  1. Paleo diet

    I have a post in my journal and to sum it up my wife and I feel incredible after switching to this way of eating. Its not like we ate junk before,all organic ect ,but the gluten was making us less than excellent and gave my wife health problems that immediately cleared up after going caveman. It is ammusing hearing peoples reaction upon informing them you dont eat bread.One of my wifes friends asked in a sincere manner "well what DO you eat"ummm food. I strongly recommend to anyone interested try going without grain,potato,dairy and sugar for a couple of days and your energy will surge. a paleo blog http://www.arthurdevany.com/meals/
  2. you could do what I do after sex and hug your knees while rocking back and forth in the shower...... I'm kidding
  3. I like soma.fm very much...groove salad and secret agent
  4. Cultivation question

    "what does a man do when he's got too much and doesn't feel depleted after ejaculation?" simple.....work out - strength training/running
  5. The Empty Vessel-Daoist Philosophy&Practice

    I saw the summer edition in B&N yesterday....www.abodeDao.com e-mail [email protected]
  6. Looking for Help....

    "I cant control it" - negative self programming. As far as meditation I recommend trying Hemi-sync with positive affirmations at theta state. I found this to be quite helpful and I have had depression off and on for 20 years,formally depressed most of the time now only sporadically.
  7. Eating Flesh Pros and Cons

    Those animals are carnivore's not omnivore's like us human animals....that is an important distinction,also a croc is basically a dinosaur. People eat bad food everyday including vegetarians so if the vegans and veggies want a crusade it should be against un-healthy foods not just meat. And I would also point out that the longest lived people only have one thing in common and its not food...its a positive mental outlook and family/community involvement.
  8. I like raw,organic superfood smoothies.almond milk,hemp powder,flax powder,coconut oil,cacao nibs,spirulina,raw honey,acai and blueberries
  9. Eating Flesh Pros and Cons

    I have known many,many vegetarians and this has been my experience as well for the most part with the ones who are in it for moral and health reasons.
  10. Eating Flesh Pros and Cons

    I must have a poor sense of smell. In all of my years training in grappling I have never smelled anyone that had an aroma anything near bread,butter,cheese,onions. I think armpit funk that smells of garlic is a coincidence.Fresh sweat is basically odorless...its not until the bacteria get to work that it might smell of garlic. If anything I think Americans reek of "product"...shampoo,lotion,cologne,anti-bacterial soap,scented laundry soap...ect
  11. Rooting?

    its all biomechanics IMO...let me walk up and put my hip against your hip,not my hand on your shoulder,...you WILL move
  12. A Blistering topic

    It can only be 2 things...wrong shoes and/or improper alignment. Most people pronate both feet but usually the right foot more. Stand up straight then look down at your feet.Do your middle toes line up with your knee???If not then there is your answer.Do your shoes have an elevated heel and lots of padding??if yes then not good either.
  13. The Gate of life

    You might try simply rolling against the wall with a tennis ball to increase awareness and circulation...works for me.
  14. I dont know about their system but through my keen powers of observation I noticed something....WORST WEBSITE DESIGN EVER
  15. Dream work makes me lose too much sleep...seems to train me to be in a meditative state when I need to be sleeping.
  16. Michael Winn, Enlightenment, Monkey Mind

    "If people want to hold me up to 'higher standard' and single me out, there is really nothing I can do about it." Ok I'll pile on...no one is holding you to a higher standard only the generally accepted standard of discourse on this message board. No one is singling you out...you do quite well enough with that one by yourself. "I never dreamed that I would attract the kind of attention I sometimes do and quite frankly, it's not something I really care a whole lot about. " IMO your posts are provocative (its why I am replying) so why be surprised when attention is given.
  17. Got Milk?

  18. Got Milk?

    Milk is repulsive to me and when I stopped drinking it my chronic sinus infections that I had for years stopped. I became lactose intolerant in my mid twenties and when I quit I was like "oh it s not normal to be nauseous in the morning?COOL! no more feeling pukey at the gym and i thought it was from exertion."

  20. Wing Chun?

    hand chasing,no head movement,poor footwork...slap fighting IMO muay thai is superior in every way
  21. I like ocean breathing to chill but for a nice buzz I really like the breath work section of Intu-flow.
  22. Happy Equinox!

    *in thick southern accent* "You talk funny... you aint from roun here are ya." I lived in Myrtle Beach for a couple years so I know what the inland folks are like. Happy Spring!!
  23. Typical Whacko

    Hi and welcome I noticed you said that you feel old at 34 and your body has taken a beating. Let me be the first to recomend a joint mobility program called Intu-Flow from R-MAX. I cant tell you how amazing it is.....HIGHLY recomended.
  24. bjj drills, lifts, exercises, etc.

    FlowFit and Intu-Flow had the most carry over benifit for me....especially Flowfit. Other recomended DVDs that I dont have personal experience with are Stephan Kestings Grappling Drills and Gynastica Natural.
