This has merit. You guys do know this trick too?
Place the palms of your hands over your ears so your fingers wrap around the back of your head.
Set your middle fingers on the top of your neck right at the base of your skull.
Put your index fingers on top of your middle fingers and apply pressure.
Now snap them on the back of your head over and over like you’re drumming.
Repeat it about 30-50 times.
Ideally, when you pull your hands away, you won’t hear any ringing, hissing, or buzzing anymore. When I tried it, there was definitely a huge difference and bizarre inner calm that came over me. I wouldn’t say it’s a miracle trick or anything, but to experience what true quiet is even for a few minutes is amazing.
