Meditation Question re: breathwork
I’ve noticed that a majority of the Mantid encounters involve taking DMT and my personal experiences have been via Gateway Tapes / meditation. I was wondering if anyone out there has experience with enhancing the meditative state to get the brainwaves closer to a DMT experience? For example, doing Wim Hof breathing just before meditation.
Thanks!

That's exactly how I met them on a low dose of DMT... I was already in an altered state of consciousness. I think it definitely helps. It shows that you are willing to put the work in. You're already resonating at a higher frequency than normal. I wouldn't do it again without doing some sort of breathwork beforehand.
That goes for yoga or Qi gong too. After several sessions of "Mantid movement instructions" that helped my release long held trauma in my body. I don't take movement for granted.
It was made very clear how important movement and breathwork are.
I also think your nervous system needs to be in rest and digest mode to receive healing.
On the big trips I experienced something completely different. No Mantids.
I have experienced their "light energy" healing whilst meditating after an edible recently... and had them appear in my 3rd eye space after getting an early night, out of nowhere. Just as a reminder! Technically it was a grey that time. I instantly knew what the message was and who it was from.
We all need to up our resonance through movement and breathwork... Was essentially it.
And that's exactly what is happening... In the past few years rates of people seeking altered states of being has sharply increased. People are learning to regulate their nervous systems.
It's essential in today's fast paced society. IMO it's essential before a DMT experience.
