Éiriú-Eolas - Breathing Program

[Zadius Sky]

During my meditation last night I experienced extreme tingling in the hands, to the point where it went beyond numbness to almost a feeling of movement on the surface. It's hard to explain. I also felt that on my lips and toes, but nowhere else. No zoning out for me lately, and I am usually not very tired afterward.

During the program yesterday evening, I still had that pressure on my forehead. After reading what Laura said about "holding" it while doing the program, I did so and I felt my forehead was increasing in pressure, then it was literally burning. I've never felt that before. It actually hurted. No zoning out for me either, but experienced a bit of a time loss, though where Ba-Ha portion seemed rather short than usual. Also, towards the end of that Ba-Ha, I saw, as if only for a moment, what seemed to be a torture of some guy as he was chained to a wooded board attached on a stoned wall and he was screaming. It was nighttime and I was standing near him. I've felt that guy in pain was me, but he wasn't me. It was quite unnerving, actually.

After the program, about two hours later, I've felt incredibility tired as if my body was really to go to sleep, so I did. It was around 8pm. I've woke up early this morning, with tears in my eyes but I don't remember crying at all or had any dreams either.

I do the program every evening and I’ve noticed a difference on Mondays and Thursdays. Yesterday (and last Thursday) I found I was much more distracted than usual, with almost uncontrollable yawning, itching, fidgeting and so on, which brought up a feeling of anger. I had to work hard to keep myself focussed on the exercises. My impression is that this is the predators’ mind/machine going into overdrive on those days because the threat to this part is amplified exponentially by all the other people doing the program. I could be completely wrong about that, but that is my take on it present.

I don't do the full meditation except on Monday & Thursday, but definitely had some distractions yesterday. My nose started flairing up and hurting during the Ba-Ha portion of the program. It was so painful to breathe I kept on having to rub my nose and wet the inside of my nostrils to ease the pain and even contemplated stopping the program.
But I wasn't going to give in and stayed committed throughout until I reached the meditation part of the program, at which point it wasn't as painful.

All I could think of was the latest C's session where they mention commitment. I couldn't let something like my nose hurting stop me!

This is the first time in my life that I've ever done any meditation program. I've been finding the breathing/meditation easier to get through and extremely relaxing. I've had a few crying spells, some head pressure and mild tingling sensations during. I get a moderate pain on the right side of my mid-back that could be related to sitting crosslegged -- I sometimes feel a bit unbalanced, as if I may fall over. I still sometimes zone out during the beatha and the prayer but not as easily as before.

Yesterday I had some strange dreams afterward, which is nothing new as my dreams are mostly fraught with terror and take place in some kind of alternate universe or post-apocalyptic world. The difference is that these weren't scary and I wasn't being chased. In the first, I had some special power that allowed me to alter my physical body and move through space. I remember planting some seeds in my fathers yard knowing that the veggies would sprout quickly, I would eat them and be able to control my body. I was climbing trees and swinging on branches and replicating myself.

Laura was featured in the second dream. There was a conference being held in France but some of the people there were not doing the work. There was a woman who was having relationship trouble and her boyfriend kept sending her cakes and pies to try to get back with her. Laura was telling the woman that her boyfriend couldn't possibly be good for her because he was sending her gluten filled snacks and gluten is evil!!

Hi Daniel. What is the temperature of the air around you during the breathing exercises?

I discovered I needed it a bit warmer with my sessions and with a little humidity. Both dry and cool air burns my nose.

So I had my first go at the full program tonight and it was quite relaxing. I have a semi-euphoric feeling and I'm really relaxed at present. There was a spot in the bio-energetic breathing portion where i got all sorts of uncomfortable, i felt really weird for a second and then had brief moment where i thought i was going to cry, and then it passed and the rest of the program went without incident. After the meditation portion my entire body felt so relaxed, it was like it was there and not there, it took me a moment after the music stopped for me to realize it was over and I could move again. Sensations varied, one thing that seems consistent is a spike in body temp when I do the pipe breathing. I've had minor throbbing of the third eye area once, when i first started practicing pipe breathe, and tonight this spot on my back left shoulder where I usually get some some random muscle pain was all electric-tingly - it actually felt good.

Overall the program is really well done, quite professional and super-cute. Laura's voice is extremely relaxing and she sounds like this is the most natural thing for her to be doing. The music accompaniment was really chill as well, a perfect little addition. Mucho thankies to Laura and the rest of the team for their hard work. I'll kick in some extra donation bux, it's totally worth it.

@DanielS - also got the burnin nostril bit, my AC was cranked though, so I turned it down and it seemed to go away. Haven't had the chance to read all the most recent posts in the thread, so if i have anything else to add I'll do so lates.

I have read the transcript of the video and plan to do my own warm up exercises. There is only one small problem- I have a terrible fear about it. Has anyone else felt this?

Interesting, because when you think about it logically, what is there to fear from some extremely gentle warm up exercises and a little meditation - Is this your false personality's fear of being 'outed' and usurped by the 'real' you?

Castaneda's Don Juan referred to this as the 'predator's mind'. You might find this interesting:

In order to keep us obedient and meek and weak, the predators engaged themselves in a stupendous maneuver - stupendous, of course, from the point of view of a fighting strategist. A horrendous maneuver from the point of view of those who suffer it. They gave us their mind! Do you hear me? The predators give us their mind, which becomes our mind. The predators' mind is baroque, contradictory, morose, filled with the fear of being discovered any minute now.

I know that even though you have never suffered hunger... you have food anxiety, which is none other than the anxiety of the predator who fears that any moment now its maneuver is going to be uncovered and food is going to be denied. Through the mind, which, after all, is their mind, the predators inject into the lives of human beings whatever is convenient for them. And they ensure, in this manner, a degree of security to act as a buffer against their fear.

After three weeks of the breathing, I now started with the meditation since four days. When I do the breathing I get hot in the belly. a inner warmth, like a burning fire, coming from inside. This heat has increased when I do the meditation, to the point that I feel like burning in the whole upper body. At the end of last nights breathing, prior to the meditation, there was some tingling in the hands. It went away during the meditation. I had some zoning out, but I could clearly distinguish that it was 'something' that tried to distract me from reciting the soul prayer. After a few lines I would get distracted and I would start again, until, after many times, I got to the end of the poem without zoning out. Afterwards I could recite it without interruption. Slept dreamless afterwards, well refreshed in the morning. In the morning I could still feel a specific point on the rightside of my neck, somewhere halfway. It is not painful, I just can feel it. During the breathing of this morning it seemed to crack further open (which it did also last night), almost with the sound like cracking fingers produce (though not so loud). Has this something to do with the vagus nerve?

I discovered I needed it a bit warmer with my sessions and with a little humidity. Both dry and cool air burns my nose.

The air was both dry and cool when I did the session. I think the temperature for the A/C was at 23 Degrees, and it was very hot and humid outside. So there was a big contrast in the house as opposed to outside.

Unless I'm mistaken, I remember you writing about this earlier, were you able to find a solution? I'm thinking either open the window so the A/C isn't so "in your face" or Vicks on the nose in case this happens again.

First of all: many thanks Laura for your full involvement in the cause of serving others.
Even if I still have some doubts about the C's and their messages, I have to say that you'r an example of the way we all should act vis à vis our neighbours.

I've been out of shape (physically and psychologically) for a year now and the breathing / meditation technique helps me a lot.

I just submit the following proposal to your attention:

Wouldn't it be of a great power if all the people involved in this project would recite the prayer of the soul at the same time ?
We could broadcast worldly the prayer at a given time.

Wouldn't it be a way to subsume the community and have a greater influence on the event ?

Do you guys have a Negative Ion generator? Perhaps that would help?

Hi IronFloyd,

I have come to this thread very late, after not reading the forum for a while. I have been reading all the posts and am almost finished. I did the first breathing exercise the other night and had music on my playlist after it. At the end of the narrative I heard a click and the music started at a loud volume. I must say that I never heard music sound like that before! It sounded alive. I have listened to the meditation mp3 and have not tried it yet, however, while I listened to the prayer I felt maternally loved, like I haven't for a very long time and I started to cry. I plan to practice the meditation and breathing tonight for the first time (it took me 2 days to download). I have read the transcript of the video and plan to do my own warm up exercises. There is only one small problem- I have a terrible fear about it. Has anyone else felt this?

mmmm... I think its probably "possesion"...

Could you explain what you mean by that?

Yes, I'm sure you are correct about it being my predator being afraid. I guess I was also afraid of having some severe detox symptoms and being alone to cope with them. It didn't keep me from doing the program and I was surprised not to have severe effects. I see our "higher self" will only take us along at the rate we can safely progress. I feel a little calmer this morning and will repeat the exercise today. The only physical symptoms I had was a feeling like I was in labor, about to give birth. It was a great comfort to "hear" someone crying with me when I was weeping so uncontrollably.

I needed two solutions. The first offered by Black Swan was to focus my inhales from the diaghram and the throat (constricted breathing during Pipe Breathing).

The second solution was to warm the air around me during the breathing sessions so that I'm not breathing cold, dry air. Anytime I have to do sharp, quick intakes of air thru my nose, the cold, dry air drys out the nasal passages and makes it sting.

Laura advised to do the whole program twice a week and to do the meditation every day.

Hi, by the whole program you meant the excercises+the meditation? I've ended my first session a few minutes ago, so I'm not yet fuly read up to the topic.

I'd like to renew my previous question.
What is the whole program? Is it exercises plus meditation?

 

[anart]

Yes, Daniello, as Laura explained when she advised doing it twice a week, and as Perceval also mentioned, it is the whole program, including the breathing exercises and the meditation.
