Quitting marijuana, music

everyone should paint or draw.  :idea:

I agree. Drawing and painting make use of the right brain hemisphere, which in most people is chronically under-employed. Usually we are just perceiving symbols with our left hemisphere, and thinking in symbols as well (language, mainly). The right hemisphere perceives not in symbols, but in the raw, unfiltered spatial data. Activating the right hemisphere and training yourself to use it will increase your inner peace as you move away from symbol-thinking and into unfiltered presence, and also increase your ability to creatively visualise, which is useful.

There's a great book with a clever title, if anyone is interested, called Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards.

Also thanks for sharing @Relaxo, I enjoy reading psychedelic experiences. Especially when things don't quite go to plan. Your thoughts on who reacts well or not to psychedelics are interesting, because my younger brother is autistic, but now he loves weed and LSD. I think it's been really good for him. He's not the anxious type of autistic though, at least not anymore, more of the "I don't understand humans, but I don't care to either" and just rampages his own path through life with a permanent grin on his face. He's even got a girlfriend now. I love him. I have convinced him to come down to Byron Bay with some LSD so we can go ocean swimming/free diving together with all the sea creatures.
