The Best Defense is A Good Offense

Staying sane and grounded in this insane and ungrounded world

There is a war being fought for our minds and our physical and mental health

Turn on the rectangle of choice we get a view into the carefully controlled media the powers that be want you to see.

The goal is to make you feel dehumanized, helpless, and hopeless unless you follow their narrative.

Before modern technology, our lives were simpler, and on many levels a lot more stress-free.

Our concerns hit closer to home- elections focused on the sheriff, the mayor, and even the school board elections.

Not that technology is all bad, it’s just it has hit us with such force at such a breakneck speed that we haven’t had time to absorb and acknowledge its impact.

The byproduct is the toll it has taken on our mental and physical health.

It started decades before but reached its peak during the pandemic

The feeling of hopelessness and inability of climbing out of the hole of dark thoughts reached its climax as the mandates caused people to lose jobs, in turn losing hope and being forced to rely on the government for assistance.

This is the very government that allowed, and in some cases forced the physical mental, and emotional handcuffs, leading to skyrocketing rates of suicide, domestic abuse, obesity, and health-related illnesses. This was all part of their plan.

Approach life tactically- just like our military

No doubt about it, we are all in a war.  We can glean some tips from our own military to take back our lives, sovereignty, and integrity.

A large section of our population is suffering from a condition known by our military as Combat and operational stress reactions.

The website defines this as:

Combat and operational stress reactions (COSRs) are defined as "physical, emotional, cognitive, or behavioral reactions, adverse consequences, or psychological injuries of service members who have been exposed to stressful or traumatic events in combat or military operations.”

Symptoms include fatigue, sleep problems, decreased attention, hypervigilance, social withdrawal, and anxiety. Sound familiar?

A few of their suggestions gleaned from the website are:

Encourage social connections

• Focus on what is right in front of you. Turn off the TV, computer, phone, or pad. What is most important is your relationships with those you care about.
• Plan outings to get away from the constant barrage of controlled “news”- (indoctrination)
• Learn a skill together. Any type of activity that brings you and your social circle together will dramatically bring your stress level down. Try learning to cook, join a club with mutual interest, or even working on crafts together can help.

• Volunteer- This may be the fastest and most effective way to get out of your own head. Check online for opportunities. Check with your family, friends, or neighbors for opportunities to serve. You will get more out of the experience than they will in most cases.
• Actively seek social connection. It takes effort to get the ball rolling.
• Once you have started, don’t quit. Schedule and commit. You will reap the most benefits with a consistent social life.

Practice a healthy lifestyle

• Plan your meals around healthy food choices. Be consistent. Food intake dramatically influences emotional and physical health.
• Take time to eat. Digestion works best when eating in a calm relaxed atmosphere.

• Get good quality sleep. Sleep is one of the most underestimated factors pointing to health outcomes. Sleep is when our bodies detoxify, repair, and process the days’ events. Turn off rectangles an hour or more before bedtime. If able, unplug the Wi-Fi router. Wi-Fi signals are known to disrupt melatonin production, leading to sleep disturbances and negative health outcomes.
• Make exercise fun. The health benefits of even mild, consistent exercise are phenomenal. It reduces cortisol levels, improves immune function, builds muscle, oxygenates the body, and is a mental health boost. If you haven’t started exercising, go slow. Aim for at least 30 minutes of activity 5 times a week. This could include walking, rebound jogging, or joining a gym or exercise class.
• Nature is a great healer. Eat lunch outside- or take a walk or garden. Read a book in the park. Just get outside and experience life outside your four walls.

Implement stress-reducing tactics

• Essential oils have proven stress-reducing qualities. Lavender is widely known to promote calmness. Other oils, such as peppermint and citrus oils are stimulating and can help focus when dealing with stress or needing to focus. Diffuse oils or add a few drops to a warm bath or apply them diluted to pulse points. (inner wrists, temples)
• Learn and practice tactical breathing (also known as box breathing).

• Practice meditation, prayer, yoga, or other forms of focus that bring calm and centering to your life.
• Limit media consumption. Set specific times for checking updates, limiting yourself to once or twice a day.
• And most importantly- remember, this too shall pass. No matter what is going on in the world, having the tools to cope is only half the solution. Implementation and consistency lead to a healthier, happier life.
