A first class piece of work. Thank you very much Ta-Tsu-Wa for taking the time and trouble to produce this valuable information for us all.
All best wishes,

Awesome !

Going to read it through thoroughly.

*nod* to that Edwin, it's certainly something that needs reading several times.

Thanks Ta-tsu-wa.

Thankyou Ta-Tsu-Wa for your time and effort - hopefully this will help many people understand and benefit greatly from LifeFlow and meditation. I wish you much peace and joy

wow, this took some time to read for me! Well written, and surely of interest for most of meditation beginners!

Entrainment tracks guide our brainwaves into targeted ranges, but they are ranges we go through naturally many times every day.

Just found an old EEG from me, where the doctor wrote something about unusual, but regular theta waves. So these theta waves (which begin with LF7) are something that naturally occure in my brain while im normaly awake, yet im still alive *gg*

Ta-Tsu-Wa you are my hero. While there was very little new (to me) in what you wrote, it was soooo well done and I recognized right away some of the things I have been recently doing wrong. With your post I hope to get back on track. Thanks just fails to express my gratitude for all your insightful and inspiring posts, but my thanks I do offer most sincerely.

This is really good. Useful for those beginning meditation and those who are more experienced alike.

As it is so important may I suggest that the thread is placed where it can be easily found. It would be a pity for such useful information to be eventually lost and largely forgotten about. I only stumbled across it myself by accident.

Perhaps it could be recommended reading for newbies.

Thank you so much for this Ta-Tsu-wa

Ta-Tsu-Wa, thank you for your work and effort in gathering all this valuable information together in one place.

There was much that I knew and also much that I needed reminding of! I have always shied away from strict practices which need almost 'forced' concentration to 'make' a mediatation session work because I prefer to be flexible, sit quietly and just 'drop in' to a comfortable meditative state, but I also know people who prefer a much more extreme (well it seems that way to me!) method of chanting and physical poses as a means of meditation.

It is very much as you say, a matter of individual preference, and also, much depends on where you are in your Life as to what method suits us best, and also, what effects we are likely to 'feel' from our meditations.

Thank you also for clearing up the relationship between entrainment, brainwave states and meditation for me.

Peace and Joy to you,

Chris
