Preparing forONTO NOTHING- how to get an internship

You didn’t come to this instruction from the street.

You have already come a long way and made a series of check-ups:

• Mental Self / Six Self(required) - figured out which memeplexes your “I” is made of.
• Rhythms of Life— I saw what your life consists of: spheres, values, how you plan and how you live.
• Checkup on Neiry(if you did) - learned your neuroplasticity, brain rhythms, how your attention works.
• Reflectionfor the entire check-in period - it is also taken into account, in the general context.

Each of these steps once again showed you your “I” - from different sides, with an increasing number of facts and details. They weren't warm-ups. They were the assembly of the picture in which you now stand.

Now in front of you - instructions beforeONTO NOTHING. The purpose of this instruction is to help you prepare your mind and body for what will happen during the practice itself.

ONTO NOTHING - neurotechnology, not meditation

This is not "relaxation". Thisneurotechnology based on neurophenomenology. Accurate. Working. Specific tasks:

• annihilation of the mental self— the same memeplexes that you uploaded and saw at previous stages;
• stopping the mind;
• complete stop of internal dialogue;
• radical decrease in beta rhythms.

And - exit to total NOTHING. With the ability to activate it as a physiological skill. You can return to it at any time. Access "here and now". With verification using an encephalograph.

Without esotericism: at the end you have the choice to manage yourself. Your condition, the rhythm of the brain, the rhythm of the heart, the rhythm of life. And verify it scientifically.

Technology works differently at different ages

The older a person is, the more stable the memeplexes collected over his life. They last longer, are more tightly woven, and have more weight. Annihilation is possible at any age, butdepth and dynamics will be different.

A simple illustration: the same person who completed ONTO NOTHING at 18 years old and at 45–50 years old results in two completely different results. And that's okay. This is not “you didn’t succeed” and not “you did worse.” This is the structure of the psyche in time.

That's why:

• do not compare your experience with the experience of a younger participant - your starting positions in terms of memeplex density are different;
• don’t compare with your past self - you didn’t do the same practice at 25 and you won’t do it anymore, because that you is no longer there.

Just go to your point. From it - the maximum.

What to be afraid of (and why it's normal)

What you will encounter at the entrance:

1. Fear of “what if I don’t succeed.”
2. Fear “what if it works out, but not like that.”
3. Fear “what if it works out and it turns out to be scary.”

All three are normal. And all three pass if you understand what is really happening.

Preparation the day before

State and behavior

• Emotional background.Don’t get into conflicts, don’t shake yourself emotionally, don’t have difficult conversations. If something has accumulated, put it aside for after practice.
• No alcohol.At least 24 hours before. Alcohol changes the EEG and distorts the baseline. The measurement will be unfair.
• No new stimulants or additives.No nootropics, new vitamins, dietary supplements that you usually don’t take. Just your usual routine.
• Caffeine.The last coffee/tea is no later than lunch the day before. Morning practice - no caffeine.
• If you smoke.The last cigarette is no later than 30 minutes before the start of practice. You are not allowed to smoke during practice.
• Physical activity.Regular or lighter. No intense training or sparring the day before - muscle artifacts are reflected in the EEG.

Food and water

• At night - no meat or heavy food.Light dinner 3-4 hours before bedtime.
• In the evening - something light and healthy.Yogurt, something with bifidobacteria, a green smoothie. Don't overeat.
• Water.Drink as normal all day. The water balance should be ready by morning. Dehydration affects concentration and the progress of practice.

Content in your head

• Book.If you haven’t finished reading “The Big Bang of Consciousness” yet, do it before practice.
• Your reports.Re-read your previous reports and analyzes on your own. This makes it easier to work with your own mental “I” during practice.

Documents and data

• NDA and framework agreement.Before the start of practice - signed and sent. Electronic signature is accepted.
• Questionnaire.Completed and sent.
• Confirmation of mental readiness.There will be a short test/questionnaire before practice. This is about your safety and legal confirmation that you informed us about your condition.
• Uploading physiology.If the first session, an upload has been sent from the fitness tracker for the last 3–6 months (CSV to the bot, via the CSV upload button).

Agreements with people

Agree with everyone who might bother you that you are off limits at this time. So that you don't have a single thought to grab your phone. This is critical - the thought “need to check” ruins the entire input.

Space

• Room.Prepare a room that no one will enter for three hours.
• Air.Ventilate it. Adequate temperature is 20–22 °C.
• Light.Muted, a bit dark. The curtains are closed.
• Silence.No background noise.
• No aromatics.No aroma sticks, essential oils, incensebefore and duringpractices. After practice and a walk - please. I'll give a signal.

Technique

• Charging devices.Fully charge: Neiry, Garmin/fitness tracker, phone, laptop, headphones, voice recorder.
• Checking applications.Capsula is open, updated, tested. Mind Tracker BCI works. Garmin synced. The recorder has been checked.
• Test measurement.If you have never done a test measurement with a neurobend, do it the day before. 30 minutes without thoughts in the EEG, checking that the signal is clear.

Dream

Go to bed earlier than usual.Minimum 7 hours, preferably 7.5–8.This is not a wish, this is a condition - without sleep you will not be able to carry the cognitive load to the end.

How to enter the day correctly

• Don't grab your phone.Don't touch it immediately after waking up. No news, chats, social networks. The head must be clear.
• Water immediately.Drink water the first minute after waking up. Prepare a bottle - it should be nearby during practice.
• Charger.Before starting practice, definitely. Stretching, joint exercises, short training. Don't go into the process crumpled.
• Shower.Before practice. Not immediately before - 30–40 minutes before.
• Breakfast.Easy. 1–2 hours before the session. Not on an empty stomach and not immediately after eating - both of these distort the physiology of the measurement.
• Decaffeinated.Coffee, black/green tea, matcha, energy drinks - no. Only water or herbal tea.
• No meditation before.Don’t try to “tune in”, “calm down”, “get into a state” on purpose. You need your natural morning state, without preparation. Any presetting spoils the data.
• No expectations.Don't expect anything. Nobody promises or guarantees anything. What will happen will happen.
• Time.Set aside three hours. No calls, messages, notifications.
• Cloth.Comfortable and light. Shorts are better than jeans. A loose T-shirt is better than anything that pulls on your shoulders. Socks/barefoot - how comfortable.
• Things for a walk.Prepare in the evening: sneakers, comfortable clothes, an umbrella in case of rain. Immediately after practice - a walk in any weather.

How to use the tracker and neuroband

An important point about order. Practice does not equal one continuous EEG measurement. It has phases.

Body position

Sit comfortably - a chair with back support or an armchair. Your back is straight, your shoulders are soft, your feet are on the floor. Clothes do not constrict or block.

Window of neuroplasticity - everything is imprinted

• Immediately - phenomenology.Don't stand up silently. Write down in voice or text what remains: sensations in the body, images, thoughts, what was most important. Until it gets cold.
• Don't discuss it right away.Before you have fixed yours, do not talk to others about what happened. Someone else's interpretation will erase yours.
• Walk.Immediately after fixing, go outside. There will be a separate task for the walk.
• Water.Have a drink.
• Easy day.No urgent matters, active work, obligations. Practice takes place on Saturday precisely for this purpose.
• Light food.No heavy stuff, no alcohol, no stimulants for the rest of the day.
• No heavy content.News, arguments in chats, heavy films, conflict calls - no. The brain is now in a window of neuroplasticity.
• You can use aromatics and pleasant stimulants.After the walk and my signal - sticks, essential oils, aromas, soft music. Optional.
• Uploading data.On the same day: CSV from Capsula → to the bot, “MNPI” tab → desired session → upload CSV. The audio recording is there too. This is part of the research; the delay breaks the time series for the group.
• Evening.Don't stay on your phone. When you want to sleep, put away your phone, turn on a new skill and fall asleep.
• Sleep earlier than usual.This is not a whim. Skill consolidation occurs during sleep, especially in the deep sleep phase.

Second day data

• Immediately after waking up - fixation.By voice or text: what remains from yesterday, what you dreamed about, what is the first feeling in your body, what is the first word in your head. This is the data from the second day.
• Don't compare to "regular".Don’t judge – “better/worse”, “stronger/weaker”. Just record what is there.
• Morning reflection in the bot.Fill out the morning slice. This is step 1 of MNPI management - without it, the analysis loses half the context.
• Next is the usual morning routine.You return to your rhythm, but with a new skill in your pocket.

Go through the points - don't miss anything
