6. I want to show you how to create the exact life you want--inside and out!

I have a very special opportunity for you...something that can totally turn your life around. And, it could be worth a considerable amount of money to you, as well.

Here's what it's all about...

Just for a moment, imagine:

WHAT IF you could be IN CHARGE of what happens to you--including your feelings and emotions and other internal states, as well as your external results?...

Wouldn't that be a lot better than waiting for life to "just happen," where you sometimes get what you want, and sometimes you get what you don't want?

Are you willing to learn exactly HOW you can do this?

For the last year and a half, I've been teaching three 12-lesson online courses called the Life Principles Integration Process, or LPIP, that teach you all of this, and more. I've received thousands of emails and letters from the people in these courses telling me how what they've learned has transformed their lives, even saved their lives. (You can see some of the comments people have made below.)

So more people could afford the LPIP courses, and as an introductory offer, I'm offering them for an incredibly low $249 per course.

And, if you sign up for all three, I'll give you the third course for FREE.

This actually made each course $166 each, about $13.83 per lesson.

If I taught the LPIP material in seminar form, it would probably take at least ten long intense days to teach each course. And with all the personal follow-up I include I'd have to charge several thousand dollars per course for you to attend.

And even at that lofty price, it would be worth it, I promise you.

Not only that, there is an iron-clad money back guarantee on these courses.Take the course and do the homework, and if you don't think this is the most transformational experience you've ever had, I'll immediately refund your entire tuition.

In other words, you have nothing to lose but whatever ways you have been automatically creating what you don't want in life.

I will warn you, though. These LPIP courses are not your typical pablum-filled feel-good seminars where you feel high at the end but realize three weeks later that little if anything really changed.

If you take these three courses, EVERYTHING will change--and, for the better. Your life will be transformed. You will have all the tools you need to be in direct control of your life--your feelings, your internal state, your external results, your behavior.

And, you will gain a huge insight into who you really are, why you're here, and what life is all about.

Plus you'll learn, step-by-step, the exact strategies, internal and external, used by the most successful people in the world to get anything they want. And, I'll show you how to make sure you use them and make them work for you.

And, as I said, if you don't get what you want from these courses, for any reason, you can get a refund. I'm taking all the risk, other than your time investment in actually doing the lessons.

If you're not serious about changing your life, if you aren't willing to do what it takes to operate at the highest level and really be happy, peaceful, and successful ALL THE TIME, this isn't for you.

But if you're serious, if you're sincere, these three courses will utterly and completely change your life.

Here's a huge and very unique benefit you'll get from these LPIP online courses:

In addition to everything else, all LPIP course participants get unlimited email access to me for any questions they have about course content. I answer every one of these emails personally--no staff members are involved--and some of my answers, when necessary, are sometimes three, five, even seven pages long.

I put everything into this course, because I really, sincerely want you to get everything I'm promising.

You though, have a part in the success of these courses--in fact, a big part. I don't wave a magic want over you and change you into a happy, peaceful, successful person in complete control of his or her life.

If just tell you how to do it, and give you an easy way to make the change.

Because I have such a huge personal time investment in answering all your questions, I want to make one thing very clear, though. Please DO NOT take these courses unless you're willing to do your part. I do not have the time to waste on those who aren't sincere and aren't willing to pay the price to create the internal changes they want.

But if you ARE sincere, and you really do want to change your life, I want to show you how to do it, and I will take you, step by step, through everything you need to know.

You CAN create an entirely new life for yourself, regardless of your past or present circumstances.

You can read more about each course and what it includes, and even listen to a free preview lesson, just by clicking below:

So please, go listen to the free preview lesson, and if you really are ready to change your life, enroll in this amazing courses risk-free.

I look forward to having you in these courses and showing you that the possibilities for what your life can be really are limitless...regardless of your present or past circumstances.

Spiritual Cinema Circle

What if you could see the best of the spiritually-oriented, uplifting, and heart-filled movies and short-subjects made each year, in the privacy of your own home--personally chosen for you by noted Hollywood film producer Steven Simon from the top movies, shown at top film festivals?

Steven Simon knows movies. Some of his work as a Hollywood producer includes Somewhere in Time starring Jane Seymour and Christopher Reeve, and What Dreams May Come starring Robin Williams and Cuba Gooding.

Steven, though, left Hollywood a couple of years ago to pursue his dream of spreading uplifting, spiritual entertainment--movies that rarely make it to theaters, and often don't even make it to the rental market--yet are uplifting, thought-provoking, heart-opening movies. To bring these movies to people who will really appreciate them, such as you and me, Steven has started The Spiritual Cinema Circle.

Here's what Steven told me: "Before now, hardly anybody got to see the best movies made each year. Now, with The Circle, you can enjoy heartful, soulful movies ... without leaving home."

Here's how the Spiritual Cinema Circle works:

* Each month you receive 3-5 features and shorts on DVD. The movies are personally selected by Steven Simon and his team. These movies represent the best of spiritual cinema and art.

* The movies are new films you're unlikely to see anywhere else.

* The DVDs are yours to keep. You don't have to return them. In fact, you're encouraged to share them with friends and family, in order to broaden the worldwide Spiritual Cinema community.

* The cost of the service is kept deliberately low, so the maximum number of people can participate. If you join now, you become a Charter Member of The CIRCLE. Charter members pay only $24 per month instead of the regular $29 fee (plus $1.95 shipping and handling; outside USA $5.95).

* There's no risk - you may cancel your membership at any time. And remember, you never have to return any of your DVDs, even if you decide to cancel your membership.

I'm sending this email because I've enjoyed these movies so much I just new I had to share this resource with all of you. Go check out their web page for descriptions of the movies you'll see, comments from other members, and other details. I know you'll be inspired to join, and if you don't like it for some reason (which I doubt), you can always un-join at any time.

Be well.

7. Feature Article
If You Are Resilient, You Can Have Anything You Want
by Bill Harris, Director

Today I'm going to write about something crucially important for any person who interested in ending suffering, unhappiness, emotional problems, lack of prosperity, or lack of purpose in life. In fact, it's also crucial for anyone who wants to make any kind of positive change in their life. If you do not handle this one thing, you will have little or no success in improving your life. It is a stumbling block for many people, and ironically, the greater the need for change, the greater the suffering, the more likely you will be to be stymied by it.

What am I talking about? Please pay careful attention, because what I am about to share with you is extremely important.

I'm talking about the fact that in order to make any kind of changeparticularly mental, emotional, or spiritual changes, you must be willing to...

...give up the old way of thinking, acting, and being and try on a new a different way of doing things.

This way of thinking is called resiliency. Sometimes it's called flexibility, or brain plasticity.

Whatever you want to call it, if you want to be happy and fulfilled, you need it.

Duh, you say. Yet most people act as if they can keep doing what they are doing but somehow get different results.

The fact is, you are getting certain results in your life because of the way your internal map of reality is constructed. It isn't luck or lack of luck, it isn't by accident, and it isn't because of your outer circumstances that you are having a certain experience of life and enjoying (or not enjoying) certain outcomes.

You have certain beliefs, certain values, certain internal strategies, certain ways you sort, delete, distort, and generalize information and other stimuli as it comes to you, certain ways of assigning meaning to what happens, and all of this (and a few other things I have not listed) combine to create your experience of life and the outcomes you get.

I have written extensively about each of these aspects of your internal map of reality, and you can find these articles, should you care to review them, in the archives of Mind Chatter, at http://www.centerpointe.com/index.php?page=newsletter&sub_page=archives. If you're really interested in mastering the way you create your life, I have created three in-depth online courses about this subject, and you can experience a free preview lesson by going to http://www.centerpointe.com/life/preview.

That this internal map of reality creates your experience and results in life is a clear cause and effect relationship. Your brain operates in a certain way, and you get certain results. To get different results, you must change the way your brain operates.

Let me be really clear about this: there is no other way to get different results. None, nada, zip, zero. As long as you continue to operate in the same way as you are now, you will continue to get the same results.

This is obvious, you say. Tell me something I don't know.

Well, it may be obvious (though, believe it or not, many people fight me on this point, despite how obvious it is), but it isn't always easy to do.

Why? Two reasons.

First, 99% of all of the activity going on in your internal map of realityall the stuff that operates in you to create your reality and your experience of life--is happening UNconsciously and out of your awareness. It runs on automatic, churning out the circumstances of your life. It attracts you to situations that confirm that your internal world is accurate. This means that if your internal world includes anxiety, unhappiness, depression, conflict, lack of love, that is the world you will create on the outside. You will act in such a way, and attract the people and situations that will allow you to live in that world.

On the other hand, if your internal world is one of riches, love, support, fulfillment, ease of accomplishment, and happiness, you will act in such a way and attract the people and situations that will bring that kind of world to life. The fact that the part of your brain that creates all of this runs automatically and unconsciously makes it SEEM as if whatever is happening is "just happening" to you, that it is coming from outside circumstances instead of from inside of you.

This, of course, makes it seem as if there isn't much you can do about it.

It also makes it very difficult for you to see how each part works to create what happens--something you might want to know if you're going to change how it works. It's like needing to get under the hood to work on your car, but you can't open the hood, or if you do get it open, the part you want to change is behind something else and you don't know how to get to it. This is part of the reason why I have written about each part of your map of reality in detail, and created my online courses, so as to help you understand better how all of this works.

The second reason changing your internal map of reality is not always easy is that you constructed it with one main goal: to be safe in your family while growing up. When faced with decisions about what to notice or not to notice, what to believe or not believe, what to value or not value, what parts of you to show to others and what parts to hide, what methods to use in making decisions, and so on, you picked a combination of these things that created the greatest feeling of safety in your family.

The more unsafe your situation was, the more safety becomes important, and the more you will cling to keeping your internal map the way it is. Everyone, however, has many things that were not safe in their family, so everyone, to one degree or another, protects their internal map of reality from change--because at a very deep level, it FEELS as if it would not be safe to let it change.

Consciously you may want the changes. You may even desperately want them. But a part of you, unconsciously, is saying" "What? Change that? No way. That is what has kept me safe." It may be a strategy, a belief, or a way of seeing yourself or others that continually causes you trouble in your life. But regardless of the consequences, that unconscious "inner child" part of you will fight to keep it from changing.

The way your internal map of reality is constructed could be keeping you poor, lonely, depressed, anxious, shy, or could be causing a continuous trail of uncomfortable dramas to follow you everywhere you go, but if you unconsciously associate the way it is with your mental, emotional, and spiritual safety, you will fight to keep it that way even while consciously wanting it to change.

So, what do you do? Luckily, there are several things you can do, all of which are very effective.

First, you can have a talk with that part of you that feels unsafe changing. In Gestalt therapy, people actually have a part of themselves, in their imagination, come out and sit in a chair across from them and then have a talk with that part. You can do this, too. Ask the part what it needs to be safe in changing the parts of you that you want to change, and figure out a way to give the unsafe part what it needs. Reassure that part that it will be safe, and that you will help to make sure that this is so. As corny as this may sound, it can have a remarkable effect.

Second, you can dig into all the articles I have written about the various parts of your map of reality--or, better yet, take my online courses and commit yourself to investigating each part and how it works. This takes time and effort, but it is very interesting work, and it makes what was unconscious, conscious. Since you can only continue to do things that do not serve you if you do the unconsciously, making all of these processes conscious does a lot to create change.

Third, you can learn how to adopt the witness posture, the posture of that part of you that just watches what is happening with curiosity, but without any agenda as to what happens. I have also written extensively about how to do this. If resisting change is the poison, the witness is the antidote, and the more you practice just watching whatever is going on, internally and externally, the more the parts of you that do not serve you will fall away. The witness is the higher self many of you are searching for.

Finally, the most effective way, and one that accelerates the effectiveness of the other three, is to use the Centerpointe program, meditating with your Holosync soundtracks regularly. Holosync naturally develops the witness perspective without any effort on your part, and it also makes conscious what was unconscious and running on automatic. It also raises your threshold for what you can handle higher and higher, which calms the unconscious part of you that may feel unsafe changing. Using Holosync puts you in the fast lane of personal growth and change.

I see people everyday who desperately want to change, but vigorously defend the very beliefs and strategies that are creating the results they don't want. We all have an almost unlimited ability to come up with reasons why we have to do it the way we're doing it, which is just a way of saying that it doesn't feel safe to give up the way we're currently doing it and try something else. My main goal here it that you become very clear that there is no way that anyone can change their results without changing their internal map of reality, and that defending the old way, even though you may feel compelled by something inside to do so, just keeps you stuck.

In terms of the brain, this ability to change is reflected in what scientists call brain plasticity--the ability to change states at will and adapt to changing circumstances. Those with brain plasticity can intentionally create the pattern of brain waves necessary for any state they want to experience. Such people can let go of negative feelings instantly, in fact, often before they arise. They can enter a state of accelerated learning when they want to learn. They are not at the mercy of outer circumstances. Instead, they adapt to them in such a way that they remain happy and peaceful regardless of what is happening. And, they seem to know just what to do in each situation.

Such people can enter a state of heightened creativity when they need to solve a problem or come up with a new idea. They can enter a state of peak performance whenever they need to make a speech, sell something, hit a good golf shot, calm an anxious child--or are faced with any other challenging task.

The fastest way I know of to create brain plasticity in yourself, to become more resilient--to gain control of how you create your internal and external reality--is to meditate with Holosync. If you add mastery of the material in my online courses, you further accelerate the process.

I have always contended that ANY person, regardless of past or present circumstances can be happy, peaceful, and successful. I believe weve found a way to make that come true. It doesn't happen overnight, but with Holosync and the online course information, it can be done. I did it, and there is nothing special about me. If I can do it, so can you.

It really is possible to create your reality in any way you like, but to do so, you must be willing give up the old way of being, thinking, and acting.

If you aren't a participant in the Holosync Solution program and my Life Principles Integration Process online courses, I urge you to get involved. I've made these programs as inexpensive as I possibly can, and both have a money-back guaranatee.

What's more, we give you so much support and education that any person who really wants the benefits of these programs is sure to get themeven people who have "tried everything, and nothing works."

Life is fun when you are on an upward spiral of growth and change. If you aren't participating yet, please give Holosync a try. If you are, please do remain committed to your daily Holosync meditation. I really do want you to have all the benefits it will bring you.

Be well.

8. Glowing Testimonials and Letters

Dear Bill,

I have started the End program six months ago. The results obtained are simply fantastic. Everything that you mention in your program documentation happens. All my life was a life of confusion and dysfunctional behavior, abandoned by my parents when I was seven years old, started to work at 13. No education. No sense of direction. No wonder that my life was a mess. It is said that adversity forms the character. I do know now that I have been protected by my guardian Angel. Now thanks to Centerpointe my life is starting to change for the best. Your program is so powerful that I have to slow down. I follow it five days a week. Everything is becoming so clear now. I get all the answers to all my questions and problems. There is a lot of upheaval coming to the surface. Your support letters are of great help. To face all situations I will stay on the Prologue program until November - at that time I will start on the Level 1. At 65 years young, I have all the time needed. I do know that I have a lot to learn and I take things one day at the time. Thank you, bill Harris, to have given me the chance to know myself and change my life for the better.

God bless you.

Sincerely

Claude

Dear Bill Harris,

When I got my last support letter from from you and it said I had been with Centerpointe for 6 mos. I couldn't believe it! I have stayed pretty much to myself through this whole period with only 1 hotline call for some information way back towards the beginning. I truly haven't had much to question and I have been very, very thorough in my daily reports for myself and done a great deal of contemplation as to the changes I have felt taking place in me & my daily life. This program is truly phenomenal and caught me at a perfect time. It truly is a miracle how things evolve and appear in ones life at the correct moment! One just needs to be aware of the arrival and make the best of the opportunity. I feel that is what happened with "Holosync". I never in my wildest dreams would have thought of ordering anything like this but with the recommendation from Sounds True, your guarantee and my place in life I thought I could only gain & grow from trying it. I have & am continuing to. I have been with my 1st custom level for one month now and though I often feel a bit antsy or bored with the CD I know from the work I have done thus far and with your support letters that this will pass and the great peace and calm that resides thru meditation will return. The anxious, frequently very overwhelmed person that I have known for as far back as I can remember has disappeared and my approach to life is more gentle. This enables me to be aware of and work with so much more that this awesome planet has to offer. I am peaceful, happy with myself and loving the direction in which I am going. I could go on and enumerate so much more but I know you know all the benefits already.

Thank you so much for pursuing your work and devising this program. I'm feeling extremely fortunate to have had it enter my life's path.

Sincerely,

Suzie

I'm now finding my sleep has dramatically improved over the past month - it is now more consistent. I'm finding 8 hrs of sleep is more than enough - my energy levels are more even now - and much higher as well - I've cut down on meat and now eat a lot of fruits, salad, and veg, high alkaline foods. My general emotional well being has improved. I'm finding now that I'm more even tempered - my anger is becoming much less. I've definitely let go of some of my past. I feel more free now - less overwhelmed in public. Memory, clarity of mind has greatly improved. My attitude toward looking after myself is now my number 1 goal in life.

I am finding life more enjoyable in general, I'm worrying less.
