Can you make your face red and swollen?

[Guillaume]

It took me a minute to figure out, I used to do that as a kid spontaneously but it's been a long long time I haven't.

Don't do it if you have any condition, especially high blood pressure.

Does anyone know if it has benefits? Like : "I did it everyday for a month and this happened".
There must be a reason why we can do it, and why every kid does it.

[hazada guess]

IMO,it raises the blood pressure to your head,like when you get angry.I couldn't see it having any benefits.

In the 112 ways to enlightenment given by Shiva (there are many sources idk which one is right), I found:

Contracting the opening of the ear, anus and penis, hear the soundless-sound.

Stopping ears by pressing and the rectum by contracting, enter the sound.

It's similar imo.

These would not increase blood pressure or do what you said about swelling the face.
But, experiencing the Soundless sound, the Unstruck strings, the Music of the Spheres...it does help....but are all unnecessary.
The Sound is all around...quiet the mind and listen. :)

If you want to at the beginning ...put your clean fingers in your ears, sure..
or earplugs. and just listen...until you become attuned.
Just to add - I have been listening to Celestial Harmonies since 1972.
Sweet.

Reminds me - talking to small groups I would ask ---
"How many are aware of the clock ticking on the wall?"
(No one was, lol) ---Then they focused - it was there all along! :)
Same with The Sound Current.

lol yes, I'm on the opposite side of that spectrum in general, I've had more issues about hearing background noises and sounds than not noticing them :)

I could do it as a kid but don't fancy trying it now,other things I could do was,wiggle ears,make fingers look double jointed,stand on head but I couldn't whistle with fingers in my mouth like many could.

So I have several experiences....
1) plenty of rouge ( make up..crucial for a teen )..
2) face paint ...
3) hold your breath till you nearly drop dead
4) do what my oldest brother did to my youngest brother just for fun, pinned him down and coveted his face in love bites LOL
5) pinch your own face between finger and thumb till it's red raw
6) wear a red Halloween devil mask
7) get someone to slap your face several times ( or do it yourself )
8) catch a disease and get a temperature
9) embarrass yourself (instant red face)
10) go back to 1) and start again...

LOL.... Hope this helps .

I don't love bites, but I can understand some people do

7) get someone to slap your face several times ( or do it yourself )

Awakening!
