Re: Static with no warm-up

Hi Tyler,

From my perspective and self-awareness of what I am doing while I do sub-neutral breathing it is equivalent to lying on the couch and reading a book. Calling it "sub-neutral" highlights the fact that it is not "ventilation" for other people who are wanting to know what I'm doing. But perhaps to be more accurate I should call it, "a state of resting my chin on my hands, mouth closed, eyes closed, letting my thoughts wander, being dimly aware of sounds and sensations around me, and vaguely aware of some air moving in and out of my nose." I don't count the number, frequency, or duration of breaths.

HI Jason,

I noticed Tom letting air out during his static as well. But I wonder if that is just from not using a nose-clip? I tried doing a static without a noseclip and found that tiny bubbles escaped regardless of my efforts to prevent them. I imagine with contractions, even more bubbles would escape.

Merry Christmas and happy Diwali!

Pete
