Leo, as a student that dreams of developing the ability to teach like you, I deeply appreciate you sharing your slideshow that you reference for your talks. ❤️ https://www.actualized.org/insights/lower-vs-higher-perspectives-slideshow-part-1

Yay Leo!

@Samsonov thanks for the tips! I'm learning lots of stuff on reading people's intentions! I'll keep note to get into a Routine, especially when I go down to the South.

@Samsonov thanks! I'm still confused about what the hell to actually do! 😂 Other than just walking around the cities!

Beat me to it! @mmKay Since Leo's postings about theft, and combined with my travels in India and learning about the scams that are everywhere, I have become extremely interested in the whole topic of scams and Theft. It is SO fascinating! Makes me excited to hear what Leo has gathered.

@Porphyry Fedotov I plan to visit all over. Rishikesh, Delhi, Jaipur, Varanasi, Bangalore, Mumbai, Etc.

https://www.actualized.org/insights/automatic-love Dude, this post inspires me so much to get MY ASS INTO GEAR with contemplation. I feel like I'm either 1) Too busy with survival, 2) Too Distracted and scattered with other things, 3) Too Lazy, 4) Too unable to focus on important things when I DO have time for myself. One Day I will figure out how to focus this mind of mine! I want to Collapse every duality in Leo's "Understanding Duality" videos through contemplation. One Two Three I want to exhaust all the points of pre-modern, modern and post modern ideas Leo has listed. I want to contemplate deeply all these deep Questions of life to fruition: How the fuck is anything possible? What the fuck is anything? Where the fuck did I come from What the fuck is consciousness? How do I live the best life? I want to awaken to Every facet listed here and then some. I want to Do 300 Trips on 5MeO. I want to Gain Mastery in Motivational Public Speaking. Not to mention integrating deep insights from videos on topics like Happiness. And I want to Decimate Leo's Book list. Along with Decimating my own book list. So much things I want to do, so little ability to focus. I swear at this point it is my life mission to change that. Anyways I felt passionate writing this all out.

@Majed definetly for sure gotta do pickup there!

So I am traveling to India and then I also plan to travel to Thailand and possibly other surrounding countries after that. The whole thing will be 3 to 4 months. I come here today to ask for tips and advice on how I can use these experiences to grow the most as an individual to really take advantage of the opportunity that I have here. Literally my goal is just to grow as much as I can. How does one grow the most while doing solo travel? What are Traps to avoid that will stunt my growth while traveling? Thank you guys. I've always deeply appreciated your insight and support over the years. Much love to you all.

I pretty much use this forum to read what Leo says, read trip reports, read articles that catch my eye, perhaps read some other really conscious people, and post my trip reports and post on specific things to seek guidance on.

I look forward to meeting Jesters

@Cocolove So I've concluded that the supposedly safest way to go about heavy metal detox and to do the challenge rounds is to see how I do with a low dose round of chelation, and work myself up to a good dose or chelation rounds, and when I can manage that, that is when I go for a challenge test.

I basically did 4 months of detox by working a job where it was so many hours, so busy and it was so remote where I actively chose to use it as an opportunity to detox completely. Here's my suggestion for you. Definetly do the detox. But if you plan to reintegrate after, may I suggest a much more intelligent reintegration process. Because much to my surprize, the addictive behaviours went back to usual as nothing happened. But I will say I have definetly noticed a huge positive rewiring away from the instant dopamine hits. Definetly felt the positive of rewiring my brain from taking that much time off of the dopamine hits. But don't assume you're then immune to an addiction. Similar to an addiction to alcohol, once an alcoholic, always an as alcoholic. Always got to watch yourswlf like a hawk and have systems put in place and much more abundant things in life to pursue to replace the shallow dopamine hits. Book to consider: Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport. Where he discusses a 1 month process of detox and then an intellegent reintegration with technology with developing a personal philosophy with why you're using any of these potentially distracting devices/apps.

"Would you like butter with that popcorn?" At the movie theater. "Sure". The butter is $7. Proceed to watch a shitty movie. Serves me right for trying to have a popcorn and a soda, felt like crap after from the food and the movie! So glad I got a lovely reminder as to why I don't buy popcorn or drinks at a movie theater anymore. And why I check the ratings first.
