**No Shame:

I Changed my Entertainment Diet 4 Years Ago**

And you won´t believe what happened…

Dear Grown Minds, fuck clipped headlines, let’s go face-first into the weed, shameless with Fernando Lazcano Tortosa.

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT

Not every aspect of life can be altered with entertainment or drugs, but…. what if I tell you that some behaviours do alter these aspects? This article doesn´t specifically talk about weed consequences itself. But it somehow belongs to this space, we do consume Cannabis while Entertaining, and the other way around, so… Thanks for reading my most private publications and disrupting theories.

Never liked SCI-FI, always loved real stories, I used to say “emotionally rich” or with “something to teach”.

Grew up playing Counter-Strike, Medal of Honour, listening to Easy-E, Dr. Dre and Techno, loads of Techno, watching Jason Statham and such…

Result:

-9 schools in 6 years

-Drug abuse 10 years long (8years clean now)

• All consequences related

I am not saying it will develop to this point with every teenager, but boy, chances are high, like the meme from Pac-Man and Techno Raves says….

Truth is, as a kid, feeling good was a lot of violence, to solve problems quick, drugs, sex abuse, or deviated/unhealthy behaviours in general terms, Hollywood shit feels good says Doechi. This hasn’t gone any better on the entertaining scene.

I could start from 007 to Narcos, all in between.

Same with the music, Rap and Reggae from 1980 to 2000 could be profound and carry philosophical and social messages, this didn’t happen anymore. Now is drugs, bitches and dollar staples….

Maybe my senses were more alert the first time I watched something SCI-FI, it was Daredevil, 4 years ago…

There is a scene when he fights a huge slaughtery against the chinese heroin dealers. I had to close the TV and I couldn’t sleep.

Something in me changed forever.

I couldn’t anymore, something in my stomach made me change my “entertaining diet” completely, from understanding what health is, what entertaining is, what does calm actually brings….

But hey…. I was looking for real storys since the beginning, then the unreal made me think about changing the unhealthy real ones I thought I had something to learn about…..

I though I knew enough to navigate life after so many based on real stories.

At the time there was a colleague always making “The Office” jokes… I never got a shit and he was always saying, from the office from the office….

hä? sounds funny, sounds healthy humor

I started watching the office… along with real stories: fraud, banking, and economy related films/docus/etc. Real stories with something to teach without violence, and so on.

after that came The Good Doctor, then Suits, and a bunch of tender stuff…

Deleted any unrespectful, drug related songs that I wouldn’t want my kids to listen in no language at any age with nobody, from my playlist.

I guess whatever lifestyle plus entertainment combinations could contradict my theory but, since I swapped my entertaining diet:

-My stomach feels better along the year on average

-My sleep is better along the year on average.

-Yes, I get less times sick on average.

-Me, my relationships and Family are better taken care of.

-On average less emotional triggers, almost none.

-Impulses and frustration to be shown, are a thing of the past.

-No tribe, pertinence, or groupal worries.

-Addiction thoughts don’t show up

-My attitude towards money did a 360* turn

-I care less about sports shows too

-Comedy and well-being, cannabis and economic info is all I want to consume since then.

Violence has many forms and all kind of consumers, if you enjoy pranks, fails or insect fights reels or consume any of the priorly mentioned content I don’t think we could exchange anything valuable for me in life. Although there might, the whole energy frame changes for me, sorry.

I am healthier, more positive, wealthier, the energy around is a complete better one. But wait for the best part:

In the end we are all small powerless families that only want the best for our kids, and that excludes any negative vibe.

I highly recommend it everybody since I realised.

We all want to somehow improve our lives in this community, so I thought it is worth sharing it.

Peace.

No Shame is here to strip that weight away. To remind you that using cannabis responsibly is not a crime against your dignity. It is a choice, a ritual, a piece of your truth. Like you are not going to worry for a joint here and there with all the evil stuff going on in the world, are you?

Sometimes seems like we need a neighbour to drink until vomit-phase after a grill next to you, to get to smoke a joint on your own yard and have nobody telling you shit because now you got a counter argument. Like wtf? this personally happened to me, the worst enemy for any culture is the stigma. And the lessons are hard to learn. Next week I will try to bring somehow, more lessons, the ones I learnt, maybe just to prevent.

That’s why I keep writing, because stigma dies only when we talk about it openly.

No shame. No apologies. Only clarity. –Fernando
