Regular intense exercise (IE: weightlifting) can deplete your bodies supply of  zinc, magnesium, and vitamin B-6.

There have been many studies showing that most athletes are deficient in zinc, magnesium, and vitamin B-6.

A side effect of supplementing with ZMA, is outrageously realistic dreams.

You take the supplement an hour or so before bed on an empty stomach, and it helps you sleep deeper, and as I mentioned, makes your dreams substantially more vivid and greatly increases dream recall.

Anyone have any comments?

Last night I had my 1st true phasing experience. I fully focused my attention in F2oC. It was actually fairly incredible. I was lying in my bed attempting to "phase" like I had been doing the last week or so, except this time, I adopted the attitude of "meh". I really didn't care if it happened or not. I decided I would create an imaginary place in my mind.

Apon doing so, I had an intention to go there. So I started constructing this place. I decided I was particularly fond of old growth forests, so I constructed a log cabin midst a clearing. I then followed up be piecing bits of scenery around and filling in the details and whatnot. I remember to try and engage my senses inside my mind, so I did. After a good while, 15 mins or so, this place of mine became sooo real, that I was actually inside it, in 1st person, with all my senses going strong. I would walk, and hear my footsteps, I'd look at a tree, and see every leaf without trying to them, I could hear wind blowing in the trees. It was actually pretty intense. I completely forgot about my physical body, I was totally immersed in my creation. It was so weird, it was like being in a dream, except 100% aware. Now, I know this was F20c because it was really susceptible to thoughts, often times I had to "flex my muscles" so to speak, to get rid of "negs".

I guess I will give a detailed description of my experience:

I began constructing the log cabin midst a clearing of about 100x100 feet inside a virgin forest. I pictured the cabin being rectangular in shape, and having a straw roof. I made a door in the front on one of the shorter sides. I decided it would be awesome to have a garden on the left side of the cabin (relative to the front door). Then, I decided in the back of the house, one of the old growth trees needed a tree house up in it, and so it was born 200 feet up with no ladder. To the rear right next to the treeline grew blackberry bushes.

Then, I realized I would need entrances to the clearing, and so a long path was made in the very front center, that veered to the left about 150 feet down it. Another path was made right center, that went straight as far as I could see. I then realized I had not entered my cabin! So I walked in, and begin laying down my thoughts as to the interior design. After walking in, to the left you will find a kitchen table and 4 chairs. To the right, a TV area with love-seat, and surround sound :p. Behind the dining room table, you will find a counter that comes out from the wall, about 5 feet. Behind that is the kitchen area. Behind all that, would be a bedroom. And so my cabin was created.

I left it and realized I did not have an orchard! So, I pushed back the treeline on the side with the garden good 200 feet, and BAM, freshie orchard. I then, decided to to furnish my tree-house. I flew up there (yeah, I learned how to fly =D) and made a little bed in the far right corner, and a little desk in the rear left corner. I paused for a moment deciding what to put beside the bed. I thought of a cool little end table, and it appeared there. For a little while I was content, but i grew weary and bored, so I removed the end table, and made a window beside the door and mounted a Gatling gun turret over looking my forest paradise.

All right, I flew around my cabin a few times admiring my creating feeling proud, and generally noticing how real everything felt. At that moment, I decided it was time to explore. Then, some for some reason I created an entity, a female companion. I know now that she was an aspect of myself that I used to bring up subjects that I needed to press into my subconscious. So we began meandering down the front center pathway.

As I we were walking, I remember noticing how amazingly real it all was, I could hear to sets of foot prints, I could see every pebble, every leaf, every blade of grass and I could smell the forest air. So we rounded the bend that I mentioned earlier, and there was a pile of rubble blocking the road. My companion then posed the question: "Oh now, how are we gonna get past?" (NOTE: This is what I meant by "pressing ideas into my subconscious" I knew that I had the power to do whatever, but she was the aspect of myself that I used to bring these powers into awareness).  I then replied "I'm all powerful, and I can do anything, and you can as well". I then used telekinesis to fling the pile of rubble into space. We walked about 30 more feet down the path. Then, a thought came into my head that there could be negative entities. As soon as I thought that, a MASSIVE spider appeared right behind us. (I think my subconscious chose the spider because I had seen the scene in LOTR with the spider before bed).

At 1st, I was somewhat frightened because I could see this spider in amazing detail, its hairs, the reflection of the surroundings in its eyes and I could hear its hisssssing. But as soon as I remembered this is my would, I used telekinesis to shoot into into the forest. Now, that was especially cooool, because my subconscious created the effects of it mowing down trees as the effect of my launching it directly into the forest. I could see all the trees crash, I could see its legs flailing, and I could clearly hear the trees snapping.

At that moment I looked again at the place where the spider was. I guess I was a still a bit shocked at the sight of this thing and still had a bit of negative thoughts in my mind, so all these baby spiders, about 6 were running at me (they were still huge haha, about a foot across). But just like before, I remembered I was a god in this world, as mangled them up good, with several fireballs. Haha, that was so cool, because it sooo real feeling. I then reassured my companion that we are all powerful (to press it into my subconscious). So off we were down the path when I decided a straight path was no longer needed.

I created a fork that went off to the right. I then created a signpost that said there was a mountain straight and a cave down the right path.  My partner then piped up that the cave was probably spider-less :p. That was particularly amusing because I did not think of saying that!!!. So told her, we would continue forwards toward the mountain. I then paused for a bit, to take in my surroundings and admire the realness. TO my front, was a mountain in the distance, down the path towards the cave were these hills, and i looked back at where my cabin was supposed to be. It occurred to me that all the trees where I was were tiny in comparison to the ones surrounding the cabin, so naturally when I looked back, I saw towering trees right where they were supposed to be. I looked at the ground, saw individual pebbles, singular blades of grass. It was just to real. So onwards we trekked.

We came to another pile of rubble about 100 feet down the path!. My sidekick, said, "not another pile, will you get rid of it?". I then reminded her of her powers, so she just flew over it. But that wasn't cool enough for me :p.  

I use telekinesis to lift it up out of the ground, and made it fly into the forest, (which had similar effects as the spider hitting the trees). I looked down and it seemed the pit that remained was bottomless. I then had a negative thought of someone falling down it, which of course led to my partner falling immediately.  So, of course I, once again, flexed my brainpower, she flew up flawlessly. Again I had to remind her of our god like abilities. So we continued on down the path another 30 or so feet until I got the urge to create new forks.

I made a path to the right that led to a "evil forest" (I think at the time I decided I might want to do some battling in the future :p). And another path that went left wise, to a village. I got a glimpse of what the village might look like, think tee-pees. I decided not to go there because I did not think I was ready, but perhaps I didn't have enough energy to create such a village with people all over. So me and my new friend decided to continue our adventure towards the mountain. But first I decided to have a look around. It was awesome that nothing lost its vividness. Towards the town there was even smoke rising, that I didn't create, but it just seemed likely. And over to the "evil forest" were huge trees surrounded in mist. I looked up at the mountain and it was even a little bigger now that we were closer. At this point I don't know why, but my friend (who had no name by the way) asked what I would do if something attacked us. UHH, I guess she was a little slow :p. I told her, for like the 5th time, nothing could happen. She said " what if a... a....a big bear attacked us!".  I decided to show her exactly what would happen .  

So I said " You mean like that one!" as I pointed to the big brown bear running straight at us from the mountain path. So, feeling playful, I took it on hand to hand, or..hand to paw haha. Of course, I messed it up good. But, I saw it lying on the ground bleeding, and I somehow felt compassion for it!!, So I revived it, and made it run away into the trees. Then, I remember how cool my cabin was :p. So I grabbed my companion by the hand and started to fly back, low to the ground. It was really amazing because everything we passed was still there, looking real as ever. There were even smoldering bits of baby spider hahaha.

We arrived at the cabin, and sat down inside at the dining room table. She asked if I wanted to play chess. I said "umm, sure I guess". we took about 4 moves each, and I decided I was bored, so I walked outside. At that point I looked around at the scenery, marveled in its beauty, and felt content with my experience. I opened my physical eyes and just laid there smiling.

Allright, this is my 1st post here (Hehe, Hay everybody!)

I am fairly new to AP and became aware of the swaying vibrations a few weeks ago. I have been meditating for a few years now, and never felt them.  I am 18 years old if it makes a difference.

I was wondering, is it normal to get these vibrations randomly throughout the day. I would also like to note that I practice martial arts, am very healthy, and I NEVER get sick.. EVER!.

Often I will be doing some activity and I will feel the swaying, out of nowhere, without inducing it. Sometimes I will be just drawing or playing guitar, and it will get fairly intense, and I'll hear buzzing.

I was under the impression that most had to try to get the vibrations.

Does anyone else get them without trying randomly, throughout the day?!

umm, I'm feeling them very slightly right now.
