Long time no see! I felt called to blog again, so let's jump right into things...<br />
<br />
One of my top priorities entering 2020 was to read 200 self-development books, using a website that tracks the progress called https://www.goodreads.com. After about the twentieth book, I realized there was a concept that many of the authors kept mentioning, referred to as the Law of Attraction. Simply put, the Law of Attraction is the ability to attract into our lives whatever we are focusing on. Essentially the energy that you put out, is the energy manifested back into your reality.<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Your beliefs shape your thoughts</li>
<li>your thoughts shape your words </li>
<li>your words shape your actions </li>
<li>your actions shape your reality. </li>
</ul>
<br />
A few ways to raise your vibration are by consuming healthy foods, listening to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=hertz+frequency" target="_blank">Hertz frequencies</a>, getting sunshine, moving your body, listening to affirmations, essential oils, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAclBdj20ZU" target="_blank">tapping</a>, etc.<br />
<br />

On my quest to attract more happiness and abundance, I stumbled upon <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATnBZYM6I10" target="_blank">Abraham Hicks</a>. Her videos are super inspiring and continue to help shift my perception on life and to trust the process.<br />
<br />

<br />
I now wake up early and established a healthy sleep pattern, began praying and meditating every morning, started reading the New Testament and stopped watching porn to harness that sexual energy and convert it into creative energy.<br />
<br />
Lastly, the most recent massive shift in my life was a nudge from the Universe to transition away from drawing and begin painting again, using a technique that makes the canvas look like its marbleized. I played with epoxy resin for the first time today and can't wait to share this new work/energy with you in the next post. I feel like life is aligning at a rapid pace and I'm so grateful to be here.<br />

I no longer feel like I'm getting anything out of it, contradictory to when I first started this journey eight years ago. I want to thank everyone who helped me along the way, as I grew from the scared, closeted college kid I once was and into the person I am today. Thank you to all the people I've had the pleasure of connecting with and the abundant guidance over the years. I hope this blog acts as a safe haven to anyone who needs it.<br />
<br />
With that being said, you can still connect with me at <a href="https://www.jeremymannino.com/" target="_blank">https://www.jeremymannino.com </a><br />
<br />
Catch ya on the flip side.<br />

So as most of you probably know, after graduating college I worked as a Portrait Artist for three years. The ability to connect and collaborate with different people from around the world and share my gift with them was really rewarding. I would bring my supplies to Barnes and Noble and set up shop in the Starbucks cafe area for 5-6 hours at a time. Having the freedom to work wherever I wanted was so liberating, BUT I wasn't charging enough to make a living.</div>
<br />
I began working at Trader Joe's and decided to take a break from art, to refocus where I wanted to navigate my creative endeavors next. Overtime, I decided to pursue painting again and created 18 pieces in total, 10 of which are on display at a local yoga studio near the beach...and the remainder are hung in the reception area of a law firm.<br />
<br />
However; since the paintings aren't selling, I've decided to revert back to being a full-time Portrait Artist again. Woo! I'll have the ability to work in coffee shops/cafes like old times, people watch and chat with individuals who approach me. Plus the bookstore is right around the corner from my gym, making it very convenient to lift and than work.<br />
<br />
Speaking of the gym, about six weeks ago I was walking to the water fountains in-between sets and one of my friends from college was gleaming at me. Neither of us had any idea the other also attended the same gym...and now we workout together 2-3x a week! It seriously makes going to the gym so much more fun! Furthermore; I have a <u>massive</u> crush on one of the managers who works there. Much to my delight, he generally works out during the same time we're there and is a beautiful specimen to look at.<br />
<br />
As weird as this may sound, his presence alone has really motivated me to be in the gym 5x a week, to not only look at him...but to look more like him. haha He's about 6'3", golden tan, blonde, blue eyes, perfect smile, insane physique and super friendly. Basically he looks like a Greek god, which is what my best friend and I nicknamed him until I glanced at his name tag one day haha<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is a photo I took of him before he cut his hair</div>
<br />
He winked at me (again) today while saying hi in passing, but I stuttered something incoherent and broke eye contact because he makes me so nervous and starstruck. My goal is to talk to him more frequently and get comfortable in his presence, simply to make a new friend at the very least.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Anyways, check out my newly revamped <a href="https://www.jeremymannino.com/" target="_blank">website</a> and don't be shy to contact me if you're interested in a custom piece! I feel so hypocritical telling you not to be shy when I can't even talk to this random guy hahah Cheers to making this Summer the best one yet!<br />

<span style="font-family: , "blinkmacsystemfont" , "segoe ui" , "roboto" , "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">The Dark Night of the Soul. 30"x40" acrylic on canvas. </span></div>
<span style="border: 0px; font-family: , "blinkmacsystemfont" , "segoe ui" , "roboto" , "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><br /></span>
<span style="border: 0px; font-family: , "blinkmacsystemfont" , "segoe ui" , "roboto" , "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Life isnāt always bright and colorful, but we tend to glamorize and showcase that side of ourselves, especially on social media. The truth is, we all come face to face with obstacles and challenges, which force us to look inward and discover the light amidst the darkness. As Martin Luther King Jr once said, āOnly in the darkness can you see the stars.ā āØ </span><br />
<span style="border: 0px; font-family: , "blinkmacsystemfont" , "segoe ui" , "roboto" , "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><br /></span>

Dorothy is whisked out of Dust Bowl Kansas and embarks on her enlightenment, paved by the spiritually symbolic yellow brick road. Alice is led down a rabbit hole and presented with a series of doors, unaware of the lessons that lie behind the one specifically chosen for her. Neo is set out on a course to free himself and humanity. </span><br />

So whatās behind the door? Well lets find out together, shall weā¦šŖš®</span><br />

<span style="font-weight: normal;">Hello my beautiful people. </span></h3>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Thanks for stopping by. </span></h4>
<br />
Life is a beautiful experience and I'm grateful for everything it's blessed me with. I really want more from it though. Is that selfish? My job at Trader Joe's became so mundane, which led to a level of frustration I've never encountered before. So what does any normal person do when they want to change something? They start looking for ways to remove themselves from that situation. What do I do? Join a sugar daddy site...<br />
<br />
..and I KNOW I shouldn't have done it, because sugar makes me break out, but I'm trying to live a little!<br />
<br />
Back in August I joined Seeking Arrangement with the intentions of affording Photography/Entrepreneurial classes, healthier foods, high quality art supplies, more natural products, invest, etc. After meticulously expressing my reasoning for being on the site, the waiting game began. Fast-forward to December and I flew 3,000 miles away to meet a guy. I know you want every drop of details from this juicy ass story, but my reasoning for sharing this isn't to focus on that, it's what this experience taught me. Ew I feel like an adult.<br />
<br />
Longggg story short: I flew to Cali, met a well-traveled Physician, immediately realized the environment was not conducive to my growth and Ubered to the train station, before arriving back to the airport and eventually getting home.<br />
<br />

The experience acted as a mirror and I had ample time to do serious soul-searching. How do you do that? I asked myself/the Universe the same question and than listened for a response. I learned that you have to follow your dreams and make conscious steps towards achieving them, everyday. It's that simple. Joy vibrates on a super high frequency, and in order to hit the bullseye of abundance, pinpoint your passion. </div>

Immediatedly after unpacking, I went to the storage unit and retrieved the two-dozen canvases from my college days. Painting makes me feel free and my tenacious spirit is dedicated to becoming a pro at it. Next, I began listening to motivational audios around the clock and painted a sea turtle, giving birth to my Tropical Series!! It still makes me laugh that meeting a sugar daddy literally manifested this body of work. Check out my Etsy shop <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/JeremyManninoArt?ref=profile_shopname" target="_blank">Here</a>.<br />
<br />
The turtle is alone in an open sea, which is how I felt on that journey, but what the viewer doesn't know, is that the path leads to somewhere beautiful.<br />

As I was working on my fourth painting (the pineapple), I received a text that my coworker Logan passed in a car accident. She was a 20-year-old FAU student with the funniest sense of humor with the kindest soul. She looked JUST like Scarlett Johansson, which led to her nickname "SJ".<br />

I allowed myself to cry for the entire day, but harnessed that raw emotion into the pineapple painting, which holds a special place in my heart. Going through that experience taught me how fragile and unpredictable life is. Consequently; I quit my job, went on a roadtrip and turned 27 on Easter. </div>

Life is unraveling magically. I stopped watching porn after 13 years, attend the gym 6 days a week, meal-prep weekly, solely listen to motivational/informative audios and have a giant crush on a guy who works at my gym. Time feels like it slows down when I look at him. My best friend and I were talking about the psychology behind attraction, which led me to researching the Law of Attraction. It's a powerful law. </div>

My newest painting made me have an epiphany. Back in 2014-15, I received a private, hour-long reading from a Medium. In the session, <a href="https://www.savonnchampelle.com/" target="_blank">Savonn</a> confidently told me that I would be creating spiritual paintings one day. At the time I doubted him, but he was right. This is my newest painting: </div>

I don't doubt the spiritual world at all anymore. This diptych painting is still in it's early stages, but it depicts a bookshelf under a night sky. On the bookshelf are some of my favorite thangs. A Himalayan lamp, numerology/synchronicity, tea (with a lotus flower floating on the steam), essential oils, diffuser/aromatherapy, seashell, candle, potted succulent, sage smudge stick and an amethyst crystal. The sky is going to display a starry constellation. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So yeah, that leads me to where I am now: with a new perspective on life, a disciplined mind and an understanding that I can achieve greatness on my own.</div>

Ayurveda is magical. Although many of the powders (derived from plants, flowers and herbs) can be taken internally, I primarily apply them topically. I've honed my hair regimen thanks to the wonderful YouTuber by the name of <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/remz316" target="_blank">CurlyProverbz</a>. </div>

Her transformation inspired me to give Ayurveda a shot. Why not, right? My hair was limp, oily, lifeless and falling out, so I began my hair journey in June 2017 with oils. After months of doing over-night oil treatments, I no longer wanted to shampoo my hair everyday (to get the oil out). So I began applying insane amounts of conditioner to my hair and leaving it in several hours, before washing it out in the shower. For more info on the products I'm using, check out this <a href="http://www.lifeofkid.com/2018/01/hair-journey.html" target="_blank">post</a>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My hair DRANK that shit up and I was co-washing (conditioner only washing) nightly. I did that for like two or three months, until I could feel my hair becoming over-hydrated. Foreign to this, CurlyProvs mentioned a metaphor in one of her vids explaining it. Overly hydrated hair is like overcooked pasta, which becomes mushy. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now I'm craving pasta. ha</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When cooked right, it's bendable, doesn't snap and has buoyancy. Uncooked pasta (dry hair) is prone to breakage, literally snapping off due to a lack of moisture. That's what SO many people struggle with who bleach, dye and apply heat. For amazing product knowledge, peep Youtubers <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/BiancaReneeToday/videos" target="_blank">Bianca Renee</a> and mah gurl <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/CurlyPenny/videos" target="_blank">Curly Penny</a>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Anyways, once my hair started feeling mushy, I ceased the deep conditioner treatments and began applying hair masks, using Ayurvedic powders. There are so many...and that might just be a post in itself. Comment down below if you'd like to see pictures of all the powders I use to create my masks. To name just a few: Neem, Aloe Vera, Amla and Cassia. </div>

I buzzed my head the end of November, so this is 3.5 months of growth. I still have a <b>long</b> way to go, but cheers to this little victory!! Life is all about making yourself more confident, which naturally emulates a more loving aura. Seeing a guy with nice hair made me feel so envious, not knowing all along that its 100% obtainable. As far as hair is concerned, Ayurveda cures psoriasis, eczema, male pattern baldness, dandruff, itchy scalp, split ends, etc. The powders contain vital nutrients that our hair needs to grow strong and luxuriously, even stimulating new hair growth where follicles were once dormant. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Current Routine</b>:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I apply hair masks almost every night of the week, combining secret powders with cooled tea or water. Once blended into the right consistency, the paste is applied to the roots of your hair. I section my hair starting from the center, than work my way to one side, followed by the other. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The mask generally chills on my head anywhere from 2-4 hours. Once I'm in the shower, I let the water rinse it all out, before applying conditioner, which sits in for a few minutes. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After about five days my hair starts to look oily, so I'll create my typical mask, but add in a whole bunch of different oils as well. Olive, avocado, coconut, blackseed oil, etc. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once the shampoo is rinsed out, the process starts all over again. The longer my hair is able to go between shampooing, the better. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

My hair journey officially began in June 2017 when my scalp psoriasis and dandruff got out of control. I had crusty/flaky patches around my head that were completely inflamed, which burned when I tried to wash my hair. Not only did this lead to uncontrollable itching and excessive dandruff, but also heavy amounts of breakage, hair loss and limp, lifeless hair. To make matters worse, my hair was <u>extremely</u> oily and I had no sort of hair routine at the time, resorting solely to Selsun Blue. If you'd like to see before pictures of my hair and skin, check out this <a href="http://www.lifeofkid.com/2015/03/feeling-down.html" target="_blank">post</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Out of serious desperation, I jumped online and started reading/watching as many articles and testimonial videos on natural hair growth and a healthy scalp. For an abundant amount of natural haircare tips, check out this YouTube video from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sc-8HadeSE" target="_blank">holistichabit</a> (skip to 3:40).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This research led to my understanding of what shampoo and conditioner are meant for. My entire life I was just blindly shampooing every night...that was the extent of my haircare. Due to the severity of my condition at the time, I began doing (overnight) hot oil treatments everyday for a month straight. My DIY oil masks consisted of coconut, olive, grapeseed, sweet almond, shea, castor, avocado, jojoba, argan, hemp, neem, rosehip, blackseed, rosemary, lavender, tea tree and vitamin E oil. Rather than applying them one by one, I poured some of each into an empty applicator bottle and shook it up each night. Side note: place a towel over your pillowcase before going to bed, to soak up the excess concoction. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If you're just getting started and feel overwhelmed by the amount of oils I use, here are the ones I recommend getting first: castor, rosemary, vitamin E and coconut oil...however, the more the merrier in my opinion. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Each morning I washed the oil out with this art naturals shampoo and followed up with the conditioner. I believe this is the third box I've purchased. Prior to the first, my hair had never come in contact with conditioner. I know that might sound crazy, but I always assumed conditioner was for females...even though hair is hair. Thank God I came to my senses. </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After a month of this routine, my scalp had completely healed and I noticed the daily shampooing was now doing more harm, than good. Shampoo strips the natural oil from your hair, but because mine was so damaged, it was craving extra moisture and TLC. That's when I learned about daily cowashing, short for "conditioner-only washing", which leads me to where I am now...almost eight months later. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I now do overnight hot oil treatments every Monday and Friday night. Occasionally I mix it up from the extensive list above and simplify the mask, like this one for example. </div>

<span style="text-align: left;">Heat up the coconut oil (double-boiler method), add the other ingredients, massage into scalp and go to bed. Due to this schedule, I always shampoo my hair on Tuesday and Saturday mornings.</span></div>

<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
With that said, on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday nights, I apply a GENEROUS amount of conditioner into my hair and let it drink up...I'm talking 2-4 hours. Here are the different conditioners I've played with so far:</div>

The Marshalls clearance shelf has become my best friend on this journey, along with the convenience of Amazon to buy the different oils. My hair still has a long way to go, due to years of neglect, mistreatment and lack of knowledge, but it's soooooo nice to have a healthy scalp and fluffy hair. Now that I'm onto the second phase, my goal is to really strengthen and thicken my hair to its maximum potential. </div>

I knew I had to follow what was inspiring me...which is moving to Hawaii! </span><br />

Score! While painting I decided to listen to Sword and Scale, a podcast that my coworkers have been begging me to tune into. Each episode tells a different story about heinous crimes that have been committed over the years. Super captivating and I absolutely love getting lost in the stories, as well as visually in the painting. Escaping is my thing haha </span><br />

Hard to believe, right!? They look like college girls. So how does this elaborate skincare routine reverse aging? Koreans believe the secret to obtaining perfect skin is through proper cleansing, prevention and HYDRATION. If you're intrigued by this as much as myself, I highly recommend you peep this YouTuber named <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/YellowyCream/videos" target="_blank">Liah Yoo</a> who breaks it all down. </div>

It's been a while since I've sat down and focused my thoughts long enough to formulate another blog post. Hurricane Irma rolled through a few days ago which was not fun at all. However; sitting in front of the window left me starstruck by mother nature's power as the winds gusted by...and than it would abruptly stop for a few moments. Followed by another band. At one point my parents, sister and I were all sitting in the hallway once a tornado alert popped up on all of our phones. In efforts to relax myself, I drowned out the hissing winds from beyond the walls and popped in my earbuds. Through my meditation music and deep breathing, I heard my sister hysterically laughing. I open my eyes and looking back at me, are my mom and dad sitting across the hall, wearing their bike helmets. hahaha<br />

<br />
How is it already August? This year has flown by (thank goodness). I'd be lying if I said this year was exciting and action-packed...but 2017 has been incredibly healing. I'm making moves to continue turning those pages, which will lead to the next chapter of my life. Some chapters aren't meant to be read aloud and that's completely okay.<br />
<br />
So guess what? I have exciting news!!<br />
<br />
Last week I shipped out six Garden of Weeden prints to different Dispensaries around the country.<br />

Two to Cali, two to Colorado and two to Vegas. On Saturday, one of the employees at the Denver Dispensary reached out, to inform me that they framed and hung the drawing in their lobby area! They also hung the handwritten note and a business card next to the drawing! AHHH<br />

I live for these moments. :) Moments that manifest from working hard, reaching out to the unknown and receiving praise and positivity. Creating something yourself, from the ground up and seeing little achievements, is so gratifying. 2017 has also taught me to not give up, even when you want to throw the flag in and call it quits. There's no other option, but to silently win.<br />

Michelle has already been in contact with new Au Pair jobs from Hawaii, Colorado, Australia, Canada, etc. The goal is to photograph all the shoots needed for 2018 when she returns from New Zealand and before she leaves again on her new adventure. I'm determined to pump out 25 new pieces for 2018, allotting me two weeks for each one. </div>

I'm learning that success takes ample amount of work and the more pieces I have in the Series, the more likely it will reach the masses and take off. If everything goes to plan, this <a href="https://www.jeremymannino.com/shop-1" target="_blank">series</a> will grow to 55 pieces by the end of next year!! Than it's off to Hawaii to start my next chapter, titled <i>Aloha</i>. </div>

Our animals have become nothing more than objects, who are raped, caged, beaten, immobilized, force-fed, mutilated, hung, gutted, electrocuted, ground and packaged for human consumption. The FDA doesn't care about you</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="color: #1d2129; display: inline; font-family: "san francisco" , , "blinkmacsystemfont" , ".sfnstext-regular" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.000000953674316px; letter-spacing: -0.23999999463558197px;">r health, quite the contrary. These animals contract illness and diseases, running rampant in factory farms, which than enter our system when consuming their body parts. The pharmaceutical industry is a multi-billion dollar industry, which depends on the food and dairy industry, to profit off the sick. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the average Pharmacist salary is $106,410 annually.<br /><br />Speaking of numbers, roughly 56 billion animals are factory farmed every year. A number so insanely large, that my mind is unable to grasp it. Thatās over 153,000 animals slaughtered everyday. Thatās equivalent to killing almost every resident in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on a daily basis. Their blood and waste seep into nearby lakes and than enter our water system. Remains are used as pet food (ironic, huh?) and gelatin. Gelatin is a protein obtained by boiling their skin, tendons, ligaments, and/or bones with water and itās used as a thickener in candy.<br /><br />Unfortunately, six corporations own more than 90% of the media in America. Television, radio, magazines, etc. This control ensures GE, Viacom, Disney, Time Warner, News-Corp and CBS that you see and donāt see exactly what they want you to. Enter the fear-mongering, lies, brainwashing, distractions and political nonsense.<br /><br />But thereās a simple solution to reverse the carbon footprint that weāve already imprinted onto Mother Earthā¦by incorporating more organic, plant-based foods into our lives! Mass animal suffering will cease to exist once we stop supporting it with our dollar. Plants are medicine, not pills. Heal yourself, heal this planet and be a guardian for the voiceless.<br /><br />Michelle was shot up into space, received new keys to reach enlightenment and now itās time for her to travel back down to Earth and take a closer look.
