if only the only tweets we heard were the crickets... I myself am newly addicted to twitter, go figure! i am always a rubber neck for a car crash so it is no wonder I got so roped into the carnage. Breathwork is my go to balancing method; it does wonders to activitate the intuitive mind in it’s breadth of vision in favor of the reductive tunnel vision of the rational left brain mode our world currently favors. thanks for holding down the social media fasting and sharing your experience🙌

I love the way you write.

Godspeed on your spiritual quest (which I think is innate and inevitable in all existence).

I met Ram Dass and spoke with him at a lecture a lifetime ago.

He recounted a story about his Indian guru who was asked about psychedelic drugs. The guru intimated that with these drugs one could visit with Christ. The guru then indicated that it would be better to become the Christ than to visit.

Thanks for sharing this, Chloe. I can relate to much of it. While I see some value in Twitter, I jumped ship on it years ago, and reading what you wrote brought me right back to the room I was in when I did it. I get it. To your point about cold showers, I recently installed an ice bath in my backyard that is serving me well. The perfect compliment to that, which I've been doing for a couple years now, is breathwork. The Wim Hof Method (which is basically breathing exercises and cold exposure), if you're not familiar, is a great introduction to all that. I do this and other breathing exercises multiple times a day and it's like magic every time. The proof is in the pudding, of course. So here's a basic guided breathing tutorial, should you care to try it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tybOi4hjZFQ
