Great comments and input , thank you!
My wife and I both sleep with weapons beside Us.
My sword is in a sheathe so it would require Me to pick the sword up and unstrap it before It would be dangerous. This would require Me To be fully awake, so there is no risk of me accidentally hurting someone well Asleep.

Its really no secret good diet and exercise + a clear mind will make you a much much happier person.
But people are fat and fucking lazy so they'd rather have McDonalds for dinner then sit at a computer and whine on the internet that they're depressed

Thats how I know I have some amount of OCD. My brother says this also manifests in my tendency to make detailed lists and plans, such as in my "project mastermind" thread, my "magic keys to everything" thread and this current thread.


See this is what I'm talking about. I just know you have a spreadsheet somewhere detailing all your supplements, spiritual practices etc. Or like a white board with some kind of chart on it.
Your enthusiasm for your passions does come across as somewhat manic, though, so I could see where ModestMouse would guess bi-polar. I don't really ever see you on a depressive side of a cycle though, so it doesn't really seem to fit. It really is awesome that you are so dedicated to your health and well-being and you seem really aware of what does and does not work for your, so you're on a good path for yourself.
One of the biggest elements to my own health & well being has been sorting out what is the ideal diet for my constitution. It's taken me YEARS of experimentation to figure out that I really need more animal protein and less grain/starch in my diet. I'm conflicted over this because of factory farming, but I'm doing my best to buy the the best that I can afford.
Talking about addictions, I think sugar is one of the absolute WORST drugs out there, and the whole fucking world is addicted.

The cheapest health food on earth is bones and organs. Beef liver is one of the most nutrient dense foods on the planet. I would be surprised if you didnt feel a significant boost in vitality eating it daily
As with you moon. I strongly suggest looking into it. Organs are really the bee's knees

IMO even with healthy diet and lifestyle one can be depressed. Life events that you cant control often drain your energy. It can get very frustrating

Moonshoe said: Yes my body also requires lots of animal protein for optimum health and happiness However I try my hardest to avoid factory farmed meat I emphasize elk, bison, venison, freshwater fish and moose. These meats are far superior ethically, nutritionally and Taste wise. If you can't get this look for free range meat, grass fed beef and ethically sourced seafood, and Turkey is in my opinion superior to Turkey.
I agree that sugar is one of the absolute worst addictions and one of the most dangerous and harmful drugs.

When I eat elk, venison etc I feel so Euphoric and energized it's almost like a drug. Moose in particular is amazing.
Did you mean that turkey is superior to chicken?
Red meat from cows does not sit well with me but venison and elk most certainly does. I wish I could get it more readily where I live. Maybe more available once I move back up North! I have never has moose, but I would try it if given the chance....

As someone who had dinosaur chicken nuggets(I'm a grownup, dammit) for dinner, I'm going to heed this thread. I'm feeling pretty good physically(and mentally) lately, but I can't even imagine how much better I'll feel when I start eating clean again.

My guns and ammo are locked up, no chance of that.
And Buddhism and a warrior ethic are not in any way contradictory.
Buddhism and the Samurai have a long association for example.
Being a Buddhist does not imply that one is unwilling or unable to defend ones life or loved ones.
Martial arts is just as much a core part of my spiritual practice as meditation and yoga.

That was inspiring. That's the exact lifestyle I try to follow, sadly there is no martial arts class around my hometown but I try to exercise by doing weightlifting and bodyweight conditioning.

This. Meditation is complementary to yoga. Yoga is complementary to weights/bodyweight. Exercise is complementary to food/diet. Meditation is complementary to sleep and diet. IMO/IME they all are basically just interconnected.

I agree completely.
Both yoga and martial arts (shaolin Kung fu) were developed by dedicated monks as a way to prepare the body for long periods of meditation and to allow them to sit in meditation for long periods of time without their bodies atrophying.
Both Yoga and Martial arts are both a form of moving meditation in there own right, as well as a way to prepare the body for meditation.

also, I think certain martial arts were used so that monks could defend themselves as they travelled long distances

Hmm. Ok, I can see it fits into your world view. And I agree being able to defend your loved ones can be part of a Buddhist way of life (as far as I know these things). Still, having a weapon next to my bed would be too much for me. It would posses me in a way that I would find disturbing. The mere option of aggressive action, however defensive or channeled, would not allow me to relax to the point I need.
It could very well be that there is something lacking in my more pacifist way of life. My only weapons to defend my loved ones would be reason and love. These may well not be enough in some situations. I don't have all the answers. But having weapons near me when I rest would disturb my regenerative balance.
It's all in the past now, but know that I have a history of aggressive outbursts and uncontrollable behavior. I guess I'm still afraid of what I can do to my surroundings. Bless my meds, I'm a peaceful guy now...
Love, Hanz.
