I was reading a good book yesterday and realized that I've been living in freeze mode for the past 1,5 years after the dramas that have happened to me. I had neglected my health, my fitness, my regimen and so much more. Because I didn't see the meaning in life. For every action, the question in my head was "And what will it change? Why?". And the longer I lived in lethargy the more all my skills and accomplishments atrophied. That's how the circle closes. Now, I WANT to go step by step back to a living version of myself that feels everything as it is and no longer expects the war to end and everything to be the same. Because it's an illusion and it's killing me. I don't want to live in a bubble. I want to adapt and move on with the times I've had. Times are not chosen. But we don't have to give up a full life because we're in an era of such violent change.
Don't put life on hold, friends 💚 Love you 🫶🏻 Big hugs, Your Green Witch 🧙♀️
We've had a dramatic 3-fold increase in poisonings. I tried to bake vegetables and meat yesterday - failed miserably. Now I'm throwing it away. It's impossible to adjust to the blackout schedule because they don't follow it)
I will try to build a healthy diet even in the current conditions and share my way of survival with you if you are interested 💚
Feelings of hunger and satiety are regulated by complex processes in the body, including hormones, nerve signals and psychological factors. Here are a few reasons why it can feel like the more you eat, the more you want:
1. Hormones: Hormones such as ghrelin and leptin play a key role in regulating appetite. Ghrelin stimulates hunger, while leptin signals satiety. If the balance of these hormones is out of balance, a feeling of constant hunger can occur. 2. Sugar and carbohydrates: Foods rich in simple carbohydrates and sugar can cause sugar levels to spike. This leads to a rapid increase in energy followed by a sharp drop, causing feelings of hunger and a desire to eat more. 3. Psychological factors: Stress, anxiety, depression and other emotional states can lead to overeating. Food can be used as a way to cope with emotions, creating a vicious cycle where the more you eat, the more you want. 4. Eating habits: Regular overeating can cause the stomach to become distended, which increases its volume and requires more food to achieve feelings of satiety. 5. Lack of nutrients: A diet poor in important nutrients can cause the body to keep sending hunger signals in an attempt to get the right amount of vitamins and minerals. 6. Sleep disorders: Lack of sleep can affect the levels of hormones that regulate appetite, increasing feelings of hunger.
Due to a herniated disc in my spine, I have unbearable neck pain and cannot sleep. There is no good doctor. The lights and water are out and I don't have the energy to fight for myself anymore.
If you often devalue your efforts, your experience and your labor, then this is for you. I want to share a very powerful technique from psychotherapy. Sit down in a quiet environment, take a notebook and pen or open the notes on your phone and write down a list of your accomplishments over the past six months or year. Achievement is not only about success, but also about developing the habit of making your bed in the morning if it was difficult for you before.
This way your brain will be able to process this information in advance and internalize the experience. Your condition will improve!
As Gail Brenner, a clinical psychologist and writer, the inner war is intensified by constant resistance: we refuse to experience our own feelings, refuse to let others do what they're doing, we don't want events to unfold according to their own logic. Resistance forces us to change our personal history so that our plans finally come to fruition. She believes that inner peace is the only thing we have access to, because everything else is definitely out of our control.
The best technique to combat anxiety is thought testing. So, ask yourself:
1. Are there any facts to support this thought? Or is this just my fantasy? 2. Is there another way to look at the situation? 3. Is this happening to me right now? If this is happening, what can I do about it/how can I help myself? 4. What would I say to a friend if they shared these thoughts with me?
Sometimes a thought is just a picture in our head that has nothing to do with reality, especially when we unreasonably complete negative scenarios in our head. To deal with negative thoughts, the easiest way is to bring yourself back to the present moment, where these thoughts are not present, where it is safe. These questions will help you do just that ☝️
I cried for a long time today and I still can't calm down. I don't know what to do about it. How do I remove excessive empathy? Why do I feel people's pain so strongly?
In the morning I went to the park and sat on a bench to get some air. An elderly woman came to me and asked me to buy her medicine. I went with her to the pharmacy and bought everything she asked for. I also bought her food and gave her money for her IV. I noticed that some people looked at this woman with disdain. I felt really bad about it. I still don't know how to calm myself down. I literally don't know how to help myself worry less.....
I don't smoke, I don't drink, I don't eat fast food or chocolate, I can't exercise because of water and light outages. My thoughts are literally eating me up.
I'm giving you a list of points for the recovery of the body. If you follow these rules, most of your problems will go away! 😊
1. Drink enough water, 30ml per 1kg of weight, you can drink a little lemon juice if you do not have gastritis. 2. In the morning 2 glasses of warm water on an empty stomach. 3. Eat more fiber (vegetables, especially green vegetables, arugula, lettuce leaves) You can make smoothies, for example: apple, kiwi, spinach. 4. Three meals a day without frequent snacks, because they increase insulin levels, and this takes away energy and generates a desire to constantly lie down or sleep. 5. Eat an hour after waking up and don't eat 3-4 hours before bedtime. 6. Breakfast should contain proteins, fats and complex carbohydrates; Lunch the same, Dinner - proteins, fats and Fiber. 7. Eat slowly, chew to a state of porridge, mashed potato in your mouth, 30 times approximately. 8. Balance - 50% animal Fats, 50% vegetable Fats; 70% animal protein, 30% vegetable protein. 9. Strictly Limit intake of refined sugar and simple carbohydrates. 10. Pay attention to products composition - the lower the composition, the better. 11. Adhere to circadian rhythms - go to bed before midnight, or better at 22:00
I am ashamed that my treatment is not working as it should after all.
It's hard for me to come in here, I'm often tired from doing things. But the hardest part is that it's really hard for me to open messages because I'm Fearful 🥲
I'm afraid to read something in there that you don't like something. I admit that I'm very vulnerable to it. Very much so.
I admit that I am very vulnerable to this. Very.
I think a lot about how I can improve my shows so that you can have fun and enjoy your time with me. I'm sorry I can't do explicit porn videos. That wouldn't be me anymore.
I appreciate and love you all very much 🫶🏻 Constantly thinking back to how we met and many of you supported me when the war started....
I've noticed that driving reflects my beliefs and thoughts about myself and people
When I need to change lanes on the highway, I panic if I am not passed (when there are many cars). I start to think that I will never get to my destination and that I am a total nobody in this world. It's a horrible thing to feel, especially behind the wheel when you can't distract yourself or leave your seat. I felt trapped and now I can hardly imagine driving there again.
What am I saying? Your psychological profile is reflected on the road unequivocally. If you are like me you think you are not a very important person you will be afraid to make maneuvers or do everything with very much tension 😞
Yes, thanks to one person, I haven't lost my desire to create. I thought I wouldn't be so easily hurt anymore, but I was wrong.
I don't even know how to recharge my battery. Too much fucking bullshit)
I'm sharing with you an example of what a complete meal that contains protein, fat, carbohydrates and fiber should look like.
I have meat, scrambled eggs with vegetables, buckwheat and coleslaw.
If you eat like this every 4 hours without snacking on sweets, you will feel much better and your weight will start to decrease.
Naturally you need variety in your meals in the form of different healthy foods, try not to eat too processed foods. Fast food and store baked goods are high in trans fats, it literally destroys your immune system, microflora and takes away your energy.
With love and care

Hello, my cats 💚
I'm sick of learning to drive. I feel like others have learned much faster. My goal is to feel confident on the road and then go for my test. But I can't feel confident until I get behind the wheel myself and gain experience. Paradox.
Would love to hear advice from experienced drivers 🛐
I am often told that I am very different from other people and stand out from the crowd. When people talk to me, they note my depth and out-of-the-box thinking.
I'm just a poor philosopher who likes to create beauty and eroticism.
Is that so bad? In my country - yes) people like me are ready to throw stones and call me a prostitute. This provokes a desire to go to another world, if you know what I mean.
Two antidepressants don't help when I face judgment and criticism. I am learning to support myself in such moments and remind myself that there are no holy people, no perfect people. I don't do anything bad to anyone. I try to help those who need it. After all I'm living this life for the first time 😄
Friends, don't fall for people's provocations and insults. They just don't understand you, they don't understand what you are going through and what your inner world is like. The most important thing is that you know who you are and that you deserve love and support, first and foremost from yourself 💚
Helpful advice from the Green Witch 🧙♀️💚
Did you know that in most cases, lack of energy is directly related to iron deficiency?
This in turn leads to hypoxia of the body and impaired thyroid function. You will constantly crave sweets and fast food, sleep, and lying down.
A great way to increase your iron intake is to include iron-rich foods in your diet. This can be lean red meat, poultry, offal, fish, beans, lentils, tofu, spinach, kale, broccoli, nuts and seeds.
And of course - walk outdoors every day for at least 30 minutes.
Love and care 💚💚💚
My friends, I can take a long time to reply to messages because I do many tasks at the same time.
Don't ever think that you are bothering me or disturbing me! I make sure that each of you is fun here 💚💚💚
