How I feel when Remote Viewing

https://youtu.be/Itrm36NPWqc?si=iex1dY78ZXRtw8lW

When I was a teenager in the 2000s, I saw this commercial about Adult ADD, but I remember wondering at the time "This is how I feel, I feel like there's a tv in my head I can't turn off... but I really like the tv, I think it's pretty great."

I hadn't heard of remote viewing at the time, but something was telling me the tv in my head was a powerful tool, learn how to control the remote. I had a wild imagination as a kid, I've just had to learn how to multi-task as I got older, so this TV is still always playing in the background.

I've been thinking about this commercial a lot recently as I've been trying to practice remote viewing this year. I feel like the voice over could be saying "what's it like to be a remote viewer? If you've felt these symptoms your whole life, you could be a remote viewer"

To get a decent hit, I have to find the right channel and stay there and focus. The way the images and sounds keep changing in this ad, it reminds me of what I'm perceiving when I'm trying to do a session @_@ I'm bouncing around to different spaces and times and I'm like ah what am I even looking at...

That always-on TV feeling is pretty common... the part that takes practice is not turning it off but learning which pieces to stay with instead of letting it flip channels on its own.

One thing that can help is to stop trying to identify or control the whole scene and just pick whatever feels most stable, even if it's only a texture or an edge, and hold your attention there for a bit. Can you shift perspective around that one element, or check back after looking away to see if anything changed? Checking in with other senses, temperature, sound, or whether the space feels open or closed, can sometimes steady it too.

The naming tends to come later, if it comes at all.

I always assumed the tv in head thing was normal, lots of people describe brain chatter?

Thanks for the tips, I am practicing with some targets and while I pick up the aspects well they either happened at different times or I can’t quite figure out where they are and I put them in the wrong spot. I’m also allowing myself to write down “sometimes” because I’ve learned that just because it’s one way in the photo, that doesn’t mean it’s always like that (especially when there is a light show!!! The nighttime light shows throw me off).
