I've been contemplating recently if I should be attempting another Salvia 60x hit. The last time I did it I was too conservative with my dosing I feel like. I was hoping to get a peek through the door without hitting the insanity of the full Salva experience. But I feel like if I've got something left to fear then I'm not really ready for it. And I feel like I'm ready to hit a big enough dose to get the full experience Salvia has to offer. There is still a little part of me that's saying "don't be playing with fire like that", it's only until shit has hit the fan where you realize you ought to have treaded more carefully. But I'm willing to take that step...or so I think. These trip reports range from so much variety sine this substance is very well known, and mainly because it's somehow legal in some U.S states which just boggles my mind. I've tried to sort the wheat from the chaff of these experiences and there seems to be a lot of potential for a good nondual trip, especially after using psychedelics a lot, so I'm quite comfy in that space and can navigate pretty well. Most reports talk about how brutal of an ego-death it causes. It's not like other psychedelics where your mind slowly untangles and the ego fades. I've heard everything from "the universe hunts you down and kills you until there's nothing left" to "FBI! open up, you are tripping!". Quite the stark contrast I'd say, lol.

That's a good story for a rainy day. I'm sure you don't regret any of it.

Lmao, as long as it's god's asshole, I'm fine with it.

I won't need the book in 5-10 years since I will have joined you in the black hole likely. But I'll buy it for support and out of appreciation for "you" leading me there.

This ☝️☝️

Why not include a little leg and hip as well, since most of us sit so much. Mine can range from 30-70min; just finished an hour session right now. Really depends on the day and if I feel like my body is in the mood. I've found listening to your body to be the key factor here. I'm exactly the same when it comes to stretches. What I did now was I gathered a bunch of info from videos, then I just proceed to do any stretches I feel like doing, and I don't allow myself to skip more than 2 days usually. I'm probably stretching 6 days of the week, most often for 30 minutes after a workout. If you're having a hard time sticking to it try and pick a specific time in the day where you always stretch no matter what. I feel like setting a goal is what is keeping me from procrastinating on it. I understand this all too well, and usually, I have to reach a point where I'm so slumped that there's no choice but to start moving my body. You can also ask yourself why do you want to move? and whatever reason you come with, you bring that up every time you feel like you should move but can't find the willpower to do so. Awesome! great that there are more calisthenics folk on this forum. I used to practice MMA and BJJ many years ago for some while. But I enjoy ball sports such as basketball and football (soccer) more and I've played basketball most of my life, but not for the last 5 years. I don't really have any reason for wanting to learn the splits other than it being useful in some calisthenics moves. May I ask how long you've been doing calisthenics, and what "level" you're at?

@mandyjw I love the pigeon as well, it's so relaxing and you can stay with it for a long time. Too lose for running? That's the first time I've ever heard of that being a problem.

Yes, but I'm careful with not doing too much. I take days off or go easy some days when I feel really sore, but since I'm on creatine I don't feel sore often since I recover pretty quickly. What is your front splits routine like? Do you have a specific program you follow?

@Vxvxen Nice! I've not been doing my meditation practices since I started stretching so I'm looking forward to seeing the difference. You got me! Literally been binging his videos ever since I started, lol. Join the club! Don't really have any specific routine other than working on the middle split itself every other day. But I do most of the basic leg stretches daily and try and hit every muscle. how so? @nistake It sure is.

I'd love to see Leo on Sam's podcast. I'm sure Sam would be up for it.

@Alastair Just wanted to say hi before you get banned. ?

@Average Investor Awesome! Do you notice any improvements in meditation if you stretch before vs not? @JohnnyAb I used to use a roller as well until I got a massage gun. Those rollers are great tho, I might have to start using mine again. Feel like it digs a little deeper than the gun. @Michael569 That's my favorite stretch! Really opens up your groin and hips. @Preety_India Yeah, sometimes It's great to enjoy being a little bit of a slob in the fitness aspect. We all fall victim to that from time to time.

@Zigzag Idiot Hope you're doing well my friend. ? A good psychedelic trip can often help resolve any issues if they've become too much of a problem. And lastly, what would love do?

I personally didn't get much benefit from it but my friend swears by it. And I can not for the life of my drink it. It's possibly the worst tasting drink I've ever tried.

This is where absolute Love really tests you.

I was actually "bulking" when I did it. You just take 1 hour to consume the 2500-3000 cal meal, it's not as hard as it sounds actually. But I can see it being difficult in the long run as you said.

When I was doing omad I felt the best I've ever felt. But it's not really sustainable in the long run, at least not for me.

Stop fucking and start making love.

We can learn from everyone. He has some good advice from stage orange, but then again there are far better people to take advice from.

My god if this doesn't take the orange cake...

Ego, ego, ego, ego, on both sides. That's all that's happening.

Actually, Red/Blue/Orange are more demonized than green on this forum, since most people here are green, they tend to demonize their prior stages that they're growing out of.

@Tim R No that's my mate, I'm Aguero.

@abrakamowse Me and my mate, drinking some mate.
