Death Development
Darwin/Wendy says, "Thanks for the submission, how weird! This strikes
me as a criminal act actually. It's not clear that the people agreed to
be kept in that situation for nine hours. Mud thereapy is a common spa
treatment. Although this was billed as a spiritual quest, the trappings
were not extraordinary -- only the length of time -- and the participants
could not free themselves from the mud, once trapped. ."
ORIGINAL SUBMISSION:
Chantal Lavigne, a 35-year-old mother of two, from St. Albert de Warwick, Canada, “was cooked to death” after she and eight others in a personal-development seminar called Dying in Consciousness were covered with mud, wrapped in plastic, put under blankets and immobilized with their heads in cardboard boxes for about nine hours, under instructions to hyperventilate.
