@abrakamowse I'd like to visit the place too.. next time you guys go, let me know.

@Falk Here's a good talk by Eckhart Tolle on how to deal with unconscious people: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqr98O8QT3M

@Lorcan

@abrakamowse Abra, which ones in the group pic are you and Neil?

That's not what I meant. Balance is important. If you watched Leo's vid on minimalism, you'd see my point.

Thank you, any time

@jes Leo has a video library on how to overcome insecurities: http://www.actualized.org/articles/the-power-of-self-acceptance http://www.actualized.org/articles/how-to-stop-judging-yourself http://www.actualized.org/articles/how-to-love-yourself http://www.actualized.org/articles/how-to-be-more-confident http://www.actualized.org/articles/self-esteem http://www.actualized.org/articles/low-self-esteem-in-women http://www.actualized.org/articles/understanding-the-authentic-self http://www.actualized.org/articles/how-to-stop-caring-what-people-think-of-you http://www.actualized.org/articles/how-to-stop-comparing-yourself-to-others http://www.actualized.org/articles/how-to-deal-with-criticism-trolls-and-haters

@jes You're making the right decision by setting personal boundaries with your toxic Dad . No one has the right to control or own you, but yourself. I know it's hard, been there. Feel free to PM me any time. Hugs

@Lorcan The stuff that seems unimportant that we learn in school build neuron pathways in the brain and expands our awareness. Education/ learning was one of the few items Leo listed in his must-have things in his recent video on minimalism, and for a good reason. That dead language you're talking about is part of your country's history and the 'father' of the language you speak now. If you're overwhelmed with your studies, try to un-clutter some of the other stuff out of your life - hobbies, hanging out with friends, family commitments, etc. http://www.actualized.org/articles/lifestyle-minimalism

@jes This is a great channel to learn more about narcissism. He had a narc dad too. Hugs

My ego tried to switch to a different activity, so those days I couldn't log in to the forum, I hit the gym and beach almost daily.

So is the need for forum and posts

@Neill My son had headaches for years and after he got detoxed with a help of a professional naturopath (took a few months), his headaches completely went away. They tested him before he started a detox program and found out there was an amount of heavy metals still in his body (he was 15 at the time) that childhood vaccines are loaded with. He does better at school now, has more energy, concentration, lost a few extra pounds with ease, and stopped getting acne. In my personal case, I had to have mercury (from the amalgam fillings), as well as nicotine (I was second-hand exposed to my dad's smoking as a child) detoxed. 25 years later nicotine had been still lingering in my body, even though I never smoked a single cigarette in my whole entire life. These are extreme cases, and yes diet/ exercise is overall the answer. When we were getting detoxed, a lot of formulas the naturopath was using contained chlorella. I still use it daily in my green morning smoothies for continuous detox from environmental and food pollution.

Hi everyone! I'm starting this thread to wish Leo Gura Happy Birthday, which is coming up April 24th. Happy Birthday, Leo! And thank you so much for all you do! Your hard work, dedication, and contribution to humanity all over the world are greatly appreciated! You rock!

Better late than never

@Natalya Also, check out other YouTube material on narcissists in the workplace, very informative and insightful. Hugs

@Atom Thanks. And please keep your posts - they're informative and I like to read them

@HGGabrielF Also, check out his other vids on everything you need to know about dating and relationships

@Woman This is a good one too. Leo gives a solution: http://www.actualized.org/articles/overcoming-addiction

@abrakamowse From reading your posts it's evident you've been initially self-realized/ awakened. This is a good place to be, so don't feel discouraged. Leo will be posting a video on the stages of enlightenment soon, so we can learn and grow into yet higher awareness. As he said to take this process in baby steps and to enjoy the journey. Also, keep referring to Ayla's 'Mind Attack After Initial Seeing' when it feels tough. Helps me a lot. Hugs

@mikeyy

@Woman Take some time apart from the relationship/ the guy, give yourself space, and focus on building yourself up. Once you're sufficiently detached emotionally, it will become clear to you whether or not you want to go back to that place again. More likely than not, you wouldn't. Hugs

@Consept Adding to the list: - Raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar with the 'mother' - Chlorella - Spirulina

@abc Not everyone who's self-realized becomes a yogi. There are thousands of awakened people on earth just living regular life, work, pursue their passion, raise families, etc. Self-realization is a perspective. But like @Arnie said above, work on rooting out neuroses (like fear, etc) and build yourself up first. This process is a journey that can take years and decades. My list above is a long-term endeavor. You asking these questions is the starting point, grow from there. Hugs

@Alytheyogi Hope this info helps you put things in perspective. Hugs
