Simply Shift Your Thoughts...

Image by Greg Olsen, stock.Xchng


...And Solve ALL Problems!!!


Circa 1920. Patients who walked into Dr. Emile Coue's clinic would be given a long but very positive and very interesting discourse on the benefic effects of the medicines the good doctor was handing out to them. After listening to this discourse, and with full faith in his treatment, when the patient took the medicine, they would feel better, and would be ultimately cured.

That was in the 1920s. His mantra - "Every day in every way, I am getting better and better" - would be chanted by an entire generation. It still is, though people now have come up with other variants of the same mantra.

How or why the patients would be cured, nobody knew then. People thought Dr. Coue knew his stuff very well. Dr. Coue himself put it down to autosuggestion.

Cut to 2002. Dr. Helen Mayberg conducts a trial experiment on seventeen men admitted to the in-patient department of a hospital for depression. As part of treatment, some of these patients were given an anti-depressant, and some were given a placebo. Both the groups were told that the treatment will alleviate their problem.

Four of the guys who received placebo for treatment, recovered. [Here is the press release on the study.]

Skeptics pooh-poohed this result, saying that the generally therapeutic ambience of the in-patient department must have helped these four guys. But that is beside the point. Ms. Mayberg herself wondered whether the antidepressants themselves worked merely via a placebo effect. That too is beside the point. The main point is this: these four guys really +believed+ that the treatment will alleviate their problem. And this +belief+ translated into reality.

Come closer to the recent past. August 2006. Dr. Rosalind Wright conducted a research on 670 male military veterans, focusing on their lung capacity. A significant discovery was that those in the group who harbored hostile thoughts towards themselves or towards others, tended to have poorer lung capacity in comparison to peers who were at peace with themselves and with the world.

Ms. Wright's research on the genesis of asthma points to psychological stress being one of major contributors to asthma morbidity. Ergo...

Shift your thoughts from disease to health; and see how things change.

It is so simple - to stop thinking along lines of negativity and doom and despair and what-have-you, and start thinking along lines of positivity and happiness and general wellbeing. Yet, we make this the singularly most difficult task in life. And then mope around and complain that life is treating us unjustly.

This shift has to come from within. But, still, in case you do need external help, here is one. It's a self-hypnosis script on positive thinking, it's downloadable, and has been prepared on the lines of Dr. Coue's principles of positive auto-suggestion. http://www.short10.com/?c=sdb_hypno_positive1. Costs USD 12.95 for a download.

Simply shift your thoughts, whether with or without an external aid, and see the difference in your life. Incidentally, this is what the Law of Attraction is all about! :)

Transferring Power From Source To Appliance ... Without Wires

Marin Soljacic in the Center



... How About Sending Power Through The Mind?

MIT scientist Marin Soljacic and his colleagues have come up with a technique with which power can be transferred from a source to an electric appliance; effectively eliminating the need for all those wires and cables.

This technique is using two electromagnetic resonators - one at the source end, and the other at the appliance end. The source unit emanates non-radiative magnetic field at a frequency in the megahertz range. The appliance unit is designed to resonate with this field, and through this resonance the appliance receives its dose of power.

Simple and ingenious, isn't it? They call this contraption - WiTricity (acronym for Wireless Electricity).

Brings to mind phenomena such as telekinesis. Whatever be the controversy surrounding magician Uri Geller... or Nina Kulagina...


Book cover - Author: James Randi About.Com image - Nina Kulagina



... the theoretical structure behind telekinesis is just this: to induce resonance in a receiving unit, using waves emanating from the brain. The trick would be to create just the right frequency waves that vibe with the receiving unit: so whether it is a frog's heart floating in a solution, or it is moving an inanimate object from one location to another.

Can I cause my brain / mind to do this? Wish I am able to reach this state faster... :)))

Meanwhile, here's one very good software that can be used to develop the mind to reach any level... including being able to perform telekinesis, and beyond. The software works on the principle of auto-suggestion, and takes the route of subliminality to reach out the mind. You'll have to write your own script for such stuff, though, for the inbuilt scripts that come with the software are geared for more mundane aspirations! Like attracting the ideal partner in one's life, for one, or speed reading, for another.

Add-On CD For Subliminal Power Software

Subliminal Power Logo


This email from the subliminal power website can easily escape attention. But the CD that it talks about deserves more than passing attention.

The Add-On CD I am referring to is available here: http://www.short10.com/?c=sdb_sp_addon.

The CD has over hundred programs spread across thirteen categories, covering practically every area of life where people normally look for improvement in. Each category has at least four scripts (the website calls them, for some strange reason, "programs"); each script comprises sets of positive self-affirmative message texts pertaining to that issue. Here is a listing of the categories along with the number of scripts each has:

1. Brain Power - 6
2. Business Success - 10
3. Your Personality - 8
4. How You View Yourself - 7
5. Physical Body - 8
6. Health Matters - 13
7. Relationships - 8
8. Men's Stuff (R18) - 4
9. Women's Stuff (R18) - 4
10. Fears and Phobias - 11
11. Stopping Addictions - 5
12. Sporting Skills - 9
13. Hobbies and Misc. - 11

Total = 104!

After installing the CD, you just have to tick the desired program, and the software begins flashing the message texts.

The add-on CD also contains six hours of stereo music and one hour of binaural beats that can be listened to using headphones. Another hour of music combines special audio techniques. Together, these eight hours of music make the mind more receptive to the messages flashing subliminally.

Subliminal Studio - How To Write Your Own Messages

The Right Set Of Affirmations Make Deep-Rooted Changes In The Subconscious


The best advantage of Subliminal Studio Software is that it can be used to code messages for specific situations / issues in one's life for which generic subliminal audios do not exist.

Such examples abound. Counselors come across such instances daily when they wish there were some huge stock available of subliminal audios for all imaginable situations that human beings can ever face. Wishful thinking, I know.

So, after buying this software, getting a good quality stereophonic headphone with an inbuilt microphone, and installing the base Adobe Audition Software that comes with the software, the next step to perform is writing self-affirmation messages.

Writing self-affirmation messages is not really an art; however, it requires certain aspects to be borne in mind all the time while doing so. Here are a few tips that I have drawn up; some of them are already present in the handy PDF manual that comes with the software, while others are culled from my experiences guiding others in using the software.

Tip 1. The first tip is to always focus on one issue at a time. One subliminal audio track should tackle only one issue. This gives clarity to the subconscious mind on what it is receiving when the track begins playing; and it is totally absorbed in receiving the stream of messages on that one single aspect to be imbibed and converted into reality. Any message on any other issue can disturb this rhythm, as the subconscious then has to handle it separately, and the net effect is diluted.

My advice: Write down the issue on the top of the paper or notepad first and foremost. This becomes the "goal" of the exercise. After writing one affirmation; keep checking it with the goal, and look out for any possible veering away or defocusing.

Tip 2. Keep the affirmations crisp and precise. Keep them short. No long-winded statements. Just like in this particular tip.

Tip 3. Be very specific. Don’t use flowery language or poetry. No similes. (Example: "I sleep like a log." Say "I enjoy a deep sleep.") No metaphors. (Example: "I grab the bull of challenges by its horns." Say "I enjoy challenges." This one came from a lad who had problems with getting a job; needless to say he had just completed his English literature course with top honors.) No metonymy, no synecdoche, no allegory ... I can run through the entire list of rhetoric and literary devices, but you get the drift. We are talking about training the subconscious mind here. Remember, the subconscious can take them literally! :-)

Tip 4. Always couch the words in positive language. Put differently, don't use negative words. Don't say: "I am not scared." Say: "I feel courageous all the time.", or "My courage increases every day."

Tip 5. Use the form "It is now okay to ..." When you say to yourself thus - "It is now okay to " you are actually interacting with yourself at an emotional level, which the subconscious vibes with. "It is okay to be happy." - (sometimes) gels better than - "I am always happy."

Tip 6. Be realistic. Don't set a specific quantity for whatever it is that you are after. Don't say - "I now weigh sixty kilos." - if you want to be slim; say - "It is okay to be slim.", or "I am now slim", or "I am shedding excess fat from my body everyday.", or "I have just the right body weight".

On another plane, don't say - "I have a hundred million dollars in my account." What if you had the potential to have a hundred billion dollars in your account? By setting such figures, you run the risk of limiting your potential! Say - "I am prosperous." Or "I attract prosperity and riches in my life." And then leave it to the universe to send whatever abundant riches your way, with your subconscious attracting them like a magnet!

Tip 7. I liked this suggestion from Subliminal Studio's PDF manual: include Dr. Emile Coue's affirmation - "Everyday, in every way, I am getting better and better." in your list of messages. It was this Coueism alone - "Tous les jours à tous points de vue je vais de mieux en mieux" (the French equivalent - his native language - of his affirmation), that is said to have cured thousands of ailing patients across Europe and North America in the early 1900s. Indeed, much of subliminality theory is based on the "Applied Conditioning" and "Auto Suggestion" therapy proposed and practiced by him.

Subliminal Studio, in fact, has an entire folder containing twenty generic self-affirmation audio files that are recorded in plain English (no binaurals here). This folder is nothing but an ode to Dr. Emile Coue.

Tip 8. This is a question I am often asked: How many affirmation messages for one goal? One? Five? Ten? Twenty? How much? My answer is - have as many as you are comfortable with. The only condition is: follow Tips 1 to 7.

I referred to the folder containing those generic audio files; you may wish to listen to them first, to get further experience on how your own messages can be crafted.

So, once you have the list of affirmations ready, you are all set to record them!

Dr. Emile Coue
