| Classical conditioning works on yourself, for good or evil. Beware it happening unintentionally. It's boring, but stay hydrated! If you are sensitive to being hyper/attention deficit with caffeine but still feel like you need it consider taking it with l-theanine. If you find yourself relying on caffine and you want more control, stop drinking coffee or soda and take pills/measured powder doeses. It's taboo, but you want to isolate it from the conditioning of the ritual/taste/mouth feel. If it turns out you really want those things there are ways to get them that are healthier and often they are just as powerful as the drug itself. Be intentional with your daily habits. It doesn't matter what you do, but daily rituals have a lot of power over establishing your attitude and mindset. Be mindful of what your habits cause in you, and change them if you don't like it. Caffeine and other addictive stimulants will require escalating dosage with time. You can quit every few months to partially reset that. Returns diminish and if you find yourself here, rethink your life. By default, if you feel weary rest for a few minutes then re-evaulate. If you never let the endorphins wear off you never know how badly you have hurt/worn out yourself. This goes for a lot of things, take a few minutes sit and be mindful to see what your body needs. Keep up your core strength. You need it for everything and it saves your back. If you take a hard spill/fall. STAY DOWN for a few minutes if it is safe, until your heart rate falls down and you can actually take an inventory of your body without endorphins running through it. This will consistently result in injuries being less severe. You can do a lot of extra damage to yourself while endorphins are painkilling you. |
