An Operating Manual for Your Mind

[@tsmolevitz8636]

This is spot on. I made the conscious decision to change from a very negative base and bring true peace and joy into my life. I found that it not only influences myself but others as well. I cannot tell you how many people who are upset or distraught will call or visit to speak with me. I offer them a different perspective and a calming influence. Each and every time this interaction happens there is the same result. The person will tell me that, whereas they were in a state of fear/anger/discontent/etc they now feel perfectly calm and able to continue on. Each time that happens it humbles me more and more. What a power! And in this process the beauty of this world magnifies and expands more and more. The world is so desperate for more of this and less of the fear/anxiety/negativity that is so readily poured out.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Your experience is so important for us to here, Theresia. Not only did you transform things in your own life, but you've seen, first-hand, how the changes you make in yourself can affect those around you. Well done, and thank you for sharing! =) Kenton

[@scottreece6116]

These videos are why I like your channel. While I feel we are in different spectrums on some things, I really respect you doing your own thing and not trying to be like all the other preperadness channels. I also appreciate your positive attitude. We could use more people with your mindset in this world.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Thanks Scott -- I appreciate hearing that from you, especially since you feel we are in different spectrums on some things. It's always encouraging to me when people can come together and see their similarities! =) Kenton

[@miracleshappen4483]

Thank you! The visual explanation with the golden color and the red, awakened me instantly because I can feel what you mean. God bless you, your family and all those who may cross your path! 🙏😇💖

[@soccer2themax]

I wondered just yesterday how many people go through an entire day and never smile or laugh. Great video to help these types of people and us all. Thank you!

[@ReWildUniversity]

Hi Paul! I'm one of those hopelessly idealistic types who, if I could, would bring smiles to every human being on the planet. So it means a lot to hear that this video is helping. =) Kenton

[@zesty6137]

you have made me make huge changes in my life. I have been takeing cold showers and I have been doing a bunch of other things that have made my life so much better. thank you

[@ReWildUniversity]

That means so much to hear. Thank you! In appreciation, Kenton

[@aHigherPower]

Excellent topic, thanks for sharing Kenton.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Absolutely my friend! =) Kenton

[@flyifri]

Defiantly food for the soul and a lot to digest. Thank you for a very tasty update.. Much appreciated. Niagara

[@ReWildUniversity]

Absolutely, Niagara! =) Kenton

[@JTMinnesota]

Thank you for taking the time, putting in the work, and embracing the idea of sharing the concept of awareness/mindscape with us. The mental mileage you've logged is clearly evident; you did a lot of the heavy lifting so the rest of us could learn in an easily digestible way. Thank you, Kenton.

[@ReWildUniversity]

My friend, thank you. Your encouraging words inspire me every time I see one of your comments! =) Kenton

[@caseykreie1839]

Brilliant perspective, thanks for sharing. You should really write a book!

[@ReWildUniversity]

Thanks for that encouragement, Casey! One is actually in the works =) Roots, Kenton

[@caseykreie1839]

Could you let me know when the book is up for purchase?

[@ReWildUniversity]

I will announce it with a video! =) Kenton

[@johanneshimstedt1361]

It is always a pleasure to watch your videos. I have seen the TED talk by Dandapani some weeks ago and it stuck with me since then. Focus helps me with every aspect of life. It helps me find meaning and joy in my everyday activities. I also noticed that I stopped worrying while doing other things (like thinking about the unpleasant obligation in the evening while reading in the morning). Focus brings order into consciousness. Disorder in consciousness makes unhappy and stressed.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Absolutely. That really was a great talk he did, wasn't it? I hope it touches many people. =) Kenton

[@apples95]

I've lived most of my life sitting in front of a screen pressing buttons. It is because of this that I don't have many experiences to learn from or to share with others. In 2014 I found a book called be here now which changed my whole perspective on life as well as introducing to meditation. Ever since than I haven't been consistent with my practices and have since gone back to a gamer lifestyle which has destroyed me socially, psychologically, physically, and spiritually. Even when I stopped playing it would call me back like a drug. Video games have been such a big part of my life that it has taken time to let it pass. I've had a lot of ups and downs these past two years. Only now have I come to realize, that it's not the past that defines who you are, but rather we have to focus on what can we do right here now for the benefit of all life. Namaste

[@ReWildUniversity]

This is so beautifully said, my friend. And because you have been in that place, feeling the "drug-like" pull of the games, and have been finding your way free, you are that much more able to help others to break free as well. Namaste! Kenton

[@Soundvermont]

Love the colorscape you used and love the glow. Iv'e been working on being more focused and grateful. Some tools I use are a dollar store journal to write six things every morning that I'm grateful for and it amazes me now how much I missed by not doing this small practice. I also am training and catching myself to be more loving and accepting but still learning to have healthy boundaries which I think is important to. All and all it has relieved me of a lot of stress and worry and I'm so enjoying it along with being a bit more playful and silly. And every morning I am doing the GLOW. Thank you for all you do for me and the collective.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Robin, so wonderful to hear you are doing that gratitude practice! It really shifts things, doesn't it? And that you're feeling more playful and silly is awesome! =) Kenton

[@Soundvermont]

I always would like to be more silly it's just a matter of not caring what the outside world thinks!

[@jimmyeatonbackyardcamping7226]

thank you dude peace be with you

[@ReWildUniversity]

=)

[@cloverleafWI]

Well described Kenton! I've been doing meditation with the boys with Liz and it's hard to describe why we do it and how we know we're doing it right. I like the idea of our mindscape and being able to detect flavor. I think the boys will be able to grasp these ideas so I'm adding this link to our homeschool viewing. Now I just need to grapple with how this perspective does or doesn't coexist with ideas of peer counseling- where we work through old hurts with attention and space for discharge. Thank you!

[@ReWildUniversity]

I'm so glad this could make sense and that you're going to include it in the homeschooling! Wow! And I'd love to hear your thoughts about how this meshes with peer counseling paradigms! =) Kenton

[@darongw]

Thank you for this video! I'm trying to do meditation on a daily basis and I'm also planning on writing what I'm grateful for in a journal each day to help build a positive mindset. I have struggled with staying positive in the past so this won't be easy but I think it is a necessary step. Thanks again for the video!

[@ReWildUniversity]

Daron, I can promise that if you keep this up, it will make tremendous shifts in your positivity. Way to go with taking the initiative! =) Kenton

[@65616larry]

Some day i hope to meet you just to shake your hand. everyday i walk about six miles outdoors and to me its a meditation to connect with nature, Has a big calming effect on the rest of my day, Your suggestions are spot on will have to incorporate them into my daily practice. Namaste Kenton

[@ReWildUniversity]

Larz, that means a lot! I love thinking of you walking each day, just Being outside. Something all of us could probably benefit from! =) Kenton

[@TheSlenderMonkey]

I really like how you made this a more visual explanation; definitely one of the most direct and helpful (for me at least) videos I've seen on this topic! Keep it up Kenton :)

[@ReWildUniversity]

Thanks for letting me know this worked for you! =) Kenton

[@sainthuckelberry]

Love it. There is something about nature and mindfulness that binds them together, I think. Nothing wild was ever without purpose. Inspiring work, friend!

[@ReWildUniversity]

Thanks Paul! =) Kenton

[@christopherellis2663]

In 1976 I quit smoking by turning a yes habit into a no habit. This took me eighteen months. Habit is formed by choice, character is the quality of those choices. Reaction should always be replaced with a response, even if it is to do nothing.

[@WannabeBushcrafter]

Great job, Kenton. This video was pretty profound for me.

[@ReWildUniversity]

I'm so glad it made sense for you! =) Kenton

[@stefm8251]

Nice , clear explanation of neuroplasticity where we can rewire our brain and train it to respond like we want to. Sometimes I see human brain like a super computer with a kind of msdos obsolete software without user manual !! Keeping in a part of my mind words, feeling and emotions like love , compassion , patience ,smile .... And reviewing them often in my mind during the day , just thinking about those emotions not always in correlation with memories but just the words and their meaning helped me when I have to face angry clients ,it help to calm the customers just showing him empathy , attention and usually it "desarm" the situation. Not always easy to do every time but worth to try. If I receive in the morning a phone call from a customer really disrespectful, aggressive when I listen him attentivly in the same time I repeat in my mind those words and think about his words like rain dropping along my skin like a shower that don't arm me in any way so I remain calm . like a small meditation during a conversation. Is that make sense ? At least it works on me most of the time when I think to apply it, sometimes I forgot and the conversation can upset me, more difficult to deal with .Thanks Kenton for your explanation have a nice day

[@ReWildUniversity]

Stef, I LOVE the way you are using your work as an opportunity to not only spread more compassion and understanding, but for you to continue your self-growth as well. I wish we could all follow your example! As you say, it's not easy, but it's worth the effort. And I had to laugh when you described the human brain like a "super computer with MSDOS obsolete softwear without a user manual." How apt sometimes!!! =) Kenton

[@krm83000]

I've just found out about your channel thanks to Canadian Prepper, and with this single, seemingly simple video as a frame of reference, I can already say it's hopefully gonna change my life in a meaningful way. It probably sounds like overreacting, but at this time it's very much my genuine, heartfelt reaction as I'm still processing what it really means, that such a simple understanding could be so decisive and reshape the very way I perceive the world around me, everyone and everything in it. I shall take your teachings into consideration from now on, and perhaps it will even make me a better person =) Thank you so very much !

[@TechTins_Projects]

Brilliant! just what I needed today. I think everyone will relate to this. So true. I had a bad day all day because of one bad phone call this morning. Which was daft but, it ruined the day. I could have changed that if I had used such an approach as this. This is one of the best videos I have watched of yours. And they are all very good. This reminds me so much of muscle memory. For example when you drive you don't think how to change gears and push your foot on clutch as it is all wrapped up in muscle memory. Same when you play a musical instrument, for example the piano, your fingers remember the scales eventually purely through muscle memory. It become automatic. The mind is what molds those processes and your grooves are the same as muscle memory described by musicians. It must be why some people seem so angry, as it has become their way burned into muscle memory (aka your grooves). You made this so clear. Brilliant presentation.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Glad this made sense! You've cited a perfect, real-life example -- that one experience can color (or flavor) everything after. Thanks for sharing my friend! =) Kenton

[@attilaelekes5534]

thanks, good video

[@GarryBurgess]

very exciting and interesting video. I've paused it so that I can sit back and think about what you've said thus far and think about it further before I continue, looking at the minds cape idea.

[@ReWildUniversity]

So glad this made "sense" my friend! =) Kenton

[@jeffcooper9363]

"Ninjas of Distraction" that's truly funny. I've at least paid physically for the dark thoughts I've harbored over the years, not to mention the draining of mental and spiritual energy. Freeways to dead ends, or paths to glory. My walk with Christ has allowed me to see me for who I really am,( whew!)and He has given me strength and hope to choose, more and more , the Way of Life. Nurturing a deep sense of gratitude for His love and care has really helped in breaking bonds. May God bless you Kenton

[@ReWildUniversity]

Jeff, I'm so heartened to hear that you found a path that helped you out of those dark places. Freed of all that energy-drain, you can now give so much more to those around you. Blessings in return! Kenton

[@robc2536]

I'm glad I found this video. With all the political turmoil, both here in the US and around the world, I have found myself becoming more negative. We are deluged on a daily basis with so much hatred and negativity, that I find it hard to even watch or read the news. I would love to hear what you would envision (that you mentioned in your reply to " semih oguzcan") as I believe we may be on the same page. I am trying to be more positive in my thinking, but it's not always easy. Thanks for the video and it's great message.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Rob, I've been scanning through the comments to try to find what I wrote to semih oguzcan, but can't find it. Would you elaborate a little? I can understand the feeling -- the world events, as especially as presented by our media, can really instill negativity. Thanks for making an attempt to stay positive through all this! =) Kenton

[@robc2536]

Kenton, This was the comment I was referring to. I completely understand that you don't want to go into it here. I don't know if there's a way to PM or email through youtube, but it would be interesting to hear your thoughts. Thanks for the great videos. Rob semih oguzcan 8 months ago It is all good information, but what do you suggest about Trump Kenton? :D ReWildUniversity 8 months ago Ha! Fun question! Well, as you might imagine I'm not a big fan of our current governmental structure, and would envision something quite different (it wouldn't fit into any readily described box, and I won't go into it here),

[@jayontario7285]

Wow!....I find multi-tasking such a lack of perfection and enjoyment. I do find the journey is just as or even more important than the destination...

[@ReWildUniversity]

Such an important realization, Jay. The journey is IT! =) Kenton

[@jayontario7285]

On a side note-> I find that we artificially try to get away from the earth (elements of God in a sense) by building this vast technology, while the whole goal to is to be like god in a sense

[@lightweightprepperuk9027]

Great vid thanks

[@ReWildUniversity]

You bet my friend! =) Kenton

[@GREENTERROR2112]

I like your videos, the importance of the power and control over the mind show in your videos, this is what brought me to your channel. I agree with what you conveyed in this video. This video seems like (is) basic 101 stuff, but it is so important, it's the necessary foundation that a stable life must be built on. The mind is a habit, building grooves to positive thoughts and actions, leads to a much happier and peaceful life, a life with much less regret.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Glad you like them! This is indeed 101 stuff -- and I wish we taught it as part of our basic education! It's amazing to me that we get little or no education in how our minds work, and how to respond rather than react, etc. =) Kenton

[@0fficer47]

"We all make choices, its our choices that make us" -Andrew Ryan (Bioshock) Thanks Kenton for the video. Have a very Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and your family! :)

[@craigwilson2362]

You are so awesome dude! So much valuable info in this vid and somehow you delivered it in a simple and very understandable Way... blessings!

[@ReWildUniversity]

Thank you Craig! =) Kenton

[@StyNorth]

Great concepts Kenton! I can't help but see this approach as a "Repair Manual for Your Mind" then having it evolve into an "Operating Manual for Your Mind". It is so true that we have allowed our cultures to mold our minds to the point where chaos and confusion has become the norm, and it's time for us to take that control back for our own peace and well being! Loved it my friend! ATB Sty

[@ReWildUniversity]

Absolutely, my dear friend. I couldn't agree more. With love! Kenton

[@KINGWAPA]

Hey Kenton, you are such an amazing person. thanks for sharing this! You really helped me to get into a positive and even really happy state of living. it extended to such a degree that it even effects the people around me as well. thanks for that! Some times it is rather hard to keep being positive for some reason. I guess I just have to keep practising and being more aware of my own thoughts. best wishes and love from the Netherlands!!! Walter

[@ReWildUniversity]

Walter, this is awesome! Indeed, the practice will pay off with that positivity becoming more and more "solid" in our minds, though it's always good to remember that we are organic, messy beings who will sometimes have emotions that go this way and that. Yet if we can come back to that positive awareness . . . And I LOVE that you're seeing your attitude blossom out and affect those around you. That's how we change the world! =) Kenton

[@Seignil]

Whil watching this i noticed that i already wander around my mind/mindscape but never did it like you described ... i'll try to do this now .... it will be very interesting. And furthermore the foctus thing ....damn that is hard if you are tired.

[@ReWildUniversity]

It can indeed be tough! I'm excited that you're going to try it. Let me know what you experience! =) Kenton

[@buffplums]

Thank you for another excellent message. I love the calmness and energy that you project, clearly someone who has developed himself through a lot of work and experience. What you are saying concurs with what I am hearing from many other places on my journey out of depression and anxiety. Everything you are saying rings so true and hearing you explain the process with clear examples is helping me to focus and understand my use of mindfulness and meditation. I'm currently learning to meditate with a guy called Andy Puddicombe through his headspace software application. But you my friend are another piece in the jigsaw of my rehabilitation as you shine light on many of the questions that are coming into my mind. Thank goodness for people like yourself, you are a true inspiration my friend. Bless you in what you do and the great forces of goodness in the universe be with you and nourish your soul.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Thank you for those heart-felt blessings, Chris. I've heard of the headspace software! Have you found it to be fruitful? I'd like to learn more so I can share people's experiences when I'm asked about it. Kudos for finding your way out of depression and anxiety. It's not an easy journey, but I can hear the strength in your writing -- you are finding your way, and will be better able to help others since you've "been there". In gratitude, Kenton

[@buffplums]

ReWildUniversity hi Kenton, You are very welcome, I follow quite a few people on KZbin who talk about their lives and experiences and find it very helpful and quite often you hear someone's experience and it consolidates what you have heard elsewhere and then gives you the faith to believe that you are progressing. I have Ben caught up with a bit of negativity, have posted some negative stuff more as a reaction to frustration from some who have channels on KZbin. I won't mention any names but one guy use the expression 'you have s&&t pyschology ' if you are depressed. He claims a lot of stuff and clearly I don't think he really understands, ok some stuff he says is true but anyway....don't want to focus on the bad, suffice to say I am learning that it's no good to harbour bad feeling and just got to let it go. Anyway the headspace, yes that has been very good I'm only at day 29 of it but I'm looking at accessing the next guided meditations that Andy Puddicombe provides. I want to tackle issues of self control in terms of getting my body into shape, controlling compulsive eating habits etc and also finding sources of inspiration. I love outdoors things like walking, camping, woods, mountains but in recent years the shine has come off and I am trying to restore the live I had for the outdoor life again and I know I am on the road to recover. Anyway thanks again for your inspiration man, love your love for life. Keep on keeping on buddy! Chris

[@ReWildUniversity]

I know the feeling -- it doesn't do much good to tell us that we're just messed up if we're having mental/emotional challenges. The truth is, most people ARE having challenges, even if they claim to be teachers or to have their act together, so to speak. So I find that the best route is for us all to have compassion and help each other find new ways to approach life. It sounds like you're being very proactive, and that's inspiring. Keep at it, and thanks for your kind words!

[@McLarenIT1]

Impressively informative. It's quite amazing how easy it can be to switch one's awareness from one complex depressing thought into something far more simple and pleasant. And I totally agree that a single thought can subconsciously 'color' your mood for the rest of your day. This reminds me of an old saying stating that the first face you see in your day shall determine your luck for the rest of that day. Now that I'm thinking of this it's actually making more sense. For if the first person you meet in your day places your mind in a positive state it'll boost your energy & creativity for the rest of that day which in turn shall bring you good fortune. I have been following up with your videos for quite some time and I thank you for the difference you are making not only for me but also for those who I have suggested your content to. Your teachings are definitely inspiring. Even the ideas that I already know are blooming upon hearing your impressions of them. Thank you sir.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Ryan, thank you for these kind words. I love that old saying you brought up. How apt! If we can set our day in a positive way, it does indeed have a powerful effect on everything that follows. Thanks for sharing your wisdom and for your wonderful compliments! =) Kenton

[@justintrimpey4180]

[@ReWildUniversity]

Appreciated, Justin! =) Kenton

[@tfjzz]

it is very important and wonderful that ideas like these get spread and people become more aware and get a chance to improve..thank you so much for spending your time doing these videos..i think you are doing something great..btw been practicing your GLOW meditation since a saw the video and it really does make a diference..i think i did something similar also before but not on such a concious level...again greetings from slovakia, wish you all the best with future videos!

[@ReWildUniversity]

I'm glad you're enjoying the GLOW! It's a morning ritual for me, and I too think it makes a tremendous difference in how my day unfolds. Greetings back from Wisconsin, USA! =) Kenton

[@douglastalkington]

I agree that focusing on one thing at a time is important, because in addition to controlling your own mind, it develops skills more quickly than bouncing from thought to thought to thought. Read a book about the research behind myolin. Myolin is the brain tissue that builds skills.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Doug, thanks for this tip -- I'm always trying to learn more, and you can be sure I'll be checking out myolin! =) Kenton

[@douglastalkington]

Yeah - I meant "I read" not "read" as in telling you what to do. :-). My bad I reread the comment. Thanks for responding. Ntmy

[@TrollDragomir]

Wow! This, to me at least is a very profound way to describe the interaction between our left brain (awareness), and our right brain (mindscape). While the comparison here is not exact (judgements can be both left - logical and right - emotional), but we can use the logical part of our brain to influence the emotional part, and vice versa. I do it all the time, but it requires some courage at first - not everyone is ready to really delve into their subconscious - it can be pretty scary when it's all covered with dark red scribbles ;) I would expand this a bit too. I think there are more lenses than just negative and positive. They can have all sorts of colours, because these lenses are emotions. We can attach an emotional charge to thoughts, judgements and memories. Actually, we do that quite automatically as soon as a thought, judgement or a memory forms. What we can use awareness for is shifting this charge to have it influence us in a positive way. There's one danger though - there's nothing wrong in trying to assign good emotions to a negative memory, but it can lead to repressing, and that's not beneficial at all. I think we shouldn't hold back to live through all of our emotions. When something makes me angry - I let it vent out a bit, and THEN I shift it to something positive. Same with sadness, sometimes you just can't help it, and I don't think you should. I always liked to describe it as letting myself sink to the bottom, so that I have a surface to spring back up from. Perhaps at great levels of awareness and mindfulness you can shift those with no harm before the emotional charge hits you, but I don't think I'm there yet.

[@ReWildUniversity]

I always love your reminders, my friend, that it's okay to feel emotions -- beneficial even! And you're absolutely correct -- the "lenses" are really our emotions -- I was unsure whether to use "flavors" or "emotions", but you've seen what I was getting at. I've always though of our emotions as essentially the "spices" we put on our experiences. =) Kenton

[@seanantill3366]

this is o soooooooooooo very true! yeah there's some good videos on the tedx channel

[@ReWildUniversity]

There sure are =) Roots, Kenton

[@ronbrown8611]

I play a free online video for the heart of the game. it was made by fans for the fans halo spv3 it has great soothing music and includes first person shooting.

[@ancientdarkness3102]

what can i do to train every day? where should i put my attention to?

[@ReWildUniversity]

I would start with awareness training. Its the foundation of everything else. Outward awareness, such as you'd find spoken of in "The Lost Art of Reading Nature's Signs" by Tristan Gooley. And inner awareness, such as you'd find various of my videos talking about on both my channels. =) Kenton

[@Dekjo00]

Great video, although I would prefer calling it directional lines, not a "manual" :) Also I think that anyone who watches this video should also check out the " Benefits of Boredom" video. These two are mutually linked.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Thanks for that great thought, Dekjo, and for recommending the "Benefits of Boredom" video. I'll link to it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXjPaINnZ9mqf9k =) Kenton

[@kuchumovn]

Greetings from Mother Russia. I like your channel, and the little amount of views has an advantage that your connection with your viewers is more intimate and is more personal (as opposed to being mass production). Positive thinking is indeed very fruitful and beneficial, and I have been practicing it for several years now with tremendous results. I can see the lack of positive thinking in the people around but there's not much one can do about it: you can take a horse to a river but you can't force it to quench its thirst. Speaking of you, I think you've got a "channel". Not youtube one but rather a channel with the Higher Forces who pipe the wise thoughts through you. You may think of yourself as a medium, or a prophet. Some people also have "verbal channels" and I bet you've watched myriads of "channeling" sessions before. "They" (the powers that be) teach that the ultimate goal of the whole thing is advancement and not just of yourself but the whole humanity through each and every individual. And not just humanity but the entire Universe through each and every life form. Anyway, just posted it to let you know I liked your videos very much.

[@ReWildUniversity]

Greetings back from Wisconsin, USA! In the area where I just moved, we have a lot of Russian immigrants, so I get to hear your language and get tastes of your culture every day! I agree -- I hope my channel always stays of a modest size, because I LOVE this intimate connection. And so interesting about the "channeling". It's so interesting you say that, because often when I make a video I don't really make a video -- I just wait for an idea, then let it "percolate" for a few days. Then I'll sit in front of the camera and just talk. Usually it comes out better than if I would have tried to plan it. This happens with public speaking, too. I used to have an outline and notes, but that always got me confused. Now I don't even think much about what I'm going to talk about. I just go and talk. I haven't really thought of it as channeling before, but it's something to consider! Thanks for your thoughtful comment! =) Kenton

[@kuchumovn]

You're welcome : ) Yeah, I have a similar thing too, some things just come natural for me. As long as we manage to utilize those powers for the cause we are given more (as being capable apprentices). Nice to see how you successfully utilize yours to transform the world around you for the better. Cheers.

[@AnniePik]

Hi! Thank you for this video! Really loved the ideas and simple truth=) I wanted to ask you a question,if I may/. I'm pregnant(7weaks). I wonder do you have experience with pregnancy and conditioning to cold? I'm a newby? and haven't been regular=( I now that it isn't ideal time,but my health is very poor right now/ And my choice is ether start antibiotics or try this method that I found. It's could - Physical Shield to a decease/ by Tolkachev. But I'm frighten though, so I wanted to find out your opinion. Thank you so much!

[@ReWildUniversity]

Hi Annie! First, congratulations! I this your first child? My wife Rebecca did some cold conditioning during her pregnancy, but not a lot, so I don't have much to go on here. Doctors and health practitioners in general tend to be very cautious around pregnancy -- not only because studies haven't often been done on pregnant women, but because some pregnancies don't come to full completion, anything someone starts during pregnancy can be the thing that gets blamed if the pregnancy doesn't go well. On the flip side, I don't get excited about antibiotics during pregnancy -- we don't know the full effects on babies in the belly. Really, your most powerful tool might be your natural intuition. Try this method (I can't seem to find anything about it on Google), and see how it feels. If it feels too intense, or like it's straining your body too much, then perhaps back off or try something else. Your body will be going through a lot of transitions during pregnancy, as you surely have already experienced! There are some things that you can do that can probably help though. Shift to as clean of a diet as possible, and get daily walks and meditation. Giving your mind and body nourishment through quiet walks and some silent time can really strengthen you. Laughter is always good, which can include funny movies. And of course I always advocate a gratitude practice -- I know that for me, even though I thought I was really mentally/emotionally "in shape", children brought new challenges. I'm glad that I took the time to settle my mind before their arrival! The GLOW meditation can do wonders =) kzbin.info/www/bejne/aImVpZmfgN96d9E With love and excitement for your coming baby, Kenton

Good day to you.You couldn't find anything about this method on-line probably because it's from a book written in 1988 and it's in Russian=)(as am I, by the way) Thank you for your encouragement! I will take your advice and really listen to myself. I don't feel good about antibiotics,and really feel that Tolkachev's ideas resonate with me. If you are interested ,I can talk more about it. And this is my second baby. With the exception of this very long lasting infection everything is going great. As it was with my daughter. Thank you again for taking time on me!

It is all good information, but what do you suggest about Trump Kenton? :D

Ha! Fun question! Well, as you might imagine I'm not a big fan of our current governmental structure, and would envision something quite different (it wouldn't fit into any readily described box, and I won't go into it here), but I think that if we focus too much on things that we can't change, whether it's a president or global threats or whatever, then we use up valuable personal energy in frustration and worry. On the flip side, if we can attend to our own self-evolution, then we make ourselves happier, and we also become more effective at being able to help the people around us. That means that we make the world around us a slightly nicer place, and perhaps those we touch will spread that goodness. In this way, our energies to toward making real, positive change. And the more of us who do that, the more it spreads. All of these social institutions, after all, are only made up of humans, so if enough people change, then perhaps we will see societal change as well. I may be helplessly idealistic, but as a former pessimist, I can say that I'm a lot happier this way, and I seem to be able to change things more effectively from a positive position. =) Kenton

I think I know what you envision if I know you enough so far :) I agree all the above, and could not agree more :D

[@ReWildUniversity]

In 1976 I quit smoking by turning a yes habit into a no habit. This took me eighteen months. Habit is formed by choice, character is the quality of those choices. Reaction should always be replaced with a response, even if it is to do nothing.
