1. The period of adaptation.
Posted: Wed May 01, 2013 12:55
At this stage we do not set ourselves the task to accomplish something and somewhere to go we'll just have to get used to a mind-machine correctly. This time of adaptation, which will allow us more effectively to start the workshop, so I will ask each participant to treat it very seriously – how will this introductory period will depend on the efficiency of the rest of the workshop. don't need to apply any techniques, methods and drugs, aiding relaxation (with the exception of cases when it recommended individually), no need to try to establish anchors (although some will come spontaneously) - only need to use the session as intended and to observe his condition.
best of all, if we are going to do twice a day:
- immediately after waking (when the body is still relaxed from sleep, and the EEG and so the predominance of the natural frequency alpha range due to the fact that all sorts of disturbing thoughts have not had time to flood the inner monologue, breaking up the frequency)
and just before falling asleep (when the body itself must be located in a similar condition in a natural way).
The time search is not necessary - just set an alarm for 25 minutes earlier and instead of sleep, to devote some time to self-development (quality of rest in this will only improve).
PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO the FACT THAT IF YOU CHOOSE 2 CLASSES per DAY, BE GOOD to DO 2 sets during the DAY (EVEN LIKE! NO "TOMORROW I THREE TIMES WILL DO, AND TODAY, BETTER CATCH SOME SLEEP"). EACH PASS IS A SIGNAL TO YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS THAT THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS WORKSHOP NOT EVEN ENOUGH TO SPEND 20 MINUTES TO REST, NOT TO MENTION SOMETHING MORE SERIOUS - EACH SUCH SIGNAL REDUCES MOTIVATION, AND THUS THE CHANCES OF FINISHING EVEN THE FIRST STEP. If you have the opportunity to engage with someone as a couple (and preferably three), you should use it, give the practice a competitive time - you will push and motivate each other, which will give an extra chance not to succumb to provocations laziness and make classes more interesting and exciting.
For more stable result would be better a little to synchronize the time bedtime - routine is a very useful thing, at least for basic physiological processes such as sleep and eating. People in fact is a biological machine, if today, and yesterday, he ate at 12, then tomorrow at eleven thirty, his stomach begins to secrete gastric juice to digest food better in 12 (do not get food at the appointed time, may begin to digest itself). If a person goes at half past twelve nights (for the physiological rhythms of the organism best sleep before midnight, and therefore the intensity of the processes at the later falling asleep need to raise), then some kind of trigger (like listening to a relaxing session before bed), can activate the same intensive treatment and at 10 PM, resulting in sleep cycles can be disturbed.
If after a listening session before going to sleep You woke up in the middle of the night - record time. If you believe that you will never be able to sleep - do something quickly You will tire (no computer or TV - the flickering of the monitor activates the brain, if he has no need to sleep), drink some water and go back to sleep no later than 80 minutes after waking - sleep cycle of a person is about one and a half hours, this adjusts all biochemistry and rebuild it only after 10 hours - not before.
If suddenly someone has the opportunity to work on another time, right after lunch, then you can use this time (the period of the decay of biological activity, which has already been discussed in the issue about an afternoon NAP, very suitable to practice with the MM).
The composition of the material of the first phase included sound files with audiostrobe-track 11 versions of the same session (alpha for beginners from a set of MindExplorer SW 7.4), but in different background design. That is, the ratio of the frequencies of intervals of time in all eleven files are absolutely identical, changed only the form of the signal and the background sound - addiction session should not be, but the sequence all the time the same, so the brain adapts. And a shortened version of the session for classes in the afternoon - just 12 minutes (done at the same frequency in Adobe autdition).
And 7 variations with sounds of nature for a start - we will listen to the first 5 days and first three days to do it only in the headphones - without using points. Start to listen to them once until you listen and there at random, giving preference to the most favorite is absolutely the same files in them only the background is different (taken from yugson and substations) to bring down the frequency of the picture and not to cause habituation to the session. Opinion about what works better and what is worse, are welcome.
Those who are just beginning to learn MM, I suggest a few days to listen to them without the use of light - that is, only headphones, without glasses.
the use of other psychoactive audio programs or sessions with other sessions of the mind-machine should be avoided after the workshop they will be much more efficient, but now only interference will be to create. Besides, who did a week-long pause before starting, I recommend nevertheless to take my advice and at least a week did not use before to proceed to the first training that helps a lot.
I Remind you that the brightness and the volume needs to be minimal - to distinguish between flash and clearly hear the sounds session, but no more in this case, the adaptation will be smooth and of high quality. You can, of course, to make brighter (beginners during this session will trample images - vivid visual images - colors, fractals, kaleidoscopes and even a clear three-dimensional objects at the end of the session), but on the third session of the brain is likely to quickly turn all of the excitement and begin active resistance, and it would really hurt in the future.
Also make sure that when using the player play only one file with the session, but not everything turns - if You fall asleep during the session and Wake the next file (and newbies usually are), it is likely to Wake up in the middle of the next session and a few hours will feel worse than usual (and if it was before bed and in the morning there may be some consequences). This task is easier to shift on electronics - now the majority of players support playlists, but if not, then every file placed in separate folder and set the repeat mode to "normal". If a playlist or folder with a single file, then after playback the player will stop playing. In the default navigation plays only the selected file (if you do not enable playback of all files in the folder).
The files each enrolled member will receive a PM. Who needs access to the folder with the stage Yandex-disk (for easy downloading), you can send me your e-mail address for invitation. This does not mean that all issues about their listening I need to write in the PM that is. All questions are asked here, in the relevant subject, and there I have anyone I will not answer - just annoying each participant individually on the same questions to answer, especially when they are already in the description are disclosed.
For convenience, you can make notes about training on any calendar or in a diary - time session and the result briefly (no result - zero, sleeping - cross, nice and relaxed - tick, more convenient to use different colors so it's easier to track the dynamics of the result).
For those who don't know how to determine whether there has come already the alpha state or not, I will explain. Alpha should not "hack sleep" (it comes from natrenirovannosti or arrears of sleep, the brain is easier to include protection, and to fall in Delta) - ideally needs to stay a certain vivacity of mind through relaxing the body. It's more like a state of mild intoxication, than falling asleep - as if tired, and then a little drunk - the body becomes weightless, thoughts fly away, the head light and even a little dizzy at first, but I felt so good that nothing more is desirable. The first 20 grams of alcohol in any alcoholic drink cause a similar condition, so we have so many alcoholics in the opinion of some researchers)))
No need to be afraid to get too deep or worry about the fact that you will not be able to get out of it - the target state of the session is the basic level of alpha-relaxation in which the body activates the process of recovery, healing and purification. In any case the alpha will not last long - by itself, this condition is extremely difficult to keep (especially with the habit), you can even say that it is not natural for the body of modern man - we have forgotten to relax. Often it is enough just to open eyes to climb in the beta. Even if something goes wrong, You either just fall asleep or will Wake - the worst thing that You face - the state of "not enough sleep", which is easy to remove.
A better position to use sedentary (so less likely to fall asleep), clothing should be comfortable and loose (as soon as you begin to relax any pressure on the body will increase almost by an order of magnitude in the initial stages is that to get, TO HEADPHONES, TOO), and the body free from internal stimuli (a headache, aching tooth, turns the stomach or need to run-small - it is better to give than to lean hard on the alpha - in the beginning very simple to associate feeling unwell and sessions with MM, then each lesson will be remembered).<
