Title: Hey Charlie!
Post by Kasey4 on Jun 23^rd, 2003, 7:22am

I've read your "redirecting blood" idea a couple of times and I've got to say - I don't get it/couldn't do it. What exactly am I supposed to do? Is it just about "thinking" about making the blood flow to your hand(s)? Do you start in your head and work it down? I want to try this but when I did I wasn't doing something right because it didn't work at all (if I can even make it work).

Thanks for any more details you can give :)

Kasey,

I'll let Charlie answer you question, but it DOES work. It isn't easy to master it, but it has worked for me somewhat. If I start doing it at the first sign of an attack, I am able to keep it at a 2 or 3 for a long time. But when it ramps up higher than that, I give up and go straight for the 02. LindaH
