Dark Matter eLiquid

Enjoy the wonderful flavor of our latest VapeSafe eLiquid - Dark Matter.

Dark Matter tastes like German chocolate cake. For those of you who have not had the fortunate to try a piece German chocolate cake recently, this is a great way to experience the flavor without getting any of the calories. German chocolate cake is a layered cake filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. Traditionally sweet baking chocolate is used for the chocolate flavor in the actual cake. The robust filling and topping is a caramel made with egg yolks and evaporated milk. Once the caramel is cooked, coconut and pecans are stirred into the mixture. Finally, rich chocolate frosting is spread around the sides of the cake to hold in the filling.

Dark Matter eLiquid by VapeSafe captures the essence of German chocolate cake. Dark Matter eLiquid delivers plumes of vapor and rich chocolatey flavor that you'll want to enjoy again and again. Try Dark Matter today!

Description

Don't Let Life Pass You By

Feel like you're always rushing but never catching up? Are you doing more, but enjoying it less? The frantic pace and pressure of modern life can take a serious toll on your happiness and your health, but there is a way to step off the treadmill without giving up your career or activities. The answer lies not in sacrificing your work productivity or your lifestyle but rather in changing your attitude. By using the simple exercises in this book to slow down your thoughts and focus on the present moment, you can actually achieve greater productivity and creativity—all while maintaining a calmer, healthier state of mind.

This is the book for you if you've ever had the urge to tell off your boss, quit your job, hurl your Palm Pilot into the trash, and move to a farm. Written by bestselling stress consultant and psychotherapist Dr. Richard Carlson Don't Sweat the Small Stuff, it advocates the cultivation of a personal mindfulness and "thought navigation" to foster a sense of mental calmness and increased creativity and productivity.

With sage tips reminiscent of those in Jon Kabat-Zinn's Wherever You Go, There You Are, Carlson recommends a "Psychology of Mind" approach that involves being fully present in each situation and not letting the attitudes of others ruin your day. This way, your thoughts become more organized--wiser, if you will--and you get more work done without even trying. This time management trick is what he says will improve your life--not a cell phone or an electronic scheduler or a personal assistant. Carlson's advice can be taken to heart, as he's used these techniques to improve his own life. While he was working on his Ph.D., he rose at 4 a.m. and "gulped down ten or fifteen cups of coffee" each day just to get all his work done, and would bristle if family emergencies took him away from his studying.

Not only does Carlson promise to help boost one's productivity, but he says that relationships and intimacy will improve as well. He maintains that disagreements--at home or at work--are less likely to blow up into full-fledged arguments if you're being calm and levelheaded. "A mind operating at the speed of life can see things as they really are," he writes. "Slowing down gives you needed perspective during times of transition and stress. When you operate at the speed of life and your child desires privacy, you'll probably remember that almost all teenagers go through phases of wanting space from their parents....Rather than take it personally, you'll be able to see the bigger picture. If your mind is moving too quickly, events as well as your own thoughts about events become much larger than they really are."

For anyone fed up with life's chaos, Slowing Down to the Speed of Life should prove to be an immensely helpful mental health manual. --Erica Jorgensen

Summary: "Slowing Down to the Speed of Life: How To Create A More Peaceful, Simpler Life From the Inside Out"

This book was a gift from my boss to all of us in
our software development group, back in 2001. As
a person who suffers from fairly pronounced A.D.D.,
I found the insights in the book to be absolutely
life-changing. It's not a self-help book, full of
abstract theories and obscure philosophies. Rather,
it shows us how to recognize the two main ways our
mind works for us and, occasionally (often, for me),
how one of the two ways can work against us, if we
let it. Recognition leads to the ability to master
the choice of which mode to "operate in", with great
and immediate results.

It's an easy read, doesn't try to "sell" you anything,
and begins producing rewards from the moment you open
it. I re-read "Slowing Down to the Speed of Life"
every two years or so.

I highly recommend this wonderful book!

Summary: "Rehashed Buddhism"

Rehashed Buddhist philosophy presented as a new arm of psychology. It's not that the advice isn't truthful, there's just no practicality in the book. No technique, no exercises to achieving a state of presence. My summary:

Every chapter is exactly the same...

- Statement: [a certain situation] will be better if you just "slow down to the speed of life"
- Examples of people that court stress messing up [said situation]
- Examples of people that take it easy thriving [in said situation]

That's basically it. Chapter after chapter encouraging you to slow down and enjoy life. Unfortunately, it never suggests how one can actually make that happen. The book basically expects Joe Stress to achieve a zen-like state by just willing it. It encourages you to put decisions "on the back burner" so that your creative mind has a chance to work - that's little help to people who face real world pressures. I don't see how the authors expect someone confronting a deadline to basically ignore their problems in the expectation that one morning in the shower the perfect solution will pop into their heads.

It's also very repetitive and will re-use their signature phrases ("slowing down to the speed of life") until they have no impact. The book showed a lot of promise in the first chapters, it just never delivered.

Summary: "A MUST READ !!!"

I read this book during a stressful semester of college while I was also running my own business. After I started reading this book my stress levels dropped 80% in just a day...and stayed that way. There's some REALLY great advice in this book about how to think in such a way that you limit stress and enjoy more of life. An AWESOME book!!
