Mastering Mental Game and Mental Health
nice one husk
Hey BBB. Long time lurker, not sure why I've never posted in here as it's one of only a handful of threads that I read religiously. It is a great thread and you are a pretty inspirational figure, being able to make great money in poker whilst prioritising something else entirely.
With regards to the meditating, I've dabbled a bit but have never quite managed to maintain the consistency required to really reach the supposed benefits. I know it's quite a subtle practise and, as with most things, success is not linear but is probably something you only realise you've achieved after long periods of consistency.
Could you go into a bit more detail? Your past experiences with meditation? The types you've practised/practise? Session lengths etc etc.

I posted this video quite a while back that i found explained the key elements as to why meditation is good for you. He also breaks it down into quite manageable chunks. Overall, consistency is the key to feeling the long term benefits of meditation. I personally advise simple meditation; no music, slowly building up time over weeks/months/years (starting with like 10 mins a day to get into the habit of doing it)
Here's the vid

WRT gym i think youre probably where i was a year ago when i just started and i also struggled eating enough because of my irregular sleeping pattern etc id advise a low carb shake for breakfast postworkout and supper really ramps up the calories and obv a lot of protein.

Stationing in a spot that i prob shouldn't. Found it very very hard to peg him to any value hand that takes this b/x/b line. 8 makes sense i guess but quite hard for him to have any 8x in his 4b range. Meh

"1. Don't think anyones ever taken this line as a bluff after about 5 years of experience.
2. But makes zero sense whatsoever."
3. Call"
4. Oh he has it again."

once you decide 1lb protein/1g bodyweight and 70-90g fat it becomes fairly simple though as those are both very reasonable assumptions. making up your diet as clean as possible is obv optimal but takes more discipline is boring etc. right now im eating 2 shakes and 2 meals of rice/chicken/broccoli a day - i forget what nice food tastes like but the results are great
sick month, gl.
edit: 5-6 small meals would be better but unless u have time to meal prep its not possible for vast majority of people

calculate your maintenance (calories you need to consume each day to maintain your weight) then add a surplus, extra 3500 cals/week should equal gaining 1lb/week on average. 1g fat = 9 cals, 1g carbs = 4 cals, 1g protein = 4 cals, break down your daily calorie consumption into a suitable diet

Somehow ended up browsing this guys vids, he's literally the creepiest guy ever, some truly bizzare stuff on his channel
This is kind of the issue I have with getting into meditation through videos or guided practice. it feels really creepy or just makes me uncomfortable. it's like I can't take the teacher or the practice seriously.
Templesounds all the way!

nice month kid wp
bugger of a day mate but who cares really cos overall results are sicko!!
I had the same reservations but have been using the app "Headspace" and don't find it overly weird or creepy.
Haven't been on 2p2 for a while. Barely playing nowadays and along with that checking 2p2 less. Thought I would log in to check some of the old threads I followed and really pleased to see you are back to your winning ways. WP
This is really funny and true
Subbed gl! I think it's good you post some hands after sessions to study and get input.
Just start small (10 mins) and gradually build up over time. Your mental resilience is just like any muscle in your body, it needs training and will grow in strength over time.
How much money are you winning to have posted in here???

This. Headspace really is the way forward for anyone looking to get into meditation.
I'd argue BBB that for people starting out, as little as 2 or 3 mins at a similar time daily is enough. At the beginning the benefits will be negligible so habit creation is the key. It would be difficult for people with no experience of the benefits to find the motivation to practise for that long each day as the initial motivation would quickly dissipate. Habit needs to step in when initial motivation wanes. By starting with a really small number (and building up slowly as you say) then consistency and habit creation will be much easier to achieve.
It wouldnt be totally useless to meditate for such short periods as you get the confidence from achieving goals, and you get to figure out your best posture which becomes really important when you meditate for longer periods as discomfort during longer sessions can really screw up your focus.

2 or 3 minutes is way to short for me. I can't get my mind to stop moving in that short of a time period. i feel like every time i would even start to get somewhere it would be over. i like the idea of 10 minutes.
Yea headspace starts with 10 minutes and a lot of that is easing you into and out of it. I've got really poor concentration and I found this to be perfect. After 10 days they're 15 minutes long and a further 15 days on they're 20 minutes. I'm doing 20 minutes a day now and can mantain focus throughout.
I liked working my way through day 1, day 2 etc and slowly adding to the time. It makes you feel as though you're progressing rather than just doing the same thing every day. I guess it's the equivalent of adding weights when you go to the gym.
