"... here's a technique you can employ in a minute: inhale deeply through your nose with power, exhale, repeat until you can't stand it. Hold your breath. When you feel the rush, stop, let go, and let it unfold. You'll experience the onset of the DMT experience. With practice, you'll learn to go through the portal, without drugs except the ones produced right in your very own body."
- Zelphyr 13y agoAren't you just hyperventilating when you do this? How is hyperventilating yourself a portal to new consciousness? That sounds unintentionally negative. I'm genuinely curious.
- qwerty_asdf 13y agoWell, oxygen deprivation does get you high... That happens to be one of the main reasons why huffing volatile chemicals is so much fun.
- hosh 13y agoHe simplified things. There are some technical details like: allowing the diaphragm to expand fully, the ribs to expand, and the collar bones to expand. Other details such as: doing this while relaxed (relaxed enough to let go of volitional control over the breathing while still being aware of the movement), not forcing the breath, where you can't hear the breath. Hyperventilation, as in, nervous or panic reaction usually coincides with shallow breathing, where the diaphragm and ribs don't move much, if at all. You don't circulate much oxygen. The technique the author is talking about significantly increasing the amount of oxygen circulating in your body. Finally, the most important point. This isn't something you can dissect from the outside. You try it and experience it.
