    Feng Shui is basically Law of Attraction with extra steps. “I feel slightly grumpier in the morning because my bed’s too close to the wall and it’s claustrophobic, there goes my financial success” lol

    Ngl though, it does actually make you feel better (if you don’t buy into all the woowoo BS)

    I love this one guy’s “Don’t be a weiner” series on youtube, he’s super funny and actually has really solid quick tips on how to minmax shitty apartments lol

        I dunno, in Japan at least there was a lot of woowoo as far back as 1000 years ago. The gardening version of Feng Shui that Japan adopted has fun stuff in it like ‘don’t put a rock in upside down, or it will curse you for seven generations’.

            Gotcha, so your point is not that meditation is woowoo; your point is that expecting meditation to connect you to the spirit realm is woowoo.

            Just so we’re clear, this is called transcendental meditation and I’m pretty sure it was created and started by an Indian man in India.

            Edit: ooh, didn’t like that one did ya? You’ve earned your tag.

        Are you suggesting that Yoga is “woowoo?”

        It’s a fucking excellent physical workout & emotionally therapeutic when you find the right teachers. And there are plenty of excellent teachers.

    You got to stop blaming yourself. Blame yourself once and move on.

    I just blame everyone (including myself).

    But especially the medical profession, for intentionaly dropping the ball, to follow whatever sick fuck wanted to run an eugenics program here.
