Lately I have found myself on a few webpages concerning cognitive training. A friend reminded me the importance of balance between the brain hemispheres. While the right side, utterly blissful of letting loose on new projects, ideas, designs, paintings and colours.. Since year ten I have not been studying or practicing much mathematics, logics, rational thinking or problem solving apart from while working. Poor left side, completely left out.
Undertaking a few basic science courses helped me get back into some kind of balance, and then when I stopped I got overtaken by my creativity again. From a teenager with doctors giving diagnosis of chronic mental disorders and ten different medications for different occasions and symptoms. I found myself neglected of all kind of medical attention, and found no help in the medications or the definitions of dis-ease or diag-nonsense.
People, like me, who suffer from hyperactive brain activity, or hyper-sensitivity, are simply that. Hyper, in the words all might. I do not fear it anymore, I appreciate it. I feel it, sense it and control it. However, while being constantly reminded about the "normal" functioning brain, and why I feel so different, by people surrounding me, if is sometimes good to fall back a little, spend time with just myself and look within. For from all of this hyperness, a lot of good actually appear, when I let my focus go. A lot of good ideas about how to solve problems, in a less rational way and perhaps a little risky but nevertheless very creative and original. But for me as a individual, it worked.
After undertaking a few cognitive tests this morning, I find myself writing. Stimulants. Stimulants. I do not need much to get wired up on ideas. Now, I am no neuroscientist. I am no doctor. But, I do find myself here today, with no medications, no self medicating, but only the natural way of healing. I found out the thieves in my life, the ones that took out my energy, and I replaced them with something better, something more natural for the body to process, and I found out what creates blockages and when they need cleansing. And for this. I have found myself cured to the very point where my old doctor, said I would never be, without medication, for the rest of my life. I listened to her for almost two years of my life. Not the best two years either. But perhaps those two years pushed me to become free of that system. And here I am, Me, no dependants of synthetic medications with very little plant material, but full of organic matter and nutrition, and I am healthy, happy and I feel sane. No medications needed.
So, by overcoming my fear, and learning from it, listening to it, and sensing it. I am a Master of my own diagnosis, or as I like to call it diag-nonsense. One of my biggest wishes is to be able to help people heal the way I have, with less chemicals and synthesised medications, created to cure symptoms, not dis-eases. Therefor I will not only devote myself to living as sustainable and eco-friendly I can, but also activate my brain to the point where all this information, just have to come out. Now, what better place to put it than in a blog. A blog keeps records of though, of feeling. A blog is open for all to read (if by intent).
I have studies articles and books about Bipolar affective disorder and other affective disorders for a long time, and by today I know all the tricks and tips to keep balanced, reading early symptoms and simply just following the flow, and surf on it, not being drowned by it. My other quest has been to learn how to focus on one specific thing, and be less distracted. Meditation and yoga has helped with that. There are many ways of balancing yourself, proper nutritious food is the main medicine here, for you are what you eat, and you should only feed your temple the best possible energy you can. Secondly, learning to sit still and just breathing, is the best tool I know, for being able to do that, you can get out of any situation, alive, breathing, smiling! Just breathe. And follow your intuition.
Any questions concerning diet, tips to get into meditation and breathing techniques please don't hesitate to contact me.
