sobriety is much better than being under the influence of external chemicals on a regular basis
it seems so simple, yet it's taken me so long to figure this out

I'm more on edge if I don't smoke for a while, but that's just my normal state.
Wish I still had some.

I have smoked the last of my weed and cant find any good stuff around these parts at the moment.
I would rather stay sober than spend £20 on some crappy wet green..

Good luck to you mate, i dont think i could go as long as six months without smoking weed.
I find it so much harder to quit when all my mates are constantly smoking infront of me!

I've been wanting to get into meditation for some time now but haven't gotten around to it any tips?

True, I wouldn't be able to do this if it were the summer, but since all my buddies are in school or working we're not always sitting around bored so the temptation isn't as strong.

I don't know where you live but in my city there are meditation retreats where they can teach you but it's usually about 100 dollars or more. Personally, I think they should just teach it for free, you would think they would be a little bit more compassionate.
I learned Vipassana meditation from my sister - that is the meditation I would recommend to you. Look up some info online and then just practice it yourself and just go in to it with the goal of stopping your thoughts and eventually you will understand more and get better at it over time. Vipassana meditation incorporates body scanning (focusing awareness over your body parts one at a time) and constant return to focusing on your breath at the end of a thought and then the pause between thoughts will become greater as you gain better control of your mind

That is great! I am trying to get a new job so I too just started quitting. Today is my first sober day but after quitting crack and meth, weed seems to be an easy task.

I'm at two weeks myself and feeling absolutely fantastic, alert, full of confidence, and on the right path.

For sure! I've never had a problem with quitting weed - I think the only reason why my breaks in the past have been so short is because my friends would always offer me a bowl or a joint and I'd think "why not..?" but now I realize that, at least for me, my mind only really begins to get clear after a couple weeks so I didn't realize the significant difference between sober and stoned.

Meditation definitely improves your chances of having a lucid dream. I actually don't have that much experience with them, but the ones I have had were of the kind that you 'slip into' right from waking consciousness rather than becoming aware part way through.

i must add:
i plan on quitting the daily habit, even the once every now and then, i still like the herb but you gotta listen to mckenna: if you're going to smoke weed, don't smoke all the time, take long intervals and then smoke a whole bunch at once and you will see how hallucinogenic it really is. much more of an experience istead of using it as a crutch to get by everyday life

To those who get fucked up every day, I envy you. I wish I could do the same.
