The first thing to know is that not everyone processes information exactly the same. You can deviate from this and still get results. I am just recreating practices and moments of realization that occurred for me. There’s lots of other helpful people and guides. 2/
I knew about mindfulness and meditation in a vague way before being a TI. People often think of meditation as just quieting the mind, but that is only one form of meditation. Meditation is simply a term for staying in the moment. Many mindfulness techniques are a form of 3/
meditation and meditation is always a form of mindfulness.
Meditation often involves sitting or laying still, but you can do walking meditation and yoga as well. There are also breathing patterns involved. A few of the most common that have helped me are 4-4-4-4, 4-7-8, and 4/

8-8-8-8. To clarify, 4-4-4-4 means inhale to a count of 4, hold your breath for a count of 4, exhale for a count of 4, hold the empty breath for a count of 4.

the first way I was able to quiet my mind. Now, your mind won’t always stay quiet, but you do your best to return your attention back to counting and breathing. Then eventually your mind can quiet again and you let your process become automatic until you need to reset again. 6/
It would take effort, but the anxiety and depression would melt away in ways that didn’t happen just with therapy, drugs, distractions, etc.

Another aspect of mindfulness that can be layered over it is the practice of acceptance. Normally when negative thoughts and emotions 7/
happen, there’s the tendency to ruminate and the initial negative thought or emotion breeds more of them. One way to break that up is to consciously and mindfully address the thought/emotion.
So if you get attacked and your thought is “these attacks will never end,” then 8/

instead of letting the thought fester, take a mental step back and mentally acknowledge it, “I just thought that these attacks will never end.” This is more neutral and you may be able to drop it right there. If it’s still affecting you, you can ask yourself “Can I accept 9/
this?” And hopefully you can answer “Yes.” If you can’t, you can ask yourself “Can I sit with this?” Then you can either give yourself permission towards acceptance by saying “yes” or you can return to your breathing and counting.

Another trick to staying in the moment is to focus on sensations within the body, document them, and mentally move on. This trick was really the start of my progress with feeling my own energy. In my initial 11/
thread, I post about a meditation/consciousness aid called The Gateway Experience. It’s a set of tapes that they examined and even used for the government’s own psychics. It involves brainwave entrainment and some other pretty neat tricks. cia.gov/readingroom/do…

However, I did not initially seek out the tapes. I just marveled at what I could learn about meditation, my body, and consciousness.

what’s called the bifurcation echo. To explain quickly, your body is constantly pumping blood throughout your body. That activity sends vibrations through your body that affect its processes. When it’s slowed down, your heart, blood flow, and brain actually synchronize. 14/
So when I first started being able to feel the flow of blood through parts of my body, it was significant in helping me tune my body to tune my brain.
Eventually this allowed me to slip into relaxed states where I could start to feel the subtle energy exuding from my body. 15/

When you get more in tune with that, you can feel how the activity of your blood flow shifts energy around your body.
Warning, it’ll all feel very subtle at first. You may even question what you are perceiving. You may doubt it, but it’s very real. 16/
