Wow thanks for sharing your experience, this was enlightening and inspiring! I definitely relate to the YT addiction even though Ive been off social media for years, somehow learning things seems to justify it in my head. But I am curious what I might be avoiding or missing out on without it... so I'm going to do this challenge too!
Old soul in a young body, you're starting to remember, and yet you already so well articulate matters that the vast majority don't even comprenhend in their whole life. Thank you, and I wish you a beautiful journey !
I lost myself for years by never looking at my preferences. Don't recommend it. If you don't know your own preferences, you'll live in some one else's.
“Life brought me here” I got chills. I was a teenager when trials of life prompted me to pursue truth via spirituality. Wishing you a beautiful journey
Such a beautiful reflection from such a beautiful soul ◡̈ I see you have Journey of Souls, maybe you'd enjoy the work of Ainslie MacLeod as well if you aren't already familiar. I have been diving into his work about past lives and soul ages and types, and the fears we bring into our current incarnations from previous ones. He says all of our fears come from past lives and we can release them just by acknowledging where they came from and reminding our soul that "that was then and this is now." Releasing the fears help us advance on our soul mission and not have to keep reincarnating to work on the same issues. Anyway, thanks for your video and reflection, I've also been fascinated by and experimenting with surrender. It's been a ride!
Good eye! I haven’t read Journey of Souls yet 🫣 but my mom LOVES it! Thanks for the recommendation, im def interested in learning more about soul & reincarnations. Releasing fears makes a ton of sense
When I say I am happy, I do feel happy and feel it in my body. When I feel it without saying it, yes that is a different experience, maybe a bit more amplified, but similar.
Thanks for sharing your experience, a lot of the subconscious brain is filled with thoughts we pick up on from childhood and the brain remembers negative thoughts more, at least mine does lol so now i've been practicing tuning into my body more than the mind, feels better and I've realized thoughts are just that thoughts, you don't have to believe them. I like that you pointed out it helps to speak and journal thoughts, that way you're still processing your experiences and letting them go instead of holding on to them. I've been doing a daily check in too and recording my thoughts. Anyway, thanks for sharing your thoughts and choosing to help those around you. I'm guessing this is what life presented to you at this moment 😉hehe
thanks for watching! glad to hear journaling is helping you out :) yea, i think even more than “life presenting itself” - it’s about what our subconscious chooses to bring to our awareness. Bc really you can make anything out of any situation 🤔 fascinating, & i def wanna explore more how it links back to childhood
Exactly the same. Its deeply affected my life away from anything anyone would consider "normal". Man, I just want to be happy and at peace. I'm 35 and have spent most of my life single because while I'd love a relationship, my peace and happiness shatters within weeks. All the sudden it seems like whoever I am with loses independent thought or function without me, depending on me to decide things like what WE are eating. Fuck I don't care, I'll eat what I want, if you don't want THAT, eat what you want. You'd think that traffic would run smoother with this "base desire" everyone seems to have. You'd think the desire would be for traffic to flow smoothly, instead it appears to be "no, ME FIRST". Pathetic. Glad I don't behave that way.
Such a great video, you're so engaging! I've been thinking about the creation vs. consumption idea for a while now, thanks for giving me a boost to become more consistent with journaling :)
Hi! 21 years old guy here. I have no idea how youtube recommended your video, but I'm glad! It was very thought provoking, I sent one like right away, wish I could send multiple! :D I had this problem of social insecurity a long ago and I remember that all I did was changing some habits, trying out new hobbies and changing how I see myself, because you can't change others + you can only really change so much about yourself, beacuse you can constantly fool yourself. (very well said in the video) AND just because you "changed", you will still have to face the same difficult situations in life sometimes. I think it really is about true self love, like when you are your best friend, like when you love your own very weird habits and stuff, BUT you can properly judge your weaknesses. Really liked the video, I wish your youtube career will help you love yourself more! ; )
hey, happy youtube is recommending the right people! 100% agree, every "social skills" video on RU-vid is focused on tactics, not the underlying problem. good luck on your journey as well 🙏
Hey Jamie, I am also a 20 year old girl, studying environmental science and am also coming to realisation that one needs to heal their mind before taking actions regarding external life (friends, university careers). At the end of the day you will always be you, so if you love yourself you will be at peace. This is such early 20s core. Also you're gorgeous.
This is so sweet I love this video so much I actually just started a RU-vid channel as well so it’s so refreshing to see someone joining at the same! I’m so excited to see we’re this journey will take you!
It's nice to see new faces on the platform following their own path like you said "make the type of content you want to see." As well as refreshing to see someone with a similar frame of mind and at a similar stage in their life take that leap and put themselves out there. I've had that same idea and been on the fence for too long, to see you kick off your journey like this inspires me to take that step as well. I'm here for the ride and i wish you all the best luck on your journey forward :)
CONGRATULATIONS ON FINALLY UPLOADING. I love this, and I just subscribed. All the best with your journey and I’m looking forward to your content. Happy to be here! MEGA LOVE!!! 🧡
Ive been journaling now since around 2019 and its always fun to see someone else doing that same hobby. If you need some ideas for some future content, I would love to see some journaling exercises that you do. I hope RU-vid goes well for you. I will be here for the journey 👍
:D I'm glad you're finally doing something your passionate about, imperfect dreams should be talked about more, I really liked the angle you view it from.
