Life is counter-intuitive for your reptilian brain

Life is counter-intuitive for your reptilian brain

Life is counter-intuitive if your source of intuition is your mind

Most of what you call intuition, isn’t. It is, in fact, reaction. Mostly it is the reaction of your reptilian brain.

The reptilian brain seems to have retained the memories and the learned behaviors of our reptilian ancestors.

You hold your breath when there is danger. Make yourself unnoticeable and blend into your environment. That, unless you are ready for a confrontation. Then attack first ask questions later. these are all from the reptilian brain. Continue reading “Life is counter-intuitive for your reptilian brain”

Reframing: our tool for creating

You’ve heard of the expression: like a deer caught in the headlights syndrome: frozen, seeing the world one way with no escape route.

Most people live their whole lives in that state: see the world in a fixed way.

To one degree or another we are all are like that.

The more of your life is lived in that state, the more powerless you feel, the less options, the less choices you see.

You can examine any two people with different results in life and you’ll see that they are stuck in one view of the world, but their view is different.

Obviously, having new choices, having new options, having different actions available to you is a good thing if you want to have a life worth living.

People who feel out of control, people who feel that they don’t have a say in what happens to them, are people with depression.

Anxiety, worry… Many bad feelings are a result of you having no tools in your tool box… or you not using them.

Anxiety, worry… Many bad feelings are a result of you having no tools in your tool box… or you not using them.

As a True Empath I have to feel people’s emotions.

So I am sitting here feeling someone’s emotions who is suffering from anxiety.

He or she, I have no way to know who it is, has to make a decision, I guess. 1

In marketing classes, in marketing literature it is said that we make decisions emotionally and then justify our decision with reasoning.

But our emotions are not intelligent, they don’t care about reality, and in addition, they are highly manipulable.

Here is an example that may make me look bad, but who cares? Continue reading “Anxiety, worry… Many bad feelings are a result of you having no tools in your tool box… or you not using them.”

I don’t feel like writing an article today…

I don’t feel like writing an article today…

 

I don’t feel like writing an article.

It feels like unless I am careful, I am slipping into a depressed state. This happens around Daytime Savings Time… I get confused and sleep too much. And the body decides that it’s time to go into hibernation.

I have been able to stop this process every time for the past few years… so I am confident that I’ll be able to come back fast.

But this post, instead of an article, will be a few links… links to stuff I found useful reading.

Some weird health and eating questions or how I got well

Some weird health and eating questions or how I got well

fat-burning-metabolismOne of my clients is unwilling to take Omega 2 capsules, because he says: “I don’t want to get fat”

I first started to experiment with the fat burning metabolism some six years ago.

I liked the idea of eating sugar free ice cream from real cream…

I packed on 30 lbs, 13-14 kilos, in 10 days.

I have been eating a stick of butter a day, fatty lamb, and eggs… for two months now.

I am dropping between half a pound to a pound a week.

I feel good. I do have some carbohydrate cravings and I satisfy it by eating peppers, and almonds. Both slightly sweet. just enough to stop the cravings. A gram here and there…

What is digestion, and why you should know that, intimately?

What is digestion, and why you should know that, intimately?

digestion-illustration_acs_webAre you planning a cleanse? purging? A drastic change of diet? Based on what? Ignorance?

You can’t be well, you can’t be happy, you can’t be sharp if you are not well inside!

One of the reasons today’s human suffers is this: you have delegated most if not all decision making to “experts”… and you hoped that you would never have to know anything about those areas of life and you’d be safely and nicely taken care of.

A step on delegation in the 67 steps begs to differ.

Unless you have at least cursory and accurate knowledge in what you are delegating, you are setting yourself up to being the sucker…

Depression is often not recognized…

Depression is often not recognized…

depression-is-not-stopping-herI am prone to depression. Not sadness, but a loss of aliveness, a loss of inner motivation.

I have barely came out of a bout with one… and have been intensely curious of what caused it.

Depression, as I experience it, has no emotional reason.

When I look, I have no reason for depression, so the cause is not outside of a person… it is an inside job.

My experience has been that the factors are nutrition and sleep.

What foods cause obesity, delusions, mood swings?

Delusions, Lies, Pretenses, Obesity — what is the cause?

Most people think that they are honest people. Some people know that they lie about this and that.

What they don’t know is that they live on the top of a huge iceberg of lies, delusions, pretenses, but they can only see the tip of the iceberg… unless…

This week was a line of demarcation for me, in more ways than one. Continue reading “What foods cause obesity, delusions, mood swings?”

Can Addictions Be Cured By Energy Treatments, Meditation, Law of Attraction, Even Activation? Any Idea? Read This Post To Be Surprised…

Addiction-imageWe are all addicted. How dare you say that? Well, if you live in the 21st Century, you are addicted. How come? Because addiction is simply pleasure seeking behavior. The hunt for more endorphins.

There are two kinds of pleasure:

  1. Seeking for excitement or other dopamine releasing activity or substance
  2. seeking for the cessation of some discomfort or pain. Ask a person who is in pain and ask what they want. They won’t say: I want a shot of whiskey. They will say: I want this pain to stop. That is also pleasure seeking behavior, just like:Escape from depression.
    Escape from the noise of the world.
    Escape from your troubles.
    Escape from your pressing duties.
    Escape from your debts, worries, pain, anxiety, phobias, fears, guilt, etc. is all pleasure seeking activity.

Which makes us all addicted. To different things, to different degrees, but yet…
