Break from Subs starts tomorrow about noon. Lasts until late afternoon Sunday.
Actually, it looks like my break will go until Monday.
I have been finding myself letting breaks happen when they naturally fit my schedule rather than being something regimented like 5 on, 2 off or something
I have started using a slant board for doing bodyweight squats.
This seems to be a gamechanger for knee rehab.

soon you’ll be doing full nordics, grasshoppa.
having healthy knees is an example for the image cycling. imagine yourself doing the activity that represents healthy knees. then when you get the healthy knees I guess you just take it off the list because wanting healthy knees when you have healthy knees is reinforcing the opposite and that’s not what we want.

Last spin of Dragon Reborn ST4 before later afternoon on Monday.
In the midst of my break. Seeing many family members I do not see often. Weird conversations. Awkwardness. Enjoyment, too.

More than 5 months of Dragon Reborn.
About a month of Survival Instinct.
Dragon Reborn and Paragon Ultimas since April 29.
Watched the season 5 premiere of Rick and Morty on Adult Swim.
Back from my break with 2 ultrasonics and 3 silent tracks playing on a loop from mp3 player.
Will see if I can fit in both DR Ultima and Paragon Ultima tonight.
I am not sure yet if it, or any subliminal or combination of subliminals can function this way, but my ideal imagining of the stack that I am running now, consisting of Dragon Reborn and Survival Instinct, is of tearing things down to absolute foundations and building a sustainable base to work from.
I spent time with relatives I rarely see this past weekend.
I might see my older sister every 1.5 to 2 years. I really dislike being around her and there is always conflict.
I felt like things went smoother this time around and she even seemed to want to hang out and talk to me, which normally she does not seem to want to do and I avoid mostly, too.
The conversation was still mostly superficial as it usually is, but it was not as unpleasant as usual.

Got together with a friend today and he talked about his daughter who just finished her first year of college, is depressed, lacks motivation and curiousity while being intelligent and doing well enough in school, at least so far.
Psychotherapy and anti-depressants were discussed. The mother, who my friend is separated from thinks anti-depressants should suffice. The mother has had issues with depression and a nearly complete lack of energy. My friend separated from her after 5 years of no sex at all. She seems disinterested in solving her own issues which have persisted since she was in college.
I mentioned both meditation and subliminals, but my friend only seemed interested in the possibilities for meditation. He is wary of both anti depressants and psychotherapy.
It feels a bit like neither she, nor her parents are really going to be diligent enough to shift her depression in any meaningful way.

Slept really late today and did not run Ultimas upon waking.
What Survival Instincts freq curve looks like from where I am listening!
