Love the new thread - thanks for keeping me in the OP :) I still follow along with the thread quietly.

Have you tried mentally noting it kindly? I find that having a little smile on your face and saying it mentally with a kind tone helps keep away the forcefulness.

I like to sit. I've had a lot of good sitting at vipassana camps.

I just kept visiting various traditions until I didn't feel weirded out and felt like I fit in with the community.

Also be a healthy skeptic - I had a group I really liked and found incredibly informative and good, but then the longer I spent with them the more it changed and suddenly everyone in the sangha had to go to 400+ dollar private sessions with some yogi I had never heard of, I was quick to leave but they tried a lot of different pressure tactics to get me back. I had been there for years and had lots of friends in that group.
