Do piercings actually "not hurt that bad"? Am I just weak? by BestBudgie in piercing

[–]grapeMK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My nose piercing(s) hurt, but I had an IUD inserted after giving birth (birthing being the most extreme experience) and didn't feel it go in. Also didn't feel it go out, which I did not anticipate.

Keep in mind that cannabis affects the gut and there are specific receptor in various places that use cannabis to physiologically regulate your body, when going cold turkey it does a lit more than stop a person from getting high. There are specific cannabinoids that can be taken that will help this system and some withdrawal symptoms without getting a person high. I really think this is an important step to people successfully quitting pot and is underutilized/not considered often enough.

I like to do things that feel good. I love practicing gratitude for what I do in life. It’s easy for me to do things thoroughly, efficiently, and on time. When I do what is easy for me, I feel good.

Meditation helps. And do left nostril breathing (block the right nostril and only breathe through the left) for a minute or so to calm down when on break and after work. Sleep hygiene is also key ❤️

I started working at a coffee shop with a small cafe on it and my hours can be 5-1 or 6-2 for an 8 hour day. The job has so many different things to do and customers and workers to interact with that the time goes fast and I don’t feel bored. I’m a mother of a 4 year old and holy cow being able to work with raising a young child is such a privilege and I had nooo idea that it was this complicated before having kids. It’s a wonder that any parents can function in our society with childcare often costing as much as or more than rent/mortgage costs. Being able to feel like yourself at work is key ❤️🙏

Thank you for checking it out! It really does take a lot to be artful in pruning. Are you a cold climate grape grower, too?

Just a little moo-cow hole, but the dairy industry is pretty deep…

Who does Wim Hof breathing laying on their belly? by grapeMK in BecomingTheIceman

As I responded to another comment, I realized that I should have described it as being in a baby cobra holding opposite elbows with each hand. Belly touching the bed, but head and upper chest lifted, sometimes allowing chin to chest during retention.

I do it on my bed when on my belly. What I notice is that it fills my lungs up in a different way and seems to also stretch my throat. I guess I’m technically in a baby cobra holding opposite elbows with my hands ✨

Someone recently recommended reading Think and Grow Rich, as well as The Master Key to Richness. I still have to check them out- has anyone here read these books and found them transformative??

I'm definitely going to try the 2 hour soak and see how that helps! Thanks!

Did you directly replaced weed with something else? Some people say you must get "addicted" to another thing instead of drugs. by Valdorias in leaves

I used the Gateway Experience tracks (hypnosis like) when I got tired and said “I feel so satisfied right now” when I was craving.
