A bit of freedom dies every minute you don't watch this video (or read the post if you prefer)

So I was inspired by @valorforfreedom and @bobaphet’s live stream yesterday. (You can see it here) Let you define you and your values, not anyone else, community, or government. That community idea sounds awesome @bobaphet. I wrote something on that myself, let’s see if I can dig it out: what is your ideal societal structure? So I was encouraged to do my bit to encourage people to unplug from the matrix, find their passion and live their freedom.

How to Live The Life of Your Dreams Part 3

Part 3: Considering the Reality of What You Want

As you start to uncover the true nature of what drives you, it can still be tricky to make a firm choice and decide on just one path of action.

One way to help in this situation is to consider what your ideas would look like if you put them into reality. We have been looking at potential suitable careers (although, personally I would stay away from anything that involves a boss that is not you), but it is a good way of explaining what I mean here...

Peanut Butter Cups with Chocolate - Weekend FOODPORN

https://steemitimages.com/0x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXBnbkCf5CPpTnUAjh2zYRiY2jGNvAPxcEEwXXiStXBaT/chocolate%20cups%20(1%20von%207).jpg

Hi dear friends!! What about a real delicious weekend treat? Only for peanut butter lovers and chocoholics please!!;) This treat is super simple (as always!), with only 3 ingredients and quite healthy if you use organic products, and raw sugar-free chocolate! Sorry for being very inactive lately, but as you know I am in Sweden and not having access to the internet the whole time. Forgive me for this, but I will be back to normal in a few days when I back in Austria! (Because yes, I am going back)

Back to life

Back to live! Yes, a shift happened. A shift doesn’t come from the outside, it happens to you inside your heart. You are making a conscious choice, and the universe will answer.

Answers I have found peace again, with myself, with the world, and with my partner. The only relationship you have in this life is the one with yourself. (Words of a very wise woman, Byron Katie) The relationship you have with other people is just a reflection of the one you have with your own thoughts, emotions, and mindset. This is very hard to grasp for someone who thinks the only struggle they have is other people. But we are fighting, denying, lying, being hard to only our own mind and believes.

My Personal Morning Ritual, and Why You Should Create One Too

Hello beautiful human! Hope this post finds you well and happy, and that you’re day/evening is off to a great start. ✨ 💗

A few days ago I made a post about some things that I highly recommend, and one of those things was to create a morning ritual for yourself. I believe that creating a morning routine is one of the best ways to activate the highest version of yourself, and enable yourself to start each day on the best foot. Check out the full post here.

Mandala Art... And the benefits of a creative practice

Hello beautiful Steem friend 🌟 Yes, that's you! Hope you're having a beautiful day today, and that you can feel the virtual love I'm sending your way.

Today I just wanted to share a little bit of my artwork with you all, and talk about the benefits I find in having creative practices in place.

I haven't been able to find much time to draw, or paint, or craft lately, because I've been focusing more on some other aspects of my life. But arts and crafts will always be one of my favorite ways to destress and unwind, and get out of my own head.

I'm Okay: A New Perspective 🙄

I have to thank all of those who commented on my plea for help yesterday. I find it remarkable that Steemfolk jumped into 'help' mode even if some of you didn't know me that well. It's a great reminder to all of us that no matter how bad things get there is always, always someone there to care and to help you out, no matter what. Sometimes we can feel really alone, but that's because people just don't know how we are coping - they can't read minds, after all!

Stripping Paint: Anxiety as A Constant Companion

Dear Steemfriends, I guess this is a little raw plea to any of you that might have a solution or advice to what to do about my sensitivity. Is it just who I am? Is there a cure? Is it just something I embrace as part of my complex, vibrating, alive is-ness? Is anxiety always going to rattle my bones?

As a kid, I’m told, overexcitement would see me running in circles and being a little bit overwrought. Nothing unusual – all kids do this. You know the story – no red cordial or loud music before bed time, or you won’t sleep (not that Mum would ever give me red cordial!).

Moving Sucks!!

Did you miss me? I've been in the trenches of moving hell. I hate to see what my discord messages look like. Even my Steemit replies must be a scene. We don't yet have internet in the new house, so I'm just writing this up from my bed in my new house. I'm currently surrounded in boxes! Moving is sort of like having a baby in that you don't really remember how intense birth or tiny babies are, so you lose your mind and decide to do it again. This was a quick move, so it's been extra intense. Eleven days from the first time I saw it to the day we moved. It's also a divorce move, so, yeah.

Wheatgrass Magic - Some Amazing Evidence-Based Reasons to Get Your Shot

We don't do regular shots (except B12 or maybe tetanus & rabies in a crisis) but I do THESE shots. Often. Everytime I go into town (maybe 5 times/week), in fact. Wheatgrass. Gotu-Kola. Turmeric-Ginger-Lime. One shot of each, washed down with my favourite #9 green juice - celery, cucumber, pineapple & sunflower sprouts with added spirulina. A great investment in myself.

Excessive? Depends on what level of "normal" you want to live at and what you want to achieve. Me? I want to be hyper alert, intensely creative, self-healing, leading the pack & highly effective with exceptional mental clarity.

A message to victims of physical and psychological abuse

I have been thinking about writing this for a couple of days now and am still not sure if I will be able to say everything I want to and make a powerful enough text that will make a difference to somebody. My hope that it will is strong and sometimes helping even one person is good enough because that one person maybe needed exactly this to help herself. This is one of those topics that I am very sensitive about and if anything can get me to show my teeth it is the subject of abuse, any abuse.

What, when, how and other questions/answers about MUSCLE SORENESS (DOMS)

If you ever tried exercising and either pushed yourself to your limits or exercised after a long period of avoiding exercise, you are familiar with the fact that your muscles went rogue on you after. Maybe you had troubles lifting a glass or brushing your teeth and maybe every step you took was incredibly painful. This happened because of DOMS - delayed onset muscle soreness.It can happen to anyone Yes it can. It really can happen to anyone, from professional athletes to us regular people and even children.

Iron-chef : sweet potato and egg plant mouse

This week's iron chef challenge was to create a desert with a common vegetable. It seemed like quite a hard challenge at first but after some thought its not that unusual, carrot cake is very common, beetroot is often used to make red velvet cake, in Japan they use adzuki beans in deserts and Chinese use mushrooms and egg as a desert.

Indonesian taditional natural remedy for mosquitos bites

Right now I'm staying in a northern lombok village in Indonesia. I was invited by my friend Adi who is presenting this video about a traditional and natural remedy to sooth itchy mosquito bites. I've been using the paste today and has been soothing the bites a lot. He calls the herb he uses in local language 'imba' in Indonesian 'Daun Mimba' biological name azadirachta indica known as Neem in English. This is ground with tumeric and a little salt.

I climbed a tree, and I liked it. Ulog #4 - Working my way back around to Treeplanting Treeplanters

We have been out and about in Wisconsin, meeting up with friends and family as much as we can. We are doing our best to continue to develop the discipline of writing, turning our ever expanding collection of photographs into deposits onto this blockchain. So here is the story of one such visit, and the mulberry tree I fell in love with. Back yards are the magical realm of creativity! Not all people feel this way, but luckily some still do. We were out in one such back yard with some loved ones, and a couple of cameras. We were finding flowers, insects, butterflies, animals and lots and lots of fun.
