Our focus, consciousness, intention or attention will choose which one or ones become dominant. This is often because our nervous system has been pulled off balance or misdirected by our unbalanced breathing. Optimal breathing is in many ways senior to thinking. From studying hypnosis we already suspect that reality is often what we think is so. But another level of awareness is how we feel, and what we intuit.
Intuition requires bodymind connection and bodymind connection requires balanced breathing.
I suspect that in many ways, the more hypnotizable we are the less we are in touch with our bodies. ESP is a matter of extra sensitivity. Watch the antenna of the breathing and see how it is connected to the sensing and feeling of the body. They are I believe interdependent. As children we hold or suppress our breath.
