My Mantra.

My Mantra.

My mantra is the sound of the rain, but as well I use kratom for a deeper effect.
For some time, I was having panic attacks, all this pandemic situation really messed me up. Eventually while sitting at home, mediation seemed to me a good hobby, to relax my mind and body, and I were usually doing it with the sounds of the rain, since I love falling asleep on the sounds of the rain. However, after a few weeks this wasn't working, so I began to look online for some help, and this help apparently were herbs, and it actually makes sense. After some time reading the article, I found out that kratom, is one of the solution, after cannabis, but I am not big of weed, so I bought kratom online and it was really worth it.

For me it's being surrounded by my Yucatan friends gazing at the stars on a wild beach smoking some local landrace weed. And yes drinking some good red wine at the same time without saying a word.

I always look at my wife and say “what’s the motto”? She almost always answers me “fuck it isn’t the answer to everything” I disagree, I find it works well in most situations.

Walks in a forest or perhaps any natural area without the sound or sight of humans and all their things. Always brings me to a more peaceful feeling.

I used to love going for a bike cruise on a nice day.

Staying away from negative energy it could be person, place or object. If i'm not feeling good vibes from it i walk away, turn it off. I cook, garden and watch nature. I also like to use a chainsaw, ice pick and shovel for exercise. Find humor.......there all assholes with tiny brains.

Boy! We do think alike 😳

I myself have suffered serious panic attacks, anxiety, ptsd, and straight up fucked up since my Fiance' passed away almost 5 years ago now. She was 38. I turned to the bottle and tried my damnedest to catch her. I lived like dogshit for 3 years. After a few Kambo sessions, I was finally free. Haven't drank in 18 months now. I have now learned to appreciate little things in life and say "its all about being on the right side of the roots now". I have now decided to fuck the 9-5 shit jobs and do what I love (growing). Good friends, good weed, laughter and good music are my best recommendation for you. All of this will pass with time I tell myself. Everyone has battles and I have faith you will come out stronger. Enjoy the journey and stay strong. You got this!!!!

Listening to good music helps me tremendously with Whats going on in our world today.
Panic attacks- are very real, when it's gets real bad, I take half of a scud missile aka 2mg Zanax.
Plus whatever you do ,do not watch cable news, that helps me a whole bunch.
Being kind to people, out to be everyone's mantra.

Went for an MRI.... after 2 tries and freakin out in the tube, they gave me 1mg Xanax .... whew.... great beat of that magnetic ticking sound and then BAM...wake me when it’s over.. 2mg...holy mackerel

[YYCannabis]

“Ah...for Fuck’s sake”

and

”Can’t fix stupid”

Usually one of those mantras helps me get through most of my daily struggles. 😂

[Xena]

Went thru the drive-thru a little while ago and the girl working the window had a tat on her forearm “live the life you love”.....I liked that.

[PRIMO]

A quiet commune with nature,peyote buttons, and fermented agave juice. Not required but highly recommended

[Farmall]

Fermented agave juice? Perfect ! Never heard it put THAT way...👏

[lysagrey93]

For f*cks sake and screw this sh*t I'm out. I am joking of course but sometimes it does help to just cuss all your worries out. I have been fighting sever anxiety for a few years already and it has not been a walk in the park I will tell you that. I have been to many different therapies and support groups. I have tried yoga drawing pottery and every other mind numbing activity you can imagine. Some of them help but it' always kind of a temporary thing.
A lot of people in my classes knowing my problem suggested I try kratom. It in no way is a permanent solution but they said that they have used it and that it does help if you find the right type for you. I was kind of skeptical but by that point I was willing to try anything. I did some research and settled on bali kratom. I have been taking it for a few months now and it does help with my anxiety. It is not a permanent solution like my friends said but it is easy to carry around and honestly I like it better then weed. It makes me more focused. Anyways I think that if you are struggling you should give it a try

[Mlevy420]

Might I suggest some Psilocybin therapy involving microdosing? It has worked wonders with my anxiety and panic attacks. Definitely worth looking into. I wish you the best for quickly finding the solution and to many greater days!

[changeofpace2014]

Thats funny..i remember the old days and any form of hallucinogenic is the last thing one should do if they are not in a good place (state of mind)..

Nothing like a full body relaxation meditation when you're feeling a little grouchy.

Try this:

Especially helpful after a few tokes of CBD.

It`s either (currently) old school Polish punk, the Be Good Tanyas or the Medicine Buddha mantra....it`s often a very strange experience being in my head

[PLreef]
