Glad it was helpful!

Yes, I have. I did a 10-day silent retreat several years ago and would like to do another one soon. Have you tried it? Thanks for subscribing and checking out the video! :)

@@StumblingTowardsEnlightenment incredible, isnt it! i completed my first one a month ago - your content seemed aligned with recent teachings i came across there - great tips - have started my 3 page flow writing practice again thanks to your advice - have a great day!

Thank you very much! 3 page flow writing? Is that like the Artist's Way's Morning Pages?

There have been some cool cats on those keys for sure! 😉

You are under no obligation to watch my videos.

Ha thanks for noticing! It could be the thumbnail or that I just put more thought and focus into what I was going to say.

Thank you for your support! 🙏

Thanks for watching!

Absolutely!

Thank you! Glad you got something out of it. And ya, the recap is key :)

We are powerful beyond belief. It's how we use our minds that count!

I think it may be your gadget but also this is an early video and my sound quality is not the greatest!

You are right. It wasy computer. Things are clear on the phone​@@StumblingTowardsEnlightenment

When we change our thoughts and feelings, our bodies follow suit. Focusing on pain keeps the pain in place. Imagining a situation where you are free of the pain creates those feelings within us. It's what we choose to focus on that matters most. The problem is, we are conditioned to focus on the negative, and so that keeps the negative in place. The challenge is to cultivate positive points of focus and to continue to focus on the ideal picture of yourself versus the image of yourself that is in struggle.

Bottom line is change takes time it's a practice and a journey so don't expect anything to happen immediately

Essentially, you want to write affirmations that resonate with you, so prioritize that. Many people write them in the present tense, from a place of 'I am' this or 'I have' this. You want to reaffirm these affirmations as true right now. Also, avoid negative words or language as the subconscious mind isn't good at differentiating negation. For example, "I am not stupid". The subconscious doesn't do a good job of detecting the word 'NOT', so you might end up telling yourself the opposite of what you want! Instead, reframe it to something like 'I am smart'. Hope that helps!

It does! Thank you so much!

Bro, thank you! Super thankful you're enjoying it. I'll make that video soon! Cheers 🍻

Yes, it's true. Expanding our mind and what we think about. I am also learning that enhancing our visualizations with more details and going over the scene multiple times is really powerful, so experiment with that also if you feel so inclined :)

Ok Computer

@@StumblingTowardsEnlightenment I am not really a Radiohead fan, ahaha.

What kind of music do you like?

😄 I'll take it.

Awesome! Getting clearer on yourself and what you're doing is so key. 🙏

Cool! I'm curious, how did these comrades help you break out of it?

Yes, I'm also curious how your comrades helped you.

Glad you got something from it!
