A brain case for energy psychology and EFT

I recall reading this one article at Gary Craig’s site on emotional freedom techniques: “Working with trauma - the connection between EFT and the Amygdula.”

At the time, I did’t think much of it because my precepts of EFT rely on tapping into higher gauge symmetry as theorized by Dr. William Tiller on the energy meridians. Then I found this article written a little more than a year ago that seems to add more weight to the issue of relaxing the amygdula: “Brain Scans Reveal Why Meditation Works.”

Here’s an excerpt:

Brain scans show that putting negative emotions into words calms the brain’s emotion center. That could explain meditation’s purported emotional benefits, because people who meditate often label their negative emotions in an effort to “let them go.”

Psychologists have long believed that people who talk about their feelings have more control over them, but they don’t know why it works…

..When the participants chose labels for the negative emotions, activity in the right ventrolateral prefrontal cortex region—an area associated with thinking in words about emotional experiences—became more active, whereas activity in the amygdala, a brain region involved in emotional processing, was calmed.

By contrast, when the subjects picked appropriate names for the faces, the brain scans revealed none of these changes—indicating that only emotional labeling makes a difference… (Interesting!)

In that article by Nikki Ball, Working with trauma…, she suggests applying the senses to further focus on and enhance the emotional experience. This makes perfect sense because the brain utilises holographic memory in its synaptic pathways. (Ref: Nature’s Mind, the Quantum Hologram)

That holographic memory contains every part of that sensual experience which is inextricably attached to the emotional experience. By the same token, it seems that the amygdula is some sort of release valve or capacitor for emotional tension and that dealing with emotional tension through introspective communication is vital to the balance of neural activity, therefore health in general.

No wonder chicks like EFT. They know it works.

In an EFT session, we focus on problems and issues that we are experiencing now by tapping on key shotgun points on the energy meridians while expressing and focusing upon the negative issues. When we express these negative issues, we do our best to “tune” into the problem as exactly as possible, so we talk out the negative emotions and all the sensual experiences attached to those emotions to further enhance and clarify the experience.

According to the article, Brain Scans Reveal Why Meditation Works, this is obviously what we need as an emotional pressure release. This is why women like to talk out their problems. And you know what? They’re right. For millenia, they’ve been hitting the problem on the head, but most men aren’t into that. I guess that’s why we’re such troublemakers.

So, maybe you guys want to try EFT, for the ladies if not for yourself. It’s not that silly and noone is asking you to make a video of yourself doing it or put yourself on public display. Just do it to take care of your problems - get them out of the way and have yourself a wonderful life.

If you’re a more spiritual type, you can apply God’s Names in your EFT practice. I have a post on Spiritual Healing which utilises the 72 Names of God in tandem with EFT. Yehuda Berg’s The 72 Names of God Meditation Book: Technology for the Soul is rife with all sorts of intense emotional situations that applies to anyone experiencing difficulties. What better starting point for spiritual types who want to be happy by calling upon God’s Angels?

If you would like to get into EFT, you will send that Gary Craig has made a myriad of tools freely available to everyone:

P.S. Mainstream medical practitioners dismiss EFT with a vengence. EFT cures problems in a few minutes as opposed to the life time “treatments” of mainstream medicine.

Sexuality and Higher Consciousness

The article on Sexual Intercourse Is Like Meditation may be a puzzle for most people.

That is, it’s a puzzler for most people in western society where sexuality is considered a “hush-hush” subject.

If you’ve visited my site at Sexual HealingMindN, you saw that the Taoist and Hindu perspectives on sex are very similar. In that fold, I would like to help clarify a few points in that article.

I believe most of you understand that part about going beyond a point where it becomes perversion. Decadent western culture does go beyond that point where sexuality is a perversion. So-called “religious conservatives” consider anything attached to sexuality as sinful exactly because decadent western cultures goes beyond that point into perversion.

The author’s point is that we should attach our higher consciousness of intention to coupling. The main objective should be spiritual closeness between man, woman, and the grand order of the world around them. Unity between man and woman should be unity with higher consciousness. Unity with higher consciousness leads to enhanced mental acuity. This higher order unity also allows man and woman in love to shape the characteristics and destiny of their offspring.

The orgasm function is universal as indicated by Wilhelm Reich. The formula can be found in every living thing from cell mitosis to the formation of tornadoes, galaxies, and beyond. The formula is:

Tension > Charge > Discharge > Release

This is a very simple concept that my own biology teacher from high school could not describe in proper scientific terms. Her description that she wanted her students to remember was “good, good feeling…”

In fact, this formula is key to creation in the universe. Everyone from astrophysicists to microbiologists will tell you that these are the actions of creation. The orgasm function is integral to universal order.

Gerald O’Donnell of the Academy of Remote Viewing and Remote Influencing provides a sample audio download which instructs us on our inherent ability to shape our offspring through higher consciousness during coitus. The audio is called “RI Manifestation.”

According to Gerald, this is a secret method that’s been handed down for generations. We focus on the best characteristics we want to see in our child during conception. The orgasm function is the carrier for these intentions.

A more detailed method is employed by the Kabbalists in their esoteric practicies when they focus on the toes during coitus. Each toe represents a characteristic of the elementals or “Sefirah” on the Tree of Life. By employing the higher consciousness of human intention during coupling, they are tapping into the higher gauge symmetry of human spirituality which is directly connected with universal order, an expression of The Universal Mind of God.

Isn’t that good news? Two people in love can tap into the universal order or “the matrix” during their most intimate expression of love to give their child a life based in love. This is something we all need.

Thanks for your time,

Connect to the Universal Mind

You are Here to Heal Your Mind: Spiritual Healing

Do you know why you’re here looking for a Healing Mind? There are few other reasons for being here right now at this moment other than to Heal. Milton Erickson proved this principle in his practice. Here’s an example:

The legendary hypnotherapist, Milton Erickson was once visited by a psychiatrist who complained that several other therapists had tried and failed to cure his ailments. He asked Erickson to treat him, but only as “a fellow psychiatrist, with none of that funny hypnosis stuff.” Though Erickson agreed, he had other plans:

Erikson met his client’s gaze with unwavering eyes. “Now,” he declared in his hypnotic southwestern drawl, “it is fine for you not to want to undergo hypnosis and I will treat you as a psychiatrist, but for now please kindly fix your eyes on that clock on the wall over there…”

Sure enough, Erickson’s masterful technique (combined with the patient’s fragile state and suggestibility) soon lulled the man into a deep trance. Moreover, according to legend, the clock on the wall was merely a figment of Erikson’s imagination.

[Though Erickson clearly instructed trainees never to lie to patients, he may have justified himself in this case by arguing that, had the man not secretly wished to be hypnotized: (a) he would not have chosen to consult a hypnotist and (b) the attempted hypnosis would not have worked.]

By the same token, you secretly want to be a Healing Mind. You’re looking for spiritual healing or else you wouldn’t be here. Since you are looking for a healing that works, I would like to provide you with some esoteric tools.

Now, this is something personal I want to share with you about my own personal healing; these are only two of the many tool I like to use.

First are emotional freedom techniques (EFT) by Gary Craig; they are a form of energy psychology. EFT literally taps into our higher gauge symmetry through the energy meridians and astral bodies. I’ve already mentioned in a previous article, EFT vs. Ancient Keys, that EFT is a combination of qigong (e.g. Wild Goose Patting Qigong) and psionics like Jose Silva’s method of assumption which also “tunes” into feelings.

Gary Craig’s site has a free EFT Tutorial + Manual available for everyone to learn EFT. They also have videos of people going through the EFT process to solve problems in a few minutes. Most therapists would prefer to drag out problems for years, so it’s not that famous in the mainstream.

In conjunction with EFT, I like to use a book to help me along when I have difficulty phrasing or “Tuning in” exactly how I feel at a given moment. It’s called The 72 Names of God Meditation Book: Technology for the Soul by Yehuda Berg. This book is based in the Kabbalah, but you don’t have to be Kabbalist to use it. (It’s like spaghetti or pizza: You don’t have to be Italian to eat it.)

Yehuda painstakingly looked up the elemental for each of God’s Names to help us understand the meaning of each one. These elementals or angels are based on the Shemhamphorash, or the actual Name of God which represents the 72 levels of Heaven or Hell depending on which direction your life is going.

Each of the elementals has a different purpose like “Healing,” “Stop Fatal Attraction,” “Self Esteem,” “Thought into Action,” etc. I like to skip around in this book depending on which passages match my feelings at the time. In reality, we should all start at the lowest level of heaven at elemental 72 for “Spiritual Cleansing.” Here’s the passage written by Yehuda for this elemental (I want you to imagine doing your EFT tapping while saying these things):

No more cynicism.

I will not be jaded, nor give others attitude.

I will transform my life.

Dropping my ego, I will take the path of proactive transformation.

If sickness, heartache, financial woes or other problems arise,

I will work through them to connect to the Light,

making the job of transformation my own.

I concentrate on the sequence purifying iniquities from previous lives.

My spiritual slate is clean.

as I allow the Light to engulf my physical and spiritual realms.

Of course, you can accent the above passage with your own feelings about your attitude towards the outside world, what ravages you’ve experience, or blessings it should bring. This passage is Yehuda’s expression of thoughts and feelings concerning a specific angel, the number 72 elemental, “Moum.” Start with Yehuda’s, then apply your own.

“Moum” is derived from the Hebrew letters. The Hebrew letters are the sequence of which the above passage speaks. Consider it as spiritual EFT. We’re all spiritual beings anyway, intimately attached to physical bodies. When you concentrate on the sequence, you are literally calling upon an Angel of God for Guidance. “Moum” is there for your spiritual cleansing. There are 71 more, each with a different purpose to help you.

True, the Shemhamphorash is also used for calling upon demons that represent the complete opposite of what we want. All I can tell is - Don’t do that. It’s bad Ju-Ju. There are enough death metal bands doing that along with you-know-who-else. It’s time for us to call upon the angels too.

I should make special mention that this is still a form of EFT when you are tapping and tuning in according to how you feel, but it’s higher order since you’re calling upon God’s Elementals for Guidance. Shotgun EFT as it is practiced worldwide is good for the primitive mind; the primitive mind is where most ailments originate. That’s why it’s good.

Tapping into your higher gauge symmetry to tune in God’s Angels is even better; that’s where we should be. That’s where our true spiritual healing originates.

Thanks for your time.

Sincerely,

Randolph Fabian Directo (HealingMindN)

P.S. There are two other works I should recommend: The Healer’s Handbook: A Journey into Hyperspace is an excellent book by Steward Swerdlow that helps us tune into other people radionically, psionically, and through dream symbols for a healing connection. This book will also accent your understanding of the Hebrew Sequences in terms of dream symbols.

Gerald O’Donnell’s course on remote viewing and remote influencing further helps you to affect and see healing changes in the world around you through an esoteric course of psychic discipline as utilised by western European Intelligence Agencies. Gerald thinks like me. If you like me. You like him.

Thanks again for your time



Power of Belief in the Law of Attraction

Review of Choose To Believe: A Practical Guide to Living Your Dreams by Alan Tutt

Every once in a while, a book comes along that promises to uncover the secrets of the Universe, and offers the tools you need to produce miracles in your life.

Most of the time, these books fall far short of their promises, giving only rehashed theories that sound good, but provide nothing of substance you can actually take action on.

At first glance, Choose To Believe appears to be just such a book. The subtitle alone gives this impression - A practical guide to living your dreams. Since when are dreams practical?

So it was with caution that I agreed to review Alan Tutt’s newest book. As you’ll see below, I’m glad I took the chance.

When I received the book, I glanced at the back cover. A strong focus on science is indicated, as well as a line that evokes a feeling of distrust - “You really CAN have it all, when you Choose To Believe!” Yeah right, I’ll believe that when I see it.

I next flipped through the pages, and was pleasantly surprised to find this is a REAL book. A full 220+ pages of text, with lots of subheadings to break it up into manageable bite-sized pieces.

As I started to read, I realized that Alan has extensive knowledge and insight into his subject matter. Each thought, each concept, is well presented with a degree of logic absent from most other books. Even so, it’s not as dry as you might think, and Alan’s sense of humor may be seen from time to time.

The introduction cautions you to have an open mind, referring to many scientific advances that have radically shifted the world’s view on reality, and the fact that even the best and brightest scientists are still human, capable of making mistakes. Excellent advice to follow when one wishes to learn new things.

The first 3 chapters set the foundation upon which the rest of the book is built. A lot of scientific evidence is presented that overwhelmingly supports the idea that our beliefs indeed create our reality.

Even so, Alan allows for the possibility that this creation process is limited to a chain between beliefs, decisions, actions, and results. This practical view of the power of beliefs keeps this book grounded in reality for anyone, whether they accept the more extreme possibilities or not.

Chapter 4 covers several processes for discovering what you believe on multiple levels. It is the multiple-level concept, what Alan calls a Belief Hierarchy, that explains why our experiences sometimes contradicts our beliefs.

In this discovery process, Alan provides some very interesting concepts, such as a Belief Scale on which the strength of any belief may be measured. Once I tried it for myself, it seemed so obvious, yet I can’t recall ever coming across the idea before.

Alan also provides several lists of questions to use for self-discovery, covering areas such as money, relationships, health, self-image, and more. I can honestly say that I know more about myself now than I ever did before.

In chapter 5, Alan switches from discovering belief to changing them. This one chapter covers a wide range of processes that may be used, including daydreaming, pretending, visualization, affirmations, prayer, hypnosis, and even conversational hypnosis.

Pacing and leading is an NLP (conversational hypnosis / Neuro-Linguistic Programming) technique generally used to persuade others to your way of thinking, yet Alan demonstrates how this very powerful technique may be used on yourself to change what you believe. After testing it out for myself, I can report that it works - beautifully!

Other NLP techniques covered include anchoring and submodality modification, which sound complicated, but are very easy to use once you understand how it’s done. I think Alan has explained these as well as anyone could in this context.

Wrapping up chapter 5 is a section which talks about a concept Alan calls ‘Belief Leverage’. These 2 pages explain why some people seem to get results when using such far-out techniques like burning candles and incense, chanting mantras, sitting in pyramids, wearing copper bracelets, and so on. While some folks may call these superstitions, Alan presents them as method of tapping into the Power of Belief.

In chapter 6, Alan presents a wealth of insights and suggestions for getting the most out of working with your beliefs. While there are reminders of many traditional suggestions, such as building a momentum, working from general to specific, and creating an immersion experience, he also offers another new concept - Master Beliefs.

As Alan points out, there are some beliefs that are involved in the process of working with other beliefs. Our belief about how easy or difficult it is to change beliefs is one such example. Our belief about whether beliefs can actually affect the physical world around us is another. Alan suggests that we work with these beliefs first in order to enhance our ability to get results when working with more specific issue-oriented beliefs.

Chapter 7 contains many examples of how Alan and his coaching clients have used the material in his book to create changes in their lives. This chapter really gives you a good picture of how to put the rest of the book’s material into action. You get specific step by step instructions anyone can follow.

And lastly, chapter 8 covers an area that few books ever address - how to help others using this material. Again, some of this is common knowledge, but a good reminder nonetheless. Other parts are more obscure and known only by those versed in NLP.

Choose To Believe includes a generous bibliography and even has an index, so you can look up any part of the system to refresh your memory. Also in the back matter is an offer to get a package of ebooks and audio programs from the author for a small shipping & handling fee.

Overall, I was very impressed with Alan Tutt’s “Choose To Believe” and I feel it represents substantial value for anyone wanting to improve their circumstances.

Thanks for your time.

P.S. One of the key aspects of using the power of your belief in the Law of Attraction is your trance state. Most people are in a trance state. This trance state contains a set of rules or cognitive commitments about reality or “the way the world works.”

When you shift your trance state into a more positive mode for smaller things, you attract those smaller things into your life. Then you work up to the bigger things.

For example, you are completely confident, beyond a shadow of a doubt that there will always be a good parking at your job or near a store where you go shopping - waiting for you. This is your trance state.

Your trance state also tells you that people will always be smiling and happy around you. Every time you find this is true, you reinforce your trance state, your cognitive commitments, “the way the world works.”

Not only is this the Law of Attraction at work, this is also how all psychic phenomena work - like remote viewing. Gerald O’Donnell of the Academy of Remote Viewing and Remote Influencing stated in one of his interviews that you have to start small to reinforce your confidence in your abilities. Then you work your way up to larger and larger tasks - in the paranormal as well as any other arena of your life.

It’s a matter of building your confidence in your abilities. This is how you build your trance state. Some people have trouble building that trance state, so they need some extra help. If you’re one of those people, try Mind Stereo. I have a special, value added offer listed at eBay with all kinds of examples of Mind Stereo.

Remote Viewing planets and crop circles for fun

The following video covers hits and misses by remote viewers of official and “unofficial” projects concerning alien bases on Earth, Mars, and the Moon. The presenter, Dr. Hein, also covers crop circles in a little more detail than the other subject matter. I assume because of his own personal experience of remote viewing in this realm:



You’ll notice that Dr. Hein sees individuals creating this crop circle. If he doesn’t assume too much about these individuals and the way they’re building the crop circle, then he’s correct. Remember from my post on Orbs, Ball Lightning, and Vacuum Domains where you see a video of orbs creating a crop circle. These orbs are thought forms. This means they actually do represent the mind patterns of individuals as if they are actually there.

To help you have a grasp of how a crop circle is an emanation of mind patterns, please refer to the paper on Nature’s Mind: The Quantum Hologram. Between neural synapses we have a form of interferometry going that creates quantum holograms, three dimensional pictures at the quantum level.

Your computer is delivering macro-scale information to you now on your screen from a micro-level of bits. The difference with the human mind is that there are all kinds of sensations and feelings attached to that information between the synapses; this is what makes it multi-dimensional.

When that quantum holographic information becomes externalized from your mind, you express it in many ways - not just a computer screen. What’s even more interesting is that your mind is a living part of nature. Your mind is a piece of the super-hologram we know as the universe; this means that it contains the same information as rest of the universe.

Your mind is always resonating with nature because those quantum holograms between your synapses are entangled with every bit of the universe. Now, you might ask, “Well, how come I don’t know everything then? Why do I have to go to school if that’s the case?”

Think about it. What are mainstream public schools teaching us? Does it have anything to do with remote viewing or enhancing any of our psychic abilities beyond retaining academic information?

If you will notice in the video, which is part one of three if I’m not mistaken, it’s a matter of gathering sensual, intuitive evidence from a certain place, person, or object. It’s a matter of focussing because if you remember from history class, when you focus on certain places or people from another era, you gain this intuition about what it was like. You tend to feel and sense the same things.

This is our nature: To be sympathetic and have empathy towards other people, places, and things. When we don’t do this, when we don’t have sympathy and empathy, we’re going against our nature, so we’re being less than human. Sympathy and empathy are key to remote viewing.

The same happens with fiction. When the writer provides details of the sensations and feelings of the central characters, we can put ourselves right there and feel what it’s like for ourselves in the most vicarious fashion. If we cannot imagine it, then we draw upon our cognitive commitments to compare to our previous experience to extrapolate the vicarious experience.

(Think of Ezekiel, chapter 1 and how he drew upon his congnitive commitments to describe what was actually happening. Yes, Ezekiel, Chap. 1 is talking about a UFO, it’s inhabitants and its internal workings.)

Quite simply, when we have enough sympathetic vibration from a person, place, or thing, we gain intuition about them, but we have to focus to do this. If there is anything that remote viewers have demonstrated is that they do not multi-task or else they would have predicted the events of 9-11-01.

Personally, I think this is a shame because we should have psychic training that sounds our alarm bells if things are about to go wrong. (Actually, Ed Dames did predict problems with the economy because this is where he likes to focus - look him up at youtube.) Even better, properly trained individuals should be able to control their own environment as a form of the Law of Attraction to keep evil things from happening.

Like I mentioned at the post on Ball Lightning, Orbs, and Vacuum Domains, we can train ourselves to externalize out thought forms into these phenomena, but only with great discipline. When you create your own orb through Visual Ray Psionics, that’s you. In essence, it’s the psychoenergetic reflection of you. And this is who Dr. Hein sees when he sees “people” creating crop circles.

The problem is all of this takes intense mental discipline which is not taught in modern day western society - eastern too from what I’ve experienced. Yes, mainstream martial arts and military training provides focus and determination, but that’s it. If anything, the military wants to load us up with subliminal technology, so we can use those artificial psychic disciplines on the battlefield to kill “the enemy.”

I believe that Gerald O’Donnell’s school, Academy of Remote Viewing and Remote Influencing, touches on all these points that I covered. I believe that using his methods that you can learn to multi-task remote view, so the alarm bells do go off before something goes wrong - even better than “Spidey” senses.

You’ve heard of spiritual intervention from your ministers or priest to keep bad things from happening, so we only precipitate good things - have you? Maybe you’ve heard of Dion Fortune’s “Society of Inner Light” during WWII as I discussed at Holy Life, HealingMindN. I believe Gerald’s School is in the same fold as all of this and a little bit more. Maybe you should try the free RV audios at his site, so you get a taste of what it really is to remote view and influence the matrix:


Free Yourself, Review and Influence the Matrix

Self Improvement on the web: FAQs

I’m seeing a trend of articles on the web concerning self improvement. Take meditation for example. This is probably just a disparity of having the subject of meditation on the web, but from what I’ve seen, the information is equivalent to a Monty Python sketch where John Cleese explains how to play a flute: “Move your fingers up and down the holes and blow on this end…”

Content on the web is over-simplified. Since it is over-simplified, it should say so, that this is not a complete treatise. In that case, tell the reader: “for the best learning experience for meditation, take this class, or learn from this course…”
Of course, I’m very gratefull that there are sites with links to related information like yogawiz.com and their articles on Anger Management and Effects of Meditation. On there other hand there are articles like these on stress management that use buzz words, but they explain nothing to the reader about how to manage stress. Once again, this is an article based on a Monty Python sketch on how to play a flute, but it’s not funny.

What I like to do is ask a lot of questions to get my audience thinking about self improvement and to learn about my audience. What I’ve noticed is that people are more interested in expressing their opinions than asking or answering a lot of questions. So, I need to ask you something: Why don’t you like questions? Are you jaded by too many surveys? You only want to express your opinion in a certain way? Not enough time? What’s the problem?

Specifically, I’m having this problem with the survey for Way of the MindGate Subscribers. The questions are there specifically to help me understand their needs. I have asked them at every newsletter to please answer these few simple questions to help improve the quality of the newsletter. I believe it needs plenty of improvements, but So far, only 2 people have responded.

Perhaps, you can tell me what the problem is. Here are the questions as they relate to mind control:

  • How do you feel about Mind Control?
  • What about Mind Control is important to you?
  • How would you describe Real Mind Control?
  • How do you know if a Mind Control method is good?

Now, please tell me: Am I being too obtrusive by asking these questions? I want to get a general perspective of Way of the MindGate readers on “mind control,” so I can deliver the kind of information they expect to see.

Mind Control can go in one of two directions:

  • Intrisically, towards your own self discipline or
  • Extrinsically, towards the discipline of another person.

From my experience, most people instantly assume “extrinsic” because they instantly assume an MKULTRA or cult type conspiracy to impose one’s will upon another. This has nothing to do with self improvement, so I assume that most people are not interested in self improvement. Please tell me if I’m wrong.

There are very few people who think intrisically when they hear that buzz word, “mind control.” There are very few special people on this planet who think in terms of self discipline. That’s why we have so many “motivational” speakers like Anthony Robbins sitting high on the hog using the people’s hard earned money.

I have no idea if I’m referring to you when I say these things. That’s why I say “people” like those “people out there,” not you. Correct me if I’m wrong, but most people don’t think in terms of self control or self discipline - and they don’t want to. That’s why they pay people like Anthony Robbins, politicians, big screen movies, romance novels and other mainstream media to do their thinking for them. Am I wrong? Please tell me.

Let’s go back to one of those articles I mentioned for a moment like Anger Management. Let this article represent 95% of the articles out there in terms of self improvement. I see important aspects missing from this article. Do you see what’s missing?

The questions are missing. Do you know what questions are missing? The questions that help us understand mind patterns are missing.

What do I mean? You might ask. Let’s go back to the questions that I ask on mind control above:

  1. How do you feel about Mind Control?
  2. What about Mind Control is important to you?
  3. How would you describe Real Mind Control?
  4. How do you know if a Mind Control method is good?

The answer to each of these questions reveals the underlying mind patterns. The answer to question #1 reveals if a person is a pain avoider or pleasure seeker.

The answer to question #2 reveals if a person is more emotional or logical

The answer to question #3 reveals if a person is more detail oriented or a big picture visualizer.

The answer to question #4 reveals if a person is more of a follower or a leader.

These questions from the Keys to Power Persuasion Course by Alan Tutt help us reveal the personality dimensions of the person in question. People usually lean more in one direction or the other depending on if they are more right or left brained. Then there are a few people like me who lie smack dab in the middle with their responses; these are the people who need extra therapy.

At that anger management article or any self improvement article for that matter, we can easily turn those questions towards our advantage. The writer doesn’t have to know any specific mind patterns. We can simply ask ourselves important questions and answer them intrinsically in the form of neurolinguistic programming (NLP). For example:

  1. How do you feel about getting angry at your friends, family, or coworkers?
  2. What about your anger is important to you when you get angry at your friends, family, or coworkers?
  3. How would you describe your anger?
  4. How do you know if your anger is good?

Now, let me try to project myself into another person’s shoes for a moment. Who’s a famous angry person that we can both relate to? (I’m actually having to look this up on the web because I don’t keep track of angry people.) OK, it looks like there are plenty of angry celebrities, mostly getting mad at people they don’t know.

I’ll try to answer these questions like the average white collar corporate worker who gets mad at his friends, family, and coworkers. I’ve worked in corporate environments, so I’m in touch.

#1 - Well, that’s a silly question. I get angry, of course. I get angry at people who deserve it. I get angry at people who should know better. I get angry at my friends, family, and coworkers because they should be more responsible with their actions and more considerate of the people around them.

Do you understand this answer? I’m hoping that I covered the gamut of what someone might say in that position. This is a control issue. Strangely enough, the answer hovers towards pain avoider. He wants people to know better - like him. He wants people to be more responsible and more considerate - like him. But instead of trying to take control of his situation, he gets angry.

Intrisically, do we know how people react when we get angry with them. Of course we do. They want that person to stay away from us when we get angry and we know that. What’s the old saying? “Flys are more attracted to honey than vinegar?” That anger is vinegar and we know that full well.

We chase that pain away through our anger. Unfortunately, we also chase the person away who is attached to that pain. We end up alienating a friend, family member, or coworker.

Anger usually precipitates even more unwanted behavior, but away from the anger, your anger, wherein we can have gossip, breakups, runaways, and worse.

What do you want? To be closer to friend, family, or coworker who provides us with love, trust, friendship, and devotion or chase them away?

Since you get angry because the ones close to you lack control over their faculties, you can ask yourself, “how do I help that other person to know better? To be more considerate? To be more responsible?”

Then you can further ask yourself, “How do I know better? How is it that I’m more considerate? How am I more responsible?”

Since you are obviously better at self-discipline than the people close to you, you can ask yourself further, “How can the people close to me be more self-disciplined, like me? How do people usually learn self-discipline? How can I help the people around me to be self-disciplined?”

Do you see what I’ve done? I’ve set the stage for us to learn extrinsic mind control. In order to apply Keys to Power Persuasion, you have to be a pleasure seeker who’s willing to build that rapport with the people around you, so you can gain control over their lack of discipline, thus preventing your need for angry outbursts.

Keys to Power Persuasion is actually fun in that respect because you get to learn the personality dimensions, the mind patterns of the ones close to you, communicate with them on their terms, then give them subliminal commands on a subconscious level. Then they do what they’re told - no more reason for you to get angry. Of course, this all hinges on your alleged self-discipline.

Are you a people person? You are. Then you know that it’s fun to learn about people. To ask them questions and learn about them. That’s what I do. That’s why I do it.

Do you understand now that I seek important answers through my questions - that I’m not a dog barking for the sake of barking?

Self improvement has to be more than a simple set of commands that applies to everyone. This impossible because everyone is an individual with their own mind patterns. For this reason, self improvement is highly individual, therefore, we have to ask ourselves those questions that access our own mind patterns.

We learn about ourselves first. Then we learn about the people around us. Sometimes we forget ourselves because we’re trying to do the best for the ones close to us. But in disregarding our own mind patterns, our own feelings, we tend to forget the mind patterns and feelings of those around us.

We need to ask ourselves those frequently asked questions to learn about ourselves first, then comes the self improvement. Introspect. Learn about yourself. Help yourself Then you can help the ones closest to you.

Thanks for your time,

Self Control: Mind over Body

Background

Controlling the autonomic responses like heart rate is quite familiar to practitioners of chi kung and just about every other kind of meditation.

The difference between chi kung meditation and other types is that we utilise different kinds of “body breathing” techniques through the flesh and bones, especially when we induce proper “chi” flow or bioenergetic flow through the energy meridians. That is, we literally use the mind to lead the “chi” or bioenergy through breath control.

I asked you to study governing and conception vessels; these are the two most important vessels in chi kung training because properly trained circulation in these vessels leads to the proper training in the other vessels.

The Governing Vessel or “sea of yang meridians” is the channel of control. This vessel starts at the base of the spine and ends at the upper palate in the mouth; it governs all yang meridians and serves as our protection against deleterious elements, therefore sickness. Healthy chi flow through this vessel is imperitive to our immune systems.

The Conception Vessel or “sea of yin meridians” is the channel of function. This vessels starts at the tip of the tongue and ends at the base of the spine; it governs all yin meridians and serves as our connection to the outside elements. Healthy chi flow through this vessel is imperitive to our rapport with the world around us, especially other forms of life with Conception Vessels bioresonant to our own.

You should have already studied and practiced the Kuji Kiri as outlined in Secrets of the Ninja by Ashida Kim to help you understand the necessity of proper “chi” or “ki” flow. I provide the free download URL of this book at Way of the MindGate’s intro page. If you have not done so already, please download your copy of Secrets of the Ninja now to study the chapter on Kuji Kiri.

Just the warm up exercise in itself stimulates proper “chi” flow through the entire body while it helps you to retain your youth. Do you understand my philosophy now that we learn by doing? You can’t just read about it; you have to DO it, so you can truly benefit from these exercises, so the exercises become heart knowledge - not only head knowledge. It’s more important to know these concepts intuitively rather than intellectually.

I understand completely that the Kuji Kiri itself may be too advanced for some of you. This is OK. This report is about controlling your autonomic functions, namely your heartrate - and you want to do it now - not ten years from now.

This is the reason we studied that EFT Tutorial + Manual. We see from this manual that EFT is an energy psychology that utilises the energy meridians by tapping on them; this is a very effective form of bioenergetic/psychoenergetic entrainment. In a few moments, you’re going to realise how effective that tapping technique really is.

I’m also hoping that you studied “Belly Breathing” at the breathing exercises page and the HealingMindN Meditation Guide. The final relaxation posture provided in the HealingMindN Meditation Guide helps you to set up circulation between governing and conception vessels per the connection as stated:

According to Chinese chi kung theory: “..when the tongue touches the roof of the mouth cavity, yin and yang vessels (yin in front, yang in back) are connected and the (chi circulation) circuit is complete. This tongue touch is called ‘Da Chiao’ or building the bridge. The tongue acts like a switch in an electrical circuit…” (”Nei Dan,” Ch. 3, p. 48, Chi Kung Health and Martial Arts by Dr. Yang Jwing-Ming.)

Of course, it helps to have the benefit of expert advice in chi kung like training “small circulation, grand circulation” and the rest. And yes, I’m still benefitting from Dr. Yang’s books. But remember the ancient originators of these exercises developed them by observing nature; they realised that natural (and supernatural) abilities in human society are replaced by culture that refuses to recognise the connections between humanity and nature. Their goal was to return people to the “Tao” or the way of nature. In this sense, I would like to put back what culture has taken away from you.

After training the relaxation exercises from the HealingMindN Meditation Guide, you should be able to achieve complete relaxation and focus within thirty seconds using one deep breath (i.e. one complete inhale and one complete exhale). Let’s call it the HealingMindN Posture for convenience.

For most people, their hearts may still be racing depending on the situation. Maybe you just finished an aerobic workout or you’ve strained yourself beyond your physical attributes and you feel chest pains or coronary attack coming on, or you’re having a panic attack from some horrible incident.

In reality, if you have been training the chi kung exercises, you have far less chance of a heart attack or panic attack. Let’s say you’re heart is racing anyway. You want to direct that excess energy that’s going to through your heart meridian to your governing and conception vessels.

The Training

From the HealingMindN Posture, we train the circulation of “chi” through governing and conception vessels. We use the mind to lead the bioenergy up the Governing Vessel (back) and down the Conception Vessel (front) while the relaxed tip of the tongue gently touches the roof of the mouth.

Yes, just like reverse peristalsis, the bioenergy circulation can reverse, but let’s think in one direction right now, like the smooth flow of the pacific and atlantic oceans around the continents.

In fact, in this case, imagine the Gulf of Mexico has excess heat; we want to redistribute that heat to Atlantic then Pacific Oceans, which, in turn, evenly redistribute the heat to the other oceans, gulfs, rivers, and streams which finally return to the ocean again.

Think of the tip of your tongue meeting your upper palate as the “gateway” for the oceans to circulate with each other.

Imagine the energy as bright yellow going up your governing vessel and bright white going down your conception vessel. There are more sensations attached to these vessels, but I don’t want to overload you right now. At the moment, imagine your energies flowing smoothly through your two main vessels. Inhale deeply to lead your “chi” through your governing vessel. Exhale deeply to lead your “chi” through your conception vessel; this is grand circulation.

The Method

Now, to test if your training has been successful. If you have been successful, then you are able to lead the excess “chi” from your heart meridian to your governing and conception vessels in a matter of minutes, perhaps seconds.

First, a precursor: Where does this method occur in nature? Have you ever seen nervous people constantly tapping their upper lip? On “Kitchen Nightmares,” I’ve seen Gordon Ramsey do this a number of times. This is a subconscious reaction to regulate the nervous system. If you observe nervous people, they tap subconsciously to help them sublimate that excess energy flow; they tap their hands, tap their feet, tap pencils on the desk, bob their heads, yank or brush on parts of their bodys, among other idiosyncracies. (That’s why corporate meditation programs are beginning to flourish.)

The particular body part that you’ll be tapping is your upper lip. This point is called “yinjiao” or yin junction where your stomach channel and governing vessel connects. (In fact, we subconsciously know the junction points all over our bodies because these are places where we usually itch, rub, and tap for no “particular reason.”)

When your heart is racing, you need to tap in sync with the beat of your heart. You know how your heart goes “lub-dub, lub-dub?” You tap twice in succession for every “lub-dub.” This is especially easy when you feel your heart pounding in your chest or into your throat between your ears.

By following your heartbeat with the tapping on “yinjiao” and leading the “chi” flow through your governing and conception vessels, you are redistributing the flow of bioenergy. Redistributing this excess bioenergetic flow more quickly returns you mentally and physically to equilibrium.

By synchronising your tapping with your heartbeat, your major vessels become entrained to the excess energy in your heart meridian, absorbs and redistributes the excess energy; it’s like an exchange from potential to kinetic energy on a musical instrument: Pluck one string while tuning the other to the same note until they resonate. The same concept applies to the energy vessels in the body, but with many ways to resonate; these are the other sensations which only mentioned in passing

The Test

For this test, I’m only asking you to do whatever strenuous exercise that you usually do to get your heart racing. Even if it’s just sweeping the floor, please do it now, so we can perform this test.

Once you get your heart thumping, get in your HealingMindN Posture, completely relaxed with one breath, the tip of your tongue gently touches the roof of your mouth, your jaw completely relaxed, then tap in sync with your heart beat on your upper lip, “yinjiao.” Remember to tap twice in succession with each beat because your heart says, “lub-dub.”

It’s natural that your breathing is quite rapid as your heart rate is accelerated. Remember your belly breathing; deep breathing with your stomach muscles. Imagine the flow of “chi” as you are breathing. Remember to inhale through your governing vessel, exhale through your conception vessel. Governing vessel is bright yellow. Conception vessel is bright white. You feel your heartbeat coursing along your energy vessels. As you lead your heartbeat with your mind along the vessels, you feel in complete control of your heartbeat.

Then you tap slightly slower, then slower, as your heartbeat follows your tapping. You feel a “warmth” coursing through your entire body as you gain further control of your heartbeat - until you finally get it at the rate you want it.

Mystify your aerobics instructor with your natural talent to relax. This method can also be used to lower your blood pressure.

If your test is not a success, you need to train more chi kung. I recommend the works of Dr. Yang Jwing-Ming as your guide for the chi kung exercises.

Thank you for your time,

Regards,

Derren Brown: Piano Girl Analysis

For me, Derren Brown put Ashani (Piano Girl) through a mysterious transformation, but I’m sure her transformation is mysterious to most of us.

When I say mysterious, I mean his method is obscured and his voice his muffled by the video editing. Other times when he’s describing a visualization to Ashani, his voiced is echoed - again obscured.

Please observe part one of this video as I try to analyze the scraps of info that Derren Brown and his crew throw at us:

Derren Brown - Piano Girl, pt.1 “spending hours with crazy mind control guy”



There are slight indications here and there that Derren is putting Ashani through an Erickson therapy.

Ericksonian hypnosis uses metaphor and story to help you unearth the resources you already have within you, so you can overcome issues that leave you stuck - like Ashani’s. As you heard in the video, Derren is treating the musical notes as metaphor. Apparently, Ashani is instructed to treat the musical piece as a metaphor. (I wish I knew exactly what that metaphor was as she was waving her arms about.)

Since Ashani couldn’t really remember much of her sessions, all the information was rooting in her subconscious - which is where it should be for a seasoned musician.

Please observe part 2 for the result of Piano Girl and my further analysis of what Derren’s therapy may have done:

Derren Brown - Piano Girl, pt.2 “I made you forget how to play the piano (echo, echo, echo)”



Don’t you wish you had a local school that would teach you how to be a concert pianist in a week? Let’s remember that Derren hand picks his targets for maximum success. What he did was made her forget all the cold, hard adult logic (attached to her insecurity) about playing the piano and re-taught her according to her specific thought patterns.

What he really did was recover to her artistic passion that she had since age seven towards music. As I mentioned, there are a lot of obscurities covering Derren’s exact methods and devices, but I believe that I’ve figured out how it’s done, at least, from my perspective.

Derren claims to use a combination of NLP, hypnosis, magic, and showmanship to pull off his stunts. This was the first time I ever saw him use his talents to help someone go forward in her life. In fact, this was the nicest thing that I’ve ever seen him or anyone else do for another person.

In only one week, Derren re-opened that opportunity for musical passion for Ashani by understanding her thought patterns and nurturing her passion that was already there.

I would love to do this for people on a regular basis. Imagine uncovering people’s childhood passions and watching them flourish and unchained from the bonds of fear to completely let go, to go forward in their lives. That’s what Derren did for Ashani; she allowed her talent to flood forward from her subconscious into an amazing piano concerto.

Most professional psychotherapists would prefer to take years to “treat” someone like Ashani including whatever neuroleptic drug therapy. Derren proved them all wrong by taking only one week to recover Piano Girl’s passion and return her confidence. This is because after that one week, she felt that she had been playing the piano all her life.

Everyone has an amazing passion, but how many of you truly explore it for lack of confidence or for reasons of being “practical?” The real key to doing this is that you have to ask for it - like Ashani did of Derren when she signed onto the show, in front of the camera no less. (The same applied to this guy with the essay contest.)

Which reminds me, I should probably write up my own waivers, so I can do anything to you because this is what I want to do too. I want to use NLP, hypnosis, and brainwave entrainment to help people uncover their passion. I’m relatively sure that Derren combined Erickson Therapy with brainwave entrainment on Ashani. This is what I would like to do for you in the form of your own personalized living mandala, basically a brainwave entrainment video that tells a story specific to you.

The difference between myself and Derren is that I don’t have a team of neuroscience experts as part of my crew and I’m not right there with you to observe your progress, so I can’t promise you results in a week the same as Derren.

For this reason, I’m going to work harder than I ever have - just for you, to help you share your goodness with the world. Stay tuned!

Thanks for your time,

P.S. It seems that yesterday, 30 September, was “International Passion Day.” Among others, Jose Silva’s daughter talks about it, but I can’t find any official references to “International Passion Day.” Perhaps, you believe this article is in step with that day, but I didn’t know such a day existed - until today.

Could you please leave a comment and tell me the real origins of “International Passion Day?” I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Meditation keeps your brain healthy

A study carried out by the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in 2007 has provided good evidence that just 12 minutes of meditation a day can improve cognitive abilities.

This heartening study was conducted amongst the 52 – 70 age group who already had some form of mental decline and after just eight weeks of daily meditation their memories showed startling improvements.

Andrew Newberg, M.D., the study’s principal investigator, said, “For the first time, we are seeing scientific evidence that meditation enables the brain to actually strengthen itself, and battle the processes working to weaken it.”

Other studies at Massachusetts General Hospital show that regular meditation thickens the cerebral cortex in the brain by increasing the blood flow to that region and some researchers believe this can enhance attention span, focus, and memory.

There are many, many good reasons to add a regular meditation practice to your life and a sharp clear mind is just one of them.

As you might know, Kuji Kiri Meditation is my favorite meditation because it ties in chi kung breathing exercises with psychic keys that call upon powers of higher consciousness. You can get your own copy of Secrets of the Ninja which contains Kuji Kiri methodology from Ashida Kim. The link is located at Way of the MindGate Newsletter intro page.

Of course, if you subscribe to the newsletter, you get access to all kinds of “how to” manuals on NLP, hypnosis, and mind control. In fact, there’s one manual hiding at this blog, HealingMindN Meditation Guide, written especially for people who want to take the benefits of meditation with them to any situation to maintain calm, focused self control.

One more thing you should know: I had to do plenty of cross referencing with more academic manuals with diagrams on chi kung, chi flow, and how to use it to completely understand and appreciate the Kuji Kiri. I share this information with the subscribers of Way of the MindGate Newsletter.

Thank you for your time.
