Yes! EFT seems legit. I watched a documentary about it and also heard a little about it on Nightingale Conant. I plan to use it here soon. I've been doing a lot of abundance meditations and falling asleep to prosperity positive affirmations. Yeah, girl...we are vibin.
And after watching a couple documentaries on LOA I've realized I've been far too attached to my income desires. So, like you're saying, I make more when I care less. I've been focusing too much on lack when I'm attached which is messing me up. Thanks for saying that.

I also have to say, good idea listening to Root Chakra music while you sleep. Anything you play as you nod off to sleep hypnotizes your subconscious mind. Good call.

Took a break to meditate on clearing negative energy for 18 minutes. I feel calm and sure.
Attachment 51979
Have had a total of 50 oz water and had a strong cup of green tea kombucha with a tablespoon of raw organic honey.
Vibration is really high and it feels quite nice. It's pretty dead for me and I'm at $10 an hr, but I'm un-phased by it. I feel fine.

Yeah, really good practice. Do you feel like it's keeping you well on cam?
The meditation, Exercise and EFT is helping. I do Ho'oponopono a little in the morning right before I meditate but I'm going to set a timer for 20 minutes and do it at night too. I heard with consistency its very powerful. I told myself I just need to stick to my hours and self care. I also need to stay in a happy bubble lol while I'm on cam like I'm on there but I'm not there sort of trying to be unattached. I just focus on hours I'm going to do and watching my mood by taking breaks when needed. I also adjusted the chat on my computer so I can't even see who comes in and out of my room looking makes my anxious. I create all these stories in my head when I can see who is in my room if its full and no one is tipping, going pvt or talking I'm like wtf why are they just staring then if its empty I'm like this sucks. I noticed when I dont look at who's there or not I make more and feel relaxed. Overly obsessing messes up my whole LOA work I did right before I logged on.

Re: Cammodels: Managing Stress & Self Care
^^That's a good strategy in your room. I have it set so that I can only see members who chat to me first. All the in and out recorded in chat just got me all flustered. Yeah, this does lower my anxiety levels.
I hear you on breaks. I have been taking 10 min every hr for 2 weeks now and I have reduced anger and frustration by soooooo much. Taking those breaks and listening to my body is a life saver.
I just did the Ho'oponopono and man, it really does chill me out. I haven't been doing it enough. I think I'll do it daily now too.

Re: Cammodels: Managing Stress & Self Care
Need this thread hard today. I'm aiming for a 10 hr day as yesterday, despite self care and keeping my vibe way up, I didn't even make goal.
Starting the day off with 7.5 hrs of decent sleep, 20 oz water, 20 min Ho'oponopono session, and positive attitude.
Intentions today are to eat clean, drink a total of 80 oz water, meditate, and keep vibe high all day. Will take meditation breaks often to stay well and calm.

Re: Cammodels: Managing Stress & Self Care
3 hrs into a 10 hr shift. I had to take a break to meditate and get groceries. I feel much better.
This 52 meditation session was a Ho'oponopono negative energy clearing session. I feel incredibly calm and positive.
Attachment 51980
Have eaten a small slice of pizza, had 3 Cuties, drank 40 oz water, and had a cup of green tea kombucha with a tablespoon of raw organic honey.
Vibe is way up and I'm ready for whatever is thrown my way.

Re: Cammodels: Managing Stress & Self Care
Yeah, dunno. 6.5 hrs and I said fuck it and got wine. I've had a glass. I'm on doing my hrs. I'll have another glass soon. I think this is appropriate self care LOL.
Cheers ladies.

I drink wine so much because of camming.
I woke up early to cam. I did 1 show with a regular and I could feel my body and mind were too tired for this shit. Logged off went back to bed until noon, then got up and got a massage. I really needed the massage and I think I need to get them more often. I always put them off until I just can't take it anymore.

I got a massage last night. It had been 3 months. It was heaven. Touch is super healing. It's my primary Love language. You had to have been in such a good mood afterwards. Where do you go?

Normally I get a $45 Swedish massage at a Thai Spa. They are hit or miss. I went on Sunday and was so disappointed. Today I went to a $120 medical massage place and they knew what was up! I’m sore, but she really got in there good! They tried to get me to buy a monthly membership, but with the ups and downs of camming I didn’t think it would be wise.

Re: Cammodels: Managing Stress & Self Care
^^Right. I hear that. I've been thinking about investing in a massage twice a month, but I haven't made enough for that yet. $45 sounds pretty standard. I have a friend that goes to Massage Envy and she says not everyone there is a the same level. Sometimes you get a great massage, and other times not so good.
Massage is such good self care. & a good massage could have you set for a while, right? How good do you feel during the week that you get it?

I feel good for the first week. If I could do weekly I would. The therapist I had yesterday suggested once a month. I read the reviews for my local Massage Envy and they are mixed.

Re: Cammodels: Managing Stress & Self Care
I need to lose 9 lbs. I realize why I'm not losing. My carb count has been very high; in an attempt to lose I'm following a keto diet for 4 weeks & only training indoor cycle aerobically.
This is the side by side count of a regular day eating & my ideal modified day keto.
Attachment 52003 Attachment 52004
EDIT: have to drop coffee in the morning and swap for green tea kombucha, have to drop veggie spaghetti, have to drop the banana I have in the evening, have to drop organic raw honey too.
But those are the only changes. I'm gonna really miss my coffee tho. I like green tea kombucha, but live for my yummy coffee in the AM.

Keto works wonders for some, I've seen some awesome results on an IF group I'm in. I have not tried, not sustainable for me. I go for moderation but most days turns into high carb. Loss was good but stalled. I have like 10 lbs to lose now to get rid of the overweight label but I'm not willing to take anything off, frustration doesn't do any good to me and I get frustrated if I have to limit anything. I plan to lose the last 10lbs with exercising, my lovely carbs will stay, lol. That being said, I'm going to east a slice of pizza so I can start IF for today ::) Good luck with keto. xo.

Re: Cammodels: Managing Stress & Self Care
^^I've been eating relatively low carb for a number of years (staying below 90g and some days 70g), but I haven't been training enough to really lose it. I IF as well. I'm not at all overweight. In fact, I'm 142 of mostly muscle and people say I look 130 lbs. It's because my legs have so much muscle. My BF% is relatively low.
I'm frustrated as my stomach has quite a bit of fat. While it looks relatively flat...it's still pretty flabby.
I'm willing to do Keto for a short period to lose and I'm also looking forward to the increase in energy.
I agree that moderation is key and I like carbs too haha. Pizza is a huge guilty pleasure. I'll cheat still haha.

Belly is the last to go and the most annoying. I am thick and love myself thick (went from grade 2 obesity) but the belly won't go completely unless I lose A LOT. I should get to 105 lbs for the belly to go completely but I want 127 lbs so I can keep my curves. So me and my belly will have to stay friends :))

Re: Cammodels: Managing Stress & Self Care
this is my super effing GO TO when I've been really bad with my diet...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRDmKd5G8m4
shreds the fat all over your body, only takes 20 mins, and i've been using it since I discovered it in 2014. my calves and abs are smokin when i follow this, but i only do it when i want to drop some weight...which i need to do now, but got a bum ankle from some technically difficult hiking. if you need to lose 9, you'll do it in 2 weeks with this! it's my fav at home workout that burns the fat. and you can keep enjoying life...and pizzzzzzaaaaa!

Thanks! I'll check it out and use it to supplement my Spinning sessions as I only go to the YMCA to spin 3 to 4 days a week. If this works I can SPIN 3 days and do this twice a week.

In an attempt to keep all Chakras open & mood balanced I did an hr long Zen Healing deep meditation session.
Dude, I feel fantastic.

Re: Cammodels: Managing Stress & Self Care
Fuck yes! Just finished a 45 min work out. I started yesterday with 30 mins and today went for 45. I stopped working out during the summer but now that I restarted I realize that I missed it. I feel so good and so energized after. I consider it part of self care as it helps immensely my mood and my anxiety. Happy to be back at it. Taking the day off so I can change my schedule, rest and relax in hopes that I won't be zombie tomorrow. Bubble bath, here I come.

Re: Cammodels: Managing Stress & Self Care
^^Hell yeah, fuck yeah! I love a really good workout too. Did you do some kind of HIIT training? 45 min is a real good chunk of time. I'm super happy after indoor cycle for 40 min.
I'm resting today too so I don't get burnt out. Good to hear you're taking your rest. It's been tough the last week.
Girl, a bubble bath sounds good. I haven't had one in a while and I bought some Epsom Salt and Coconut Oil bath. I think I'll follow your lead.

I'm doing some aerobic cardio, Leslie Sansone walk at home programs, for example today I did the 3 mile with weights included work out. It's the only that doesn't affect my spine, I can only do standing work outs and not too intense. It's a good one, I lost weight with it in the past and I bet I'll overcome the plateau I'm in right now, with this, although the main reason I restarted is my shitty mood.
Enjoy your bath, girl!

Re: Cammodels: Managing Stress & Self Care
^^Girl, I'm a Spinning instructor (almost 6 years teaching indoor cycle with 12 certifications in everything from Exercise Physiology and Mental Training to Heart Rate Guidelines and Aerobics) and I know exactly why it works for you. Lower aerobic training helps shed fat, control hunger, and lower cholesterol just to name a few. Big one is it gives you energy. Yup, good shit...good shit!!!
Thanks!

That's some good info, thanks. Yes, Leslie mentions in all of her videos that they are meant to energize you and not to get you exhausted. And now that you mentioned hunger, I realized that in the periods I do these work outs I am not tempted to eat as often as when I don't do them.
P.S: My bubble bath was heavenly! It been a few months since I had one too, I am always in a hurry to shower quickly and get on cam. I'll make sure to have one weekly from now on. For the next one I'll make sure to have some wine. I don't drink at all but seems fancy so why not :)))
