I second the sex one, but I'd prefer to see it more spiritually done. No sex, no orgasm. Spend the time learning how to rechannel sex energy and/or move it up your spine.

While you are at it, train like a warrior. The two go hand-in-hand: I don't mean the 45 minutes gym workout you are using. I mean get a teacher and spend a few hours everyday training like your life depended on it. Have them give you exercises for channeling chi and all the other fun stuff that takes time to develop. Pound mungbeans. All those things. The whole time, you are channeling sex energy. This is something I'd love to try myself (which I think a lot of people are suggesting so they can live vicariously through you).

You talk about pushing outside your comfort zone - without knowing what makes you uncomfortable, thats hard to do. So far from the stuff I've read I haven't seen a lot of your Un-comfort zones or fears. You are advanced developmentally enough that you might not *have* a lot of them. SO what could they be? Maybe if we extrapolate (these can be totally off base, but without more info its hard to make it up):

you have no problems with speaking to groups - maybe this is due to a fear of one-on-one conversation with difficult people - so take a trial where you spend 30 days working with angry, difficult criminals in an outreach program, giving them love.
you have no problems with being healthy and physical - maybe this is due to a fear of violating the organic body - so take a trial where you 'Borg yourself. Get those magnetic fingertip implants, the belt that lets you know where magnetic north is, get a tattoo, etc.
You haven't mentioned pets all that much. Pick an animal you are afraid of and adopt it/work with it for 30 days. Even Steve Irwin was afraid of Parrots!
I don't see a lot of "heavy lifting" talk - i.e. ditch digging, heavy manual labor, things people (not necessarily you) sometimes feel they are 'above' once they get rich enough to have someone do it, etc. maybe you hate it - so take a trial where you pick something you have to build/do that will take mostly all of the 30 days. Build a gazebo with power, landscaping, etc. Get dirty, sweaty, and do bone-weary labor for 30 days.
