I haven't finished the second book yet. I didn't really care that much that Syrio most likely died until I watch the show and see you. Now all I do is hope Syrio lived so that I can continue to see your amazing hair in the show.

Hi! I have a quick follow up question to this if you don't mind.

What happens if a patient is in unstable condition? Are you allowed to resuscitate without payment?

Anxiety is the mental perception of the chemical/hormonal changes the body experiences from the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activating the "fight or flight" response.

Deep, measured breathing is known to promote the body's parasympathetic nervous system (PNS), evoking the "rest and digest" state.

Under the influence of anxiety, the SNS has a lot of momentum, like a wheel spinning fast to the left. Evoking the PNS can put the breaks on the wheel, and eventually allow it to come to a halt, which means the body will stop elevsting its levels of adrenaline and cortisol. Then those levels have to start falling, and that can take a while. In fact it begins by seeing the rate of increase begin to slow down, so you're still getting more stress hormone for a but before the levels will plane out and then drop.

The "trick" is to trust the process. Know that the deep breathing you're doing right now might take five to ten minutes to start really having a noticeable effect. Just keep pumping the breaks and know that you'll slow down.

The trick isn't to stop your mind entirely either, just to not forget about your breathing.

This monk does a great job of explaining meditation in this context

Your cover of River Flows in You blew me away and inspired me to get serious about learning guitar, and I can't thank you enough for that. I've watched so many of your videos so many times to learn from your techniques.

If you wouldn't mind, I'd love to ask you some questions about practice techniques and drills to really get proficient at right hand techniques.

• I've been using just the flesh of my fingers to pluck the strings. Should I get finger picks? Is just a thumb pick good too?
• What exercises do you feel are most effective for building thumb independence?
• How do you prefer to alternate fingers while strumming the same string?
• What you you recommend for switching quickly between strumming chords and picking strings?

Your wisdom is greatly appreciated. It's amazing to think with the internet I get a chance to ask a guitar master personalized questions.
