Usually your subconscious try to guide you in right direction. But we neglect it by our reasoning and greed.

I rely on my subconscious as a guiding light when wrestling with the thornier issues. The old aphorism about "sleeping on it" with major decisions has a lot of merit, imho. It is in those glimmering moments of consciousness that the subconscious takes command, and has usually sorted through the thorny issues--or will have by awakening in the morning. When all the noise and distractions of our crazy conscious world has been tuned out.

Of course. I also think being more spiritual might be helpful for you. Listen to yourself at times like these

Yesterday I passed by the last bus stop in my residential area. It was sunny, a nice afternoon, a view on the city...I had a thought: I'd stop here, get on the bus, get to the train station, get on the train and just travel somewhere far away without looking back.

@CrazyMusicLover Do it! Plan a trip and see where it takes you!
Speaking of woo, I feel like there ought to be Mormon-esque people going door to door to farms trying to cultishly convert them to biodynamic farming, that would just be a funny image to me.

Organic / regenerative / sustainable agriculture not good enough? Why not garnish all of that with something resembling astrology, and some "preparations" that require animal parts if you want to get certified (by an org called Demeter), but then which means, for example, no biodynamic wine will ever be able to be also certified as vegan-friendly. Just for fun, the founder of biodynamics, Rudolph Steiner, is also considered by many to have been a racist (I guess it was just something in the water in that Teutonic part of the world).

I only say this in jest though, I'm not actually recommending. To me biodynamics is a scam that adds zero value above the the completely rational baseline of organic / regenerative / sustainable practices. But a ton of people are on that bandwagon because it apparently sounds cool as far as woo goes, and makes for good marketing to uncritical eyes that won't ever look beneath the surface.
@FoxyGoddess no shortage of people with more money than sense, sadly ... which frequently also spills over into myriad other facets of life and society

People should have a critical thinking course in every year of K-12 education. Society would benefit from this if people weren't so susceptible to falling for con artists or to unwittingly spreading debunked misinformation.

@BlueGreenGrey my only dismay is that I have never been able to create a product that people want to spend so much on.
@FoxyGoddess ideally something of actual value that fulfills legitimate, essential needs or at least has zero negative impact on the environment or society if it's a non-essential product appealing more to wants than needs.

FoxyGoddess · 51-55, F
@class Woo is like mystical, magical type things that have no basis in reality but are believed in, like Reiki, aura reading, etc.
