Just altered her instructions slightly. Instead of something like "Visualise a ball of light in front of you in the space between the eyebrows", she would also add that if you are unable to visualise you can think of the that ball of light as a concept or idea. I think she's just saying for me though :)
Did you just "discover" that blindness now or were you aware of it always? I just assumed everybody "visualise" in concepts so never gave it a second thought.
- NeedMoreTea 7y agoBeen aware of it for a few years since the reports of the university study started coming out. I always assumed everyone was the same too, and any prose talking of "now see that balloon, rotate it, make it bigger..." was just overblown metaphor or their inner internet marketer coming out. Which was a bit of a surprise as the other 50 years I'd never thought to query anyone about it. I asked quite a few friends when I first found out, and no doubt annoyed them with silly questions.
- harel 7y agoyeah pretty much the same here, only my 'awakening' to my blindness is not even 2 months old... Now i wonder what else I've taken for granted but is very much not so
