Kyle,do u have any increase in blood pressure due to post covid??How u dealed with it

[@prathamrballal1229]

Did u had pots

[@julianamoreno2846]

please check if I'm right. I have CFS. It takes a lot of effort to make even the slightest effort and it tires me out. so now I'm training my brain when I'm going to do something that I feel tired. I just identify the symptom, take breaths and repeat everything is ok or listen to relaxing music. Is this mental reprogramming?

[@luistirado88]

Kyle, i hope it's okay to ask a question that's off-topic to this video. I have been trying your approach towards recovery but I have a doubt that arises. The question is: did you ever have fast-breathing and chest pain (dysautonomia symptoms) with your cfs? And if you didn't, do you think I could still recover with your approach if i have those symptoms?

[@life.withkyle]

Yes I did and definitely you can recover with this approach That's a classic form of doubt, the mind will try to produce reasons why our situation/symptoms might be different but really the reasons don't matter we're just afraid of letting go of the doubt because it's so familiar. When you notice those thoughts allow them to be there and then maybe explore what feelings come up around these thoughts that I'm afraid to feel. Because the thought isn't a problem, the "problem" is that it triggers fear and doubt which we resist but we just need to learn to soothe and allow those parts of ourselves.

@@life.withkyle Thank you so much. And thanks for all the work you do.

[@Stuffed_chicken]

Hi Kyle, thank you for this video. I am accepting my emotions, I think, but as a result I feel exhausted from the constant intense emotions. Am I doing this wrong? Also, I have trouble identifying the thoughts - they seem to start with some sort of energy and go straight to an emotion within a split second, bypassing a verbal narrative altogether. Sometimes I try to verbalise it, but it's usually after the fact. What do I do? Also, how do I tell whether I'm distracting myself or attempting to move on with life? Sorry for so many questions and thank you again 🙏

[@life.withkyle]

I'd say its fine if you don't have much of verbal narrative, the real aim is to feel the physical emotional experience and not get caught up with the narrative. So if the physical experience takes over that's great! If there is narrative that's not a problem either but there doesn't have to be Also just watch out for the doubt thoughts and identifying with them. "am I doing this wrong" etc. It's just a thought with some flavour of doubt, allow yourself to let go of knowing how to do and just surrender to the experience of doubt in the body. What if you can't know precisely but you just have to let go and feel. So just trust your direct experience, you're doing great, don't grab onto the doubt :)

@lifewithkyle2207 thank you so much Kyle 🙏🙏🙏 it's just that the emotion work makes me so, so tired.

[@darrenboyce8585]

Hi Kyle does sitting and feeling into symptoms release them or do you have to do other things cheers mate

[@life.withkyle]

Yes that's the most important part. Giving oneself space to really feel the emotion and any resistance that comes up with it, inquiring if there's anything we don't want to feel and then just surrendering and letting it be there

[@darrenboyce8585]

@@life.withkyle cheers mate

[@Katherine-ds2ft]

This is all a bit mind bendy when the symptoms are completely debilitating 😅😢

[@life.withkyle]

Yeah I was speaking pretty directly about some disorienting stuff 😂 If the body + nervous system is debilitated I would focus on lots of self soothing and then introduce the inquiry stuff when it feels interesting

[@Atlas.Valiants]

Def not just a tap but more like a ”slap in the face” 😂 Does any symptom ever creep up to you anymore, maybe at the trip in europe or after gym? Cheers man, great video once again!

[@life.withkyle]

Haha exactly, definitely more accurate 😂 Good question, I will make a video on this soon. It's a complicated answer, the experience of things now is so different that whatever comes up it's not really troubling, most of the time no but if I push my nervous system to the limits i.e super high intensity exercise while recovering from acute infection plus not taking time to meditate and process then yes things will build up in the body. It's really just a direct correlation to resistance, if there's something I'm avoiding facing I'll get uncomfortable but there's no story of symptoms or illness at all really

[@noraa390]

I listen to Michael Singer and it's hard to grasp. We are not our thoughts, bodies . We are consciousness. Nonduality. Maybe im trying to hard to grasp it. If you can help me, that would be great.

[@life.withkyle]

I understand completely, this is where inquiry practice is really necessary because we can't grasp this intellectually but a real shift can occur through authentic direct inquiry. For me Angelo Dilullo's book has some of the best pointers for how to inquire effectively, also his inquiry playlists on the channel @SimplyAlwaysAwake has some great stuff. But it's really personal resonance thing 🤷🏼‍♂️ for me his stuff is so clear and direct Let me know if that's helpful and how you get along

​@@life.withkyledoes he have a good video on emotions?

[@darrenboyce8585]

Sorry ment to say emotions

[@jaynebailey]

My god you sound stoned

[@fwdflashwebdesign]

You should be careful about your advice because it dose not apply to everybody, some of us can have hidden infections that can't be fixed with the mind!

[@life.withkyle]

If someone has an active infection I recommend work with a medical professional, that's not the topic of this video really, I'm more talking about my experience with mental seeking and getting to the root of that to work through all resistance in life not just health related :)

[@fwdflashwebdesign]

@@life.withkyle You make it sound like is all about the mind and that you can heal anything with just the mind which is powerful but dose not apply to all things!
