What I found interesting is that Eastern and other religious disciplines make conscious use of some aspect of almost all the categories of spontaneous triggers I came up with i.e.
Concentration = Meditation
Aesthetics = religious art
Relaxation = prayer, ritual
Disorientation =Zen koans (cults use more drastic measures)
Trauma = fasting, flagellation
Breakthrough = Zen
Redirection of sexual energy = Tantra, celibacy
Physical activities = Hatha Yoga, etc.
Breathwork = breathwork
