I was introduced to Jane Roberts-The Nature of Personal Reality. It was like meeting someone you felt you had known forever. Obviously I have a lot to learn because I am grieving right now because I've lost someone who wasn't good for me anyway! AAAARGH! I'm feeling better though,and I hope to be a part of your Holosync experience very soon. Thank you. I was ripe for an understanding and the experience of the connectedness of all things,back in 1978.

You may be asking yourself how can I do that I live with me? I work about 60 hours a week and even when I am off I am helping my family or others. Just ask me I tell you. I have 4 children and 14 grandchildren and everyone wants to spend time with the most fun and intresting person in there life, and all (and I have witnesses) I mean all of the think I am the most fun and intresting person they know and most of the time it's true. I found out that most people don't care what you think unless they think you care. Well I got home exasused as usual and I was getting ready for bed when I look up in the mirrow and saw myself. I actually that the thought "I have missed you, where you been?" oh I said, " I've been busy do you need me for somthing? Yes could you spend just a little time with me, maybe tomorrow? "IT'S A DATE. about 5:30 I took a good shower curled my hair put on make up and a pretty blue dress (sky blue) I went to the flower shop just as it was closing and bought me a rose. I drove to the outback steak house and ordered a steak steamed brocolli. and a tall Jack Daniels and coke. I then walked to the steakhouse to a walkin movie (Harry Potter and the half blood prince) I was able to sit through the three hours. Then I drove me home and went to bed. I learned this from Bill Harris another person reached out to me when I wanted and needed it the most. You can't not afford to take this trip with Bill.

When I first heard about Holosync and what it had to offer me. I said my God how can I afford this I don't want to be left out of the posibility of fixing myself and situation. I got me a part time job just to pay the first 180 dollors and then the 39 or 40 dollors each month. BIll Harris is willing to work with you he offers specials all the time. for the next level. and free stuff and downloads all the time. If you feel like your worth it, you can move mountains. or somtimes a little grain of sand it all it takes. Alemenia I have a comment about financial instability.

Is get busy. start a small home garden volenteer at your local community food bank. In order for me to let what ever happens be ok sometimes I just have to get away from the thinking patten. I go to my local market and streighten the shelves. I get up and clean somthing. I call someone. The whole trick to this is to get out of your own mind. so the paradine can shift. Wake your spouse and make love with intent. Write it down as it happens. See how long you can sit just with yourself, no tv,radio,no talk on food on nothing just sit with yourself. See how long you can look at yourself in the mirrow without looking away. Give your self a manacure,pedicure. Take a long bubble bath just sit with your self. Get up earily watch the sun come up watch it go down. Take off all your clothes stand in front of a full lenght mirrow get to know you. these are just a few things that work for me. I have always wanted to be my own boss own a Ice cream truck or a laundry mat, but for some reason it just never worked out to the end. My grandson ask me how he could get $800 for a set of drums and I showed him how to do it. (sometimes you need help) Later that month he was at a birthday party and saw a Ice Cream truck for sale and the rest is history. Sometimes others can manifest for you better than you can for yourself. but If you don't tell others what you want how will they know what your dreams and desires are. Not being happy with what is (was a hard one for me), until one day stuck in traffic complaining about the possibility of being late some twoor three minutes into the jam I was able to see what the hold up was a rollover a small child and mother ejected from the car child still in unrestrained car seat. I pulled over to and offered aid until the ambulance could get through the traffic. The child had a large gash on her face. The mother was being helped my a retired ambulance driver. When all was said and done I have not been the same. If I had been four minutes earilier. That could have possiblly been me. There may not have been a nurse or retired ambulance driver to save me.

Two years ago I donated a kidney to my sister. I realized how tired I was. Because of this I found out about DHEA - my adrenal glands were affected as they sit on top of a kidney. I know my body. I would like to utilize my brain functions to help me get back to where I was. My meditation abilities are terrible. I look forward to watching my results. I am a runner - I have run a marathon. I like the runners high. I have put on over 10 pounds since the operation. I am still running. Now with the combination of these tapes - I hope to embark on a new journey. I have added some yoga classes. The mind is a terrible thing to waste. I do not want medications to solve my issues. My body and mind are intelligent and we will get my hormones and my body in sinc. Will keep you posted. Today I ordered my CD’s. Two years ago I donated a kidney to my sister. I realized how tired I was.

I am now in my 70's. I NEEDED to be reminded. I am grateful that there are people, such as yourself and others such as those featured in "The Secret", who are coming forward to share and teach these eternal spiritual principles without the restrictive and judgemental trappings of religiousosity. I now am beginning to feel that I can find other like-minded friends more than I ever have before in my life. As a child, teenager, and young adult I felt I was not able to share what I had been taught because when I tried to, I felt ridiculed and laughed at. I was wrong. It CAN be shared ... when rightly shared as you are doing. Thank you. This article has reminded me of the very things I was taught as a little child. I am now in my 70’s. I NEEDED to be reminded.

I tired to borrow money from a close relative but she is having a hard time also and because of all the other things happening right now it's just too much of a burden to spend the money. I am a single mother of two teenage sons who have needs. I give up my own to make sure that their needs are satisfied first. When I was growing up I know that my parents did not not give up their desires for their children and I did without a lot of things. Because of that I did suffer a lot not having what others had. I developed a very low self esteem from not having my needs met. When I was finally on my own and working did I finally discover the importance of a self esteem. I see that my children are not in the same boat as I was in they at least have something to look forward to in their lives. I will just have to wait until I can afford my next level. What else can I do. FROM BILL: Keep using the Holosync you have, and keep taking care of those kids. Bill,

As a person who believes that we can exchange goods, skills, land, tools, materials and space without money based on our innate ability to move these in a fair, natural and harmonious way, I am asking if you would consider contributing some of your cds this way. My website explains my concepts and I feel your cds (I have done Awakening Prologue) would been invaluable tool for a huge number of people. Sometimes it just takes baby steps towards a new way but if it is something that resonates with you on any level let me know. Thank-you for your amazing work, Warmly, Joan FROM BILL: Thank you for thinking of others who are in need. I actually give hundreds of thousands of dollars each year to charities that help kids. At Centerpointe, however, it costs about ten MILLION dollars each year to keep the company going. I have to pay my employees, plus rent, telephone, internet, medical, social security, medicare, marketing costs, materials costs, research and development costs, travel costs, taxes, and a lot more. If I don't charge for what we do, it wouldn't be long before we wouldn't be able to do it, and then no one would benefit. As I said, The only reason I can give huge amounts to several wonderful charities is because people like you pay for what we provide--which I appreciate. Hi Bill,

It really came as a wake-up call to me, as it dealt with some very practical issues in the world and down to earth advice as to how to deal with what's going on, and it seemed as if we were having a heart to heart talk about what to do when the chips are down and it seems that there are no options. You pointed out to me that there is always something to do, which means to me that no matter what we can take action to improve our situation;whether or not we are entering a new erra of change, by our individual nature we are given the power to influence our world for the better, and if we so choose we can make this world a better place for all of us to live. I feel that we are entering some sort of upward momentom of change, and it is people like you who are a major part in helping to catolize this change and spark the fire within all of us who otherwise wouldn't have the initiative.
