one benefit of psychedelic therapy (especially mdma) is that you tend to go in and make a clean slice and heal the wound all in a few hours rather than half-treating it weekly for five years

yeah he also doesn't say it's always rage, though he says it's rage like 90% of the time (next is sadness)

it's more like they have symptom X (eg back pain, low immune system, allergies etc) then have them find internal rage and express it and then see if they still have symptom X. I don't think the book goes as far as to say it causes literally all things (eg cancer, being hit by a car)

I'm confused why it requires recording people's qualia? Why can't you just use whether it fixed their symptoms like most medical studies

I'm basically positive it's more than 0% correct, so the question is where is it between 0% and 100%

if Sarno's theory that essentially all long term health problems are just pent-up rage is correct it feels like a general relativity caliber theory of health. Haven't seen any other doctor willing to make a theory as broad

i'd also compromise with 4 options + a non option that's always there

went to an apartment showing today. it was vacant except for 3 turtles in the bathtub left by the previous tenant. the realtor panicked at the water level in the bathtub (low) and quickly refilled it while another woman on the tour found a bag of turtle food and dumped all the tiny fish into the tub

it depends a lot on where someone is at and what their motivations for meditating are (feeling good, getting insight into how consciousness works, etc). My first 500 hours was kind of breath-meditation-done-badly and I don't know why I kept going with it. Why do you want to meditate?

bluesky feels jank but twitter feels evil (eg substack censorship) and jank is wayyy better than evil
