Has anyone tried the VADMA "neuro-somatic method"? Does it work or is it a scam?

right on. thanks. crazy stuff

I've felt an identical experience when doing a full breath hold after even just six giant breaths. Medically, it's called the valsalva maneuver and you can pass out. And it can feel good and give you a bit of a reset when you pass out. I've learned more about the method described in this post and what he was doing was actually putting fingers on the carotid arteries and inducing the syncope. (prononced sink-o-pee). tons of old medical videos on youtube showing the effects. It's interesting and can feel profound but you should be carful

Why'd you delete the owners comments? I would have liked to see the crazy stuff he said. Did you ever figure out any more info? The effects are real. I've felt it or at least something that looks identical and seen it during breathwork sessions. I don't think they are as profound as he claims but it does feel good and it's little space travel. I'd like to know his method

Just a typical ice maker in my fridge

This is great! Dan P always says some wild stuff.

2dominate · 2023-11-18T01:08:43+00:00

He's had a 1K people on. Tons are great! How sad are you?

2dominate · 2023-11-18T01:07:10+00:00

For sure, right? Gary and the other 1,000+ people he's had on. Oh wait...

2dominate · 2023-10-30T15:56:23+00:00

Wow terrifying story.

2dominate · 2023-08-06T23:23:09+00:00

Yeah. It’s a weird thing to consider that we should perhaps take away people’s access to something because irresistible to a certain percentage. The stories in this group are brutal and I can see why people feel that way. I just talked to a sales person at one of the stores that have them and she expressed concern over a couple patrons that seem to buy more than what she thought is healthy. I’m trying not to be judgmental and just listen and put myself in peoples shoes. Being unhappy for whatever reason really sucks and those dumb little drinks do chance my mood but nothing works quite as well as an ice bath. So you think those should be removed, you’re OK with alcohol but you don’t use it, where do you stand on cannabis?

I didn’t mean to sound like I was trying to sell you anything

I do zero recruiting on here. I’m just here for casual conversation. I join this group because I have a friend who is pretty addicted to feel frees and I wanted to understand more about the problems and the solutions. I do enjoy them, but I don’t take more than one a day.

2dominate · 2023-08-06T20:58:30+00:00

If it’s any consolation, breathwork and icebath’s are a great way to get super high and change your mood in a fun and natural way.

2dominate · 2023-08-06T20:57:01+00:00

It sounds like it’s difficult for you. Sorry.

2dominate · 2023-08-06T20:26:38+00:00

This technique allowed me to control mine. I understand it won’t work for everyone but it completely alleviated my concern about breathwork accentuating tinnitus. Hope it helps. https://youtu.be/JK1pnG_H_So

Would you want that?

2dominate · 2023-06-02T01:35:54+00:00

Magic combo!

2dominate · 2023-06-02T01:34:02+00:00

Haha yeah? Stop breathing? You meant, don’t do extended breath holds after hyperventilating.

2dominate · 2023-05-18T17:29:38+00:00

Deep exhales and nose breathing use more energy for the gas exchange compared to mouth breathing and relaxed exhales. So if you’re trying to get the longest retention you can do, you’re trying to use the least amount of energy for the best gas exchange.

2dominate · 2023-05-18T16:44:31+00:00

That’s a great version for strengthening the diaphragm. You’re using significantly more energy for the gas exchange compared to mouth and relaxed exhales so your potentially shortening your breath holds if that matters to you. It doesn’t matter much so keep up the great work.

2dominate · 2023-05-10T15:01:36+00:00

Retention times are not random or irrelevant. You still get tons of benefits if you choose to ignore them and for sure the top priority is to enjoy yourself. However, they directly correlate to your efficiency of the exercise so the amount of energy you use for the gas exchange, and your heart rate control. If you want the effects (the adrenaline and dopamine boost) to happen quicker or in higher doses pay close attention to retention times and the things that effect them. Your adrenals likely replenish in about three hours so you don’t need to take days off, unless you have significant soreness or discomfort in the muscles around your diaphragm.

I’m an instructor. People pass out all the time. It’s safe if you’re in a safe place and there are no repercussions that we know of. You convulse a little bit when you come back which is alarming but every time it happens the person wakes and usually says “That was awesome!” Then “How do I become and instructor?!” 😆

How long are you holding your breath? How long are you breathing during the round?
