That's N-O-C-D dot com.

Well, first I will say the way of integrity.

I read it.

I loved it.

When you say every truth makes us relaxed and every lie makes us tense there.

Mm-hmm.

It feels warm to me.

I understand.

It feels like intellectually and spiritually, yes, like ringing, ringing, ringing to me.

But I guess what I just want to understand is I hear what you just said about the kind of the rock bottom of that suffering when you're like, it is just not working.

But what do we say to anyone who's listening today

myself included, that helps people who are just maybe low grade suffering.

Like my friends and I all feel like we're just like army crawling through life.

Like just like every day is just like getting through it.

And I think if I lived according to just my nature, like what only responded to the call of my body, that I would just...

stay in bed and I would definitely not do what it takes to get the kids on the bus or to baseball practice.

And I would not file my taxes.

How does this way of life apply to those of us for whom tension and kind of pushing through the hard, annoying shit that's required of life feels like it just what it takes to live?

Lately, I've been noticing how easy it is to go through my days on autopilot, absorbing information nonstop without really taking anything in.

That's where Masterclass has quietly become part of my routine.
