    My gateway drug was the Kroll Show. Neal and Nick - two great tastes that taste great together. The closeups on socks and faces as well as the lighting this episode were a cherry on top. I have watched this ep multiple times bc its so funny. Today is my sugar day. ❤

  • @DogsCatsSnacks
    @DogsCatsSnacks Год назад +4

    For a LEGIT food or sugar addiction, keeping sugar or certain foods out of the house is like telling a smoker to not have cigs in the house. A force will still drive you to go out and get it despite the size of the barrier. It's no joke.

    Good convo. His therapist has a point re: not blaming himself for every little flare-up. But the idea that it's "just allergies" also doesn't cover it. Allergies are part of the bodily response to our underlying circumstances, including ancestral adaption and trauma. Our proclivities and defaults are inherited from our ancestors and environments, and we make choices within the results of these circumstances. That's why healing and self-awareness is so important. Yes it helps the self, but it also slowly turns the bigger ship. Happy for you, Nick! (Also the "point" of meditation is not "don't think," fwiw. Lots of misconceptions about meditation, especially since it's often taught as a tool for self improvement rather than for liberation. Studying under a teacher can be super helpful.)
