    Cracking video, Jon. I quit coffee 3 weeks ago. One thing that always pushed me back to coffee was simply that everywhere you look there is pro coffee propaganda “it gives you energy, it makes you focus, it makes you cool” but it’s basically a tool to make workers perform mundane tasks. I am so calm with a sense of self I haven’t had in a long time. I know who I am, I know what I want and I’m healthier than I’ve been in years. My skin, and hair look great. I’ve also shed a ton of abdominal weight despite eating loads!

      @@JonBear Something to research deeper perhaps. There are 2 resources that might be interesting to you. First of all is Michael Pollen, known for the book "How to change your mind" but before that known to be a professor of food (Probably had a more fancier title, I just came up with that) at Berkeley university.
      Another is the practice of Ayurveda, a yogic path of food intake. Claiming that anything that is being accepted into your being has spiritual value and properties.

      @@MarcelClobus Thank you for the book recommendation! I read a lot and put it on my list.
      I want to read more about Ayuveda. I see the value of having a world view where everything you eat is something you 'accept' into your body. Gives one a pause for thought before going to some cheap junk food when in a rush

    All things are good in moderation. :) One coffee a day, keeps the mind degradation away! lol. I personally am not a morning person and a cup of coffee (1 shot in a 400ml milk mug) to bridge waking up and my body producing enough hormones to be awake. Beyond that, drinking more doesn't do anything and I rarely drink a second cup. Get enough sleep and it will give you more benefits. None of us like to sleep, society pressures you to work more and sleep less, but your body needs it, especially long term. Eat, love, rest. Peace bro!

  • @janalexandermyhrvold9554
    @janalexandermyhrvold9554 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like your emphasis on allowing yourself to enjoy a cup of coffee and enjoy it well when you have control over your addiction. Completely cutting off what you love will not help with your state of mind in the long run.

  • @liteguy7267
    @liteguy7267 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It is indeed good to not have a coffee every day. As you said, the boost effect you get from a coffee is really impressive when you aren't used to coffee. I think it is a good "last minute work" beverage that you can drink if you have urgent work to do that can't be done tomorrow but the fatigue just keeps staying

    • @JonBear

    Thanks for this Jon, it was really useful even if you are just doing it to shill your tea thingy. #LuverlyKappaTea
    I think I'm going to try to do the same trick with the decaff mixing now. Hopefully this also works with instant coffees.
    Finally, I'm a bit disappointed by your recent lack of volcano coverage. Could you please use your Dragon Reborn channelling powers to create a new volcano in Iceland and then get lots of drone footage of it? Thanks in advance.

    • @JonBear
      @JonBear  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I am glad you enjoyed Jamie!
      Just to be clear, I did it for personal reasons. Promoting my Tea is not the motivation :)
      Glad you're gonna give it a go! Especially if you're used to drinking a lot every day.
      Fingers crossed we get another volcano soon! I'll channel my newfound caffeine free energy to make it happen. Promise.

    I think it might have gone down better if you'd tapered for a longer period, instead of rushing to get totally off. I spent years drinking a mix of Teeccino herbal coffee and coffee or decaf, and it is funny how once you're totally adjusted. you realize you actually sleep better and wake up refreshed, weirdly not needing coffee any more

    Good job man, people who drink caffeine everyday are every morning at 50% and need to drink coffee all day to get to 80% its called reverse withdrawl i think, but because you remove te withdrawl with drinking it you thinking you get a boost but actually youre still lower energy than people who never drink caffeine.
    Watch out with the every now and then i did that too for a while but after a while it gets more and more, before you know it youre drinking daily again.

    I have one cup of coffee a day but then I also drink a lot of Ceylon tea which also caffeine. But I weirdly reach a point where I suddenly don’t want coffee. I get one headache and then I’m fine.
