Are there any paranormal practices, methods or beings that can

>Cure aphantasia

>Help acquire synesthesia

Practise! your brain isn't broken, it just is a weak muscle. Sit and try to imagine a rose every day for 10 minutes.

Try and imagine touching it, compare it to when you touch one in real life, imagine it's smoooth, velvet like petals, the stiff stalk and so on.

Practise, practise, practise. It will come.

About synesthesia: Steve Richards says that once you have developed "psychic sight", you might also begin to "see sounds and hear colours". Chapter 5 (page 54) of his book on invisibility, "How to Extend your Sight", explains how you can develop psychic sight.

I'm not sure it's possible to cure aphantasia, since nobody seems to understand what causes it. A few people seem to have had limited success when using psychedelics/hallucinogenics. Do you have a partial visualisation ability or no visualisation at all? If it's partial, maybe exercise could help.

I can create pretty weak images (with open eyes and music) from time to time but normally there is nothing.

Thanks.

>>28642

I'll try, thanks.

You literally don't visualize my dude, that's the whole point. Proprioception/kinesthesia is the only sense I can simulate with ease.

If I close my eyes, I can imagine how I'ld have to move my head and how it'ld feel to physically look at my bed, but I don't have a concept of what the visual input would be.

I know what's there, I can draw it(to the extent that i can draw), but I do it by going through a more abstract list of the objects and sorting out their spatial relationships. There's no picture in my head that I'm trying to put down, and if I have to sort out spatial relationships internally, it's by imagining where i'ld have to move my eyes/hands to view/touch the objects.

Similarly, there's no sense of hearing. Inner monologue runs off of how it'ld feel to say the word or just straight subvocalizing it. (that part is probably normal?). For other sounds though the best I can manage is throwing fancy onomatopoeia into my monologue.

No external sense of touch.

However, after a bunch of practice I can manage recalling taste/smell. It takes a lot of concentration and only lasts a split second, but it's better than just imagining how chewing feels(which is how i trigger it).

>>28642 looks about right. it seems like a deeply ingrained habit that you can practice your way out of if you want to.
