1
I came across this meditation by Jose Silva.
2
He was instructing us to turn our eyes upwards during meditation.
3
There was a spot in the middle of my forehead,
4
intense concentration as though my brain was on fire.
5
We were instructed to wait for three days for any instruction.
6
I was working with a YouTube agency at the time.
7
Day one, nothing happens.
8
Day two, nothing happens.
9
Day three, I get a message from my account manager.
10
Hey, Quasi, I'm sorry to say this, but I'm quitting.
11
The owner of the agency will come and manage your account.
12
So I was like, oh,
13
maybe it's a sign that I need to leave.
14
But something told me to not do it.
15
And I took a meeting with the founder of the agency.
16
He literally came in with so much knowledge about my channel.
17
Prior to that, we were doing around 200,000 views per month.
18
The first video that we make together,
19
half a million views within seven days.
20
After that point, I was like,
21
holy shit, this really works.
22
And the key thing about this meditation is bringing your attention to this eye,
23
but also focusing on the one obstacle that you feel stuck with and focus on its solution.

Practice Tips

To effectively enhance your English fluency using the shadowing technique, consider using a reliable shadowing app or shadowing site that allows you to practice along with native speakers. Start by listening to the transcript at a slower pace, and repeat each sentence immediately after the speaker. This will help you grasp the tonal nuances and improve your overall speaking skills. Focus particularly on the pauses in the speech; they provide ideal moments to practice your intonation. As you gain confidence, gradually increase the playback speed to better emulate natural speech rhythms. This progression is particularly beneficial for those involved in IELTS speaking practice, where clarity and fluency are crucial.

Additionally, take time to reflect on the message behind the transcript: overcoming obstacles and seizing opportunities. Consider using the vocabulary words listed above in your own sentences during practice. This will not only reinforce your learning but also make your spoken English more expressive and engaging.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
