@Oleg K.: So you think that the Bates method is nothing more than a set of facts? I don't have anything bad to say about Bates, but I find it difficult to believe that anyone can definitively define h...

Thread: Looking vs. Imagining
Post: Re: Looking vs. Imagining

I don't see how one could force a relaxing mindset. The words 'force' and 'relaxing' don't exactly go together. I don't think you should have to force anything to get a relaxed mindset; I don't even k...
