I've worn a continuous glucose monitor a few times. So you stick this thing in your arm and you leave it there for 10 days. And every five minutes, it gives you a reading of your blood glucose level.

I could imagine that I would put one of these EEGs on and I would just find some feeling I like, bliss or peace, or maybe it's a feeling induced by drugs and alcohol. And I would be able to see what my brain patterns look like in those states. Then I could sit around and try to work towards reproducing those same patterns.
