OP is Zen
Recently I've experienced some very intense times, personally, professionally and physically.
I just want you all to know that I am very grateful for this forum. I appreciate everyone who comes on here and contributes. In a somewhat stressful, topsy turvy world, this forum is a god send.
Oil Pulling should be enjoyed by all, on a daily basis. It's elemental. A real joy. It's zen. Why should I get misty eyed over something so benign? Because when life around you is spinning out of control, OP can center you and at the same time offer you benefits that are so simple, so basic.
I guess I'm waxing philosophical on the mental benefits derived by this therapy. We've talked endlessly about the physical benefits, but have we really discussed the psychological?
When you OP, how do you feel? I know I feel relaxed, focused, happy. Could it be the infusion of the essential fatty acids into my system? Likely. It could also be the focus of the therapy. It's my time, can't speak, feeling that sensation in my mouth....is it thick now? Now it's thin? I am aware of it the whole time.
I do not mean to come off cheesy......but after OPing for 2 years, I feel that the physical aspects are not the only benefits we are experiencing.
Thanks for listening. This forum is an oasis. The people that visit it are blessed.
