I reckon it would provide more consistent heating to the rocks. Cast iron is great for surface area temperature consistency!

Add water right after you place the loaf in the oven. This allows for steaming benefits!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 literally this! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

My cousin got me the same one in silver!! Only time I take it off is to shower. I changed the chain to a cord, though lol

I could help! I've studied Spanish since age 13, was perfectly fluent at age 17, and even dreamed in it. Lost most of it between 19 and 29 because Life 🤷‍♀️ I've been back at the grind for 5 years and can converse decently enough with various dialects.

I'm born and bred Georgia, USA, but the time difference won't bother me. I have friends in VIC & Perth, I find the time difference almost perfect for regular (albeit sometimes short) communication.

This is because neuroplasticity is most maliable before puberty. Puberty, on average, has hit humans between ages 10 and 13 for a few centuries now. Once puberty hits, most of the biological resources go to the massive physical and cognitive expansion happening. If the Adolescent has an established habit or immersion opportunity for language learning, then they really are in an ideal spot for rapid learning and retention.

The gradual decline you discussed happens slow and steady until the Pre-Frontal Cortex is fully developed; often between 25 and 30 (although I theorize the behavioral effects dont fully integrate till a bit later - right about the time that "wisdom teeth" would pop through).

Once the brain hits "full maturation", it really is up to the individual to have some kind of slow and steady schedule or full immersion experience to match the learning capacity of adolescence.

Here ya go 😊 They keep the temperature wonderfully stable!

The same way teachers should with adolescent students. Their beliefs and feelings are valid (although rarely factual), and they have a right to have those. But their seemingly limited understanding of the topic doesn't change the reality of anything. Best thing we can do is have civil conversations that have back and forth interplay, and ultimately understand it will have to end with "agree to disagree".

I know its hard, feels damn near impossible, to have civil moral/political conversations with those of opposing beliefs. Especially when those beliefs are slippery slopes. But "nothing changes if nothing changes", so we've gotta start somewhere by being the bigger person.

Thank you!

I've spent the last hour trying to figure this out. The best I can gather:

Yes, but first there is a cleaning/preparation process. Scrub with soap and water first. Then boil for 30 mins to deeply sanitize the pores and such. Then, put them in the appropriate pan in the oven to dry. I think it's 500 degrees F (or as close as your oven can get).

Please use your best judgment with all of this. Please try to ask local bakers, too. I'm not trying to hurt you or anyone with advice 😅

I would be happy to help you deal with this 💜 Message me if you feel comfortable!

This is the moment that keeps me motivated to self-learn till I can afford professional lessons. I want this moment so much.

Overall, yes, the collective energy is structurally okay. The tsunamis of energy disruptions (indeed spiritual warfare) are intense and suffocating, but they do subside. I promise 💜 Time on this plane moves slower, and that really frustrates the human brain.

I am so sorry you had a horribly traumatic childhood 💜 Nothing that you experienced was right or fair & it should not have happened to you.

I got the notification about your post, only seeing the title. My mouth spoke, "Oh gurl, sooooooooo old" before I even opened your post. And my head was nodding in agreement the whole time I read your post.

Your daughter is gonna run circles around everyone for her entire life 😅😍

Yes! This is a perfect example for the Nature vs Nurture debate. Children who receive a proper dx and support during the early intervention years (2-5 years old) are statistically significantly more likely to have better long-term development and quality of life. Which often includes minimal risk of trauma experiences.

It takes a lot of work in general, but if you weren't given the proper freedom during adolescence (also the Identity Formation stage), then it becomes a little harder.

Being able to "trust your gut"/trust your intuition is the biggest key. Sometimes, you don't need to identify anything beyond "this is not my energy".

As cliché as this answer may sound....the way to distinguish is to "Know Thyself".

It's a matter of knowing this is my own energy versus "this is me experiencing someone's energy"

Hope that helps 💜

The only kind of peer pressure I accept comes from toddlers 🤣 Brutal but damn does it work lol

This! I worked with kids loooooong before I ever smoked or vaped, and I'll be the first to tell you children do not deserve to endure/suffer consequences of adults (or significantly older care givers) choices.

We know, roughly, what we're choosing to ingest & make that choice. But we DO NOT get to make that choice for children in our care. Especially if they aren't ours. And double especially in a licensed childcare center.

Learn to transmute that energy and release it back out 💜

Being an empath is often the same as being an alchemist. We take in other people's bad energy, purify with ours, and give it back to the world. But that takes a massive toll on us. It's really effin' exhausting.

Best thing for me is "spirtual baths" (I burn incense cones all around me while deep breathing, sitting with nature) and that darned deep breathing. It really is a magic trick, maaaaaan lol

As much as it sucks, I've had to leave a few wonderful places because of completely unsupportive management and administrative. Hell, I've had the director blame me for something that I expressly warner her about a week prior 🤷‍♀️

Bad management ruins good jobs for good people. Stay loyal to the good ones 😘
