The passage of time during sessions seems extrordinarily fast to me. Is this common? 15 minutes seems like only a few minutes of non-session time.
Also, I don't seem to need to look at a clock at this point, at 15 minutes I just know it. I guess that should be normal though.
Don't see as many images anymore but the annoying chatter continues to be loud. Your advice to just return to the syllable sends it away for a while. It is definitely a "back and forth" between the thoughts and the syllable. Knowing that helps me take effort out of the session.
Things continue to improve as far as I can see. People voluntarily tell I look more relaxed. They are not aware of anything on my part so that is interesting.
