Coronavirus – What to do to Feel Better

As an author I self isolate regardless, most artistic types do and we work from home on our art. Being creative means a good ethic of time management in my life and a lot of other self-employed, gig ecumenists and artists.

I have found several constructive ways to stay occupied, sociable and healthy. I said I wouldn’t do count downs and top tens type blog articles but I feel in times of international upheaval it requires suggestive articles to give and inspire people to time manage and keep from being bored or watching the news as I see that as unhealthy to keep watching twenty-four-hour news bulletins on a worldwide crisis.

So here is what I do to keep active. I clean the house and the plus side is exercise, as someone with a bad back, I take breaks and that lasts as long as a cup of tea then I keep going or do something new leading to the next on my list.

I cook all meals mainly from scratch but in these times, where I would only have take-out once a  month, I suggest ordering in because the stores are limited on fresh and frozen at the shop or online. Cooking all your meals the day before and getting the kids involved making fresh pasta (I will be doing basic recipes in the cooking category next month, April). I will also be posting cooking ideas but for now, just follow the links posted in this article for other folks ideas. Soups, stews and curries can help cure and feel better as a way of getting veg and fruits into our systems given our bodies a boost in vitamins and minerals. These are also comforting foodstuffs and will help with moral as well as getting creative in the kitchen and passing on skills to the kids or learning with your kids, new skills.

I also save the seeds from foods like tomatoes, strawberries, peppers as so on. I would and have planted potatoes and onions, it will give you some fresh air and fresh food for the future. These do take time and reusing containers, making drainage holes and planting on windowsills to begin within a good way of recycling as well as thinking for the future if this horrid illness continues. Plant things that last a long time after harvesting and help heal. This will be a good way of looking after your environment, collecting rainwaters, creative flower beds and composting. This will not only give you and your family something to do but learning new gardening skills and getting some fresh air while looking after yourself and household is at the top of the list of priorities.

Decorating containers, jars and furniture as well as your home that normally you may not spend that much time with, and you and the household realise how much waste, impracticalities and disuse your home and lifestyle has. Constructive arts and crafts will not only occupy your time but also making living and cohabiting easier as everyone can chip in. Have a clean up and clear out, seeing what can be fixed, reused and decorated, creating new skills and hobbies and revamping your home for the better will help with mood, emotions and atmosphere, as well as spring cleaning and making sure all surfaces get a bleaching and wipe down daily.

Learning new skills watching videos on social media, talking to friends and relatives and even educational content in the sciences can help zone you out of home life and problems and give you and the rest of the household a way of escaping. I advise TED Talks, any Gaia videos and arts & craft making videos and applying what you learn the week after. Action planning helps with time and health management when at home, cooped up and instead of waiting for death, we can be good to look after each other by other means of communication, starting with getting to know yourself and talking inwardly to that voice at the back of your mind with the intention of getting to know it and actively developing a relationship. This will improve interpersonal health and mood, emotions and mentality.

A little on what I am doing to occupy my time. I am painting, drawing, writing, blogging and vlogging. I am playing The Sims 4 and I am watching quiz shows, lectures and documentaries and I am meditating, internal conversations that I have learned to actively talk outwardly and get a good conversation with myself. Practising Agnostic, mindfulness and oneness.

Inner vs Outer Selves

In science these days we are looking into quantum theories and facts more than ever before. W starts with an old Archaic science known as the study of Psyche, the symbol known as the scythe in the constellations represents the era in which humans recognised the sense of self and ‘I think, therefore I am’ came to be the question of the shard of time.

The Tale of Two Cities or for the more science orientated individual Freud vs Jung in psychological terms is the perfect example of the Inner vs Outer self argument. One is about behaviourism and the other is mentalism. Plato vs Aristotle is the original argument of Meta to the Physical although 500 years apart. We human are made up of two types of genetics which are as follows, DNA is our physical attributes from our genetic pool and then there is RNA which is the spiritual, soul, emotional, memory or in other words the meta.

We are all part of a pairing. Two halves of something known as a Quasicrystal and it is a quantum physical representation of our universe although in my theory is a lot more localised than the entire universe and is more appropriate to look at the two halves of the whole person. If our conscience is another person, it would explain why in Freud’s theory of the personality The Super Ego and the ID, cannot deal with reality as it belongs to another person who is usually not in the same room, environment or the country in this day and age. Our souls are the person we are intended to be with and who we married before committing to living this life of outer and behaviourism. It is our radar and our way of finding our soul mate. The is materialism and I think the Plato vs Aristotle was the same argument. Is it materialism vs immaterialism, ie the Meta before the Physical.

Carl Jung’s theory was more about immaterialism and in the inner self. Mindfulness, synchronicity and arch-types are all inner, immaterial and all happen before reality, materialism.

My argument, building on both psychologist theories, states belong to your other half, ie your soul mate which is why precognitive or gaining access to the information you have never experienced or asking the question that you know is definitely not in your knowledge bank and getting an answer back from the voice at the back of your mind is another living person and we can all try this. We see this in a state of physical polygons when looking at RNA and the linking parts of these particles are the Linux synapse linking RNA to DNA, they are our communication device built into our body’s spirit and physique and can to some be called telepathy. It can also be used to link the past to the future and beyond and even other planets where panspermia has taken place and done on this planet on other Earth-type planets.

We can take photographic images of our souls known as an aura these days and we can see our souls mood, that may not belong to us. Just think of it as rogue feelings, sensations or emotions and moods, they may belong to our soul mate. Morphic field theory by Rupert Sheldrake is one of those theories which looks into auras and other RNA attributes in its form for communication, navigation and instinctual properties and these can be studied so why do many of the general public and scientists who study physics who build their careers on proving their godfathers of the any given sciences theories, especially those in general physics when it is an issue across human sciences from social, chemistry and biology to the quantum world in which we need super microscopes to see the tiniest pieces or morphing and extraordinary matter and yet some deny Meta even exists which in its self is ignorant of most examples of their predecessors where their theories were conceptual and built on philosophies from the time of Plato or Aristotle.

The point of this article and essay is for people who are into quantum sciences to experiment and try it out for themselves. Test this as we are in a pandemic of the COVID Coronavirus and see if these theories can be proven and to see what benefits we can have such as healing, peace of mind, body and heart.

Anyway, Bye for now. I will continue my theories as self Isolation for the COVID takes over the world. Stay clean, Stay Healthy and Stay Educated.

As Always, My darklings, Take Care.

Recipe – Chicken Satay

I like to go on a journey with my recipes and this one is from Thailand. Chicken Satay is one of my all-time favourites and here is my tribute to the humble peanut. We get a lot of health benefits from eating nuts and my favourites are easily peanuts and almonds, but I tend to like pistachio and walnuts are also great ways to get particular supplements into our diets Potassium is in most nuts and some fruits.

I used a very Eastern theory to my cooking, textures, balanced flavouring and colours. In my Satay, I have peanut paste, Thai Seven Spices, I use white sugar although I would use palm or muscovado sugar, I use fresh garlic and onion and coconut milk in the marinade. Then I add a selection of stir-fried veg up on cooking in the wok. Mainly mixed peppers, broccoli, carrot and cauliflower. I used chicken in this version but I like satay sauce with pork, prawns, lamb or beef. Add it to a stirfry is a good option but marinating any of these meats and cooking the leftover sauce for a dip for a skewered version of Satay is also a healthy good option, check out this recipe for an alternative.

Mind over Matter

Over the years I have learned many coping mechanisms to handle trauma endured from childhood abuse by very bad people and I mean evil people. I also suffered beatings and verbal abuse from my mother. I have suffered rape as a child, young adult and even as a teen. To top it off, I have had a long term, on and off relationship with someone who is controlling, abusive and manipulative.

In this article, I hope to refer to toxic relationships of all kinds from bullying in the playground as a kid or at the hands of a horrid person as an adult because of their insecurities, jealousies and inadequacies as a person. Their attention-seeking ways and how everything bad, wrong or habits in their mind is always someone else fault, more often than not a particular person they seek to make the personification of every ill in their life.

I am married though I rarely mention it because there are no divorce courts for me and that person. Because of this, I have been the victim of their utter cruelty and manipulation. They are evil, verbally abusing me and also wiretap my phone so they can track my movements, and who I talk to.

My silence is now broken. The paranoia of their own misgivings that trigger things like, ‘I am warning you’ and ‘I want your attention all the time’ They let me recover from their mental, emotional and physical abuse and then abuse me all over again. The mental and emotional abuse usually triggers self-harm as it gets so bad but I get stronger every year that I have subjected to this horrid person and due to them being a public figure ie famous, they think there is no come back on them and that they are more deserving.

I hope to highlight that I have autism and therapy doesn’t work for someone like me. I have to find ways of fending off this person, including a restraining order from years back because people failed to realise that they cannot protect me from a person as evil as this who hides their means and it is as if butter wouldn’t melt. It is fake, they are not anything of what they make themselves out to be though their marketing states otherwise and more or less allows them to believe they are a good person when they are not. I am not alone in this and will be doing a Facebook Live video about this topic.

It is important to remember, they are the problem and you are NOT. I am sure there are millions of people, men and women and child who can relate to what I am saying about this. When someone seeks to mess with your mind and your emotions to feed their own delusions of being a well put together sort of person but they have a dark secret and that is they take all their problems out on one person and make it their lives work to make mine a hassle and to make me feel worthless, this is a bad person making my life hell and they see nothing wrong in what they are doing because it goes ignored along with the dirtbags they have around them.

Here are a few links for you all, so that you know this stuff is real and you need to help yourself and heal. Mind matters and mindfulness as well as having a good relationship with yourself is key to a harmonious life and nobody has a right to control, diminish and insult your senses.

Recipe – Gragnano Stewed Pork & Salad

Gragnano is a type of pasta and for those who don’t want a lot of wheat or carbohydrates and want an alternative to rice, this ingredient is versatile and can thicken sauces, be fried with onions for a crunchie garnish.

I have used this in a stew with some leftover roast pork, mushrooms, onions, carrot and mixed peppers. I have a mixture of spices such as paprika, salt, pepper, Chinese five-spice. I used tomato puree and a chicken stock cube and you can also see my prized or one of my prized ingredients Aromat Seasonings which has enhancers such as onion, celery and garlic powder. I use the fresh ingredients and add the Aromat as you would salt & pepper.

Pasta has had a bad rep due to people shying away from wheat and carbs, but I’d like to point out that a balanced diet is everything in moderation unless you have a serious allergy. Many kinds of pasta have been around historically for a very long time. They can be eaten warm or cold, with or without a sauce and if with a sauce, it can be used to thicken the broth. There are also many who need their immune systems boosting and this can be done via nutrition. Certain health conditions like Hepatitis attack immune systems and a healthy diet that helps body organs

I remember from my childhood, Gragnano being used in Minestrone or a Greek equivalent. This pasta is shaped like rice and there for a smaller portion can be used for the weight conscientious. Carbs retain water in the body, make your limbs swell and can give you a distorted impression of carrying more weight than you have when you are just retaining fluid, this is bad for many reasons and anti-inflammatory drugs or foods, can help shift that unwanted fluid. We need a balanced diet to stop the need for pharmaceuticals.

I personally try to heal whatever is wrong with me with foods, ingredients and teas. Stews, broths and soups are a good way or keeping all the nutrition from vegetables and meats, seasonings and are easy frozen or refrigerated. I recommend into an ice cube tray and that way you have a mug worth or soup or stew whenever and defrost via hot water from a kettle like you were making a brew.

 

Gaia Hypothesis – Consciousness

As a young child, I was known as an Oracle, it is like a medium and is Arcadian Greek with ancient philosophies. It is also something which my family throughout the generations have relied upon for prophecies. Gaia is not just a theory or being, it is a collective consensus and science that encapsulates ancient ways of life, thinking and science with that of modern-day.

I am part of the Royal Arcadian Greek Family which has an ancestral duty to represent theories of old tales can be true. I am part of a pairing, one of two halves or two sides of the same coin is the perfect analogy to this rite of passage. It is what our soul mate is, kindred spirit and is also known as our conscience. Which is a real person and we should have a meeting of minds, a friendship, then a romance and then a relationship. It is known a pairing and we all have that one person if you begin to talk to it in mind and conduct it as you would meeting anyone for the first time, you will find your soul.

This may sound like hippy-dippy, paranormal mumbo jumbo but it is a science as we are in the age of Aquilla, the age known as Aquarius. The science part comes into this by reading and researching Mindfulness and Oneness. We can actively practice this by looking into Buddhism, Hinduism, Shinto, Christianity, Taoism, Judaism and Islamic Religions. Together they all have the scripture and lessons in which to connect you to your other half. The Agnosticism and Deism are the Arcadian versions and one of the oldest religions bring all the other old testaments of western religions and cultures together.  The age of Aquilla is about inclusion, oneness with our conscience in mind, body and spirit.

It is healing, it is fulfiling and it is ascension at its best, it is spirituality and sensuality. We all crave that one person that compliments and balances us, we can by looking within and talking to our conscience like it is a real person, separate from ourselves. It has a name and usually, the voice that replies is one of the opposite sex.

The Earth is in need of a new era, one which centres around caring for ourselves as a couple with our soul mate, one that takes care of our environment and an era in which the technology is about enhances our senses, regardless of autism or not. We are sentient beings and Gaia has the perfect explanation on how to do this and how medically, socially and technologically we are all ready for this.

Everyone has a Conscience

Arcadian and Greek morals and principles of Consideration, Manners and Respect. The ancient Greeks knew of a study called the Psyche before there was psychology and they observed something called a conscience. It is referenced in the bible as Pontius Pilate and many incantations and examples of this are in mythology, religion and folklore.

https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2018.01863/full

We all have that soul mate, that kindred spirit and partner of mind, body and heart. We are all one of a pair. We are all part of something called a pairing. It is someone who you probably don’t know about and lives nowhere near and you are unlikely just to bashing into them at the local club or dating site. It is called your Conscience.

We can talk with it inside our mind and begin a conversation with it. We can then ask it for a name and you should address that voice, otherwise known as your conscience as a person and if it gives you a name then you ought to begin finding out likes, dislikes and build a relationship with that person and be careful not to freak it out. Take your time and treat it like you would an everyday conversation because the only difference is that it is your mind instead of a phone or a website.

If you want to know how this works, it is one is a source and the other is a guardian of it. Not to be old fashioned or traditional about it but the Hindus know of this as the chakras, buddha as the ascension and oneness which is about being at one with your conscience which is alive, real person because if one dies, so does the other. You interlock with that person and compliment that personality’s attributes.

This can also be termed as Twin Flames, we can mirror with our Conscience and when it works in harmony together it is also known as a symphony. It can have healing properties. It can also help lower the effects of hepatitis regardless. It is the reason that the planet’s population are not in the pairs and therefore there is an epidemic of STI’s (Sexual Transmitted Infections). We need to be in touch with our conscience and find one another and together, hopefully we can all become fulfilled human beings and truly know peace on earth.

I already know of mind and have for my entire life. When this happens you really ought not to be separated but I am from mind because I don’t like him that much. When it goes wrong, it really goes wrong and my own is just selfish and idiotic. I cannot stand the way he has treated me and those around him and he himself think they know more about this but when they need telling a billion times and termed in the simplest way, and have the nerve to think that I am insane.

I have always been a sensitive medium and though I don’t tell people about it as it has scared the living crap out of me, my soul mate is supposed to protect me from this but fails to even have a conversation with me, due to him wanting to believe and have something to blame all his misdemeanours on, which I seem to have been blamed for a lot. It is disgusting, as I can feel, sense and have an awareness of his disgusting sexual habits with other people and because we have both known about it for my entire life, we are more sensitive to each other’s activities on a day to day basis.

Here are some video links to show you what science thinks of this concept:

Essay – Psychology & Carl Jung

Carl Jung

The Undiscovered Self C. G. Jung 

https://www.psychologistworld.com/cognitive/carl-jung-analytical-psychology

https://www.independent.com/2014/03/20/carl-jungs-red-book/

What is Carl Jung’s contribution to science?

As an author of fiction, I research many different subjects and none have captured my attention like Carl Jung. 

His ideas about dream theories, Synchronicity, which is a term coined by him, and philosophy are current in today’s society. 

I will open this presentation with a quote I noted for the book I am working on at the moment, which I had before even signing up for this course. I think it tells you a lot about this Psychologist. 

‘Not nature, but ‘genius of mankind,’ has knotted the hangman’s noose with which it can be executed itself at any moment.’ 

Carl Jung, in my opinion, is one of the most important and interesting people in our time today although he was born in 1875 and died in 1961 in Switzerland. 

Psychology and quantum physics are now in an interesting relationship while they try to work out, who is ‘I’? 

Carl Young was most notably concerned with what many scientists call sudo science, dreams, coincidence and he coined the term Synchronicity. He was interested in the psyche: Telepathy, remote viewing and various other subjects and experiments to do with the mind. 

He was a fan of Freud. The two of them were interested in the unconscious mind. He was an active member of the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society. He disagreed with Freud over his theories and I think this is what set Jung aside and gave him in some respects more credibility. His theories even tied in with Erikson. 

Jung theorised that the ego was the part of the mind that is conscious: The thinking, recall of memories, all the emotions a person has and knows about and is the part that is our identity and is continuous. The unconscious part is memories that are lost temporarily and repressed. His theories in the norm tied very much into Freud’s theories. 

More than this is his theory on synchronicities. His Archetype theory to me is very important since the discovery of internet error code found in the building blocks of life in the world of quantum physics. Believing that symbols from different groups of people and cultures appear similar and he assumed these came from archetypes from one pool of consciousness that is shared by the whole human race. Human’s history, as in ancient origins became the beginning of that whole human psyche.  His four focuses were:

• Persona: The person we are to the outward world
• Anima: Is the other gender to ourselves. If we are born female, we have male traits or behaviours. If male, they also have traits of the opposite sex. All humans carry both masculine and feminine qualities.
• Shadow: Is your primal instinct, the part of your personality that is still an animal.
• Self: Is a self of oneness.

Quoting

“Jung’s theory in his book The Undiscovered Self was of the opinion a lot of problems today’s life are “man’s progressive alienation from his instinctual foundation”.

Recipe – Duck Spring Rolls & BBQ Sauce

Ready to Roll Pastry – Filo

Finely Slice:

Carrot

Onion

Garlic

Ginger

Bamboo shoots

Bean Sprouts

Chilli

and Duck

Roast or Pan Fry the duck, in Chinese five-Spice, Soy, Ginger, Salt & Pepper, usually white pepper. Finely slice into strips. I fry off the veg with soy sauce and the Chinese five-spice. Leave to go cold and when cold, roll in filo and shallow fry.

I love cooking Chinese food as it is healthy and is full of vitamins and these recipes have a long history in a fertile land that has clean soil or did but thanks to pollution and acid rain caused by all nations, we have a spoiled planet. These ingredients are easy to grow at home and the seeds and pots, and compost are available on amazon. I grow herbs at the moments, such as parsley, basil, oregano, mint, thyme and rosemary. My next windowsill garden addition is spices, also available on amazon.

Eastern Spice and Veg are easily grown and though some are from hotter climates than we have here in the West and in the UK, it doesn’t mean you cannot grow it on your windows cill like I do.

I used the residue cooking of the duck and veg for the BBQ sauce as a reduction, add brown sugar and if the sauce does NOT thicken, add cornflour.

Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder

In today’s media beauty is as fake as the people reporting and judging it. We look at certain celebrities and judge them in their airbrushed, cosmetically altered images, along with the interview about their so-called lives which is as fake as the image you are judging. https://melissaannecolors.com/sense-of-mind/

We are thankfully seeing more body types in the media, in films, in tv and advertising. Yet, we are still seeing adverts for cosmetic surgery as well as tv shows about these procedures. There is nothing I find less attractive or invasives on the self-esteem of society. I alter my images for a certain aesthetic because I write erotica, horror and fantasy. Depending on which genre of book I am promoting is depending on which image I use. https://www.betterhelp.com/advice/general/the-importance-of-a-strong-sense-of-self-and-how-to-gain-it/

Altered images in the world of celebrity aren’t healthy as people who buy tabloid gossip magazines and watch reality tv are sucked into trying to achieve these styles and looks or this turns in infatuation and awe over-edited and skewered reality tv shows and documentary soaps or edited airbrushed images with bullshit interviews due to it being an agent actually giving the interview and usually not the celebrity themselves. https://positivepsychology.com/self-esteem-worksheets/

On my media, I aim to promote my books, first and foremost and also my blog’s content. I want my followers and audience to be healthy emotionally, mentally and physically. To do this I have a level of transparency that doesn’t comprising my privacy but doesn’t give my audience a false idea of me as a human being doing a job in the entertainment industry and needing to be image aware and yet remain untainted by other peoples and media expectation. https://turn2me.org/

I do NOT have an agent of any sort and do all my own images, my own blog, editing and books. I do hire cover artist, graphic designers and my book publishers Crushing Hearts & Black Butterfly pay for the editor and cover artist if need be. I pay for the rest of it on a tiny budget and I make up for the lack of cash by doing all the work myself and even if I did get an agent, I would still do most of the work and networking. I wouldn’t let that agent make it about the image as that is tabloid trash and I am far from that, I do not condone that sign your name here, smile that’s right you’re a star kind of deal and most celebrities these days fall into merchandise of sell any old crap rather than what that celeb is actually known for and the reason for this is societies image and self-esteem hang-ups, perpetuated by capitalism. https://www.mind.org.uk/news-campaigns/news/

Here on my blog, there are healthy recipes, sensory ideas and books. All of which promote health mentally, physically and emotionally. Things I suffer with are other people and society. I don’t have self-esteem problems and would never have cosmetic surgery and I hate peer pressure and never want to deal with those who are gossip mongers and easy custom for the statistics industry and are just good breeders into the workforce and good little mindless consumers, brainwashed into the world of celebrity and see it as fact rather than a smoking mirror of illusion and bullshit.
