Psychedelic Carpe Diem

“Carpe diem. Seize the day, boys. Make your lives extraordinary.” — Dead Poets Society, 1989

What does it really mean to “seize the day”?

Well, I’m glad you asked, although it means something different for each person.

What makes you come alive?

What activities &/or hobbies bring you joy? Peace? Flow?

Rather than solely existing and “solving problems” (in reality, nature, there are no problems), what if you found something you loved?

Something that added meaning to your life.

Something that allows you to express yourself.

Something that you continuously get better at, joyedly.

Something that people love to criticize you about, as you get better at it…as they watch your dreams come true from a distance.

As you continue to ignore them because they were never there with you or for you, ever. So they don’t even exist to you.

And you just keep on living, seizing the day, every day.

Carpe diem.

Don’t Worry Be Happy

“Know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum.” — Mary Schmidt

Jesus told us not to worry about tomorrow, but what does literally just about everyone do?

Worry about the future…haha…

Worrying only steals today from you, never tomorrow, because when tomorrow comes, it is “today” again…

One of the best ways to live a life you need not worry about is to act toward your ideal life…don’t wait for someone to help you.

Believe me, no one is coming to help. You really have to do it yourself. But this is Good News, because you’ll find that as you make it yourself, you don’t have anyone to answer to, anyone to depend on, anyone to guide your life…

You can be the master of your fate, the captain of your Soul…

Taking Responsibility for your life, YOUR happiness, is the ultimate freedom.

“Nothing can bring you peace but yourself.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson

Take more responsibility today for your life by learning and practicing these 7 meditations. Whether you do a psychedelic or not, these meditations are an extremely benefiting practice:

Psychedelic Spending

“I think if we spent the time we spend thinking about not spending money, spent that time on spending money, then it’d be time well spent.” — Darius (Atlanta)

I must agree with this quote from the eccentric philosopher Darius from the show Atlanta.

Sometimes save. Sometimes spend.

But if you always spend your life saving money and never spending, what are you really doing with your life?

How are you enjoying life?

In regards to my books & guides, here is just a fun book filled with 10 challenging & fun psychedelic crossword puzzles…guarantee it will take you days if not weeks to figure the answers to these!! & it’s something fun to spend your money on and to support me and also support psilocybin mushrooms!!

Psychedelic Travels

“It is better to travel well than to arrive.”
— Buddha

You can use a psychedelic drug for several reasons; for healing, for epiphanies, for fun, for initiation, or any other reason you can think of.

Or you can just do it because.

And then enjoy the journey as it happens, not for where it takes you…

A great guide to take on your journey is The Psychedelic Trip Journal — filled with lots of both fun & healthy integrative activities.

Psychedelic Happiness

“If you take your happiness and put it in someone’s hands, sooner or later, she is going to break it. If you give your happiness to someone else, she can always take it away. Then if happiness can only come from inside of you and is the result of your love, you are responsible for your happiness.” — Don Miguel Ruiz

One of the greatest lessons my psilocybin experiences have taught me is to put my own happiness into my own hands. My happiness depends completely on myself, just as yours depends on yourself & no one else.

The mistake many people make is they depend on other people for their own happiness, when you will never find happiness from another person. You will only ever find it within yourself.

If you haven’t found it within yourself yet, psilocybin really might be for you.

Meditation is also a good complement to the psilocybin experience.

If you have ever looked for happiness through voting, or in politics – good luck – you’ll never find it in the devils political games.
