Sex and Weed

Have you ever sat back and considered how sex and weed are truly so similar?

You set out with intention

Cultivating the experience

With the right environment

Growing together

Now full-bodied and readied

Feel ecstasy, the passion

Bursting

Everything blooms

Euphoria

Experience the immaculate

Sensations

So many ways to feel

So many ways to touch, taste, penetrate you

So many ways to consume

Hash burning so hot

Smoke, vapors rising

Then just like that

It’s gone

The people

The plants

The smoke circle

The dance

The high

The chance

To let go

To feel good

To be in and out of your body at the same damn time

Never again to exist in the very same way

Never again to be replicated just so

Your memories the proof

Your nerves the reminder

Your mind’s eye set to wonder

Find the same high

So beautiful

Will you find her

Feel me

Consuming interactions breed happiness

All I want to do is get high and touch you while you touch me to. 

Are you down to Earth? Grounding Yourself, electrically | A Cup of Green

by Danielle Renee Lee

Sometimes you just need to ground yourself. What does it mean to be grounded? Am I talking about being less stressed? It is important to relax, but that’s not what I mean. When I mention grounding yourself, it means to be barefoot on the ground outside. Why? To be one with the Earth? Well you can look at it like that and as being electrically connected to the Earth.

Also known as ‘Earthing’, the concept for grounding is the following, “The Earth’s surface contains a limitless number of free electrons that are continually replenished through solar radiation and lightning strikes, your body naturally absorbs these particles when you make physical contact with the ground. In the body, these electrons have an anti-inflammatory effect, reducing the free radical activity that causes inflammation and chronic pain.” Grass, sand, dirt and concrete are all conductive surfaces (wood and vinyl are not). In the cold weather, a concrete basement floor would work (if you can stand it).

Excess positive charges (yes, we have taken this whole ‘be positive’ notion too far *wink*) is associated with many health conditions because it causes too much oxidation. The electrons that you receive from the Earth – which is negatively charged- will help rid your body of free radicals. Substantial research in grounding also proves improvements in your Ph balance and protection from excess EMF (electromagnetic field) exposure.

Check out the video below with great information from Dr. Stephen Sinatra, an integrative cardiologist who prefers to treat heart disease by using the best of both conventional and alternative medicine.

There are claims to do this for at least 40 minutes a day. However, according to David Wolfe (a health/nutrition expert), it takes about 80 minutes for the free electrons from the earth to reach your blood stream and transform your blood. This is something anyone can do! Go outside, put your bare feet on the ground and read a book or do a puzzle.

“The more that you can be connected directly, skin to skin, with the Earth the longer you will live…” David Wolfe
