John Assaraf the famed guru from “The Secret” has gotten aboard the Mind Movies 2.0 program and his interview was put online this morning. Even if you have no interest at all in the Mind Movies thing, Assaraf’s interview is certainly worth viewing. At this point, I am actually getting tired of all of the emails that I am receiving about MMs new version. I would say that 9 out of 10 emails that I am receiving are promos for Mind Movies. It is certainly far better than the original program but the way that it is being promoted, you would think that it is akin to the “Second Coming.”
Anyway to see the Assaraf interview, Click Here. and yes, I am an affiliate to MM2.0 and just so that you know, although I have seen an excellent demo of MM2.0, it is unlikely that I will get the program. I am a former photojournalist so I have a very complete library of photos, I also have an extensive collection of both classical music and Alan Tutt’s entrainment audios and using Power Point is second nature to me and of course, as I run a site dedicated to affirmations, I have an extensive collection of affirmations which I have written. For me, MM2.0 would just be redundant.
When the first version of Mind Movies came out, I was not impressed. Anyone who was reasonably competent with MS Power Point could do the same thing without the extra cost. However, Mind Movies 2.0 is a whole new story. I started to get interested when I saw that many of the bit gurus were getting involved with the new program-Bob Proctor, John Assaraf, Dr. Joe Rubino and many more. Then I got the chance to see a display of the new system and I am impressed. It has a complete library of photos, music and excellently written affirmations that you can just drag and drop to create your personalized Mind Movie. Not only that, you can also add your own sound track or your own video to complete your Mind Movie.
Of course, you know how strongly I believe in affirmations. Mind Movies 2.0 adds a whole new dimension to the affirmation process. I have always taught that you should involve as many of your senses as possible-speak it, hear it, see it and any other senses you can involve. Remember how I took that Mercedes AMG out for a test drive. Mind Movies, especially for those who have trouble with visualization, seems to be an important step forward.
Bottom line-I am an affiliate of the new Mind Movies 2.0 unlike the previous version. If you click here, you will get to see some great interviews with the gurus that I mentioned above and you will also be given 6 free pre-made Mind Movies. Even if you don’t buy into the new system, these free pre-made Mind Movies can have a very powerful effect.
While I am not an affiliate of Al Diaz, I saw his video Illuminations which is full of inspiration and self-empowerment and I thought you might appreciate something to brighten your day.
In all honesty, when I first saw the promo for Drop Into Genius, I did not expect very much . I mean really-what can you expect from a $15 dollar E-book. However, I am a sucker for any book with the word genius in the title. Boy, was I in for a shock. This has been one of the most interesting reads that I have had in a long time and it introduced me to a number of new concepts that I had not considered previously.
Scheele in his introduction starts out with the premise that all children are born with genius potential but that through overy protective parenting and ultimately entry into our educational system which he considers archaic, we destroy that innate genius that we are all born with. He makes a very strong case for a completely different approach.
Each of the 8 chapters starts with a guided imagery session to help you understand the material on a deeper level than just our logical mind. In chapter one, he shakes the whole foundation of our current use of the visualization process and introduces the idea of Eidetic Imagery which he feels will plumb the depths of the mind and is far more effective. It is obvious from the start that he considers visualization as we use it only locks us into a forgone conclusion and does not allow our natural genius to surface. Personally, I found this approach to be quite intriguing as I have always felt that there were some problems with visualization as it has been taught to us.
Although there are some areas that the book gets into that I consider somewhat questionable-reading by the palm of your hand and photo-reading with which I have had some experience and am still not a believer. The only other problem I found with the book is that it did have quite a few links to other paid products with which I am not affiliated.
Bottom line-Drop Into Genius is definitely worth investing your time and to top it off, 20% of the proceeds of the book go to charity and you also receive an MP3 of Paul explaining some of the concepts.
On price alone (it is so cheap) I almost did not consider this book and that would have been a big loss on my part.
I have become an affiliate of this book and do receive a commission if you purchase. Obviously, I am not going to get rich on something this inexpensive but, I did receive a wealth of information by reading it and trying out the different techniques that Paul teaches in this book.
If you click here, Paul does offer a free chapter to interest you in the E-book
Recently I have had a number of readers contact me and since they came in email and not as comments on the blog, I thought everyone would like to hear my answers. Joshua wrote in with a positive response to TRN Inter-Talk and Alvin wrote in asking me to compare Inner Talk to TRNs Affirmation Audios.
In response, while I found Inner Talk-an NLP program to be very powerful, I still prefer TRN’s Affirmation audios. I believe them to be the best commercial affirmation audios available and I continue to use them. Home-made audios using the TRN format are even more powerful.
Nick wrote in to tell me that he was using Subliminal MP3 audios and was having a profound effect from these subliminal audios. Personally I am only seeing a small effect from these audios but that is likely because I have impaired hearing in the upper ranges and this may be causing me some difficulty. BTW-in the spirit of not competing with my followers, Nick has his own Personal Development E-book website at: http://tinyurl.com/yfk9fbv. While I have not reviewed their products, it might be worth looking at.
Finally, My rant for today. I am getting really tired of the hype in the personal development market. I write this blog because I want to help people and I really don’t like the hype that I am seeing. The latest thing to irritate me is the way that Steve Jones is promoting his Paraliminal audios. He had gotten a trademark for the word “Paraliminal” but, he makes it sound like he has gotten a patent for his process. A trademark is nothing more than a license to have exclusive rights to use a specific word-it does not mean that the process that it represents has in anyway received a patent. He makes it sound much more important than it is. I happen to like Steve’s Paramininal products and I do use them on a fairly regular basis but, I just don’t like the hype.
Currently, I am working very hard on reviewing a number of new programs and will get them to you as soon as I can.
Although I affiliate market, I don’t feel that I have to compete with anyone and when another person produces something of true beauty, I am going to bring it to you even if it is not something I am marketing. Al Diaz of Ilumine Ao has produced a beautiful inspirational video which is in exact alignment with my heart of hearts and my life purpose. Although I am not an affiliate of Ilumine Ao, I hope that you view their video and take this message to heart and I must say, thank you Al Diaz for bringing this message to us. If we all take this message to heart, the world will be a better place.
If you loved this message as I do, please take the time to click on your social network links at the end of this post and spread this message of love and self-fulfillment. This is a true affirmation of life.
Are you miserable today, crying in your beer and moaning about how the world is unfair. Well, take a look at this short video and then re-think your position. You really do have limitless opportunities and an incredibly wonderful life to create for yourself and the ones that you love. You simply have to make the choice that you will not accept externally applied limitations and seize all of the wonderful opportunities that are available to you everyday.
If he can live a rich full live, what is my excuse? This wonderful man with all of the physical limitations is a true inspiration. I see what he has accomplished and I have to seriously question what I have done with my own life.
Most of this post is an update of some recently reviewed programs but, I am also going to talk about a point of irritation at the end of this post. Ironically, I received Aine Benton’s Intuition Zone newsletterand her headline was:”The Best Way to Predict the Future.” Even before opening the newsletter, the answer popped immediately into my head-The best way to predict the future is to create it. I do enjoy reading her newsletter.
“The One Command”, I am continuing to work with. I am not sure how it works but every time I use it, I seem to be getting results-new opportunities to improve my website and intuitions that must be coming from very deep in my soul. Seems like a rather simple program but I think the use of going into the Theta brainwave state is really what make it work or at least seem to work for me.
Subliminal MP3s-As you know I have always been extremely skeptical of subliminal audios but since their offer of 3 full subliminal albums to try their system out, I took it one step further and got a couple of their other programs which I have been listening to on an almost constant basis since my original post. I don’t know if it is just placebo effect or something more profound but, I have actually noticed some substantial changes in my daily life. I will continue to report back to you on these audios as I get more use out of them.
Drop Into Genius-Reclaim Your Brilliance is a new book from Paul Scheele. I have just started working with this incredibly inexpensive E-book but thus far, it is really changing my views of our genius ability and it also makes a very strong case for using visualization in a completely new and very provocative manner. I will have the review up shortly and from first impressions, this could be a life changer. I can hardly believe that I am most likely going to give a rave review for a product that only cost $12-usd. I will never get wealthy selling a 12 dollar book but the contents of this book might help me create true wealth.
Now for my rant of the day-Liar, Liar-Pants on Fire
I have been getting Kristen Howe’s Go Big newsletter and have not been very impressed with her work. As of today, I have unsubscribed from her newsletter. She may think that it is just good marketing but to me, I do not like to be lied to. She tells the story of how important she thinks The Secret of Deliberate Creation is (I do agree on that point) but she goes on to tell us how she contacted Dr. Anthony and he set up a special deal just for her subscribers-get the digital version of TSDC for 60% off of the price of the physical version. That is simply a bald-face lie. Dr. Anthony has always offered the digital version at 60% off for everyone not just Kristen’s subscribers.
Financial disclosure-One should assume that I make a commission on the sale of most products on this website. It helps keep this site running and it will someday help my grand-children go to college-if that is their choice.
At first, I was quite skeptical of “The One Command.” I thought-here we go again, another copycat Law of Attraction program. What I actually found was a program that is a quite unique simple 6-step process and might just have some real merit.
The One Command is essentially based upon giving a command to your mind while in a Theta meditative state and with a combination of both physical action and a very unusual method of going into the Theta brainwave state, the command is embedded into your body, mind and soul at the deepest level-that of your DNA. Being a life-long student of the art of affirmation, I have long believed that the very best and most effective affirmations are the ones which command (demand)that the subconscious carry out your intentions. In Asara’s One Command program, she has carried this theme much deeper in that you are making a command of your deepest essence-your DNA-that part of you which is at one with “Source.”
According to the author, Asara Lovejoy, “In the theta brain activity the mind operates only in now time and everything can and is happening simultaneously. In now time the energy of the thought or feeling is immediately realized.”
One of the key components of the One Command is the method by which you go into the Theta meditative state. I have been a meditation practitioner for more than 40 years and had never heard of the eyelid technique for achieving this very deep state of meditation. What surprised me is that when I tried this technique, I immediately went into Theta. It usually takes me 20 or more minutes and sometimes not at all to reach this deep meditative state. It is a state where both miracles and the possibility of enlightenment can take place.
As I had never heard of this method before, I asked Asara how she came up with this practice which I have now incorporated into my daily meditative practice. She told me: ”
Looking up under your closed eyelids to go into theta in The One Command process comes from a couple of directions – ones both ancient and modern.
The ancient practice known as the Tibetan Eye Roll has been practiced for thousands of years to access different states of consciousness by Tibetan Llamas and spiritual masters. In addition, if you look at yogi masters, Christina mystics or shamans you’ll often see the spontaneous eye roll where you can only see the whites of the eyes as the eyes roll up into the head while meditating or in ecstatic states.” She went on to say: “The activity of looking up under the eyelids in modern times has been tested in laboratory settings that show there is a direct correlation to the position of the eyes and the brain waves. What used to take masters 10,20, 30 years to develop the skill to make a state change we can now easily be accomplished in moments by shifting the biology of our eyes looking up that then shifts our neurology. What a feat and what a miracle.”
I welcome this new (new to me) meditative practice. As far as the program, it comes with both a rather large E-book and an MP3 introduction which takes you through the One Command process several times. Not only is the E-book and MP3 quite complete, Asara also provides substantial support for her program including a blog, a Yahoo Group which acts as a support group and a free weekly call every Wednesday where Asara answers any questions that you have about the One Command.
Before I go any further, let me state that I am an affiliate of One Command and the proceeds of any sale go to support this site.
That having been said, I tried the One Command program out and I do not know if it is because of all of the other mind work that I do or if it was a direct result of the One Command program but, within 2 days of making my One Command, several new opportunities opened up to me and this was quite out of the blue. Again, I don’t know if it was Asara’s program or my other mind work that brought this about but, I did seize upon these opportunities. I don’t care what kind of program you follow, I do know that taking action is the only way that you will ever achieve your dreams.
If you don’t get into going to Asara’s live events, this is a quite inexpensive program and for the time being, I am going to continue to practice this program and I will give you updates as they seem appropriate.
While I have great respect for Steve G. Jones and his hypnosis products, he is currently offering an NPL Practitioner certified training program and I personally think that this is a very dangerous path to follow.
NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) works with the deepest recesses of your subconscious mind and I cannot believe that an E-book and 10 audios and about 2 or 3 weeks of practice at home is going to properly prepare you to become an effective NLP practitioner. In fact, without having an in person trainer who can oversee and evaluate how you work with clients, I think that this program could have some very negative results.
If you think about it, there is nothing more sensitive than the human mind. We don’t allow doctors to practice until they have gone through a residency program but with Steve’s NLP program, he is going to certify you after only 2 or 3 weeks of training to start working with the inner workings of someone else’s mind. Perhaps, I am being overly cautious but I don’t want someone with only minimal training and never having been evaluated in a clinical setting messing with my mind.
Note that I have not provided a link to this program. I, for one, believe this to be a very bad idea and please remember this: if you take this course, what are you going to do if you release some deeply hidden past trauma in your client’s mind. Do you really think that you will be properly prepared to help that person?
