by Peebrain
I held this "warm-up" before annie's shielding seminar and thought the log might help some people. There was some minor editing just to improve readability. This really wasn't a "seminar" or anything, just sort of a get together and warm-up to make sure everyone was on the same page.
[19:21] <peebrain> ok, I'd prefer to not moderate the channel, and I hope I can trust you guys to not carry on side conversations
[19:21] <pyromaniac123> yeah
[19:21] <Savant> no problem.
[19:21] <Confuzed> Can't you just tell us to shut up?
[19:21] <tim93> allright
[19:21] <tim93> shut up
[19:21] <hyperion2> will do
[19:21] <peebrain> so, if everyone can just chill, and not but in with random comments "lols" and stuff like that, that'd be cool
[19:22] <peebrain> awesome :-)
[19:22] <Savant> Yessir.
[19:22] <pyromaniac123> shhhh
[19:22] <peebrain> ok, there are a few things required before you can shield
[19:22] <peebrain> basically speaking, you just have to be able to move and program psi
[19:23] <peebrain> now, let's have some fun
[19:23] <peebrain> multiple choice:
[19:23] <peebrain> what is the most common way to begin moving psi?
[19:23] <peebrain> 1. dancing around in circles
[19:23] <peebrain> 2. alligator wrestling
[19:23] <peebrain> 3. psi balls
[19:23] <peebrain> or 4. swimming
[19:23] <hyperion2> 3
[19:23] <abnormal989> 2
[19:23] <Savant> 3
[19:23] <tim93> psi balls
[19:23] <TKJay> 2
[19:23] <Confuzed> 3
[19:23] <peebrain> yay!
[19:23] <peebrain> 3!
[19:23] <pyromaniac123> 3
[19:23] <ColdSong> 3
[19:23] <peebrain> hehe
[19:23] <ColdFusion> i'm not sure
[19:23] <jaci> 3
[19:23] <Droshi> 3
[19:23] <HiYa> I'll go with 3
[19:23] <HiYa> :p
[19:24] <CleanOldMan> 3
[19:24] <Strata> 1
[19:24] <tim93> i can swim anytime. and i aint wrestling alligators
[19:24] <peebrain> heh
[19:24] <peebrain> ok
[19:24] <peebrain> moving on
[19:24] <peebrain> has anyone here NOT made a psi ball before?
[19:24] <Bshwa> me...
[19:24] <Confuzed> PICK ME
[19:24] <Telekinex_Man> Me.
[19:24] <peebrain> ooh, we got a few
[19:24] * Confuzed raises hand in shame...
[19:24] <pyromaniac123> i can but it is hard
[19:24] <CleanOldMan> *I didn't*
[19:24] <pyromaniac123> and i don't usemy own energy
[19:25] <tim93> wow, thats odd, that was the first thing i did.
[19:25] <Savant> Hmmm...I'm sure I have, but it's hard...unless excited.
[19:25] <hyperion2> I've "Gathered" energy
[19:25] <Bshwa> i try but when i visualize .. i start to run away with thoughts
[19:25] <peebrain> ok, so to be complete, I'll step us through a basic psi ball making procedure
[19:25] <tim93> goody
[19:25] <pyromaniac123> awesome
[19:25] <Savant> nice >_o
[19:25] <peebrain> everyone who hasn't made a psi ball, try along with it, all the others can just surf the web or something to waste time until the seminar ;-)
[19:25] <Confuzed> fUNKtASTIC
[19:25] <Confuzed> you rock peebrain!
[19:26] <peebrain> heh thanks
[19:26] <peebrain> BUT
[19:26] <peebrain> let's get to work
[19:26] <tim93> ill stay anyway
[19:26] <abnormal989> of course he does
[19:26] <TKJay> is the rest of the warm up going to be psiballs?
[19:26] <abnormal989> hes peebs
[19:26] * peebrain sets mode: +m
[19:26] <peebrain> ok
[19:26] <peebrain> step 1. relax!
[19:26] <peebrain> FUCKING RELAX ALREADY!
[19:26] <peebrain> whoa whoa whoa
[19:26] <peebrain> ...ok
[19:26] <peebrain> breathe in and out
[19:26] <peebrain> try to just chill
[19:27] <peebrain> you don't want your heart going nuts or anything, you want to just be hanging out, sort of zoning out
[19:27] <peebrain> but don't go overboard - you want to keep a focused mind - but you don't want your mind to be racing
[19:27] * peebrain sets mode: -m
[19:27] <peebrain> any questions about the relaxed state?
[19:27] <pyromaniac123> nope
[19:27] <Telekinex_Man> No
[19:27] <Savant> not really.
[19:27] <CleanOldMan> no
[19:27] <Confuzed> Umm I just listened to hemi sync music for an hour hope that will help...
[19:28] <stony> I'm kinda late, it's hard with a broken toe... Relaxing now......
[19:28] <Bshwa> is it ok to have thoughts while relaxing?
[19:28] <peebrain> ok cool, everyone breathe in and out, maybe put on some relaxing tunes like red hot chili peppers or something
[19:28] <tim93> stick the toungue to the roof of your mouth, breath in through the nose and out throught
[19:28] <peebrain> yeah, thoughts are fine
[19:28] <tim93> through the mouth
[19:28] <CleanOldMan> rhcp great!!!
[19:28] <Telekinex_Man> I love the Chile Peppers.
[19:28] <peebrain> this isn't deep meditation or anything, just your basic "hang out relaxed" state
[19:28] * peebrain sets mode: +m
[19:29] <peebrain> ok while breathing in and out, and relaxing, start to visualize psi forming in your stomach
[19:29] <peebrain> right in your ab region, like your belly button etc...
[19:29] <peebrain> maybe a little higher than your belly button :-P
[19:29] <peebrain> so, now the question is:
[19:29] <peebrain> 1. what is visualization?
[19:29] <peebrain> 'voice stony
[19:29] * ChanOP sets mode: +v stony
[19:29] <peebrain> stony, what is your definition of visualization?
[19:30] <peebrain> (is stony here? :-P)
[19:30] <stony> I'm here
[19:30] <peebrain> ok cool, when I say "visualize psi", what do you do?
[19:31] <stony> Visualization: Any kind of picture or thought of glowing blue orbs moving and swirling, making a kind of water rippling type thing
[19:31] <peebrain> 'devoice stony
[19:31] * ChanOP sets mode: -v stony
[19:31] <peebrain> cool
[19:31] <peebrain> that's a good visualization
[19:31] <peebrain> visualization is basically just picturing something in your head
[19:31] <peebrain> some people like to close their eyes to visualize so they don't become distracted by other stuff
[19:31] <peebrain> some do it with their eyes open
[19:31] <peebrain> it doesn't matter - do what works for you
[19:31] <peebrain> try both
[19:31] * peebrain sets mode: -m
[19:32] <abnormal989> chilli peppers!
[19:32] <abnormal989> wooh!
[19:32] <peebrain> ok, so now everyone is visualizing psi forming in their abs?
[19:32] <peebrain> 'kick abnormal989
[19:32] * abnormal989 was kicked by ChanOP ([peebrain] User Kick requested)
[19:32] <tim93> yeah
[19:32] <Bshwa> trying to
[19:32] <Mannen> Yes.
[19:32] <Confuzed> Ya, I'm too fat too though... does that matter : )
[19:32] * abnormal989 has joined #projection
[19:32] <Savant> Yes.
[19:32] <Sawyer_Hickory> Yes.
[19:32] <hyperion2> yes
[19:32] <Telekinex_Man> Yes
[19:32] <stony> Oh here's a small tip: If you try to taste, smell and feel the energy, all the sences will help you
[19:32] <CleanOldMan> jou
[19:32] <peebrain> in one line, try to describe what you feel in your abs, if anything... try not to span what you feel over multiple lines just because there is a lot of people here
[19:32] <stony> And yes I am picturing it :D
[19:32] <Lance> what does psi smell like?
[19:32] <tim93> energy
[19:33] <peebrain> no questions yet, please
[19:33] <peebrain> we'll get to that
[19:33] <pyromaniac123> jut a kinda like woha feeling
[19:33] <Confuzed> Nothing!!! : (
[19:33] <Savant> A strange well of force.
[19:33] <jaci> energy
[19:33] <Mannen> A slight pressure and tingling.
[19:33] <Droshi> it feels like a tingling solid mass that moves with thought
[19:33] <tim93> like magnets at same poles
[19:33] <ColdSong> Warmth and presure
[19:33] <hyperion2> feels pleasant
[19:33] <Sawyer_Hickory> Really light heartburn, kind of.
[19:33] <abnormal989> like a sick stomach
[19:33] <Savant> ditto @ coldsong, sort of...
[19:33] <peebrain> don't aim for your heart :-)
[19:33] <Savant> lol
[19:33] <Savant> sorry.
[19:34] <peebrain> ok cool
[19:34] <stony> A moving pressure, with variations in temperature and pressures.
[19:34] <peebrain> most people seem to be on the right track
[19:34] <Confuzed> I think I might have just felt something
[19:34] <peebrain> Confuzed is feeling nothing
[19:34] <Confuzed> : ((((
[19:34] <Sawyer_Hickory> No, I just mean the sensation is the same, not that it's there.
[19:34] <Bshwa> feel the sick to the stomach one
[19:34] * peebrain sets mode: +m
[19:34] <peebrain> ok, confuzed, try to close your eyes for a minute or so, and just focus on visualizing the energy forming in your abs
[19:34] <peebrain> and stay relaxed
[19:34] <peebrain> always stay relaxed
[19:35] <peebrain> don't get frustrated (even though that's hard sometimes)
[19:35] <peebrain> don't spaz out
[19:35] <peebrain> just let it flow, try to see it, as stony suggested, try to use your other senses too
[19:35] <peebrain> try to feel it, try to hear it, try to smell (?) it
[19:35] <peebrain> what's left?
[19:35] <peebrain> taste?
[19:35] <peebrain> ignore taste
[19:35] <peebrain> :-P
[19:35] <peebrain> hearing is a good one though
[19:36] <peebrain> I personally like to "hear" it spark and fizzle as it's forming inside of me, like electricity
[19:36] * peebrain sets mode: -m
[19:36] <peebrain> Confuzed, feel anything? yes, no?
[19:36] <Confuzed> sorry.
[19:36] <tim93> ooh, hearing makes it stronger
[19:36] <Telekinex_Man> What if it gets hard to breath?
[19:36] <Confuzed> Not yet
[19:36] <hyperion2> not much
[19:36] <pyromaniac123> i think i might have made uo my feeling
[19:36] <peebrain> Telekinex - just relax, don't go nuts or anything
[19:36] <Confuzed> but thats ok I understand because I have only been trying for 2 days
[19:36] <tim93> your focusing to hard tele
[19:37] <stony> telekinex: if it becomes hard to function take a breather
[19:37] <peebrain> Confuzed - that's cool, keep listening and trying the next instructions, you may feel it further down the line
[19:37] <peebrain> but let's move on
[19:37] <Confuzed> Ya I sometimes feel it in my fingers : )
[19:37] <peebrain> so most people here have this psi stuff pooling in your abs
[19:38] <peebrain> keep it there, keep visualizing it, watch it swirl, hear it zip around
[19:38] <peebrain> now what you're going to do is just move that feeling through your body a little
[19:38] <peebrain> move it up to your chest
[19:38] <peebrain> (right now :-P)
[19:38] <peebrain> breathe in and out slowly
[19:38] <peebrain> stay relaxed
[19:38] <abnormal989> i feel it my breat area
[19:38] <abnormal989> breast..hehehe
[19:38] <peebrain> cool, perfect
[19:39] <abnormal989> sorr
[19:39] <Confuzed> I feel preasure in my chest!
[19:39] <Confuzed> (Well i DID)
[19:39] <Telekinex_Man> I don't feel anything.
[19:39] <peebrain> Tele - do you feel it in your abs?
[19:39] <stony> A slight tingle in the lower back, and a nice cool feeling towards my lung area. (AKA what I normally feel :-\)
[19:39] <Savant> I think I can feel it around my lungs.
[19:39] <Sawyer_Hickory> Is it supposed to tighten up? That's what I'm getting.
[19:39] <pyromaniac123> i don't feel anything so i;m laving and praticing bye myself
[19:39] <Savant> I'm trying to contain/focus though.
[19:39] <peebrain> if it tightens up, just try to relax
[19:39] <Confuzed> Same here hickory stick
[19:40] <peebrain> keep the energy flowing around
[19:40] <peebrain> keep it free
[19:40] <Telekinex_Man> Yes, and then when I start movng it up it gets harder and harder to breath.
[19:40] <tim93> youre getting to excited
[19:40] <abnormal989> dont strain yourself
[19:40] <Pixie1> same here telekinex
[19:40] <peebrain> ok, Tele, for you then I would try moving it outside your body, but we'll get to that
[19:40] <stony> Tele: just stop for a second relax and chill. (Whit, that's sean's department...)
[19:40] * peebrain sets mode: +m
[19:40] <peebrain> ok
[19:41] <peebrain> so up until now we've all been visualizing this psi stuff moving around
[19:41] <peebrain> visualization is a great tool, and it works most of the time, but after a while you might start to move psi around just by willing it to go to different places
[19:41] <peebrain> so, for those of you that want to try, you guys can try moving the psi around using just your willpower
[19:41] <peebrain> and skipping the visualization
[19:42] <peebrain> now, if you have trouble getting psi to move around in the first place, it might not be a good idea to skip the visualization, but hey, you might be better without visualizing
[19:42] <peebrain> so give it a try
[19:42] <peebrain> it might not work, it might work awesome
[19:42] <peebrain> you'll find that in most of psionics, it's basically a "figure out your own method"-type of thing
[19:42] <peebrain> do what works for you
[19:42] * peebrain sets mode: -m
[19:43] <peebrain> if anyone wants to type some of their results, feel free, try not to clutter the chat though
[19:43] <tim93> not visualizing works for me
[19:43] <Confuzed> Peebrain - is it ok my elbows are on the armrest?
[19:43] <peebrain> Confuzed- yeah, that's fine
[19:43] <abnormal989> i think this is the most psi ive gathered
[19:43] <tim93> do whats comfortable.
[19:43] <Confuzed> My results- tightening in chest and when i try to move it down the arms it seems as though the tightening is less or whatever...
[19:43] <Lance> even if ive been doing psi movign for 3 years, is it still benefical to visualize?
[19:44] <stony> I've found over the years that as you become fluent in psi, It comes without visualization. However, Using visualization makes the psi more productive.
[19:44] <abnormal989> its all the way upto my chest form my sternum
[19:44] <Arekuruu> um im just got here if any body wants to could you what i missed
[19:44] <Confuzed> Abnormal- same here
[19:44] <hyperion2> do you need to feel anything? cause I dont feel much
[19:44] <peebrain> Lance - do what works for you, usually I skip visualization because I've done it for so long, but I still use it now and then too
[19:44] <Sawyer_Hickory> I need the visual to get anything accomplished.
[19:44] <tim93> i visualize at first, then move it at my will
[19:45] <Bshwa> well my arms feel heavier and i feel a coolin sensation in my right hand
[19:45] <stony> Lance: right arond now in your years, the psi will flow to just willpower
[19:45] <Pixie1> i take the energy from an external source, say the earth, to not exhaust myself... i feel its much easier to collect the energy _directly_ from the source and into the hands and the psiball rather than going trough the sternum and stuff.... is that..
[19:45] <TKJay> magnetic pull in and out like always
[19:45] <Confuzed> Lol about to say that ^^^
[19:45] <jaci> Arekuru do you want me to copy it and message it to you
[19:45] <hyperion2> I am getting tired....is that normal?
[19:45] <Arekuruu> yes please
[19:45] <tim93> tk jay, visualise a different form of energy, like fire, or cool mist
[19:46] <stony> hyperion: It can be if your not used to it.
[19:46] <peebrain> hyperion - some get tired their first couple times
[19:46] * peebrain sets mode: +m
[19:46] <peebrain> ok cool, now that most of us have the general idea on how to move psi around inside our body, we're going to take it another step
[19:46] <peebrain> to make a psi ball, we're going to move the psi from our abs, up our chest, and split it up and move it down both of our arms
[19:47] <peebrain> when it gets to the hands, we want the psi to shoot out, and (while having our hands together), have the psi mix into a ball outside of our body
[19:47] <peebrain> now, for those of you who were experiencing pain, I would suggest moving the psi from your abs, to outside of your body, to inbetween your hands
[19:48] <peebrain> same thing, different route
[19:48] <peebrain> it's good for beginners to move psi in their body just because it's good to get a feel for it
[19:48] <peebrain> so, hopefully, most of you are shooting psi into a ball between your hands
[19:48] * peebrain sets mode: -m
[19:48] <Droshi> also you can try manipulation with one or no hands, sometimes it works better for me
[19:49] <peebrain> if you want to pull your hands away and type your results, feel free, but like I said before, please don't clutter the chat
[19:49] <jaci> sorry arekuru couldn't get it to work
[19:49] <Bshwa> is it ok to feel like your hand is pulsating?/
[19:49] <Confuzed> Peebrain - I can't seem to get it moving through my arms
[19:49] <Lance> i use one hand for the ball and one for that chat
[19:49] <Arekuruu> oh ok
[19:49] <tim93> i can change the temperature at my will. is that normal?
[19:49] <TKJay> magnetic like always :)
[19:49] <peebrain> as Droshi and Lance have said, it's very possible to use two, one, or neither hand
[19:49] <Confuzed> time93 - ya I guess
[19:49] <hyperion2> peebs may I PM you something I read in a book? it might be helpful in making psiballs or sensing them
[19:50] <peebrain> sure hyperion
[19:50] <peebrain> ok, so at this point, most of us have a psi ball in our hands
[19:50] <Confuzed> Not me : (((
[19:50] <StarCatcher> I can't move the psi out of my hands
[19:50] <peebrain> now comes the next important thing that is required before learning to shield: programming
[19:50] <Droshi> mines on the counter lol
[19:51] <peebrain> Confuzed - just gotta keep practicing, give it some time to mess around with
[19:51] <tim93> i can let go, and then grab mine again
[19:51] <peebrain> but everyone else, we'll move on to programming
[19:51] <Confuzed> Peebrain - holy crap that was the first time I felt it go to my hand from my elbow
[19:51] * _Triocalas|TP quickly creates psiball
[19:51] <Telekinex_Man> What if your heart rate increases alot?
[19:52] <peebrain> Telekinex - gotta relax dude
[19:52] <peebrain> ok, hyperion brought up a different technique
[19:52] <Confuzed> I can't seem to get it out of my hands pee brain
[19:52] <peebrain> I personally don't like it, but some of you guys might want to give it a try
[19:52] <Lance> your virculating blood to make up for the nutrients used during psi generation
[19:52] <Lance> *circulating
[19:52] <Metsruler2189> is this the warmup
[19:52] <Confuzed> ya
[19:52] <Metsruler2189> ?
[19:52] <peebrain> the idea is basically the same as everything else mentioned, except you rub your hands together for 15 seconds
[19:52] <Metsruler2189> ok
[19:52] * peebrain sets mode: +m
[19:53] <peebrain> ok, so if you guys want to try something new, you might want to try rubbing your hands together for a little bit, then trying to make a psi ball
[19:53] <peebrain> this stimulates your nerves
[19:53] <peebrain> or at least, that's the idea
[19:53] <peebrain> personally, I don't like doing it, because I don't know whether it's STIMULATING the nerves or TRICKING the nerves ;-)
[19:53] <peebrain> but hey, mess around, maybe you'll like it
[19:54] <peebrain> moving onto programming
[19:54] <peebrain> programming is critical in making a shield
[19:54] <peebrain> (what is a shield? for right now, it's a big psi ball, but annie will go into more depth ;-P)
[19:54] <peebrain> so, how do we program?
[19:54] <peebrain> well, this might come as a little shock, but you already DID program the psi
[19:54] <peebrain> *gasp*!!!
[19:55] <peebrain> how did you do it?
[19:55] <peebrain> the big V word
[19:55] <peebrain> Visualization
[19:55] <peebrain> as I think tim mentioned, he made it cold, and warm
[19:55] <peebrain> through visualization, you can program the psi to do a bunch of cool things
[19:55] <peebrain> tim made it cold at one point, and then warm at another point
[19:55] <peebrain> 'voice tim93
[19:55] * ChanOP sets mode: +v tim93
[19:56] <peebrain> tim, you were the one who said that, right?
[19:56] <tim93> yeah
[19:56] <peebrain> so, how did you do it, personally?
[19:57] <tim93> well, first i thought of changing what i saw in the psi energy. i saw a cold mist when i made it cold, and a fire when i made it hot. i also slowed down the process for cold and sped up for hot
[19:57] <peebrain> cool
[19:57] <peebrain> 'devoice tim93
[19:57] * ChanOP sets mode: -v tim93
[19:57] <peebrain> so what did he do?
[19:57] <peebrain> he just changed his visualization
[19:57] <peebrain> changing your visualization changes the programming
[19:57] <peebrain> very simple stuff
[19:57] <peebrain> simple to try, but it might take a while for your body to get it
[19:58] <peebrain> all this is is just picturing stuff in your head, and your body makes it happen
[19:58] <peebrain> so, want a hot psi ball?
[19:58] <peebrain> visualize fire
[19:58] <peebrain> visualize steam
[19:58] <peebrain> whatever
[19:58] <peebrain> cold one?
[19:58] <peebrain> visualize ice cubes
