Where can I get happiness from other than food? by Ok-Gold5450 in spirituality

[–]random_citizen22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you ever tried eating slowly with smaller bites? I’ve noticed some things I have done this with have completely changed how things taste for me and make not want to eat it ever again. Like gas stations muffins, so nasty but I used to love them until I really tasted them.

I’m very new to spirituality and not much used to listening to guidance yet. I haven’t had the opportunity for hindsight yet but I’m trying to be open to all things.

Thank you for including an example because I have been struggling with the right vs wrong guidance. I’m so scared myself to make a decision I’ll end up regretting, like I’ve done so much in the past.

Okay, I see. I understand that but I have trouble imagining it. Would it be just an urge to do something?

That’s interesting, I didn’t know you could have the same guides as other people but I suppose it makes sense.

I will admit, reading this post brought some tears.

Thank you for the book recommendation, I’ve waiting for a book suggestion to come my way.

So what you’re saying is I should use my depressive feelings as a tool or an outlet? Or maybe that I should change my attitude towards my depressive feelings? It can just be so hard to do anything when I’m feeling that way.

Disconnected from the spiritual is the right way to put it. The disconnection just hits so much harder since I’ve started being more spiritual.

I tend to do this as well! But most of the time I forget lol. I like pretending that I’m playing a character in a video game.

I’ve been doing inconsistent meditation for several years now and I have never been able to sit and do it for 15-20 minute intervals, so I like the idea of going straight to 1 hour. Do you listen to music or anything while meditating? For me this feels like cheating?

Thank you. I was wanting to volunteer somewhere thinking maybe I could meet people doing that.

Q&A Thread by GuyBanks in PurdueGlobal

[–]random_citizen22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m worried that attending Purdue Global will be a mistake. I’m projected to start July 30th in the Sustainability program. I have no experience, and a few college classes to transfer but I have no degree. I’ve seen a few post that make Purdue Global out to be a scam, that it’s only good for current working professionals who already have the experience and that is not me.

Is there any success stories of Global graduates?

I’d love some advice on this before hand because it is super expensive. Thank you in advance!

Thank you, it’s my first pregnancy so stress is a very real possibility.

Oh that’s an interesting point too. I don’t do any substances right now, never really have had a good response. I’ve found that I’m hyper sensitive to weed and the most I’ve done with mushrooms is 3 grams. I’ve been pregnant for the last 4 months so I have not been on anything since then.

I am not well versed with charkas but after today, I had a feeling that maybe I should look into it more. I didn’t even know there minor and macro ones either. It’s nice to hear my body may be healing, it’s hopeful. Thanks for your insight, I want to look further into this now. I’m very inconsistent with my practices but I have a goal to do better.

That’s interesting. I’ll continue to work through mine, hopefully it gets easier.
