Hello Everyone,
your comments would be much appreciated.
Needing to deal with some issues I googled and arrived at 11:11 sometimes in Sept of 2008, then have purchased the CD.
Today however had been the first day that I actually listened to Part #1 intently.
Here are some issues and questions;
1. I have not done if before because the home/neighborhood Im in is very loud, finding a quiet moment here is a job in itself, then of course that causes me to have a very broken sleeping patter, which then makes me sleep deprived most of the time. Such is life.
On top of that I may have some kind of nerve damage as certain noises irritate me badly, the loud traffic outside my window (street facing home) tend to break up my concentration badly, I get very little accomplished throughout the day and tend to have ear plugs in all the time - still hear traffic with ear plugs in.
Any suggestions on fixing this issues?
2. Today I have listened to the CD by playing it on my computer, computer runs very loud and even though I have the sound turned up to max I still hear the computer working over the sound of the voice on CD.
Does it matter if I hear the noise?
Is there a way of tuning the noises out?
3. I have never done any kind of meditation before, Ive listened to the CD
while laying on the floor with pillow and blankie, pretty comfortable but still feeling my body, aches, pains etc.
Am I doing this right?
Shall I be tuning the physical out and how?
4. Ive had an issue understanding some of the words on the CD, yes the accent is cute and the voice very soothing but Ive noticed my mind concentrated on trying to figure out what the missed words may have been a number of times.
Shall I care or shall I just go with the flow day after day during the first week?
Is there a transcript of the 3 parts so I can read the words and associate them with the words being spoken on the CD?
5. I have no problem imagining colors, rainbow, nature, bird sounds, grass, sky etc however I did not seem to be able to imagine the "touch" part. I.e. now imagine you "touch" the color red - I cant imagine "touching" a color.
Is this a problem?
Is there a way to deal with this?
Does it matter if I can /cant touch the colors?
What does that mean?
6. At some point I imagined an older man gray hair, long beard, white dress, kind of looked like biblical Moses, if that is what Moses looked like - have no idea who that may have been but when It was time to "invite" this person/image was no longer there.
What does that mean?
7. I have tried to invite a patient - myself - but I could not clearly see myself outside of my body, standing up in elevator, all I saw was a blur.
Why?
It this a problem?
What to do?
8. Then came the part that said I was on my own, LOL, you are right I was completely on my own, no one there but the feeling of being in my physical body, hearing the computer running and total blackness.
No images, total blackness, hearing the CD and noises around me.
Not knowing what to do exactly I just lied there all black in my mind and eyes seemed like.
Why?
It this a problem?
What to do?
Finally, I felt quite relaxed by the end of this session, no fear or any kind or anxiety, I felt well.
BTW Ive gone to a few of hypnosis sessions int he past but never got hypnotized.
What does that mean?
Again, everyone please comment on this thread and if you may help me understand this process more, please do so.
Thank you very much.
