What would you say is the synesthesia part though? When it happens I can see things, like my hands, the room around me etc. not “shapes” or “colors” or anything.
Yeah, that wouldn’t be synesthesia, and I’m not exactly sure what it would be. What I do know is that we don’t have enough understanding of how how our brains work, and we need more research on stuff like this. Is it a positive or negative experience when it happens to you?
I think it’s pretty cool. The first time it happened I thought I was just “naturally tripping”. Or that I had a “super power”. But after the second or third time I just felt like it couldn’t be a thing only I ever experienced. So I searched online and found some people talking about it, their experiences very similar to mine, and eventually someone linked to the video I shared above and talked about the secret Thai royal martial art. All in all, I feel it’s indeed an ability all humans can have. I’m not sure on the mechanics of it, but if even blind people can “see” like this, I feel it must be something more than just “seeing” with the eyes closed, you know?
