Day 3
Okay so I'm pretty excited about the sub and kind of want to post every day even though there's nothing to note today (other than a headache, a completely unrelated toothache, and tiredness which is probably more from sleeping with headphones than the sub itself). I am enjoying sleeping with the sub on though, its hard to explain the feeling but its definitely different. I'm not sure I have ever felt this feeling before, it's very subtle yet still quite surreal.
I just want to say today that I feel some journals seem to me to be a little introspective and mention a lot of trivial little stuff that I'm not entirely convinced is caused by the sub. Its not my intention to criticise but I do want to prevent myself from falling into the same trap because it certainly is exciting and I can totally see myself doing that, out of sheer enthusiasm. It's so much easier to see someone else doing it than yourself! So I'm going to make an effort to avoid introspection and reading too much into things, whilst reporting the newsworthy things that I consider are undeniably a direct result of the sub.
I'm also planning on sticking religiously to the instructions (5 contiguous loops) and to commit several months to the cause, both for testing's sake and my own. I struggle to commit the 5.5 contiguous hours unless I'm in bed, so I can't be awake for all of it. If I try during the day, I'm afraid I might have to stop half way through and it won't be contiguous - at least at night time, I can guarantee 5 contiguous loops.
