I think my most significant "revelation" of 2020 was how much better I can deal with the contradictions and extremes of life and accept change. If I had had the chance of overthinking living during a pandemic, it would have been so much harder. (I am not saying that it isn't - and I am also aware that I am in an enormously privileged position - and still it's not easy) Some things became so much more, some things were less, and all of it allowed for a perspective change, and an adaption of my habits and a lot of things were suddenly possible that seemed impossible before. Life is an unpredictable mess that we try so hard to control, but we can't, and still, life goes on and in the end, what matters is how kind we were to each other.

What merciless circumstances. It's hard to imagine how painful that must have been, to be denied even the opportunity to grieve your sudden loss. I've also experienced sudden and inexplicable loss, and one point that must be addressed is acknowledging the death. For most of the time that you've known him, you've been concerning yourself with your husband's life and happiness. Those intentions are like a river; when they have somewhere to go, they flow all the way to the ocean in an endless cycle. But if they keep flowing toward where there's nowhere for them to go, they'll back up and cause flooding, destruction, and stagnation. When your husband died, his ability to receive your intentions was lost. Your river is backing up all the way to its source, and you're drowning in it. Your husband is now beyond earthly concern. Nothing you do can harm or help him. You are not keeping him alive by sending your good intentions his way. There are no more "what ifs" or "if onlys". There is no betrayal in saying goodbye. The universe isn't going to be nice and give him back. If you're the kind of person whose affection overflows and doesn't easily turn off, then maybe you need to redirect it toward a living concern instead, like your dogs or volunteer work, or yourself. You're still alive, and it's unfair for your living body if you chain it to a dead one. You need self-affection as well.

Thanks everyone in my life right now is looking to me to be the fixer. Everyone just wants something from me. I wish I did have people that appreciated it but right now it just feels like what can I do for them is the question. Sometimes you just want to be in the background.

Glad to be here and excited to interact with everyone! About me: 39 year old dad of 3 amazing kids, explorer, love outdoor activities, high-functioning Autistic (basically just take things too seriously and don't pick up on the emotions of others very well), and VERY grateful to be in a place in my life where I have breathing room to discover more about who I want to be and how I want to live life. I was raised strictly religious and only realized it wasn't what I wanted for my life and was dragging me down about 7 or 8 years ago. Reinventing myself has been TOUGH and I am struggling daily, but I have been able to get to a point where I realize the "downs" are temporary. I love international travel with my family, speak English & Russian and a little bit of German & Spanish, and cannot wait until travel restrictions lift and we can get back on a plane again. Photo is of me and my family in Portugal hiking a trail called the "Paiva Walkways"

Hi first of all pls relax your mind and calm down a bit. There is nothing in this world which can't be sorted out. Two rival nations can sit across the table and come to a mutual conclusion. So I am assuming there is something in the back of your mind which is bothering you. So you have ideally two choices: 1.) Can this thing be sorted? If yes go for it, give your best shot to turn around the tables and pull the result in your favor. 2.) If nothing can't be done then what is the point of being cry baby living in chaos. Better you move on and live your life. Sucidal thoughts are worst. You are young and have possess all the power to get anything. Be brave and be giving to enjoy the life.

Hi one and all. It’s a pleasure to join your group. I am coming into alignment with my life purpose which is supporting the dying holistically and spiritually. I am currently gaining as much knowledge as I can in this area and am doing your course on grief. I am interested in making new friends and contacts in the group too with resonant souls. I am from the U.K. but happy to engage with souls from anywhere in the world. Much love and many blessings Louise

I've been seeing and hearing the term "conscious living" wherever I turn lately, but what does it really mean? Is it the same as mindful living? Is it the truth of being human? Does it mean waking up to our full potential and being aware of everything we consume with our energy and senses, and the effect that has on us? Or does it refer to "hippie" stuff like hugging trees and living in forests eating only what we salvage from the land? ? I think living consciously refers to many aspects of our daily lives that we can become more mindful of and educate ourselves on. Many books and articles communicate that when one lives a conscious life, we're more likely to be living a life of joy and happiness. I read a great article by Vishnu that shares ways in which we can all start living more consciously and I found it to be super inspiring and a great starting point for adopting conscious practices into my daily life. Here are the main points to focus on: Ask yourself what you want. Do what makes you happy. Live in alignment with your truth. Accept yourself for who you are. Do work that's in tune with your being. Ignore society's demands and 'guidance'. Spend wisely. Walk with courage. Say "no" more. Be picky. Go within. Let go. Treasure the moment. Practice daily acts of forgiveness. Focus on what you have. Give freely. Practice compassion. Capture the silence. Be observant of the ego. Be mindful of your words. Wash away anger with love. What does conscious living mean to you, and how do you practice it in your everyday life? Does anyone have tips to share for those who are new to it? Thank you.

Hi, I'm new here and am reaching out to share my love and support and hopefully to receive some much needed understanding and comfort back. My mum died, very suddenly, 4 years ago today. At the time, everyone rallied around, every one was understanding and wanted to help. To be honest, it was such a blur of disbelief and shock that the time just kind of passed by. So today, I am incredibly sad, I miss my mum so much, I want to be held and told I'm actually doing OK and that she's proud of me... But instead I'm very alone and lost. In general I think I'm a happy person, a people pleaser and will make sure everyone around me is OK and hears what they need to at the right time - I don't have a person in my life that thinks like that and is there for me....which I think makes me feel lonelier. I've read alot and know I should be the friend I need, to myself but that's hard Does anyone feel like this at all? Looking forward to getting to know you out there, big love ❤️

Hello Bobbie, First of all, my condolences for your loss. I can relate how lonely you must be feeling after y mom died. She must be a big part of your life. Being a people pleaser is hard because y dont can please everyone. Most of the time people are very ungrateful too. Often you don't even get a thank you. It is taken for granted. I think y can be a good friend. But first of all you must learn to like yourself. Than you have more love for others. I wish y the best on your way ❤️

For long life healthy living is important and for healthy living good Food is the way

When i was 29 i had the same expierience. Fortunately it opened my real path as a wounded healer and to deeper knowledge. I almost died from allergic schock caused by antibiotics. It turned out that i was allergic. Allergy is a Greek word which means "change what you do". Being faithful to my soul was the answer in my life. Learning to cooperate with myself, setting boundaries and letting go of toxic family members who undermined my worth and wellbeing because of jealousy and a need to control was the key. Looking deeper into situations and aknowleging that others projected on me their issues. This understanding allows both self respect and compassion towards the other. We can t help someone who does not want it.

I know that some people might not agree: But one of my gifts are knowing when someone is trying to manipulate us. And I have never trusted the Government(except trump), I have done extensive digging into the subject and my thoughts are that there is something not quite right. Even if there is a virus out there. It’s not as bad as you think. If they actually advertise how many people die of just a reg flu, the number would be higher. This is the only time, with all of history’s of plegues and epidemics that we are isolating the healthy. These people have an agenda. They want to separate us from one another so we don’t discover the true that we are stronger together then apart. The media is ruled by the few that seek to keep us from knowing who we truly are. And how powerful we are when we realize that there is no different between you and I. We need to show them that we aren’t scared by there lies. We need to stand up and show them by gathering together with out our masks in front of our leaders. And say we have had enough. And we as the majority (we the people) should be telling what we want our world to be. We want a world that’s chemical free, free fresh food grown locally with out chemicals, free education. Which would allow us to the choice to be who ever we want to be. When people are given a choice without limitations, they will be a more happy and productive person in society. Money decided equally across the globe. Or better still no money needed. There would be no reason to steal or be jealous or be insecure. When everyone gets the same opportunities how much more advanced we would be. We have been lied to since the beginning. And it’s time for people to wake up to the horrible truth that we are being controlled. And we can have this life i described, if we unit as one all over the world. And eliminate the evil that seeks to destroy us. Copy and paste this into you search Engine. You can help by joining the movement and help people realize there is more to life then we could ever imagine. https://youtu.be/lEV5AFFcZ-s Also stop watching media on tv. They are only telling you what they want to to believe is true; Epoch times app is available with real news. You also could watch the “fall of the cabal” . https://youtu.be/PIJxuHibz_I Sending energy, light and love to protect you all Be good to one another and remember fear is more contagious then a virus. Don’t let them stop you from living your life to the fullest. Staying connected to one another is the best weapon of all. sorry for the long rant, I woke up and I was Mad . No one hurts my family, ( my fellow earth people. )

“What is the one thing I want people to know about me?”. I have become a better person by making positive changes. I was at a low point years ago when I started my self-development journey, as I wanted to see a different future for myself. That was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Learning about myself at a deeper level, accepting my self-worth and embracing that change is something I would recommend for those who want a better life for themselves.

Hi Lou, lou, I hope you are well. This fantastic news I am bereaved child my mother passes 2021. For the past 8 years I have wanted to work in supporting people with End of Life Care as I feel it's a very important topic people should have. I have worked in UK for 25 years in mental health and death is a taboo topic. Good luck on your journey.

10/18/19 18.10.19 Dear Mr. Steib, Holbrook, whomever else this may concerns, everyone both on/ff of here:, Hi my name is Jessica A Bruno (waybeyondfedup). Live in both Metro Los Angeles and New York on New Jersey side of it USA. Born with a Neurologically based speech impairment/apraxia-dysarthria. Suffering from depression/anxiety for awhile now. Still I’m not one, but have no to little income. I receive Social Security Benefits for all of it. In which I’m glad for, but still wish I had other means as well, but in I still don’t. At the same time still don’t drive or intend to anytime in the future. Whom needs more of a life then what she has had so far. As opposed to what it has been for the most part of her life and etc. Yet to reach this stage of life and beyond. I’m of a student of life and currently looking for her next opportunity. I’m still trying to found myself after all of these years. I’m also no spring chicken. Beyond all of both content and members I am back here yet again because I finally found what I have been looking for. With even one more to add. Especially, the amount of the time it took me to found. Is just me that is still wondering whatsoever happened to all of these chit chat forum/chats/discussions/talks/forums. Thats includes blogs/social media networking platforms/portals. I mean regarding feminist/s/ism/woman/en/s/debate/s/ing/beyond. I mean for one totally think thats because with all of political correctness/censored/bias/beyond. Especially, with all of conventional/fake/majority/mainstream/beyond leading the way. As opposed to with all of alternative/independent/minority/real/truth/beyond. Thats apart of the problem/s as well. In which again I am not giving any promises as to how long I stay, but hoping it is going to be on the more side of it. Especially, regarding this particular subject/s. In which I usually stay away from. Yet again another on this. Especially, one would think all of this should be over now. At the same time I’m also thinking of this being of the many possible scenarios that all of us should be beyond alert/prepared for/disaster/emergency preparedness/survival/shtf. I mean for all of man made/natural ones as opposed to one over the other. Especially, including all of civilians as well as professional. Everyone/where else should all do it as well.I also highly recommend beyond all of start doing your own learning and researching on it as well. I mean this also applies beyond to everything that I have mentioned above here. To me I found its very important so you can be proactive in it. Also, please take everything with a grain of salt as well. Especially, pseudoscience part of it as well. This also applies to beyond as well. waybeyondfedup with my mom’s cancer battle, both my fraternal twin sister, and my coping skills with it. Know that its been couple/few yrs since (4/26/16) and all of this a combination of my blog entries that I did at the time that I combined into all in one. Back because she has lost it and it didn’t go as planned. I mean not just this, but during the whole process. Have to say now I was pretty much in denial with the whole thing. Even through I knew was suffering, but still thought it was less as severe as this. Back again because I forgot to mentioned that she (right after she found) and she found from there that it showed she had BCRA2. Then after both my twin sister and me were both tested for it. It only I showed that I was suspected to 2, but forgot if it was for ovarian and/or breast. I couldn’t remember and even after through all of the paperwork. Now, I really need to look into all (both conventional/mainstream and traditional/integrative) because I for one still have a love and hated relationship with both medicines. In regards to what happened to her and especially, in the end with her brain tumor. In which she never complained at all because she was always beyond doer and carer. I’m back with even more. Basically, she went back to work when she did (couple wks after). At first, it wasn’t a issue until this past wk. When one of her friend from college went into the hospital because of inflammation in her. Then, everything started to spiraled, spl (spelling) for her. Well, not for her work. In which she mentioned opened to doing the support group at Valley Home Care and she called. But hasn’t called back to found out more about. At the same time shes also showing signs of her moodiness as well. I have no clue if its general or something underline. In which she had a little cold again, last wk. By the way shes the maid of honor for one of her best friends wedding and everything that ideals. Her friend is like her with her mom’s cancer (breast) battle. Thinks thats everything and well at least that I can both remember and think of. Well get back to if I have anything else to add to this. Back again with more whom she was and whom we are. I for one prefer more of an integrative form of it. In which my mom, dad, and sister were brainwashed about it. Especially, more after the original diagnosis. Shes also a retired RN and she was one for 45 yrs. Of course my dad and sister still are. That also includes the rest of our remaining family and our friends as well. At least our family friends. We found it was more aggressive than we original thought it was. Basically, its ovarian cancer and she was 1st diagnosed with it as stage IV back in 2008. She had she been receiving on, off, with a few recurrences in between. Then, last yr it came back in a form of a brain tumor and again she was treated for. In which we all thought that was the last of it because she went onto treatment after that. At the first she was a experimental drug, but then that didn’t work. So, went back her old treatment and then it all started from there. Even through after going to a doctor in the city. We have since decided to stopped all of it and go toward with comfort care. Shes currently a inpatient there, receiving treatment, and it appears to be working for her. At moment we are remaining cautionary optimistic about it. At the same time I would love explore other volunteer options at Valley because I don’t know if I can continue with her old doctor because all of this. Back because she took a turn for the worse sometime overnight or early this morning. My fraternal twin sister called my father and me father regarding this morning. Basically, this whole day and beyond has been a whirlwind for all of us. Belated Waybeyondfedup worried about how my fraternal twin sister is coping with our mother’s death and especially over this past week for sure Its pretty much a mo now since her death and everything happened to leading up to it. sI mean we should be getting over the initial shock of it and getting back to normal. Well, of course our new normal. Have to say that I’m really not worried about my father about this because hes not going to change. Still I’m more worried about my fraternal twin sister more because shes more like our mom and that includes our dad as well. Whom takes care of everyone/thing before herself. In which I do get, but then don’t. I mean shes had her issues with certain things and etc. In which I’m not going into on here because whats the point of getting into on her. Belated Back yet again with another hospitalization story with my both depression and anxiety But this time this was totally different hospital and experience. Basically, it all started with my mother’s passing from her cancer battle a mo ago with a little meltdown, but still not a full blown one until this one. In which went to the local hospital emergency room and also went for this past one. Then, lived with it off and on until a couple of wks ago with my period. Trying some new meds, vitamins, supplements (homeopathic, multivitamins, and supplements), but in the end none of them worked because they aren’t a exact science. It was also in combination of nervous about my sister’s live to work lifestyle vs work to live lifestyle. In which it drove me to first er and then hospital. All and all was pretty good experience expect from here to there. Think thats it for now. Thank you, again, in advance. Yours truly,

Hi there, Im new here and on a spiritual awakening. Been stuck in rage and anger at myself; as well as, my life circumstances. I'm where I am today due to the choices I have made. I'm not satisfied with who I have become. I been looking inward and I'm disappointed. I'm not who I thought I was or portrayed myself as. I want to be someone I can be proud of. I been stuck in this place a while. Trying to claw my way out. Searching for God to reveal himself to me like never before. I still have my faith but it has transformed drastically. I love people who are broken and will sacrifice my needs for others any day. I'm the first person to help when someone is in need. I feel a dark cloud over me and I'm ready for the sunshine!!!! Nice to meet everyone

Bettering mental health is not a quick fix or a magical cure. It requires consistent effort and a deep understanding of the science behind it. One such ancient proven science is the practice of yoga and pranayama. These techniques have been used for thousands of years to promote mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing. Through a combination of postures, breathing exercises, and meditation, yoga and pranayama work to calm the mind, reduce stress, and improve overall mental health. While the effects of these practices may feel like magic, they are rooted in the scientific principles of physiology and psychology, making them a reliable and effective tool for bettering mental health Through the guidance and support of Kaivalyadhama, individuals can discover the tools and practices they need to create a life of health, happiness, and wellbeing

hey! I'm Joseph Mack, Depression is a serious mental health condition that can have a significant impact on an individual's life. It is important to seek help from qualified professionals if you are feeling depressed or overwhelmed. Mental Health services such as counseling, psychotherapy and medication management can be beneficial in helping individuals manage their depression symptoms. Additionally, lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, healthy eating habits and social support networks may also help reduce the severity of depression symptoms.

(This is a short series of 10 articles I wrote) Part 1; 1 / Collecting the stars Light in your eyes reflects the stars at night. Dreaming you have someone at your side but standing alone with a vision of past and future, or is it hope? If you head you feel that light tingling of energy streaming from up down in your head, your shoulders and filling your breasts. The energy fills your body and slowly occupies your soul. A gentle feeling lands on you and makes you sit down in complete peace of mind. What happened? The Universe is filled with energy and you are a part of it. Sometimes the “doors” of “heaven” open and your body is on the right place to be filled with the energy. The best way is to compare with a flash of lightning striking the earth. The chance it happens is very rare but when it happens you are completely consumed by it. Some people will encounter it and others never do. Is it possible to seek these places on earth to encounter the energy transfers? Yes, it is! The selection is not as random as most people think. Thunderstorms bring lightning, that is clear to everyone. Before and after these storms the energy of the “air” is still high. On a special altitude and right natural environment, the energy levels increase faster than elsewhere. Sometimes an energy tunnel opens and streams of cosmic energy exchange with the earth. This shows a close connection between the earth and the Universe. The interaction is positive and can never harm a person who interacts with it. Cosmic energy is not like electricity, unlike the thunder flashes of lightning. It is pure non-electric energy used to exchange information between parts of nature. The idea that earth is just rock is only believed by the people who do not understand the real concept of life. Our earth and the Universe are as much alive as we are, only on a different level of conception. Everything has a form of life. The difference between us and these living forms is the “biological” component of our existence. As a biological form, our weakness is the temporary existence, our lives are made for a short period. Biological elements live in cycles of time. The Universe does not, time is no essence there. When we can be open and collect the “stars” it is possible to enlarge our soul to become a Universal part and transfer our life energy back to the origin, connect with the core of life, the Universal energy. Interested? Let your messages flow to me……….
