Because people are different, do bad things. There is so much hate in the social ecosystem -
I’m going out to a show with my drummer. I think he has a lot he can teach me about the music scene, how shows work, meeting people, etc I sense if I don’t get my character in alignment with what is needed for a sustainable band I will crash and burn. I’ve got a lot of good stuff going in my life despite a lot of challenges and my own weaknesses. Most of my problems are just my own operating system. All current external problems are from mistakes of the past of this flawed operating system.

@Realms of Wonder Because I desire to have a pretty big band (members and impact) and my struggles with communication makes me seems like a hard person to deal with. If I wanna have a band that lasts I need to be able to work with them in a high level professional manner with integrity and intention.

“Thank you, for love” ”Your welcome” ”This moment is perfect. All is forgiven. All is understood. It’s all I’ve ever wanted. It is the highest good” ”This is your true nature. You are infinite love. All passing tides and storm. Deep in the ocean of consciousness lay, a calm and peaceful pearl” “I am all beings, I am all time. I love and accept all for I have stumbled upon holy ground. Surely there is nothing higher, nothing more profound” ”All before was but a nightmare of collected experiences. This is the first day of your life. You are the greatest miracle in the world” “Year after year has passed, walking with a delirious head. Claiming truth to shadows, not knowing what was just inside my head.” ”The sailor crosses the sea, to the blessed isles” ”well, the road is long and the stars are my light. And darlin I might not make it back tonight. But when I do and it’s in my hand. Well, now I’m saying things that you don’t understand.” ”Beneath the wave, a bell tolls. It’s calling you, it’s calling you! Fear is the lie that truth hides behind. So tell me. Am I the one you love? Am I God?” - Engramn ”Oh, the dreamers they surround us. See the ropes their tied up in…. See the city dangling!” - Engramn -
@Mindful Bum Idk man, mental illness is sort of for professionals. It’s too much of a liability IMO… I mean, Connor Murphy vs idk, the average Actualized.org participant are pretty different.

@Leo Gura Honestly, I generally enjoy the full episodes without complaints. I resonate with most of your epistemology and sometimes don't. I like what I read in Vernon Howards work about not always liking or agreeing with a teacher. I like the points, objections, possible interpretations etc. I like hearing someone think like that as well. I am hoping that by doing my own work, plus listening to someone who seems so well thought out my own ability to think will improve over time. So far, I think it's working. I like the impact I have on those around me lately.

@Razard86 My ADHD diagnosis and the help I received in elementary school saved my life. I really struggled for the first 4 years. But I got tutoring because I couldn't read at like grade 4. By grade 5 I had a grade 12 reading level. Did really good in Jr high (I won an award for most athletic academic student). I had ADHD, for sure.. but also genius level aptitudes. I am pretty sure I had/have ADHD. I had trouble focusing, could see sounds (I still can) and any little sound would distract me. I also struggled with emotional regulation more compared to other kids. Still do in some ways. My ADHD, traumatic up bringing etc got in the way of my path a little bit. Some of the survival mechanisms... etc. But, Onward !

I think I abused pot in the past. The worst thing you can do it use it chronically, and smoke or vape it which damages your lungs. My parents make weed brownies and... I only need a 10th of one to feel a desired effect. Eating a whole one just makes you mentally retarded honestly. Though, I am sure weed was useful at times in my past. I think it also made me paranoid and yet addicted to it. Who is to say. I am very joyful that I don't smoke hardly these days. It tooks YEARS to quit it. It's fucking addictive. Especially if you are hurting emotionally like I was. I used to be such a hippy, reading spiritual books, journaling, writing song after fucking song. I'd smoke a lot and walk around listening to my songs a lot. I wrote hundreds of songs... I will return to song writing soon. The secretary at my old job smoked a lot... She seemed a little goofy honestly. I think weed has put me behind a few years on some things. But, then again I don't know. It's all so complicated. It also helped me through a lot as well. Hard to say.

@Leo Gura Personally like them objections and warnings. But, sometimes you do repeat things. I like it because it helps me deepen your points. Sometimes I don't have any objections with you, but when you share them I sense I understand the social landscape better as I assume... that the objections are things you've had or others also have.

There are causes for laziness I guess. I feel like some people are lazy.

Which is why Leo has it on the book list

@Mindful Bum Look, the way I took it (I don’t consider myself necessarily mentally ill but traumatized… but still felt the message nonetheless…) I took it like this. As Leo’s relationship to us as a teacher he is explaining the scope of his work. People should be aware of the limits of the focus of actualized.org. So, perhaps from Leo’s perspective he is focused on helping people reach the highest levels of development humanly possible. Yet, many of the symptoms of mental illness are tricky, complex, nuanced and really to be addressed require people with specific training. But, clearly from this part of the video and Leo’s work in general that’s not his skills or focus. It’s important that he says these thing maybe, even if it’s harsh or cold. I was able to listen to it as someone with trauma and relate as I have had times of drama and whirlwind in the past. I would have to be selfish to put people through that in a sense. I think it’s actually an intelligent move to avoid people with mental illness if you are building a powerful and stable life. That isn’t to stigmatize people with mental illness in society but protect yourself, time, energy and mental space to fully actualize your potential. In some way, if you have mental illness… you have to recognize that for people who don’t have it… they may not want to spend time with someone who is unpredictable, dramatic, delusional, easily triggered or however their illness is symptomatic of. That’s just a harsh truth. If someone like Leo is stable minded and is pursing the best life possible… he’s gonna cut you out as he doesn’t have interest in that. He may have friend who have mental illness that he doesn’t even know they suffer from me suffer from I’m the past. But, he focuses on quality relationships. It’s also an important message because it may push you away from actualized and pursue people with more specialized training. Actualized may attract many people who are not ready for these videos and it may do more harm than good if they aren’t given a push to realize the limits of Leo and actualized. It’s not truly meant to be a mental health clinic or therapist. It’s a deeply scoped life coaching channel, he doesn’t know any of his students. Leo did a lot of self reflecting on his flaws, how his words and actions affect others, the areas he wants to improve on etc. People with mental illness watching him should have the capacity and awareness to do the same. But, honestly many may not. There’s a much bigger world outside of actualized.org full of rich, deep and powerful resources for the mentally ill.

For cobra pose you can activate the tops of your feet pushing them into the mat thus keeping your knees off the mat and create a more full body stretch. you can also keep the bottoms of the feet or toes on the mat to keep the knees elevated. Explore some variations.

It can be a bad idea to do it at home. Don’t trip around family.

@NoSelfSelf Yeah, It's really about you, but also you emotional intelligence. There is probably.. an almost friction between you and her? You may have good game, but she may not be attracted. It may be a roll of the dice combined with what you said above.
