Super-cali-fragil-istic-espi-ali-docious Moments...

Posted July 29th, 2010 by Ashoka Ishaya in Moments of feeling Drugged...

I did not drop Acid -LSD, but yesterday I certainly felt like I was living in the movie Yellow Submarine. From Daniel Pinchbeck's book = Breaking Open the Head I know there are tribal Shamans who have had psychedelic moments by taking various plant based substances.

I did not take any drugs or smoke any herbs. What happened was I went to sit in a hot tub to ease the pain of my monthly menstral cramps. After I got out of the hot tub, my female flow ceased and the production of brain chemicals kicked into HIGH GEAR!!! For about 18 hours the heat from the hot tub experience shifted the production of hormones from the usual pathways into newer and "higher" more evolved substances. That caused me to see beautiful colors and feel very other worldly, expanded and high in the extreme. I do not have experiences of having taken street drugs to compare to, only have read various accounts. [Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is one long ago account I remember.]

It has been 24 hours since I sat in the hot tub, and I am starting to feel a bit more calm and not so high...smoothing out and slowing down. I am able to think more coherently and process more analytically.

Anyone else having these kinds of experiences??? Without taking drugs? What form of meditation do you practice?

Peace,

Ashoka.

I have had experiences where I could tell a shift in consciousness.  It felt like a drunk sensation.  After a time I went back to regular base state sensations.  I could witness the sensation and the shift.  When I looked back upon the situation I could see a bunch of spiritual stuff/events transpiring. 

I haven't experienced the wild colors, but I have heard stories from my friends who have during meditation and energy work.  These experiences can be accessed without drugs.

My other thought is to pay attention to your body in case there is a health concern.
