Jay August 1, 2014 Share August 1, 2014 While not necessary, meditation is used as a means to improve focus and visualization while forcing. Visualization can be done with your eyes opened or closed, and in any physical posture given it's comfortable enough for you. Many people decide to create a persistent wonderland, like a general hang-out place where they can interact with their tulpas, but you can also imagine yourself in a different location every time you practice. Check out the Guides section; I'm sure there are a few dealing with meditation, focus and visualization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Manga August 1, 2014 Share August 1, 2014 As part of the minority who don't use them, I feel like I should bring up that Wonderlands aren't always necessary. They help pretty much everyone who use them yeah, but you could be like me and find that they just end up complicating things for you and you can work out a different solution. I'm not telling you to give up, just remember that it doesn't work well for everyone and there are alternatives if you decide it's not for you. If you want general tips though, look in the guides. I will say though that meditation helps a lot for ANY forcing, specifically pranayama meditation. Even just five to ten minutes before forcing helps a lot. You can look up how to do it but its pretty simple. Get comfortable (I recommend the half lotus pose) and breath in deeply through your nose and don't think about anything except the details of your breathing. Become aware of the breath, focus on it, feel it, try not to think about anything else. It gets easier, trust me. Go look at my art? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fennecgirl August 1, 2014 Share August 1, 2014 You just imagine yourself there. It isn't as complicated as you think. I come out of hibernation once in a blue moon. They/them pronouns, please.

King of Manga August 1, 2014 Share August 1, 2014 That's what I ended up doing. I find it more direct and 'me' but I do get to miss out on all of those wonderland adventures I keep hearing so much about. Ah well, I don't find it too much a loss. Go look at my art?
