I guess some of my other posts make it seem like truth is a bit out of my relm but the sports science board is not where I go to test how credulous other people are . Its where I go to test how credulous I am :) The chakra business seems to have worked really well for me, not fixed completely but starting to heal well. The logical part of my brain tells me it could just be that time has passed and its a normal healing time or the fact I like the theory means I look for proof it may be working. Its worth mentioning that the woman I spoke to about chakras knows me so may have included her own insights into my personality that are not strictly chakra based :) Im sorry that you doubt what I am saying but I would like to thank you for pointing me in a directing that I feel has helped me alot. Personally I think it is working well because I can see logical sense in it, and comming from the family that I have and with 7 yrs in uni the being able to make sense of something and break it down, rather than just trust or having faith is important. I understand what you mean about things feeling stronger and making more sense when you are in nature, mabey just getting outside and feeling the sun and the grass has more benefits than any particular theory, but it also makes you a bit more aware of where you fall in the scheme of things. Physical activity makes you consciously aware of your body and what it is saying to you, rather than the numbness of just existing in your body as a means of transporting your thoughts. QiGong sounds like it has helped you alot, the sensation you describe sounds alot like what some people get when they find a therapist that clicks with them, its like finally having an explanation for why things are the way they are and a sense of connectedness because your problem is fixable and someone else understands it and can help you fix it. It can also be unerving and disturbing when someone can look inside you and know what you dont know about yourself or dont want to know. I called one of the psychiatrists from work to find out more about what causes your ears to suddenly stop working and he said it is incredibly common in different forms.The medical explanation is that when someone is hearing something that their mind cant cope with or will disturb their world view the nerves stop working in the ear to protect the mental situation until the person can cope with what is being said, similarly when someone sees something horrific it is not uncommon for them to suddenly be unable to see, the nerves are still alive they just temporarily wont work until the person feels less threatened by what they may see. Some people become catatonic as a defense mechanism, this is less often related to trauma and more often occurs in highly motivated individuals who are putting themselves under pressure to succeed and their body forcibly shuts down to prevent damage to the mind. It happened to one of the guys in my psychology class, he was desperate for straight high distinctions and was struggeling with advanced statistics,his fear of a lower mark was so great he developed catatonic rigidity. He slowly started to get better when he was un-enrolled in the class and enrolled in a different subject he was more comfortable with. The minds ability to protect itself and the effects it can show on the physical body sound like science fiction but are not uncommon and are well documented. I love all of that kind of freaky medical stuff so I suppose it makes me more open to the idea that your mindset can have huge impact upon your body, and more likely to see results from something that supports that view.
Happy New Year Mark, I hope you continue to enjoy your studies. Thank-you for telling me about the chakras even if you doubt it could be as effective as it was :P
PS im not sure why you ask about my eyes but the answer is the are probably the best working part of my body. I have 35/20 vision so I can see from 35 metres what most people see from 20 and my night vision is almost the same as most peoples day vision.
