Try to create mind-muscle connections to face muscles. While stoned I've had good luck finding these connections (to glutes, hip flexors, abs, etc years ago when I had to fix my posture). In the past I had to turn my head upside-down or massage my face. It's a nice sensation, like a milder version of any other activity that feels relieving. For me at least it feels like the inside of the roof of my mouth or the stuff right behind my nostrils is being pulled back into my skull and all the pressure equalizes. Sometimes pushing these muscles upward or outward is required for me but I don't usually have to focus on it after making them manual adjustment. I confirmed my face is not changing in the mirror, and when I do engage external facial muscles it's less effective.

You're trying to become a Bene Gesserit?

You mean you can't put yourself into bindu suspension if you get buried in a landslide?

Wait like connecting facial muscles/sensations to beneficially engage other muscles?

I once went to the doctor because my eyes hurt. My eyes were fine, these on the other hand...

As Juice says: don't drill a hole in your head.

[–] Taster_Of_Treats@hexbear.net 8 points 2 weeks ago

I mean that is true here, but I think they mean your brain rather than your sinuses.

[–] Weedian@hexbear.net 13 points 2 weeks ago

I had a terrible sinus block once that made my top back teeth hurt soooooo bad it was the worst

Restate my assumptions: One, Mathematics is the language of nature. Two, Everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers. Three: If you graph the numbers of any system, patterns emerge. Therefore, there are patterns everywhere in nature.

That damn frontal sinus tho. Trans girls, amirite?

[–] lil_tank@hexbear.net 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You mean the frontal sinus is, like, more prominent on AMAB bodies? Just curious!

Exactly! For those who have a really prominent brow, it's a really invasive surgery to reduce it.

Relatable ~~for many reasons~~
