Episode 2.6 is up on YouTube today. Erin Alladin’s new e-book “Gentle Gardening: A Guide for Uncooperative Bodies” is transformative, specifically covering the issues of gardening with chronic fatigue and the other complex disabilities that can accompany it, and reframing gardening as an accessible and fun activity. Ariel talks to Erin in this episode about her journey with gardening to where she is now, the book, a bit about gardening on Turtle Island as a settler, and tackling the gardener’s mindset and impostor syndrome that may come with it.

My partner struggles daily with #pots_syndrome. She takes diphenhydramine (Benadryl) for her #gastroparesis, but that makes her BP jump. She has meds that can keep them down, but lately it seems like her BP is either spiking or tanking. It's gotten so bad that she can barely sit up in bed without having an emergency. Is there anyone who can recommend some non-chemical ways to help with POTS or GP?

I love this time of year but don't have a lot of energy right now. Specific ideas & references are hugely appreciated, I can come up with vagueness like "candle? tarot? spooky soundscapes?" but cognitive is hard with specifics 🍁🕯️
Every fvcking day for years...

Over it, hate it, need to find treatments or a cure or send me to the other side of this black hole. https://mastodon.social/@effinbirds/111086540086224697
