OK guys I got one for ya.

Does anyone out there or has anyone out there ever noticed that if they drink coffee, or take certain types of herbs (I'm not referring to narcotics here, just plain ol' over the counter type health food store stuff, herbs you can buy for health) that it enhances their telepathy, psychic ability, and/or Remote Viewing capabilities?

I'm beginning to think it can, or does.  I recall reading something somewhere about caffeine doing this.  Anyone else?

Hello Spook,

I am of the impression that anything that would raise one's vitality and or level of alertness would be an asset in a CRV type of session.  Though that could just be the coffee talking.  

My teacher used the standard of a martial arts contest.  If I was too tired to step into ring then I was too tired to expect decent results from a session.  Not always an obtainable standard for most when paying work takes priority, but I think the point is a good one.

Asside from coffee, of which I drink huge amounts daily.  I did try using Tahitian Noni Juice daily for several months, and though it may have been psychological I honestly felt like it not only just made me feel better in general but did improve my "psi".  Which of course could have simply been a result of my feeling better in general though I suppose it doesn't particlarly matter what the mechanic of it was, it did seem to help.  I only stopped cause it seemed way too expensive, but as I sit here reading myself I think I should go get some more.

Best regards,
Gene

This is interesting Gene.  I have noticed I become more sensitive to my "psychic side" if you will, when I drink coffee, and I'm not a coffee drinker anymore (maybe I need to take it up again).  Also, when I take regular doses of B12, seems to help (Dames even talked about how you burn off a lot of B12 when you RV); also, I note when I take any kind of herb supplement with Ma Huang in it, it seems to drastically increase my sensory perception and telepathic abilities.  It must be an energy thing.

Caffeine will certainly keep you from dozing off during a session.  Like all stimulants, it does give you a temporary shot in the arm.

Doing any kind of psi, psychic, or rv work requires energy, especially the type labelled mana, prana, qi, ki, or just plain psychic energy. Energy work is always concerned with the accumulation, storage, refinement, and free flow of energy. But it has advantages over stimulants - it's longer lasting, obtainable anywhere anytime without having to buy it, and the body just loves it.

It's been said that we generally use a small percentage of our brains rather than the full 100%. The brain is the largest consumer of energy and oxygen in the body. The body has basically set the brain to power-saving mode in order to conserve energy. If you wanted to increase the percentage utilization of your brain, then you would have to up your energy requirements and increase your power input to your body. Your other organs would need to be put in balance to support the needs of the few, in the interests of harmony in the system.

You'd have to breathe more efficiently to get more oxygen in each breath and use more of it and transport it to more cells and increase output, detoxification, and expiration of more garbage that piles up, as well as up your intake of prana or qi and store more of it, remove energy blockages that prevent the energy going to where it needs to. But then, you'd also have to make some sacrifices and give up certain life-energy depriving lifestyles and foods and thoughts.

I can just see you now, flocking to yoga and qigong classes to satisfy those needs. But hey, at least you'd be using more of your brain to access some supernormal mental powers that lie dormant, just like some of our ancestors did in the distant past.

Yes, but it is also very effective at keeping you out of a Low-Alpha/High-Theta state.  That's where I like hanging out, so for me, a good workout before, a glass of wine or ONE beer, not 2 or 3...works good. You can have 2 or 3 martinis after, if it was a good hit, but not otherwise.  We're so much like Pavlov's dogs  :-)

Doing any kind of psi, psychic, or rv work requires energy, especially the type labelled mana, prana, qi, ki, or just plain psychic energy.

Nicely put, it is interesting how some people just assumes that ESP magically "works" without any sort of manipulation or information transfer, this requires not more or less of energy, but just knowing how to USE it.

Spook,

In the sessions I've done caffeine definitely seems to help rather than hinder. The worst thing to be is too tired or sleepy, as your body will take this opportunity to get the rest you so desperately need. I think it's also possible to have too much caffeine or stimulant and not be able to get in Theta. I've also discovered that I work well with a theta-delta CD that will help my mind get into the specific brain wave format quickly and keep me there while I'm doing the work. It becomes enough like white noise that I don't notice it in the background when the data starts to flow in.

One of the other benefits to practice is that you get to know the specific bodily feelings and response associated with the proper levels of Theta and Alpha. This helps you to gauge when you are at the correct level for certain types of information. I've found that if I've had too much caffeine my problem with AOL drive is increased. So there seems to be a balance. With me it's about 1-2 cups of coffee.

Hope that helps,
ww

I've heard from good viewers I know that a good dose of exercise at least 20 minutes prior to the session does well for them.  I haven't tried much of that.

Caffeine only helps me in regards to staying awake.  I'm so chronically sleep deprived it makes sessions damn difficult; I sit down to do one and am snoring instantly.

Now and then I take 'liquid vitamins' and I am always amazed at how quickly I can really feel the 'pep' from them.  But after several days of them, I always end up having some dream that makes me think my body, despite that it feels good, doesn't think this is a good thing (like I'll dream I'm at a doctor's office and someone is chronically throwing up what looks exactly like the vitamin stuff).  So I am not sure what that means; perhaps I should just not take the stuff except occasionally.  

There are theories that any skill -- from singing to martial arts to whatever -- is dependent on the overall health of the individual.  E.g., that fat opera singer may be great, but it's possible if she were in better physical shape she'd be even better.  I suppose this is probably true to varying degrees.  

I don't know the mechanism of RV.  I don't know if it's the energy body chakras, if it's solely 'the mind', if signals are moving through our nervous system to the mind, or a combination of a ton of things--nobody yet knows everything that is involved in the overall process of psychic functioning.  So, I don't know what physiological factors will influence it.  But I do know that generally the better I feel, the better my viewing is likely to be, and this could even be for psychological reasons, too!

interesting enough back in 2002 I was taking a diet supplement containing Ma Haung.   It was during that time when my psychic abilities was at its highest peak.
I am no longer taking this supplement and my psychic abilities is not as sharp now as it was then.  After reading this thread I am begining to believe that this herb have some effect on psychic abilities.   Eventhou, this herb was very effective, I am no longer taking it because I read about some of the different side effects that is associated with this herb.

[The_Spook]

sunshine4u:  I experienced the same thing.  Very, in some cases radically, heightened telepathic abilities and bouts of "psychic periods" where I swear, I felt like I was a human crystal ball   .  I also took a diet supplement with Ma Huang in it - and never experienced any of the side effects that have gotten everyone so up in arms about it (like Phen Fen).  In fact I think there's only been very few people who had problems with Ma Huang but of course they went and took those few examples, and are beginning to ban it all over the place.  Interesting that they take these two things off the market.  You begin to wonder if its for the reasons they state, or something else.  

Is there some link to what we're saying (increased pyschic ability) and the herbs?  

Are we on to something?   Does the government know this, and is this why suddenly, all this stuff is getting banned?  Seriously, makes me wonder sometimes....I really do.  I recently again started taking a mild diet supplement with Ma Huang in it again.  I only take the prescribed amount per day.  I'm not experiencing any side effects, pain, palpitations, or shortness of breath.  I have more energy and feel better and have a more positive outlook.  

And I'm not kidding you, my telepathy and my intuition is increasing again.  

[sunshine4u]

Spook,

I definitely feel that we are on to something.  I never experience any side effects and like yourself I felt like I was a human crystal ball.  I never felt better.  It has been a puzzle for me to figure out what in the heck was going on in 2002 to increase my psychic abilities to that heighten level.  I have been tossing back and forth rather or not to go back on the herb.  This morning, before I read this thread I have decided to go back on it.
I believe it is okay to take the herb as long as you take the precribed daily dose.  I need to the feel the way I felt in 2002, the energy, positive attitude and all.  

I have not seen any link regarding Ma Huang enhancing  psychic abilities.  I will began a search.
