It is ACTUALLY happening

Posted on May 20th, 2019

Yesterday while falling asleep I had the following realisation, that lingers too today: I will not have a second go at my lifeI will never live anyone else's lifeI will never get the chance to review my lifeThere is NO OTHER perspective for me than the...

'I have a life'

Posted on May 6th, 2019

Another Vipassana course, this time three days. Was awful to sit it through, I thought "never again". But something happened there, and as usual: the implications come only gradually, during the days afterwards. One thing that I noticed happening when...

Another one bites the dust

Posted on January 10th, 2019

So another relationshit is over, or rather another romantic disappointment happened. But something just occurred to me.. it seems that after Vipassana there is a theme that was not present before. Or do I just want to believe in it? First of all, abou...

Long term effects of Vipassana course

Posted on August 9th, 2018

I'm writing it from a standpoint of a really lazy individual who was unable to maintain Vipassana practice longer than 1 day after the 10 days course. Yet, still.. I do believe after 1 year I continue to experience long term effects of that 10 days cou...

Vipassana 1 day refresher course

Posted on September 17th, 2017

I did just 1 day course as I don't have 10 days that I can take off. It was a lot of effort and travel but.. Damn can't I do what I want?:D What came up to the surface was little child's sadness out of disappointment and a lot of anger. More or less l...

Vipassana field test

Posted on April 17th, 2017

Provided you're used to silence, cleaningness and order. After attending Vipassana 10 day course try India. Or south Italy. Notice the shitload of unpleasant body sensations. Try not to react with getting irritated nor with suppressing the irritation. ...

The narcissist in me

Posted on April 16th, 2017

When I read the diagnostic criteria of narcissism I do not see it so clearly, but when I watch the videos about narcissism I find many of the mentioned characteristics in myself. I'm not even sure if they strictly belong to narcissism or maybe just to ...

Q1 Checkpoint

Posted on April 10th, 2017

Let's make a checkpoint, a summary of the progress I made since December 2016. I have learned that: I am a classical codependent and this causes so much stress in my life, prevents me from knowing who I am and what I want; I have been always strugglin...

Emotional Freedom Techniques EFT - my beginnings

Posted on February 20th, 2017

I found out about it only recently - methods how to release emotions that we have the tendency to suppress, and this suppressing is creating situations in our lives that constantly bring those negative emotions back. Acting the emotion out is also a fo...

Vipassana

Posted on January 23rd, 2017

Vipassana mediation is a technique discovered by Buddha. I understand it as a way of deep self discovery on a subconscious level. There are 10 day rigorous courses all over the world when one can learn it. I have just completed one. I will not write th...
