Expectations: The ears are portals to Consciousness
This is a Spiritual practice that expands Consciousness. We're opening up to Higher Awareness/Consciousness. That said, we should look at it as an ongoing journey. We shouldn't be expecting one big result that we can look at or touch. When we begin our first lunar cycle, we should be planning on considering our results after one full year cycle.
One month we might make a giant leap in Consciousness, we might have an extremely visual experience, or an audio experience, or we might have massive eye opening revelations, then we might go a couple month cycles without being able to feel or see much difference. But if we're following it properly and continuing to refine and add to our process, we will continually open up more and more to Higher Awareness, Consciousness will continue to expand inside of us and through us.
I understand all of us want some drastic change that we can carry around and show others like a trophy, but that's not what this is about. Even now with all that I've seen/experienced, I still can get caught up in expectations. But I've been through it enough times now to be able to remind myself that it's a steady progression, with some larger leaps during some cycles.
It's all by Divine design. We can't control it. All we can do is put ourselves in the best position by being prepared and open to receive the infinite blessings of the Most High.
So if you're enjoying the breathing practice you're already doing, then you should definitely stick with that for now. You can always add more in the future. Any alternate nostril breathing should be done during these days, and really everyday, as it wakes up and syncs both hemispheres of the brain. And any breathing routines with long breath holds are key. I would add one little tip during breath holds, and really during any pause in between inhale and exhale, and that is to listen. Listen as attentively as you can during any pause, especially after an inhale, as our brain becomes slightly more alert on an inhale. And the farther out you can expand your hearing/listening, the better.
The ears are portals to Consciousness. And the route to heightened Awareness is by putting all our senses on high alert. It's really that simple. Remember that ideas, solutions, answers, revelations, come to us in the space between thoughts.
We can look at it like sentences... If our thoughts look like this with no space between them, then ideas, solutions, answers can't get in: Ifourthoughtslooklikethiswithnospacebetweenthemthenideassolutionsanswerscan'tgetin.
So we must create little breaks in the thoughts/words, by pausing to listen. And the more we practice this, the longer the pauses become. The more space we create, the more we can receive.
