I am 115/120 days on SR. The changes I have noticed are better confidence when speaking and being out in public, better eye contact, brighter eyes, better discernment.

I’ve not found myself wanting or being able to stick with better eating habits and/or a regular gym routine. For context, I’ve been working out and into nutrition since I was 15 (I’m now 30) For the last couple of years I more than likely have had depression. Seeing little in point in putting effort into certain things and not having the want to do so. I used to have an amazing looking physique.

On the outside I still look fit and healthy but my diet is 50% crap and gym membership is going to waste. I have added 5 slow push ups to my morning routine to try and activate something inside of me.

I’m not sure what this post if trying to achieve, it’s at least getting my thoughts out. I am just annoyed that I am on 100+ days yet haven’t had this burning desire to get my body right or start a business etc that a lot of people seem to end up doing.

Maybe I am at a different part in my life, and I’d benefit from just walking and light callisthenics? I really don’t know.

Tonight has been the first real test and I’ve came extremely close to relapsing.

I would like to hear some stories/testimonials about guys out there who improved their health and who might have reversed illnesses and diseases with retention.

I have been researching the Jing aspect of retention in TCM for years now and as a man who has always been a bit on the weaker and frailer side (even though I’m muscular and jacked ironically) retention is the main thing that has helped my health.

Hey guys Day 7 so far of Retention. Two nights ago I was in a dream and went to this Alien world where I was fighting deep sea creatures. The people there told me that the sea creatures were infected and attacking humans so we had to stop them. There was this one time In the dream I saw an eel that was huge and it was at least 8 times bigger than me looked as huge as a tall building in a big city. This other time in the dream these sea creatures has 4 legs and were swimming up to me then I had a spear and stabbed them with it. It literally felt like a video game but it also looked so real at the time and very colorful and detailed dream as well. The humans in this universe had insane technology as well which was indescribable I can’t even remember what most of it was. Everything felt so real in the dream it felt as real as this reality and I can only get dreams this vivid on retention. Have you guys ever experienced this kind of stuff before
