Is this like that time you tried to get me into bukkake, Dave?

Used to be back in the day but after needing surgery I reluctantly gave it up.

YOLO

    bosstrabs Who else is into this?

    I am not. However I do do TM, which I find beneficial. I applaud your efforts to expand your consciousness and reduce stress and wish you luck with your own journey.

      Absolutely. I didn’t like how everyone was insinuating this was you shoving things up your ass. Real lack of emotional maturity by the lads.

      I prefer a kitchen sink.

      Oi Oi!

      bosstrabs the gateway experience stuff? Very out there. You can pay a small fortune for the tapes or if you look hard enough there are free downloads on some enthusiast’s Google drive

        bosstrabs that was an enjoyable read. Probably a load of bollocks though and it would probably be more effective to take a heroic dose of psilocybin or DMT if ‘transcendence’ is what you want to experience.

        The tapes and the gateway method? Can’t hurt to try I guess. In worst case you’ll have wasted a week and in best case you can now relax and meditate better.

        The CIA is know for exploring all kinds of ‘paranormal’ avenues during the cold war in any attempt to one-up the others.

          All sounds like mumbo jumbo

          All you need is to listen to this

          bosstrabs well that’s bloody interesting

          I started using Binaural from relaxing sounds on the Alexa in my bedroom to sleep to about 18months ago. My sleep has been fucking superb since I started. Best sleep I’ve had in years, wake up far more rested and focused than I ever have

            bosstrabs Just had a look on reddit and there are some quite intresting anecdotes on this. Have you tried it yourself?

            On a similar-ish note I found this article interesting:

            https://www.theguardian.com/society/2024/apr/02/new-science-of-death-brain-activity-consciousness-near-death-experience.

            It’s actually quite easy to write alot of this kind of stuff off as woowoo, but then when you look into quantum mechanics (particularly quantum entanglement) there’s stuff going on that we just can’t explain using traditional physics. Our current view of realitly is incomplete.

              Millsy The FT’s review is quite good.

              Unfortunately, her approach worked a bit like this: imagine a bunch of people are stuck in a warm, stuffy room together. Everyone wants the windows to be opened, but they are fastened shut by complicated locks. While people try to work out how the locks operate, one of them, Liz, attempts to throw a chair through the window. The chair bounces off and hits her in the face.

                If you stick the word ‘repeatedly’ on the end there’s a mini-series script that people would watch on repeat, for hard cash

                Nah, you can’t just listen to them back to back. Or rather you shouldn’t. It’s a process that needs much more than that sort of time investment

                I find half a bottle of red most nights helps me sleep brilliantly.

                  Mad_Cyril ask Alexa to open ‘Relaxing Sounds’ then choose ‘Binaural’when prompted.

                  Choose a volume that’s comfortable and go to sleep.

                    Nice one Eril, seems relatively uncomplicated.

                    Who turns it off ?

                    • erik replied to this.

                      Mad_Cyril . You can either set a timer but I let it run all night.

                      Does it get you to the vibrational stage though, Erib?

                        I can’t begin to describe how good this meditation is. I’ve been listing to it almost every day for the last week. Just the right amount of guidance to get you in to a deep state and then it’s just the hemi-sync waves. I come out feeling totally refreshed and energized!
