Last saturday I started my day with a 5k run and then got in the mood for a hike. Went up a 1200 steps staircase to the top of the Königstuhl and took this picture

And then I added 15km of hiking to that. Bad decision. I noticed that I got some pain in my hip after the stairway (it is called the heaven-stairway) but ignored it. At home I noticed that I have extreme pain. The next day it got worse. My sister who is a physiotherapist did some skype-diagnosis and it seems like I strained one of my adductors. I had to stop sports for the last few days and the pain has gotten less. Hopefully I will be able to go for runs starting next week!

Work has been going good. I had a rough time reducing my weed intake and getting a clear mind. The road was full with anxiety, self-doubt and other weird treats that I thought I have overcome a long time ago. I am feeling better right now, keeping the dark pushed back and master of my own mind. I hope I can keep that up :)

Changed my sleeping habit too. I go to sleep between 10-11pm and wake up between 5:30-6:30, work a few hours and head to work at 9. I also keep this up during the weekend. I feel better during the weekend if I have the sun hours to enjoy. I miss out on the crazy parties a night though. Need to find another way to socialize, it feels weird to adapt to this change socially. Who is up at 9am on a saturday and up for doing anything? The majority is not.

Very excited about this review by David Nichols one of the oldest psychedelics researchers in the field. It is a 80ish long review of everything we know about psychedelics. I got a meet him last summer at Breaking Convention in london but couldn't talk with him more than a shy "Hi". I felt like fan-boy meeting his rockstar.
