The one commonality of pretty much all great philosophy and religion is this: the phenomenal world we see is just the tip of the iceberg, a fraction of True reality
At best, it's temporally true, at worst, it's a complete dream like fabrication
Truth and liberation comes from seeing through this illusion.
Taking the red pill and waking up from the Matrix.
Stepping outside of Truman's world.
But I don't think that liberation is going to come from anything external and physical that changes...
I think it comes entirely from going the other way...
Intensely studying your consciousness and figuring out who you really are.
Changing your habits and completely restructuring your life to ascend in consciousness and transcend the world instead of succumbing to its gravitational suffocation.

Birth control has been a disaster for women's health.
Usage is associated with:
autoimmune
depression
suicide
infertility
gut issues
All for what? Preventing pregnancy which can only occur 5 days out of the month...
Yes you read that right.
Most women are not even told that they can only get pregnant 5 days out of each month and this can be managed totally naturally
But instead, they're prescribed birth control like it's skittles. Most women are never even told about the risks of taking it
This is indicative of a problem with society at large...a distrust for the natural rhythms and intuition of our body and a disconnection from the cosmos around us.
Did you know that most women with a healthy cycle menstruate with the moon?
There is a crisis of masculinity, destroying young boys.
But it's going to hurt high status women just as much.
I believe we're about to go through a marriage apocalypse...and there are about to be a lot of very unhappy, highly successful woman.
When women date, they tend to prefer men who earn more money & are higher status than them.
High status, beautiful women never had a problem with this because the male dominated, masculine work force produced lots of high earning men.
But over the last 10 - 20 years that's changed.
Young adult men today are falling behind.
Right now, 50% more women are slated to graduate from college than men. And then men that do graduate, very often have low testosterone, no purpose, and terrible habits.
A keto diet helped me and has helped 10s of thousands of people.
But nobody is talking about the risks of staying in ketosis for a long time.
I now think that long term keto is a BAD idea for most people.
Let me explain...
First, I want to be clear...for people in a highly pathological state, ketosis may be able to help them. A strict, zero carb, carnivore diet is still a great elimination diet....I am not writing this for these people.
I am writing this article for people that feel like they have somewhat of a grip on their health & and trying to figure out what to eat going forward.
I don't think a keto diet will kill you, necessarily, but I now think that there are some dangers to doing it long term.
We seem to have completely forgotten that a quality diet entails more than just macronutrients or "cutting out carbs"...
Nutrients and minerals are critical to health & most people are deficient in many of them.
Here are some common deficiencies...
Vitamin A retinol: skin health, steroid hormone production
Zinc: immune system, gut health...
Copper: ATP synthesis and iron recycling
Magnesium: over 400 enzymes, including relaxation & de-stressing
B1: neurotransmitters & converting carbs to fuel
B2: converting fats to fuel & methylation
B3: NAD production
B6: amino acid metabolism and methylation
B7: skin, hair, nails, energy production
B9: DNA methylation & cell division
B12: mood & cognitive function
Choline: neurotransmitter synthesis
