Any Kamana students should recognize this. Thank you Kamana program! What has fascinated me since involves what worked best about that original exercise, what to accentuatue, what to drop, and what got consistent results. I can talk more about this if folks feel curious.

I'll try writing this similar to the things above. Find dark quiet place, lay down. Employ earplugs and a blindfold if you have them. Pay attention to your heartbeat, feel and visualize the blood flowing through your veins and arteries. The adult body has 207 bones, assuming you haven't lost any, learn their locations and count them off gradually from toes to skull. Envision them glowing as you go, perhaps turning golden, as if your awareness has transmuted their makeup and imbued them with revitalizing energy. Learn the locations of all major organs residing within the skin and repeat the counting and imaginary enlivening procedure.
