Suppressed Voices

The worst spot to be
in is having a suppressed voice. Or you don’t speak out honestly
to yourself when alone.

Learn to say: I
don’t like this feeling. I like this thought, but that one I
don’t. You can completely rebuild your inner world via your voice.

You also have access
to your nervous system via your voice

Why you need those monkey jumps. You need those monkey jumps to jump with your body, dimensions. They are steps of explaining. Without those, you can’t access your subconscious.

The most important thing is that you are moving your whole body around every second of the day. You are responsible for your whole body, including carrying your own brain.

Wattage (intensity)

You can use your body (for now on) yourself at a maximum wattage, for example when you are in a heavy workout, or at the lowest wattage, which is totally softening your body from head to toe. Zero intensity. It's important that you can separate these two.

Voltage (energy)

Now let's say you taught yourself a way of dealing with emotions. It's very tempting to do this by limiting your food intake. Because when you do, your whole body is going to run at a lower voltage the whole time. Which is convenient, because now all the bad feelings are also at a lower voltage. So you actually feel relatively good versus eating. It makes perfect sense. You actually feel better.

The problem is this: since you limit your food intake, your body has less energy to distribute. Now you (your body) have a choice:

• you use that energy to breathe and limit the energy that goes into thinking
• you die

In other words: you are in trouble. You think the solution is to limit your food intake, which initially made you feel better. But the energy circulating around in your body is also at a lower voltage.

The only reason why ADHD/ADD is scary is because you don’t understand how it works

Reversed, there is autism, which can be (for me) extremely task-oriented.

It feels like you are putting a steamship in a certain direction, and it won’t be distracted, only focused on that task. Besides that, it can also be a narrow view. You strip away all the information that is not necessary, like a lot of social information, because you only focus on that task and the details. A lot of these tasks don’t really need social things, so you drop them.

The key here, at least for me, is to sometimes move the ship towards another small task, which is the hard part. It can be tempting to start the same thought the same way all day long until you drop down.

Don't Be Too Hard on Yourself

If you're doing nothing,
no little task, then what do you do?

Then your little task
shifts to the inside of your body.

Or your little task
shifts to looking out the window and enjoying the view.

Some people
find this scary. I think it's the best thing there is.

You can quietly see
where thoughts come from, where feelings grow, and see why
you think what you think.

So don't be too
hard on yourself when you're doing nothing.

Just look at that
thought for a moment, and then the next one.

Buddhists do this
by making their little task “breathing” and paying very close attention to it. No idea why you'd do that. Not fun at all. It's much more fun to see where something keeps changing inside your body. Look, there a new feeling is growing.
