So, going to try this next: listening ECC on Friday (today is washing out though) + RICH on Sundays, at 5s each. If it works, I’ll add a bit more frequency, then will work on duration
I gotta make it work, I’m sure I can. Don’t want to deviate from my stack any more times, if I have to build up from 1s, so be it
I do have great results, I want to keep snowballing them
10h of sleep, and sleepy all day generally, had vivid dreams and feeling lots of doubt and like I Don’t understand anything lol
but productivity is back
so, I just couldn’t wait to test the theory of 5s loops so I did a loop of ECC on Friday. I guess there still was some processing going from 7m loops but as I mentioned, I was quite productive today, energy levels were great despite sleepiness, and recon was very manageable
I guess I’ll test it with RICH tomorrow, and see what’s up, but I guess I’m very near finding my duration sweet spot
I think this is it actually, 5 sec + 1 sub per listening day don’t seem to cause productivity loss
insane how little exposure I actually need.
I also want to run The Stabilizer but given my current processing limits, it makes more sense to just work with my current stack for a few months before making any changes, I think. Currently considering adding The Stabilizer in September, maybe?
Also the good thing is that I haven’t even had any thoughts of switching ECC/RICH, sub hopping doesn’t seem to be a problem anymore, and I’m really glad I don’t have to fight the desire to switch stack anymore lol
I wonder if it’s the result of exposure management, new tech or my own actions (which ones?)
@heartmadeiron let’s switch to my journal, I don’t want to derail Judoka’s one
what exactly are your concers? I don’t have any other headphones but I can try iPhone 15 speakers I guess
Also, I didn’t have these recon problems with older subs while using these exact headphones, and I was (and still am) getting results
This review should sum up everything wrong:
well, that hurt lol
Do you think using iPhone 15 speakers would be better than using these for subs?
lots of comments saying these headphones are good enough though
They’re good for causal listening (that’s literally how they’re marketed) but those issue could affect subliminal usage. Do you get headaches when you’re listening to sub?
no, never
@William could you please summarize your experience with LBFH? I remember you loved this sub, I’m currently looking at the new version…
I received & experienced every single thing in the old description of the sub.
Every single paragraph, every single point of objective, every single explanation.
Personally, LBFH taught me most about healthy attachment and deeper levels of self love that I didn’t even know was possible.
It built a solid foundation for every other subs i’ve used. I can’t imagine how hard it would be to run DR without LBFH first.
I’m reading the new description too now. Very exciting!
Thanks!
@heartmadeiron I decided to test your theory about me having recon due to headphones.
I’ll keep listening ECC + RICH at 5s with my current headphones but will try new LBFH with iPhone speakers.
If I see that I don’t have as much recon with LBFH, I’ll test RICH and ECC on phone speakers too, and if the recon issue is solved, I’ll have to buy new headphones 
feeling weird so far. Pretty much exactly the same to this journal entry:
going on a long washout. Zero desire to resume listening at the moment
already 5d into washout, and deep in integration mode. Feeling like I don’t understand anything and am back to square zero
decided to kind of restart the whole process and choose easier subs for now because lately my struggles with recon were ridiculous lol. Also support told me that ECC is almost like 2 subs because of Crown and Capital parts, so turns out the effect is like I was always using 3-4 subs lol
So yeah, I figured I’ll do OG Emperor + RICH for now, and then somewhere in the future, I’ll use ECC. Guess I just wasn’t ready lol
Also gonna be using it once every 4-7 days for now to focus more on action taking
This stack works quite good. No destructive recon like previously even with more “serious” durations (10-15s)
Also new RICH smoothes out Emperor because of adaptive scripting and anti recon tech so it’s ultra smooth for now
Also taking so many rest days works too. I’m considering reducing it later to 3-4 days instead of one week
