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
Awareness is the Key to Everything
by Bill Harris, Director

ItÕs been a while since IÕve written about Holosync, so IÕd like to share a few things with you about what Holosync does and why itÕs so important.

Holosync is a way to create deep meditation easily, precisely, and consistently. It helps you bypass years of learning how to meditate, during which time your mental, emotional, and spiritual progress is generally very slow. When people use Holosync, they begin to see results right away. They notice that what bothered them begins to lose its hold over them. They begin to develop the ability to be the observer--what many traditions call the witnessÑof what they are creating in their life.

Though there are many benefits to HolosyncÑa lessening of dysfunctional feelings and behaviors, a higher threshold for stress, a clearer mind, increased feelings of connection to other people, a greater sense of well-being, and many othersÑthe basis of all the changes people experience flows from an increased self-awareness.

As I have written many times, nearly all people create their reality unconsciously and automatically. Most people, in fact, donÕt even acknowledge that they are creating their internal and external experience of life, because from an unconscious and unaware perspective, it does seem as if what you feel and what happens to you is a result of your external experiences and situation.

If you create your reality unconsciously, you may get what you want part of the time. However, quite often you will get what you donÕt want, and if you experienced an abusive childhood you may get what you donÕt want most of the time. My contention, however, is that anyone, no matter what their past or present circumstances, can learn to create what they want most, if not all, of the time.

To do this, you must be able to watch yourself create what you experience inside and what happens to you outside. You must have the conscious awareness to watch the internal processes by which you create your life, from the first impulse to the final outcome. Most people cannot do this. Instead, their mind and various creations of their mind grab their attention and keep them from seeing how they are creating whatever happens to them.

Awareness is the key to everything you want in life, and meditation creates the necessary self-awareness. Luckily for us, Holosync creates this awareness ten or twenty times faster than traditional meditation. And, as this awareness grows, you gain an increasingly subtle knowledge of what you are doing with what comes in through your senses (in other words, what you experience) to create how you feel and what outcomes you create. As this happens, it becomes increasingly difficult to create internal states or external results that do not serve you. You can create unhappiness for yourself for an entire lifetime if you continue to do your creating unconsciously, but you cannot keep doing this once you become aware of and can watch this process.

This is the real value of HolosyncÑitÕs ability to develop this awareness in you. This is the same awareness that Zen meditators, for instance, spend 20-40 years cultivating. With Holosync, you can master your ability to manifest what you want (and stop manifesting on autopilot) within a few short years.

In this process, you will become aware of all kinds of internal processes, beliefs, values, strategies, and ways of seeing yourself and the worldÑall of which were previously unconscious to you. Some people are dismayed as they become aware of what they have been doing to themselves for so many years. I like to see these discoveries, however, as wonderful revelations that allow us to make new decisions about how to create our lives. And, because some people experience these discoveries in a negative way, we have developed a powerful system for supporting you as you use the program.

A few years ago I began putting together a body of information called the Life Principles Integration Process (taught in my three online courses described above), designed to show you the details of this internal processing system. I do this so that as your awareness grows you will more quickly recognize it and know how to work with it. These courses also create dramatic increases in self-awareness.

Together, these two tools allow you to rid yourself of dysfunctional ways of creating your life and learn to tap into a part of yourself that knows exactly how to create the most resourceful outcome for you in any situation.

Though there are ups and downs in using The Holosync Solution (all of which all self-created), I have never seen a faster or easier way to create good mental health, to get rid of the effects of past trauma, and to open you up to the fact that you really are that One energy of all and everything. If you arenÕt yet using Holosync, I urge you to get involved. If you are, I urge you to keep going, and to use the support services we provide.

Above all, I urge you, as you become more consciously aware and begin to feel the love and compassion and connection that flows from that awareness, to spread it to all people, everywhere. Whatever you do in life, this will give your life a true significance and will create fulfillment for you.

Be well.
Bill

8. Glowing Testimonials and Letters

So what has Holosync meant to me? Well, now I approach each day with a certain calmness that wasn't there before. I'm more relaxed and I'm more focused in my life. "Stuff" still happens, but I just don't see the need to panic or make a crisis out of it. I just deal with it and then I move on.

Another remarkable thing that I've just lately begun to notice is how incredibly powerful our thoughts and words are. It seems that we are creating our reality. Every one of us. The goal is to learn how to do this consciously, whereas we've been doing it unconsciously. It seems like this is the first step to bringing about the major changes in our lives. I believe that once we learn to change the way we experience the world, we'll then learn how to change the world we experience.

Now I can hear some people saying, "Hey, this fluffy stuff is all great, but what if you don't want to eat tofu and live on a mountain top? I've got bills! Have there been changes in your professional life? Have you found it easier to succeed?" Well, those things are starting to come about too. In April, I started a new/better job with a substantial pay increase. My life is starting to take some direction. I've finally gotten off my lazy behind and have begun applying to graduate school. If all goes as planned, I'll start school in January working on my MBA.

Dear Bill,
I just received the support follow up letter # 6. 2 weeks into the awakening prologue, I had stopped taking my Lithium. I have not needed it. I wake up each day w/ an okay feeling, not rushes of anxiety that propelled me from the comfort of sleep, regardless of the what time it was. I have gone through my entire life from one horrible experience to the next. A few years ago, I saw a psychiatrist who put me on medication for post traumatic stress syndrome. When asked by another doctor, he said the event that caused this was my life. The whole thing. I'd like to relay to your readers, and any skeptics, that this is the only program that has helped me we/ such efficacies. The last time a stressful situation occurred, I did observe myself w/out thinking about it. I first went for food, then thought about some St. John's Wort, & insted read your follow up letter. I felt calm, I didn't go for food, or herbal remedies, & I didn't even consider an alcoholic beverage because I was fine. That to me was great. I love your program. I change so much each day, all for the better!

-Tonya

Hello,

Altough I don't usually answer emails from commercial enterprises I am very happy to have the opportunity to do so for you. I received the CDs very quickly and started the program on the 22nd of march. I am a 40 year old French policeman who teaches collegues how to use police devoted software. I started to meditate fifteen years ago and did so for several years. I deeply appreciated the feelings I got being silently turned inward. Later on, the internet gave me access to information about brain synchronisation and I bought a program from the Monroe Institute. Well, it made me have a few interesting lucid dreams, but nothing I had not experienced before.
Your technology goes far beyond that one. I am just a new comer but some results appeared as soon as I first removed my headphone from my ears: some unpleasant little fears usually arising before I face a group of people disapeared. I feel now more at ease and assertive while dealing with people.

I'm also experiencing a most agreable sensation of depth within. My way of considering the world in changing in a way I had always expected and longed for.

This is only the beginning ...I'm looking forward to growing and becoming deeper and deeper, it's quite fascinating.

I must leave you now. But I'll keep in touch. It really is a great thing you made up.

-Franck

9. Book Review
An Alchemy of Mind:
The Marvel and Mystery of the Brain
Diane Ackerman
© 2004 Scribner
review by Marc Gilson

***If you would like to read more about or order this book click here:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0743246721/centerpointer-20

I've long maintained a love affair with the work of Diane Ackerman. Anyone who has read her books knows the feeling of falling under that spell cast by her absolute command of richly descriptive prose. Ackerman is known for her poetic, precise, and vivid style, which makes every page a lavish reading experience.

So imagine my joy in finding her latest book, "An Alchemy of Mind," in which Ackerman applies her sensuous and aesthetically compelling style to a topic near and dear to many of us: the mind.

In this ambitious offering, Ackerman discusses a wide range of issues related to mind sciences (memory, emotions, perception, self-awareness, etc.) while striking a near-perfect balance between incisive scientific reporting and evocative, accessible insights. Ackerman takes no liberties with the prevailing wisdom of today's neuroscience. But her real skill is in penetrating the deeper mysteries of the mind with an almost childlike sense of wonderment.

While scientific concepts regarding the brain are explored, Ackerman's strength is in bridging gaps between the sometimes daunting aspects of neuroscience and what might be called a "kitchen-table" perspective on the brain. Ackerman injects into her work what few others writers on the topic of neuroscience do: "feeling." More than making the topic accessible to laypeople and satisfying to experts, Ackerman transcends the division entirely and somehow speaks with great clarity to both halves of the reader's brain. Readers are immediately immersed, informed, and engaged.

Ackerman brings the lessons of neuroscience out of the lab and directly into everyday experiences. She uses commonplace examples to illustrate the amazing complexity and nuance of activity happening between our ears during seemingly mundane moments. Consequently the book leans more toward the introspective than the objective.

While some aficionados of neuroscience will find Ackerman's digressions distracting, most readers will appreciate the refreshingly aesthetic elegance of her prose. And what, if not the human mind itself, deserves such an intimate and personal tribute?
