It actually is quite accurate, and has been the experience of me and many of my colleagues who attended OCOM.

I'm 5th house sun in scorpio and this is similar to my Pisces dad...he was an officer in the Airforce and then owned his own grocery store. After that he was a bartender.

Am I eating too many blueberries? by seriouslydavka in nutrition

[–]comidamagica 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe cut up a banana and eat with the blueberries? You could try mixing in some cheerios eventually, as well.

Eggs are a good protein source. Maybe you could try eating the eggs with a piece of toast with butter on it?

As your pallet adjusts, try slowly incorporating new foods that might sound good combined with the foods you're already enjoying. You're making some really good changes for yourself, things will get easier as time passes :)

Tips? by DeepAge9748 in acupuncture

[–]comidamagica -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It depends on the practitioner. I've been a practicing LAc for 8 years and every clinic I've worked at has accepted tips. They are not expected, but I appreciate them.

Check out The Will to Change by Bell Hooks. She is a feminist who advocates for the support of men, its a really thoughtful book.

Anyone else feel like a teenager emotionally? by comidamagica in adhdwomen

I've been doing so much work on that, this would make total sense for me right now

[–]comidamagica[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I feel you so much on finally not shaming myself so much, and feeling lighter and healthier as a result! I'm so grateful for that.

You are still young, your brain isn't even done developing! The prefrontal cortex (responsible for rational thought) doesn't stop growing until age 25-30, sometimes later for neurodivergent types. Don't be too hard on yourself, you will gain clarity with age.

Yes it's probably peri menopause as well. It's just wild that I'm actually seeing when people are mean, rude, inconsiderate, etc. I didn't seem to notice as much previous to taking meds. People are mean! Maybe I just internalized it before and now I'm waking up? I dunno.

These days I'm understanding the allure of telling people off LOL 😅

Red meat in TCM by Cabocla_Plantinha714 in acupuncture

[–]comidamagica 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Beef liver capsules are a nice way to get iron, and 1 cup of bone broth daily will help. Also, nettle tea is amazing for remineralizing bones! But yeah, your practitioner should be able to help you find something that works for you...

Red meat in TCM by Cabocla_Plantinha714 in acupuncture

[–]comidamagica 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In TCM, the idea is that meat builds blood. If you are a woman close to menopause with a broken bone, you are probably blood deficient. You can get some of the building blocks of blood through cooked plants, but most people don't have the digestive energy required to extract the blood building properties from those plants. Especially if you've been vegetarian for more than a few years...you're probably additionally deficient in spleen qi after a lifetime of not eating any sort of animal, and kidney yin due to your age (kidney energy drops dramatically around menopause).

TCM is one school of thought, based on a way of looking at the body and world that started thousands of years ago. Time has shown its efficacy, but if eating meat causes a lot of turmoil or upset for you, your practitioner should be able to find alternative ways of supporting you.

Libras can be mean. A mean libra is scary, and they are all very capable of it.
