hopscotch your way to a new vibe

the beauty I’m finding in #nostr is the ability to dive into a diverse well of connection and experience on my own terms

Some days are just…

✨🤌 muaaah 🤌✨

today is one of them

beautiful spring day 🌊🌻

Great meditation technique based off this concept is called ‘energy rooms’.

Next time you are in a place, maybe with people you really connect with, take some time to absorb the space in with your senses. Kind of like you are a camera recording your surroundings — taking it all in, sight, sounds, feeling, emotion.

Later on, you can ‘revisit’ that energy/experience. Close your eyes and imagine a door. When you open that door you enter the scene you had recorded. Imagine the sights, sounds, feelings like you are there.

Kind of like an anytime anywhere vacation through your own memories. The place anchors the experience, the energy makes it therapeutic

poor vitamins/minerals/macro composition (nutrition) is not why you get fat. You get fat from eating in a calorie surplus.

you can lose weight on McDonalds if your in a calorie deficit.

I think the issue is a little more nuanced than many people think, and there are many factors to begin with.

Most available seed oils are chemically extracted and treated. This is a messy process that leaves traces of toxic chemicals behind.

Some seeds treated this way are not even naturally useful as food, like cottonseeds.

Many seeds raised for oil are GMO which is usually done so crops can survive insane doses of herbicides, which again come through in the oil and are so bad for you.

But other seeds which are naturally food, raised without sprays, and their oils are MECHANICALLY extracted, have been part of traditional diets for hundreds or thousands of years.

I disagree with those who call THESE oils poisons. In my experience they do tend to be the same people who believe all plant foods to be bad for you.

And yet there is still the point that animal-based oils may be better for you than plant-based oils.

This doesn’t mean wholesome seed oils are BAD, just that animal oils may be better.

Furthermore, many people use a plant oil to cook at far too high a heat for it. Understanding smoke points is key. Olive oil should never be used to cook food, but coconut or sunflower oils are high heat oils and just fine. Most animal fats are good for high heat cooking (though for best results, butter should be clarified = turned into ghee)

What do I do?

Cook almost everything in butter or bacon fat and RARELY use expeller-pressed high-oleic organic sunflower oil.

TLDR if you would eat a seed as food I don’t think there’s a problem using the oil as long as it was mechanically extracted.

Nostr gonna hate me now lol

based

also interesting how different places hold different energies. People tend to gravitate to places that share their values/beliefs/symbols.

So to explore new places is to also explore the culture of the person that suggested it.
