Psi Balls DAY 01
------------------
So right now I am focusing this week on psi balls. I can make psi balls pretty good, but not good enough. Throughout this week, I will try many different techniques to make psi balls, and I will be practicing throwing and growing. I shall put aside flaring for next week. Any comments or questions are welcome. Here's the schedule I'm hoping to follow.

Day 01: start Making psi balls
Day 02: Making Psi balls
Day 03: finish up making psi balls, start throwing
Day 04: Throwing/sending psi balls
Day 05: finish up sending psi balls, start construct practice
Day 06: Construct practice (not live constructs)
Day 07: Intro to flaring

Now, I have a question for someone. Is there any way I can see if I threw a psi ball? as in, can I set up something to knock over?
Thanks, and I hope you don't mind me putting my practice log up here.
_______________________
So it's Day 01, and I'm just beginning. Today I will use the techniques I have learned from Psi World, and others. Right now I can make a psi ball in about 32 seconds. My psi balls are really weak, and I can only feel them for a bit, before they drift off and I lose them. If I lose concentration, I lose the psi ball, too. Right now I can only feel:
-Small magnetic force,
-little, little amount of heat.
To be honest, my psi balls absolutely stink. I will keep practicing the same drill today, and record my times and put them on tomorrow's post. But for now, I leave. Any hints/tips are much appreciated.

[Mr.Experiment]

You can test throwing a Psi-Ball by aiming at a person, see if they react. Try it several times to make sure it wasnt a coincdence.

Knocking things over would be a later step and is more advanced step.

Psi Balls DAY 02
------------------
It's Day 02 and I am still practicing psi balls. I’ve been practicing for about one hour now, and I want to go on, but my hands feel like they have a million paper cuts. I tried some new methods to make big psi balls, but only one seemed to work.
M1: make about 4 four smaller psi balls in your hands, and scrunch them together. FAILED
M2: Make a construct and tell it to help with psi balls. FAILED (this may have failed because I am no good at constructs yet. I will try this method later on.)
M3: Sit there for about 30 minutes until you have so much psi in between your hands that it's already big.
The third one worked, but it was only the size of a basketball, and it wasn't to fast. MY goal was to make big psi balls fast, but...I couldn't. Yesterday and today I also recorded my times for psi ball making, they are listed:
Trial 1: 34 sec, 39 sec, 29 sec, 53 sec.
Trial 2: 43 sec, 46 sec, 32 sec, 36 sec.
I don't seem to be doing any better than yesterday (a 2 second difference) in fact I'm doing worse. The strength of the psi ball isn't getting any better, either. Tomorrow is my last day for basic psi ball making, and then I'm off to throwing them. I'll edit this post if necessary, and I'll be back tomorrow. Tips? Please?

edit: these logs are pre-made. (not, like, months ago. Maybe at around 3:00PM.) so, if 4 people gave me tips, and I keep saying "tips please?" then, you know. I wouldn't know if people gave me tips or not.
-thanks Mr. experiment for hint.

Psi Balls DAY 03
------------------
It's the end for making psi balls, and moving on to throwing them. Today in school, I tried many times to throw them at people. Here are the results: [ are=reaction, N=no reaction]
person one: 1st (n), 2nd (n), 3rd (are), 4th (n)
person two: 1st (are), 2nd (n), 3rd (are), 4th (are)
person three: 1st (n), 2nd (n), 3rd (n), 4th (n)
Well, it seems like person two either felt them, of was just itchy or something. As for the psi ball strength; nothing changed. It's still the same weak feeling I always get. The amount of time it takes hasn't changed either. So, I haven't improved at all in making them. Even in the reactions I got, they were just small scratches, so it must have felt like an itch or something. Now I am going ahead to throwing them better. I seem to be doing okay, but I could do better.

Psi Balls DAY 04
------------------
My hands have gotten better, so I've been training a lot today. I practiced for about three hours today. (taking 30 minute breaks every hour) I don't think training works for me. ;D I'm just impatient, but I don't seem to be getting any better at all. I tested throwing with my brother, who doesn't believe in psi. I only tried it once, though.
Trial one: 1, no reaction. 2, no reaction. 3, no reaction. 4, reaction*. 5, no reaction
*This reaction was a minor scratch and he turned his head a little. So impatient! But in the three hours, I've tried a method and it seemed to work with my dog. (but, you know...it a dog. Maybe a fly or something.)
1. gather psi ball. 2. focus on destination point. 3. have the psi ball materialize from your hand to the destination.
This isn't really throwing, just sending/placing. I'm tired, though. I might actually take tomorrow off of training. One day won't hurt, right?

Psi Balls DAY 05
------------------
Like I said yesterday, I'm taking a little break. But, I did do something today. I made a psi ball. yay. *sarcasm* I also kept testing out my method of sending psi balls. I tried it on my dog, and it seemed to work, but once I tried it one my brother, it didn't at all. Then after that, I meditated for about 20 minutes. It was nice. I love it.
Tomorrow I start constructs, what I've been waiting for. Tomorrow I don't have school (TGIF) so I can practice all day, but not to much. I might go meditate right now and practice more tonight, because today was full of nothing.

[Mr.Experiment]

You said it worked on your dog, but not a person.
That is usual because it is proven that animals tend to have a hieghtened sense to things like that.

Good Job and Good Luck

Psi Balls DAY 07
------------------
I didn't have enough time to write yesterday, but I have another discovery. Since Mr.Experiment said that pets are more sensitive to psi, I put it to the test. I had a tennis ball and I threw it out in my yard (my yard is big, about 13 acres.) then I let my dog out. Took her 11 minutes to find the ball. Then, I filled it with psi (It took me an hour, but I crammed it in there.) then threw it. It took her now only 2 minutes to find it. I thought it was pretty cool. I'm going to do it again tomorrow just to make sure it wasn't a coincidence. This week is going to be filled with short spurts of training, so I'm only going to update this until the week after this. Any comments/ideas are always welcome.

5.7.07

Just a random day, but I re-did that test I did two days ago. The results were more neutral.
Trial ______w/o psi______with psi
1 _________9:12 ________ 6:35
2_________5:04_________5:01 (a close one)
3_________6:54_________5:45
Right then, I was getting bored. I dunno why the results were so poor today.
Also, even though I didn't practice it, I healed my acid-reflex last night. ...well, for about 20 minutes, but that's something. Right?

5.15.07

I took a break for about a week, but now I'm getting back into meditation. A couple of days ago, I stopped it from raining by meditating in a downpour, and now I just want to keep doing it. I have this really peaceful spot where i go, I'll get a picture of it sometime.
I am now asking people this: If you have any good meditation music, please post it here. I don't have much, I only have about 3 songs that help me. If you do, please make sure I won't get sued for having it. In about 2 minutes, I'll post my favorite song. Stay tuned for an edit.

EDIT: heres the song: www.mediafire.com/?4kzx9j11pzh It's from the Hyrule Symphony. I love these songs.
if its not there, tell me. I have problems uploading these things...
Okay, this is the MP3, so it's size is more than half of the .wav I had earlier.

I just got back from my vacation, and something happened.

7.7.07

I'm vacationing in a lakeside campground with the family. For about 5 years now, there is one place I always go to everyday. It's a rock, that overlooks the entire lake. I always feel at peace on it, and I meditate on it every morning.
Anyway, this day, when I was on it, my hand just felt like it was being engulfed in flames. At first it felt hot...then it felt...unexplainable.
After that...I haven't been able to make psi balls! *music string* i don't know what it was, but it wasn't good. Please...advice? I know it's been only two days since, but I'm worried.

8.14.07

It's been over a month...day in and day out i try and try to make psi balls, but every attempt...failed. I don't know what's going on. I feel fine, I can meditate fine...I can even feel psi fine. It's jutt...I can't send it to my hands. I'm starting to wonder if this is going to be permanent. Maybe a bad month? Hmm....

[Dan]

10.2.07

My hands are recovering. I can now make a weak psiball, and I can keep it there! w00t!!!1 Other than that, I've been meditating a lot now. The most I've done is maybe 2 1/2 hours of meditation straight. i also want to get into healing and telepathy. The most I can do is read what colors people are thinking. I'll update if I get something big completed.

[Dan]

10.3.07

Hmm... i just noticed it's called "Dan's Training"...ah well.
i tried a chakra test on www.eclectricenergies.com and I got results:

Root: under-active (-13%)
Sacral: under-active (0%)
Navel: open (13%)
Heart: under-active (-13%)
Throat: open (19%)
Third Eye: open (44%)
Crown: open (31%)

So-so results. Anyway, today was great. I went for a walk in the woods, and I got lost. So, i find this big rock, and sat on it. I figured that the best thing to do is remain calm. I meditated, and right away I got some sense that something wanted me to follow it. I get up and follow this...thing. In about 4 minutes I arrive in my yard.
I don't mniow what that thing was, but it led me home. weird....

[T_Hornberger]

dude, that's awesome. i can't believe you ended up in your yard. Sweet, youd think youd end up at like at least just some familiar place, but i wouldn't think THAT familiar.
