I absolutely agree with that. I consider it as a mild psychedelic and somehow I get flashback to my previous trips when I smoke it, it's like a shape shifting high. Pretty powerful tool for personal development too, if you know how to use it.

Oh god you sound boring. What's the point of life if you can't even let yourself enjoy such a powerful gift without turning it into some lecture. Just let yourself experience life it's not that hard.

Notion is good.

@Leo Gura you should at least tell one of them!

That's really good advice. The best work I've done came out of a few weeks of deliberate practice and research, and after that it just "clicked". I think I'm a bit impatient, I get bored easily and discouraged if the drawing on the paper doesn't match how I imagined it in my head. But obviously, good work doesn't come out of that. Thank you, I try to do all of these things but when I sit down to work I get discouraged easily. I guess it's a mindset / self-confidence problem rather than creativity That's really beautiful, thank you! I'll think about what aids my energy vs. what takes it away, this may help me to flow through creativity more easily. Creativity is such an abstract thing, and the articles I read about how to become creative doesn't really help me because they're mostly written from a more materialistic perspective. I need to read ideas like yours, I'm interested in how being creative is linked to god-consciousness. In fact I'm waiting for Leo to make a video about it for a few years!

I'm studying graphic design and we need to do some assignments every week. It was going well in the first few months but after a while I got burnt out, I wasn't able to act out my "crazy ideas" because the type of designs asked from us are too certain. I've lost some of my creativity, the designs I do look too simplistic and without soul. I really want to have fun making art, but maybe I lack the skills & enough creativity to do it yet. I know these issues won't get fixed all of a sudden, but I really need to do something out it.

I'm also trying to be a graphic designer/artist. Currently studying for my associate's degree. It sometimes gets frustrating because the skills I need to learn seems endless.

I came to this conclusion a lot of times before, but I still don't know what to do about it. I don't know if realizing this improved my life, but it's definitely worth contemplating on.

I had a friend who is attracted to exclusively black people, note that black people population in my country is maybe 1 in 10.000 which is quite rare. I don't know how she managed to find those people but she was bragging about how she only has sex with black people. After spending some time with her I realized she was racist as fuck.

It's the reason every particle in the entire universe exists.

Why do you need me to say if it's possible or not? You can do the research on your own.

I mostly agree with this. If you have some stereotypical "feminine" traits that doesn't mean you have to take cross-sex hormones and surgery to be even more feminine. No one asked to be born as their sex, but it's somehow implemented with our personality and a vast majority of people don't have an issue with this. For the people who really have an undeniable identification with the cross-sex, I really want to learn the scientifical explanation of this away from political correctness. Because "they just know" or "they're trapped in the wrong body" doesn't make me convinced to allow a person with a penis inside my daughter's restroom. Young girls in schools and women in prisons are getting raped because the authorities don't/can't question people's gender identity and just allow any people who identifies as female inside. That's madness and definitely not sustainable, there's a reason why we have separated restrooms for years.

@lmfao I meant I'm not sure if they really felt narcissistic after a trip because all of the statements in their post are valid in some level.

I don't know if it's satire or not but it looks like false prophecy syndrome to me. If you don't return to the village humbled, you did something wrong.

If you wake up early, do exercise during the day and don't drink caffeine near bed time but still has sleep issues you can take a few drops of CBD before bed time. It works wonders if you can't sleep due to anxiety. But obviously you shouldn't overdo it.

Hahahah! Seriously, if I made all the spiritual work without ever consulting psychedelics I'd get lost inside my biases & never know if my conclusions are true or not. Psychedelics are the truest Teacher I know, their teachings are beyond words and anything, and it's more real than any mind-games I can come up with. But obviously, it can't do it if you don't do any work!

Of course. My end goal is to rest within the Love and knowledge of God eternally, but I'm not going to achieve this inside this human form. So what I want to do is gain enough expertise to create the art that will evoke the feelings of Truth in humanity, and get paid for it so I can do more & enjoy life. And die peacefully in the arms of my lover knowing that I've completed my mission in this world. But like you said, that's quite a long road. I've learnt that thinking about the end goal all the time makes me stressed and impatient so I decided to take one step at a time and enjoy the hell out of it.

Honestly I don't remember if they were CBT because I was going to high school back then. The last therapist I consciously chose was an Existential Therapist, I was quite hyped for that therapy but it turns out he is one of those therapists who only memorized all those books and try to categorize me as one of the psychological definitions. He didn't give me any exercises but simply listened to me. I was seeing him about 4-6 months but after a while I couldn't take it any longer. After I quit therapy, I felt more open to different ideas and started to feel interested in spirituality. I listened to one of Leo's guided meditations, and during the trance state I saw very colorful and bright spiral fractals for the first time in my life, I never thought that was possible. That experience opened many doors for me and after a few months I met my soul mate, they are the one who helped me make the real progress. But I'm sure there are lots of therapists out there who REALLY wants to help their patients, this is only my experience from a 2nd-3rd world country with no real business ethics.

I wish you added the source link as well.

It's about the journey, not the destination.

I've always felt disappointed about my therapists. I felt like that person is not actually interested in my life but simply listening to me because I'm paying him. At that moment in my life I was desperate to solve my problems and I really needed therapy but I had to quit because I felt like the core of any human connection was missing: sincerity. I don't think they actually tried to solve my problems neither, I don't remember them showing me a perspective I didn't think about before. What really helped me and saved me from diving into the void was my spouse. They gave me the true therapy I could never achieve from thousands of hours of therapy sessions.

That's an amazing question and a really hard one, I wonder why he didn't make a full video about it yet.

Opera mobile has a dark mode for webpages, it's amazing. I don't think Leo will make a dark mode because I believe he is the only person working for this site, which is quite a bummer. If I had millions of dollars I'd hire a great web dev and a UI & UX designer to make this site look damn good.

Are you texting / calling her too often? Girls don't like it when guys become too clingy. Try to text her less, show her that you can take care of yourself without her, act confident + build a strong character and she won't be ignoring you anymore.

I think both monogamy and polygyny have their own biases. The reason you want to have multiple sexual partners is because humans are selfish by nature, therefore staying monogamous can be a good practice for practicing selflessness. It also depends on the type of love between you and your partner, do you think you both really fell in love with each other? If you did, you wouldn't have the need to have other partners because you would knew that'll hurt your relationship dynamics and no other women, no matter how hot they might seem, complete you as your girlfriend does, both spiritually and physically. So, even if you really think having sex with other people is a way of you to "spread the love of God", you shouldn't do it without the consent of your partner. If you think she also has the right to have sex with other men in order to spread love, you should discuss it with her.
