Please share more. I would love having more descriptions of the specific way you did practice/implement the each exercise/intervention, like 1 post/vlogs per intervention so that the comments can focus on discussing only 1 per post (even the ones that might not work).

It would be valuable to me and I believe, to lots of people that need to get some hype and momentum to start experimenting.

Just enough to start learning by blindly imitating some interventions, that might lead to further down the road to tweak some of them to trigger more changes or to adapt it to fit it in our idiosyncratic lifestyle.

Learning the feelings of changes associated to some interventions will be lead to also being able to find other exercises/interventions that have a similar changing effect.

Like, experimenting with your niche tibetan metta meditation series, might lead to find some specific taste that was expressed in those and that we can find in unforeseen places.

or experimenting with your specific contracting/relaxing neck (the one I'm most interested in right now) might lead to someone finding that a simpler or stronger or just another way to trigger this feeling can be found (i.e. by finding inspiration from his idiosyncratic life; memories from random games played at childhood that achieved that; odd or missused exercise at the gym that feels that way; ...)

Indeed, I think this applies to most drugs too

Not mine, I used the ones published by QRI & Andreas (though after a debate with a friend I'd call those "phenomenological explorations" - not meditations (in the vipassana & theravada sense)
