Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 5

[Shannon]

The desire to experience more input comes from the module I created that attempts to get the ultimate authority on how to configure your usage of the program to achieve the goals - your subconscious awareness - to guide you to the right amount of loops, days on, days off, for you.  It has been difficult to get working, but it seems to be more prominent in 5.75.7G.

Hello Shannon, Im reaching day 14 of OF V3 and feel the need of more listening time, should I raise it progressively (1 loop at a time per cycle), or should I directly go to what Im thinking would be best ?

If you feel like 3 days of rest works well for keeping you from exhaustion, then add a loop per day on for an ASRB2 cycle and see how you feel then.  If you feel like 3 days of bloom is too much, then instead of adding a loop, reduce your days off by one per ASRB2 cycle until you find the sweet spot.  If you have a specific urge to do something, follow that urge instead.  That should be the AutoConfig module executing, and it should take priority unless you have an urge to do suspiciously less exposure, which may be an attempt at sabotage.

Delegating the decision of how much to listen to the subconcious mind, Isn't this prone to fuck us over, if the subconcious really doesn't want to change and wants to sabotage our efforts ?

If the resistant parts dominate, then they will try to sabotage.  However, sabotage is going to involve doing things to prevent the program from being able to achieve its goals, which are typically relatively obvious: significantly less exposure, significantly lower volumes, headaches, excuses why you should switch to something else, the usual BS etc.  

If the cooperative subconscious is in control, then it will be executing the AutoConfig module and that is going to be obvious because it will either be asking for more exposure or a different listening pattern that is at least as much exposure, but in a different rhythm.

The effects I've noticed so far have been sleepy/yawning while listening, and better sleep after the 1 loop. And also slightly more free to do what I need to do, a little less procastination, but this is still very early and have a lot to improve still

My country went again into strict quarantine so I've not been out of my house a lot, so social anxiety and the likes have not been triggered to know if there are improvements.

That sounds like progress to me.
