why you never need to get drunk or high again

I've never really been interested in trying weed, only slightly curious about psychedelics, and am turned off by alcohol for the last 4-5 months.

I've always been able to access these extremely high high's of feeling amazing, but it's coming from a place of authentically ME. I don't need a substance or compound to step in for me.

In fact, it's become a challenge for me: Do I ever need any of these things? Can't I just access these states whenever I want without needing a substance?

Lately, these things have grossed me out... Like I literally cringe when I see people doing them. It never used to be like this.

Why drink alcohol? "It's good for me socially!"

And while yes, I agree that usually it helps people loosen up — I see that as a challenge to free myself socially and loosen up without using alcohol.

Why smoke weed? "I helps calm me down and boosts my creativity."

Then my goal becomes to be as calm and creative as possible without using weed.

Why take psychedelics? "The insights! I got 2 years of growth during a weekend retreat!"

Okay then I'll find a way to do the same but without taking mushrooms...

When I was younger, I watched The Flash TV show with my grandma all the time. In it Barry Allen refuses to kill people because of personal morals. Because he doesn't kill, he must find other ways to handle tough enemies. One of his quotes is "There's always another way." I think of this often.

Yes, maybe alcohol is the easiest and quickest way to loosen up socially — But there's always another way. And my way will be more rewarding and it will be AUTHENTIC. I don't mind that it may be more difficult or untraditional.

Now I'm not anti-alcohol, anti-weed, or anti-psychedelics. They can help great things, but they just aren’t necessary (at all).

I've heard love stories that started with people meeting at a bar.

I've heard beautiful songs that were written while someone was high on weed.

I've heard life-changing breakthroughs that came to somebody on a mushroom trip.

But I am against these things in my own life. Because to me, my natural state is extremely valuable and preserving it is important to me.

And I'm making zero sacrifices.

It isn't difficult for me to not drink or smoke — Because I access extremely high-frequency states that come straight from the heart, from love.

Love calibrates at 500 on the Map of Consciousness.

Any substance-taking immediately calibrates below 200, regardless of the situation. Take a look:

If you're drinking, smoking, or going on a psychedelic trip, those reasons all stem from insecurity, desire, or lack.

Even if it doesn't seem like it, deep down this is where the root cause lies.

There's nothing wrong with feeling in a low-frequency state. Some people choose to drink or smoke to temporarily heighten their state but it never lasts long.

Instead, if you take the "There's always another way" route, you can permanently raise your REAL calibration and live a sustainable high-frequency life. (from this point, you are always living in the "high" that others seek from substances).

As humans we are extremely adaptable. If we dip below into low-frequency calibrations (below 200), we will rebound back into higher-frequency living. Substances keep us down even if we temporarily feel slightly better.

To me, it's never worth sacrificing my frequency.

To you, it may be okay once in a while — That's a personal choice.

But my body, my healing, and my mindset is extremely valuable to me. I cringe thinking about sacrificing my aware and unaltered mindset. I cringe thinking about dipping into low-frequency and physically tolling my body and needing to spend extra energy on recovery (that didn't need to happen in the first place)

"Oh just loosen up a bit! You can have these things once in a while!

I know I could. I'm extremely healthy and heal quickly. I'd be just fine — But I don't need to "loosen up"

There's no loosening up because I LOVE the state I'm in. I LOVE that I can access any high-frequency state that I desire — Using only my breath and my mind.

This is the "high" that I chase. And it comes from a high-calibrating place of love. And it's sustainable. And it's exponential growth (where substances halt).
