Earthquake: in-the-moment OF3 for an exceptional situation
A couple of days ago we experienced a Richter 7.1 earthquake. It was “exciting”, and not in a good way. Thankfully there were no victims and no major damage in our area but the fear was intense. After the quake, there was still a lingering, very powerful fear that was not going away. Even my dog was very stressed.
Instead of reaching for drugs*, I grabbed my iPad and blasted OF3 ultrasonic full volume. I was not watching the time but well before the end of the track (maybe 20 to 30 minutes), the fear disappeared completely, for me and every human in range. I just … relaxed. Soon after that I went to bed and slept like a baby.
The dog, however, whined periodically during the night. Unfortunately, subs don’t work for dogs (not until Shannon learns dogspeak.)
