Protection against prolonged sun exposure
Please do a podcast on how to properly protect ourselves from prolonged sun exposure! I am a mail carrier in Louisiana on a 10 mile walking route. There are conflicting views on sunblock. Is it betrer to wear lightweight long sleeved clothing? Also, can all day use of sunglasses send the wrong signals to our body causing our skin to burn easily?
Peripheral Vision
At one time you were working on a way to train to improve something about peripheral vision that you used lights in a dark room. I am very interested in that endeavor. You made a comment about that in passing and didn't say anything else about that project. I believe you said that in a podcast by Coach Tony Blauer quite a while back as peripheral vision was discussed in the context of self-defense and being able use peripheral vision to spot attackers. I am training with Coach Blauer and I believe that would be a good training tool. Is there any way I can get anything about that -- anything that has been released or anything you have?
Follow up question about training peripheral vision
Are there training methods or tools already available for me to improve my peripheral vision? Particularly, I would like to be able to train for self defense, like being able to detect threats (presumably a person or persons). I understand peripheral vision calls our mind to attention on any movement. I have tried to observe whether color makes a difference, and other possible factors such as how much light where, light source visible like the bulb showing brighter than the rest of the environment that receives light from it, context (like when I'm walking at night on the sidewalk beside a busy road. I will accept and appreciate anything you can give me.
"Seeing" & feeling certain things with eyes closed
I was told by the instructor in a psychology class in college that the Army conducted an experiment in which male subjects (I take it soldiers currently serving) sat with their eyes kept shut; were shown pictures of women. They were not told that they would be shown pictures of women. They were not told that pictures of women would be "shown" them. Later they reported with embarrassment that they were oddly sexually aroused during the experiment when their eyes had been continuously shut. What can you tell us about this -- the science and hopefully how this experiment could be of value and to whom they would be of value? Perhaps the religious might learn something about this, since the religious would likely not want to be sexually aroused at times they don't consider it appropriate to be sexually aroused.
