MY TOOLBOX
If it were only as simple as a few puffs… cannabis, patience and a lot of soul searching.
TOOLS
MEDITATION
Transcendental Meditation. I gauge my mental health by the quality of my meditation. An investment that pays me back daily.
MANTRAS
Mine is “It’s in G_ds hands.” I say it to myself while I fall asleep, the second I wake up, and many annoying moments in between. Nervous system reset.
SIMPLICITY AND SELF-ACCEPTANCE
The practice of simplicity and self-acceptance navigating my choices has brought me growth and inner peace every single step of the way.
TANTRA
Sensuality, sexuality, spirituality, energy weaving and expansion. Partner/no partner…that’s irrelevant. Many call it The Way.
QUIET AND REST
Essential for mental health and higher thinking.
PRAYER AND SPIRITUALITY
My answers come through the timing of my daily hits and misses that coincide with physical people, words or events. And they are loud and clear when my mind, body and spirit are completely in sync. This is my all day, ongoing, never ending, always thought provoking conversation with G_d.
YOGA
The art of being light through the breath.
THE SUN AND SUNSHINE
I wake up with the sunrise. It connects me to the Earth and stimulates my mind and spirit in the most gentle, quiet and beautiful way. Those first few minutes soaking in the bright sun…heaven
AYURVEDIC MEDICINE
Follow the Earth’s cycle without rigid rules.
FRIENDSHIP
The most underrated medicine.
JOURNALING
A great way to stop the circling.
Here’s how mine goes.
Dear G_d,
Vent! Write what you wouldn’t dare say out loud.
What could you have done to make it better? (If you say nothing, try again.)
What was the lesson?
How are you prepared to do better the next time?
Thank you for….fill in the blank
I love you.
CANNABIS
A gift from Mother Nature that I can tailor to my needs. It’s a tool for higher thinking both spiritually and intellectually — I owe my finance career to this plant. It calms my nervous system, which makes everything better. And it puts me in a better mood every single time. The quality of my life is much better because of her:)
PLEASURE
Or what’s the point of all of this?
MOVE
Most cannabis people dance in the mirror. It’s true. I took an Instagram poll, 89 PCT said yes:) The Class (Newsletter No.10), Gyrotonic and Feldenkrais are also in this mix.
WEEP OR ROAR
Get the anger and frustration out. Seriously, GET IT THE FUCK OUT OF THE BODY. Taryn Toomey cracked this one open for me. Newsletter No.10
MUSIC
I hope in this life I’ll be able to put into words what music and my precious headphones do for me.
SOCIAL MEDIA BREAKS
Take a long break from the mind junk. A great way to recenter and feel human again.
VIDEOS
This is a new one, and wildly effective. Stay tuned for a better explanation…giving it a few more weeks.
BE LOVE AND WISH EVERYONE WELL
The Goal.
