Hi everyone
Some time ago I found a book on the net about "clicking the amygdala forward" and how that way you gain acces to the 90% of your brain you usually don´t use. His author was Neil Slade.
My question is about one meditation the book teaches to "click the amygdala". After a beautifull visualization about the energy of the universe, you have to send that energy to the part of the brain where your amygdalas are, and my question is about that; It would be dangerous or harming to send energy inside your brain?
I think the idea of the book is quite interesting, but, if it could damage me, I will not try it anymore.

Thanks.

Just an opinion, You have energy in the brain... what you are asking is tantamount to asking if you can overdose on water. I would say go for it, but be careful of the third eye center, and the crown center, as too much could create an imbalance which could change your psychosis if you are not an expert energy worker.

You can overdose on water. A women died from it and anyway thats a false analogy, electricity in your brain is a lot different from drinking water. What the person who started this thread should do is go to google, and search muscle testing. This is a technique for checking yourself by using your body. It's very helpful and you can check in gradations if what you are doing is good for you. :D

i agree. u cant overdose on water unless you pee.

Muscle testing sounds interesting; thanks. I will try.
My worries about tha amygdala cliking using energy is because once I did it a few times and after a while felt sick. Maybe this is enought signal to left that practice.

i agree. u cant overdose on water unless you pee. He said you can. Drinking too much water can be harmful because it can make the electrolytes go down and you can have a heart attack or other malfunction. And peeing is only temporary relief if you keep the water coming in. You'll pee water out and the electrolytes will continue going down, until something fails.
So you can overdose on water.
As usual, everything should be done in moderation.

With the big rave culture explosion in the nineties through to the present the first big problem was people being so high on E. that they'd forget to drink water and from dancing all night long (not the E.) they'd get really sick or die from dehydration. After there was a big hoopla bout that then pretty soon they found people drinking too much water and some people died from that!

To use almost 100% of your brain I would think takes a lifetime of meditation work. You use the most of your brain when in the deeper states like theta or delta so to consciously be in that state most of the day can only be done while meditating as as soon as you get up to walk around you will have gone back into Alpha or Beta.

I learned today about the amygdala clicking, it sounds like a very interesting technique. Anyone has tried it???
TurboCurro, if you felt sick is becasue you were clicking them the wrong way. These exercises can cause exteme pleassure or pain depending if you move them to the front or to the back. I haven't donde the exercises yet but I have read about it...

The area of the brain that I learned about from a book at http://www.freesoul.net is the septum pellucidum. It is above the limbic system and when triggered activates the limbic system including the amygdalas for you. It is easier to access and there aren't any areas you have to be careful to avoid. Hit the wrong area in the limbic system and it can make you very angry. Unlike the amygdala clicking, I actually got this to work some. It just never seemed to work as well as advertised.

[Palehorse Redivivus]

that way you gain acces to the 90% of your brain you usually don´t use.

I know this wasn't the overall point of the thread, but the idea that we only use 10% of our brains is actually a myth.

http://www.snopes.com/science/stats/10percnt.htm

IMO the issue is that we don't use all of our minds -- its that most of us only use our minds in an inefficient, unfocused and undisciplined way, full of internal conflict, contradictions, mental chatter and so forth. When we work on all those things, we start utilizing more of our full potential.

I do know, however, that doing things with energy in the physical brain can produce real effects. At one point a few years ago I had the idea to do some energy bouncing in a zigzagging motion from the front of my skull to the back, and back again. I'm not sure exactly what I accomplished, but I ended up with a headache that lasted several days. Was just about to get that checked out, when it stopped. I may have cleared out some stagnant energetic cobwebs, or I may have just scrambled my own circuits, heh... but luckily there were no further negative effects as far as I know.

*twitch* :P

So, I would say that if you're going to be bouncing any energy around in your brain, be careful.

There is a book I've avoided reading called "Brain Respiration" about drawing energy into the brain. I just mention having seen it - I"m not suggesting it. I can't, having not read it. It is about drawing energy into the brain, hopefully safely.

I had a neuro-psych professor who said the 10% is a myth, the truth is we use 100% of the brain, but they only know what that 10% is used for.....

I also read Neil's book, it said it can take up to 5 years for a full blown amygdala click.....but the effects are cumulative, so it's worth keeping at it...

[Korpo]

Just some - maybe moot - points.

It's true - too much water can kill you, because it dilutes the electrolytes. Unless you have some way to replace them this will kill you after a certain threshold. That's why long range runners don't drink normal water on runs.

The 10% thing really is a myth, in fact our physical brain works in accordance with holographic effects in many respects - so the parts usually contain the whole, except for some specialised brain centers that again work on the same principles within themselbes. You still will be able to recognise things you see when you lose parts of the corresponding brain center, but your ability degrade, and lost if the brain center is lost. Memories usually come as patterns allover the brain. You use all of your brain all the time.

Brain energy work is more risky than any other kind of energy work and least understood. It is usually reserved for the higher stages of work, and energising the brain is hard to do correctly. Usually one is better off if he or she tries to make the body healthy to supply plenty of energy to the brain instead of working on the brain itself. This works because the brain is the biggest resource consumer in our system, and if we improve the system the brain will benefit as well. So whole-body energy work and enough sleep (when neurons recover) are a very good strategy. Also repair any bodily damage and tension to reduce strain on the nervous system.

The problem about brain energy work it is too easy to make something go wrong and too hard to make it go right again. I have a private email conversation with a email pen pal who now has brain center trouble because of a sh*tty meditation teacher who disturbed people deep into their meditation. That startling gave him something to remember for years now...

So, if something is going wrong there who are you going to turn to? It's hard to find someone who know enough about brain work and that can teach/heal you. Brain energising techniques are medium techniques in what I do, and brain center manipulation is very high level and should be studied with a master.

Just my 2 cents.

Take good care,
Oliver

Did I experience the, uh, "amygdala click?"

[tea and oranges]

How could you stimulate the area of the septum pellucidum? I have read Neil Slade´s book on amygdala clicking, and would like try this as well.

u cant overdose on water unless you pee.

The water will still be cycling through your system, even if you don't open the reservoir that holds the cycled water. When you pee you're not flushing the fluid from your body. You're just emptying the bladder that contains fluid that has already been through your system and is ready to go out.

(What a fascinating thread ;))

[orygbus]

it's a combination of how much you drink and how fast you drink it...too much too fast and it's called "water posioning" because it dilutes the potasium, it's a big issue in college because someone dies that way within the past year or so....drinking a lot of water over a period of time is not dangerous....you can only absorb about 8oz. of water within a 15 minute period (long distance runners know this, that's why they need special water/liquids), the rest goes straight to the urinary system, a hormone (forgot the name) is than release into the body telling it to increase the urinary process to get rid of the excess water.....

ithe rest goes straight to the urinary system, a hormone (forgot the name) is than release into the body telling it to increase the urinary process to get rid of the excess water.....

Yes, but you don't get less potassium dilution if you hold it and don't pee. That was the only point I was making. ;)
