Yea, the article quickly lost my attention so i scrolled to the bottom and read the last 2 paragraphs hoping for a meaningful answer to the articles question, but no luck. Can someone who has the time to read this summarize it for the rest of us?

has never been the New Yorker house style.

I agree more how would be a treat. I assume Kozhevnikov’s agreement to keep the how confidential was an impediment.

But a couple things I noted:

* G-tummo meditation, she went on, is not a state of relaxation but arousal. She thinks it may increase blood flow to the brain. G-tummo is difficult, requiring years of dedication to master.

* Try “visualizing your fingers in hot water, or yourself in a hot environment,”

There is more how in the corresponding Plos one article https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal...

Perhaps our natural inability to control our low-level biological systems is on average better at keeping us alive. After all, if we could control any system without really understanding all the interactions and repercussions, we probably would die accidentally more often.
