today i will focus on digesting my experiences in a different way. when negative emotions (eg, judgment, fear, frustration) arise, i will not express them either outwardly thru words and actions or inwardly thru spinning and repeating thoughts.

instead i will slow down and focus on experiencing their actual energies. the actual physical sensations of their energies. i will see if experiencing this raw energy nourishes my path instead of distracting me from it.

i guess the experiment is, can fear, judgment, frustration, etc propel me instead of stagnating me?

we shall see! (if i can even keep this in mind to do as negative emotions arise 😂 stoopid minds... they are so full of themselves 😤)

I think it can. You are the processor. Extract the good from the bad. 🫂

Looking forward to hear your thoughts after.

Hearing* 😆😆

you sure the no coffee is a good idea? 🙃😂

i was caffeine free for a couple months last summer. felt great for sure.

Be aware of and experiencing the unpleasant sensations (whatever makes them manifest) and surrendering them in the moment allowing them to pass away without reaction makes room for the positive high vibration energies to arise within.

This to me is progressive purification or as my meditation teacher calls it progressive enlightenment.

also this is p normal zen stuff. nothing is "wrong". i am human and negative emotions are a part of that. you could call this a spiritual practice i guess but that sounds so intense. it is just one of those ways i am weird and like to challenge myself.

i lift weights for my body and challenge the normal flow of synapses to train my mind.
