Who are you people trying to convince?
In a couple of weeks you'll be back to your usual pseudo-Buddhist stagnation, with dwindling interest. Good luck with that.

It seems as if you take peverse pleasure in criticising and finding fault with things around here. If there is nothing to your liking, why do you keep coming back, I wonder? Is it just attention seeking?
You know where the door is, if you want to leave. Nobody's forcing you to stay.

You are the one who keeps coming back, not me. Why don't you retire, and let somebody else take over?

Re: Wim Hof - Feel the Cold and do it Anyway

@Kerome said:
Just was in the cold shower, briefly, I just like the feel of my cold body. Going to do a little WH breathing.

I have to say, I did a little Vipassana before the Wim Hof breathing, and I thought the combination did me a lot of good.

Yes, interestingly, I also do different "styles" of breathing throughout the day. It's quite extraordinary how a short period of focus on something as simple as breathing out, and breathing in, can calm the mind, and release the tension. I think everyone should breathe, actually.
