hello !! i’ve been trying to expand my taste in books and read from other cultures, i’ve always been so interested with native american culture and would love to read something inspired by the deer woman :)
(preferably fictional books)
hello !! so i have never read any of the classics and i really want to, however i can’t seem to understand them at all. i thought it may have something to do with the fact that i had issues with school so i never was able to have proper lessons of the classics in english, the closest i ever got was analysing a few pages from those books.
i really do want to be able to read them though, i think there’s a lot of beauty in older writing and i’d love to broaden my taste and vocabulary. but the language is so…complicated ? i guess ? i tried reading pride and prejudice and i couldn’t tell you anything that happens 🥹
does anyone have any ideas on how to familiarise and understand the language used in classics so i’m able to read them and actually take in what i’m reading ?
hello !! so for a bit of background, i am a full time wheelchair user with a muscle condition, i also had to have spinal surgery (i also have anxiety, ptsd and adhd)
i do have physio that i do but i wanted to try something that would help with my anxiety and ptsd as i feel like my brain is always intense and stressed
i know yoga is a good release both physically and emotionally but i can’t really do it due to the physical aspect, however i found out about yoga nidra and it seems like it could be a good fit for me, especially since i tried meditation and struggled with it due to the sitting up aspect of it and from what i understand on my limited knowledge, yoga nidra is a form of meditation (correct me if i’m wrong)
i understand no one here is a medical professional but is yoga nidra a more accessible thing i can try out ? also if anyone has done it, did you notice any improvement ? i just feel like i need to do something outside of physio to help boost my mental health and mindfulness seemed like the best way to go :)
hello !! i wanted to ask for recommendations on reputable places to get my first jade bangle, i live in an area in britain where there aren’t any stores close by that would have jade jewellery and i have no idea where to look online 🥹
any help would be appreciated :)
i was recently diagnosed and i know it’s a stereotype that people with adhd are impulsive and spontaneous but i absolutely hate being spontaneous
i needs a routine and when i have a routine in my head i get so annoyed when it’s not followed by other people, i went out with my family for a walk in the evening and then in the car, they spontaneously decided to stop off at a family members house for an hour and i got so irritated
it’s because in my mind, i had a plan of what i wanted to do, go for a walk, go home and have my needed downtime before i sleep and this completely threw me off, and now my family are annoyed bcs i’m snappy and angry, i don’t know why i get so worked up over a routine change, but i like routine when it’s on my own terms and stuff like this always winds me up
i understand i can’t prevent spontaneous things but i can’t help the annoyance i feel when my routine is changed even tho i’m the only one following it
hello !! i’ve been in a shifting rut recently bcs i feel like nothing is working, i want to try meditation so much but i find it so hard to
i have adhd, anxiety and ptsd and i feel like meditation has so many rules that clash with the existing diagnoses, i feel like i’m not doing it right, breathing exercises make me feel tense and idk what to do
everyone says that working inwards is the best way to really understand yourself and shifting but i just don’t know how to do that, maybe it’s my neurodivergent brain constantly searching for specific instructions or taking it too literally but i feel like everyone knows what to do but me
i know that meditation and inward work would help my journey so much but i get too distracted and tense and i have no idea what to do, can anyone maybe give a detailed explanation or any advice on meditation, inward work (or shifting methods) that’s neurodivergent friendly ?

hello !! i didn’t know where else to ask this but i’m really curious. i adore the artwork of a kpop idol called gehlee and i love how she draws people but i have no idea where to start
i tried to learn anatomy in the past but i really struggled with it, i have adhd so all of the ways people told me to learn how to draw people never aligned well with my brain and i always get so frustrated with it, i struggle with focus as well so the youtube videos never clicked in my mind whenever i tried to learn
i want to be able to draw people so much but i find it so hard with the way my brain works, does anyone have any tips that may help me start learning anatomy that are adhd friendly ?
hello !! i’m asking this bcs breath work has always been something i found didn’t work for me, j have diagnosed anxiety and ptsd and breath work always makes me feel more tense and anxious
however i understand breath work is a big part of meditation, i just wanted to know, is there forms of meditation that don’t require the focus on breathing ? because i really want to meditate consistently for my own wellbeing but breath work is what puts me off and idk if there’s other ways to meditate that exclude breath work
hello !! so i was making an oc and i want her to have a quirk like nejire’s but moon and water related, however i couldn’t think of a way to merge these ideas together in a way that works
i came up with the idea of like moon energy and illusions but that was as far as i could think
can anyone help me think of any better ideas bcs i am struggling so bad with this 😭
hello !! so i still live at home w my parents and i am a beginner to witchcraft (i have some of the recommended beginners books that i want to start reading)
however my family aren’t very big on witchcraft, they think spirituality and witchcraft is not real etc etc and they might make fun of me for being into it (they’re not dangerous or anything dw, they just aren’t really into that stuff and things in my family become a joke a lot of the time)
i got into witchcraft due to feeling very connected to it and spirituality (i’ve always been connected to water and the moon as well) and being told by a friend who comes from a witch/pagan family that she senses energy (idk the right term) from me and she said i had potential
i’m also disabled so i rely on them a lot for help plus my room is accessible for my wheelchair so there isn’t any room for an alter i don’t think
my question is, how do i practice and get into witchcraft when my house isn’t really suited for it ?
okay so me and my friend were talking about old cringy phases we had and i brought up how big into the dream smp i was, we were talking about fanfic and i brought up this one dream wattpad fic i read when i was 12 and was telling her how it was surprisingly really good even tho i don’t fw the fandom anymore
however i can’t find the fic anywhere, idk the name of it but i remember it either being an x oc or x reader, there was a point in the plot where reader had a toxic friendship with this girl, she managed this friends youtube and twitch or smth like that
there was one chapter where they all went to the beach and the toxic friend was all over dream but dream didn’t like her
i wanted to find it bcs even tho i don’t really like dream or the dream smp anymore, i do remember this fic being really good
