This practice can be greatly complemented by fasting. Fasting by itself has numerous benefits for the mind, body and spirit. And there's also the amazing feeling that comes from worshipping God and living a principled life - which is the purpose of a man's life.
I have recently relapsed on day 99... I was proper gutted for a few days. During that streak I was flat lining for ages, no benefits, I was on adhd meds that I think was not helping, so after my relapse I have managed to stop the adhd meds and I actually feel fine without them. So new streak with no stimulants. Im ready to power up, whatever it takes. Cheers Koen, your channel rules. Peace from England.
It is known that Stimulants hinder the healing process, can extend the flatline and reduces the benefits.If it works for you then great but just know that any stimulants CAN hinder the whole process. Cheers@@roberamitiku8524
My theory is that fappers believe that the pleasure compensates for the natural guilt feelings, so they don't feel too bad about fapping; but when they start retention and lapse, the combination of the natural guilt and the disappointment of failure outweigh whatever pleasure to the point that they beat themselves up. That fails to help, because learning retention is a process that takes time and effort. For these reasons, lasting semen retention requires the ability to forgive oneself for lapses, to learn from them, and to keep going until the desired beneficial lifestyle is achieved.
Pray to the Holy Spirit for the fruit of self-control and patient endurance. Seek solitude, don't over talk, spend regular time in nature, much meditation and reading holy scripture, feed on the word of God.
Guys day around 500+ I've had a couple of times I've experienced a relapse and fallen flat on my face. I realized the power of God within us. Sometimes I cling too much on retention. I can't imagine living without it. But that's only because of the pain I experienced before the retention journey and waking up. Bad trips, anxiety, derealization. I still feel that the benefits are not as strong as they would be if I were "healthy" and present. But deep inside me when I reflect, feel my pain I think of other people and that it's not all about me but about helping others. I feel God and I know that if I go in the right direction, I can overcome even these strange and strong states. But in the end, God will only give everyone as much as they can handle. We are all in this together, stay strong!
No intentional ejaculations, that's the only rule? Right. How about meds? Vyvanse? Prescription morphine?. I know those aren't good, but will it make S.R pointless. Or is there still a point?. I'm on my 7th week and thus far all that happen Is my voice sounds different, alien to me.
I’m just started my journey! Excited… but, I’m 9 days in and the last 3 days I’ve had blue balls. It’s very unpleasant to say the least. I was releasing once to twice a day before I started retention. Any idea how long I can expect this to last?
Day 70. Benefits: sparkling eyes, more endurance in the gym, I'm being drawn to religion and god. Negatives: sleeping longer, no motivation to do anything (apart from working out), depression is back and loneliness started to bother me. If you guys think that SR is a cure for all the problems in your life, you simply wrong. The journey is not easy. When people say it gets easier the longer you go, turns out its only more easy to hold on to your seed. Everything else is harder. All your problems will be there, but now you have to face them. Now I can really see this journey is not for everyone. If it wasn't for god I wouldn't struggle.
You got this. The depression is not your enemy. It means that you are transforming and you need to rest and integrate things that are painful. It’s actually there to help you evolve. Don’t see it as a bad thing, don’t fight it. Embrace your vulnerability. Give yourself the love that you need. It’s gonna pass.
Pun intended? Get off the internet. Read, exercise, hang out with friends. I have regulated my time on the internet, I'm online only as long as I need, for my job or to communicate, then I'm turning everything off and live like it's 90's.
While I was on SR and healthy diet I had too low blood pressure tested at dentist.I suffered from random severe tooth pain.Headaches.Brainfog.Low motivation.I thought I was supposed to feel better on SR.The only time I really feel a positive effect from SR is when I get an increase in T after 7 days and I feel really happy and masculine in those days.But it goes back down.N I could be retaining for another month or two and I don't feel much at all if anything.This has led me to take SR less serious.
stop making it a big deal when you relapse + accept all the feeling (guilt, shame) that you'll feel after a relapse. they will come and go when you allow them to pass
Hey Koen ! In one of your videos you quickly talked about the fact that after some time, you were able to have intercourse with the natural ease to last long and even without ejaculating. I've also experienced that in the past and I thought I'd share some insight about our ability to do so. My hypothesis is that the more you feel overall secure in your life/relationship, the less the feel the biological urge to procreate. And the opposite of that is: the more you feel insecure, the quicker you tend to ejaculate. This dynamic is obviously a byproduct of your state of being, and the more whole you feel, the less you feel the urge to "exert" (in this case, reproduce) which would be like overcoming our primal body inclinations because they've been transcended, or as you say, transmuted into a much higher form of energy. I'd love you to make an in-depth video about this subject of intercourse/relationships and semen retention. Blessings !
It's not the end of the world, only the end of the street. Turn the corner and keep going. You will get where you want to be, but it takes time, effort, and learning from your mistakes.
If your making past two weeks consistently you're doing good I spent a full year only getting in the 20s even if I didn't relapse i would wet dream before 30 days. It's a lifestyle.
My first ever streak I hit 19 days. My next streak was 99 days. Dont get disheartened, its a process. Pick yourself up, forgive yourself and keep moving forward. Keep taking the punches and keep moving!!
@KoenBlom... speaking of relapse.. If I plan to achieve 30days sr and am on my 25th day sr streak and let's assume I busted a nut on day 26, what will become of my progress? .shall I reset counting on day 1 or shall I wait 4days (recovery phase) then continue counting the (no fap) days afterwards until I reach day 30? .or shall I omit the 4-day recovery phase and just continue to count the days (with no fap) afterwards until I reach day 30?
Don't get caught up in the math. Keep fapping as little as possible for as long as possible until you don't fap anymore. Patience and persistence are the keys.

That's the mindset! Thank you bro
@mattewpearce8481 how does adhd pills negatively impact you. For me it is the other way around. I don’t have sexual urges when I am taking them.
Speak for yourself 🗣️ My adderall makes me a BOSS 💯

I love your videos brother! I’ve been practicing SR for a few months now and I really needed to hear this!🙏🏻
thank you bro!

Let’s gooo 💪🏽 retention is literally a game changer appreciate your consistency

depends, but should go away over time if you transmute the energy properly.
Day 70.

Well this was disappointing to read... if you are sleeping longer, lack motivation, and are depressed is it really worth it?
you ask for strength, god will give you challenges to overcome.
part of the game brother. it's on your path for a reason.
Sounds like the flatline to me, push through it and your reach bliss.@@therealmarcel

Every 5 to 10th short video on youtube shorts is sexual content....it is hard...

@@azazeln you are correct. Thats the way.

I NOTICED THAT WHEN I RELAPSE...I HAVE EATEN PIZZA BEFORE. I NOTICED TWO TIMES.... NOW I LEARNED FROM THIS!!!!!
no problem bro, its part of learning from the mistakes, usually the relapse comes after a period of stress also
Yes, diet is huge on this journey. Junk food can trigger the craving of pleasure more.
30 days of my journey and guess what, it feels amazing.
Awesome bro
your eyes are really attractive and glowing!
Man what your saying is all true thanks bro
i want to say you that this is a message i needed to hear thank you
my pleasure!
Day 34 💪
Great Video! I been relapsing every other weak and feeling a way about it. How can i push past that week dred?
stop making it a big deal when you relapse + accept all the feeling (guilt, shame) that you'll feel after a relapse.
they will come and go when you allow them to pass
105 day today
Can I ask what day did you come out of flatline? I made it to day 99 but relapsed. Cheers
what is flatline ?@@matthewpearce8481
Thanks you for the valuable information. I’m feeling great at the moment but it’s good to know about the possible hurdles that may come.
Thank you very much!

Will definitely look into it! Thanks for sharing 🙏

I AM SO .....ADDICTED....I AM UNGRY BECAUSE I RELAPSE ON 19 DAYS.....😒❤🙏

Don't get caught up in the math. Keep fapping as little as possible for as long as possible until you don't fap anymore. Patience and persistence are the keys.
Must reset to day 0
As Mike said, don't stress it too much. Just focus on the doing the best you can
You are my new friend ❤
