If that makes sense. To me, personally, smoking weed should be more of a spiritual thing, something that should make you feel more in touch with yourself. That's one reason why I don't see it as much of a "drug" and more of a personal voyage. But lately I feel like I take advantage of it. When I get high it's like I play video games, watch tv, or just trip out in my room. Don't get me wrong, those are great things to do high, but it's not... fulfilling. So I'm about to smoke a bowl, but before hand I've turned off the tv and I have some stories lined up to work on (I'm a "writer"). Instead of mindlessly watching tv I'm going to get more in touch with myself and work on my novel. I don't want to take advantage of smoking, I want it to be beautiful every time, something that makes me feel like a better person. So I've got some Pink Floyd and a notebook. I just really hope I don't lose my motivation and just turn on the tv anyway... Do you guys ever feel that way, or is it just me?
Just don't think about being concentrated, when I'm high I just think of other things to do when I'm high. And now I've got a ton of piled up thoughts.
You're right. I'm high now, and I just started thinking about all the things I could do, and that's actually making me want to go do some of these things. Like I could express myself through writing right now and it would be so deep because I feel so emotionally connected right now. I don't feel emotional, but just like I can look deep inside myself. I used to do that all the time! Then I just started doing mindless things instead. That's what I'm worried about, too, turning into one of those "stoners" that everyone's saying weed does to you. "You'll get lazy and never get off the couch you'll just sit around smoking weed and watching tv!" I heard this all the time in schools when I was growing up, and I always thought it was bullshit , but I always prided myself on not being that! I don't think most are, and it's overly exaggerated, but I was always proud of getting good grades and having goals in life and all that shit, despite smoking pot pretty much daily, kind of my own teenage "stick it to da man!". Now I've stopped doing homework and just sit around when I smoke, rather than be creative! It's frustrating.
Go outside. Like take a hike or bike ride. The forests are so nice in the fall here. It's relaxing when your high
That would be awesome... have you done it before? If so is it tricky to master?Not that I have a real excuse not to try, I'm just curious if you have personal experience.
the thing with drugs, they reward you for doing nothing. try doing something productive with your day, and if at the end of the day, if you feel you accomplished something, use it as a reward. you will feel less guilty about doing "nothing"
Probably some good advice right here. Also, if you want to avoid watching TV, go outside and take a walk. Don't write while you walk though. You might fall down and drop your paper. And then where would you be? Nowhere.
Definitely go outside. I also like to write, and I get a million ideas to write about when I go outside high. Being inside with a tv, and video games is way too distracting. Also, being outside really helps me feel a much deeper spiritual high. I totally get what you're saying about taking advantage of the high. I actually just cut back on how much I smoke because I realized I was smoking for the wrong reasons.
Yes,i have had two successful travels,hind i have not master it yet mostly cause it takes much energy and activation of the pinel gland. You can go ahead and try it but it will take time. You can research on it online,theirs tons of guides. I personally bought a book and music,for the meditition process which is the very beginning of the travel. If you smoke weed it will just help and make it a mellow ride to get to the astral planes. i suggest smoking weed before any astral projection. It's healthy!!
Yep. the one thing that has kept me from becoming the stereotypical stoner is that I identified using weed as a reward system for doing productive shit early on
