Q: (laughter) (A**) Thanks a lot! (DD) What was the cloud that I saw over the house coming {over here this evening}? Was there any significance to that?

A: Our gathering energy attractor.[/quote]

[quote author=Laura] We are planning an anniversary session, so it just might be interesting to be "connecting" all over the world.
....
I also understand that a major storm is coming soon [/quote]

I bet it is !!!!! ;)

Please thank C's for forumites !!!!!

OMG - I just listened to it. (I'm a bit early, but had some rare quiet time to do it.)

Words can't really cover it, but it was simply beautiful and at the end I felt such a wondrous surge of hope and faith and trust in the Universe.

Thank you so very much Laura and all for making this!

The breathing video was beautifully done, and some decent stretches were just what I needed today. I look forward to practicing daily, especially since this simple and straightforward format helps me to combat my tendency to procrastinate or do things half-assed . Thanks so much to Laura and all involved for making such vital information available to us all--and so quickly! Happy breathing, everyone.

Also, did anyone else experience a lot of external and internal interruptions while trying to get through the video?

I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart. That was the most amazing, relaxing, invigorating, cathartic experience I've ever had......

Also, did anyone else experience a lot of external and internal interruptions while trying to get through the video?

Yes! Half way through pipe breathing into the middle of my chest I noticed the 'weeeee' in my right ear (I mentally said to myself 'oh no you don't!')....guess we must have got there attention tonight. It was after then the distractions ramped up, but not enough to cope with or learn from. :)

I was actually thinking that tonight might be a good night for some of you to begin the practice - after all, it is the Cs' 15 year anniversary. We are planning an anniversary session, so it just might be interesting to be "connecting" all over the world.

I started at 9.30pm GMT....and did my best to connect in a nonanticipatory/nonlinear manner (I brought party hats!)

I also understand that a major storm is coming soon... so we may be doing the session by candlelight with a batter powered recorder!

I had no idea until you mentioned it.....after the third verse (I think) of the prayer of the soul I had thunder rolling in the background for the entire next verse! That was quite distracting....but I kind of saw part of me getting worked up by it, and let it go....it shouldn't bother me.

I was able to cry in a way I've never done before......to add to this (as I noticed I kept stopping myself) I mentally made an origami paper dove from my sadness and grief, held it in my hands and let it fly free, which unblocked everything I was stopping......I've never cried like that before.

I hope tonight's session is a good one (and that the STS forces don't trouble you guys too much)....that storm is sure rumbling a lot! (I'm using my laptop on battery's)
Happy birthday the C's. I hope you (they) had cake! :D

Yes, 3 phone calls!

Thank you for the video, it's really amazingly done!

Sky: I can hear Laura's voice and I can understand a bit but cannot make out the exact word for word. I don't know if it's possible for one to transcript the audio part of the video (so I can memorize it then excerise).

I will do this tomorrow, and if I finish it in time, I will post it in the evening.

Also, did anyone else experience a lot of external and internal interruptions while trying to get through the video?

Yes, 3 phone calls!

this tends to happen with me as well a lot of times, every time I read something interesting my phone starts to ring at exact those moments, perhaps one should disconnect the phone/mobile?!?! ;)

p.s Happy birthday C's!

 

[Buddy]

Thank you for the video, it's really amazingly done!

I second that! It is beautiful and was done thoughtfully and beautifully. I found myself wanting to be there to experience the setting. Thank you one million buckwheat crepes!! :)

 

[mkrnhr]

I just completed the breathing exercises and the meditation session... My first try. It's like feeling "cleaner", this is the closest word I could fine to this sensation.
For the moment, I have only one thought : thank you. Thank you Laura, thank you the Sott team, thank you the Cassiopaeans, really really profoundly from the the heart, the one I feel right now. It's like I didn't feel it before!!? I discovered the Cassiopaea website years ago, and this is really the best thing that happenend in my life, and for that all I can say is thank you

 

[anart]

I have been told that the meditation audio is now uploaded. Again, it can be linked to from here:

Wow. That was/is incredibly powerful. I can't overstate the impact of these tools you have so generously provided; you have Given. I think, applied, this might just change Everything.

 

[mamadrama]

I 2nd that! It was amazing. Thank you Laura, team, & C's. I am deeply grateful.

Also, did anyone else experience a lot of external and internal interruptions while trying to get through the video?

LOL I started the meditation at 10:30 pm and didn't get it completely finished until 12:30 am. Each of my children came in and interupted the meditation, needing something or another and I'd start again. My youngest one woke up twice with leg cramps, and I finally just let him lay down on the sofa with me during the round breathing and Prayer of the Soul. He went quite peacefully off to sleep. For me it was deeply cathartic. Again, thank you!

 

[NormaRegula]

Wow!!! Positively moving! And that gorgeous music! Who composed and orchestrated it? Was that you on the harp, Laura? The piano was divine. Wonderful, peaceful, yet energizing.

During the Warrior Breath, thought I was going to loose my voice. My throat felt a bit parched from all those 'hahs'. Got through it and now feel fine. Well, better than fine!

Thank you...thank you...thank you QFG!

 

[Smallwood]

Thank You Laura and QFG for putting together these lessons! Again the quality of the production is nothing short of perfect. Laura has a very special voice, even when I am not in the mindset to be relaxed her voice will relax my shoulders.

I feel so overwhelmed by all the manifested creativity put forth lately in this forum that I actually feel a bit lightheaded only trying to comprehend all of it It kind of makes me angry that I am in a constant state of identification with this and that that I completely forget about practising pipe-breathing.

Also, did anyone else experience a lot of external and internal interruptions while trying to get through the video?

Actually, my power went out in the middle of it

 

[herondancer]

I just completed the audio now at the stroke of midnight MDT. Does that still make it for the anniversary? .

Still feeling kinda light-headed but oh, so relaxed. I think I will sleep very well tonight. One odd thing was the rapid breathing made my head cold. Could be the sinuses being chilled from the quick air exchange. It was a strange sensation but not unpleasant. I didn't have any unusual initial experiences in the meditation, but a practice like this is journey. Who knows where it will go?

Anart said it perfectly:

I've made a donation at the link, but truly, this is priceless information. Thank you all at the Chateau for sharing it so freely.

Geez! this is wonderful, thank you so much Laura and the QFS team, just viewing it makes me feel so relax. I´ve been practicing the pipe breathing, but this certainly amplifies the effect: the combination of that soothing voice, the music, the video and the three beautiful ladies ... it is simply so powerful and helpful, a very very powerful tool as anart says i think.

I couldn't agree more! What a marvelous journey this life has been so far, eh? :)

I arrived home at midnight and after reading this thread, i went immediately into the meditation audio, skipping the exercises part, since i went for massage earlier, and, i guess, my body was already relaxed and worked-on.

During the rapid breathing i had a hard time following. Not because it was too quick, but because it lasted for so long. I felt this inner frustration for wanting to go back to my normal breathing, but i kept following the ba-ha and suddenly i started laughing really intensely, and then i cried for a short while, really intensely. But i kept trying to keep up with the breathing and kept coming back to it. I was able to fully relax during the meditation, but then i was too energized and it took a while to go to sleep. I am very much looking forward to doing it every night and see what kind of adventure it will turn out to be.

It was a very intense and at the same time invigorating experience for me, and i appreciate all the effort and energy put into creating these amazing and so helpfull videos, all of you!
