Maybe you should go to the church and work as a volunteer with the homeless or anything, but this doesn't mean that that's the path of everyone. Some people need total isolation for a while to get deep into themselves, then when their being is totally open the relationship with the world will arrives naturally. .

Ah, and you could call clown to other people better, maybe to your mother would be a good idea, just a suggestion. 

Sure, spend time being alone as needed.

And also don't get stuck roleplaying digital identities as a substitute for your life offline.

Why roleplaying? Sorry for the comment btw, I deleted later. Why do you put personal communication above virtual communication? In certain aspects, in the purely intellectual aspect, virtual communication is superior

Virtual communication only has the advantage of closing distance. But it isn't faster or clearer. If you and I were to talk on the phone right now, we would have 1000x better information exchange and would also (in my experience) walk away on more satisfying terms.

It also has the advantage that there is more time to think about what is said and that there is not such an obvious energy exchange, which makes cleaner communication possible in many aspects.

back into the lived experience so that it becomes an effortless flow

Freedom doesn't care about effortless flow. That's a condition. Effortless or not, it's already that even if there's effort. You cannot control effort or effortless. Do you consider constipation an effortless flow? Constipation happens, right and can happen to the so-called enlightened. If you are constipated, that's not effortless flow. Well, we are all constipated looking for enlightenment. That's existential constipation. Looking to make life flow because you're contracted and traumatized thinking something is wrong with life and we need to fix it and then things will become effortless. Effort is a part of what is.
