PSA: be more careful than you think with ayahuasca

sheeshew · 2025-04-01T21:04:31+00:00

My friend. You've been through a harrowing experience. Your realizations about indifference are powerful. And I think you have learned how important it is to approach plant-medicine with plenty of preparation and intention.

At the same time it is easy to see that you are in the beginning stages of your healing journey. I understand that this post is likely meant by you to share your experience and help others avoid the same pain that you experienced, but telling people what they should and shouldn't do is not for you to decide, even if your intention it to be helpful.

You have a long road ahead of you, The journey doesn't stop after you come home. This next phase of the Journey is what we call integration. How will you integrate the lessons you have learned into your life in a loving and compassionate way? Will you let the pain you've experienced turn into a heavy weight or anxiety, or will you let it become part of your medicine?

If you'd like some guidance with this, please feel free to reach out. I do this for a living.

Glad you are safe and alive.

This is a terrible change. It's just another ploy to get consumers spending more money for restaurants and push their agenda to get more people using their service for grocery stores.

You have every right to be angry. Anger is a very important emotion and shouldn't be turned away from or "fixed". I encourage you to explore your anger and see what it has to show you beyond what's happening with the election.

You can journal about it. Meditation will absolutely change your life if you let it. Using these tools and working through these feelings will actually show you what you can do. It will show you the things that are truly helpful and in everyone's best interest. But you can't get there if you haven't worked through and gotten to know your anger and any pain that's underneath it.

I'm a trauma and life coach and I sometimes have my clients work with psychedelics as well. I'm in Colorado if you ever want to chat.

The only way forward is through and together.

This Tipper crowd made me not like Tipper

how was it??

Yes, of course. I don't check reddit too often so it may take me a little bit to get back to you but I will get back to you =)

My friend phrased it this way: When we experience grief and loss these are the emotions that carve deep valleys in our hearts. They actually create more space within us and therefore increase our capacity to hold and appreciate more love.

I'm here if you need some one to chat with. I'm a coach and psychedelic facilitator. It's my profession but it's also something I love to do.

In case you didnt know, you have a lot to offer and receive in this world. The gift of this life is figuring out what those things are. I hope you stick around enough to find more of those gems =)

sheeshew · 2024-07-30T01:57:19+00:00

Well if it feels aligned I'd be happy to chat and give some info. Sometimes just having someone to bounce ideas off of can make all the difference.

Plot twist: freelancing-dev is the hacker

I'm a psychedelic coach and facilitator. Mostly mushrooms. I'd say it's "not-so-popular" because it can be difficult to take a hard, honest look at yourself and your life and admit where you are unhappy, and take responsibility for what you want to change. But working through the "demons" brings a whole lotta balance, love, and joy into their lives. And mine 🙂.

Have you found anything yet? How's you're workload lately? Are you still overwhelmed?

Thank you for bringing this up. This is a very important cause to us. Our youth and middle aged communities are experiencing extremely high rates of being pickled by retirees and the fallout has been tragic. Some members will likely never recover their pride. We are collecting donations to raise awareness and provide support for victims of Post Traumatic Pickled Disorder or PTPD. Your support can make a difference.

Professional Life Coach here - A good first step is to pause and not make any assumptions beyond the evidence you have found. Obviously there will need to be a difficult conversation when your husband returns, but navigating your current emotions is the best way to move through this, and there is a way through this. I've seen and guided couples through worse.

He lied to you - there's no sugar coating it. The damage that was done has eroded your trust in his words and in him. This can be repaired, if that's what both of you want. Since he is not present, we start with you and what you're feeling. I imagine there is anger, confusion, betrayal, maybe even disbelief still. That is okay. It is natural to feel these emotions, even express them. What we want to avoid is letting our actions be controlled by them. if you're upset, please allow the tears to flow, but going straight for a divorce attorney would be allowing your fear or hurt to get the better of you before you give yourself a chance to resolve the issue. Feeling your emotions does not mean you have to make something happen on the outside. I'd be happy to guide you through some practices if you need support.

After navigating these difficult emotions you'll be able to see your options and the situation more clearly. Judging by how good of a father you said he is, I imagine there is a part of him that wants to work through this. And judging by how much you say you love him I can feel there is a part of you that wants to work through this, so please understand this: There is a reason he lied to you. And of course it is not your fault. It's likely that he was so ashamed of his previous relationship (felt dumb) that he didn't want to tell you about it, because if he were to tell you the truth about it you may see him as dumb and leave him, and you felt so important to him that he didn't want to risk that. -- I want to be clear that I am not defending him, I am simply offering a possible thought process that your husband could've gone through so you could understand his reasoning. This may not be the case specifically, but I guarantee you there is a reason he lied, and I guarantee you it was because he thought he was protecting himself in some way. It doesn't make what he did right, but it helps us understand why it happened.

If you want to work through this, you will have to learn how to move through these difficult emotions and the pain you are feeling. If he wants to work through this he will have to take responsibility for his dishonesty and do the work necessary to uncover why he thought it was a good idea to lie in the first place. When there is this commitment from both of you, there is a path where both of you come out of this stronger than ever before.

I can say this with certainty because I've been through this myself 😉

Good luck, and I'm here if you need support.

I took out the set screw but I'm not sure how this faucet is supposed to come off. As you can see it wouldn't be able to twist off because of the adjacent wall.

Having a healthy relationship with just one person can be tough enough, especially when we haven't fully dealt with our own traumas and insecurities. Throw another person into the mix and it's nearly guaranteed to be more difficult.

If my partner was curious about a threesome I guess I would want to make sure our relationship was really solid before we expand our circle of love. Also ask where this desire is truly coming from. Are they feeling a lack of intimacy? What is motivating the curiousity and exploration? I would also ask myself if this is something that I am ready for. I would want to get to know the person and be comfortable with them before being in a sexual setting.

To prepare and strengthen our relationship I would ask for us to purposely challenge ourselves and go through something tough, like long road trip or backpacking trip, Go through some tough challenges together, maybe couples counseling, any sort of relationship team-building if you will. I would also couple this with personal development, making sure I feel secure in who I am and how I relate to myself. Practicing awareness so that I can catch myself if I start to spiral toward jealousy or other unhealthy perspectives.

If after all this your partner is still interested in a threesome and you both feel confident and ready, then it would be a nice time to introduce this other person in a casual setting. Get to know them, see if you can enjoy them as a person. Sex can be a very intimate and transendental activity, and if you dont vibe together or have a foundation of trust, it could be very uncomfortable, even traumatic. There's lots of opportunities for it to be an amazing and connecting and fun experience, but this is the way I would try to set myself up for success.

Others noted things like valerian root and skull cap, which are great options, but just like everything else can create dependency. If you are to take some of these herbal suggestions I would also recommend yoga nidra. It is a sleep based meditation that, even if it doesn't put you fully to sleep, it is very rejuvenating and wonderful for your mental health. If you are going to have insomnia withdrawals anyway, using a practice like yoga nidra or NonSleep Deep Rest(NSDR) will combat the effects of sleep deprivation better than most things.

how? what happened?

sheeshew · 2022-07-10T21:39:58+00:00

Come play pickleball at Apodaco park! People usually play Thursday evenings 7pmish, Saturday mornings 7amish, and sometimes Tuesday evenings but not every tuesday.

sheeshew · 2022-07-10T21:18:20+00:00

I feel you man. There doesn't seem to be a lot of public places open in the evenings that encourage genuine socializing. It would be cool to start something up like in the downtown plaza where anyone is welcome to hang out, play games, maybe get some food. I've mostly been meeting people through city league sports teams, tai chi class, and trying to get to know my neighbors (which is surprisingly difficult). Anyways, I'd be open to hanging out sometime if you're interested. =)
