated. There are some valuable critiques he makes of capitalism, but it be an error to get perpetually stuck on Marxism for the vast majority of people.

@GrandeOrso It's a cool LP if you're really into traveling and the nomad lifestyle. I do feel like the travel blog thing has been done to death though. Unless this is just a fun hobby, I'd be looking at much different mediums than a blog.

People can flake for all sorts of reasons that have nothing to do with you. In general though, people rarely flake when the perceived value of an offer is high enough. So continue to add more value into the situation. This is part of my qualm with people who get dogmatically focused on “you are enough” and “dating is just about being yourself”. These are non-nuanced, simplistic truths about social dynamics. It’s possible that the perceived value of what you are offering is just too low. In that case, people will flake quite a bit. So instead of asking how to reduce flaking, instead ask “how do I make what I’m offering irresistible to those who will also value it?” That second part is key because value is always, always relative. And so one person could see what you’re offering and think “wow this is so amazing, I will drop everything for this!” , while someone else will say “meh”. And they both will be right FOR THEM. So an actual irresistible offer is impossible. There is no such thing that could exist to all people. Flaking still will occur. But it’s still a good head space to be in, provided you balance that with healthy inner beliefs about yourself and don’t fall into perfectionism.

Never heard that story. That is remarkable.
