how often do you cry

[AtheisticNonduality]

A few times every year.

[Nahm]

A year from now there will be a thread asking, “how many days can you go without crying”. 

That’ll be beautiful.

@Nahm is crying needed for a healthy ... life ?

[Nahm]

@levani

No.

@levani why do you want to cry? Is this about more than just crying? Or is this a random question? 

Recently I don't cry very much, but I used to cry a lot. 

--

When I was younger I used to have the ability to cry on the spot. As a fun acting skill, but I never used it to manipulate, just a fun trick. The trick is to just create very specific internal thoughts and feelings to cry. Finding a specific trigger or internal image/thought that makes you cry.

But as I got older and have had all sorts of mental health and psychological disorder changes, I don't find it so easy. Trying it now. I can get my eyes to water, but I can't get more than a small tear or 2. But I'm happy I still got it!

I created this guided visualization / guided journey with the intention of invoking the crying response.  Of course you'll have to make it to the end to see if if works ? it is targeted towards, and I think enjoyable to, the kids in all of us.
