Journey
to Wild Divine
I guess the last time I was totally blown
away by a game was back in 1985 when I bought my first computer -- an
Apple IIc -- and then spent over a
month's worth of my spare time exploring the underground world of Infocom's
synapse-crunching adventure game, Zork.
Well, as I write
these words in mid-April of 2008, I've been having the same kind of goosebump
experiences with The Wild Divine Project's inner-active adventure for
mind and body, Journey to Wild Divine.
Unlike
traditional computer games, Journey to Wild Divine
incorporates a biofeedback unit called the Light Stone that allows the
story and events of the game to unfold based on your brain activity,
blood pressure, muscle tension, heart rate and other critical bodily functions.
Stop for a second
and let that one sink it.
Yes, this is a
computer adventure game that you not only control and influence with your
intellect by figuring out what to do next, but it's also an inner-active journey
that reacts in different ways depending on your
- brain activity
- blood pressure
- muscle tension
- heart rate
- and other
critical bodily functions.
Tell me that
isn't just about the coolest thing you've heard recently?
You see, the
Journey to Wild Divine'sinnovative
biofeedback hardware measures your skin conductance level (SCL) and your heart
rate variability through three "Magic Ring" sensors gently attached to your
fingers. The measurements are registered through the Light Stone and fed
back to you through biofeedback "events" on the screen.
Absolutely Stunning Graphics
Wearing the three
finger sensors, you move through enchanting and mystical landscapes using
the power of your thoughts, feelings, breath and awareness.
The graphics in
Journey to Wild Divine are
breath-taking in places and simply stunning in others. The colors are so intense
in places they practically shimmer.
If you put the
lights down low or (as I do) play the game at night with all room lights turned
off, you'll feel as if the normal world dropped away when you entered the
visually stunning world created by the Wild Divine graphic artists.
I've not been
this impressed with graphics since the first time I played the original
Myst when it first came out for our Macintosh.
And the music...
Whoa, talk about
theme-appropriate music that's both beautiful and peaceful.
If you're into
uplifting music, you're going to enjoy the atmospheric sounds of
Journey to Wild Divine as much as you do
the stunning graphics and engaging game play.
What
about Help Files?
Instead of cheat
files, a number of wise and interesting mentors guide you throughout the realm
of the Wild Divine.
Each of them
empowers you with yoga, breathing and meditation skills that you'll need
to complete over 40 biofeedback energy events.
For example,
you'll interact with Sophia, who introduces the journey to you
and explains what your adventure will entail.
And you'll
learn breathing and body-stilling techniques from a Zen master
who not only teaches you what to do in his training palace but who also
appears at other points in the journey to help you continue to grow.
Learning from
your mentors and using the power of your mind and body through the biofeedback
Light Stone, you will
- Build
stairways with your breath
- Open doors
with meditation
- Levitate a
sphere with your thoughts
- Control the
intensity of rainfall
- Juggle balls
with your laughter
- Shoot arrows
at a target
- Fly kites from
a mountain perch
- Fan the flames
of a fireplace
- and much, much
more.
But before I
tell you more about Journey to Wild Divine,
you should
watch these videos of The Passage, The Wisdon Quest the first two, in a
series of three "inner-active" biofeedback experiences in
the game that teach breathing, meditation and relaxation techniques
to improve mind and body wellness.
I'll wait.

Journey to Wild Divine as a Meditation Tool
If you've been
reading my newsletters or website for any length of time, you know that I've
been meditating since 1980 and that I consider meditation one of the most
important tools for a long, happy, and healthy life.
Unfortunately, up
until now, many people never gave meditation a chance because they just didn't
like the idea of sitting quietly or counting their breaths or chanting mantras.
Well, with
Journey to Wild Divine you'll use
biofeedback to learn how to calm your body and enter into the same kind of
healthful state that you can achieve through traditional meditation... and,
importantly and significantly, you'll have fun doing it!
I'm not alone in
thinking the Journey to Wild Divine
is better than sliced bread.

others...
Comments about
Journey to Wild Divine ....
"The
Wild Divine is helping to transform our mass consciousness to one of
peace and harmony through a very practical program that allows people to get
in intimate touch with the innermost core of their being. To know that they
have more power than they have ever realized, to know that they can
influence what is happening in their body, in their mind, in their emotions,
as well as in the world that they create everyday."

"The Journey to Wild Divine
is more than a game, it’s a tool for the Mind-Body work we value. It certainly has proven so with me – and it’s a hit with my patients. It’s an outstanding product and since it’s amazingly inexpensive, I encourage my patients to use it as home practice. It’s complex and challenging enough that no one has gotten tired of using it."

Like
having Yoda in your living room...
Well, I don't
know about that.
I mean,
seriously, I find Yoda rather annoying, and I wouldn't want him in my living
room other than as an occasional invited guest.
But, with that
said, Journey to Wild Divine is an
excellent product, especially for people who want a scientifically-validated way
to learn to relax their minds and bodies while listening to soothing music and
having fun.
