fasting

Compare with and without spiritual intention. Intention makes a huge difference.

porn as a spiritual practice

Not recommended. ADAP calibration confirms intuition that this is not a spiritual practice and may incur negative karma and deleterious outcomes consistent with the level of grief.

sacred tobacco (rapé)

Request: From the Amazon, gaining popularity around Europe. With so many spiritual seekers using this and calling it 'medicine', I'm curious about its LoC ?

napping as a spiritual practice

Request: Hawkins mentions that napping is helpful when letting go of hunger. Can napping be helpful in the letting go process in general or as a spiritual practice? I have used it for prayer by listening to meditative or spiritual music and have had profound dreams at times.

crying as a spiritual practice

Request: Letting yourself cry can feel wonderful. Let it all out!

recontextualization as a spiritual practice

Request: What is LoC of this part of Doc's teachings? Recontextualization seems to always work if it is sincerely used, even when all other methods fail.

Wim Hof Method

Cold therapy, breathing, commitment.

Letting Go: The Pathway of Surrender

Calibration of Dr. Hawkins' book.

acting as a spiritual practice

In the context of facilitating personal growth and positive transformation, acting can be a very effective form of therapy.

zazen, shikantaza meditation

Styles of Zen meditation.

forgiving others for their past mistakes

Priority request.

visualizing the desired outcome, then surrendering it to God

Priority request: spiritual teachers advise to be unattached to outcomes. I found this approach useful. It lets the mind settle because I feel like I got something "off my chest" and then there is peace that God will bring about what is supposed to happen, independent of my desires and fears.

asking God to help others

Request: When you see the suffering of another person, ask God to help them. Is it good to do it or is it better to believe that God will help them anyways and not pray for them?

"yes, Lord"

Possibly the most powerful spiritual posture a human being can assume, that of following the Lord no matter what.
