MODERATORS
1 - Hallucinogens are a fun time with my partner and close friend(s) and sometimes they can make me very introspective in a way that alters how I live my life.
2 - I've attempted meditation but it always feels like a waste of time to me. I could just be reading instead tbh.
3 - esotericism and occultism are really cool from a detached perspective. I adore their aesthetics and especially their history (all glory to Dr. Sledge) but I don't believe in them.
A good meditation session can be super productive. You can work through some issues that have been burdening you, and put yourself in a noticeably altered mental state that can last days. It only really "works" like 1/3rd of the time for me.
Meditation is a very big deal to me. At worst indispensable. At best eye-opening.
