You only need to follow the instructions to get the taste of it! There is no magical or mystical elements in it. Nothing special will happen, no paradise promised but you will have what you have, no cure, no relief but you will be what you are and you will observe yourself, your pain, your tremor from a little distance and it will make you wonder!

It surely works. It is even better if the laugh has an object of laughter, let us say like my very serious and apparently gloomy post

ahhhhhh but your humility reveals you dear imark (with a name like that one wonders if you are an archer?) btw i liked that post!
a while back i saw an episode of "House" on the tv.... the good doctor was considering possibilities for a guilt ridden patient and decided to give her a shot of B12 sayingg that B12 deficiency can cause guilt! I have been very conscientious all my life to a fault but ya know....if Dr. House iis correct than would the opposite hold true of a b12 surplus? makes me shudder to think that and almost grateful that my experience has led ttowards deficiency...not that guilt is constructive its not....but - the conscientiousness is a way to feel the world (until the internal judgement starts ringing our ears! )
kind regards

Hi md,
Strange you mention it but I have all 3, as most people . Feeling of guilt is specially strong to a degree that some times I think that PD came to absolve me from this burden!. Any way I do take B12 on a regular manner but for me, mindful meditation is working better than any thing else for all types of miseries that I experience as a human being
cheers

Great guided meditation videos,

I had a look at the first one that imark posted and they are really good. I may even incorporated them into my everyday meditations.

Thanks for posting these Imark,

I recently bought the mindfulness book...some of the advices are common sense (drink more water, sleep right, etc)
I have only been ill for 3 months, however I have been getting worse fast and I have nerves firing at random at night in completely healthy areas of my body....and not eating and not sleeping and worrying about it will only make it worse...
so I thought...why not? let's try meditation...
