doing creative work, as a spiritual practice
Priority request: writing, making art etc., with a spiritual intention.
Activities
catfishing
Request: Pretending to be someone else online, often in a romantic context... the motivation is to scam others for money however experience tells me this isn't always the case. Some catfishers get nothing but the thrill of emotional manipulation or pretending to be something they are not.
bullying
“Bullying is the use of force, coercion, hurtful teasing or threat, to abuse, aggressively dominate or intimidate. The behavior is often repeated and habitual” -- wikipedia.
photobombing
Request: to appear behind or in front of someone when their photograph is being taken, often doing something silly such as making a funny face.
cooking
Level of this activity, by request.
Nordic bath: alternating hot and cold water therapy
Priority request: I’m wondering about the benefits of cycling between hot (sauna, steam or hot tub) & cold (bath or lake), alternating back & forth a few times. Many claim it’s beneficial for lymphatic drainage, circulation, metabolism & the nervous system.

having one’s LoC calibrated
Priority request: I have no idea what my personal LoC is. I pray I am at 200. As a spiritual student of Doc and Brian Gibbs, I am wondering if it is to the highest good to know my personal calibration so I can measure progress (or lack of) over time?
visualizing being at the Columbarium with Doc
Priority request: For some Hawkins students, probably, the Columbarium is their happy place. What is the level of going to your happy place in this instance?
