It’s time to clean your house. What have you done today to improve your mental/physical/spiritual wellbeing user?
Modern society is to blame for there being so many people who don't deserve to live. Most people in the West used to harden as they grow on their own, like anywhere else. Now without effort you can remain indefinitely infantile due to our decadence. There were always outliers that became like this throughout history, but now the general masses have succumbed to this condition. There is no longer a rite of passage into adulthood, you can be sheltered and live comfortably. This is de-evolution. Everyone has a dandy-ol time being a degenerate well into their 50s. Constant entertainment, pre-cooked meals and pornography has robbed us of our man-hood.
Realize that to live is to struggle. Really internalize this truth in your being and actions and when possible spread it to others that you care about. In the end the Natural Order will always prevail. Nature is inherently fascist. The modern world is a world that goes completely against nature and the results are telling. It's tearing itself apart. Nevertheless you as an individual can always choose to go against the flow and struggle and persevere while the rest of society rots and withers away. It's not an easy path, but you go on because you know that you are in the right and that in the end you will be vindicated.
The modern world is so self-destructive half the battle is just weathering the storm until the whole edifice has degenerated so much that we can rise and deal the final blow. Live to live your life correctly and that will bring happiness to yourself and those around you.
Stop drinking ALL soda/artificial juices and stop eating junkfood. Stop buying super-market meals and try to grow your own vegetables that aren't infected with pesticides and plastics. Healthy and economic, aswell as peaceful. Till the soil like your great grandfather did. Try to drink mostly water or coffee/tea with little to no sugar added. Purchase meat and produce from local producers that you know personally. A big reason why western men’s sperm count has gotten lower is because we do less outdoor jobs like we used to 50 years ago, which means less sun exposure and less Vitamin D production.
Thus we should grow our own food, get outside more, and not rely on commercial food producers. Over specialization creates a society without purpose for many and too much interdependence. Cities are inherently self-destructive because they are unnatural. Multiple cities reaching more than hundreds of thousands in population did not exist prior to the mid-19th century. The countryside would remain unaffected in the long run if a future collapse occurs. 99% of our history has not been like this with populations concentrated like ants and living like parasites. It’s a very volatile mix and you do not want to be a part of it. There’s a reason liberals are concentrated in these shitholes.
While you don't have to go 110% /innawoods/ right now, it's always good to be in a state of relative independence, and in a small closely knit community. It is such values and societal composition that will survive a collapse and reclaim what is left once the dust has settled. Hopefully the kikes will be gone with it, their degenerate little empire burned to ashes.

Remember, you don't need all the latest work-out equipment, supplements or drugs to get a naturally fit look. All you need is natural movement and you'll achieve the body you're MEANT to have as the Homo-Sapien male. You have a tiled floor? Jump from one end to the other. A fence outside? Climb over. You have a lot of work on your computer? Put it on a shelf so you have to stand and thus better your posture.
Also, set goals for yourself. See if you can lift sandbags that weigh up to 80kgs eventually. Carry it on your shoulders, throw it as far as you can, attempt to eventually lift it with nothing but a single grip. Get used to being able to punch something aswell. Do NOT be a limp wristed fageutte who would cry if he gets hit. Be able to defend yourself.
Also anons, move out of the cities and learn a trade. Find a nice girl in church, start a family.
While I do use my computer like now, I try not to make it part of who I am. We are constantly stimulated by technology. This is unnatural since we used to be able to just sit for hours and reflect, now we get anxious if there is no internet connection. To be able to relax and just think is a form of "meditation" I suppose, but it’s nice to do it. I have a garden I go sit in during the late afternoon and just gaze out on the nearby mountains. I don't think about anything in particular, I let my mind wander. Really healthy and fulfilling.
The vast majority of things that modern society has brought us have severe consequences. The only "good" things it has brought are directly or indirectly related with making life painstakingly easy and almost meaningless or just increasing world population to insane levels. The kikes would have us be dependent on them soon; once post-industrial society hits and we become unproductive slaves to the state for our monthly food ration.

>”Lmao nothing matters, I just want to enjoy pleasures in life, no higher being exists, no greater purpose in life exists”
To atheists/nihilists lurking the thread:
Your consciousness is the only thing verifiable in the entirety of Existence, since a consciousness not recognizing itself is a paradox. It's Descartes' cogito, and it's the basis for absolutely everything, and I say EVERYTHING, philosophical and scientific that can follow.
Then we have Parmenide's Existential paradox. If a thing ''is'', it cannot ''not'' be, for then we'd have no basis whatsoever to even contemplate it. Furthermore, saying that something came out from nothing and will go back to nothing is equally illogical, since nothing is logically impossible. So we have to assume that everything always was, and always will be, albeit not in the same form.
So what happens then? What happens is that your consciousness, your capacity to synthesize and accumulate information, or what is commonly known as the soul, whether it was inside your body or completely separate (the question is utterly irrelevant here) always was, and always will be, logically, which leads us to believe that there was a Before as well as there will be an after for every verified consciousness (i.e. you as a the observer and synthesizer of this text), there is an afterlife, and there was a before-life.
The question remains, however, as to what that afterlife is. Equally interesting is the question of where consciousness comes from. And this is where philosophy lets religion take the torch.
I'm really getting bored of those pseudo-sophisticate ultra-materialists that seem to be everywhere these days. It seems funny to me how so many smart people insist that their capacity for logic and reason can somehow reach outside the bounds of our existence, explain it in a meaningful way, even though the very terms and concepts they use to, oh so authoritatively, state "idiot, when you're dead you're dead, see?!" have been invented in minds very much created by the very phenomena they so glibly dismiss as irrelevant. "Consciousness? Pff, a hallucination of the brain! Qualia? Ephemera! There's meat and dirt, and that's IT, and you're a fool, and probably some sort of weirdo, if you think otherwise."
The vehemence with which many of those people defend the idea that they're ultimately nothing, completely irrelevant and futile, makes me think that there's more to it than just pure calculation and cold logic on their part, as most of them claim. People don't get so worked up over things just because they think they're true. Most aren't nearly that noble. They have some sort of emotional stake in the game.

>Are traps gay? a man in a dress is still a man user we call them tranvestites.
I'm gonna shill for Traditional Catholicism in here.
Just last Mass, our priest was discussing cultural marxism and the affect it has on today's youth and society.
We are the ONLY Christians to be on the SPLC list for "Anti semitism"
Whenever I attend mass, the only people ther are large white families, and always with infants. Some of the most gorgeous women I've seen, I've seen at Mass.
Compile that with the great Catholic scholars, St. Thomas Aquinas, etc. and you have an amazing culture of tradition and salvation.
Threadly reminder to anyone suffering from anxiety and overthinking - START MEDITATING. The problem of anxiety and overthinking is that it creates a Feedback Loop From Hell - you're thinking about thinking about thinking about thinking about thinking etc etc.
Forget all the soccermom shit about contorting yourself into a lotus pose - you'll have enough trouble sitting still on a chair. In Meditation, the pre-game is almost, if not more important than the process itself.
This system helped me turn my life around. TRUE Meditation is NOT about blanking out or feeling blissed out, so get ready for some intense reactions.

Self-improvement and taking care of oneself is incredibly important in order to make any sort of positive change in the world. Before we can know right from wrong, we must enrich ourselves spiritually. Before we can argue and criticize we must improve our mental knowledge of philosophy and history. Before we can take back our communities and countries, we must be in top physical condition.

If porn is so bad why isn't the government stopping it? Should we contact our lawmakers and congressmen to get porn banned or restricted? I feel like porn ruined my life since I accidentally stumbled upon it in the fucking 3rd grade on the families windows 95 computer. And porn seemed a taboo thing, now its like FUCK YEAH PORN!!!!! How do we stop this menace?

I don't like this approach if it is bad, which I'm not definitively saying, why should it be up to the government to regulate it? That's the household, the family, and society's job depending on the government is just handing over a bit more of those social freedoms

Noted friend.
One thing that brought me back to The Church was seeing the irreverence that Prots have during their service. How disgusting, it looked like a rave.
Yes! By all means, go and check it out. The churchgoers are very friendly and I am positive you will feel welcome there. The practices can be confusing at first, but I suggest reading up on Mass customs a little bit so you can follow along.
I'll keep you in my prayers lad.
Wonderful, I never get tired of seeing this posted. It's really strange being called a Christcuck all the time, and I know it is entirely because they misinterpret what Christ preaches.

It keeps people subdued and content. It is a weapon of control.
Do the excersises in this book under sections Method I (my personal favourite) and Method II. Then sit on a straight-backed chair opposite a thite wall and count every every time you breathe out until ten. Then start over. Concentrate on counting the breaths.
If your thoughts are too loud and intrusive, instead of counting the breaths, start humming the sound M or OM really deep and try to concentrate on that. Just MMMMMM like a motherfucker, make your diaphraghm and throat really vibrate,

sit comfortably anywhere, if you want it to feel more reverent and different.. try cross legged. set a timer on your phone for 20 mins.
close your eyes.
let all the le I'm so unique i can't stop my thoughts! thoughts come and go, they'll keep doing that for a while, treat them like a roommate that saunters in and leaves.
focus on your breathing...
thoughts come by, you are focusing on your breathing.
for a split second 8 minutes in you might realise you didn't think about those thoughts as much and your breath was all that existed, and the contrast between this FULL void of everythingness is actually pretty empowering.
light smirk.
thoughts come back, fuck I'm thinking rn
back to breath..
breathing
not even focused on breathing now, so deeply in this state
timer goes off..
eyes open. close all tabs.. open a window, smell the air.. the few thoughts that start to arise are full of clarity and aspects of your truest self. Decide you'll do this once a day.

Great thread guys, you are awesome. Let me share my situation:
>3 years ago, had steady job and nice girlfirend, we lived together >decided i had enough of the "boring life" and broke up with her and moved into my rehearsal room >smoked weed everyday for 10 years, but now it accelerated >stopped making music >suddenly i get hit with my lifes first and only panic attack >deep depression follows, loose my job >start smoking 24/7, i live near a drug dent so i would go there and pick up the scraps >fast forward 6 months, i get second panic attack >immediately move back at my moms >stopped smoking, started excising >started working small time with my uncle
life's really improving, but i still have a lot of emotional hangover from my mistakes. my ex just married some other guy, that bummed me out for some reason. i also have a debt i still dont have enough money to pay. im afraid to change my address out of fear of the debt collector, or maybe the police, as i don't have any control over how high it has become. I want to keep on improving and get out of this pickle, but anxiety of dealing with the stuff i messed up during this period holds me back. How do i become superman and start working on all the problems at once, not just one at a time?

Work overtime, save up enough money to take at least two weeks off. A month might be better. Get a lot of healthy food and some Advil for the caffeine withdrawal headaches and COLDTURKEY ALL DRUGS AND WAKE UP WITHOUT AN ALARM CLOCK.
It's gonna hurt at first but if you eat well, don't stress it and just let yourself fall asleep and wake up naturally WITH NEITHER DRUGS NOR ALARM CLOCKS your brain will reset itself.

You have to use the pain and stress you're experiencing now to get you to where you want to go instead of staying where you don't want to be. Once you get enough money working small time to get back on your feet you're gonna need to seek a full time job. I would also learn some form of investing while you're at it. Do anything you can right now to make sure paying off your debt is easier in the future.

then close your eyes... and focus on your breathing. and don't freak out if thoughts come in, but you'll start to learn that each thought is like a thread of information that you can choose to pursue/entertain or just focus on your breathing.
If i do the breath-counting, i personally prefer eyes open, and with mantra meditations it may help you to do it eyes closed at first to feel less awkward and really get into it.
Aiden Cook
Think of nothing but your breath. Into the belly, through the nostrils.
When your mind runs off with some imagining--and it will, just note it.
>"Thinking."
>"Thinking."
>"Thinking."
Eventually you'll get better at keeping the consciousness on the breath and fewer thoughts will intrude. Don't fight them, just note them. Let them pass. Do you stop ripples in a pond by throwing in more rocks to make counter-splashes? No. You wait.
