Oddbean new post about login | logout Saw this funny meme yesterday... On one side of the image was a spirituality beginner starter pack picturing gemstones, yoga, meditation poses and sound medicine bowls and on the other side in contrast was the spiritual veteran advanced pack - coffee and cigarettes. https://image.nostr.build/ed8929bea3cb68511b3d5e3aca00b7846d545e61c69ab9e3911fc6aafb020dc2.jpg It makes me laugh, as I am packing and getting ready to move to my next temporary abode and I get a glimpse of this ceremonial organic smoking bear blend I've been carrying around in my suitcases for the last 1.5 years. I literally got the best white elephant Christmas gift. But the last time I rolled one was literally 9 months ago (been protecting my lungs). https://image.nostr.build/6557814ad5d6b2f8367be77d84bc89282e0492320e93ffb5f2a7b1b59043ae5d.jpg The last couple of weeks have been an interesting test around reaching out to old coping and soothing mechanisms. I've had this urge to smoke some cannabis several times especially when I've gotten a wif of it in my surrounding vicinity. But I don't have any. One time I spent a few minutes on my walk searching for bay area delivery services on my phone, when I passed through a weed smelling cloud. I was like "omfg, I just wanna a joint in my mouth right now". And tell ya what there's a ton of weed delivery services ariund. But I let it go. https://image.nostr.build/e75f3dd29278dac44e0a5e1eede11d6df0b406ac6d39efd43169e0e90580a836.jpg I am starting to even wonder if I should smoke this blend now... Lol... It's actually really cool... It maybe the chill pill I've been needing...
just smoke some good weed
Mix the bear blend with some cannabis.
An interesting blend i grow most of these items but smoke none of them. i am not as stringent as you are as i over consume cannabis. Might i suggest a healthier routine. Maybe treat yourself to a massage or build a tranquil night for yourself when you get this feeling.
Beautiful. I love that you grow these. Don't get me wrong I love Santa Maria and have communed with the cannabis medicine my fair share. But also I am weary of my lungs and in hard times when I've exibitted over reliance on it as a soothing and coping mechanism I have eventually had to switch to edibles and oil as the very act of smoking kind of quickly becomes a fixation. But yeah, it been months since I last did partake. I actually would love to find myself this particular strain - it's either dutch treat or dutch train. I discovered it about a decade ago and at the time it was super supportive in my work and creative endeavours. I've been thinking about it. As far as the suggestions, thank you and absolutely. My self care is top priority and comes first. Which reminds me an Epson salt bath tonight might be a wonderful idea. 🥰 Oh, btw what strains to you grow?
My apologies, I missed mullein. I mix that with my canabis i find i don’t cough when i combine it. Beyond that i have valerin, mugwort, marmellow, lavender, and wormwood. I am also growing comfrey and anise, sage, bergamot.
Very cool! Yeah, mullein has that soothing effect on the lungs for sure. :) Do you mainly use these herbs for teas or you make tinctures etc?
I made 4 tinctures last fall. Dandelion, sage, borage, and mugwort. Unfortunately i have yet to try them. Otherwise we have made tea from the others. We have a liquorice mint which is a phenomenal tea
