I use only sea salt and in moderation and love salted/spiced up foods. The other day I slightly oversalted a dish and had a light headache the following day. Any ideas how much salt is too much?

@Preety_India Have you heard of the pain body? Eckhart Tolle has good talks on it. You are not your pain. Dis-identifying from the pain body proved to be very beneficial for my healing and it happened right before my awakening. Another thing that helped me was focusing on doing things that I loved like self-care and listening/reading/watching something that made me laugh. I remember while going through a process of dis-identifying from the pain body, I was naturally drawn to watching stand-up comedy and having regular massages.

Yep, in a nutshell

@Opo Cool, thanks. Just watched Dr Berg's potassium recommendations and I do have beet tops, spinach, and avocados in my fridge right now. Will make a smoothie later for lunch. I also try to eat a banana a day, but interestingly he didn't include it in his list.

@Michael569 Good to know, thank you for the info and suggestions. I do need to be more careful now when it comes to consuming sodium.

@Preety_India Yes, I had a sodium overdose. I didn't drink enough water the following day, but yesterday went to a dry sauna (sweat lodge) and drank plenty of water and felt better. My sweat was super salty in the sauna. Hope I got most of the excess salt out of my system. I will test my pH tomorrow morning with pH strips to see if the levels are back to normal.

@IamMystic Silly funny stuff, gets you to chuckle :-D

@Hardkill I would say women crave affection more than sex. It's deeply wired into female psyche the need to feel secure emotionally, physically, and financially. Besides most women don't have tostesterone levels as high as men's, so an average female won't need as much sex (intercourse), yet would take affection like hugging, cuddling, hands holding, kissing, etc any time.

@ShugendoRa A compassionate approach to resolve this would be to be honest with her and tell her how you feel. Then give her a couple months to find herself a job and move out. In the meantime start acting like a single man - sleeping in separate beds, not doing couple stuff, doing and eating what you want, start going out on your own, maybe bringing a new girl home, etc. I know this is sensitive, but she needs to know you're not a couple anymore, just roommates temporarily. A word of warning, though, to be careful, exes get crazy sometimes and no telling what a desperate person might do depending on their level of emotional instability. Another approach would be if you're renting, not to renew for the next year and both of you just move out and go your separate ways. Never feel guilty about your decisions to follow your path. Others need to learn to respect your boundaries. And those boundaries start with yourself.

@Megan Alecia I've read Sam's book and am subbed to his chanel and have probably watched 95% of his videos and talks. He's a genius in his field of expertise and his warnings are real. Also love Sam's interviews, esp with Richard Grannon, the Spartan coach. Thank you for sharing this.

More like dopamine kind of happy. That's not true happiness, that's a high followed by a low in a cycle. They feel 'happy' during a high and sad/confused/melancholic/bored during a low. Usually people would let you see only their happy front, esp on social media. Besides, when you're excited/dopamine happy, you're not peaceful. True happiness is based on peace.

@preventingdiabetes Deconstructing, not developing.

@tuckerwphotography Thank you! And I'm not completely against the conventional medical way. I had a surgery and that was a very good thing. I know there are those out there who wouldn't do anything outside of holistic and that's another extreme. I did, however, integrate both systems, and decided to switch to alternative after the surgery. I did what I thought would work best for me despite what my onc was telling me (more chemo, radiation, pills, etc). A lady I knew from the church years ago chose to go strait conventional and didn't live. She trusted the system too much and not enough her intuition/higher self. And yes, you're right, staying open-minded, integrating, and self-education is definately the way to go

For enzymes. Cooking tends to deplete food of live enzymes. I also love fermented/pickled foods, like sauerkraut, etc that offers live probiotics. The only exceptions for cooking would be beans, potatoes, rice, buckwheat, quinoa, and other gluten-free grains.

@ilja I've been transitioning to animal free diet and exploring with protein rich plant food. My ultimate goal is to go raw eventually.

Wonder if the world quit eating meat and all animal products, what would that industry do with farms still full of animals, start killing them off without making profit and go bankrupt?

Yes, letting go of an identity/being a nobody is actually very liberating. Many teachers point to that for peace and happiness, and Leo also lists it in his vid 10 Things You Don't Know You Want.

@BNP Beats Cool, enjoyed it

@Calmness Yes, as they say 'prevention is the best cure'. That means more education. But how conventional docs can educate others if medical schools allow only a handful of hours on nutrition and it's effects on health. Also, nothing is taught in med schools about body-mind connection, or at least not yet. Our body has a unique ability to heal itself given proper care and nutrition, which takes time and self-discipline. We live in the age of quick fixes, immediate gratification, consumerism, and shallow values. The worst virus being the media brainwashing that we unassumingly get bought into at times. Knowledge is power. Thank you for the discussion.

He's truly free and it shows

@Calmness Holistic approach to health and alternative medicine is Green, not Blue. It's called alternative, because the conventional approach has proven to only addresses the symptoms, not the actual root of health problems. The first thing a doctor should advice a patient is to detox all the garbage out of their body/do a thorough cleanse on a cellular level, and balance their pH. That alone would eliminate a need for half of the drugs and treatments and reduce med fraud. Which would make a lot of their profit go bye-bye. The docs are trained to keep you in a between state - not fully healthy and not quite dead yet - so you become dependent on them and keep coming back for more business/ checkups and shit. No one knows your body better than you do. I even learned how to read my own blood test results. I don't need a doctor to tell me what my levels mean. It's not rocket science. And quick fixes never work long term.

@nistake Nice His best advice "Love now!" Gold

Ok, understood. Thank you.
