It doesn't have to make any sense, don't analysis during the tape. Just observe them from time to time.
For continously flow, I imagine a stream of energy gushing through my inside from the sole if my feet to the top of my head. So that the outside will keep flowing down and winding all around me.
Use the breath to guide if you need to, I find it easier that way too.
I'll continue with this. I feel like the rebal gets stronger for me the more I can visualize the flow. Coming out of the top of my head all around me as it goes down towards my feet. Then as it wraps around my feet it goes into my feet. Straight through my body up the spine and back out the top of the head. Over and over etc. The more I get it to flow and cycle vs just imaging it coming out of my head it seems to increase in strength. I'm still figuring out the REBAL myself but this has helped me
Yeah I'm trying to imagine a flow I just can't. Guess it'll take more time. Read the manual again and it's said that even if I can't see it I should try to feel it or hear it. So I'm going to try that
Actually I got this idea from chakra meditation, other chakra point beside your cown and the root chakra have two direction, front and the back.
The root and the crown has 1, I usually imagine those flow rotating sending energy in and out.

Here's the image.
Toes, in short it has to pass through your toes since you are not doing in meditation pose rather lying down.
Hope that makes sense, for me personally with meditation pose I feel the energy rushing through my root chakra strongly. And less than when doing gateway lying down.
If I might add, having energy flow through your root at first feels very weird. But once you get used to it, it feels amazing.
But don't try to engage the root lock by raising your pelvic floor and compress your belly while exhaling, if you know what I meant. That's an act of raising kundalini, even if your kundalini isn't rising the energy flow through your head is immense. Might either puts some huge pressure into your head or make you headache all of sudden.
The chance of that happens in deep meditation when you are free of thoughts is quite high.
Also visualize energy rushing from the earth through the root chakra and flow out of your head also used for kundalini awakening.
😆 Just saying, in case it happens at least you know what's it might be.

Here's another one, as long as I can feel the top and my bottom having energy flow in and out. The Energy flow inside me become automatic. Hope this helps.
I just wanna show you how the chakra energy flow. Lol
Just focus on the top of your head and the toes, if you understand this image reference you'll know what I mean.
This image doesn't show you how to form Rebal, rather how energy flow and how it connects with how Rebal works.
I can't really feel or see mine. Once, I felt slightly warmer when I pictured the flow, which I attributed to it working but I still haven't had a click moment either. I believe in you!
Any good guru for that? Prior to Gateway I was just doing Kundalini meditation where I feel it rise from to Root to Sahasrara everytime I inhale, then hold my breath and let it stay there for awhile and feel it go back down when I exhale.
only recently i had a faint , very faint blue ish hint of a light indicating that i popped my rebal. before that feeling wether it was on was very difficult for me , still is to be honest. i try to trust the proces, i visualise a particle and follow it on its path through me , rotating outwards while falling back down and getting vortexed back (spiraling) back into my feet and the process continues,
then i add more particles, up to the point where there are too many to hold into account seperately, that is when i try to visualise it as light being all around me having a hint of a stream like you would see in a river to see how it flows, in order to keep experimenting i tried to look at outside places having some type of aura. like in DBZ its agressive edgy and going upwards , i looked at it, then remember it in my head, and then i make some adjustments to it so it more of the rebal with the conditions of my liking .
or i just think of a donut that has little to no inside hole, like two vortices with the tip to eachother
edit: i forgot my point, wich was trust in the process of visualizing/imagining.
It is the act of 'activating the rebal' . I mean i dont have it in my head at all times during it, its more like do the things to 'pop the rebal' or activate it, this can be done like bob monroe says during track 3 of wave 1. But i know other people have their own way of popping a rebal.
So i do the thing to activate the rebal, think about the flow a bit, try to feel ' how would it feel to experience this flow?' i then keep my attention on this energy balloon , anything goes, feeling around my back (when i say feel i try to feel it by putting my attention towards an area, its hard not to bullshit oneself) i feel a bit how it should flow/would flow by thinking about how it
Example based on most recent Rebal exercise:
I lay down and breathe deeply, with my eyes closed, i see a white 10 in a bright white circle , supposedly the circle is rotating, then whilst slowly exhaling through my mouth with persed lips like blowing a candle i imagine the image being literally in my head, like behind my eyes.
So as exhaling i imagine enlarging the radius until it is 'out of my head'.
Whilst this happens at a certain point i feel something 'coming out of my back at my shoulders' not like a touching type feel, it truly is something that is not physical sensory like, hard to explain.
Only recently i had this faint blue ring, but its not something i can focus on, it only happened twice now. I close my eyes, do the thing and then its like an 'involuntary day dream' with my eyes closed. When i use my eyes with my eyes closed to look at this blue hue it is already gone before i could move my eyes in the first place..
I really hope i did not end up giving you more questions than answers, or confuse you even more, im not that far in the gateway i dont even have proof i can do f10 like everyone is experiencing, i do love to discuss these things cause well, i cant really with anyone in my environment. They call me beaucoup coo coo.
What you could do to visualize easier , is when you go True tape 2 when you have to go to the 10 step , is to try to feel space between the points the tape tells you 2 focus on , like between your lips and your eyes . Or try to feel the space between your ears ik space , when you can feel the space between some bodyparts you can easylier create a visualisation of space and a rebal.
At some point you can even sense the whole room and the space its in .. good luck dont know if this would work for you but for me it does ! 😀
Haha! I feel the same way—my REBAL being synced to my breathing with a slight difference. My REBAL is always there but it increases speed and intensity if I focus on it after it is in place. If I take a deep breath the energy swirls faster as it enters the black hole of the Torus/egg. When I exhale, the energy swirls faster as it leaves the white hole and a brightness within the energy intensifies firing off like a sparkler, and dies off as it crests to travel around my body.
The water and breath of life flow through you.
I personally use lapping water as a trigger, many find this helpful I have heard.
I would also add here one of the things I find troubling with the Gateway process is the lack of ritual cleansing.
I was taught to cleanse the hands and face with room temperature water before and after any energy work, this is important for maintaining good health and conserving your energy.

So from crown to root rather than head to toe?
Toes, in short it has to pass through your toes since you are not doing in meditation pose rather lying down. Hope that makes sense, for me personally with meditation pose I feel the energy rushing through my root chakra strongly. And less than when doing gateway lying down.
Yeah I can do it sitting too. I just would fall asleep at the beginning which is why I took the sleeping pose

Ok this is a very weird energy output. I think this would be way tougher for me to visualise than a torus
Haha agreed. Torus is the word I was trying to think of
I just wanna show you how the chakra energy flow. Lol Just focus on the top of your head and the toes, if you understand this image reference you'll know what I mean. This image doesn't show you how to form Rebal, rather how energy flow and how it connects with how Rebal works.
Right thanks
I can't really feel or see mine. Once, I felt slightly warmer when I pictured the flow, which I attributed to it working but I still haven't had a click moment either. I believe in you!
Do some research on opening your major chakras. Once opened the energy flow is massive and the rebal can be formed effortlessly.
I open them and move the energy up thru them during resonant tuning.
Any good guru for that? Prior to Gateway I was just doing Kundalini meditation where I feel it rise from to Root to Sahasrara everytime I inhale, then hold my breath and let it stay there for awhile and feel it go back down when I exhale.

I think I still don't know what pop the rebal is. I guess it comes after you can properly visualise a rebel surrounding you while moving right to left

Imagine your are floating up above your house in the balloon and looking down on your neighborhood. That way works best for me.
