friday

today I fasted for a while. Did my exercises. Journalled a bit. Journalling felt healing. I then smoked in the evening, and that helped me. I really need to be strict with the siesta though because doing that in Italy really helped. It made me sleep better after at night too. Removing tech, adding naps, and being mindful with energy in general through the day, that seems the key.

i watched Dave’s show unstoppable. It was a great special I really loved it. I can’t believe so many online whinged about it. There is a massive movement of complainers currently who don’t enjoy anything and just professionally seek reasons to say why something wasn’t good or it was flawed. I think they just all have anhedonia. They’re a bunch of gooners overusing technology, not meditating, so their reward receptors are overstimulated, so they are perpetually dissatisfied by everything.

beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Anything you consume is created in your head. If you are wired properly, most art will be magic. There will be something in it that produces awe in you. If you never enjoy stuff it’s likely cause youre living dumb. Be still. Remove stimulation. Read books. Spend time outside.
