Anyway, I'm waiting for someone more familiar with EFT to chime in that a resistant subconscious can be addressed using EFT techniques (which don't cost nothin' and require no technology.)

And yes, you can probably see a theme emerging in my replies--I really don't trust these techniques that tout themselves as the last refuge for people who've tried everything, require a large cash outlay, and that are sold on websites that seem as if they could be selling Amway products.
LOL. My uncle sold Amway.

As far as my meditation goes, there are lots of people who meditate much longer than that. I agree that at some point, straight meditation will offer diminishing returns. My basic approach was 20 min med/visualization at 5am, another session after lunch, a late afternoon session, and then 1/2 hour before bed. Time would vary based on what else I had going on. I still don't think that's overkill, even if it was all straight meditation w/ no visualization. But to each his own...

If you don't trust this stuff, don't try it. Pretty simple solution...
