Friends welcome to Day 4 of the #30daymentalchallenge. If you’re just joining us you can find the exercise linked in the bio. It’s never too late! Yesterday, Day 3, was, for me, an MF. Maybe it was for you too? It’s natural... 1/4 Image
2/4 We are invested in greatness and not in what is always an easy or steady road. This is necessary. No friction, no refinement. Keep Eden. I’ll take the road of hard necessity. Today our task is to renew our focus with bounding energy.
3/4 When dwelling on the past think only of that which proved fortifying and advancing. When thinking of the present set your focus on progressive, productive elements. When thinking of the future allow every reasonable ambition to be in reach.
4/4 And remember: change one element and you change everything. That is life’s symbiosis. You have more power than you realize. Wishing you all good things: -M- ⚡️🧷✊ Pic is a still by Jacqueline Castel's insanely great video of @uniform_nyc's "Dispatches from the Gutter." #PMA

Friends, good morning from the Lower East Side and welcome to Day 6 of the #30daymentalchallenge. Join any time: link in bio and all commentary linked to hashtag. I hope today proves very clarifying because I want to make a point that often gets lost in the culture... 1/7 Image
2/7 of New Age, recovery, and alternative spirituality. There is no schism—at least in this program—between the spiritual search and Rx drugs or other modalities of treatment. I believe in availing yourself of all devices that authentically help you. To summarily turn away...
3/7 from a pill or any “mainstream” treatment is to reject a doorway that could help. I want to be clear about this: I take an SSRI. It isn’t for everyone. But it’s proven a help to me. And I trust you to make informed decisions about your own needs. Without anyone else’s...

Good morning all and welcome to Day 5 of the #30DayMentalChallenge. For anyone just joining us (and you can join anytime) it is linked in bio and all commentary is linked to the hashtag. Today’s theme is paradox. Embrace it. One of the key markers of maturity... 1/7 Image
2/7 in the spiritual and ethical search is the ability to sustain paradox. There is no “one ingredient” or one magic pill that will deliver us. (Or if there is I embrace that, too.) Sometimes, in fact, we are drawn in directions that appear divergent. That is wholly natural...
3/7 Do not feel compelled to sync every act or to explain away contradictions, either within or without. For example, our #30DayMentalChallenge is about psyche and focus. But I also believe ardently in outward action especially as it involves your safety and wellbeing...

Good morning and welcome to Day 3 of the #30daymentalchallenge. More people continue to join (a movement?) and you can participate anytime. A link appears in the bio and all commentary is connected to the hashtag #30daymentalchallenge The greatest barrier facing us... 1/6
2/6 these 30 days is habit. Habit is neither good or bad in itself but it is self-conditioned or automatized behavior that can feel as palpable and needful as drawing breath. There are habitual dimensions to negative emotions. Watch very carefully for the manner in which you...
3/6 subtly derive a sense of relief, thrill, or excitement from anger and resentment. These emotions and their attendant bodily effects can be habitual and even addictive. Expressing anger, resentment, or bitterness can feel like a release. It can even feel euphoric...

Good morning from the Lower East Side and welcome to Day 2 of the #30daymentalchallenge. Still lots of time to join us (or join any time)—link in bio. To address a few questions: 1) You need only hand copy the quoted passage in the article—and sign it with the pledge... 1/6 Image
2/6 2) Do not worry about slips. Wholly natural and necessary. If you don’t skip you aren’t doing it for real. Don’t worry and just keep going. 3) #PMA doesn’t mean not caring. Live your life our loud—but with determinative thinking. For these 30 days we don’t drift;...
3/6 we determine our mentality. And fight for what’s right—including human dignity and democracy. 4) The past: we’ve all suffered. These 30 days are dedicated to focusing on what is forwarding and productive. As a great teacher once observed: “The past controls the future...
