Ive been addicted to watching youtube since i was a young child. Im 20 now and im starting to become more aware of the effect, this dullness that it has on my mind. I went a week without my phone and it help me feel waaaay more at peace, but the KZbin addiction is so hard to control. I am trusting that God will free me from this eventually. I have 100 percent faith that it will happen eventually, and i will cooperate with this process

Thank you, Yash. The last thing you said really resonated with me. Recently, I quit smoking herb for the third time in my life, but this time it feels different. Previously, I was very conscious about it-I started a calendar, I told everyone I quit, like I was trying to prove to myself that I beat it. Not really though, as soon as struggle came back into my life, so did the herb. But this time, it's like something clicked. There was a lesson I had to learn about myself through the addiction coming back each time for me to beat it and finally understand why I was reaching for it in the first place. Have patience and trust yourself and the universe, and all shall come.

I recently discovered I was addicted to the chaos that comes with indecision. I had fear around making “wrong” choices, when I began to trust my inner guidance and surrender to the flow of god i was able to feel the shifts and “make choices” (just flow) in trust. But I was shown that every time I was flowing in deep trust with bigger moves, something would come into my life to test it. An offer to a new apartment, a new friend, a new idea etc… some sparkly thing would appear. I would waver in my mind initially and think “why does this always happen!?” Eventually I finally saw it, then I laughed! 💛

[@Blockwise2]

Just today I noticed that, after I didn’t smoke any cigarettes for 7 hours, the mind was creating future experiences about smoking a cigarette, there were images about how I would enjoy a cigarette with a beer or while watching something on youtube and so on. In that moment everything was fine. I was cooking something and there was no urgency to smoke, however the mind kept generating ideas about how nice a smoke would be. Eventually I smoked, and of course it is nothing like the mind imagined, not great, not terrible, just another experience, just the eternal moment manifested as these objects. Just wanted to share, I still smoke and drink, but I see more aspects of the mind lately

[@imageword5576]

13:40 I think this is an important point that could be expanded. The balance of taking accountability for your own bad actions while also not beating yourself up for them. It's like raising a child that you love. It's easy to see how it doesn't make sense to berate and insult a baby for crying, yet it's harder to see the same thing when it comes to ourselves. Sort of like what "tough love" means.

After recently separating from my wife of 18 years, I've had a week of diving into all my old addictive patterns - phone, smoking, alcohol, gambling. They have all been effective at keeping me distracted from my pain. But I know I need to intervene now to prevent a progressive decline with increased dependency. To trust in the grief process means allowing these crutches to fall away. It's really hard but I love what you said about choosing just one in the interim. That seems a realistic strategy at the moment. Thank you for this video, it came at just the right time.

[@ArtakV1]

Definitely easier to get rid of other addictions once you start retaining and stop PMO.

[@santiago1983ism]

I loved the advice about using tobacco. That's what I'm doing. It's been a while since I've been drinking alcohol, coffee, eating junk food, using Instagram and dating apps, or PMO... I had also stopped smoking for a few days, but I thought it would be a good idea to smoke tobacco as an "escape valve", so I chose to smoke "natural tobacco", rolled by hand. Of the various addictions we have, in my opinion, tobacco is the least harmful. (Ironic that "society", the "main-stream", condemns tobacco as the WORST habit, and says nothing or little about alcohol, pornography, internet addiction, etc.!)

[@brithozierhozier4718]

I'm an ex smoker, but I now enjoy hape the shamic snuff I feel it's more healthly and grounding it's a form of tobacco and really helps with grounding in my opinion! Being short of breath due to smoking can't be good

Im right where i am supposed to be.

[@NewDaySon37]

Quick tip: When in the right mindstate sometimes quitting the drug can be transmuted to hot fire energy that is waaaaaay overwhelming. I had people assuming I was bipolar. But thats just life energy flowing. When non-conscious/spirit and trying to quit a drug…it was soooo hard being focused on the physical But being spiritual, my past was telling me it would be sooo hard. But upon quitting, i loosened up some spiritual virility that had been being suppressed…and that gave me better energy and mood than drugs. I just wanted to say dont even judge what quitting something might be like based on past. Because once you work and start to get that burning bush in that deserted land lit with the fiery flames of glory, you will be raised unto the promised land and the actual SPIRIT WILL provide and thank you for quitting, supporting you in the process.

As a creator it is a huge driver for audience, also I love cutting them, it is a lot of fun and Im in the flow when cutting a dozen shorts. But... from a consumer perspective it is like you said, training the monkey brain in ADHD. Then again.. a few shorts are great and I keep coming back to those.

When meditating on 'I am,' my focus often shifts inward, and I experience a profound sense of presence within my body, bringing a feeling of peace. However, there are moments when 'I am' transforms into 'I spaciousness.' In this state, the profound peace I feel transcends the confines of my physical form. It's an experience where I lose myself, feeling utterly complete. I'm curious about the distinction between the 'I amness' and 'I spaciousness' - what sets them apart in this meditative journey? I would love to hear your thoughts, Yosh.
