"30 days practice"

[Robert Bruce]

G'day!

This 30 day caution was necessary due to my 'duty of care' as an author.  If you have no probs with NEW and want to progress to primary centre work, this is generally ok to do. But if problems do arise, say overly strong sensations or pressure pains or etc, discontinue primary work and go back to NEW for 30 days or so.

Take care, Robert.

30 days isn't very long, and there are always things to keep busy with. What's the rush?

I started work on NEW and got fairly proficient at the full body circuit in September of 2001, and it's just this month that I've started looking at progressing to the primary energy centers.

It's not like I set out saying "Thirty days? Ha! I'll wait six months, so there!" It was just so unexpectedly effective that I wanted to do it right, and it just seemed like getting a solid base would be a good idea. Initially I thought "Man, I gotta wait?" like everybody else, but in the meantime I just did the FBC until it seemed right, and as it happened that turned out to be about six months. In the meantime I got in a lot of practice as I made it a part of my everyday life, and I also got to watch as I got more experience in how to be effective and not so effective in energy raising.

Warning: Geeky role-playing game metaphor:
It's like the idea is to get up to at least level 2 in FBC skill before starting primary work. If you're still at FBC level 1 when you start the primaries, your primary development will be that much weaker because it's dependent on your FBC skill. As it happens, I wound up waiting until I was already at FBC level 3 or so before starting.

Is this good? I dunno. Since I'm literally still going through the primary energy center exercises, I can't really comment much on the specifics of that yet.

Oh, and yeah, I just put the book down in the meantime. I kept up on the forum of course.

And that also gave me a chance to pick up any of the dozen or so other books I'm in the process of reading... (:

Could you provide guidance about the instruction in AD on page 172 to wait 30 days before begining to work on the Primary Centers?  If my energy is generally flowing gently throughout with ease, is this necessary?  If so, does this mean, put the book down and just keep practicing before even reading the next sections?  What would the exceptions to this be?  

Thanks!
