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...

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.

Subliminal CD - Love Yourself



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...

... 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.
