Where the past meets the present
After practicing yoga and meditation regularly for a few years, I have developed an intuitive sense of when I am deeply calmed. When I reach this state of calmness, I can feel my whole body throb with my heart rate, I can then "clock" my inhalations and exhalations to my heart beat. I also see distinct visual patterns with my eyes closed. But I never knew if these sensations were indicative of a good practice of meditation or if I was just imagining the whole thing. The Healing Rhythms method works very well for me. It was a pleasure to see heart rate variation and Galvanic skin potential applied to the ancient practice of meditation in a visually pleasing manner.  I can achieve all the visual targets using techniques I have honed through my intuitive practice. The instructions that precede the biofeedback exercises are quite nice themselves but it sometimes feels a bit inadequate. Yet if you stick with it you can usually divine what you need to do (or what to let go) to reach the final state. I find myself closing my eyes during the practice and seem to get to the goal without much feedback.
