Okay, so I did 3 rounds of the method. Then, I did buteyko breathing. I worked out, did my yoga and tai chi. I'm the calmest I've been in a long time. It could be from the tea mix I had, though. I haven't had any paranoia at all. I drank a hibiscus tea mix, and hibiscus really helps with my paranoia/anxiety so that could be why I'm calm. I kinda want to try the method before bed, with buteyko afterwards, but it could be a gamble.

Apparently, Wim can influence his autonomic nervous system at will, or so he says. I think I know the real reason. Hear me out, when I do buteyko, it releases nitric oxide, which widens your blood vessels, and thickens the blood. Thicker blood means warmer body temperature. I could be way off, though.

I have tried meditating, and I meditate when I can. It hasn't done a whole lot for my panic attacks. I think I have underlying trauma that has surfaced, which caused the panic attacks.

Yes and no. He's had scientists do tests on him and it does activate different parts of your brain.

It's a Lenovo 2 in 1, 256gb hard drive, windows 11. I'd be using for browsing, media. I'd be using my newer computer more but the old computer would be a backup. I'd mostly use it to try out Linux distro.

So far, my toolkit includes yoga, tai chi/Qigong, buteyko, hibiscus/chamomile tea, matcha tea, and ASMR. I've been working on a regimen or plan which incorporates all of them. I was using adaptogens, but that's a diff story for another day.

I also started yoga and buteyko which also helped with my anxiety/panic attacks.

Aether is kinda like that, but they support "free speech" and there are subs with slurs as the title. Use at your own risk, I guess.

I used to have panic attacks a lot, but when I started the buteyko method, they have dropped/stopped dramatically. Now I can think more clearly, and I'm a lot calmer. If it's a scam, it's a damn good one, cause it helps my anxiety a lot.

I mean, I guess it was inevitable? It's just sad to see good code go to waste to the alt-right/neo-nazi subhumans
