Anyone’s pets react strangely around you while you’re doing the tapes?
I’ve recently been going through Wave I again after having taken a few months’ break (initially got to Wave III but got a little spooked while doing a tape during a ketamine therapy session; ill-advised, I know).
I’ve been doing the tapes at home, and my cat, who isn’t the most cuddly, will walk right up to me if I’m doing a tape, lay in my lap, stare at me and start purring like a motor. He does this when I do my breathwork separate from Gateway as well, but otherwise, he isn’t much of a lap cat.
Last night, I was on Wave I, Tape 5, and while going through Resonant Tuning, my cat suddenly appeared out of nowhere, starting biting me, and was looking around the room, really jittery and jumpy. He was looking right over my shoulder for a while and his pupils were massively dilated. He doesn’t get super skittish, although he is a young cat and has spurts of high energy. But it was just really odd. It was getting late and I had already done Tape 4 so I paused for the night and didn’t continue with Tape 5, and he stopped, but continued following me around the house and looking all around, super alert and hyper vigilant.
Could be reading into normal cat behavior, but it just seemed odd. Anyone else get reactions from their pets? Is this a negative thing, or just some sort of mechanical reaction of sorts?
