Light of the Soil Wellness System - Founder Timeline
- Details
Start Here
This page is the beginning of my documented shift from borrowed energy (stimulants, adrenaline, crashes) to real vitality (sleep depth, calm focus, steady mood, circulation, and consistent sexual health). What follows is honest, measured, and lived.
What this is
A real recovery record—tracking withdrawal, stabilization, and long-term rhythm restoration. It’s systems thinking applied to the human body: restore conditions and let biology do the work.
What this is not
Not hype. Not a quick fix. Not a miracle claim. This is slow, steady rebuilding—sleep, minerals, movement, breathing, and nutrition—documented honestly.
How to use this timeline
- Read the Recovery Timeline to understand the full arc.
- Use Recovery Milestones for week-by-week expectations.
- Use Logs & Metrics for accountability and pattern awareness.
Systems & Protocols
The habits and tools built to stabilize energy and nervous system health.

Recovery is not a diagnosis or a label. It is the natural process of restoring function after disruption. We recover from exhaustion, stress, illness, loss, nutrient depletion, and periods of imbalance.
Light of the Soil exists to support that recovery—whatever the cause, and wherever someone is starting from.

Stimulant Abuse → Recovery Milestones → Long-Term Vitality
This is my documented shift from “borrowed energy” (stimulants + sugar + adrenaline) to real energy: sleep depth, calm focus, stable mood, better circulation, and sustainable drive.
What “stimulant abuse” meant for my body
The daily stimulant + sugar hit pushed my nervous system into chronic “fight-or-flight.” Over time that can flatten sleep quality, raise stress hormones, disrupt appetite, and blunt libido.
Key Light of the Soil concept: Borrowed energy is paid back with interest. Real energy is built from rhythm.
My rebuild pillars Light of the Soil Wellness System (LOTSWS)
- Hydration + electrolytes (steady blood volume + circulation)
- Mineral rebuild (magnesium, potassium, zinc support)
- Sleep depth (deep sleep drives hormone repair)
- Movement (walk/ride = calm circulation + nervous system reset)
- Breathing (interrupts adrenaline loops; restores parasympathetic tone)
Stimulant Era (Before Oct 8)
Daily high-stimulant intake created artificial drive and focus, but at the cost of sleep architecture, calmer blood flow, mood stability, and sexual consistency.
- Common signs: wired-but-tired, sleep fragmentation, irritability, anxiety spikes
- Sexual impact drivers: cortisol elevation + blood vessel constriction + sleep loss
Decision Point: Stimulant-Free Begins
I stopped the daily stimulant pattern and committed to rebuilding real energy. This is the “foundation day” I log as the start of my LOTSWS recovery arc.
Withdrawal + Stabilization
The nervous system recalibrates. Energy can dip. Mood can swing. Sleep can feel strange. This is normal: receptors and stress hormones are resetting.
- Wins to log: hydration consistency, walks, earlier bedtime, fewer adrenaline spikes
- Focus: steady meals (protein + fiber), magnesium support, gentle movement
Sleep Return + Cortisol Smoothing
Deeper sleep begins to return. Morning calm improves. Cravings and irritability usually lessen. This is where “real recovery” starts to feel possible.
- Wins to log: fewer crashes, steadier mood, better morning outlook
- Sexual health note: improved sleep is a major driver of libido and performance recovery
Calm Energy + Circulation Rebuild
This is where many people notice: “I feel more like myself.” Focus returns without panic energy. Blood pressure and resting heart rate often improve.
- Wins to log: better endurance, fewer anxious spikes, stronger daily rhythm
- Sexual health note: calmer nervous system + improved blood flow = more consistent response
Long-Term Vitality (Sustainable Drive)
The goal is not “hyped energy.” The goal is steady vitality: better sleep depth, stable mood, reliable libido, and daily momentum that doesn’t require stimulants.
- Wins to log: stable appetite, consistent movement, calm confidence, improved sexual consistency
- Foundation habits: morning light, walking/ride routine, breathing resets, clean fuel
Daily Log (copy/paste)
Use this to track the “inner soil” signals that matter most during recovery:
- Sleep: bedtime / wake time / quality (1–10)
- Calm: baseline anxiety (1–10) + triggers noted
- Energy: morning / midday / evening (1–10)
- Movement: steps + ride/walk minutes
- Circulation: BP/HR (optional) + hydration
- Sexual health: libido (1–10), confidence (1–10), erections (morning/other)
- Nutrition anchors: protein + minerals + whole-food carbs
- Recovery tools used: breathing resets, stretching, Moonbrew, etc.
