Help if you're just not getting it at all
Does anyone feel as if they are listening, practising, enjoying - but simply not getting non-duality/having no head/the illusory nature of the self? Alternatively, can anyone help?
Peek inside
Deepen your practice by applying nondual insight to everyday life with discussions about self-transcendence, mindfulness in parenting, work, and relationships, and interpretations of concepts like Looking for the Looker and The Headless Way.

Roadmaps for when life falls apart after stabilizing non-dual perception

How do you treat loneliness during this journey?
This path we are walking, the path to wake up, often feels to me like a lonely one. Right now I'm at a state where I've had some insights and felt how the world could be different (better maybe?). But every person I talk to about my ideas doesn't understand what I'm talking about. This makes me feel lonely and depressed sometimes.

Do you also feel a pull towards nature as your awareness increases?
As the clarity with which I witness my own experience unfold increases over the last four years, I also feel an ever stronger pull towards simply being in nature. I feel like I am more sensitive to the unconscious behavior which is so prevalent in big cities…
