          i tried it sitting down and didn’t notice any difference.

          Then i tried it standing up and the only difference i noticed
          was my stomach muscles completely relaxed, perhaps it works
          better standing up. Perhaps my stomach muscles relaxed simply by
          lifting my arms up and this exercise is a load of mumbo jumbo.

          Some other people have reported back headaches, if thats the case,
          it must be doing something either in a good way or a bad way.

          When i was in my twenties i was so stressed out with work,
          i went to a hypnotherapist, he recomended a minimum number of
          sessions (to line his pockets) and then told me i could go away
          and hypnotise myself to destress and would no longer need his
          services. Ok, it felt uncomfortable being in a slightly darkened
          room with your eyes shut and a complete stranger talking in a boring
          monotonous tone droning on and on.

          But i went in with an open mind, and after the first session, a weight lifted off my mind, then i went back once a week for the rest of the sessions, to be honest i didn’t notice any difference before and after each session.

          I think it was a placebo effect, i was expecting a change, so my mind
          engineered a change, and it had nothing to do with the hypnotherapy,
          otherwise i would have noticed a change everytime i went.
