The Healing Powers of Arnica Montana


Arnica Montana, also known as Wolf's Bane, Leopard's Bane, Mountain Arnica, is a flowering plant found in Europe and it's somewhat rare. On to whats really important, this flower when used in gel form has a really amazing ability to relieve muscle soreness, muscle pain, and is really good substitute for ibuprofin when used for inflamed tendons.

Bioron makes this gel product called Arnicare Gel and its 100x better than using bengay or tylenol for muscle pains or inflamed tendons, trust me i thought i pulled my achilles and within a minute of applying this stuff and letting it dry it felt so much better.

It's pretty pricey, $16.99 for a 2.5oz bottle, if you go to whole foods but I haven't tried looking for this in any other stores. Luckily on Drugstore.com they're having a sale 2 for $12.99 try it out and see how well this shit works you'll be surprised.

Fear.

Everybody has them, and it's unfortunate when those feelings get the best of us.

When you fear how others perceive you as:
(You're afraid to be yourself because your thought process tells you that you lack confidence and self esteem which trigger the emotion of being scared, thus you somehow concluded that your character is shitty, which is not true)

  • YOU WILL prevent yourself from producing a genuine presentation of yourself
  • (You are attempting to be something your not)

When you fear yourself:

  • YOU will restrict yourself from producing your BEST work
  • (You are knowingly half-assing it because your fear of failing is overbearing)


Do not fear how you are perceived

Do not fear yourself

have the Courage to be

Everything that fear has made you not

Because you are what you most fear.

My addiction.

Video Games, whether it be online, console, or pc, they have all too cleverly became the center of my universe at one point in my life. As much as I would like to think that this was some sort of lame joke, it clearly, was not.

I find it unfortunate that I let Games, especially counter-strike, get the best of me during my early high school years and childhood, where it was imperative to let my identity grow like a well nurtured plant. I feel that my foundation for all discipline, or lack thereof, was demolished and consumed when I was in my gaming rampage.

How did i come to terms with such a silly conclusion?
  1. My core priorities had changed from tending to those I love and care about to playing counter-strike (i.e. would become angry with mother when told to do simple chores such as taking out the garbage)
  2. It was an escape to my reality of depression I faced in high school, when a person focuses on something it can and will become their reality, thus my reality was no longer facing depression rather than running away and playing counter-strike
  3. The countless hours of time spent playing was a clear indication that i was addicted but was in denial and hadn't realized so (i.e. 7am-2:30pm would be school time, 2:40pm-4am was time spent play counter-strike
  4. When others would get bored of playing or fatigue, I would never want to stop, and would become irritated when told to stop.

As petty of an issue this might seem to certain people, I deeply believe this was a determining factor in which had set a path of destruction in my life. I'm also glad I have come to reach this conclusion because now I know to make this a priority in my life to never play games again. Although this will not be an easy task for me because there is not a moment in time at home when i am not thinking about playing again, and i am fearful for that but also feel that this task is not impossible.

The Power of the Brain and self-acceptance.

It is rumored that humans only use 10% of their brains consciously...A constant question i have in mind is how can I access the other 90% that isn't being used? Though i don't have any concrete answers, I will attempt to resolve this issue with small solutions and share them as i gain this knowledge.

Something I came to terms with today:
A solution to anger issues that I've deal with on a daily basis...
(keep in mind that these 'solutions' require a willingness to change, if you are not open and willing to change then you can sure as hell forget about it)
  • What you perceive to be real, may or may not exist, regardless, you're perceptions become reality whether you aware or not
For example: making situations worse or extreme then they really are, aka OVER-dramatic.
"I can't believe he/she was late, this ruins my entire day"

Because you perceive that your entire day is ruined just because someone was late, essentially your perceptions become reality, thus your day is actually ruined, over what?...absolutely nothing a.k.a being late

Solution:
Don't let your thoughts run wild and run a muck on your brain with all of those "What if's and if this happens then this can happen" Make a conscious effort to minimize the situation at hand with a simple thought such as

"When I look at the bigger picture, this actually means nothing and it'll be okay"

now your probably like "It's not that easy and if it was that easy then why doesn't it work for me?"

Here's where your willingness to change comes in to play.

Basically what you end up doing when you minimize the situation is accepting the reality of your situation at hand and this is the big term for today, SELF-ACCEPTANCE.

SELF-ACCEPTANCE can and will prevent stress and not only promotes humility but creates it.

Deja vu...

It feels like i've mindlessly processed too many advertisements in my life. So much that every 'new' image/sound just feels like something that I could have very well seen five seconds ago somewhere...realizing maybe an hour later, indeed i have seen it. My mind grows weary and dreads the feeling.


I hate it.

Fight for your right.

http://www.m2znetworks.com/

This company is about making broadband nationwide free to everyone. This guy has deep pockets so he has the money to make this happen, but there's a restriction set by the FCC not allowing this to happen, so visit the website and read their statement to see what they're all about. Here's the other link to vote if you weren't able to find it.

Circles

Through self discovery
only lies a trap of circles
In which we are constantly caught in

Constant reminders of
balance are needed

But it seems i cannot seek balance
without the pursuit of circles

The real bad guys.

They prey on our innocence and ignorance

drawing us in closer and closer
with tricks up their sleeves
and things we don't need

though we intend to not buy,
we're ankle deep in things.
and no matter how much
we try to leave
we are infinitely enslaved.

Definition

What is it that defines someone

Is it the taste of music,
clothing,
the tv shows you watch.

None.
have we strayed so far from what it means to be ourselves.

Scanner.

Dad: Do you have a scanner?

Yeah

Dad: can you use it by itself?

...what?

Dad: yeah can you use it by itself?

no it's not something you use by itself it would go to your computer

Dad: what? but why would that happen

it scans on the computer

*45 minutes later

Mom: Yeah your dad was talking about those things that cut up paper

a paper shredder...how is that a scanner.

Those were the years.

That I played outside
Before I got sucked into computers

When Saturdays meant early morning cartoons
and
exploring suburbia with my bike

when the backyard tree said, "space available"
and i gladly built a treehouse in it.

When silence was appreciated
No cars roamed
and silence was beautiful.
Crystal clear thoughts arose from it,
something thats hard to find now.

Nineteen Years.

It's been 19 years and still i find myself confused.

I'm not white nor am I black.
But I certainly do have small eyes.

I hears others speak the language,
Yet I would rather pronounce my L's like an L instead of an R.

I'm stuck in between two worlds that drift further apart.
And I can't seem to find myself on either side.

Its inexplicable.

I
Just
Don't
Fit
Here.

I Will find the others, someday. Soon...

Lies.

It's everywhere.
You can't ever go a day without hearing at least one
Though intangible, it's written over faces
We all get caught up in those places.
But if anything is for sure
It's that in doing so
You'll get caught in the web
And it
Will get caught in you.

Sacrifice.

I will strive to get out of this.

To mend and not break.

Success...is my only way out.
