Great post! I'm studying herbalism with the goal of becomming a Registered Herbalist and I'm also a Licensed Massage Therapist so this is an interesting post for me. I love your alchemical approach to healing. I dream of distilling cannabis essential oil some day. I just got started here and I write posts about bodywork/massage, shamanism, alchemy, plant wisdom amongst other topics. I'd love to have you check out my posts and keep the conversation going since we are on a similar resonance. I'll eventually start sharing about my how my massage work has evolved after beginning my womb shamanic initiation and the Alchemical Shamanic Bodywork that I am beginning to share openly in my practice. Blessings, Safiyah

dear my brother please vote me . i follow me

thank you brother

That's great to hear that you are exploring other types of medicine and ways to heal your body. I love meditation walks... I walk really slow to and I keep my eyes closed. I focus all of my energy on the movement of my feet. Really helps me relax.

Anyways great article :)

Great content, i like your posts. Today i published about Uruguay the first country that the goverment sells marihuana legally. Today began the first sales.

Upvoted and also resteemed :)

I make my own cannabis tinctures. I'm also experimenting with CBD and THC ratios. The oil I think is a bit strong for me, but I find the tinctures to be helping with my overall wellness.

Wow, extremely well thought out and well written. Thank you. You shared much.

The laws in Australia have come a long way recently, however it's still impossible to get a prescription from a doctor to try these types of things out, even though it's now legal to, and it sounds like they'd be perfect to treat the pain I live with and have been taking opioid based medication for the last 12 years to cope with. Unfortunately even if you could find a doctor authorised to prescribe it, the cops could cancel your drivers licence for having it "in your system " with their new and improved roadside testing. So improved that you could return a positive test day's or weeks after consuming anything containing thc or the like... so you could get busted, even with a doctors prescription, AND even if you're in not at all under the influence... unlike the roadside alcohol breath test which measures the level of alcohol in your blood, there's no legal safe level, so ANY amount is automatic disqualification of your drivers license...
Makes me so mad! Wake up Australia!

Anyway, I hope you continue and find some relief from your accident and injury. Man, as I get older I realise how fragile our human bodies are, and something trivial like falling off a surfboard can cause a life changing injury... good luck with it!

Canada is apparently fully legalizing next year - hopefully Australia won't be too far behind...

Nice sharing.. Please comment and vote in my blog @hadimemories :). Thanks

Let me remind you of what you already know which is that the THC does not work for you. It has the same effect on me as it does you but I take pure CBD by itself and it works wonders. You don't need to have bad psychic experiences to relieve your pain from a nerve pinch, don't rationalize it.

I fully agree CBD's are where its at for this kind of thing.
I also didn't feel like he was rationalizing it all but actually taking a very responsible and spiritual approach to it of which I respect greatly. Very few people recognize let alone take responsibility for the "bad" trip part. Its so easy to just blame a substance yet likely an enlightened yogi would not have a "bad" trip with THC.

Very true about taking responsibility for a bad trip. For one example of a more extreme scenario, there's the legendary story of Ram Dass, who gives Maharaji (Neem Karoli Baba) 10 drops of LSD, with no effect whatsoever. https://www.ramdass.org/ram-dass-gives-maharaji-the-yogi-medicine/

Yea I LOVE that story~

thanks for the bluntness.

definitely moving towards the CBDs...

Dam Rok, I had to come back and read this You broke it all the way down. I can't help but to want to use the herb in it's pure plant herb form. I'm so new to the oils and what nots, eating, smoking, medicating, all aspects.

very interesting post.. thanks for sharing this..
I think you nailed it to say that CBD and THC arent pain killers in their own right.. but yes they really help to reduce the stress levels by increasing dopamine and serotonin. That can be very beneficial if you have stress related muscle or nerve pains.

I think that it can be of great help, if for example, you go for a massage to help reduce body pain, as you can really let go deeping into it all when you have taken some oil.

best of luck ..
maybe check out some acupressure points as they also can work miracles.. I konw this first hand!

Indeed... on the tangent of processing unconverted charges in the memory system at root of the disorders, acupressure can be highly effective as that can get into alot of charges stored in cellular tissue. The more it hurts and you lean harder into it, the greater the gold awaiting on the other side of that lead's transmutation. Quite the goldmine in our own aches... :-)

I felt this was one of the best articles I have read in a while and I read 50-100 a day.
I felt it was super real, practical and well done. I hope everyone reads it so I gave it a review and featured it in my new episode of ~(~Q2C2~)~ promote it and bring in more support!

Keep up the great work!
SteemON!

Interesting stuff. I have a question, can this possibly help with glaucoma?

Marijuana has always been known as an effective treatment for glaucoma, so I'm sure the Phoenix Tears would be a great option to try...

Thank you for the reply my friend. Marijuana definitely helps me but sometimes i just want the cbd effects, unfortunately Croatia still has it criminalized so i cant pick and choose what i want.

there are quite a few different CBD products. Even Phoenix Tears has different ratios, some with more CBD.

unfortunately, indeed. hopefully, the country shall catch up soon enough...

i loved the way you wrote this piece. the writing style but also the clear construction and articulation of ideas of difficult to describe subjects or mind states. want to read more from you when i have some time. enjoy your day.
