Spin Your Feelings!

There a technique in pop psychology for intensifying good feelings (and turning down negative ones) where you become aware of the direction the feeling is going in your body and you spin it faster and stronger.

When I'm sober I find it difficult to generate those really good feelings. I find it difficult to be aware of where the feeling is travelling in my body...

But when I'm stoned on some good grass I can't miss my good feelings... And when I spin them... WOW!!!!!

Here's the technique

1. Notice the buzz in your body... where does it start... where does it go to?

2. Start moving the feeling faster

3. Double the speed... double the intensity... double it again

4. Enjoy!

some interesting shit......even though I did not understand any of it

are you supposed to start having a seizure to intensify you're good feeling? am i too stoned for this?

You know when your stoned and you hear some good music and it gives you a good feeling? Just relax... close your eyes... slow down your breathing... become aware of your bodily sensations and you will notice them moving through your body in a certain direction... sit with that for a while until you get really deep into it. It's like all your attention is on the yummmm. You can then start to move that feeling faster by concentrating on it. Make it move to every part of your body.

I find the more stoned I am the better I can do it :smokin:

Did someone lace your blunt with liquid acid or are you just a modern day hippie? Either way, interesting outlook on how to control/enjoy your high. Right on man, right on. :jointsmile:

Derren Brown, a mentalist... magician and hypnotist uses the technique to increase feelings of motivation amongst others. He uses it in his one time show The Heist which was aired in 2006. He gets them to ramp up their motivation and aggression by spinning their feelings stronger and faster and linking it to some cues such as the colour green and a certain piece of music.

The guy is a genius and that video shows how easily everyday people can be manipulated to commit atrocities.

It seems to be a very interesting idea... i shall try it whenever i get high again.
For now, thank you very much for sharing it! :thumbsup:

Man... i tried it and... damn! It works!

When i was high, lying down and relaxed, i noticed something like this "spinning" feeling you described. For me, it felt like if there were an axis from my left to my right and i were being rotated around it... or like if i were inside a large pipe, and it were spinning very fast with me inside.

Its interesting i could clearly percieve this when i was new to smoking (and got way more stoned), but had forgotten how it felt.

Concentrating on this spinning feeling and on intensifying actually increased the high... i could almost feel the air rushing past me as i spun... it was amazing! It had been quite a while since the last time i had felt this!

I also noticed when i lost the concentration the axis around which i felt i was spinning seemed to change its place... for example, the greatest spinning feeling i felt was when the left-right axis seemed to pass through my mid-torax, near the heart... when i lost the concentration, it seemed to move to near my throat, and then to my head.

And now that im sober i cant feel any spinning at any part of the body.

Once i did read that the chakras could be considered as vortices of "energy", that spun endlessly, and that it was possible to concentrate on their spinning. So maybe thats what this technique aims for...

Anyway, its a very nice thing to do when stoned, and i recommend it for everybody!

Another thing you could try is Ideomotor Signals. Hypnotist use them to get yes/no signals from the persons unconscious mind. This is another technique I find much easier when stoned.

1. Get in touch with your other mind... the mind that regulates your heart beat and all other unconscious processes. Set up yes no signals. You can do this by maybe saying "hi other mind... make my right index finger twitch for yes and my left index finger twitch for no... if you understand then give me the yes signal"

2. Once you have a rapport with your other mind you can ask any yes/no question that your other mind will know such as "is there something important in my life that I should be aware of?" It's kinda like a game where you narrow your search until you reach the answer.

It's really that simple... you can thank your other mind if you want at the end.

Another thing you can do with ideomotor signals is to ask your other mind to rehearse a habit you want until it will happen automatically. You can ask for the yes signal when your other mind has finished.
