#TuesdayTalk 📢 21.02.2023 #paporeto #paposério #tellingitlikeitis #decircómoes #saúde #health #salud #repost: @albertovilloldo_thefourwinds Most of us have broken brains, ailing bodies, failing systems. The statistics showing who amongst us is likely to suffer or die from heart disease, cancer, and dementia are grim.  Our Western diet and lifestyle have left us stressed, malnourished, and disease-prone. https://thefourwinds.krtra.com/t/i9L0xNGWz8rK But rather than succumb to the medical system—which is a #disease-care system, not a #healthcare system—you can turn to the medicine of the shamans and trust in their ancient wisdom. What's the first step? This great morning #breakfast #smoothie. Delicious! And the second step? Well, we'd like you to join us in a simple experiment... The experiment is your life. Your health. It’s YOU. In his free Masterclass, Grow A New Body, Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D. will share with you the secrets of #health and #longevity that the #shamans have known for more than 5,000 and that we are rediscovering today. In this Masterclass you will learn: 🟡 The difference between Western medicine and shamanic energy medicine and how we can create psychosomatic health when we heal our wounds of separateness from Nature 🟡 How to support the brain with fats and neuronutrients and how to eat foods that support stem cell production 🟡 How to detox the brain through intermittent fasting, allowing a process called ketosis 🟡 Which foods switch on genes for health, and switch off the genes for disease 🟡 The 3 steps to creating longevity: Detox, Repair, and Regeneration 🟡 How fire ceremony can heal our most ancient wounds by re-patterning our reptilian brain Just tap on the link below to sign up for free... https://thefourwinds.krtra.com/t/i9L0xNGWz8rK (em The Four Winds Society) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co7LzaOOFN_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Telling It ‘Like It Is’

"Call a spade a spade" is a figurative expression and refers to someone speaking clearly and directly. Calling something out, straight talking, telling it 'like it is' and not how you would like it to be. Speaking truthfully, frankly, and directly about a particular topic, is what The CP Diary does.

Getting straight to the point

If someone feels the topic or subject is difficult, or unpleasant, it’s because it’s struck a nerve. I get straight to the point, which many have told me is breathtaking, because what id out there is spin, it isn't the truth. If nothing else my blog is truthful. Others resonate with what I write.

For those who do feel intimidated, it’s because my blogs have struck a nerve, but perhaps if they have struck a nerve, it's time to do something about it, something to take on board, something to deal with.

Choose to deal with 'Mental Health'

Generally in 2023, Mental health is still something ignored, not by me, it's something I continue to champion, talk about. Telling it 'like it is' helps me to function in an honest, open and transparent way, where I can 'just be me.' There are no airs and graces with me. It's time to deal with mental health.

My writing is simple, it's honest

My writing is simple, it's honest. It concurs with how the universe expects me to write, for me to speak the truth, to tell it like it is. I give the information to you straight without the bells and whistles. I wear my heart on my sleeve, because it's good for my mental health.

The universe knows that if collectively we’re not calling anyone out, or we’re not hurting anyone, then it is okay. For those who see it as a bad thing, they will already have that pre-disposition, no matter what anyone says, or what anyone writes.

Breathtakingly honest, The CP Diary restores a little much-needed faith in humanity.

What We Can’t Have

The history of romance

is the history of men

stealing girls from their fathers

and of women stealing husbands

from their wives.

Claiming you have mental health disorders when you really don’t invalidates/minimizes the struggle for people who really do...

There’s being diagnosed with OCD, then there’s being particular. They are different things! I am very particular, I like things to be done and organized a specific way and I hate it when people say things like, “you are so OCD.” No, I am not. I will not have an anxiety attack or not be able to continue with my day if I don’t get to do things they way I feel they need to be done.

There’s having body dysmorphic disorder, then there’s not liking how you look. They are different things! I have gained weight, especially since starting nursing school. I do not like how I look because of it. I do not have body dysmorphic disorder. I still go out and go to school, and clinical and live my life as much as I can while finishing up nursing school. An example of what I am talking about: I do not post videos of myself baring my stomach and hip bones, swaying back and forth in front of the camera and then say I hate my (nonexistent) muffin top-not because I truly have a muffin top, but because I need someone to boost me up, so after I post something like that I know a bunch of people are going to tell me “you are skinny!” “Are you crazy what muffin top?” It drives me nuts when people do this claiming they have body dysmorphic disorder, because this is attention seeking. It’s more likely vanity, or low self esteem. People with truly diagnosed body dysmorphic disorder do not act like this. Social isolation, lack of work and relationships, they tend to be ashamed, reclusive, and have low self-worth. That is the actual medical/psych description.

I am not trying to minimize the pain of having low self esteem or needing to be complimented sometimes, but do not treat it like a psychiatric disorder.

I commented on a post just like the one I mentioned, and someone tried to shame me for putting out my opinion in an honest non enabling way. They told me the person who posted probably has body dysmorphia (paraphrasing) and wouldn’t let it go. I just needed to get this off my chest. I probably could’ve been less blunt, but really if you put stuff out there for everyone to see/read, do not be surprised when ppl give their real opinions.

The most important aspect of critical thinking is developing a self-awareness for our thought patterns and cognitive biases. Growth is hard. But it's even harder when you think you are done. We must often reflect upon biases like naive realism, confirmation bias, blind spot bias, Dunning-Kruger, etc... We must value accuracy and growth over trying to feel superior. We must embrace skeptical doubt more than contrarian doubt. We must scrutinize ideas we love and hate, and be willing to accept the evidence that passes muster. Yes, it's hard. But that is why it is so important. Because it is so easy to fail is precisely why we should strive to better critical thinkers, precisely why we should strive to grow. Carpe Datum and Semper Sci!

🍵 After being put on furlough until May due to COVID-19, my crazy brain has been on overdrive with inspiration. Sometimes work , responsibility, chores and exhaustion are to our brains what static is to a radio: the music is still there but we don't hear it. But now that I have had time to adjust the dial and soothe my introverted soul, I am ready to to take a little leap here: I have been writing prose since I was 5, andddd I have also pretty much been keeping my prose a secret just as long. 😂 See, I write when my feelings are strongest, and subsequently my feelings are at their strongest when I write. This is me at my most honest and most vulnerable state. I often wear my heart on my sleeve when it comes to my joy. My sadness and grief, however, have always travelled through my whispers in the ears of close friends, or locked away here: my journal. LL Downing comes from me; it is my name, but it is also a street. A street I grew up on: a street with an appearance that has remained almost unaltered for the past two decades. Behind its seemingly unchanged houses and foliage, however, is a street whose heart is dramatically moving: colorfully shaping the lives of those who reside in the houses bathed in the light of its street lamps. Where there has been laughter, there has also been grief. Where there is joy, also despair. But the lamps shine down all the same. Because a mirror might reflect appearance, but it never shows us inside. That is what memory is for. If you fancy channeling your inner emo, depressing yourself even further during this quarantine business, and seeing my soppy side, my dark side, my real side... give us a follow and see if it is for you. You might not always like what you read here, but again neither do I. 🤷‍♀️ #author #writer #prose #vulnerability #cuppa #follow #support #lockdown #heart #soul #inspired #journal #support #aspirations #griefsupport #motherlessdaughters #journey #tellingitlikeitis https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Delvsl2ch/?igshid=umn8gp7rtsue

Yes, it snowed! I always get a kick out of people who are so surprised and shocked in commenting that it is cold, or that it snowed. They MUST be new to the area, because those of us who do not live under rocks in a Mid-Atlantic State can expect it to be cold and/or snowy in DECEMBER! Of course, it is possible I missed a memo, but I digress.

I am just a little bit proud of myself right now. I have TOTALLY 100% hit a brick wall with the exercising since November. Not even going to sugarcoat it. Life hasn't slapped me in the face, it has done a Steven Segal/ Jean Claude Van Damn / Chuck Norris round house power kick straight to my body AND my life it seems. Yeah, I know.... everybody has 20 minutes blah blah blah well, I used those 20 minutes WHEN I felt like moving to hide and cry most of the time. #tellingitlikeitis Despite everything life has thrown at me, be it surgical procedures😷, teenagers 🤪, pain 😫.... I have STILL managed to not only NOT gain weight but keep on losing. ☺️ How? Dumb luck for one, stress.. yes, but I also learned valuable lessons prior... like don't eat my emotions! And I kept moving! 🚶🏻‍♀️Even if it was just pacing back and forth which I did a LOT of! I have to have surgery on my leg August 29th that will have me down for at least 2 weeks. Another 72 hour EEG🤕 (date yet to be determined) HOPEFULLY, afterwards I can get back to it. I sure do miss that "endorphin high" it really was one of the best feelings I've ever felt. I miss my workouts, I miss my coach ( even though she still keeps in contact and checks in on me 🥰) I WANT to get to my goal by 40! Only have till March of I'm gonna reach it! https://www.instagram.com/p/B1dEEScJXi0/?igshid=f40gtbp4qxaz

#Repost @africandiasporanews ・・・ Once again another person dies in DR. As I stated before people need to cancel trips to DR. It’s not safe at all. How many more people have to die before we get it? You can visit other nations in the Caribbean. US Virgin Islands, Caymen Islands. Jamaica, Bahamas etc. #tellingitlikeitis #africandiaspora #newblackmedia #africandiasporanews https://www.instagram.com/p/By3ukYjnZuW/?igshid=1qo802jyd3pmk
