There is a point where he has you visualize numbers and I was able to see fuzzy images of them. 1) Okay, youre already able to produce images. I often find myself resorting to poetic similes to describe what I see. The afterimage effect is closer to seeing than my visualization. Are you riding on a train? At some point I asked myself: is this imagination or am I halucinating? When you look into a light source then close your eyes, youll see a bright duplicate (usually fades quickly), no matter how good your visualization skills are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=du3MQPwoUkw To point you to some great resources to get the most out of life through writing, check out some of these titles on Amazon or your local book store: Writing Down Your Soul: How to Activate and Listen to the Extraordinary Voice Within- Janet Conner 1) often i have troubles talking about my experiences, stories i have lived, things i have seen, because i have problems at recalling them.

In a month (or so) I will also start image streaming technique. Persistence is the key. This is so important to me. 3. Andit works! It messes up the flow when I practice. However, i can recall the image a few times after it fades with closed and open eyes as well. I usually see green, yellow or purple, less often red or blue. Anyways, Ill keep plugging away and hopefully make some real progress. Please dont give up! Your personal continuous experience will tell you what works best for you. Im an artist and have been creating for quite some time. Stronger mental impressions lead to more explicit mental representations. Awesome. Not enough is known about aphantasia to say much of anything about it. Thank you for your review! Its kind of like the aurora borealis, sometimes swirling or cascading. Gotta keep at it, sight is the only sense Im completely missing in my mind. I did the candle, colors and shapes exercises for 15 minutes a day. # It might help to move closer to the candle, but for me when I do see anything after I close my eyes its just a light and very, very brief. Do you have any questions at all? Of course, is all black but feels like there are some slightly darker shadows in my mind (shadows of objects in the room). Perhaps you want to alter your exercise a bit to prevent boredom through repetition. I will report all progress, now its 2 months 25 days, well see later. I thought it had to do with my using my eyes against the backs of my eyelids instead of my minds eye. Dont do this exercise for more than 5 minutes. What is frustrating is not only that I am not seeing mostly anything, but after trying hardly (moderately hard), I only can see extremely blurry images which stays almost 1~2 seconds . And if so, how long did that transition take? To not quit yet. Sorry if I sound confusing.. Try to imagine what happens when it receives an incoming call from your home line. Theres this thing that happens after a while, where you switch your conscious attention from your actual eyeballs to your minds eye. No matter how hard you try to imagine yourself a different color, youll stay the same. Ive discovered this while doing some research on minds eye training and aphantasia. I am usualy patient and positive (Im 37 years old). I like to use, for example, a simple memory (match) game from Googleplay. I didnt use a candle Yesterday I used my iMac (youtube was open, no fullscreen) and today my window (natural light). Use an imaginary pen and retrace details (outlines, sub-shapes, light reflections, colors, ) while observing. Like with the other imagination exercises, this is about patience and details. Dont just do what you read here. Im going to start doing the geometric shape exercise next. Contrary to your belief, aphantasia is a real thing. Im doing this about 20-60 minutes/day. I began to feel it too, when I struggled hopelessly for days trying to get the faintest hint of a visualization, only to be met with disappointment. I think it purely takes part in your mind only and, if you focus on the backs of your eyelids, you might prevent yourself from getting the best results. Week #3 The more the better. The deeper you can let go and relax during your exercise sessions the easier the access to your realm of imagination. I need to make this work, for the love of my family. I have some questions, again: this exercise that im practising works only for memory or also to increase visualization skills? Heres what I recommend to you as an exercise: Listen to these videos over and over again. With The Honest Guys, did you just listen to the audio or watch the accompanying video as well? I have a routine that I followed (and still do). (And please let me know all about it in the comments.). Its like we see the exact colours and stuff after closing the eyelid the same we see through our eyes open ? Ive heard of a lot of people getting very relaxed or sleepy when they do visualisation exercises. I started the exercise with the candle today, but I had no succcess. I greatly appreciate you leaving such an honest comment. I can now guess that persistence and determination is probably the (only) key. The background is white. Be very detailed! Personally, I think I had the biggest breakthrough with the videos from the HonestGuys. How long can you practice for each day? Take a lighter or a box of matches. Maybe incorporate more high contrast things to focus on in person that dont need a screen (lights in the screen might be worth seeing if they have an effect or not.) Okay, open your eyes and repeat the process a few times. I wish you good luck. Hopefully these exercises will work. But now I seem to be slipping backwards and Ive lost all of the tiny amount of progress I made in the first 5 days. Im still doing image streaming every day for about 45 minutes. Visualization is elusive, and everybody is different. I dont see much outside through my window (only shades). 2. How long have you been dong this and how much time did you invest per day?

I think there is a way to overcome this, and likely other internal senses will fall into place after the visual element is working.

So Marko any suggestions on how to practice mental rotation. Commit more details to memory.Do this for max. DO NOT STOP! After ~1 hour I could see the triangle. 2 days ago, I was bothered because of a guided meditation. For us, for some reason, we didnt visualise naturally. I do two things, I either stare at the whole image, then close my eyes and try to hold the afterimage as long as possible, or I stare at the hedges until I start seeing shapes (usually faces) and try to hold onto them as long as I can.

Even if I imagine painting on a canvas well, I see the canvas, but I dont visually place it in front of me. If so, then you know mental images. I thought that I am hallucinating but I have no idea how an hallucination looks like :) And once again, thank you to Dorin for your progress reports. 6.
