The more time you spend in a somewhat timeless space, where time ceases to mean much of anything beyond the passing of days, the more your perception relaxes.
“You really don’t have to subscribe to the life you thought had been written for you, you can rewrite the script and change it up whichever way you want.”
Wow, just wow, what started out as an overly stimulated, energizer bunny feeling, wanting to grab every moment to exercise, has turned into something far more sedate and gentle. Something very manageable and quite pleasant.
Of course, there is still the diamond-like focus on any task and the ability to seamlessly accomplish any number of tasks effortlessly, but there is a lotmore calm.
Part of this I believe, is the physical integration. This allows us to feel normal in body,and part of it is also the conceptual adaptation we are going through.
We are becoming children of time now that we are no longer bound by her iron grip. This is hard to explain, but the more time you spend in a somewhat timeless space, where time ceases to mean much of anything beyond the passing of days, the more your perception relaxes.
We are no longer driven by this race against the clock to get everything done.We still work with passion because we like to engage with things, and it just feels good, but we drop the haste. We no longer feel we are going to have our cookies snatched away from us at the end of the journey, and as such, we can picnic along the way at our leisure. This changes everything.
We also have less fear of disease as we can just regress ourselves to a point where we did not have a disease process – to a healthy version of ourselves before the disease state.
We can relax in the knowledge that we need never abandon our kids by dying, and we can take our time with them as they will also live forever. This is immensely relaxing and comforting on all sorts of levels.The favourite pet need also not die and with this realization we automatically feel more secure.
I lost a bit of weight during this process but I realized I was becoming addicted to the thrill of spreading immortality to the world and was living on handfuls of cashews, pinenuts and orange juice because I did not have the patience or time to cook a meal.
This was easily rectified as part of this is that we can run our own machinery at full steam yet still nourish the body. We can still get the exercise yet not behave like a lunatic either. I was exercising so much just to calm the excess energy in myself and enjoying the childlike buzz of just wanting to do stuff.
This has calmed down now. I have one walk a day instead of 3, although if I can get 4 I probably would but the cellular impulsion to move has calmed down a bit.
Circulation remains good, it is the middle of winter here and I rarely put on more than two thin layers as I just do not really feel cold. Skin has softened all over the body and wound healing has also increased.
Mood is generally optimistic and good with spikes of downright euphoria, occasionally old fears or doubts arise but not for long as the general wave is an upward one.
Abundance seems a theme and I have more inclination to be lavish. I have two vases with flowers just because they are beautiful and I went out the other day to buy velvet for the Immortality bags and ended up coming home with 20 metres of different coloured velvets, I felt like a Persian prince.
There is a lot to do every day but somehow it all gets done and I get to do it with a resolute and consistent burn of energy that just ploughs through anything.
Digestion is much better all in all, and my gums have improved a lot due to the better circulation.My teeth feel like they are sitting better in my mouth.
Hunger goes up and down, sometimes I hardly notice it and sometimes I eat like a starved wolf. It has no particular pattern, although I realize I have been burning up a lot of energy just thinking and planning and probably need to feed the body more to avoid burning muscle.
Emotionally, I feel very stable and able to deal with pretty much any situation including the rather thorny childcare conflicts that arise from time to time. In truththere have been a lot less of these.
Another thing is that I seem more present with the experience.It is easier not to bang my head on a door, or foot on a rock, as the inhabiting of the new body becomes more familiar and there is less haste.
Time, well time, has been the biggest casualty in this as we have to forge a new working relationship with it. The previous version of it is quite simply preposterous and really not useable.
All the ‘get old and die stuff’ gets thrown away, to be replaced with ‘create, thrive and live forever’ statements and views.
We are remarkably adaptable as people and so we need relatively little time to begin running a new temporal paradigm. The more ‘new immortals’ that come on board with this, the easier it is to have people around that can speak our own language and laugh at quirky outdated temporal structures that until recently we held as sacrosanct.
On a practical level, each morning dose I now take feels less like a stimulant and more like a little nudge to an ongoing continuity. It’s almost as if the body has now received and read the new memo on time and we are just sending it little reminders to move regenerative processes along in the body to bring us back to a more perfect state of health.
To summarise, well you can’t so I won’t even try but if I had one message to relay back to people going through this process it would be to trust the process. It is your own body healing itself and ridding itself of superfluous structures and memories.
Abide, abide, abide and enjoy the ride. It is a fascinating process on every level and totally personal so if you hit a dip, do whatever you have to, to get out of it.Definitely get out into nature and into water if possible. Both of these facilitate integration and enthusiasm, both of which are extremely useful to drive the process forward.
Sometimes we just need to stop the car if we want to fix it, so allow yourselves time out to just goof off on the couch if that is what the body is calling for. Eat what you want, indulge yourself, and enjoy it.
This is the most fascinating journey you will ever go on as it is the journey back to the youthfulself-whilst retaining one’s insights and wisdoms from all the years you have been alive.
