Holosync and overwhelm

[Garuda]

I am quite amazed when people here metion they are on AL3 and beyond, you must be super gurus at dealing with stress, I don't see myself reaching that level in quite some time, that's ok though, easy does it.

I took a 2 month + break from holosync after completing AL1 CD1. 3 days ago I started up again (on the same AL CD1) and my entire body energy feels like its in contradiction. I am feeling ALOT of anger and it's clouding my judgement.

I like the Abraham-hicks analogy of hitting a tree at 5 mph vs hitting it at 50 mph. Holosync definitely takes me to 50 mph and I am so feeling the trees. I don't see how its worth stressing my body and others around me if I am not going to be more conscious in addressing to the increased stressors.

I have decided that I will take it slow. I am going to meditate vipassana style and prepave before I use the HS CDs. Also I plan on 1day on 1day off.

Anyone else have to regulate their HS usage in a similar way?

Hi Garuda,

I've regulated my h/s use a few times. I have switched from morning, to night and now I do the eve shift! When on the same cd as you I experienced a lot of overwhelm. I like your analogy of things being sped up so that it feels like you hit the trees at 50 mph rather than the more pedestrian 5mph. It was like that for me, I felt like things were happening too fast and I was losing control and could stir myself by my usual methods. I was a difficult period. I gave up h/s for 10 days and let go of pushing myself and being a typical type A personality. In those ten days, I had fun, laughed, did the things that I loved and began practising mindfulness meditation again. (had stopped to h/s instead). Then I began using h/s every other day-like you. I did this for about a week until I felt the overwhelm had passed. It worked and I haven't experienced such intense o/w since.

I agree with what has been said. Listen to yourself and find your own way of dealing with what h/s brings up. It isn't a race. You might have more insights and growth from this period of upheavel than deeper levels. Take what comes and be kind to yourself.

Kindest regards

Garuda,

Everybody has made some great suggestions! In addition try switching/rotating the "Making Changes Easy" CD with your regular level.

I found this to be very complimentary and supportive when I was going through a long rough patch.It worked fantastically for me and I was able to get relief from the feelings I was experiencing.

The good news is once you are through this temporary situation, you are at a much higher level than ever before and will feel great. That's what happened to me.

I am on Meditation Solution Level 3 (which is equivalent to AL3) and I have never had any real occurrence of overwhelm that I know of. Up until recently. I have been on AL3 for four months now and was considering moving to AL4 but my last 4 sessions might make me rethink that. During each of these last four sessions I've had alot of negative and angry chatter in my brain. I find my mind wandering to some things that result in me becoming angry inside. In fact, some of the things I've been angry at are things that I've formulated in my mind that never even happened. For example, I might think of someone or some event that I dont' like and then my mind wanders and before you know it I've concocted some event in my head that results in me becoming really angry inside. I cant' say I've been under alot of stress lately because I usually handle stress pretty well because I just let it be. My wife has been irritating the heck out of me lately for reasons I won't go into here so perhaps some of the pent up anger is due in part to that. But usually my sessions are very enjoyable and in fact are the best part of my day. I could be overdoing the meditation sessions because at night I like to unwind by doing some other BWE programs that I have and maybe it's just too much. I dont' really know what is going on since this hasn't happened to me in the 2.5 years I"ve been meditating.

I dont' mean to hijack your post Garuda but I found a similarity in what you were going thru and what I am going thru at the moment and I thought any feedback to my situation might be helpful to you also. I apologize if that is not the case.

I second with GWW's statement. If I miss session(s), I experience overwhelm...till I get back to track. Last week, I have moved to PL1, having trouble finishing even the 30mins dive session, few days, I have to stop in the middle, but it is getting better now...
