Amphetamine: The Gateway Cycle Part 2

"Free Flow" is a concept from the the Oriental Cosmological perspective.  "Free flow" is the feeling of life in harmony with the elements. When free flow meets the stress of resistance there is a disruption of the flow of Qi. As these blocks and shocks become reinforced throughout life, these disruptions become organic blockages, memories held deep within the body-mind and by late teens it’s a slow, possibly sluggish experience of energy. Now opens the door of potentiality to the typical “gateway” cycle for illicit substance use.  In part 1, we looked at the role of Cannabis.  In part 2 we advance the journey into Amphetamine Type Substances (ATS)

The following video is by Jost Sauer, it is entitled, "Mission with Drugs Part 1".


The following article is by me, and is largely transcribed from notes taken from one of Josts seminars.

“An Elemental Perspective of Drug Use, Repair and Recovery” 

Amphetamine Type Substances (ATS) 

Yang, speed, coke, ice, meth, crystal, shabu

The Law of Homeostasis says, “I want Liver Yang”, as the body-mind is programmed to correct imbalances. Next drug of choice will very likely be ATS, which push through the obstructions and correct the imbalances immediately. 

Earth Stimulates the spleen, giving immediate focus with mental clarity and fluid consistency of thought, decreases appetite. 

Metal Lungs, the spontaneous energy of living in the “now”, controlling destiny, Godlike. 

Water Kidney, heroic quality, very high sex drive, personal strength and will power 

Wood Liver, increased happiness, effortless action with patience. 

Fire Heart, joyful and excited about purpose  

Every action has a reaction, ATS induced free flow is a corrupt correction which depletes Spleen, blood and Yin. A life giving and grounding deficiency, a very sad, difficult and tough experience. Symptomatology includes scattered thought process’s, long periods of blankness, paranoia with a persistent feeling of someone watching/following you, neither earthed nor centred. No destiny, no control and feelings of heavy sadness and grief. Weakened willpower coupled with sexual dysfunction, (particularly with cocaine). Extremely angry, possibly violent emotional outbursts with a rigid aching body. The anxiety of a chronically unsettled mind, confusion and possibly extreme and life threatening depression.
