@Michael569 Thank you once again for your response, your passion for your LP shines through in these posts to say the least, you're gonna help so many people!!!! He recommends up to 4x 15Mg/1Mg Copper/Zinc supplements for Covid-19 with elderberry and a Zinc Lozenge a day. I just meant for alcohol, how much should I pre load, I think the supplement I linked has it in! Big wholefood salad before the next night out, and a Berry smoothie as a post drinking snack- The Girls will be flocking to me... Haha, yeah I sunburn so bad- more berry smoothies sounds fine for me! Yeah- my main bad habit is Peanut Butter, but I've now limited myself to 1 teaspoon in my Oats and NO PB snacks, or I just go crazy. Never gone raw for a day I don't think! What's your top 5 nutrition/ diet books (not too much interested in the Science jargon) for optimizing health and feeling amazing basically. Always looking to learn.

@Meta-Man Are you my spirit animal? You say exactly what I want to, but in a much more coherent way lol. -

@electroBeam Make an education product based on Science and use that description and that's guaranteed sales to scientists. That is a beautiful description of the art of Science, well said bro! -

@Meta-Man I didn’t realise I signed up for it, but am I glad 16 year old me realised how meaningless everything was and it lead to a path of absolute peace, happiness and love, that while it may very destructive only leaves room for truth, which paradoxically means ever deepening peace, love and happiness. -
LfcCharlie4 replied to Leo Gura's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Meta-Man Exactly! I mean I worked with her for months before her book, but I never knew quite how destructive awakening could be until reading that, it’s also very individual and how “fake” your life has been etc. She always said she knew Adyashanti was finished and fully awake by the quote: “Enlightenment is the most destructive “thing” possible” or something along them lines! And, it truly is, but in the best way, as all that remains is what is true! -

@Meta-Man 1000x better in ever way imaginable. Imagine the potential of people who are actually gifted at sport with this understanding! Yep, I wouldn’t say my life turned upside down, but a LOT of things changed in the way they were done. In one example was the Gym. I realised how much I was going because I thought I had to look a certain way, out of going for the love of exercise. So I changed my focus to a workout routine I genuinely look forward to and love/ enjoy (as much as you can enjoy heavy squats!) and changed my focus to overall health and well-being because I love my body and love waking up feeling amazing every day. Yeah, I’ve read most of the book, it’s such an honest and truthful reflection of awakening. I also recommend my teachers “Spiritual autobiography” or whatever you call this genre, which is called “Intimacy With the Infinite” by Ananda Devi, not only is it packed with wisdom and insights, more so her story is more destructive than anything I’ve seen/ heard. Lets just say, leaving your husband for a Spiritual Teacher who you feel is your twin flame, and awakening and being truly you doesn’t tend to sit well with a very wealthy Traditional Jewish family, and wow was awakening “destructive” in her life. But of course, all for the love of truth and what is true. The biography side almost reads like a novel. -

I’m shit at quoting and on my phone so I’ll answer one paragraph at a time bro. Yeah, it was definitely a dark night of the soul kind of phase, but had some knowledge of truths, and was sharing them, like you said I don’t even think now he’s finished Yep, I was the same, I realised no amount of A*s or a 6 figure job would make me totally happy, and realised all was meaningless, at 15/16 that’s hard to take! But, I’m beyond happy I went through that or I wouldn’t be at peace and happy now. Paradoxically, you’re actually more able to enjoy life and “achieve” or “manifest” what you want, as you’re no longer outcome dependent, so you can actually enjoy things. You can actually enjoy playing football without the anxiety of needing to perform to be happy, meaning you’ll actually perform better. So, in Jim’s case he’d probably create much better movies and performances without the need of this moving having to hit number 1, or whatever. I know you mentioned you used to be into bodybuilding. In that case you’d be able to build an even better body for the fun of it, and without destroying your body in the process as your happiness isn’t dependent on it. When you’re already happy and free of outcome dependency the potential to enjoy life skyrockets, it’s the greatest paradox of all. And, a beautiful one! Plus, everything you do also comes from a place of love, happiness, enjoyment, service etc, it’s like the ultimate win-win scenario. And, anything false naturally drops away. Yeah, Russell won’t budge, and I can see why. I know people who are big on drugs, and they only need a few sips of beer to set them on their way. Although, it could be very different with psyches, but after 15 years of sobriety, maybe he doesn’t want to take that risk, which I understand, I’m not sure I would. Who knows, maybe the natural path is for him! -
LfcCharlie4 replied to Leo Gura's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Meta-Man Yeah, I'm not sure Russell ever has had a genuine Non-Dual awakening yet, although he's certainly on the path and has some great guests on his podcast, and is still as funny as ever. Also, I can't imagine how hard quitting heroin must be, kudos to anyone in recovery! LOOOL that's hilarious, I think he's also doing a few more movies, but has realized no amount of money or fame would make him happy, but his movies and what not can of course be an expression of happiness and love. This is VERY rare for someone at that 'level' in life to realize this, I find his interviews when he was going through his original awakenings hilarious, reporters didn't know what to say, I don't think there's anything in the script about responding to Non-Dual truths. -
LfcCharlie4 replied to Leo Gura's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Meta-Man Jim even made awakening hilarious in that video, excellent actor, and one of the very few in that space who has had a genuine awakening. Russell Brand is at least on the path these days, he’s gone from a full time smack head, to Hollywood fame& sex addict, all the way to “regular” (except the millions) family man on a spiritual journey. He’s also extremely funny. I agree, background really means fuck all, I’m pretty sure there is a French comedian who had a spontaneous awakening, I’ll try find his name quickly. Update- can’t find him/ her, I remember he coined a term such as “Transcendental duality” or “Infinite precarious value” but I can’t remember the persons name, oh well! -
@Michael569 You are a fucking hero!!! Always hitting me with those scientifically accurate truths to help! Haha, unfortunately I won't be allowing my body to get too good at the whole processing So start slow! Zinc- How much? I'm loading on Zinc atm due to Corona, from the Drs PDF you recommend Chris, I always forget his name! B Vitamins- These are present in my multivitamin and B12 (I'm vegan) any other way to load on them pre drinking? Bowel and urination- Got IT! So, basically be EXTRA healthy around drinking days, superfood salads, more fruit, and more legumes- perfect. Water in between drink, the one I first learned and rarely apply....need to start! Will get some of them foods! Haha, I burn like crazy will load up on sunscreen for the holiday don't worry about that! Yes, sadly, Chips and Pitta is my go to meal post drinking, again something that needs to be stopped! Fully raw? I'm already vegan, so go fully raw say all day sunday? Thanks for the help as always!

@Michael569 @TrynaBeTurquoise I know you guys aren't the biggest fan of alcohol, however I wanted to ask. Once lockdown is over and normal life resumes (could be 6 weeks, could be 6 months who really knows) social events will resume, and I primarily consume alcohol in 3 situations- 1) Nights Out- Pubs/ Clubs 2) Cricket- After cricket on Saturdays during summer, tends to correspond to nights out, 3) Big football matches, e.g. Champions League nights. The reason is simply to have fun, sorry to say I enjoy it with friends from time to time. However, I have never ever had a drink at home, and will never drink alcohol except in social situations, Professor David Nutt talks about this as one of the main issues- when people started drinking inside their own homes, and not just in social situations. For example, right now I haven't drunk in months due to not being allowed to go anywhere. Anyways, to get to the point, do you have any particular recommendations for minimizing the effects of Alcohol consumption (Max Once a week) and reducing hangover effects. So far this is my regime: Healthy Meal and Smoothie Pre Drinking, , Cold shower, fast etc Drink 1-3 tabs of https://www.amazon.co.uk/Morning-D-TOX-After-Drinking-Digestion/dp/B07F6J1DXV/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=morning+detox&qid=1587989580&sr=8-1 & Lots of water before bed Wake up- Lots of water and electrolytes through a sports drink, then 2-3 cups of Green Tea (wondering whether a fast is best) and 2-3 pills of https://www.amazon.co.uk/Morning-D-TOX-After-Drinking-Digestion/dp/B07F6J1DXV/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=morning+detox&qid=1587989580&sr=8-1 So far these Pills have been the only thing I found that works and makes me feel normal after a couple hours, compared to feeling sub-optimal all day. Only used on 3 occasions this year though, however, the reviews are also promising. Let me know what you think
-
@Michael569 Yep, I don't claim it's healthy or solving any issues whatsoever. Simply, I occasionally drink when out with friends for fun.

@Nak Khid I read 1000 by Ramaji in October 2018, thought it was BS some transmission could help me awaken, decided to email Ananda in December, and eventually got sessions in April, I will write more later but I have a blocker on my browser that is blocking the forum in 10 seconds until after work lol- sorry! -
@LaucherJunge I got you now, sorry sounds like I did misunderstand mate! And, of course, we need a reform where it's people who actually provide the most value 'earn' the most, although, that is, of course, the case internally, spreading love and something of value that genuinely helps people is already MUCH more rewarding than simply digits on a screen from harming/ poisoning people (McDonald's, Some Of Big Pharma etc) And, yes there should be a baseline humans never go below, it breaks my heart seeing homeless people and all anyone says is 'well they shouldn't do drugs then and learn to help themselves' but in reality, they need more help than the majority of us, instead of being ostracised. Shaming homeless people for doing drugs is like shaming fat people for eating Junk food, it doesn't help anyone and probably makes the situation worse. I think this, of course, will happen eventually, but it will take a LOT of reform and change, which many in power won't necessarily want. Just wanted to add, anyone who PMed me regarding what I do for a living, I will reply as soon as I can, but first will make a post regarding online business, also, if anyone wants to contact me and me reply quicker just ask for my FB or Email, forum messaging is the most efficient lol, FB is just s much easier imo.

LfcCharlie4 replied to AlphaAbundance's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@AlphaAbundance I agree, and these methods can both be great in their own right. I personally went the RASA + 1-1 teaching route and it was 1000x more effective than anything else BUT this doesn’t mean it was easy or a magic pill. I worked with and received rasa near enough fortnightly for 9 months, so it isn’t as if you have 1 session and be done with it, the human side was just as valuable to me. It still involves integration work and normal “practices”, I still meditate every morning and likely will for the rest of my life, 1) because I enjoy it and 2) it helps start my day right& ground me. There is also no magic pill, you will still have to do shadow work, face your demons, face the TRUTH (everyone thinks they want to but do they?) and actually get into the trenches of yourself, and trust me it isn’t always pretty or fun. As an Enneagram 7 learning to feel and actually be with my negative emotions was such a hard lesson, after years of distracting myself, opening up and becoming vulnerable to emotion was like opening a huge can of worms. Don’t underestimate the need for normal practices/ integration. It’s not as if you can just get RASA once and be done forever, even @Haumea2018 who needed much fewer sessions, still had to do years of integration work as he said. So, yes RASA (IMo) is one of the best tools available for true awakening, but it isn’t a quick fix, or magic pill. There is still work involved- sorry! -
@LaucherJunge what do you mean people who earn millions and billions off of suffering? Of course wealth distribution is unequal and that needs to change, however I’m not sure the solution is just welfare, it seems a lot more complex than that to me Sorry, I do feel people who work or run a business for a living should be paid more than those who do nothing. I did say I agree everyone should have access to clean water, healthy food, shelter etc, I just meant people who were abusing the system and gaming the system over here in the UK. However, I could Be completely wrong here and could be biased, I just don’t agree people who don’t contribute to an economy should receive the same amount who do, sorry. But, I could be biased! @Leo Gura what’s your view on this out of interest?
-
@GodDesireOnlyLove Fair enough bro, I wish you the best of luck! I guess you are more the exception to the rule really! And, of course if you have value that’s exactly what you Market, you can’t sell if you have nothing of value to sell, unless you’re into scamming people which nobody here is I imagine. Over here in the UK there were literally welfare scams where people would claim enough to take their whole family on holidays to Florida without ever working which essentially was being paid for by Tax money. I found that very unfair where my dad worked 40-50 hour weeks every week, and we couldnt Of afforded a holiday like that, so I agree yes, welfare should pay for necessities, but I don’t think it should cover luxuries for those who could earn an income, but choose not to. Of course, you’re free to choose not to work, but I don’t think that should be rewarded with luxury holidays. If the whole population did this, the economy would fall apart, hence I think welfare is a great stop gap for those in need and who need it. And, just to reiterate I am not saying welfare is bad, everyone should have clean water, food and shelter at the minimum, and healthcare. My point is, if everyone did what you did and nobody worked a regular job or ran a business etc, welfare itself would fall apart! Personally, I could never rely on the government for income if I had the choice not to.
-
@GodDesireOnlyLove No offence here bro, do you not have higher aspirations than to live off Welfare forever? Welfare is amazing, but I’m not sure you’re of great service to humanity simply living off of the state, is there nothing you could do to create your own income and independence? After all, you are literally under the Govs control.

@RendHeaven I run my own online publishing companies, I’m not gonna lie I just LOVE marketing and business, maybe Cos I’m an enneagram 7 haha, but now I’ve fused it with selling things that will help people SO much and working on a huge 5 year project my love for it has just skyrocketed even more! PM me and id love to chat more man if you’re looking to start your own online business.

@fridjonk Haha man you’ll be surprised these days with books, but like any other business it’s about creating a brand and story customers can relate to and want to come back for more! I know fiction “authors” making 7 figures+ and even non fiction guys making close to 7 figures off of like 8 books, so it can be done, just depends how much work and branding efforts you do! And, yeah amazon ads are pretty amazing for books, so I just wondered if it was the same for Products. @Ethan1 Brilliant read thank you man, and it’s great to see fellow conscious people attempting to run businesses, it’s certainly what we need! I wish you the best of luck with your business, has Covid effected it at all? And, I agree amazon is an ever evolving beast that we truly need to understand to succeed on, I imagine it’s even more competitive in the product seller niche. You seem like you have a great understanding of the algorithm though! -
LfcCharlie4 replied to TrynaBeTurquoise's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
@fridjonk Yeah man, this is a niche that’s huge but virtually untouched by anyone with any marketing skills. Eventually we will likely hire someone who is an expert and has a YT channel to shoot an incredible course and use YT ads to then market the course as well as the audience we will have by then. Kind of similar to what Alex Becker used to do, just not in the dropshipping niche lol, or any form of Make money online. YT & FB Ads will be great for getting people to sign up for our webinar to the course eventually, that’s just a long time away yet, we could even use whoever created the courses YT subs potentially, but if not it will be extremely easy to target as there’s literally 1000s of YT channels in this niche. And, yeah the issue with books is the price per lead, but this will be an 8-12 book series, so we will run a long arse email sequence once the customer signs up for the list either through our lead magnet or from the products, as all 8 books will help them further. Sorry went on a bit of a tangent, but yes we will be using FB and YT soon, just Amazon and Amazon Ads are also incredible for building the brand and generating sales, not sure if Amazon Ads Ads as good in e commerce? -
@GodDesireOnlyLove Yeah that’s fair man, I’m not saying it 100% works, but I usually get some form of a hangover the majority of the next day, and I felt completely normal after a few hours!

LfcCharlie4 replied to TrynaBeTurquoise's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
@fridjonk Oh yeah in the E-Commerce game for sure. I’m talking publishing, the new company I’ve just started will be venturing off into our own Shopify store eventually as we will sell online courses and other products, however, using amazon as a base to gain customers and funnel into our email list is the best way for us to start. Remember Amazon basically own the book market these days, I know of one guy who runs FB ads to his store and sells a 3 book bundle at $38, and even then half the comments are saying just go get this on amazon as they have better shipping times etc, it’s not as easy in the book world! And, then with audio books, ACX are far and away the biggest market and they are owned by.....Amazon. I’m testing another distributor now but from what I’ve seen from other results it’s best used only in competitive niches where you get flooded on ACX. Bro, I had no idea you was so into business, I could talk about this all day, everyday, I’ll PM you. P.S. we could then go into the ethics of Facebook lol and how they are literally listening to what you say and taking whatever data they want etc, no company is perfect sadly. We do live in an orange society after all, sadly. -
LfcCharlie4 replied to TrynaBeTurquoise's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
I see your issues with Amazon, and I don’t blame you. I have to run my businesses through amazon, as they have a huge monopoly on the market, until you grow your own audience as a seller it’s literally impossible to make anywhere near what you can with amazon, I know what I sell really helps people in their lives though, and believe me ive tried with other avenues and it’s like 10% of that of the revenue you van generate with amazon. Although, we are working on building our own store eventually and using FB ads to drive traffic, but even then amazon will still help us get more customers. I think what is really needed like the others said, is growth of the system itself, these companies are a product of the system, so as people become more conscious and don’t put up with companies treating staff poorly and what not, these things will slowly be eradicated. But, amazon is essentially the high street of the 21st century, and if you’re a business that doesn’t sell on there, you’re fighting an uphill battle. The best thing is at least protest and sign petitions and do everything you can to force a change in the company and structures we face today. You also have to remember amazon isn’t 100% evil, think about how much they’ve helped people, no company is perfect and amazon are far from perfect, and I’m sure this decade there will be lots of changes, and I feel we will see more conscious business. But, right now I know at least for me boycotting amazon just isn’t an option, the pros far outweigh the cons, and I know I’m coming from a biased position as a seller, but Amazon have helped me help lots of people with my business and I wouldn’t have the life I have without this platform! At the end of the day, you could investigate everything we own/ wear and track it back to somewhere terrible, we need a shake up of the system and I think it is coming, although all great change takes time! -
@GodDesireOnlyLove Yep, I agree always drink lots of water! However, when I took these the hangover symptoms were basically over after an hour, that usually never happens after a night of drinking. Ive only used them on 3 occasions and each time they were amazing, I will buy a bottle for myself and test! They are also meant for before and after, and so far great results!
