LoL the overflow thread to "Nahm Demoted" thread... -
LoL, it's easier if at least one of them leans towards asexuality and/or is not attracted to each other in that way.

Hmmm, as far as I have gathered from Andy's protocol, DMSA is the way to go and works better on lead than mercury (not sure about the brain and how much it collects there but I imagine with osmosis it would work its way out eventually?). Seems like the main differentiation is that you can do an initial 8 rounds, then just 1 round of DMSA every 1-2 months and continue for 3-5 years lol. Supplements are the same for mercury except you don't need zinc and magnesium.

I have found tremendous solace and healing in sad/heavy/sacred kind of music, it has probably saved me from possibly going down a self-destructive path. If it feels addictive it probably just means you have more to move through/grieve and that it's a language that speaks to you. Classical music in particular was so great at leading me from utter grief to transcendence and love. I do not know if music alone would've been enough to be where I am now which is a level of peace I haven't experienced before. Writing, reading and understanding, spirituality all played important roles. Therapy - having my shadow sides seen and loved unconditionally with a healer was what completed the circle for me. Sounds like you're very in touch with where you are at right now and this is a healthy thing to totally let your feelings come up and be 'seen'. To me, it's the only way to move through it.

There are different takes on how a UBI should run/look like but the point is towards simplification not complication as is currently with existing social supports, the less conditional it is the more accessible which is the point of 'universal'. Could just start as like a 'dividend' of whatever surplus is collectively generated up to some sort of 'cap'. Yes, people will argue endlessly over what the appropriate amount is and why we would give such a dividend to someone like Jeff Bezos but that's kind of a distraction to not do anything at all.

@Forza21 Because that's not what Leo says in every post/thread, he does give practical/relevant answers most of the time.

Do what feels right to you. Try a bunch of things and see what feels good to you. That way you have a higher chance of finding someone that resonates more with you I think. Personally really enjoy the process of getting to know someone too.
-
@Onecirrus Yeah it's unfortunate... seems like people who are loudly opposed to a UBI (even some leftists) also often are the struggling 'working class'.
-
And that is no small feat.
-
@Raptorsin7 I'm sorry about your experience.. yes there is stuff in the relative that can be worked on/healed and shouldn't be bypassed imo. Sounds like that's what you needed to move through whatever struggles you were/are going through.
-
@Raptorsin7 What I was always a bit confused by was that @Leo Gura stated in his Guidelines: What’s NOT Allowed: Self-promotion Coming here to start your teaching/coaching/guru business by leeching off this audience Not sure how this was an exception/was allowed to continue for so long.
-
Meeting people where they're at seem a common issue... and he perhaps has more influence in this as a mod. Personally don’t have trouble with his style but I can see how some can get frustrated. You're still loved @Nahm , I recall getting alot from your reply in my very first post here asking for help and getting a similar feeling of love and care with some of your replies to others. Don't change that about you.

I second this. Thirded.

Nice multi-racial female facepalm, where are the dudes though? ? -
Depends on the approach, can be green/yellow. How much does someone attempt to understand and balance multiple sides/the complexity of the issue/having nuance/new information vs having a one-tracked mindset with every issue (eg, some social cause they believe in) and try to fit everything into that theory. Maybe it's not common yet to find authors/advocates who try to balance multiple sides because those tend not to get 'popularized', but it doesn't mean people who study it currently or policy makers for example don't try/attempt to so it totally depends on how you're using it. The field itself like anything is capable of moving towards Yellow just like other "fields".
-
@Matthew85 Yeah.. I don't know how it happened over time but deconstruction prob played a role.
-
@Gnosis well that's just like telling someone trying to chop down a tree for some wood for burning and telling them the tree is imaginary.

@Siedah You can also stretch that argument to infinity though, at what point should you stop? "You're just not serious enough" to cough up the money has been used over and over by "gurus". Leo seems to want to find the right balance between the two. -
You can experience it with 'strangers' too. I guess if they're also totally present with you .

Well I don't think it's unreasonable you may initially get a "I want to vomit" reaction.. Hopefully it subsides though. -
Is it possible that you hold some negative beliefs around being assertive? Labels like "bad", "bitchy", "difficult", "tense", "selfish", etc. Maybe these kinds of labels are holding you back from being assertive. Often people use guilt tactics on us which reinforces those kinds of labels and keeps us trapped in not speaking out/take actions. One could start by reframing one's intention for being assertive such as "I am honoring my values", "I am just as deserving of love and understanding as the other". Another aspect is to welcome the 'aloneness' this may bring on and confront any fears you may have about what people might say or do. Easier said than done but I've been there .

@SgtPepper Yes of course it is more than that . -

@Hello from Russia What are you smoking, $1000 is a lot of money esp considering a lot of people here struggle with keeping 'regular jobs'. Best case is a price that is just enough for deterrence imo. -

@Vincent S ❤️? -
This may not be completely resolved through knowing something. It most likely has to do with a lack of being seen and accepted for all of who you are growing up. Therapy can be very useful for this but I get the barrier to access. Unless one day it just occurs to you that it’s a construction .
