Greetings Sam - welcome to Openhand 🙏

It's always possible to correct when we go wayward, absolutely, yes. But before doing so, it's crucial to explore deeply into why? And without judgment of oneself. This is essential because without it, the likelihood is we'll simply repeat the same issue further down the line.

The words that stand out from your sharing are, "when my resolve was weak". So the question is, are you efforting to stay on the path? Do you really know why you're doing it? Is it to get somewhere? In which case, we'll most likely fail at some point. However, if you've explored what motivates your life, and if that happens to be something like finding the best expression of you in any given moment, because you've realised there's nothing more worthwhile, then you'll always find a way to navigate through the tough parts again. To be specific, life is not a destination - it's not somewhere on the horizon. It's how you're being here and now. Likewise with the mistakes - they are the past. Can you learn from them and move on?

Making mistakes is a part of the path - it's what defines the path. Without the mistakes, we wouldn't be touching the unconsciousness. And the unconsciousness is exactly where we need to go to evolve. Ideally though our attunement gets ever finer, so the consequences are less brutal, and the time we're out of alignment gets ever shorter.

In terms of purifying once more, this forum thread contains plenty of worthwhile suggestions. But I would also explore developing a generally healthy plant-based diet. You can discover lots of info and reference material in this thread here... Openhand's Conscious Cafe
