    Sooo so true!! Nowadays I can see (also experience) "scrolling" as the most damaging thing for mental health!

    My new favorite youtube channel! Thank you so much! My kids and I have just recently found you(thank God) God is doing some amazing things through you. You really do inspire me (an old new Orthodox convert). We look forward to growing with you. Much Love 🙂

    I’m not orthodox yet, but I plan to get there eventually. I’ve been trying to implement the Wednesday and Friday fasts but funnily enough, I have been fasting from media instead of from animal products since I am already plant based. I’m definitely noticing a difference and decrease in my desire for media consumption 👍

    Another thing I've tired to use is the Screen Time feature on iPhones. You can set time limits on certain applications and when you hit the designated time frame, it'll tell you and close the app - www.pcmag.com/how-to/how-to-use-apples-screen-time-on-iphone-or-ipad

      Nice! Yeah, technology can actually help here.
      Because it's a tool, not inherently bad.

      @@jasonalcantara8380 I assume mean recipes. Maybe Instagram because there is private messaging so I can have a list stay under your name is the heading with vegan fasting with something next to it. Or I could create a category because I'm not really interested in staying private for food! :-) if you are really interested I can stop posting recipes pretty soon. Some have pictures but they all don't. They have very clear ingredients simple ingredients and instructions.

      My recipes are delicious and many of them tend to be vegan anyway by default. We need these recipes for one we fast through the Orthodox Church and I would like to provide them for people who have never cooked vegan. May God bless you.

    I see the need for constant contact with my phones as a type of addiction that requires my detox SNS. If I spend too much time on my phone, obsessively checking the internet, social media, mail, or messages, it makes my feel bad…these things kind of message releases dopamine into my brains, making me feel not bad, and want more….But I sure feel better when the person I am with looks at me instead of their phone…️

    I love what you say, it is true and I as a Sunday school servant I believe in it and would like to use your videos to send them to my Sunday school kids so they can learn from them, but actually, there is one thing prohibit me from doing that. YOUR BACKGROUND! Can you please change your background, I just can not send a word of God to my kids with a background that had alcohol drinks in behind. I don’t judge you at all, or say that you shouldn’t have them in your house, not at all, but I am asking you to do so because I really want to use your videos in my Sunday class but your background really stops me. I hope that you do more videos without any alcohol in the background in the future. Thank you.

      Sorry you feel that way. This is the best place for me to film at home, and I cant quite rearrange everything. It's still my living room, not a studio.
      Is there something inherently sinful about alcohol that worries you?

    I was a vegan for 11 years. But I have a syndrome that only belongs to me in the world it took my appetite away. I have to be forced to eat and I usually don't eat until midnight if I'm going to. I just don't ever have an appetite for the past 30 years.
