I used take other forms of Magnesium, but recently found Glycinate has made a massive improvement in my sleep.

Best sleep I've had in years.

I should add that while I'm not specifically a "Jazz Musician", I play piano , and utilise substitutions, extensions etc. :)

Its the same kind if vibe as when you hang out with certain Jazz musicians / fans and they start discussing chord substitutions, extensions, etc.

Same. Just switched due to de-googling.

 

For some reason Goodstar app is not installing (despite permissions) and I'd like to display widgets on my Lockscreen.

Is there any way around this?

TIA

I taught in Yoga Studios for a while, as well as smaller, private classes. I facilitated something called Yoga Nidra which is a form of meditation.

I had a large amount of positive feedback and people apparently had all kinds of amazing experiences - but quite often - particularly during the times at Yoga Studios, I was not in a good space myself generally, and the very thing I Ioved doing became more like any old humdrum, regular day job.

On a 'bad' day, in my mind, I would imagine a newcomer visiting the class and saying something negative at the end of a session - despite this never happening. :)

In my experience, all pressure us created by a judgmental mindset (which is the default setting for the human mind!) and a lot of the 'pressure' is actually a matter of perception - as is everything.

Of course, a lot of situations are extremely challenging, but the only thing we really have dominion over is our perception of these situations.

Changing one's perception though, can take years of practice. Both our own conditioning , and that of the 'human collective' influencing us, runs deep.

However, even a little regular practice can evidence tangible results in small, incremental ways.

Here's most of my music to date. Most of it's free / pay what you want.

Thanks for listening.

 

Has anyone tried this - or any aspect of it?

"Mindfulness is definitely in fashion these days. People everywhere report that it has changed their lives, and the scientific research on the practice is booming. But an interesting change is happening in the world of mindfulness. A different type of mindfulness – nondual mindfulness – is growing in popularity. Furthermore, trustworthy scientific people (like Sam Harris) are making incredible claims about it. They are saying it is superior to conventional mindfulness, that it gives you access to a profound form of happiness that is available at will, and even that it is synonymous with spiritual awakening and/or enlightenment! They also claim that this form of awakening can be learned."

P.S. Not 100% sure whether Sam Harris is a "Trustworthy, scientific person" or not. :)

A very well written piece in an accessible style (which frankly, makes a change for this type of article).

Hi there. Nice to meet you. I'm new here to, and have been at the "Nondual Thing" for about 25 years, and I'm still a novice 😊

So glad to find this space after failing to find many like-minded people on Mastodon. I subscribed to the Nonduality sub on Reddit for a while though.

Thanks for setting this up!
