  1. A study of meal timing and chronic disease in approximately 3,000 individuals over 60 found that, among those age 78 or older, the total number of chronic diseases (including cardiovascular and neuropsychiatric but not musculoskeletal diseases) increased with the longest interval between meals. This differs from findings of fasting benefits in younger populations.

    Sometimes it takes something to happen.

    For me, it was COVID. I already had the bones of inner peace, but I had never really had a reason to live from it.

    COVID was reason enough. I began fasting, learning breathwork and meditation, and taking seriously what I had spent a lifetime learning through A Course in Miracles.

    Somewhere in all of that, I found the peace I had always believed was there.

  14. SAM’S BODY MADE ME THINK
    ABOUT MY OWN 💎

    Watching Sam's video on YouTube today, I couldn't help noticing his weight.

    youtu.be/l6UNS8zFdGE?si=BwlIxb

    For an able-bodied person, he might simply look on the bigger side. But watching him struggle with movement, I found myself wondering how much additional work that weight must place on a disabled body already having enormous difficulty moving.

    I say that with enormous understanding and sympathy, because I had a major stroke myself and have lived with left-sided hemiplegia for decades now. I know how much effort an impaired body can require simply to get through an ordinary day.

    In my own case, losing a substantial amount of weight through daily fasting has changed my life.

    Moving is vastly easier. My balance has improved to the point where I can now stand still comfortably. I no longer feel so top-heavy and unstable. Walking is easier both uphill and downhill. I live in Hobart, so walking around this city provides plenty of opportunity to test that.

    I can dress myself again. For years, I needed my partner's help with much of my self-care and dressing. My body simply feels lighter and easier to carry around, and I can reach everything with my one usable hand.

    Breathwork has been equally important for me. I practise it every day, and together with fasting, it has changed the way I experience both my disability and my body.

    For me, breathwork has coincided with far less depression, clearer airways and a much more active mind. I write every day now, often using AI to help me turn my thoughts into words.

    I'm not suggesting either fasting or breathwork is a treatment for what happened to Sam. His medical situation was vastly more complicated than mine.

    I'm only speaking about what happened to me.

    When I was Sam's age, being disabled and overweight didn't seem particularly important. Nobody in the medical world said much about my weight, so I didn't either.

    By 50, carrying it was becoming challenging.

    By 65, it was crushing.

    That was when I began fasting.

    Becoming physically lighter has given me an extraordinary amount of my independence back.

    I'm still disabled. That hasn't magically disappeared.

    But at 70 now, I'm lighter, fitter and more independent. I can walk 10,000 steps in a day, dress myself, and move through the world far more easily than I could several years ago.

    For this disabled body, it has been life-changing.

  20. MAN DISCOVERS PORTION CONTROL
    LESS FOOD, SAME IDIOT 💎

    I’ve been fasting for several years now.

    Not because I possess extraordinary discipline.

    I just discovered that eating all day was making me fat, tired, and remarkably committed to the sofa.

    These days I eat breakfast and brunch within a 4-hour window each morning, usually between 7 am and 11 am.

    Then I fast for about 20 hours until the following morning.

    I didn’t leap heroically into that routine.

    It took me about two years to gradually reduce my eating window from 8 to 4 hours.

    Even my self-denial had to be introduced slowly.

    The surprising thing is that my body now seems to prefer it.

    I’ve lost weight without spending my life thinking about losing weight.

    I sleep deeply.

    Walking uphill is easier.

    Getting dressed is easier.

    My balance is better.

    And I can now turn over in bed without requiring the maneuvering space of a small container ship.

    People ask whether I get hungry.

    Usually, no.

    Sometimes I feel like eating, but I’ve discovered that hunger and the urge to put something in my mouth aren't necessarily the same thing.

    Apparently, my body is perfectly content.

    My mouth just misses having a full-time job.

    I’m not suggesting everyone should do this.

    I’m not a fasting expert.

    I’m merely an elderly man who finally stopped eating long enough to discover that he feels better when he isn’t constantly digesting something.

    For me, fasting has become less about food and more about freedom.

    Honesty is always best.

    Few have fasted for 20 days. Would you describe the #fast? Did you allow yourself to eat certain foods?

    There are different kinds of fasting. The following is an encouraging description of a fast that resulted in better thinking ability, with enhanced cognition. We both would like that, right? It is sometimes called the Daniel Fast, but it appears to be more like a #vegetarian diet....

  29. BREAKING:
    ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE CAUSES ORGANIC HYSTERIA 💎

    AI presses several #old human fear buttons at once.

    It threatens work, status, expertise, authorship, privacy, and the comforting #belief that intelligence belongs especially to human beings.

    AI also arrives through enormous companies people already distrust, so the fears are not entirely irrational.

    Then there is the fear of losing #control

    Most people understand a hammer.

    AI is also a #tool, but it is harder to see into. It changes quickly, sometimes gets things wrong with amazing confidence, and can sound far more capable than it really is.

    That uncertainty invites #projection

    But AI also exposes something uncomfortable.

    Much of human #activity was already formulaic.

    #writing

    #administration

    #advertising

    #opinion

    Even parts of #journalism and professional #commentary .

    When a machine can imitate these things, people are forced to ask how original they were in the first place.

    The sensible position is neither to worship AI nor panic about it.

    AI is a powerful human-made tool operating inside imperfect systems.

    It can help.

    It can deceive.

    It can save time.

    It can waste resources.

    It can widen access.

    It can concentrate power.

    It can produce brilliance and slop, often in the same hour.

    The question is not whether it is pure.

    Nothing in this world is.

    The question is whether it can be used consciously, critically, and without surrendering human judgement.

    A tool becomes dangerous when it is mistaken for an authority.

    It also becomes dangerous when fear prevents us from understanding it properly.

    AI presses several #old human fear buttons at once.

    It threatens work, status, expertise, authorship, privacy, and the comforting #belief that intelligence belongs especially to human beings.

    AI also arrives through enormous companies people already distrust, so the fears are not entirely irrational.

  34. ORDINARY GRACE 💎

    Brunch was good today.

    It was cleaning Sunday, so we had hamburgers at Grill’d.

    Afterwards, I walked from North Hobart into the city to meet Pete.

    Now I am home, fresh from breathwork, feeling grateful and wondering what I could possibly have done to deserve such abundance.

    Probably nothing.

    Deserving belongs to the world of deals and bargains.

    Be good, get rewarded.

    Work hard, earn the prize.

    But this does not feel like a prize.

    It feels like life simply giving itself.

    A clean house.

    A delicious hamburger.

    A long #walk through quiet #Hobart.

    Breath moving through my body.

    Peter.

    Two small white #pups.

    A #tranquil afternoon.

    Nothing dramatic.

    Nothing earned.

    Just ordinary #grace.

    Perhaps grace is not the great event we are waiting for.

    Perhaps it is this.

    Life is already here in all its glory, before we decide whether we deserve it or not...

  39. Hi, I'm Robin. I’m a New Zealander by birth and Tasmanian by choice. Between New Zealand and Tasmania, I've lived in the USA, the UK, India, Mexico, Europe, Asia, and mainland Australia.

    I was medically retired after a major stroke years ago. I now live quietly in Hobart with my partner Peter and our two small white balls of fluff, Billy and Phryne.

    My days include breathwork, regular fasting, writing, and A Course in Miracles. I rarely need to sit down and read the Course now. AI helps me bring its lessons directly into daily life and conversation.

    For me, AI plus ACIM has been a cosmic speed-up. It has helped me move through difficult concepts, question my own interpretations, and bring the Course out of the book and into actual practice. If you are a Course student who still finds some of it impenetrable, adding AI to the mix may be worth exploring. It changed everything for me.

    These practices are steadily increasing my peace and reducing my tolerance for bullshit.

    I write about ordinary life, human behaviour, AI, ageing, disability, stillness, and whatever remains after the performance ends.

  41. PAIN HAS A CALENDAR. 💎

    There is only now.

    That is not an idea to me anymore.

    Pain taught me.

    Future pain is unbearable.
    Remembered pain is unbearable.
    The mind can take one moment of pain and stretch it across the years.

    But pain now is different.

    Pain now can be breathed through.
    Pain now can be met.
    Pain now is only what it is.

    Suffering begins when I leave the present and enter the story of what happened before, or what may happen next.

    So I breathe.

    The breath brings me back.

    Not to a better future.
    Not to a corrected past.
    Just here.

    Where I remember.

    This body is temporary.
    This life is temporary.
    This pain is temporary.

    Not as an argument.
    Not to convince myself.

    To remember.

    I am not this body.
    I am not Robin.
    I am not the story of what happened to him.

    I am not the author of myself.

    That is the relief.

    I do not have to make reality, hold it together, or know what comes next.

    I am created.
    I am held.
    I am the Holy Son of God Himself.

    That remembrance is enough to undo the world I made.

    The Course calls this Atonement.

    Not punishment.
    Not payment.
    Not the repair of something broken.

    The remembrance of what has always been true.

    And in that remembrance, I breathe deeply.

    I become gentle.

    I smile at a stranger in the street and watch them smile back.

    Nothing has to be forced.

    The past is not here.
    The future is not here.
    This body will pass.

    But what I am does not pass.

    I am that I am.
