Is Enlightenment Still Possible? And (spoiler alert) how to attain it

Hi Everyone,The current Mental Health Crisis is an opportunity for us to change.My name is Mat Robinson, also known as The Gregarious Hermit.A few years ago, I was overwhelmed with work, stressed and depressed, to the point that I would wake up each morning feeling sick and with a sense of panic. The final straw was when my best friend was diagnosed with brain cancer.The subsequent questioning of life’s purpose gave me tremendous insight into the nature of the mind and how it makes us unhappy despite an abundance of things that promise otherwise.Since the pandemic started, I was troubled to see so many other people were struggling with mental health issues, so I have been sharing my story and the tools I discovered.I teach meditation for stress relief as well as observing and identifying the unnecessary conversations in the mind. I teach mindfulness to allow people to remain present, focused on the physical aspects of their life and work rather than getting wrapped up in the stories in their head. And finally, I teach people how to experience unconditional love and apply it to every aspect of their life. In my presentation, I refer to it as, “extreme health hacking”, because you are literally changing your body chemistry into such a healthy state that your body can heal and thrive.Warm regards,Mat

With so much information at our fingertips, it should be easier to learn anything these days. But, the overwhelming distractions of a fast paced modern society seem to feed our egos and strengthen our sense of self. So is it possible to break away? Is it easier or harder?Our fast paced society with all its distractions, and stimulating man-made environments place a much higher burden on our senses and our minds. So much so, that our sense of identity is constantly being reinforced by our interactions that it makes it difficult to step away and disassociate from the “self”. But at the same time, we have easy access to so much more information than at any other time in history, which should make the process of separation easier.So which side will win? Is it easier to attain or harder to attain enlightenment? Well, that’s up to you to decide.During this enlightening workshop on enlightenment, Mat will break down the process and lay out the practical steps required to disconnect from your identity and experience &quot;oneness&quot;.
