One suggestion, and maybe you are already doing this. Make sure when you breathe your breaths are gentle, especially when doing the Beatha or round breathing. Do not force the breaths. As Laura says on the CD, breath gently.

may i ask if my understanding of meditation symptoms is correct?
is my observation correct that any tingling and slight it is sign of blockage ?

If i am in any way correct can you suggest any work i should do?
i am attempting to do do inner work and observation etc. but maybe there is any thing else that you can suggest??

thank you
 
Does it matter much, and how and why, if someone accidentally, or intentionally, does Eiriu Eolas at 1.25X speed?

I did this today accidentally as I was listening to Mary Balough's "The Arrangement" at 1.25X speed. About 2/3rds into Eiriu Eolas, at the start of POTS, is when I noticed it.

My guess is that it's best to go at regular speed, but doing it at 1.25X is probably not a big deal.

Unless it means you will attain enlightenment 0.25X faster?! Please keep us posted on that!

🤣

I didn't notice any difference, besides more tears than what I usually remember. I don't know what that means, maybe releasing 0.25X faster. Maybe the tears have nothing to do with the speed difference directly, and there's another factor.

If one is breathing forcefully, one may be getting too much oxygen which can cause tingling and lightheadedness.

Hmm.. good point.. I sometimes experience localised 'tingling' during the round breathing portion of the EE programme, but without the light-headedness. I have usually interpreted this localised tingling as indicating areas where I have been carrying tension, however, just the other evening I experienced a lot of tingling in my gums..(!), which likely kiboshes my 'tension' theory.. :rolleyes:
As a point of interest, I looked up 'Gum Problems' in Louse Hay's 'Heal you Body':
"Gum Problems - Inability to back up decisions. Wishy-washy about life"...

(I've decided to console myself with the fact that I don't have any particular issues with my gums):whistle: :-D

As you can see below, we are working on the video portion and there will be a final audio segment.

I use this technique when I wake up during the night to get me back to sleep.
 
I practice EE once a week during the day. I have the CD in French. I'd like to thank the coach, who has a very warm and reassuring voice. For a while now, I've been thinking I'm going into hypnosis or trance mode when I do the circular breathing. I've noticed that I leave very quickly, following the timbre of her voice. Once, instead of recovering slowly, I went back to my activities too quickly. It didn't take long for nausea to set in, and I felt that part of me had returned to the body later when I noticed that the timbre of my voice had adjusted and that I was sitting upright again. If there's a kind of hypnosis, can it help to impregnate the unconscious? I hope so.

What you describe sounds to me like zoning out/passing out:

Laura said:
Q: (L) A number of people on the forum have talked about the zoning out thing, the, ya know... while still awake seemingly, losing all awareness of self and just kind of zoning out. What is this phenomenon?

A: See previous answer and think of it as spending "time" with the higher self/teacher instead of wasting the ability to dissociate on futile illusions. Also remember that "time" spent in this process utilizes this "soul ability" as it was originally intended. It taxes the soul greatly to be embodied.

In the same line as zoning out, I've noticed something from a small deviation in the practice. I don't know if it's already been reported by anyone else, so my apologies for not reading everything.

Quick background, I used to faint when I was younger, somehow, when I receiced a physical and sometimes mild hit. Medical brain tests wouldn't give any explanation.
Point is that just before falling unconscious, I had a light headed feeling rising up till I fell.

I was then surprised to meet that same feeling again, though minor in intensity bcs not fainting afterwards, when holding my breath in for a bit after the very last inhale of the Ba-Ha exercise.

I do it from time to time, for experiment, and it does happen mechanically, still depending on the quality of the pratice. It's probably linked to the mild hyperventilation eventhough I haven't noticed any negative effect, such as limb paralysis or others, while doing it.

Noticing the same feeling through these two different source experiences appeared curious.

I think the most likely explanation of this is a combination of hyperventilation and then applying some abdominal pressure against your closed glottis (which increases your intrathoracic pressure and reduces your blood flow going back to your heart). The two mechanisms can temporarily reduce your cardiac output to a degree where you can become unconscious.

I remember in school we used to do that in recess for a while until the teachers put an end to it.

The remedy is to limit the amount of breathing to reduce hyperventilation and when you hold your breath to keep your glottis open (kinda like continue to breathe in without any air moving), before releasing the breath. Be sure to not let the pressure slump into your abdomen (which is what produces the positive pressure in your chest - as opposed to having a negative pressure when you breathe in).

Some people are just more sensitive to this manoeuvre than others .
