WHAT THE FUCK, MEDITATION IS REAL???

>>34418263
You don't really need the sounds. Meditation is really just a way to focus on something else for a while and get your mind into some other place.

Even try it just closing your eyes and focusing on your breathing. I remember Limmy always goes on about that shit helping his stress and depression.

I've never heard of that happening. Weirdest meditation experience for me was when I forgot to set a timer and ended up meditating for like 20 extra minutes. I was actually so utterly calm it was like I was fucking high or something. Really cool experience, but 40 minute meditation sessions are a bit much

Has meditation actually had any tangible positive effects on any of you bots?

>>34418473
Pineal gland regulates produces melatonin, which regulates sleep.

Damn this dude really took the zenpill hard

>>34418594
I used to meditate semi-regularly and it helped me a lot with my anxiety

>>34418263
Hey I have an issue that is sort of related to this. It should go on /x/ but I'll put it here. I tried one of those meme succubus summoning rituals a few nights ago not expecting it to work. However my body went all warm and tingly, sort of like energy, and I got a raging boner. It was a very weird feeling, got all flushed and hot. At this point I freaked out and tried to banish the feeling by repeating fuck off in my mind. I literally couldn't sleep for the rest of that night. This really freaked me out since before that I was septic and did not believe in magic at all. Was that like a self induced hypnosis or something? I didn't actually summon anything right?

>>34418736
hit me up with the ritual and I'll report back with my findings

>>34418786
I'll have a look for it. I choose it specially because it didn't require any shit like candles or bodily fluids because I did not expect it to work - it involved just repeating some stuff in your mind and some visualisations

>meditation is real?
What? Of course it is, silly. Just remember to do it for the sake of doing it and to make it a habit. Do not do it expecting an immediate result when you are feeling stressed or down or whatever.

Also be sure not to think about aliens when you meditate, or they will come to you.

It is now too late because you are thinking of aliens.

Why? what's wrong with pineal gland?

>>34418786
hey can you try out this one?

it involves inserting paper into your ass and I would like to know if it's worth it before I do that

>>34418263
meditation is a really cool form of escapism if you can do it right

>>34418473
It's too late. 'They' can see you now.

Yeah meditation is real. The binaural stuff is real too, but I don't like it. It makes me feel weird and I get really weird dreams. Just stick to meditation.

ayy lmao

I used to be scared of aliens when I was a kid. Even had a book of aliens in area 51 that freaked me the fuck out. Ever since that meme, I haven't been afraid of them anymore.

t-thanks, memes.

>all those months and this, was the answer. all that hard work was just a waste of time (other than gaining trivial koledge)

theres untapped potential in lucid dreaming, thats why i want to do it so bad to cure my anxiety, i won't tell you guys my theary because i can't trust you with that power

oh, and sorry for spelling, i'm just too intellegent

Yes and no.

Of course meditation is real. Its about finding oneness and inner peace, the psychology behind it is sound without any added spirituality tacked on. It helps tremendously with anxiety disorders, depression, and general stress. It also helps to train your mind in focusing your thoughts and experiencing new thought patterns. Be patient, relax, control your breathing, and let it flow.

Alternatively, there are methods of meditation that involve emptying your mind of all but one thought. That's called meditating on a topic. Christian monks would often meditate on concepts and scriptures. Buddhist monks meditated on ideas and paradoxes. And so on and so forth.

oh yes, and much, much more

the laws of physics aren't exacly how intellegent scientist claim it to be. There are a lot of flaws that scientists decide to ignore because they heavily cantredict how they view the universe.

thats all i'm willing to tell, you can already infer that lucid dreaming is the key.... but i am not ready to tell you exactly how to utalize it to gain these "powers"

i've already said too much.

oh and again, sorry for the spelling, i'm just too damn intelligent.

hpw do you meditate do ypu just sit and try not to think or something

>>34418263
been doing meditation (vipassana, samatha, mantra also becomes oom actually has a very special effect, look it up) for 2 years now, since 2 months I somehow start to feel everything in a porn as if it's sort of happening to me. it's weird but pretty cool. like bitch gets slapped and I feel it like a bit distanced but as if it's happening to me. same thing happened when I watched a movie and dude got his jaw punched in, made me start up

>>34419847
There are plenty of resources online.

Just focus on the breath.

In and out

In and out

And whenever your mind wanders, which it will, gently go back to the breath.

>>34418432
did you pull that out of your ass? post some scientific proof

>>34419847
basically.

i've used it during panic attecks or my autismo episodes and it brought me to a more reasonable state of mind.

you ever find yourself thrashing about at night, remembering all the mean and ad things that have happened to you? Well, it took me out of my hulk stage and made me relativly calm but you have to put in some effort to stay still for the first 5 mins, also bathrooms for some reason are the best place for me to meditate. Mabye its just the sense of privacy.

>tfw meditated for the first time in a while
>head filled with bliss
>area around the head for several inches also filled with bliss
This only happened once and I don't know how to repeat it.

>>34419491
Post the hypnosis video, I wanna try.

>>34419908
vipassana is the tits. I'd recommend it to anyone ITT with mental health issues. You can unlearn all of your bad habits through this meditation.

My son, you've ascended.

ive been trying out mindfullness meditation stuff lately. it's relaxing and calms my mind down, but it just kind of makes me feel like im half asleep, i don't really get much out of it other than that. that's all i really wanted though, something to calm my mind down.

alan watts and meditation are seemingly the only things that really ground me and keep me from completely losing my fucking mind.

Fucking Christcucks have no respect for other spiritual practices, this is why I think they're fucking trash. If 'god' doesn't want you to do these things, why are they apparently part of your body function?
>>34418432
There's no evidence the pineal gland is anything more than a part of your brain that produces melatonin and shit. There's no evidence dreams aren't just in your head.

>>34418432
The only thing dangerous in spirituality is fear.

Trust me

I don't think it's a meme. I downloaded the app Mindspace and tried a couple of the exercises and they really helped clear my mind and relax me

Asking about meditation online is a drag, you only ever get people telling you that you're doing it wrong. Good job cool result.

>Lost all sensation below the neck
You're fucked. You meditated too hard. When that happens it triggers a slow paralysis that will eventually engulf your body. You should never mess around with this shit

ASMR videos freak me the fuck out, I can't stand the noise, it creates this sense of dread and a kind of buzzing in my brain
