How to turn your Hedonism into Art

-


  1. Don’t let hedonism rule your life. Give it its space, respect it and celebrate it. While also being focused, organized and pragmatic during your day-to-day life.
  2. Understand what hedonism is. Read, research and try to understand the complexity and beauty of this topic.
  3. Explore your hedonism. Experiment and choose the things from which you can get pleasure. Even if your passions are peculiar, learn to accept and love them anyway.
  4. Look deeper into the things you get pleasure from. Understand the real reason why you enjoy a certain thing and not another.
  5. Try to choose the things you truly enjoy in a healthy manner and gradually exclude the things that only feed your ego or have more negative aspects than benefits. Hedonism should bring pleasure and joy and not disrupt your balance.
  6. After choosing some areas of interest try to explore them further and enjoy every step of the way. Hedonism is not about the result, it’s about the process.
  7. Don’t get too attached to the things you enjoy. As you change, they will change too. Celebrate them now and let go when they no longer serve you. Be curious about new things that can bring you joy.
  8. Own your preferences. Don’t be ashamed of your hedonism and proudly take your time to enjoy it. You are here to enjoy everything this world has to offer. Show others they can do it too.
  9. Have some rituals. Even if you know your preferences well enough you might get so caught up in your daily schedule that hedonism will be put aside and you will forget to refocus on the things you enjoy. Make rituals that include at least some of the things that bring you joy.
  10. Express your hedonism. Express it through art, work, hobbies, the things you buy, the way you speak, the food you eat, the people you love. Maybe at some point you can extend it to your whole life and just enjoy living.

Satisfacție sexuală și stres

    În primavara anului 2014, la simpozionul de cercetări ştiinţifice al Universităţii Tibiscus am avut prima ocazie de a prezenta studiul ce reprezinta şi lucrarea mea de licenţă de la terminarea Facultăţii de Psihologie. Scopul acestui studiu a fost investigarea relației dintre satisfacția sexuală și stresul perceput la tineri din Timișoara.   Mult contestata arie a sexologiei este de interes general. Dacă studiem piramida nevoilor lui Abraham Maslow , prima treaptă include nevoile fiziologice: aer, apă, hrană, sex , somn, homeostazie și excreție. Pentru a putea să ne ocupam de alte nevoi în procesul atingerii echilibrului, este esențial să fie satisfăcute toate nevoile de bază.   Domeniul psihosexologiei este unul relativ puțin investigat, deși sexualitatea reprezintă un aspect esențial pentru majoritatea indivizilor. În această arie studiile sunt puține iar materialele din mass media promovează excesul, vulgaritatea și chiar agresivitatea în detrimentul ...

Contradictions vs. Complexity

I am humble and confident. I am sensitive and aggressive. I am educated and wild. I am peaceful and chaotic. I am an introvert and love to be seen. I am ocd level organized and spontaneous. I am rational and deeply intuitive. I am controlling and freely creative. I am shy and loud. I am meticulous and silly. I am strict and forgiving. I am, as any Leo, always right and do things that are wrong. I am a creature of habit and get easily bored. I am extremely impulsive and overthink. I am bold and anxious. I am rigid and free. I am very motherly and distant. I am silent and opinionated. I am independent and clingy. I am an empath and brutally honest. I am funny and sarcastic. I am loving and firm with my boundaries. I am sad and euphoric. I am soft and fierce. There was a time when I felt my body get tight with the burden of having to choose a certain identity and lifestyle. Each time this still happens I tell my inner critic: thanks, I got this. The inner child that holds shame got confus...

Where is connection made? Is it in the brain? Cause I hear them thoughts about you. Not normal ones, but you know... I could even write them here for you. But the world doesn ’t need to know them I should forget them too. The mind is loud and tricky. I don’t think she’s got a clue. Is it in the hands? They feel like they always knew. Cause they get touchy, And grabby and huggy around you. They travel and travel, always exploring anew. These are some good tools for sharing my care for you. When the world makes you dizzy, they’re a safe place to fall. But those places we’ve seen. Don’t need bodies at all. Is it in the heart? Nah. We shouldn’t even look. Most poets searched for it there, Some writers, even a doctor or two. Such silly men. They got so confused. Although it’s quite obvious and simple: Hearts keep bodies running, Yet souls keep the world fueled. I think I get it. Connection is timeless. Spaceless. You’re everywhere, are...
