What are your mantras to get you through anxiety, panic, stress or despair?

Well besides reading the forum right now i'm watching our dog Sonny chasing squirrels out in the wooded area. He comes home just tongue hanging an thirsty. :) He parks his body right near the wood piles i can't say for sure but i'm also highly suspicious he's got wood rats cornered in those piles.
 
SoOrbudgal Well I hope it's not that type of rat. This is my little girl who come and climb on me.

Hey Farmbuck. We call them tree rats here. They tease my cat. She tries to chase them up a tree and they stop just above her and shake their tails at her. They know she's a terrible climber. Really funny to watch. One mantra for my wife and I is just get outside and breath.
 
Right there with ya Bowhunterwoody. Those squirrels drive our dogs nuts. They drop pine cones on them i watch them do it. One of our cat's sits at the base of the tree an i think she is communicating with it, i've seen them one time chase each other.
 
Well said ChefSheri! I actually decided to make a sourdough starter last October and it is still going strong. I was bored and going out of my mind with PHD (Post Harvest Depression) since I grow outdoors. I quickly started experimenting with using different ingredients for my boules. Kalamata olive with Rosemary is the favorite so far. Roasted garlic with everything seasoning is second. Trying a cinnamon raisin one tomorrow. It's been such a therapeutic endeavor!
 
Surely the answer to all the questions in the title of this thread is weed? I vote to rename it to ‘as well as weed...’ I’m just fucking with yous so I can see the posts for any ideas
 
Some things in life are bad, they can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse

When you're chewing on life's gristle, don't grumble give a whistle
This will help things turn out for the best

Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the right side of life

If life seems jolly rotten, there's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing

When you're feeling in the dumps, don't be silly, chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle, that's the thing

So, always look on the bright side of death
Just before you draw your terminal breath

Life's a counterfeit and when you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's the joke, it's true

You see, it's all a show, keep them laughing as you go
Just remember the last laugh is on you

Always look on the bright side of life
And always look on the right side of life
Always look on the bright side of life
And always look on the right side of life
 
Another way to really tune in, is when you're breaking up the soil from the last years containers. Busting up any clods, pulling out any rocks twigs, roots etc. Kind of like mixing up a batch of brownies with your hands. Adding the new ingredients and making sure everything is evenly mixed. Getting the container ready for the upcoming transplanting of a new gal. Very Zen like. A true labour of love. Like cooking and music, it's all about the prep work. The more you put into it, the more you get out of it. (I grow outdoors, but I bet the indoor growers have experienced something similar)
 
Definitely, working with weed is the closest I’ve come to working on bonsai. My tools are in use again!
 
You'll not fall apart....It is more important to fulfill your authentic desires than listen to your fears. So I'm trying to cope with the situation even when I feel the fear.
This shall pass...the most powerful words my parents told me from the very childhood in every bad situation. Now I'm using these words in any stressful situation and I'm trying to appeat to them seriously.
 
Weed helps me the most :D Also, I like taking some supplements and vitamins which I get from Canadian pharmacy mostly, and I think they are pretty good and working. Maybe you will find something interesting to you there as well, have a look and let me know what you think about it. Good luck with it, guys. Hope you will be alright!
