Integrating with my soul is the prerequisite to my life's mission: to help you do the same. I can't teach this holistically until I am sufficiently along the journey first.
Some themes I'm exploring:
- technology's role in this pursuit
- developing precision awareness of

spot on, i realized this recently. i now notice contracted traps 10-15x daily and consciously relax. also feel a tightness in my throat simultaneously

It's because these are the only moments in the day we let our minds wander. The rest of the time we're too preoccupied with 'life stuff' to listen inward. These are also the moments we're not on our screens - that's another factor

to move through pain is to embrace every emotion fully and honestly.
during the lows:
1. identify the emotion (use an emotion wheel if you haven't yet developed this skill)

Spirituality provides a framework that encourages agency and stepping into one's power.
Where a lot of modern wisdom is "do x and you'll get y", spirituality non-prescriptively says "do x, understand, and make this life yours." it's appealing to those who've only ever followed

I want a love that transcends common wisdom; a love that doesn't make sense; that defies logic. The kind that exists on the border of delusion but has a felt-ness that's so right that all the world's rationalizations can't touch its purity.

And as a man, if you recognize you can't give your woman the security, reassurance, and unrequited love she needs, have the courage to walk away.
Doesn't matter how much you admire her.
Doesn't matter how spiritual your bond feels.
Let her go - and without guilt. Be selfless

another thought on meditating: sharing *anything* about meditative experiences publicly dulls its magic at least somewhat. the ego is the ego, so notice how your body responds with what you share and make tweaks to find your personal balance

you're meant to integrate with your gifts. to feel undeserving is to deny yourself and the world. by believing you're being "humble" downplaying your advantages, you're engorging your ego to no one's benefit. it's an act of selfishness. you'll feel the fakeness energetically

Anxiety is an overprotective dog. It's loyal to you and exists to protect you from danger. It's a mental allergy, an overactive cerebral immune system.
Your anxiety is not you. It exists separately, living in a perpetual state of duty. Watching out for you.
Give it a hug.
