Increasing blood flow is likely exactly what the Shakti system is doing.

It is similar to the magstim glasses used with the pRoshi and those do increase blood flow in the area targeted by the magnetic pulses.

Just because I didn't see any other responses to your thought.... ;-)

And to John's original question -- some pRoshi users do have the Shakti system and use it with the pRoshi. You could ask there about their experiences with it...

we are discussing be doing something similar by directing the blood
flow to other areas of the brain? just wondering.

Hi, I dont think I was clear that when I said that some entrainment and NF can mimic drugs that I meant addictive drugs (both street and legal). In other words...
