The Burghley Nef. Materials are a nautilus shell with parcel-gilt silver mounts, raised, chased, engraved and cast, and pearls. 1527-1528  

This nef, which here represents a cog, was used as a salt cellar and placed representatively on the table in front of an important guest to honour his/her presence.

But HSMTMTS removing Kourtney from the “female protagonist best friend” label to give her solos, a great plot and screen time was the the best choice ever made. The show improved a lot on Season 3 because of it and how they switched the dynamics to make it equal for the ladies and you cannot change my mind on that.

#i liked nini but her leaving making way for kourtney and other characters was the best decision ever #hsmtmts #hsmtmts s4 #hsmtmts season 4 #high school musical the musical the series #gina allowed to have the center stage #kourtney’s anxiety story line and iconic behavior #ashlyn’s discovery and her story line with maddox iconic #like amazing #ashlyn caswell #kourtney greene #gina porter #text post

Meditation really is such a huge game changer when it comes to mental health and self improvement.

Yet so many people misunderstand it, or just don't want to try it bc they think it will be boring.

Was using your imagination as a child boring? Meditation is as boring or exciting as you make it.

Many people don't know where to start, or claim they just "don't have the time," but we make time for that which is important to us.

Do you smoke cigarettes or weed?

Even just 5 minutes a day, hell, a week, can cause such a massive change in your perspective of life.

Taking the time to slow down, breathe, and sort through your brain, in a world that is so "GO GO GO," all the time, is so crucial to keeping a clear head.

Getting in touch with ourselves, who we really are, our desires and fears, in a world filled with overstimulation and escapism has never been more important.

If you are curious, or would like to get started, or even just try it out to see "what's up," I highly encourage snooping through the "guided meditation" section of youtube.

Start off small, 5 minute, 10 minute, whatever feels right to you. What videos call to you? What seems interesting to try?

(I can send you a playlist of some of my favorites if you like!)

If you are serious about bettering yourself, meditation is a GREAT and FREE way to start!

I have learned so much about myself just through 5-10 minute daily guided sessions.

I took a break but just got back into it again and I already feel so much better.

When I first started, I was in a very very low place. Each meditation I did would leave me crying and shaking, not because I was sad, but because I was purging trauma trapped in my body.

Mediation helped me learn to regulate my emotions, feel them, and allow them to pass, instead of getting trapped in them. It has given me so much clarity about myself and the world around me. It's truly one of the best things I may have ever done for myself.

It has helped me build confidence, self assurance, helped me let go of things that desperately needed to be released, helped me connect with myself and my spirit guides, taught me patience (still working on that one lol) and so so much fucking more.

It has brought me feelings of true peace, which I had not experienced before. I am not so quick to be angered or triggered, I think much more logically and am less trapped in my emotions. It's actually kind of crazy how much my brain has changed in the last 3 years from meditation. If you knew me irl, you know I used to be VERY emotional, suicidal, prone to self harm tendencies. That's not who i am anymore, and a big chunk of that is due to meditation.

I respond more frequently, not from a place of trauma, but from a place of understanding and kindness. Coming from someone who's whole personality was nothing but trauma responses....I am forever grateful to myself for deciding to begin this journey.

Meditation is one of the most powerful forms of self care I have ever encountered. It is long lasting, unlike face masks and bubble baths.

Some of the most profound meds I have done are for emotional release, and I cannot recommend this more for people with trauma of any kind. Let that shit out of your body, instead of keeping it trapped and poisoning your spirit. (Only if you feel ready)

If you can learn to control your emotions, you can truly do anything.

Do you Meditate?

What kinds of meditation are your favorite?

Do you have any favorite guided meditation channels on youtube?

If so, drop them shits in the comments!

Hello from Manhattan--Kansas, that is! I'm on my way to Missouri again to do some teaching, exploring, and visiting my family. I spent all week driving and was set to arrive last night. But I woke up yesterday morning with a mild cold (oh no!) and so I extended my stay at the hotel a couple of nights to let it run its course since this is NOT the sort of gift I want to give my family. Thankfully, it's my absolute favorite hotel on the entire route, the Best Western in Manhattan, so if I was going to be grounded anywhere for a couple of days en route this would be it.

On the bright side, I did manage to have a good (outdoor) meeting with the educational director at the Flint Hills Discovery Center, which I recommend visiting if you're ever in the area and want to learn about the native tallgrass prairies of this region. We're putting together some plans for me to do some teaching during my seasonal peregrinations, and a book signing next year when The Everyday Naturalist is out. I'm very excited about this collaboration, because this is a first-rate educational facility and I love everything they're doing there.

Unless this virus decides to take a turn for the worse tonight--which it shouldn't--I'll be on my way tomorrow morning, with a detour over to Konza Prairie for a nice ramble. I've been stuck in the car and indoors way too much this week, and while I got to do a too-short but pleasant jaunt along the Chief Standing Bear Trail Thursday afternoon on my way to Manhattan, I've really been looking forward to my prairie time.

"T-Plus 30" by Aviation Artist Mark Waki

The Space Shuttle Discovery completes its roll to heading and begins its pitchover maneuver about 30 seconds after liftoff from Pad B of Kennedy Space Center's Launch Complex 39.

Artists Note: It's actually T-Plus 23, but T-Plus 30 was decided on for the painting's title. Discovery is about 5,000 feet AGL, has completed 179 degrees of roll to heading and is pitched over about 20 degrees. The vehicle is gaining altitude at 500 feet per second while accelerating at 1.8g
