Thanks Dr. Lawrie!

You are truly an exceptional person and I admire your courage. When I read your articles and listen to your interviews, there is a sincere and thoughtful persona you exude which truly demonstrates your compassion to help people. God bless you! 🙏

Thanks dr. Lawrie.

I sure hope we unvaxxed are not marginalizing the vaxx injured. They are ostracised by their original tribe who bought into the vaccines and could be ostracized by our group for having taken the jabs. That leaves them with little support. We should embrace them, not give them the "that's what they get" attitude that much of society imposed on us when they suggested we should not be treated on par with the vaccinated, re covid.

I keep telling my mom’s 85 years old boosted companion We we’re lied to & you thought you were doing the right thing, but the news is hiding It’s NOT safe & effective. We all were hoodwinked!

Same with 85 y.o. 2 x vaxx stepdad. He understands. The good news is avoiding the boosters will be important, so he feels good about that.

Good to hear. My mom tricked him into last booster.

As you say, everyone has their own program of self-care. I will share some of the practices I have been utilizing over the years. First, meditation doesn't always come easy to most people. There are numerous videos that can get you started. But these might not work for you. Don't be dismayed, there are different ways to meditate. I have always meditated while focusing on projects that my mind must get lost in. Studying a language, take up music, draw, or write. Jumping is a good activity to feel like you are moving, doing something active, and expressing yourself-.. Get distracted. Change rooms in your house. Go into the garden, even if it is cold. If you are able to, get outside and move, take the initial idea as a incentive to change your energy. Even in the city, find somewhere with trees, a path in the woods. If you don't have a car, walk, run, bike. Pick a place that you need to be away for as many hours as you like. Take control of your destiny by enjoying every moment you spend with yourself not knowing what comes next. Just inspire yourself with a small project. Each little step you take from either despair, frustration, anger, self-abuse, is an accomplishment. Get comfortable with little goals and you start to feel what it means to win!

Check into Wim Hof’s three pillars for self-care and grounding.

-Daily cold showers for two minutes

-Learn how to breath

-Be in charge of your mindset

It may not be for everyone, still do try it out. Been practicing almost the same method since childhood. It opens new (old) pathways that have been closed inside your body.

He is an remarkable human being.

My husband does this everyday and swears by it , love wim xx

Would you attempt this during covid? I am on day 3 of symptoms & even with IVM, I'm pretty miserable.

Maybe it's best to wait until I recover before I attempt something so new?

Let your body tell you what you can do. It will guide you.

I do it everyday since years, even when having a fever.

I'm intrigued by his methods but just can't do the cold shower yet. Guess I should start now while the summer sun shines. :)

Expand full comment

Start with just 10-15 seconds after you have had your warm shower and then gradually work your way up to longer time.

It opens up your circulatory system and those little tiny capillaries that is part of this wonderful consistent in our bodies.

Your skin will feel and look amazing. It is true inner work by your own body.

Good luck.

I just saw yet another hit piece on vitamen D on CNN, and I fear that one of things that is being missed for people who are depressed and suicidal is nutrition. It would be great to bring in spokespeople from the orthomolecular medicine organization as our food, at least in the US, is robbed of many nutrients

http://orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v16n54.shtml, and pharmaceuticals, even the good ones that work and offer good risk/benefit analysis, strip away nutrients, particularly over time. Stress is voracious in its consumption of nutrients, and chronic stress creates high cortisol. Inflation is causing people not to be able to afford healthy food, and probably people are choosing between rent and vitamins. Kids may not show the signs of malnutrition, but teenagers, who are transforming by the moment, need extra good nutrition. In the US, when flour began being milled to turn it white, the mental hospitals filled up. Later they began enriching it. Think of all those sailors without fresh fruit getting scurvy. I've thought many of the despairing of the 20's--Hart Crane's suicide, Zelda and Scott Fitzgerald--were doubly B vitamin deficient as they were Roaring Twenties drinkers and were eating white flour, stripped of B vitamins. We need to start the Maslow hierarchy of needs with what the body needs. We give our houseplants more nutrition than we give ourselves. I really think lives could be saved if inexpensive ways to saturate the body with nutrients could be found and publicized. When they went after Joe Rogan on Saturday Night Live they ridiculed him for advocating zinc. I think if the depressed start with the needs of the body, truly, the despair might begin to be lessened. Get those orthomolecular people in on this. Pharma's been after them for 50 years!

For anyone unfamiliar with self hypnosis or meditations, could I recommend the Silva method as a fairly easy to learn technique. In its simplist form it has THREE stages that progress from easiest to the most deep.

It begins by actively imagining and feeling your body relax, from head to toe, bit by bit. Just lay there and enjoy the feeling of being fully relaxed.

From the state of being physically relaxed the next state is to become mentally relaxed, by imagining a place or positive environment you want to be in. A day dream. Maybe you are in the sun by a lake. Maybe it's at the park. Wherever you go in your mind, it should be relaxing and make you feel entirely at peace being there.

The third stage is where you switch from actively feeling physically and mentally relaxed into a deeper state of presence and mindfulness. Be at peace that right now in the moment you are already at peace.This third stage is not dissimilar to meditation or being in a hypnotic trance. Your subconscious is at your fingertips.

Whether you can master the third stage or not is not so important. The first stage alone has benefits for your body. The second even more benefits for your endocrine and neurological system too. If you can reach the third stage and keep it there, you are in the space that magic can happen. You can heal yourself. You can change habits. You can let your monkey mind stop clinking and chattering and smooth it all out.

I agree: Standing up for truth demands tender loving self-care. In fact, over the past winter, I have been pulled more and more to creative projects. Yes, I'm still doing idea pieces. Plus interviews with fabulous truth warriors. But I've also recorded a few spoken word pieces, including a couple of love poems. Self-care.

Tess, what a beautiful post! Yes, I count myself as one of the mentally exhausted, but I know what is truth, and I keep trying to help others avoid serious injury or death from the vaccine. I meet MANY people who have turned bitter for having held out, and have a great deal of animosity. They were hounded, and are not quick to forgive.

I try to tell them to see it from the other people's point of view. They trusted a number of authorities who they are now having a crisis of faith in. They took the jab for good (and fearful) intents, and are now living with a different kind of mental exhaustion - knowing that there are people out there dying early, and wondering when their time is up. Imagine the mental load of knowing you helped encourage others to get jabbed, and now they're injured or dead. Imagine doing that to your children.

For some, they'll retreat into denial, because they can't handle the truth, don't want to face the truth, or think they're still doing the right thing.

For the others, they deserve some compassion, knowing that they may have likely made a fatal or life altering mistake.

We don't have to accept the vitriol from people who may be bitter towards us for having the fortitude and intelligence to stand up against it, and have a normal life free of the same burdens they live with constantly.

They're scared.

And angry.

Share the good news of what you've learned (maybe through flccc.net?), and encourage them to look further themselves. That will help give them some purpose. And encourage them to cherish life more fully each and every day, rather than wallow in bitterness and dread.

And be a friend.

Even though they're part of a HUGE number of vaccinated people, they feel alone. And with the efforts to isolate from one another, they may very well be more alone than we realize.

Be a friend. You might gain a trusted friend as well.

And that undermines the globalists' effort to divide us.

A beautiful post. Thank you from a big fan. Members of the army of truth need to step back and refresh itself. The stress itself is robbing sleep and metabolism of its strength.

Mostly we need to remember to look for nuggets of good news every day. And truly those are coming faster, in greater number. It takes some searching and consolidating, but definitely there.

You might want to consider some brief bits of "good news" posts for your followers. Like Boris Johnson being deposed...

Await Sunday's talk eagerly 😊 Your words are, as always, Dr Tess, a balm for us troubled souls. As I've said before, living in Italy as an unjabbed has been truly awful and has worn me down. I try to be positive and read uplifting stories each day, but it's hard. There are many who are now waking up and saying no more jabs, but I feel there are many who are simply in total denial. They cannot believe that their government would have done this to them. Today, in Italy, they announced that they are preparing the next Bill of Law to force all sanitary workers/Doctors etc to have the FOURTH jab. I hope and pray that they all refuse. This is sheer madness. But as I read elsewhere today, Italy has the most easily corruptible politicians and so I'm sure Pfizer knew this when they made Italy their number one experimental camp in Europe. Please take a look at Professor Mark Crispin Miller's substack. He does a weekly compilation of sudden deaths worldwide. Italy has to have a page of its own because there are so many. I'm so utterly sad.

I'm in Canada and we're getting a similar situation here. The 'health' Minister has decreed we're only ok if we are 'up-to-date' with a shot every 9 months. So I'm about 4 shots behind and won't ever get one. The old saying 'it's always darkest before the dawn' comes to mind. Certainly planning for where and how to wait this out but it's wonderful knowing I'm not the only one standing firm. I live with my daughter's family, all injected and who will likely stand in line for boosters this fall despite all of us getting covid a few weeks ago. I had 1½ days of flu-like illness and they weren't any better off for their shots. I'm finally able to see their decisions and consequences as out of my control. I've tried for over 2 years to help them see the reality. Sad but no longer my problem. Love them but you can't be responsible for those who refuse to question what's going on.

I've been following the situation in Canada for a while and it sounds just dreadful. Interesting that Canada and New Zealand have gone utterly mad. (Trudea and Ardern - hhm wonder what they have in common 😲) I do feel for you though - can't be easy being the only sensible one in your family. Luckily all my family (except one son) have not been jabbed. I really appreciated your wise words about how it is out of your control - very wise words indeed. 🙏 I live in a constant state of bewilderment to be honest and just cannot comprehend what has happened to people. I don't have any unjabbed friends ( they all fell for it), and I feel that is HAS changed the relationships with them. I'm very cautious about what I say now and there's always this big elephant in the room. But I don't care anymore - I refuse to take part in this disgusting experiment. BTW - one of the Doctors I most admire is Dr Byram Bridle - your amazing heroic Canadian Doctor. ❣

You're a great human being Dr. Lawrie. Being able to listen to you and follow you over the past couple of years gave me the courage to stay the course and stay vaccine free at a time when others followed the Pied Piper. God Bless.

It does wear on the mind after a while...my thoughts constantly turn to: "has the whole world gone blind/mad"?

Or: "Are people this easily corrupted by money, power, & control"?

Thanks for this - when I wrote this, I was feeling like that for sure:

Thanks for the link Sucka. Paid it forward to my kiddo.

I feel better already. 😘

It's sunny and warm so I will go out in the post noon-day sun for some natural (😉) Vitamin D and try to get a handle on the mowing and trimming before more dark clouds roll in.

Why? Because someone needs to...
