I’ve slowly been having a change of heart, dear readers. I used to be quite hedonistic, honestly. Everything was about pleasure, the next fix. Gradually I moved from the empty pursuit of constant stimulation toward a healthier, more moderate lifestyle, yet one where I was still intent on “allowing myself” to go against my higher …

Good Health as the Foundation of a Good Life
Society is sick. And I don’t mean society as an entity in itself, though it certainly is rotten to the core in many respects. I’m talking about the individuals that make up society. I would like to say that I’m referring to physical illness here, but to be honest I’ve begun to doubt that there …

Epiphany and Oblivion, Rinse, Repeat
Epiphany and Oblivion, Rinse, Repeat It’s time for a change. I can feel it in the air, in my bones. I’ve become soft. Complacent, even. After a period of superhuman strength, vibrant health, and sharp, clear awareness of my trajectory in life, I’ve inadvertently allowed myself to slide back into destructive tendencies. I think the …
Responsibility is Power
We must realize that responsibility is power. Deciding to take full ownership, unlimited responsibility for one’s own life and circumstances, is the most majestic decision a person can make. We’re raised to believe that responsibility is somehow a negative concept. “Who is responsible for this?!” the teacher would cry whenever a kid stepped out of …
How I Healed My Allergies for Good
Ever since I was a kid, I had allergies to all kinds of things. Pollen, cats, dogs, houseflies, dust. I also had something wrong with my digestion, and at various points in my life I thought I had gluten intolerance, lactose intolerance, intolerance to various fruit, etc. Although people generally don’t make much of a …
Fasting for Mental Health
I’ve been thinking a lot recently about how much my mental health has improved in the last few years. It may be obvious that during my period of intense illness I was an absolute mess mentally, but I had in fact been dealing with depression and anxiety since I was a child. Whatever the root …
Healing Paradigms
So many people are caught in the web of modern medicine. The pharma-industrial complex has burrowed itself deep into our collective subconscious, and it doesn’t want to let go. Freedom will never come to us from an external source, it needs to happen on an individual level. It may not come as a surprise to …
Fasting for Health, Clarity, and Inner Peace
Everything is going a mile a minute. It feels like society’s spinning, and it just goes faster and faster. It’s funny, sometimes you get lost in the insanity. Or maybe it’s not that funny. Regardless, there is a way to cut through the crap and get a glimpse of the true state of affairs. Fasting …

The Fasting-Focused Life
I discovered the immense power of fasting for healing in the summer of 2019, where I did several long fasts, the longest being ten days, along with loads of shorter fasts, interspersed with incredibly simple meals. At the start of that summer, I was a physical and mental wreck. I was dealing with various autoimmune …
Modern Health Dogma vs. Direct Experience
“Consult your physician” pretty much sums up the modern approach to health. Those three words are more important than they may seem, because apart from encouraging you to wholly shirk any responsibility you might have for your own health, it also gives weight to a very damaging, yet very common misunderstanding: That doctors actually know …
