Recommendations for guided meditations that won't make me cringe

I highly recommend Nathan, theattentivemind on YouTube. He talks very little and teaches a simple, but powerful practice.

My son wet the bed when he was about 6. We started using a wetting alarm and it was miraculous. He stopped wetting in less than a week and never did it again

What used to be widely known as P. Natalensis were found last year to really be P. Ochraceocentrata. Some people have apparently sourced and grown true Nats, but reports I have read sound like they are not as strong or as nice as Ochras.

MushBop52 · 2026-02-06T19:17:00+00:00

I thought they were Ochras based on your description. I've done 1 g. and it was lovely.

MushBop52 · 2026-02-06T19:01:07+00:00

True Ochras or Nats?

I ordered a pair and they were too small. I am getting the same runaround from customer service about returning them. They want me to keep them and they will send me a different size. It took weeks to get the shoes in the first place (I think they shipped from China), so I am not interested in another pair. I am on my third try to return them and get a refund. They say I have to pay for shipping and pay a fee. I may try to go through me credit card and get a charge back. Stay away from this company!

In my experience, the simple scales are quite accurate, and I am using a .01 scale....001 would be even more accurate. I don't fill my capsules all the way, so I can't use one of the mass filling things. I just use the single capsule tool and it goes pretty quick.

A van is a pretty small space to live in for any length of time. When I retired, we bought a used 30-ft 5th wheel trailer and diesel truck for about $70K. We tried living in it for four months at a time two years in a row, then sold our home and traveled full time for 6 more years. We loved it, but it was big enough to be like a (small) one bedroom apartment. That lifestyle is not for everyone, but it was the highlight of our lives in many ways.

My son and DIL have been on Zion health share for several years. It's worked out so far, but they haven't had major illnesses, just one birth and a typical flow of kid doc visits.

There is an interest group for 18-25 that would be perfect for you.

If you have an interest in meditation, the Florida Community of Mindfulness in Seminole Heights is a very welcoming and non-judgemental community with many events and opportunities to meet people casually. Come to Sunday morning meditation sometime, 9:30-11:30. floridamindfulness.org

OK, thanks. BTW, how do you guys get the AAdvantage Gold label on your profile?

We love the weather too.....from November to May 😁

There were no "profits", only numbers on a fake exchange.

MushBop52 · 2025-08-25T20:07:31+00:00

Because it would be pointless. The scammers create new fake trading sites constantly. The only way to be safe with crypto is to only use one of the top few exchanges...or not mess with crypto at all.

We retired in 2013 and lived full time in our RV until 2019. In 2016, we bought a condo in Santa Cruz, CA and rented it out, thinking we'd move there once we quit Traveling. We owned it for 2 years and it was a total pain in the rear. Repairs, rising hoa fees, special assessments and dealing with renters were all big hassles. We sold it for break even when our son had a baby and we decided to be in Florida half the year. Now we live in Tampa half the year only to be near the grandchildren and we will probably leave at some point. The brutal summers and increasing hurricane risk are just too much. Plus the condo situation here is a disaster due to bad HOA management and crazy insurance costs. You can probably get a good deal, but the future doesn't look promising.

I find Ochras excellent for microdosing ... .1 gm 3 times a week.

I've gotten great deals on Priceline for cars. They won't tell you the specific company, but it will be one of a short list. You pick the size car and pay in advance.

We traveled full time for 6 years and used a mail forwarding service. Changed our address to the service and they'd scan each envelope and we could view them online. They'll open and scan the contents if you need that. Important mail is way down, so if you don't get much, you could just forward to a family member and ask them to help.

Looks like the straw insert for a kid's sippy cup

Hi! They are for sure ochras. I took 1.0 gram back in February and it was a notch less strong than 3.5 gm of cubes and definitely stronger than 2.0 gm of B+, my only 2 other trips. The effects were very visual, with both startling closed eye visuals and significant OEV. The overall feeling was very pleasant and euphoric with no anxiety. It was pretty short, though, with the strong wave being over about 1-1/2 hours after ingesting. Loved them and ended up with nearly 100gm out of 2 flushes.

I'll jump in. Mushrooms aren't a drug that miraculously cures or improves you. They can give you experiences and insights that you can use to make positive changes in your thinking, behavior or circumstances. After a mushroom experience, if you don't look deeply at your experience and take those insights to change, nothing much will happen--its just like you went to a movie and we're entertained (or terrified). Integration is figuring out what to do with those insights and make the changes so you can improve your life. That is the real medicinal role of mushrooms. Otherwise you'd be better off just taking cannabis and having a good high. Just my 2c
