Something of note -- I've got a lot of bruises from my heavy martial arts training. I had a particularly LARGE, nasty bruise on my ribs from sparring. After running AOSI, that bruise is NOTICEABLY smaller. I mean, like 85% smaller. Also, it doesn't hurt -- AT ALL. In fact, it itches, which usually signifies healing...
If I didn't know any better, I'd say something in AOSI has a healing effect.
Increased metabolism will increase healing as a byproduct. But are you saying aosi is more calm and cool than am 6? I've not had the rage you describe in am, been pretty Zen. I think it's my strongest state, but if aosi is that way too, it might more sense for me to run it.
With all the burning sensations you reported I assumed this was an unhinged state being produced. It kind of freaks me out tbh.
I was super zen in S1 and S2 of AM6. Once S3 rolled around, I've experienced nothing but RAAAAAAAAGE!!! It's much better than my first AM6 run -- that was full of deep, deep depression. The RAAAAAAAAAAGE!!! is manageable, because I can generally push through whatever tasks that need to be done. That depression was beyond killer.
But yeah, the AOSI vibe is unparalleled, man -- I've NEVER felt so chill, laid back and in the zone... and I've done a lot of drugs, haha. It's like the best of every drug with no side effects other than having to eat. AND now you're telling me that promotes healing? I was going to do SM eventually, but I dunno. Maybe I'll run this long enough to install as much of the programming as I can, then grab BASE, refresh with Option B. Keep running BASE until I'm rich.
I'm eagerly awaiting until I can run AOSI again. This time, I'm going downtown and approaching rather than hanging with a group.
