Not written by me, page deleted for not following the Rules. If you're the author of this, please leave me a message The work starts within with the self. Learning to listen to and control the focus of the senses is vital to listening to and controlling the outside.

Hearing, sight, smell, taste, feeling and intuition are the internal senses that need work first. If these are the core, the intro is the breath. Once the breath is mastered you can start the senses work.

BREATH - breath deep and slow. Inhale fully and exhale fully. Pull from the bottom using diaphragmatic breathing and fill from the bottom up. Imagine pulling air down past the bellybutton deep into body, just above the pelvic region. Once the bottom portion is filled, you will feel slight pulls on your lower abdomen and lower back, similar to stretching a sore muscle. It is a very nice feeling. If this hurts, you need more work (typically ligament work due to poor posture). With the bottom 'chamber' filled, there is a noticeable shift to filling in the middle area which is signified by a stretching sensation in the upper middle back or the rhomboid major muscle. The end of the breath is filling the top portion of your lungs and can be felt in the cervical curve in the neck. With these three indicators, you have learned to breath deep or perform diaphragmatic breathing.

Practice this starting with 10-15 second breaths and work up to 20-30 second breaths or 4-6 breaths per minute to 2-3 breaths per minute. When this exercise becomes easy, take notice to the high pitched tone that sounds like a hiss coming in through you ears. This hiss is important, as discussed later. The hiss is a tone that needs to be brought down. If you can bring this down to a delta state, you'll notice a shifting in time. Your mind will bring you out quickly but this is normal and with time you can stay in a few seconds more each time with a certain amount of will-power. You will know and understand the feeling/sound when it happens, no explanation in words can cover it.
