I guess I’m just unsure of what I’m doing and looking for some guidance. I’m feeling a bit lost.
There are so many amazing tracks to choose from, and I’ve been researching the ones that seem most pertinent right now, by putting each one into the search bar of this forum, in order to get some more insight into the specifics of what they do, and how and when to listen to them.
I’ve mixed up the PONR stack, using the info from Sammy and Om, to see how that plays out.
I’ve put PTSD in the middle because it’s powerful - so I wanted a break between it and the morning and evening stacks (like having breakfast, lunch then supper. PTSD is lunch) - and because the description really resonated with me.
I put Mindfulness after it, again because of the description, plus I thought it would be calming. I also think someone else on the forum mentioned playing Mindfulness after PTSD.
Then I’ve chosen Plasma for much the same reasons.
It’s powerful, covers a multitude of issues, and I thought I could play it on the days I’m not listening to PTSD.
I thought maybe it would be too much, adding it to the AM and PM playlists, and that it might be better to give it its own slot, so to speak.
I guess I’m trying to cram as much in there as possible, which may not be the best approach… Hit my problems from multiple angles to see what works.
The reason I do 3 mins of Plasma, then 3 mins of grounding, is because of this:
One of the reasons I’m very depressed at the moment is because I have some physical issues, which are causing me pain and exacerbating my low mood. So, I thought I might be able to add four more, purely physicality based tracks, to help with those.
But yes, you’re right; Plasma does work on a physical level, so maybe that’s enough for the moment.
I have Borderline Personality Disorder, which is making me pretty paranoid and insecure (it also means I tend to overshare), plus I’m menopausal and my emotions are all over the place.
This forum is a little intimidating. Everyone is lovely and super helpful, however, I find it hard sometimes to understand the descriptions of the more complex fields, and I don’t always understand what’s being talked about in the different chats. It’s a bit like a different language. Like computer code, or something. It may be my age. Or just that I’m stoopid!
You’re all very knowledgeable and seem like a really close-knit community, but to a newbie, who’s trying to wade through all these incredible, and unknown, concepts, it can get confusing and frustrating.
Thank you for replying and for your advice.
I really do appreciate you taking the time to answer me
Sorry for the essay like response. Don’t worry about replying. I’ll figure it out as I go along. I just wanted to explain the thinking behind my choices.
