When In Doubt, See if There's Something You Can Relax - Red Things on Tuesday
When In Doubt, See if There's Something You Can Relax - Red Things on TuesdayThis is one of the best pieces of advice I've gotten from a psychedelic guide, "When in doubt, relax." When I'm upset, something is tight. When I'm in conflict with someone, or myself, something is tight. When I'm ruminating, perseverating, or looping uncreatively, something is tight. There is a tension in my body that I can literally use as a barometer to determine if my thoughts are helpful. If it's tight, whatever I'm thinking isn't going to lead to much good. I have a practice of relaxing the tension, then trying to solve the problem without it coming back. If the tension comes back, I don't have the right answer yet. The solutions I come to from this intentionally relaxed place are always kinder, more open, and productive. Wild. I suggest you find your inner compass. I bet it's there. Try to find it. See how it works. See how it guides you. See how softness and relaxation guide you to a better future. Podcast with Joe Longo from Inspire Create Manifest About Integration and Yoga

Dust off your integration one more time, make it shine The boy jumped in bed at 630 this morning. He curled up under the covers and didn’t say anything. I rubbed his back for a moment and then sat up, taking the opportunity to meditate. I like when we get a chance to sit quietly together, it doesn’t happen much. He’s energetic. The nervous system experts love to talk about co-regulation. About how vibing together is a great practice. That’s how the morning started, just vibing and breathing....
Integration is the Bridge Between Vision and Reality Our Psychedelic Visions rarely survive first contact with reality. Sometimes, in our journeys, we have grand visions and ideas, amazing plans for the future. However, more often than not, they melt away when the light hits them. Sometimes we expect the seas to part for us like we're Moses. Or that, like Kevin Costner, they will come if we build it. Rarely is this the case. The world doesn't owe it to us to make our sacred mission easy. Some...
Happy Birthday Dad, So Long Bobby. My dad turns 83 today. Happy Birthday, Dad! One of my fondest childhood memories was road-tripping in the back seat, listening to my dad's oldies. He had a box of (K-Tel?) cassettes he ordered from a tv commercial, and would cycle through them on the way to go skiing, or to the shore. I grew up listening to 'Tell Laura I Love Her', 'Blue Moon', and 'Leader of the Pack.' We love music. I'm grateful he instilled that in me. Thanks, Dad. I feel grateful that my...
