I read an interesting post on a blog called ApproachAnxiety.com about a guy from New York City complaining that he hasn’t had a date in sixth months and that he is in a dry spell .

He wrote:

And they were everywhere around me. Just out of reach. Beautiful women.
I lived in New York City. Downtown. You couldn’t walk a block without seeing an attractive woman. I would look at the guys they were with and wonder what they had that I didn’t have.
Looks? Money? Style? Somehow I suspected they were just running in social circles I wasn’t. I had friends, but somehow I was never very good at just hanging out and socializing.

I was reading a story about Iraq veterans suffering from PTSD (Post Traumatic Syndrome Disorder), according to stats 1 in 8 returning soldiers suffers from PTSD less than half seek help.

Below is the story of Michael Goss: (more…)

Yesterday, I was listening to the interview of Andreas Niedrig a world-class triathlete , winner of the Ironman and many other competitions, he is also the author of a book called ” Vom Junkie zum Ironman” (from Junkie to Ironman), before he was the champion he is now, he was into heroin, he decided to change path when he hit the bottom, in the interview he said that sport give him sensation that drugs doesn’t give him.

There are many reasons why people can turn to drugs, that can be escaping reality, need for self-destruction , hiding pains , may be, they are other reasons. A couple of years ago, I had a friend and he went to a rave festival and there he took something , the next thing we knew, he was sent several months in hospital, the man completely fried his brain with the drug he took in that party, his brain didn’t support it, after a couple of months, he was released from hospital. I saw him ,oh man, he was like a zombie, I mean a real zombie, he was smelling all the drugs his doctor prescribed to him, he had empty and lifeless eyes, he was scary. We don’t know what he took there, but it sure damaged his brain for life.
I also knew a girl that took some chemical supplement to ‘enhance’ her experience, she told me that she could perceive ‘life’ with more intense colors under the influence of that drug.
Another girl I knew took chemical supplement, she fell down and woke up several hours later in a hospital bed.

What recreational drugs (MDMA, LSD,GHB….) users don’t seem to understand, It’s that what they perceive as ‘the trip’ is actually the destruction of their brain cells. (more…)

There is an interesting post on the Kostya blog about rave people giving up on LSD drugs and switching to sending out love from what I read they are doing fine.
One of the guy define himself as a sun radiating with love.

They made the switch after they read Living on love:The messenger by Klaus Joehle.

Disc 1 - Disc 2
Disc 3
The disc starts by a comment from Gary Craig asking us if we have studied the manual and part 1 of the course and especially the audio tapes which according to him are very important.
He also talk about the movie technique which consist to visualise a story until you reach the point in that story where you have the pain, then you can start tapping. He also encourages us to write down our issues and to tap as we watch the DVD sessions according to him it provides great benefits. (more…)
