Butters

This is the easiest meditation and is very profound. You can start today. Do this short exercise after you wake up and before sleep in bed. If you're feeling stressed or depressed, the breathing will relief tension from the body and the mind. Doing this daily will make you feel better in the long term. Millions of people are doing this method for overall better mental and physical health. It has helped me a lot.

Keep doing it. Whatever form of daily meditation you do will very slowly take effect. Just like self actualization meditation is life long work and they go together. I haven't done it seriously yet, but I will try.

Good post. Try Moda + microdose acid if you're missing creativity.

I've been on and off Moda for about 2 years now. Overal a net positive for me, same pros as OP. The only thing is I have a hard time falling asleep at night, even when I took the Moda 16 hours earlier. Also developed tolerance for sure. I used to be maxed out with 1/4 pill now I can comfortably take a full pill and get the same effect. @Leo Gura how have your experiences been lately, did you develop any tolerance?

Yes I was about to make this thread. Proper use of AI Improper use of AI Dangers Future of AI With Leo's game developer background and spiritual work this should be very interesting.

I still struggle with this. I'm self employed and have wasted a lot of money last year on bullshit like weed, food, going out, smoking and disposable vapes, even webcam apps. I've now started budgeting more strictly but still so easy to go over. I can be disciplined about this on Monday, think about keeping my money and investing it into all sorts of good but then go back to this bad habit on Tuesday. It's like my brain associates this reckless spending with freedom "aaah I can make an exception" feels like I'm taking back my freedom.

DUUUUDE this one is fucking SICK @Leo Gura

Word I knew I shouldn't have quit

You guys on here still asking Leo questions like a bunch of noobs EDIT: Nevermind, its pickup advice sucks

Awesome! A friend of mine has lived there and worked as a teacher. I will keep an eye on this thread, might wanna visit there sometime in the future as well.

Do you enjoy pickup at clubs where lots of molly and drugs are involved? Here in the Netherlands we have fantastic underground techno clubs and I love the environment and friendly atmosphere. Sometimes I get a little confused as some people really don't want to talk while other girls are practically taking their clothes off in front of you or girls kissing each other. It's pretty great, but on the other hand sometimes I just have lots of conversations with random guys and girls and it tires me out, then I'm exhausted and not seeing the pull opportunities anymore. Like social exhaustion. I don't like the after effects of molly so I prefer 2cb, though I wish I could take Molly every weekend lol.

What country do you live in?

I make the designs myself but with basic photoshop skills. I have a subscription to creativefabrica, vexels and a few other sites where I find elements that can be used for Print-on-Demand. I usually alter them a little to fit the niche I'm making them for. Last year I made around €30k but my goal this year is €100k profit. It's rather seasonal, big sales around Christmas. I feel I haven't taken it seriously enough until recently and I'm confident I can scale. I went full time from the very beginning cause I got lucky with masks in early 2020, they were selling like hotcakes on Etsy. Wouldn't recommend that, probably start as a side hustle. Plenty of videos on yt on how to sell on etsy but it's really just about starting. Print on demand is super hot right now.

For those who run a business: What kind of business? How long? Is it full-time? I'll start: I sell clothing (mostly t-shirts, merch) online, mainly on Amazon, shopify and Etsy. This is my third year full time. I have no staff (solopreneur).

I don't know much about this but recently a reiki healing session absolutely did wonders for me. I didn't give this woman any information about myself yet she was able to do some energy work that has been tremendous. That being said I did a chakra balancing session with some other lady years earlier and it was total bs. I've no idea how to tell if someone is legit or not beforehand.

Lately I feel I'm getting my Karma much faster than before. For example I might have some anger or negative thoughts towards someone, then later that day it already boomerangs back in the form of someone (completely different person) being negative towards me. Does karma come quicker when you raise your consciousness?

This has caused me some real mental problems. I've only closed from cold approach once I think. I'm basically waiting for some perfect signal because I've creeped girls out in the past, with career ending concequences so I'm really traumatized in this area. I also have aspergers so that's why I try to wait for that perfect signal. I feel like I've only recently become more socially aware and more confident and attractive so girls expect me to lead them. I'm getting a lot of opportunities constantly, and always fuck them up, knowing I fucked up I feel less of a man afterwards. Then as a result I don't even wanna do cold approach anymore because this issue will always pop up eventually so why even bother. When I go on a date I play it cool, that's fine because I know we're on a date. But I'm too scared to misread signals in the wild and creep a girl out / be inappropriate. I kinda feel extra pressure because I'm a athletic 6'4 guy with strong eye contact and think I come across as not giving a fuck what people think about me. But then when they find out this insecurity or whatever is gonna creep the fuck out of girls and make them feel unsafe. Its like girls expect me to have status and game but really I don't. I wasn't attractive in the past.

Thanks! I didn't wanna even check replies until now cause my post is so cringe. I went out Friday and it went okay, danced and talked to some girls. I think I'll get better as I go out more. Some points of improvement for myself: Open more. I had girls I opened come back later in the night and then they already like me so that's fun. Other girls would just make eye contact and looked bored waiting for me to open them. Don't drink! It makes me so uncallibrated I hate it. I took some 2cb, that's much better and makes me social while remaining consious. And it makes me dance lol. I would recommend it only if you've taken this before, and let wait maybe 3 hours after taking it cause the come up in public transport sucked. I still get confused about what girls expect from me. Like sometimes I just talk but they already expect me to pull them? I need more practice. @Roy This was a bit of a pain body post, it's complicated and alcohol was involved. I've learned this weekend that alcohol really isn't for me, reflecting on lots of earlier moments from my life as well. Just because alcohol is normal in our society doesn't mean I should consume this drug.

Weed just gives me massive brainfog, I don't understand how you can use it as a psychedelic?

I take 2-CB occasionally and it makes me active and happy. I go for walks in the city or hit the gym, it let's me see the art in things, I like it. But I take small doses, usually half a pill to 2 tops. Last night I was at a rave and must have taken like 5 of these little fuckers and it gave more euphoria and some mild visuals. But online it says 23 MG is already a high dose. Can you actually go really deep on this substance if you just take more of it? Is it better to take more pills at once instead of spreading them out throughout the night? I'm more interested in doing the higher doses at home in the future but the club was definitely a fun experience.
