This may be the strangest book I ever liked…

This is seriously the weirdest kind of book…if you can even call it that. And yet, I love love love it. You must get your copy. Trust me on this. See message from publisher:

Jump start hope, kick your creativity into gear, and explode your definition of what’s possible.

Using a revolutionary system based on the latest in brain science and technology, this utterly unique book/soundtrack combo will help you uncover and then release the deeply-held, secret blocks and beliefs that stop you from getting what you want in life.

Ignite the Genius Within combines adaptations of two new and powerful therapy treatments—EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Brainspotting TM.

Dr. Ranck, a psychotherapist in NYC, who along with her traditional practice specializes in creativity and performance enhancement, witnessed many astonishing and “impossible” transformations while using these fast and effective mind/body techniques. She wanted to provide the experience and results in a book for the general public.

Your genius brain and system already have all the answers you need inside you—you just haven’t had easy access to them…until now.

Ignite the Genius Within is a different kind of book altogether. It’s a book that works from the inside out.  It is mostly a doing book rather than a reading book that works on two levels:

POWERFUL COLOR IMAGES AND ARTWORK,  accompanied by penetrating questions guide you to deep-brain processing.  A picture paints a thousand words.  Pictures are a short-cut into you.

A BILATERAL SOUNDTRACK with music and nature sounds that oscillate back and forth (instead of stereo), stimulates both sides of the brain, distracting the thinking brain, and giving access to dream processing—which usually happens while we’re sleeping.  Proven to enhance creativity, this soundtrack allows you to travel through space and time—and sometimes to take a trip into yourself unlike anything you’ve experienced before.

By forcing the brain to process information differently, we can begin to see and experience events and ideas through new eyes.  A new perspective can potentially change everything. Ignite’s powerful elements uncover and deliver the answers—that are already there—in order to make change happen within the deepest part of you.

And here’s the greatest part:  when you buy the book, you’ll receive dozens of similar downloadable bonuses!  Don’t miss it!  http://bit.ly/qjzO1Y

Balancing Your Push/Pull Energy (sort of)

The newest Messages from God recording is now ready for the week of March 28th, 2011.

Click here to access the audio.

Ooooooh, what a fun topic we are addressing this week. I would say it’s about creating a balance, but that’s only PART of the story.

It’s more about balancing your push/pull energy to manifest what you want more quickly and easily. :-)

BTW, if you want to be emailed when these audios are available, just sign up here. It’s completely free and I will never, ever share your contact info with anyone, period.

88 Percent Agree… How About You?

I’m not normally a big “statistic quoter,” but I found this to be pretty interesting. 

I only have 5 people in my household (granted, one of them is only 3 1/2 weeks old!) and I consider myself damn lucky if 4 of them (80 percent) agree on ANYTHING.

So in my book, 88 percent agreement is pretty frickin’ impressive.

In my last post, I told you about a link where you could get some free video training from some of the top manifestation and visualization experts from the movie “The Secret.” I also sent out a single email to my entire list, sharing that same link.

Now here’s the interesting part — EIGHTY EIGHT PERCENT (88% !!)  of the folks who clicked on that link (not total, just in MY email and MY blog post alone) liked enough of what they saw to enter their email and grab the full video series at no cost.

That’s a pretty impressive statistic (especially in a world online where TEN PERCENT OR LESS is the norm !)

So I would advise you to take a quick minute right NOW and see what all the fuss is about. Click this link if you haven’t already — http://LifeAfterTheSecret.com

And find out for yourself what the other 88 percent is so interested in learning.

P.S. I know it would be easy to put this off until later or tomorrow, but seriously, it only takes 8 seconds to get the info here: http://LifeAfterTheSecret.com

And if for some reason it doesn’t resonate, and you find yourself in that 12 percent, hey, you would have only wasted 8 seconds of your life :-)

Why Make a Mind Movie?

Visit any of the popular online streaming video sites and you’re sure to find an overwhelming number of results if you search for “mind movie.” But what is a mind movie, do they really work, and what are the advantages of making one?

What Is a Mind Movie?

Simply stated, a mind movie is a slide show or homemade movie that you assemble around a specific goal or desired outcome. The idea is that, by watching this movie repeatedly, you impress the images and desired outcomes upon your subconscious mind, in order to help you manifest faster results. Typically, a mind movie is only about three to five minutes in length, and may include a combination of images, text, and music.

Do Mind Movies Really Work?

Scientifically, it has been proven that the mind does not know the difference between what is real and what it perceives. If you ask a person to close their eyes and vividly imagine sucking on a lemon wedge, the same areas of the brain would fire as if the person were actually tasting a lemon. In many instances, the person may even pucker their lips, squint their eyes and demonstrate other visible signs that they were actually eating a lemon. Therefore, tools that are designed to impress a particular vision on the subconscious can have great effects toward creating a specific outcome. For most people, the efficacy of their mind movie has much to do with the feelings the movie evokes in them, as well as the movie’s “believability” factor (i.e., to what degree they actually believe they can have the things depicted in their mind movie).

Why You Should Make One

If you have a specific goal you are working toward, a properly executed mind movie can certainly assist you in achieving that goal more quickly and easily. For starters, the mere time and energy you put into making a mind movie can go a long way toward reinforcing (in your subconscious mind) the idea of goal achievement.

Similarly, repetition is an effective means of assimilation. We know that whatever you put your energy, attention and focus on will grow (ever notice how people who complain a lot always have plenty to complain about? It’s like they have a dark cloud hanging over their head!) Therefore, by focusing energy and attention on the achievement of your goals, you will naturally predispose yourself to achieving those specific goals.

Finally, another excellent benefit of mind movies is perhaps the least known: watching your mind movie should cause you to feel excited, as you imagine your goal as already achieved. This can help propel you into action when you might otherwise feel inclined to procrastinate or give up too soon. Ultimately, action is the catalyst that will make your goal a reality.

No matter what goal you are out to achieve, thoughtfully and intentionally creating and watching a personal mind movie can help you to accomplish and attract that which you desire most. Click here for free video training on effective, powerful visualization.

And now… a few words from my friend Brad Yates…

Hi there — Amy has been kind enough to send this to you on my behalf, and I greatly appreciate this opportunity to share with you what I’m up to.

I want to do something really special for a really special person – so I decided to put together an offer that would make it really worth your while to help me do so.

… and for a short time I am offering you the chance to pick your own price – all the way down to the lowest Clickbank will allow.

As an added incentive, there are some recordings and an exclusive video on the page that are a gift just to thank you for taking the time to check out what I’m offering.  I’m confident you’ll find them both enjoyable and empowering.

It’s that simple, and I hope you will take advantage of this offer.  Please check it out here:

While I started my career in personal development as a master hypnotist (and include relaxing and life enhancing guided imageries in many of my programs, including the gifts on the offer page), I primarily specializes in the use of EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) – also known as tapping.  It’s a simple yet powerful tool based on healing principles that are thousands of years old.

It’s a tool being incorporated by a growing number of personal development experts to help folks cultivate a far more successful mindset, including Jack Canfield, Joe Vitale, Cheryl Richardson, Anthony Robbins, Bob Doyle and many others.

Because of the intuitive and often humorous way I use EFT, I…

You Gotta Get This Angel Therapy Handbook…

I had the good fortune to preview a new book from Hay House Publishing, and I’m telling you, you gotta get it.

If you want to learn how to connect with angels to facilitate healings for yourself and the people you love, then you will love this book. (And if you buy it today, you get a slew of bonuses. No, I don’t get a commission if you buy, I’m just sharing the info with you.)

In addition to being a handy, well-written, down-to-earth (haha, that’s ironic) guidebook, it’s also positively gorgeous to look at, inside and out. Would make a SPECTACULAR gift in my opinion — especially for Valentine’s Day for all the people you love in your life. Plus you might win a trip to Toronto to see Doreen speak in person!

What’s interesting to me is that the author (Doreen Virtue) shares my philosophy — we can facilitate a LOT more change by teaching others to do what we do (rather than doing it for a few individuals). Gotta love that leverage!

Here’s the scoop in a message from the author herself:

NEW from Doreen Virtue
THE ANGEL THERAPY HANDBOOK

http://promos.hayhouse.com/angeltherapy/

Each time I learned a new angelic healing method, I’d use it to help my clients. Although I’d once feared public ostracism for so openly speaking about angels,
the reverse happened and my schedule became jam-packed with clients and speaking opportunities. My reading calendar got booked up nearly three years in advance! I realized that unless I took control of my schedule, my calendar would become progressively filled–indefinitely into the future.

So I went for a walk to the beach and prayed about the situation. I turned everything over to God and said, “I trust that You know the perfect solution to balancing my schedule.” I immediately got a vision, and the knowingness of what to do: I was to start teaching other people how to conduct angel readings and therapy.

My courses were originally called Certified Spiritual Counselor workshops, and then later I changed the name to Angel Therapy Practitioner® workshops. I also initiated a modified program called Angel Intuitive®, which I only teach in Australia.

So, this is a handbook covering the methods and messages that I teach in my courses. My prayer is that this book will be a resource to awaken you to your clear connection with the Divine and lead you upon the path of your life purpose.

With Love,
Doreen Virtue

Click here to watch the Video of Doreen taking about Angel Therapy

Doreen Virtue has presented her Angel Therapy Practitioner® course since 1996, helping thousands to learn the skills of spiritual healing and psychic readings in concert with the angels and archangels. Now, she has amassed the tools, secrets, and exercises that she teaches her students in a comprehensive handbook.

In The Angel Therapy® Handbook, Doreen provides a thorough overview of the angelic realm and the methods of Angel Therapy, outlining how to communicate with Heaven for yourself and on behalf of others. In addition, she offers compassionate guidance and practical action steps for lightworkers who want to take up a spiritually based career.

Doreen says, “My life purpose isn’t to give angel readings and spiritual healings to clients. It’s to teach other people how to do these things for themselves and their clients. I always encourage my spiritual-counseling students to teach others–to create an ever-spreading ripple effect that increases the awareness we all have angels, that we all can communicate with them, and that we all have spiritual gifts we can use to help ourselves and the world.”

Whether you’re a professional healer, or just want to polish your natural spiritual gifts, this handbook is a vital reference tool that you can turn to again and again.

When you order today, you’ll receive free gifts from Doreen AND you’ll automatically be entered to win a trip to Toronto to see Doreen live! Go Now: http://promos.hayhouse.com/angeltherapy/

The Secret to Successful Partnerships

Unless you’ve chosen to live life as a hermit, partnerships are par for the course. From choosing to buy something from a store to choosing a life partner, partnerships are an integral part of the human experience.

But why are some partnerships so satisfying when others are downright difficult?

Personality Matches

Some partnerships are easy to form because the styles or personalities of the partners are naturally compatible. Think of someone you just “hit it off with,” the moment you met, or someone you’ve just met, whom you feel you’ve known for ages. These compatible personalities make it easy to create rapport and develop a smooth partnership.

Likewise, you have probably met someone whom you didn’t like, from the moment you met them, and you may not have been able to identify any specific reason why. This kind of natural personality clash can make it difficult to form an effective partnership.

The Squeaky Wheel Gets the Grease

In many cases, all that’s required to elevate any partnership is for each party to speak up about their wants, needs and expectations. Communication breakdowns are common in challenging partnerships, and it can be tough to initiate communication with someone who doesn’t seem to be open to discussing key issues. Emotions and underlying resentment can destroy the ability to create open communication, thereby exacerbating the difficulties.

It’s key to remember that in any kind of partnership, you need to be able to speak your mind and express your needs firmly and objectively, without being defensive or attacking the other person or entities. In turn, you must be open to listening to the wants and needs of the partner, and being receptive to creating a win-win scenario.

The True Secret of Successful Partnerships

Arguably, the true secret of successful partnerships is the win-win-win scenario. How can you create a solution that is beneficial to both partners, as well as the organization, community, shareholders, or others who would be affected by the outcome?

Think about it – your best partnerships are those that involve give and take. You neither feel taken advantage of, nor feel as though you are taking advantage of your partner. The highest level of satisfaction comes when both parties feel they are getting a great deal and somehow serving the greater good. When one person feels as though they are frequently sacrificing their own wants or needs, resentment festers, and the partnership cannot continue to thrive long-term.

Consider that you truly can get what you want while providing an ideal scenario for a potential partner.

For example, just yesterday we were putting up holiday lights on the exterior of our home, and we decided that this year, we didn’t want to pay professionals hundreds of dollars to hang our lights. All the nails and extension cords were in place, and it was just a matter of getting up on the roof (a rather high roof, in this two-story home) to place the lights. And our lights aren’t strung — they are pro quality metal rods with formed icicles and snowflakes, with the lights attached to these stiff rods. So you literally just pop them on the nails or use the gutter hooks, and you’re done.  However, since I’m currently six months pregnant, I coudn’t really help Andy with it at all (except for maybe holding the ladder steady at ground level).

Suddenly, Andy got an idea and he was off like a flash.

He found a construction worker in the neighborhood with one of those retractable cranes, and offered to pay him $20 to hang all the highest lights. The job only took him about 15 minutes, so he was happy to do it and earn the extra cash, and Andy was delighted that he didn’t have to get up on the roof (plus it cost so little). I was just happy to have it all done in 1 day without anyone getting hurt!

It’s easy (and highly rewarding) to create win-win-win scenarios when we focus on doing just that. Sure, we could have asked a neighbor to do us a favor, but that wouldn’t have been an even exchange. He (or we) might have felt as though we then owed him a favor, and it’s never really a good feeling to owe someone for something. By hiring a local construction worker (a stranger to us), we were able to create a fair exchange of money for time and experience.

That night as I was falling asleep, I couldn’t help imagining this laborer going home from a long day at work and telling his wife, “hey, I made an extra $20 today!” and seeing how happy they would have been — especially at this time of year when construction work gets lean.

Here’s my challenge to you:

Look for ways to create win-win-win scenarios in all your partnerships and watch how quickly the quality of those relationships begins to improve. It can make your life easier, save you time and money, and create greater joy and satisfaction.

Go for it.

I can’t wait to get my copy of THIS book…

Hey guys -

I used to read voraciously. I’d have 5 or 6 books at my bedside at any given time, I’d take books with me to the dentist, or anywhere I figured I’d have to wait idly more than 5 minutes. But then something shifted.

Suddenly, I was not inspired to read, and I became very, very judicious about what I invested reading time into.

So a book really has to grab my attention or my interest — in a HUGE way — for me to take time to get the book and read it.

THIS is one of those books.

I’ve been a long-time fan of Hay House publications, and I am excited to read this new release from Marianne Williamson (if her name sounds familiar, it’s because she wrote “A Course in Miracles.”)  This book is called “A Course in Weight Loss” and you can get your copy by clicking here.

(Just FYI — I don’t get any commission or monetary compensation if you buy it, I just wanted to pass on the info)

If it resonates with you, then go for it!
