Hi,
Here is an excercise. Take to fingers
from each hand, they must point to each-
other en just make contact.
If you wach little over your fingers, not
focussing but relaxing your eyes, you
will see a third sort of finger.
It looks like a cocktail snack.
Why is this interesting ?, well because
you forget that the sub-concious is still
aware of the normal fingers.
The same happens when you walk in the
streets, you "don't" focus, but you can
find your way, you don't look at details, you don't even listen to all the sound.
Its because your sub-concious is allway's
working. In fact, your sub-concious is
aware of all the details in the streets, in
the citty. Under hypnosis you would be able to tell how a house looked or what
kind of color a house had etc...
Why is that interesting ?
Well, because they use the finger exercise to demonstrate the way to use
your eyes in photo-reading. This is a
form of speed-reading.
If you take a book and look little over the
top of it, middle of two pages, you will
see (like the fingers) a third line or page.
But the letters from both pages are not
in detail sinds you do not focus on them.
They become like a grey mass.
But the sub-concious has seen the letters
and therefore it is in your memory.
Photo-readers learn to relax, not focus
and to look at the top of a book.
Then they "scan" quickly all the pages.
Then they need some time to let it rest,
and then they must activate "the informa-
tion (recalling).
Unlike other speed-reading programs
they don't read the pages with there eyes
but are sub-concious aware of the infor-
mation (like the houses in the street).
You won't believe the scores they have.
(how manny words or pages they can
scan ad recall).
Photo reading (paul scheele). you can find it on the web, use speed-reading
or photo-reading for searching.
regards
Frans

Subject: Re: [buildcheapeeg] The cheapest biofeedback device
I found that I could make both images disappear entirely too. forgot to
mention that one. Haven't tried it recently though, I think I am out of
practice.
I think that it is relatively easy to do(as compared to willing your whole
vision to blank, or making an object you are focused on not be visible) just
because the brain as a whole can put together the image behind the object
without seeing the object and without any holes in vision.
I would think that making both images appear solid at once, or making both
disappear, or even just making them both appear with the same solidity(that
one, for me anyways, is easiest) are good excercises for getting the sides
of the brain to work together simultaneously, meaning neither is really
dominant over the other. Any other thoughts on this?
