Dear list,

The following "outline" is pretty rough. Any input? Some categories could
be combined, perhaps. Some trigger might be better put in another category

* = very strong trigger
*ed = Eastern discipline

Concentration
  *Meditation *ed
  *Prayer *ed
  Chanting *ed
  Repetitive movements
  hypnosis
  ritual
  Etc.

Aesthetic Appreciation (recognition of beauty)
  Music

What I found interesting is that Eastern and other religious disciplines make
conscious use of some aspect of almost all the categories of spontaneous
triggers I came up with i.e.

Concentration = Meditation
Aesthetics = religious art
Relaxation = prayer, ritual
Disorientation =Zen koans (cults use more drastic measures)
Trauma = fasting, flagellation
Breakthrough = Zen
Redirection of sexual energy = Tantra, celibacy
Physical activities = Hatha Yoga, etc.
Breathwork = breathwork

Love, Hillary
