Attachment theory is really valuable to study if you want long-term relationship success or conscious relationships. I'd say this is a MUST for you. It's also valuable to understand your partner's attachment style and to understand how each attachment style is generated from childhood — this will help you raise mentally healthy children.
Learning this set of distinctions can also help you screen out potentially toxic partners with highly dysfunctional attachment styles. You want to be good at identify the attachment styles of the people who you're dating and sleeping with as soon as possible.
My attachment style is somewhere between Avoidant & Secure.
What's cool is that if you have one of the 3 dysfunctional attachment styles, you can change that through personal development and spiritual work.

Speaking of toxins, this news just broke:
Do not drink or cook with tap water.
Got my Pfizer booster today. Feeling good.
UPDATE: Side-effects included feeling very fatigued the next day, had to sleep much longer than usual. But this cleared up in 24 hours.
Remember, the issue here is not the presence of side-effects but the delta between the side-effects of a vaccine vs Covid itself. That delta is far in favor of the vaccine.
The promise is not that the vaccine won't give you any side-effects, the promise is that, statistically, Covid is likely to give you worse and more side-effects. Understand this before you get the shot and don't let Social Matrix fear-mongering cloud your decision.
If you care about your health, cognitive function, and level of consciousness you must eliminate all sources of heavy metals from your diet and lifestyle.
Dried spices are one such source that you may be overlooking.
Recent studies suggest that dried spices can contain high amounts of lead, arsenic, and cadmium. This tends to be the case regardless of brand name or whether the spices are "organic".
Read the full article here and avoid using the most contaminated spices: oregano and thyme.
There is no safe level of lead, arsenic, or mercury for your brain. Every bit lowers cognitive performance and consciousness.

The trap of human life boils down to this:
In life there are things which feel good but are very bad for you. And there are things which feel bad but are very good for you.
The trick to a great life is to always be keenly aware of this trap and to proactively and counter-intuitively act against it.
Wisdom is doing that which feels bad but is very good for you. Foolishness is doing that which feels good but is very bad for you.
Contemplate how many times you've fallen into this trap.
The good life is so counter-intuitive it's hiding from you in plain sight. Having the good life is not just a matter of working hard or achieving more, it's about seeing reality in a different way. It's fundamentally a problem of perception. Which is why the wise highly value right perception and fools do not.
It's hard for the non-wealthy to fathom how it could be that the ultra-wealthy are just as miserable, if not even more miserable, than average people.
That's because true happiness in life comes from love and selfless. The reason life purpose makes you happy is because it's supposed to an act of love and selfless. To have a life purpose is to devote your life in the service of others, showering the world with your love. If you don't have that, no amount of money will fulfill you.
So what's really being missed is a spiritual connection to life. Spirituality is just the cultivation of your love and selflessness.
And this is the fundamental problem with capitalism. Capitalism creates a relentless pressure to chase after more wealth and material success at the cost of spiritual connection. Most material resources are funneled to the top 10% or 1%, while everyone else is left in wage slavery. In such a system the ultra-wealthy are too busy hoarding resources to develop a spiritual connection while the non-wealthy are too busy working for crumbs to develop a spiritual connection. And so neither the top nor the bottom of society has any spiritual depth, with both ending up miserable. It's a lose-lose dynamic.
