The power of positive expectations...

[pinkchrissysposts]

Affirmations are just facts

Seriously when someone tell you fact about themselves do you question them?,when you read some facts about certain things you instantly believe it. Did you heard anything impossible but believe it just because you saw it on Google or read somewhere?

That's exactly what you do when you affirming, "I get money everytime I sneeze", it becomes a fact about you,you should not and must not question.

When you affirm,affirm it and put your focus on making it a fact,affirm,affirm and affirm,don't put your focus on when and how,just affirm even if you don't believe it,be normal,fool your subconscious it doesn't have any eyes,if you are not putting the desires on pedestal your desires will show up in no time.

Something I personally learn is,when I affirm I used to affirm at first I was OK we'll let's hope it work,and at first it felt good but then by the time it's night I would be so stressed out for some reason,and that is when I experimented with affirmations and how I affirm.

I noticed my affirmations sound very weird not very natural to what I will tell someone,so I start making my affirmations more natural, and second my whole focus was on believing the affirmations rather then looking for signs or when and how,if any doubts arise I will tell myself "as long as I believe the affirmations than it ok,my subconcious doesn't have eyes dont worry".

So start taking your life seriously for once and affirm those affirmations as FACTS!

method · using placebos

there are many methods and techniques to use to help you manifest your desires. in this post, i want to talk about placebos, what they are, how you can use them to your advantage and why they work in the first place!

definition

in a medical context, a placebo usually depicts some sort of substance or treatment that appears to be real, but isn't. for example, patients are given pills that may look, smell and taste like their actual pills, but aren't. when patients take these pills and experience a positive result, the results cannot be attributed to the medicine (here, placebo) itself, so as a consequence, they have to be due to the patient's belief in the substance. this is called a placebo effect.

in the context of manifestation, a placebo equals a self-determined meaning that is attached to an act or an object of your choice. using a placebo in order to manifest simply means that you get to decide which meaning you want to assign to a certain activity.

examples

here are placebos that people use when manifesting:

affirming all day makes you manifest faster.

drinking water helps you grow taller.

breathing air proves that your sp loves you.

and here are placebos that aren't necessarily viewed as placebos but as "logical consequences" of your reality:

learning 3 hours a day makes you smarter.

eating sweet snacks harms your health.

earning money is exhausting and tiring.

functioning

technically speaking, everything is a placebo as everything is a result of BELIEF. due to the law of assumption, everything that HAS happened, that IS currently happening and that WILL happen can be traced back to YOUR beliefs. your belief system creates your world. therefore, you have always assigned your OWN meaning and outcome to the contents of your reality. moreover, nothing in your world has its own original definition or purpose. all things are definitely defined by you.

conditioning

some placebos simplify manifesting for you whereas some only condition your desires. conditioning, in this case, means that you believe you have to do a certain act first before your desire can even manifest. these conditions can either be mental (for example, believing you have to think positively all the time in order to manifest your desire) or physical (for example, believing you have to work out in order to manifest your desired body).

applying

after all, using a placebo is just an unconventional manner to ascribe a way of functioning to a specific event. they exist to for you to come up with your own manifestation rules and regulations that shall ease the process. remember, YOU make the rules and only YOUR beliefs create!

with love, ella.

The placebo effect is wild. Taking a sugar pill with no active medical ingredients can somehow trigger a psychedelic reaction in some people, if that's what they're expecting. Even more incredibly, placebos can work when people aren't being deceived too – when they know what they're taking isn't medication. In a new study, psychologists show this strange phenomenon can be leveraged as a simple way to reduce stress, at least in the short term for moderate levels of distress.

The placebo effect is very real. But how and why it happens has mostly remained a mystery.

However, new research may shed light on what exactly is happening in our brains when just the expectation of pain relief is sufficient for people to feel better, even when the pill or treatment they’re taking has no therapeutic value.

It may even lead to new treatment options.

In studies on laboratory mice, researchers at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine discovered a pain control pathway that links the front of the brain, through the middle region of the brainstem, to the cerebellum in the back of the brain.

They then showed that certain parts of this pathway are activided in mice when they anticipate pain relief.

“Our results do open the possibility of activating this pathway through other therapeutic means, such as drugs or neurostimulation methods to treat pain,” says lead researcher Greg Scherrer, PharmD, associate professor in the UNC Department of Cell Biology and Physiology, who conducted the study along with colleagues at Stanford, the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, and the Allen Institute for Brain Science.

The research, recently published in the journal Nature, provides a new framework for investigating the brain pathways underlying other mind-body interactions beyond the ones involved in pain.

“We all know we need better ways to treat chronic pain, particularly treatments without harmful side effects and addictive properties,” Scherrer said. “We think our findings open the door to targeting this novel neural pain pathway to treat people in a different but potentially more effective way.” (Read more at link)

If it’s actually more effective than opioids I’m all for it. More pain treatment options, the better.

more doctor/curator pleeeaaaase? xo @hardly-an-escape

Far be it from me to deny anyone of more of these two sweet little whores... (I really really like them and will be back to their unhinged shenanigans after the Bang). More under the cut in the middle because NSFW.

Hob is shocked they make it past the entryway after the door to his flat closes behind them. 

But, let's be clear, the only reason they do is because Dream sees the tapestry that hangs in the library that opens to the left of the foyer.

The room has no windows, bookshelves from floor to high ceilings on all vertical surfaces except for the rectangle of glass that encases the textile art in a climate-controlled space. 

“My God, Hob,” Dream is walking towards it like he is being pulled in by a tractor beam on some spaceship, floating and not of his own volition. “Is this real?”

He comes up behind Dream and wraps his arms around the curator. “Aye,” he rests his chin on a black-clad shoulder, “family heirloom, late 14th century. The story is that one of my ancestors learned tapestry weaving in Paris and brought it back to Kent, taught her children, and their children. Gadling-made work supposedly hung in most castles in southern Britain by the mid-15th century. But this one was kept by the family. Why this particular tapestry over others is lost to time.”

A giant white horse rears up across the silken surface, narrowly avoiding the wolves that attack and weave around its legs. In the forest other beasts watch: owls, foxes, deer, squirrels, songbirds. It is very clearly not a unicorn, which is fascinating because it loses the religious symbolism typical of the period. The sun is setting in the background, making the leaves glow with a burnished copper color. 

“It is exquisite,” Dream whispers, leaning back into Hob. “And explains your preference for the Middle Ages.”

“Got it in one,” Hob chuckles. He pushes his hands up the front of Dream's shirt, presses his palms to the flat of his abdomen and digs his fingertips into the trail of dark hair that runs down the center.

Dream sways into it, going pliant in Hob's embrace. “So what's your desired order of operations, doctor? Far be it from me to choose a schedule that might endanger the lives of others by leaving you short on sleep.” He grabs one of Hob's hands and slides it down into his pants, where his cock is sticky and half-hard already. “Also, I think I have a Christmas present I might request of you.” He presses his arse into Hob's groin with a rolling motion, arching his back and moaning obscenely loud when Hob's fingers find the frenum piercing.

Fucking hell this man is such a perfect whore.

“Oh?” Hob murmurs, far more focused on cataloging every little sound and twitch that different tugs and twists of the piercing bring about. Dream is rock hard again within seconds, practically writhing against him, yet he is also the one stringing sentences together.

“Oh yes,” he rocks forward into Hob's hand then back into his crotch. “I want to ride your face until I come with your tongue buried in my arse, then turn around and ride your cock until I come again.”

Hob shivers and groans and uses his free hand to open Dream's fly so he has the space to fondle his bollocks. “You want that before or after I put on my leathers and ride you?” 

Dream cries out again, a generous spurt of precum ending up on Hob's hand when he tugs and twists the piercing; apparently a touch of pain isn't bad for this little dove. “Oh, after. Then I'll be on your face longer, waiting for my dick to get back into the game.”

“Mmm, then you'll be riding me even longer after that, just like you want, you insatiable slut.” Hob sucks on the side of his neck, digs his teeth in to bring a bruise to bloom. Dream moans and bucks with the hardest presses of teeth. “Like some pain with your pleasure, dove?”

“Only in small doses.” His long arms swing up and behind Hob's head, tugging his mouth back to his neck. “You?”

Hob gets distracted by expanding the hickey so it flows down to the top of Dream's shoulder. “Not my jam, but I am more than happy to do just about anything that turns my partner on.”

Dream laughs, breathless and happy-sounding, “No wonder you get typecast as a service top.”

Frustrated with the obstacle, Hob pulls Dream's shirt off, flings it somewhere to the side, then continues to paint the skin of his shoulder red and purple with his teeth. “And does everyone assume you're the twinky bottom?” He strokes Dream's cock slowly and grinds his own arousal into that pert little arse.

A gasp interrupts Dream's continued laughing as he grinds back, so much harder than before. “I love surprising people. Upending their expectations. Watching them lose their minds as I expertly take them apart, piece by piece.”

“Expertly?” He can't help but ask.

“What do they say, ten thousand hours to master a skill?” Dream sounds like such a smug little shit and Hob is beyond feral about it.

He moves one hand up to play with the hair on Dream’s chest, to tweak a nipple and hear that lovely little gasp again. “And how much practice have you had, sweet thing?”

“You sure you want the honest answer to that?” He can hear Dream's raised eyebrow.

“Go ahead. Shock me.”

“I stopped counting at one hundred seventy nine different partners.” 

Hob freezes, a whine oozing out through his teeth. Bloody fuck. 

“Hob?”

“Yeah, give me a sec. If I don't dissociate for a minute I am gonna come in my pants because Christ that is hot. Also explains a lot. My God, how many of those were multiples at once?”

Dream's laugh this time is a deep, sensuous rumble. “Not as many as you might think. And I’ve only been gang banged once.” He turns in Hob's arms, dislodging Hob's hand from his prick and leaning in to speak against Hob's lips, “But that was a long time ago. Now I am more interested in exploring how many different sensations I can have with one partner.”

“Oh, so you plan on going full fluid bond with me, do you?”

The blush on Dream’s face is a gorgeous, deep rose red. “I…” he looks down and away for only a moment and then holds his chin up high, proud and perfect, “yes.”
