fixed images a bit more

(written 10:02 Monday 01 April 2024 AEDT)

Today I fixed my image uploader to create 1000px x 1000px images as well as thumbnails. yay!

https://github.com/thunderrabbit/badmin.robnugen.com/commit/248f9319548270f18dc3cf0b287a1ae811ce8d23

Now I just need to tell the index.php file to not create thumbs for the 1000px images, but do show the 1000px images if they exist

Renee and Renato breathwork workshop

(written 14:55 Sunday 31 March 2024 AEDT)

Thank you Renee and Renato for an amazing experience. I’ve done breathwork before, but previously had not had so much experiential impact from breathwork ever before. Probably the sheer length of the session (45 minutes?) of in-in-out breathing. My hands and feet were tingling as if I had just arrived back in my body from astral traveling.

After the session, I felt so alive and so much love for the container and for Jess having introduced me and attending as well. So great to sit with Jess after we helped Renee and Renato pack up their elaborate setup, including altar, lights, drum set, various instruments, plus yoga mats, blankets, pillows, and eye masks for each participant. Such a great event!

Thank You God for I am joyfully receiving heart-aligned abundance, serving soul-aligned clients.

lifesaving race practice

(written 09:28 Monday 01 April 2024 AEDT)

A few days ago (Friday 29 March) I went early to Bondi Beach and was fascinated by the life saving racers.

2024 mar 29 lifesaving rabbits

They were preparing for state, national, and world competition.

Basically racing inflatable motor boat out into the surf, pick up a patient, and bring them back as quickly as possible. Different boat drivers / savers / patients each time.

Get Connected! (formerly Thoughtful Thursdays)

from Matt:

Another beautiful night! Loved hearing about actions speaking louder than words, and letting the undeniable truths speak for themselves. Loving the new intention setting exercises. Thanks for being there, and for those that couldn’t make it this week, I hope you still find time to eat, sit, write, and most of all, Get Connected 🧘‍♂️ ♥

Wonderful day yay

(written 23:41 Monday 25 March 2024 AEDT)

Right up to the very last drop, today has been a wonderful day with Jess.

It started with me recording hopefully enough video to make a 5 minute recording for my website.

Then we headed to a cheap first visit to a Chinese medicine doctor who did acupuncture on me to hopefully fix my ribs. It didn’t work well so she thinks my rib might be cracked.

Then lunch of fat noodles and eggplant stew plus some shredded potatoes in a pita type thing. Then Mosman and Cobblers Beach, a nude beach where we swam in our birthday suits and ate carrot cake Jess got for me.

Then we walked back to Mosman and took bus 100 to Martin Place and then a train to KX and took pics near the fountain before attending Lindsey’s kundalini activate event. I felt some energies in my body each time Lindsey came near me. Quite interesting!

Then we ate pizza at Dominos because Govindas was closed. On the way back Jess posted our event and confirmed the link wasn’t working on mobile so I got it fixed today.

Nice clear skies to see the full moon in the park near her place.

DH is still not allowing me to ssh to my shared host but fortunately I was able to fix the link, just not post this yet.

tumbling in waves leads to magical connections

(written 20:57 Sunday 24 March 2024 AEDT)

A few days ago I enjoyed being tumbled by the waves in Bondi Beach swim area. Harmless fun, right?

For the past 2-3 days I’ve been unable to inhale deeply without pain. Jess recommended I see Ken at the Japanese 指圧 shiatsu clinic near her place. She bought me a 90 minute session today and I received a great massage from Ai-chan. Ai-chan said I had scoliosis! First time I’ve heard that news. Ai-chan should see Ken-san if possible but he was busy.

After the treatment, I headed back to Jess' place. She was heading out through the back gate just as I walked past it to go to the front door. I heard her call my name.

Woah nice timing! Jess and I went to the festival near the beach and talked to a woman selling hemp salves, CBD oil, and other stuff. She kindly offered her time and said my back has scoliosis. Hmmm!

On the way back to Jess' place, we bought fruits at Harris Farm for our fruit fast, starting today. Just afterward, we saw Ken-san available in his clinic! He kindly checked me out and recommended 針 (acupuncture).

At 20:07pm Jess contacted her old acupuncture place via text.. and they replied back immediately. She got me an appointment for tomorrow at 11am! Magically delicious all around.

Thoughtful Thursday

Thank you Matt for a beautiful night exploring the theme of letting go. Matt offered a new intention setting exercise which worked quite synchronistically well as people basically offered insightful guidance from and to the universe

And thanks to Natasha for introducing the cool idea of being a ‘time millionaire’. 🙏

(written 04:36 Thursday 21 March 2024 AEDT)

Dear God

Today is the day I will meet John of New after seeing him on Alex Ferrari’s podcast Next Level Soul back in August 2023.

This is the first timeslot that was available. 7 months booked solid. Nice.

I’ve just listened to several of his videos, mostly those labeled “Coffee Time with John”.

21:18 Sunday 24 March 2024 AEDT

Here’s the recording of our session. Maybe I coulda jumped in, but I’m a great listener and I just let him talk.

art.robnugen.com extension on my Mediawiki instance wiki.robnugen.com

For a while, I have been paying an extra $5 per month to keep one of my servers running PHP 7.4. In the past few days, I have started poking around my art.robnugen.com extension to get it up to Mediawiki and PHP 8 standards.

Follow along here:

Good morning routine

This morning Jess and I worked on the images for the new workshop we plan to host here on March 29th. Then some cuddles and kisses (sans sex so far today) before heading out to get some food for today: coconut milk from Scoop, veggies and such from Harris Farm, then two 2-liter Nudie juice bottles from a different grocer near Harris Farm.

As a challenge, I carried the juice bottles with a single finger each on my right hand: index and pinky fingers. Index finger was fine, but pinky was a bit tired by the time we got back.

Now with perfect timing it has just started raining; oh now it stopped. nvm. Oh now it started again yay perfect timing.
