We often tend to look at ourselves via the mirror. I am not an exception. I often do it, not only when I want to take a selfie.
We tend to judge not only ourselves but also other people through physical appearance. Unfortunately, I sometimes also do it. Still, while doing it, I try to correct myself. I explain to myself that judging others via physicality is merely wrong. Let’s back to observing myself in the mirror. I sometimes close my eyes and look at myself not via physical appearance but rather via inner eye. Is that mean that I do not like my presentation? The truth is that I love to look myself deep in the eyes. Still, I believe that closing eyes and contemplating my state of mood and mind is also pleasing and gratifying.
I reasonably incidentally discovered how I can be closer to myself.
Undoubtedly, intermittent fasting and taking cold showers helped me rediscover my soul for myself, once again in my life. Thanks to intermittent fasting, I know that I need nothing external to feel tremendous and understand myself better. In this case, less is more. Less food (with sugar and processed food at the forefront) and alcohol provided me better physical appearance and a better insight into myself via the inner eye.
Moreover, thanks to taking freezing cold showers, I discovered not only the way to evoke dreams, but I feel much stronger deep in my soul.
I gained confidence. Thanks to taking cold showers, I feel that almost none situation is stressful for me at all. I recommend you, my Dear Friend, to look deep in yourself, not via the mirror, but via the inner eye. If you do not know what I mean, start practicing intermittent fasting (I eat only between 7 p.m. and 12 p.m., avoid processed food and sugar), and take cold showers.
Regarding the latter, start by ending the shower with a minimum of half a minute of chilling water. Later on, your body should get used to colder water with the longer pouring of this freezing water. I think that in the future, I will have to practice both meditation and yoga.
