We can also carefully tailor the way our A-leaf track reacts, adjusting it up or down depending on the degree of emotions we'd most enjoy experiencing. For example, Tamar, like me, isn't a fan of intense negative emotions. So when I watch a horror movie, I actually tend to keep the light on in the room and make the screen quite small so that even as I'm indulging the A-leaf, I have lots of belief pushing in the opposite direction in the background. And that is a tactic you can use if you're somebody who's hypersensitive to the ways in which imaginative emotion affects you.
