meditation

I ran into this by accident and tried it. It’s Tibetan bowls. I put on head phones, closed my eyes and listened for the full hour. It’s beautiful! It honestly felt amazing. My whole body calmed down. I’m going to try this on a regular basis. Then I looked up what singing bowls do for you and...

A video Dr. Brad Fanestil posted yesterday. At around 3 min: "The conscious mind process about 40 bits of information per second. The subconscious mind process 11 million." EDIT---- Forgot to post the video :cool:

Hi I have a few questions for those who might be able to shed their light please. 1. We are not our thoughts and I know that now after a life time of believing every thought. I want to practice mindfulness and observe the thoughts but not give into them. Which book would help in grasping this...

Hey guys, I have read a lot the last few months. A lot of books, videos and movies about TMS. Everything I could find about Sarno, his lectures, movies etc. I am convinced that my problems come from TMS. In the last few months, when I let my mind deviate from this thought, and I try a more...

An easy read, in a true/false myth-busting format. For example: meditation is not the same as mindfulness, but rather a formal practice of mindfulness. And that No, mindfulness is "not easy, but it is simple"(which is also my essential take on TMS). Additional topics: breathing; mindfulness...

I have this specific practice I wanted to share about and see if it resonated with others. I stumbled into it while trying energy healing (as a lifelong skeptic). Does anyone else do anything similar? Do you agree with my assessment of how it works? I refer to it as emotional release...

Hi there, I used the TMS approach to recover from CFS, IBS and PoTs before I knew about Sarno, this terminology or the links between chronic pain and chronic fatigue. As part of this, I used hypnosis to recover. I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has used hypnosis as part of their...

Some interesting information about distraction. 47% of people (result of some studies) are distracted at any given time. No data was taken of distraction before computers and smart phones. Distraction keeps us from being happy, and satisfied by taking our mind away from the moment. We may go...

8 HOURS Burning Fireplace & Crackling Fire Sounds, Deep Sleep, Cozy Fireplace

In July of 2017, I woke up one Saturday morning, rolled over and my back completely seized up, paralyzing my legs and torso. On a pain scale of one to ten, it was a twenty… worse than anything I had ever felt, including childbirth. I was terrified as I tried in vain to move or get up. I called...

Here is another interesting study on the subject. Conclusion, as they diplomatically put it: meditation is "noninferior to escitalopram for the treatment of anxiety". https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/article-abstract/2798510 (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction vs Escitalopram...
