Doing Fregair means I go into a meditative state, and ask myself a question. I might ask "what job do I want?", and then I write down whatever response I might get. You know when you get a hunch that someone is a bit "odd"? Or you suddenly think of the answer to a crossword puzzle? Or you get a blinding flash of inspiration? That's what I get when I do fregair. But it's a specific thing I ask, and a specific answer I get. It's all just a matter of listening for the answer, and being open to hearing it.
