Subject: Vintage computers and hypnotic induction, etc. (was: OFF-TOPIC...)
Ouch! Sorry to hear that happened to you, it must not
have been much
fun. :-( Still doesn't seem like an excuse for foul language,
however.
The foul language wasn't for the pain (well, partly it was). It was mostly
to get the attention of the brain-dead kid that walked over the platform in
his own little world.
On the other hand, I do agree partially with something
that someone
said about it being healthier to let out a holler (doesn't have to be
gutteral language, however). Let out a blood curdling howl if you
must, it really is healthy, and there is evidence to support the fact
that it does help to decrease pain, and hence stress...
Oh, I agree... I scream all the time ;) Not at people, just general
stress-reducing screams...
but then, so
does hypnotism (including self-hypnois) and going into a meditative
trance.
I do that too... see www.sahajayoga.org <- the method that I use.
...and what piece of vintage computer equipment can
you take along
running some sort of software that can help a beginner go into a
trance state?
Check out that website that I mentioned. There's an audio file with
instructions. .RA, but oh well.
