Grateful Dead

Interesting. In what way do you think this can help in terms of mindfulness meditation? @Findus I think it would be best to work on your life purpose mainly and while you do that try to get your addictions under control. How often do you use weed and alcohol? It's good to do some stupid things when you are young and have some fun imo but you need to know when to stop and get shit done. Psychedelics and meditation are very powerful to get rid of addictions. Leo for example suggests in a video that to get over addiction you should do one hour strong determenation sitting every day.

I am going to try plugging for the first time tomorrow. Is 10mg a good dose to start? I got freebase. I have vaped 5-MeO but never a breaktrough dose. Now I want to test the waters on Saturday (10mg) and do a breaktrough dose on Sunday (15-20mg). What you guys think about that?

Seems like your not in such a bad place try also to make exercise a habit you have to move the body and get active just force yourself in the beginning you will soon love it

@Leo Gura Did you tried weed? I always thought that you really like it because it’s so good for contemplation.

are you into the grateful dead?

Maybe for now focus on only one technique to get the hang of it.

Did you smoke cannabis after the shift? If yes how is it different now?

I enjoy meditation since the day I started it. In the beginning I only did 20 minutes every day and then once 20 minutes were easy I did 5 minutes more and so on until I got to an hour. What kind of practice are you doing? I experimented with different kind of techniques until I found the best for me. Some days I also have to suffer through it for a while but most days are enjoyable and I also start to feel more and more positive effects from the practice. I think if I wouldn't enjoy meditation I wouldn't do it, there are so many different techniques, the best would be to find something you resonate.

felt like I was meditating while I was listening still think about all day that he said we never experience sleep and that I can't explain how I move my hands lol

my biggest fear is to become seriously ill or a cripple like cancer, losing eye-sight or paraplegic

5-6 hours is normal, the rest is just after glow. I have experimented alot with LSD tolerance. Your plan to tripple the dose seems good to me. It's highly depended on the dosage of course. If you take 100ug then yes after 2 weeks your tolerance should be almost back to baseline. But if you take for example 500ug it can take 2-3 months for the tolerance to reset completely in my experience.

Dune is exactly what you are looking for

Lol now we have that in common too ? I saved up money to pay a private school because of that but if you want to become a psychotherapist you can't do that anymore. Yeah as you said, it's in its very early days even in basic understanding of the human psyche imo. Spirituality etc. is basically non existent in most areas because they try so hard to be 'scientific'. Also there are many different schools which teach very different methods and come to different conclucsions, its really weird if you look into it. But I think its going in the right direction and of course they have done some pretty amazing research already and the cool things is there is still so much to discover and to change in that field. I think Stan Grof is lightyears ahead of everyone and has a pretty good vision of the Future

I am studying pychology. Not sure if it's worth for you, it depends on what your goals are. I don't think you need to get a master in psychology to do public speaking unless you want to be like Jordan Peterson xD... I think @Moksha has a PhD in psychology but not 100% sure.

@lostmedstudent bro have you ever seen what changa looks like? good luck with that

Damn I knew about the heroin but the crack is new to me lol Yeah the price you pay is your ignorance.

Come on bro this is a bit harsh.. the word junkie is so dirty, I think no fellow being should be called trash I see no problem with recrational use of psychedelics. There is basically no down side to it and they will make you a better person even if you just do them for fun, at least that happened to me and all of my friends. Of course if you do it every day or multiple days a week this will be a problem but you should be fine using them once or twice a month in moderate dosages.

for self-introspection purpose I think LSD is better but you can just try both and see what works best for you weed tolerance won’t matter

@cetus looks like he could have seen the dead in their prime lol

Wtf man whats your secret?? How do you consume it? I really like weed but I stopped using it because the day after or even two days after I am so freaking lazy like nowhere near my normal state... Also used to smoke once or twice a week and a similar dosage

The Neti-Neti Methode is pretty cool I think but I haven't done it enough to say much about it.

Interesting.. Good point. I really need to investigate this more deeply thanks for the pointer ?

Yeah I get it. But isn't that normal? I kind of feel like if you instantly realize you are God and you didn't get a taste of Infinity before it might be a bit to much to handle in the beginning. Maybe these are just my fears..

did you realize that during your first 5-MeO experience? or even before 5-MeO with other psychedelics? I know that Tom watches your videos for years and even tried to do a podcast with you
