I help men Break The Chains of Addiction & Self Destructive Behaviours, ending Escapism from the ROOT

07/05/2024

The greatest accident of my life… ⬇️
I was walking to the gym one day and randomly discovered how to bring instant silence to my mind
It sounds crazy I know. But it’s true
The technique I discovered that day has now served hundreds of people.
Helping them go from brain enslaved and MENTALLY OBESE to serene and chilling out with inner peace
❌ I was a heavy overthinker. Always ruminating on future worst case scenarios
❌ I was the anxious mess, never present and always scattered
❌ I was the distracted one, never able to focus for longer than a few seconds
Now I help people change their lives with meditation, self awareness and behaviour change…
Your weaknesses will one day become your strength
If you’re willing to invest and put the work in
I just released a new issue of The Mastery Letter

Un-scatter your mind 🧠👇🏽
Good mental health is a way of life
Once you begin to increase yours, you’ll see how messed up todays “normal” is
There’s good news for the strangers
Those willing to walk in the opposite direction

It all depends on intention ⬇️
Shallow interpretation is dangerous
We’re all guilty of it
When you share your sins boastfully it is harmful for the world
Why?
It allows harmful acts to be considered as OK and not a big deal
Yet if you share a past sin or experience from your life with the intention to positively impact others…
What’s the problem?
There is none
This can be the difference between somebody relating to you and not
Somebody accepting your advice and not
Is it not frustrating when you’re trying to help someone but they won’t take your advice???
ITS BECAUSE THEY DONT RELATE TO YOU
So… build the bridge through our common thread
Pain
Then the soil will be fertile for sharing seeds of goodness

Here’s why you should… ⬇️
When you share your story, others can relate to you
When they relate, you can impact them better
Tell me, how many sheikhs do you actually feel safe to express deep things to?
How many imams do you feel will really understand your pain?
Maybe they will… but the confidence is lacking because we do not see beyond the appearance that is presented
I’m not saying everyone should lay all cards out on the table
What I’m saying is, if there is some way you can prevent unnecessary pain and suffering in this world you should do it
Sharing your story will be part of that
And part of that will be speaking about the sins you used to commit
We all sin… (commit acts against the good of the collective)
So why pretend that’s not the case?

La medicina 🍃
Back 6 years ago I was waking up with gut wrenching anxiety
Intrusive thoughts would bombard my mind upon opening my eyes
No matter how long I laid in bed, nothing got better
The solution was not to think more and more
It was to get into my body
Creating a morning routine that involved exercise changed my life
Out of the head, into the body…
This is how I began undoing the habit of anxious overthinking
Move

How to win the battle… ⬇️
I used to have Pure-O type OCD
My family had no idea
I kept it quiet
Now I’m good…
Alhamdulillah
I just released a new issue of The Mastery Letter

It’ll help you take back your mind
FINALLY…

Love or hate? It’s all good
If you have a strong message to share with the world… expect resistance
It’s ok to have people commenting hatefully on your posts
Disagreeing with you and calling you names
It’s all engagement…
They think they’re doing you harm, but they’re really boosting your content
So keep spreading the message
Accept the bad and the good
Because in the game of social impact… it’s all good!

It’s not a life sentence…⬇️
Currently writing on this topic
Letter will be out this week (Wednesday approx)
I struggled with a type of OCD called Pure-O
Pure-O is purely mental
No compulsive actions. Just the most heavy, deep spirals of dark, negative thinking
Every year from morning until night I would fight my mind
I found my way out in the end.
If I can break free, so can you!

This might trigger you… ⬇️
But I promise I’m not trying to mislead
There are certain principles in Buddhism that can be found within Islam too
You see, spirituality is the same in principle no matter which path you choose
The religion is where we differ
Is that to say religion is unnecessary?
Completely not
Religion + Spirituality is like a fire kept within a stone circle
It keeps things under control and prevents disaster
Spirituality is the fire
Religion is the container
What I’m saying is that Buddhism helped me in my spiritual journey
And what I learned now brings me closer to Allah
Glad tidings be to the strangers

Escapism smells…⬇️
Honestly, i find it harder teaching meditation to men than women
Western minded men are so stuck in their heads
Anything that doesn’t involve doing or thinking is considered (g@y)
The truth that’s being pointed to there is that feelings and learning to be still are more feminine in nature
YIN energy is just as important as YANG
If you don’t have a good balance (for you) you’ll resort to addictive behaviours for self medication
❌ Work Addiction
❌ Substance Addiction
❌ Se❌ Addiction…
It’s all a signal for imbalance
Masculinity is grounded, strong, stoic, and centred
The loudest person in the room is most likely the least secure
Let’s clarify what masculinity REALLY is…
Because In truth, the men who are afraid to meditate, and the men who are afraid of true masculine potential

Forget to Remember
That is the game of life
In the end we will remember, when death reaches us
But wouldn’t it be better to remember while we are still alive?
This is central to spirituality
“Who am I?”
“What am I?”
Ponder on these questions with sincerity and curiosity
I have found something quite useful to be expressing thanks to God not for only what I have…
But more-so who and what I AM
Praise be
