Last post by Blueberry - Today at 04:25:48 PMFrom the blurb: For me, the biggest thing I had to push through wasn't the outside world — it was my own self-limiting behaviors.
Not getting enough sleep.
Spending too much time on YouTube.
Not fully completing tasks.
Not taking full responsibility for the results I wanted to create.
Letting my untamed inner child run the show instead of connecting with him and bringing him onboard with my vision.
All of that was keeping me from the personal growth, joy, and contribution that I now know are possible. I used to think it was a lack of discipline. But it wasn't. It was old wiring — subconscious patterns designed to protect me that had long outlived their purpose.
Once I learned how to rewire those patterns, everything changed.
That's the journey I'll be sharing more about during my interview this Wednesday, where I'll talk about how breathwork and awareness helped me transform my self-limiting behaviors into clarity, purpose, and freedom.
We've brought together 50+ world-class experts in neuroscience, psychology, and transformation — including Jim Kwik, Kristin Neff, Peter Levine, Jessica Maguire, Dave Asprey, Nicole Sachs, John Gray and many more — to help you uncover the patterns that hold you back and rewire them at their source.

As always: These types of conferences and summits are always free during the conference. Once you sign up, you'll get a fair number of emails suggesting you pay for permanent access. That's really not necessary. The material gets recycled - it'll come up in another conference/summit in a few months!

Ideas/Tools for Recovery / Re: Three Good Things Today - ...
Last post by Blueberry - Today at 03:45:56 PM1) I did and enjoyed some garden work and even outside sweeping, all communal work rather than my own. Good to do that too tho. Gives me a sense of purpose atm
2) I found a huge bunch of red roses on the free pantry shelf, brought them home and now have 2 vases in separate rooms
3) Had a nice chat with one of my neighbours when working in garden

Physical Issues / Re: Scarlet fever/Tonsillitis ...
Last post by Blueberry - Today at 03:05:09 PMQuote from: sanmagic7 on Today at 12:48:57 PMso i can totally see why it wouldn't have been listed as a 'cause'
Just to clear up any confusion, or is the negative a typo? - Anxiety was given as a possible cause! It's cptsd that they didn't have as a cause. In this case, I'm happy that they have anxiety instead because that way it's narrowed down for me. But of course if anxiety isn't commonly seen as part and parcel of cptsd in some other countries, then that's a great pity. Means some people are going to miss out on the information.
Quote from: sanmagic7 on Today at 12:48:57 PMand, i actually had a huge bout of this the other nite, due, i am sure, by my anxiety over the doc appt. i went to yesterday. major chills for nearly 2 hrs., bundled up to sleep out in the living room, slept 2 hrs., woke up feeling feverish and hot, and went to bed.
Oh, I'm so sorry san!
Please rest up good

Physical Issues / Re: Scarlet fever/Tonsillitis ...
Last post by sanmagic7 - Today at 12:48:57 PMblueberry, i do believe anxiety is a major cause of stress flu, and it's anxiety related to c-ptsd, which isn't ordinarily recognized in most places, so i can totally see why it wouldn't have been listed as a 'cause' for stress flu. so much of my stress is directly caused by anxiety, i kind of see them going hand in hand a lot of the time. but, at least for me, anxiety is extremely stressful to have and deal with.
and, i actually had a huge bout of this the other nite, due, i am sure, by my anxiety over the doc appt. i went to yesterday. major chills for nearly 2 hrs., bundled up to sleep out in the living room, slept 2 hrs., woke up feeling feverish and hot, and went to bed. but i thought of you and your post about how you felt, and in my mind i went, yep, right there with you, blueberry.
so, i'm still feeling some of the effects of it today - it takes a while with me for this to run its course, but it's all about rest now, just being in my little groove till everything smooths out again.

Recovery Journals / Re: Healing or Holding On?
Last post by sanmagic7 - Today at 12:22:31 PMhey, D.A.G, my oldest D (D1) and i haven't had contact in over 13 yrs. - she doesn't want me in her life anymore. when you mentioned how other people see a kid who's NC w/ a parent, and that it doesn't look good for the parent, yeah, you're right. in my case, tho, it's because my D1 has made up stories about me and stuff i've supposedly 'done' to her. long story, (and our family also thought/hoped that once a lot of her mental illness stuff was resolved, she would see us in a different light as well - her F and her S have both pulled aways from her, too, gone NC, and still are, not just me) but people are going to think what they will because of what the people in our lives tell them to think. your M has her own perspective on the world, on her place in it, and that's where her narrative comes from.
unfortunately, we can't do anything about that. i understand the idea of still loving them, no matter what, of missing them, the heart wounds that don't go away. over time it gets easier, even if it doesn't fully go away. my heart goes out to you as you struggle w/ this. it touches so much of our lives, doesn't it.
thinking of you. love and hugs
