  1. People didn't accept me and now i am scared to approach them. When i fell ill i didn't suddenly became aware of my illness, slowly little by little my body parts was showing abnormalities. I was in discomfort , not able to do anything , consults with many clinics but no one knows. People around me ignored me , didn't believe me , my family was fed-up (even though it wasn't years, i salute to those families who keep patient with their children, when children face some kind of illness which can't go away soon but takes years to get well) so in the end my family was so fed up that.. when i told them i really can't go to loo because i can't support my body, they said i am just not trying enough. 2years, when slowly my body was like this. My faith in family was fading and at-last i became numb. Family to me, i owe them like it's debt. Loan i have to give back with interest. In this time, friends left me because i was slowing them down "sorry i couldn't type text or hold phone to call because my hands is falling". All left. I wasn't even able to eat, i supported my hands in my knees to hold my jaws and move so my jaw could move (because after one chew i had to rest 2min then chew, same for hand) could hold the spoon for more than few seconds. At last, when my brain stop working for 1sec and i fall with no movement at all. Mom and me to go to biggest hospital in country and then doctor team sent me to neurologist. Then they find out i was diagnosis with "mysthania gravis". Had operation , plasma phase and still on medicine though but i am so much better. At that time no one was there but then my spiritual energy was with me. God was with me all the time. God was the only one with me. God give me positivity. God never mad me realized that i was alone. Now i want to know, will some one accept me in this world? Not so perfect me? I could do all the things normal person could do. But i am highly sensitive like a baby. If outside weather is hot/cold and i suddenly enter in AC/heater i will have fever and rest for 3days. When i go outside Uber driver drive roughly and my body become feverish and i have to take pain medicine and rest for 3-4 days. Every seasonal changes occur , high perfume/smell , high intensity food . Now i am scared... Can I live with this weak body? Will some one accept me this way?
  2. This is Usman, 37, unemployed due to pandemic. I am having a very tough time because my heart wants to stay with nature, natural living, i think it a most peaceful way. But my surroundings force me to adopt city life and have more money instead.
  3. How am i supposed to find meaning and solace in a world where I cannot even speak to the one I cherish above all things? She is not dead but I can't contact her no matter how hard I try and it seems like there's no hope. The very first time I saw her face I knew she was the only thing I was ever going to want the only thing I have wanted up to this point in my life. And now I just don't know anything at all, nothing makes sense in a world without her light.
  4. I would say yes and here is why: The most influential course I took was "the science of happiness" about which I wrote an article for the Happiness Magazine a few years ago when happiness.com was just a little blog. Since then many things changed (for the better), and I think it is fair to attribute a big chunk of it to this course because it convinced me to start with meditation. I then did an MBSR (meditation-based stress reduction) course, and a few years later I am a certified meditation and MBSR teacher. What is your favourite course and why? How did it influence your life?
  5. Do we leave people better than we found them?
  6. Hello everyone I have been on the journey for about two years now on my own and the challenges I'm facing are getting too hard to do alone. I don't have any friends or family who understand what I'm going thru. I've always been an antisocial and very insecure person and it's been holding me back my whole life. I just wish I had someone to talk to who understands.
  7. Over the past couple of years i can say i was in a dark place and couldn’t find happiness and health being present at the same time. It was always about risking another to get the other. Now i can confidently say that i have conquered the obstacle that kept me from being the best version of myself. And i’d like to share some useful tips on how i made it possible. Exercise: I cannot begin to explain how important it is to actually go out there and start working out. It could be as simple as taking a walk around the street or even going out into the nature. Exercising is not only good for you physically but also a great way to stay positive and energetic mentally. Cut back on alcohol: Alcohol and nicotine are one of the worst decisions you can choose to feel happy or relieve stress. Highly addictive unhealthy and unnecessary supplement will only eat your money and health away. What you’re looking for is long lasting happiness and health. A glass of wine or night out with your friends is never bad for you, as long as it doesn’t become a habit. Take time for yourself: If you work 9–5 jobs, or even more than that. It’s important to know when you need to use those hard earned holidays and do something you are truly passionate about, or always wanted to experience. It could be as little as cooking a royal dinner for friends and family, or spending the day with your pet dog at the local dog park. Be optimistic: Things usually tend to go bad when we start thinking things will go bad. Being open and optimistic about harsh and hard events in life could be the deciding factor in your happiness. Instead of drowning yourself in guilt after dropping your moms favorite cup on the floor, be thankful that no one got hurt and now you have a good reason to surprise your mom with a new cup. Stop caring what other people think: No one could ever know everything about you, or the way you feel and experience things. You know yourself best and should always do what you think is best for yourself. Your neighbor George might not be the best source of right answers, when it comes to your health and happiness. I believe in you and hope that my methods in finding myself be happier and healthier will provide you with valuable information. If you found these methods helpful, or would like to find methods for your needs. I highly recommend checking out this program that helped me get to where i am today.

  8. I am with my family, and we have a garden. We are short on toilet paper, and there's no flour, milk, nor pasta in the supermarkets. We can work from home and so far our salaries are not affected too much. Every day when I check the news, I feel so much gratitude for the privileged situation we are in. Nevertheless, I do feel anxiety creeping in now and then. Then it sits with me like a bad taste. I am worried about my parents who live several hours away by themselves, and I won't be able to see them any time soon. And I am concerned about all the people out there who are affected directly and harshly by the virus. I donate money, order from little shops and participate in online events of all sorts, but I also do get overwhelmed.
  9. Being present in the moment leads to encountering life and consequently one feels the real joy or sorrow depending on what one encounters in the moment. I had been a urban cerebral man all my life, leading a life of an intellectual through a profession of being a university professor. My experience of such a life is about being in either present or past and hung up in your head all the time, never really encountering life which passes by. Though in such a situation, my one hobby of taking long yearly holiday to roam in the nature in an unplanned manner saved my sanity for so many years. Lately as i crossed 50 years of my age, i feel like changing the pattern of my life and just move closer to the nature without elaborately planning it so that i will need to be spontaneously responding to situations i encounter on the way. I am tired being hung up in the head.
  10. Life After Death After death every soul who comes toward the Light when they leave the body is welcomed with Unconditional Love. After death each soul goes through a review, like a holographic experience, in which they experience the feelings of those who came in contact with them - the ones who felt love and the ones who were hurt, and they will feel those feelings exactly as the other people felt them, in real time. This teaches a profound lesson in empathy, compassion, understanding and forgiveness and so on. The soul, set free of the bounds of a constricting material container, is able to expand as it rises gently toward the Light, which is the Light of Unconditional Love, generated and sustained, with the help of our Legions of Angels and Master Guides, for the purpose of welcoming and enveloping the Homecoming soul. Each soul is welcomed, as the prodigal son was welcomed in the Bible story, regardless of the quality of the life lived. Every one of God's Precious Creations is welcomed with celebration and joy. After a period of rest, as needed depending upon the circumstances surrounding the departure from the body, the individual soul will go through a process of review which encompasses all the events and emotional connections which were made during the past life, under the mentorship of a highly evolved Guide. This process includes a reversal of roles, in real time, so that the soul may experience the feelings and thoughts of all the others who came in contact with him/her in any important way. S/he will feel all the disappointment, pain, anguish and anger which resulted from his/her own actions, as well as the actions of Love and community, compassion and forgiveness which led others to positive turns in their paths. The process of reviewing and feeling the darkness one has caused leaves the soul with greater understanding of the effect of dark actions on others, and inspires deeper empathy, compassion ad forgiveness. It also encourages the attitude of taking responsibility for one's actions, which tends to carry forward into subsequent lives. You can see now why the experience of living many lives, in many different circumstances and historical periods, would tend to hone a soul of greater integrity, depth and virtue. The optimal soul path is one which carries the person along a trajectory toward greater and greater challenges, by living lives of greater degrees of difficulty as the soul grows in stature and confidence. "If it doesn't kill you (or even if it does) it will probably make you stronger" From Spirit's perspective, "death" is just a familiar transition from one plane to another, characterized by great learning and evolution of the soul - a thing to be celebrated. Of course, there are sometimes occasions where an ambitious soul takes on more than s/he can bear, or unforeseen shifts in the trajectory of a life may bring devastating hardship. Because of our free will contract, nothing is absolutely predetermined, although possibilities can often be seen in advance of an event. Therefore, a lifetime on Gaia has always held a sense of mystery, anticipation and great excitement for the brave souls who venture here. There is nearly unlimited variety in the possible choice of experiences - rich or poor, male or female, black, white, yellow or red - all options are encouraged as the soul works their way along the Ascension path through hundreds, even thousands of lifetimes. Many of those souls who were born in the early days of Planet Earth are now working their way up the Ascension ladder to positions of responsibility as Ascended Masters in the higher realms of the 7th through the 13th dimension. Although inexperienced souls do not have access to the higher realms because the frequencies there would not be tolerable for them, souls from higher dimensions can descend to be of service to those who follow, as they most often do in some form. God, Holy Spirit, Ascended Masters, Spirit Guides, Angels and Archangels of the high realms oversee with compassion and deepest love as their dear children struggle through enormous challenges which test their valor, their integrity and their capacity for Love and Forgiveness. Some lifetimes may be more successful in one area or another, but all are fodder for learning and advancement, and all are looked upon with the utmost respect, because those in Spirit Realm are well aware of the inherent level of difficulty which is inevitable in a life on Gaia in 3D, where even the privileged and well-loved individuals encounter difficulties. The goal of this process is to elevate yourselves to higher expressions of Love, Compassion, Forgiveness, Gratitude and Empathy, nothing else. In terms of soul evolution, it matters not at all whether you achieve great wealth or fame. Money, awards and accolades may make the journey more pleasant for a time, but they are not a measure of soul value or progress at all, in spite of the way you have pursued those things in your Western cultures above all else. These pursuits are unfortunate distractions, except in rare circumstances where the individual uses their position of wealth and fame to lift others from despair, poverty, and injustice. As you can probably discern from this description, the process of soul evolution is largely reviewed and understood at the end of a life, in the Bardo, that place in the 4th dimension where planning and evaluation has taken place in the past. From there, souls have had the option to pursue training, teaching and learning in progressively higher realms, with or without further sojourns to "Boot Camp" on Gaia. However, it is understood throughout the Multiverse that soul-training on Gaia is the most perfectly-tailored testing ground to develop the higher frequency Light-filled qualities of Love and other virtues, which are considered the God qualities. Consider yourselves courageous, no matter how bogged down and confused you might be feeling at present. Please ponder this carefully and pass it on to your family members and acquaintances. Many will find this information enlightening, since it has been largely unavailable to those who are still in a body. Thank you for reading, God Bless You, Enjoy the ride, Love & Light, Namaste, OM Ω
  11. Good morning, everyone, Today I am going to share with you a discovery I made not so long ago that has made my life extremely simple. In a word, it has made me happier. I have gathered for you three videos (below) that I think are the best in this field. You just have to watch them and follow, if you wish, the advice given. Try to watch all the videos and the whole thing (it doesn't last very long and believe me, it helps). Don't hesitate to watch them again several days later to apply the advice correctly. Video 1: http://adfoc.us/53166175768250 Video 2: http://adfoc.us/53166175788687 Video 3: http://adfoc.us/53166175788693 (P. S. : When you click on the link, a page will be displayed, you will have to wait 5 seconds before clicking on the "skip" button in the top right corner; it's to avoid DDOS attacks, thanks). I hope the method will work for you as well as for me ? and don't hesitate to contact me to share your progress. I could also give you some advice. Have a good end of day!
  12. suicide is not the right transport to travel a journey after Death.
  13. Hi everyone, I'm Tracy, I live in Scotland and I'm currently training to be an End of Life Doula (sometimes known as Soul Midwife) Are there any other EOL Doulas in the group?
  14. I think it’s safe to say that acquiring material things aren’t making us any happier. In fact, stress and depression are more common now than ever before. We live in a world where consumption has become an addiction. It’s all about the getting the newest, latest or biggest, which distracts us from what really brings satisfaction and joy. I sometimes look around my apartment and think, “how did I accumulate so much crap?!”. I also often dream about being in place and when I have to leave, I struggle with packing my luggage because I just have SO. MUCH. STUFF! I remember a happiness.com article from a while ago, stating the benefits of living a simple life, and earlier today, I saw someone reading the book Simplify Your Life: 100 Ways to Slow Down and Enjoy the Things That Really Matter. Has anyone here read that book? Now, I’d like to know HOW to live a more simple life and where does one actually begin? I suppose making small manageable changes in the beginning is a good start. What are some of the ways we could all live simpler lives and focus on what really matters, such as our health and well-being, our mental health, and family and friend relationships? All and any tips on simple living and relevant books and other content welcome ?
  15. I just read this thread on Quora, and thought it a great piece of advice to share: What are the lessons people most often learn too late in life? Sharyn Wolf (LCSW-R, Psychotherapist in private practice in New York City) writes the following: I am 67 years old. These are among the best things I have ever learned: You spend your first 20 years worrying what people think about you. You spend your next 20 years swearing that you don’t care what people think about you. You spend the next 20 years realising that they aren’t thinking about you. A liberation! Any day on this side of the dirt is a good day. Some people didn’t make the cut last night. I was hit by a speeding taxi as I was walking to a bus stop. I spent a month in rehab with two broken legs, a brain injury, multiple back injuries and other fractures. The night before I was hit, a young, married couple was also hit. They both died. Practice gratitude. A woman I know spends most of her time thinking about how much she hates her thighs. She can give you a detailed report on what is wrong with them. She forgets all the places those legs have taken her, all the miles they have walked for her. It doesn’t occur to her that when she gets up in the middle of the night to pee, those very thighs walk her to the toilet. Spend more time appreciating what you’ve got— a heart that beats, a way to pick up your cup of coffee, the eyes that see that cup and know what colour it is. Blessings abound. There are two kinds of people in this world – those who believe there is enough to go around, and those who don’t. Here is an example: If Margo is leaning up against the car kissing her boyfriend, and I think how nice that must feel, do I try to steal Margo’s boyfriend or do I go out and get my own boyfriend? I go out and get myself a boyfriend. I don’t need to steal Margo’s. I know that there is enough to go around. An old Native American woman was asked why she was always so happy. She said that she has two wolves in her heart and they are both hungry— one wolf is angry and evil, the other wolf is filled with love, and that's the only one she feeds. Happy Friday, everyone!

  17. Haha just joking!! I'm new to most of this. I never thought a year ago I'd be going through any of this or "digging" so deep into myself. I never really even knew how far apart from my soul I was until my awakening was triggered. It's been very intense, confusing and lonely. Recent life changes I have felt compelled to make out of what seems like nowhere (as people who have "known me" would probably put it) have made me feel like I'm going crazy. After lots of research, coaching and self work I finally know I'm not completly crazy lol. I have also found that I am not alone which is wonderful news! I've never opened my mind to this type of stuff before and the onset of everything seemed out of nowhere. Now im trying to just go with the flow and see where the universe is trying to guide me. That's not too easy for a person like me who has had a habits of overthinking and questioning everything in life. Trust and faith has never come easy to me in my life...and now here I am. I am pleased to have found this community and nice to meet you all and hopefully many others to come ??
  18. Unter einer guten Work-Life-Balance stellen sich die meisten einen gesunden Ausgleich von Arbeitsleben und genug Zeit für Privatleben, Freizeitaktivitäten und Familienzeit vor. Work-Life-Balance kann aber für jede Einzelperson etwas anderes bedeuten. Bei Familien beispielsweise bedeutet eine gute Work-Life-Balance genug Zeit für die Kinder zu haben. Andere möchten Zeit für pflegebedürftige Angehörige haben, für wieder andere steht das Ausüben von Hobbys und Sport im Vordergrund. Was alle gemeinsam haben, ist der Wunsch, genug Erholungsphasen und weniger Erschöpfungssymptome durch zu viel Stress und zu hohen Anforderungen im Arbeitsleben zu haben. Mehr und mehr kommt der Trend zu einem simplen Lifestyle auf, der eine bessere Work-Life-Balance ermöglicht. Die Idee ist ganz einfach: Je weniger konsumiert wird, desto weniger Geld wird für das tägliche Leben benötigt. Die Kosten lassen sich senken und es muss weniger gearbeitet werden. Letztendlich träumt jeder von einem dynamischen Gleichgewicht zwischen Arbeits- und Privatleben. Wünschenswert wäre es doch, die Arbeit zu tun, die einen erfüllt und glücklich macht, aber eben noch genug Zeit für sich selbst, die Familie und soziales Engagement zu haben. Eine gute Work-Life-Balance – was meinst du? Schwierig, oder machbar? Wie setzt du das um?
  19. We live in a world where we always talk about work life balance . I never understood what 'Balance' people are talking about. If we work in an office from Monday to Friday- 8 hours a days, It has to be something really good , something you really enjoy, somewhere you feel safe, somewhere you feel respected, somewhere your colleagues smile at you, somewhere we share food and culture. We should treat everyday as important . We have created Nasty Mondays, Oh Fu** its Monday, Thank God its Friday and I dont know whatelse. I believe every day , every moment of your life is important and the sad part is people mostly live for weekends. If do every task with pleasure and joy , see every client we talk to as just a Human being, feel the computer you type with love . When you can experience everything at work with Joy and pleasure , you will see that you will never talk about work life Balance. There is only Life :)
