Here is a really thorough review of the benefits of Red Light Therapy particularly regarding brain health but bear in mind that these guys make devices so it leans a bit towards sales speak & somewhat glorified interpretations of research but skimming through I cannot argue with it much except that, as with most natural therapies, getting proper extensive research done is nigh impossible if it’s going to detract from Big Pharma profit & if you read the possible list of benefits, like natural Progesterone- some unpatentable things just help too many lucrative conditions.
Also, as I said, Sunlight is the real healer. Warmth & Light from the Sun, if your climate & emotional psychological disposition permits, otherwise this therapy might help you get out there.
(Some big successes as well actually, see below) Small personal success, I’ve got the paddle board on the van on soft bars on my own….. this means I can take the kayak on the van if I get help loading & unloading…. For some reason I thought the van roof was somehow concave or convex or wtv in my mind….. it’s not, it’s flat…..duh…. (It is curved inside though …. Lol) So pleased - essentially I can take both water vehicles out on same trip too, again with help loading…. So exciting!
I’ve definitely had & am having progress with my overall mental health, it seems to be from the Isochronic Tones, I’m definitely less emotionally reactive (from BPD) over small things which is awesome …. & also I’ve been doing what I call practical technical things that I find really hard to focus on (from ADD) finding some of these things somewhat easier to do so woo 😄 hula hula 🥰
And that’s not even the biggest winner, I credit Isochronic Tones (plus some other Binaural Beats, ADHD specific ones) with a whopping reduction in anxiety from always being more than 6/7 out of 10 to having a baseline 0/2 out of 10 most of the time with also considerably less of an excruciating stress rise when I’m triggered…. To say I’m delighted does not cover it….I’ve suffered constant painful anxiety for years, decades….the longest time.
I found this comment about ADHD anxiety being different from Anxiety Disorders, having different underpinings….Hopefully I will properly research the difference between GAD & ADHD Anxiety at some point but for now this comment rings true.
Also I’ve dropped my anti-anxiety herb Skullcap & replaced with some ADHD herbs which have different actions in the brain/nervous system (Bacopa & Gingko) so I will include them as being part of this positive shift that I’m in.
The research on Binaural Beats & Iso Tones does not recommend it for those with Severe Mental Illness, that’s a disclaimer that you can take that with a pinch of salt if you’ve ever been screwed around with by mainstream medicine for MH reasons & suffered, which is nearly everyone & if you are ready to take responsibility for being conscious of trusting your perception of how things affect you then this is absolutely for you.
All natural alternative health things have the bare minimum of research because the big money for research is tied up with big profit pharmaceuticals. But you knew that.
This was a really great detailed discussion covering a lot of interesting ground, a worthy 36 mins of your time to understand the evolution of the Covid Virus over the time its been around.
Being politically on the Left (and quite active as that on twitter) I have felt it necessary to keep pretty quiet about the following but I am, what I would call an Original Anti-Vaxxer of 35 years standing. For me, the historical data is clear, clean water, sanitation, improved access to good nutrition, protection from the elements & relative relief from poverty saved us from disease epidemics, vaccines were just bystanders to this great shift in child mortality in the early 20th century IMO. Also, germ theory uptake was massive too, I mean basic hand washing, cleanliness. Where people live in filth, conflict, oppression, malnutrition & general human degradation vaccines do provide relief but not entirely without cost.
Big Pharma profits so massively from vaccines & drugs, we need to ask where is the profit in providing clean water, relieving poverty etc - there is none, no monetary incentive, though the human profit is obvious to all. In the same way, war is profitable, incredibly lucrative, but detrimental to all lifeforms on Earth bar the .01% Superich - yer, the ones with all the big Yachts, private Jets & now Private Space Travel, those ones.
Again all this is just in IMO - I'm not even sure I'm legally allowed to have a public opinion on these subjects any more with the highly censored & oppressive nature of the times we are in.
Anyway, that was a personal byline really - the message is in the video - in which 2 highly credentialed mainstream Dr's describe the preferential nature of Natural Immunity proffered by the latest version of the virus - which incidentally came about by passing through a largely unvaccinated population - their healthy immune systems effectively downgrading it for the good of all.
Also, they discuss how for many people, the vaccine has provided a vital bridge over which to escape the worst of the earlier more deadly versions of the Virus, but will become pretty redundant imminently, as Omicron becomes naturally endemic with every chance of providing long term natural community immunity.
In this new virus reality described above, Vaccine Passports do not have any meaningful purpose whatsoever other than a State imposed profound injury to our fundamental human rights.
This is from 2 years ago “Ceremony, Relationships & Communal Living” - Russell Brand talking to shaman Wendy Mandy, to be fair the first half was the best bit but with lots of loose threads that I would have loved to have heard unravelled - the second half ended up being predominantly about psychological healing with powerful natural psychoactive substances, which I’m less keen on with my very fragile nervous system, particularly when certain very simple lifestyle/dietary changes/supplements can be so transformative.
Also, I’ve been peripheral to the use of very many of these psychoactive substances mentioned in the second half, in friends that are essentially undiagnosed severely mentally ill & despite many many safeguards, extensive knowledge & proper supervision the desired effects of psyche repair did not take place in this population, in fact I’ve seen people worsen with these substances. But, that said, I do still believe they have an important place in healing, as does the now becoming mainstream medicinal use of ketamine, MDMA & even LSD in psyche repair….. & better compared to most of the mainstream psyche drugs available which I would not touch with a barge pole personally.
I love & get huge benefits from my (citations in the sidebar) DL Phenylalanine powder, which is an individual amino acid that has specific beneficial effects on the nervous system, also my N-Acetyl Cysteine powder and my pure GABA powder. This summer I have been back on Kava Kava in the evening to get my cortisol under control which is fab & I’ve been using CBD oil by mouth too for a month which is lovely but too expensive to come to rely on. I also take masses of B vitamins, Vit C & high EPA fish oil every day (plus D & K2 & E for being old). I cannot eat refined sugar period & alcohol would have me hospitalised in no time…..just sayin….. 15 years sober otherwise I would have died…….& I have to be in nature twice a day whatever the weather…. it’s a bit austere but it works, being inside cut off for the sky & the Earth can be majorly depressive.
One last thing….. she’s got to me, Wendy, she’s reminding me of things I knew and since finding this video the other day I’ve stopped using my headphones in nature to reconnect my consciousness with the consciousness surrounding me in my local area & it’s been so so helpful & grounding….. there was a reason I started using headphones, I was trying to protect my nervous system from my own bark reactive dogs & as a way to avoid other people but it’s made me increasingly orphaned in my sense of place so I’ve stopped using them. I will still take them out though, they’re my favourite body armour. 😍
This video is not intended to make anyone on meds do anything rash, it is a very general video which is extremely powerful in its capacity to somewhat humorously explain the intense predicament we are in with “science” - love it…..thank you so much Russell 💜
