Welcome back Seraphis1,
Only been 7 days for you--that's great!!!. Congratulations on keeping you head about you during the operation-sorry about no OBE. Wish more medical staff were aware of the hemi-sync and believed in the meditation techniques.
I did have some OBE activity during my lung operation and still am digesting the experience. The hardest part is that there is no one around to discuss it with although I did present as best I could on the board in '06.
I've found the hemi-sync tapes/cds helpful during MRIs and I'm sure it's allowed for spinal taps-both being situations where movement is not allowed or to prevent claustrophobic connected anxiety esp. with MRIs. Also found helpful just remembering RM's instructions from Gateway when tape not available and find that I can fairly easily duplicate that state of relaxation.
Relieved your back, I thought it was something I said
Looking forward to your next installments.
Jean
