~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Hey hi hello! Welcome to the second iteration of...

~ The Toolshed ~

I decided to make a new thread, as the first one had errors and phantom pages, and was getting quite long! You can still find all the amazing pics, inspiring quotes, and uplifting messages of the first Toolshed here.

What is the Toolshed? Ain't a place to hang your hammer! Hehe this is a space where we can share the things that have helped us in our recovery. Tools, coping skills, inspiring ideas, and messages of hope and growth, is what this space is all about!!

You can stay connected and up to date on this space by favouriting, or by subscribing to the thread - head to the top of the page, and find the three dots to the right of the thread title (next to the star), click, and from the drop down menu you can 'favourite' or 'subscribe' - and clicking the star itself will also favourite the thread for you.

Favourite threads are then always available in your favourites list which should appear on the right hand side of most forums pages - or you can go to your profile and scroll down to the 'Favourites' section under your recent posts.

If you subscribe, it means that you will get a notification every time someone posts something new in the thread. So up to you if you simply want it to be always accessible, or if you want all the updates, or both!

I invite anyone who wishes to contribute to do so! It doesn't have to be pictures, it can be discussion, questions, videos, whatever you like! So without further ado, here's my latest batch!

Good Morning @Bunniekins @DownMoreThanUp @MissGremlin @StuF

Just did my Eden Method Morning Routine. It sets the tone for the rest of my day. Many people around the world do it and say if they dont do it they dont feel as good. Its a quick and easy commitment. For a small practice you get to experience big shifts. You can follow along for free off the Eden Method you tube channel. I feel more congruent and happier. It just balances the energies of the body and makes you fee really good

Hey @Bunniekins this is the routine with the names of each sequence underneath

You can do more research on each individual sequence for the benefits of each one for your health and wellbeing. I do it every day

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Hello everyone. Thought I'd share something with you. I used to study Wilhelm Reich who was a psychoanalysist and the righthand man of Freud. He came up with the concept of "orgone" which is a type of energy like "chi" or "prana" that flows through all life. He said when obstructed it becomes emotional maladaptation or neurosis. He built a machine called an orgone generator to heal people and had a lot of success with it and even as of today you can find the plans to make your own on the internet.

Since then a scientist (can't remember the name he went by) developed a product called orgonite which is an outcropping of Wilhelm Reichs psychoanalytic work on orgone. You can carry in your pocket, wear as a necklace, put in your pot plants or place around your house. I noticed when wearing it, for the first time it literally drew all the negative energy out of my body after a lifetime of living and replenished it with uplifting positive chi. It can be used for yourself or your household as a pyramid to balance the atmosphere in your home. People use it in their pot plants to make them grow faster. Anyway I use it daily and it purifies my energy. If I've had a negative experience I will get out the orgonite and it resets my energy quickly

Your best option is to buy off Etsy as the ones on ebay/amazon are cheap chinese knockoffs without the right formulation. Aim to have a 50:50% ratio otherwise it wont work. They say that in the product notes. I buy mine off Etsy and sort by "sent from Australia" to keep costs down.
