Quitting Marijuana

New commitment for the show...   Weekly.  I need it, and it's the right thing to do.  Please note that 26:45 - 38:08 is all about back pain and PT you can do at home to make it better, sorry you are going through that Jamie!  Workout below Loosen quads with foam roller, theragun, or couch stretch. Loosen back with lacrosse ball Begin vacuums (15-30 reps) Deadbugs (on back, 20 reps each side/a...

With a quick mind and ready smile Greg really laid it out there.  He gave me a lot to think about!  You can't see the video but we were both grinning and laughing as we talked, hopefully we can meet up in the real world some day.  Great guy and a big shout-out to him for coming on and digging deep!  Side note:  My wife ended up overhearing part of our conversation and turns out I've been...

Audio is not nearly as wonky this time but still has a trace of echo, my apologies!!!  Stay strong y'all, spring is a time of change and new life.  

First time hitting 30 days in years!!!  Had some audio equipment issues, better by the mid-way point.  

The one, the only... DARIA!!!   She is a legend and it was amazing to finally connect in real time after all the back and forth we've had over the years.  Just totally awesome, and of course when Zoom kicked us off we had to connect again and dig even deeper, sorry but it's off the record!  In this episode the audio goes straight into the conversation, no intro/outro by me.  Many, MANY t...

This girl is amazing, she has seen and done so much and she is so mature in her faith.  We're going to do another episode on God and all the grace he has shown us, she is a prayer warrior.  No intro/outro on this episode, we just get right into the conversation.   If you're interested in coming on and sharing your story shoot me an email at quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com.   

Work conflict, temptations to smoke with brother, eating fiber, reasons to scout int he winter/early spring.   Another "Conversation about Quitting" has been lined up!  March 18th we're going to talk shop, if you'd like to have an anonymous convo about what weed has done to your life and why you're trying to quit/have quit let me know at quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com

Peace, pornography, "smash" mobilization for knee pain

Hi everybody!  Sent out a mass email asking for what they hate most about this podcast/me and actually got a few responses!  Much love to everyone who replied, hopefully this new format will strike you in the right place.    See you on the other side

Have not kept up on my meditating and man I can really feel it.   About 2/3rds of the way in on this episode I discuss a virtual MA meeting I attended on Sunday evening.  Hope all is well everybody

Totally upfront here, I spend the first half talking about the state of the world and some prepping.  I have been following global affairs closely the past few months and even closer the last few weeks.  It is getting serious and escalating rapidly.  If you don't know what the World Economic Forum is, you should check that out.  And if you don't already know the WEF, you are probably not...

Quitting marijuana is a journey AWAY from past behaviors generated by a weak, heavy mind that requires conscious and intentional action to develop a new mentality.   What fires you up?  Is it church, sports figures, philosophers?  I (and the rest of us!) want more resources to choose from, more positivity to replace the trash that I was allowing into my head.    We've got a global audience he...

Multiple computer issues on this podcast combined with my own ineptitude.  If you have a story to share, send it to quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com, I am just some random dude trying to do a good thing and your stories don't go any farther than this.  Try to include 1 reason why you like smoking, 1 reason why you hate smoking, and maybe a quick bit on what propelled you to quit.   Even bet...

Nightmares are back but still clean!  Great message from Jamie, she is an awesome woman.  

Dang!!! Lost 10 min of audio, wondered why that little garageband symbol kept jumping up and down...  But good to be with ya!  Just getting the chops back

Since dropping this episode I talked to my wife and had some deep thoughts.  I'd like to keep this going but in a different format, one of motivational speaker.  This topic moves me more than injury prevention or conservation, though I'd always believed I had to do those first to try and gain financial independence.  I'm a better man now after the mistakes and poor decisions I'...

She is a BEAST!!! 

Man, had a great day at school today we are finally gelling.  And I did not use drugs today!  Hope the same can be said for you, hang in there y'all.  

Hi everyone, what a wild night.  Hang in there 

Alas, you're stuck with me instead of a winner.  

Morning monologue, gets serious at the end as I share about two articles I read about teens who committed suicide after using high-potency concentrates.  Sorry I am totally beat from open house tonight, did not include scripture or a quote.  But I am still sober!  Much love.  

Hunting, school, life.  

Slow start, then things get real.  

Mixing things up a bit, going to be a few days before my brain cells regenerate.  Going to try and keep a Mon/Fri schedule for dropping episodes, possibly a Tues/Thurs.  

What's good everybody, I did NOT smoke last night which made the 04:00 wakeup a lot easier.  Was able to do everything on the list, dog, greens shake, bible, meditate (while squeezing core), back PT, and even had time for some emails.  Students were tough today so my throat is pretty tired but I recapped the shroom experience I had while I was absent from the show.  Hope you're doing wel...
