I was inspired to write these the other day while giving myself some TLC while coming down from throbbing cramps. Using the idea of opposites that I've begun to understand better through yoga nidra & panchakarma, I decided to embody this by focusing on what felt healing to me & the opposite of the pain I was suffering. This led to writing these simple but highly significant & therapeutic poems. Although the essential oils patch I put on myself certainly helped, I believe that shifting my attention towards creative writing & my imagination also made a significant difference in bringing down my perception of pain. I was able to fall asleep after writing these poems. I'll be seriously weaving in this concept of balancing opposites in my embodiment for 2024, since I still have a lot of self-healing to do as I continue to recover from burnout & adrenal fatigue. Creativity gives us our power back. If you're interested in these ideas or prompts for your own trauma healing, or just need some creative inspiration to get out of a stuck, depressed, or painful place, you can find them here- https://www.teachwriting.org/612th/2021/3/16/5-poetry-activities-to-heal-during-a-pandemic โœ๏ธ๐ŸŒฌ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ“– The poems I read to you tonight, in the order that I read them: ๐ŸŒŒ 1.

Weird Journal Entry about a Recent Trance State & PHONK! & (the beginning of) ASMR Wikipedia...

In tonight's episode, I read to you a weird journal entry I wrote on what I recall from a recent trance state I experienced naturally & read the entire Wikipedia page of PHONK!-My most recent musical obsession๐Ÿ”Š๐Ÿ”ฅโ˜ ๏ธ๐Ÿ’“๐Ÿ’“๐Ÿ’“ I also begin reading the Wikipedia page on ASMR itself, with some tangential pages branching from the ASMR page, saving the entire ASMR page Wikipedia reading for another episode all on its own! Hope these whispers help you relax &/or fall asleepโ˜บ๏ธ๐ŸŒฌ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐโœจ๏ธโœจ๏ธโœจ๏ธ๐Ÿฅฑ๐Ÿ˜ด๐Ÿ’ค๐Ÿ’ค๐Ÿ’ค It was really fun to record! โ˜บ๏ธ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿง ๐ŸฆMany giggles in here. ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿคญ๐Ÿคญ The Wikipedia reading begins at 11:30. BONUS!-I read the titles of my favorite phonk songs about 18 minutes in if you want some new songs to discover & aren't afraid of "scary music," lol I couldn't take the genre & some of the songs seriously at first, but when I re-discovered it recently, I can't get enough of it! Though...I am picky with the songs I like.... ASMR Wikipedia reading with its relevant tangents begin at around 20 to 21 minutes in. Enjooooyyyeeeโ˜บ๏ธI think I've come full circle with understanding my childhood fascination with ghosts, frission (auditory-tactile synesthesia) & a strong connection to the spirit & imagination realm. This episode (& as I've noticed many of my other episodes) sound kinda choppy, & I think I realize a huge part of why I like phonk music now lol something about things being "chopped & screwed" is fun & engaging to me...it's like an alarm clock that goes, "Boo! Wake up!" & is better than zombie-states. Lol though some of the lo-fi & relaxing or calm phonk for sleep is also nice based on the mood. I'd say the most relaxing phonk song that I've heard so far that I think many could groove to is METAMORPHOSIS by INTERWORLD & a nice one for the "chopped & screwed" sound is GHOST!

December Beach Walk 2023

Another episode at the fake beach (though a good enough river with real sand) near my house. Reflecting on the passing of another year as it nears its end! The waves crashing in the background were super relaxing for me๐Ÿ˜Œ I hope it's a nice background for you tooโ˜บ๏ธ Whisper Musings about the cliche of needing something bigger than myself to live for...or live with, rather. I think that nature & everything's that's rooted in the Earth is worth living with & living for. The past few weeks have been really emotional (lots of trauma being released & many things are shifting for me internally). Changes are both exciting AND depressing...until this wave passes, I'll keep my spirits up (or rather, the spirits will keep me upโ˜บ๏ธ) through the animistic connection to nature... thank goodness๐Ÿ˜… I am missing a few people & the beach reminds me of them๐Ÿ˜Œ๐ŸŒŠ It's also just a nice reprieve to walk by the water almost always, especially on colder days when it's almost empty. ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒโ„๏ธ
