keeping a diary or journal
Also blogging for personal/spiritual growth.
Self-help
“Just do it”
Nike slogan dating back to the 1980s. By request.
abdicating one’s power
Request: also, what is a good way to mitigate this? It often occurs to me, that even by fighting to reclaim it you have already bought the premise that your power is vulnerable?
low energy
Request: Sometimes I notice a low energy like I'm just physically tired for a couple of hours or half a day. Is that always a negative energy (cal. under 200) or is it sometimes just a physiological tiredness?
physical exercise as a spiritual practice
A way of honoring the correlation of the physical and the spiritual.
cultivating an aesthetic physical appearance
Request: some view it as vain.
avoidance of sexuality
Priority request: And all the negative feelings that go with, shame, fear, desire and anger. How does one get out of this mess?
realizing life is not a competition
Priority request: So many of us think we have to compete for money, relationships, status, attention, and even love. It really seems like a massive ego pillar. With how deeply ingrained this idea of scarcity and lack seems to be, I wonder how high one would need to calibrate?
"I deserve good things"
Priority request: The statement seems crucial to self esteem, as well as being able to value and enjoy life. Whether or not deservingness is constructive as a concept seems less important than the affirmation that one is fundamentally worthy of blessings, grace and forgiveness.
letting "the one" find you
rather than seeking to find "the one" -- request.
effect of having and caring for a pet
Request: When I’m back home with my dogs, I always feel like it increases my LoC, in the heart, especially. My guess is that its in the ‘taking care’ aspect.
Serenity Prayer
Prayer written by Reinhold Niebuhr and adopted by Alcoholics Anonymous and other twelve-step programs -- wikipedia.
a problem
A situation, matter, or person that is hard to deal with or understand. A personal matter that causes one difficulty or needs to be dealt with -- American Heritage Dictionary.
statement: self-esteem is automatically monetized
The principle that income is naturally and effortlessly attracted by awareness of one's self-worth.
level: "I'm not enough"
Request: it seems to be a common belief among people - What is it essentially? Grief? Shame? At what level its healed? Is it primarily in thymus?
