Reading the book Cosmic Nutrition by Mantak Chia found this quote ”The Oneness (Wu Chi) splits and becomes two. These two are the poles and energies of yin and Yang. They emerge continuously from this point within the expanse of infinity as a result of the endless movement within the primal sea. By their combination and interplay, the yin and Yang give rise to all forms that inhabit the world of the relative universe. Thus, all antagonistic complimentary dualisms of the phenomenal world are but the two faces of the front and the back of one ultimate reality”. Wow, Chinese medicine has quite the epistemic foundation.

Not on iPhone. Man, YouTube should let you turn off shorts

Interesting, I’m sceptical of its safety

@Breakingthewall They also put mind as more fundamental than matter soooo… God. The Mind of God.

I am finding this very inspiring to listen to. Not sure if this was shared in the forum already.

It’s a combination of thinking, feeling, observing, allowing, forgiving, physically moving, staying still, etc Your thoughts and emotions create each other so you sort of gotta do both. Some of my biggest growth has been a combination for hiking and feeling and reading books lie Byron Katie and others

Your true self can't really suffer. It can only suffer in relative ways. As in, imagining it is human.

@Schizophonia

Thanks for sharing guys. I did some research I think I will use Cera ve in morning and evening and sunscreen during the day. I of course am taking a holistic approach to longevity including nutrition, fitness, emotional wellness, rest and sleep.

I haven’t tried this yet, but my first thought is… what a scam non-stick pans are for health, environment etc if people only knew how to use their pan.

@OBEler I wouldn’t use it for sleep it’s pretty yang

You could try a Chinese medicine doctor for a different opinion. A lot of people poopoo Chinese medicine but it’s actually a pretty good system. They can solve many things western science can’t.

@Jason Actualization looks like that’s for hands and feet. I don’t have a problem with really dry skin. Just want to start a skincare routine for face.

@Vibes Just following my cringe radar

@Sabth Ohhhhh Totally thought you were a guy as well. Well, whats different about you and your sister? I still think you can do more than you are allowing yourself. You aren't a victim, take your time and you will figure out a new chapter of your life.

@Thought Art asked chat GPT there is a difference

@Thought Art I think the Cera ve is better value actually, just realized how small the Bulldog products are. But, now I am wondering if the cleanser is hydrating why buy a moisturizer?

@oldhandle I'll let you figure that out. I get what you wanna do. It's up to you how you go about doing it. Figure out what you can do ethically and legally.

Would you go with Bulldog? I like that it's cheaper https://www.amazon.ca/Bulldog-everyday-Skincare-Moisturizer-Count/dp/B07WN5ZH8R?ref_=ast_sto_dp OR should I go with Cera ve, which I heard Brian Johnston approves of which I like, but it's more expensive: https://www.amazon.ca/Cleanser-Hydrating-Moisturizing-Hyaluronic-Fragrance/dp/B08HF9LPW3/ref=sr_1_4?crid=IMFVTHHD1BM6&keywords=cerave%2Bbundle&qid=1704243335&s=beauty&sprefix=cerave%2Bbundl%2Cbeauty%2C139&sr=1-4&th=1 I am actually looking at the Cera Ve AM and Pm products as well as the cleanser. I have some money set aside for health products this month. I want to take care of my face, as well as buy some supplements.

Don't make this sorts of silly comments

@oldhandle You can make money doing that and have a positive impact on society. Figure out what you need to do to make that a reality, and don't let investing in education be an excuse. If you are working with people with mental health problems, in my opinion getting certified is important. It gives you more credibility and experience from people who has years of actual experience before you. There are many addiction recovery programs out there worth looking into. Your own personal experience is very useful. Remember, a life purpose isn't something you just buy and you have it. Be prepared to invest long term into this. It will be worth it, however you get there.

I don't understand why you can't go outside, why you can't take a bus, why you can't drive. What is going on?

For me, personally if we are together I don't want you hitting on other people. But, who am I? I don't know relationships that well.

What a wonderful opportunity. I don't see why not. His books are very good, very technical and boring. If I could afford to work with him or attend his workshops I would do it. He may not talk about love directly, but his teachings are love.
