You probably heard of the term "Mozart Effect". This is the term used to describe the effect of Mozart's music on the unborn child. Pregnant mothers now often use Mozart's music to improve the intelligence of their unborn babies. So can Mozart really influence our intelligence or help us in activating our mind's power? It is interesting to know that children in the early years of brain development have benefited from exposure to classical music, especially the piano concerti by Mozart. How about adults? Wouldn't it be great if we could also tap the power of music and enjoy the same effect? Well, indeed we can! How Our Brain Reacts To Different Stimulus We all know our brain comprises of billion of neurons and these neurons transmit energy when communicating with each other. Using modern medical technology, researchers are able to measure and graph the brain energy pattern over different parts of our head. There are four known types of wave patterns noted which are associated to different mental state and respond to external audio stimulus. Beta Wave Pattern Alpha Wave Pattern Theta Wave Pattern Delta Wave Pattern Now that we know the brainwave patterns association with our various mental states, we can then induce the same type of pattern to achieve the mental state we desire. Audio stimulus is a surprisingly effective way of inducing the pattern change. Mozart, the man himself doesn't make us smarter, but his music does. Through the years of research and monitoring, the findings have uncovered the characteristic of audio that produces the "Mozart Effect" that allows individuals to enter into peak state of intelligence, inspired motivation, high energy and creativity. Audio that possesses that quality produce what is know as Cortical Evoked Response - A unique impression of energy on the brain. This is achieved by having distinct and abrupt pulses embedded in the music. These pulses produce amazing energy reaction in the brain and we vary the pulses to match the brainwave pattern that creates the mental state we desired. Thus, more and more people are amazed by the results that such audio tools bring in achieving and accelerating their goals. There are now a vast range of audios that can help you in many areas of your life like to stop smoking, improve your relationships or achieve financial success.

Mind Power - Money Affirmations - Attract Financial Abundance by Applying Money Affirmations Technique Daily
Why is it that for some us the lack of money seems to be one of the biggest problems in our life? No matter how hard or how much we work, the abundance of money seems to be an elusive choice. It is more discomforting to see that there are others who work less but tend to attract a seamless flow of cash into their lives. What if we can acquire the same knowledge to tap into the power of attracting money into our lives? What if the big secret is simply by practicing money affirmation techniques which take up a few minutes of our time every day? Are we going to take heed or brush it off by saying that it is impossible to do that? Yes, money can be attracted that easily. And it does not take a scholar to do that. The simplest way of attracting a steady flow of money into our lives is by money affirmations technique. This technique is an effective way to eliminate any self-limiting beliefs that might have been deeply rooted in your subconscious mind. Money affirmations can help to reprogram both your conscious and subconscious mind into believing that that there is a sea of wealth all around you. Of course, this technique has to be done on a consistent basis. There are wise people who say that money affirmations are like little seeds that you plant into the metaphysical realm. Essentially, money affirmations technique is like doing any repetitive exercise to change or develop a new behavior. However, this exercise greatly benefits the mind and eventually the body in the long run. You can use money affirmation techniques by playing an audio recording while relaxing, working around the house or in the garden to transform your abundance consciousness. While working with money affirmations, remember that your statements must be in the present tense and full with positive influences. You have to be fully aware that your intention while engaging in money affirmations is to have a loving and positive relationship with money. An example of a positive money affirmation statement that you can repeat to yourself is: "All the money I spend enriches society and comes back to me multiplied. All my money is energy awaiting my command to create good in my life. All my money is working for me to increase my abundance, joy, and aliveness". Your intuition will direct you to specific places and actions to get the money help you need. However, do not expect to see a pile of cash lying on your doorstep after doing a week's of affirmations. It takes time for your subconscious mind to develop a plan for your success. A good way to accelerate the manifestation of your money affirmations is to see yourself living the life you would lead when you have financial abundance. Allow it to become so real in your mind's eye that you actually experience the feelings of safety, joy and freedom that having a lot of money can bring you. Would you like to discover powerful mind control techniques that can help you to attain your deepest desires, achieve a euphoric state of being, attract abundant wealth and empower your lives forever?

Mind Power - New Age Philosophy
With high religious fervour today in the world, the philosophy of Success through Mind Power will help to condition the mind to achieve your life's goals more easily. Even prayerful people are better mentally conditioned. That is for those who believe in prayers. A mind properly conditioned is free from fear, doubt or worry, those being the negative and destructive emotions that hinder success. Eliminate these and you usher in faith, an essential ingredient for what many can call miracles. Regardless of your personal beliefs, Success through Mind Power is there to help you to attain your life's goals because the philosophy is based on the simple principles of time tested practical psychology, devoid of any forms of bias. You are conditioned mentally to face life's challenges and excel, no matter seemingly hopeless your situation. The 21st millennium is still new to us. Some people described it as the Aquarian age. It is claimed to be the period when as from the magical Year 2000, many good things would come down to our planet Earth and affect it very positively. The age was long predicted to compel men to do good even against their will. Oppression by such institutions as governments would phase out, and so would oppressive regimes around the world. More importantly, man would be moving closer mentally and psychologically to matters of the mind and spirit, away from material preoccupations. To some degree, these predictions have materialised. You only need to look around the world to see how past dictatorships have faded away. Religion, including fundamentalism, is today playing a greater role. It is evident that things of the mind are gaining in popularity. I make bold to assert this because I know how people of all classes embrace my philosophy of success by learning to use more of their mind power. My own country, Nigeria, is currently experiencing economic and psychological depression, which accounts for the proliferation of churches as people grope around for material and spiritual salvation. The philosophy of Success through Mind Power is not another religious crusade, I must add. All religions, without exception, draw from the philosophy when they preach faith and perseverance. Therefore, no conflict exists between the philosophy and your religious belief. If anything, as was earlier stated, acquiring the philosophy would enhance the mind use of a prayerful individual. The philosophy comes in handy for the attainment of success because it is motivational, inspirational and problem solving. I can assure you that you can use the philosophy to solve a wide variety of everyday problems. The advantage of this philosophy is that it erects no barriers whatsoever. It is at home anywhere in the world. There are no race or religious barriers either in the application. Success in any human endeavour starts in the mind. Once mentally registered strongly, it translates to physical reality. Conversely, failure or lack of achievement is triggered off mentally also. It is an old adage that "whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe it can achieve". This unwritten law of nature constitutes the pillar upon which our philosophy of Success through Mind Power is built. The philosophy itself is not a novel one. It was well known to ancient peoples in Egypt and parts of the Middle East, where this knowledge was used as a prosperity secret. Besides, it was used in those primordial times to forecast events and protect people against famine and epidemics. In more recent times, inventors like the famous Thomas Edison, Henry Ford and the world's richest man, Bill Gates, have all applied this philosophy to their advantage and that of mankind. Any one can use it to his best advantage by following the simple ten-step principles of the philosophy. These are all clearly spelt out in the book "Success through Mind Power.

Mind Power - Mind Power - Fact or Fiction? Prove It For Yourself In The Next 7 Minutes - Truly Awesome!
Who are you? We all know that we are composed of atoms. But what are atoms made of? Physicists tell us that atoms are composed of electrons, protons and neutrons. They also tell us that these components are 'point particles'. They also tell us that point particles have no mass and therefore occupy no space. If they occupy no space they are, by extension of logic, not affected by time - the space/time dimension - no space indicates no time. Never forget that there is only ever the NOW moment - no other time frame outside of NOW ever exists! Let's face it, the truth is that nobody has ever seen an electron! Physicists also say that the electron isn't a 'thing' at all, but is, in reality, a point of quantum possibility. So, we are composed of elements that have no mass, occupy no space, are not affected by time and that nobody has ever seen - we are, in fact, pure potential and/or possibility. Said in another, more direct way, we can have, be and do whatever we conceive as possible! Is seeing really believing? Modern day physics, psychology and philosophy show us, beyond a shadow of doubt, that reality is not what it seems. To understand reality, we must first understand how we perceive it. We can only perceive reality through our five senses - which, by logic, must be composed of point particles as well. Why? Because they are part of our physical experience which is composed of - yes, that's right, point particles. Let's start with vision, the sense we are usually more aware of. When you look at a tree, for example, light (composed of photons) reflected from the tree focuses on the retina of your eye which, in turn, releases a flow of electrons. These electrical impulses are then sent to the brain's visual cortex. This raw data is then converted into an image of a tree which is what appears in our consciousness. Is the tree really real? There's no evidence to prove it as all you're actually experiencing is an image generated in your mind. By the way, guess what photons are. Yes, they are also classed as point particles - they don't 'exist' either! And you might like to know that human beings are only ever aware of one thousandths of one per cent of the entire light spectrum! Do your senses make sense? In fact, all your everyday experiences of life, follow the same sort of 'filtering system'. Everything, and I mean everything, that you see, hear, taste, touch or smell have simply been create for you from data received by your sensory organs and converted into your 'reality' of what's 'out there'. However real all these 'things' may seem to you they are only mental images and feelings which have been constructed entirely within your mind. Dreams do come true It is often said that the mind cannot tell the difference between what's 'real' and what is imaginary - for example a dream. I like to think that it's not that it doesn't know, it's that it doesn't differentiate between the two. This isn't being pedantic in any way. The first statement seems to rely on the need to somehow trick the mind into believing something is 'true' or 'real' when we consider it not to be. The second statement indicates that we don't have to 'con' the mind into anything as, in fact, it will willingly accept the 'trueism' of what we present it. A dream is a creation of our own mind in which people and events are separate from us and therefore everything seems so 'real'. When we are awake the 'reality' that we experience is created by our sensory data input and simply bears a closer resemblance to what is happening 'out there'. The same process of 'reality generation' occurs in both dreams and in waking consciousness. So, what's the difference? NONE! You are not a passive observer of a randomly created world - you are the active creator of the world you observe. Let's stop believing what we see and start seeing what we believe! The mind does indeed have power - here's the proof! The Secret Of The Shaolin Monks This exercise is has been known for thousands of years and is just as valid today as ever. 1) Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. 2) Raise an arm to the side of your body (your left or right, whichever is more comfortable for you) so it is at the height of your shoulder with the palm facing upwards and the fingers outstretched. Slightly bend your arm at the elbow. 3) Breathe deeply through your nose taking about 6 seconds to complete the inhalation. 4) Imagine a point about two and a half inches below your navel (called seika no iten in Japanese). This is the center of gravity of your body. 5) As you take in subsequent breaths imagine this point getting brighter and brighter until it has the power of the sun. 6) Now, imagine power emanating from this 'sun'. See it travelling through your body and up into your outstretched arm. 7) See this energy pouring along your arm and bursting out of your finger tips 'to the ends of the universe'. 8) Now get somebody (or several people to try and bend your arm naturally - not against the joint, this isn't a judo lock!) 9) They should apply pressure slowly at first and then gradually increase the intensity of the force applied. Do not use your muscle power or you will fail miserably. Only use your imagination - the power of your mind - nothing else. You will find, to your utter amazement, and theirs, that they are completely unable to bend your arm even if they are physically much stronger than you! Why should this be so? You tell me! This is not a cheap magician's trick - this is 100% proof of the power of the mind. There are various alternatives to this fascinating exercise including the ability to change your body weight at will. This is a truly awesome experience and a real eye-opener as to how the mind can indeed do wonders and really does have power - the power to create anything we could possibly imagine! Ian S.N.

Mind Power - Channeling Mega Mind Power To Build Mind-Blowing Muscular Mass!
So many times I'm asked "Is there one MOST important factor to producing increased muscular size and power?" People who ask this aren't necessarily looking for a shortcut to success (trust me; in bodybuilding there is none). They seemingly want to ensure foundational success factors are understood, and attended to. "Well -- is it training intensity?" "Diet?" "Staying motivated?" "Having a supportive training partner?" they'll ask me. The answer to these is...yes. And, experience from 28 years of working with bodybuilders who then went on to win Mr. America, Mr. Universe, Mr.International, Arnold Classic, and Mr.Olympia titles has clearly shown me there's a factor BEYOND the preceding which impacts muscular size, power, and improvement. "What -- are you kidding me?" you may be thinking. And no; I'm NOT! The answer may surprise you. And it's something you've likely never considered before. It has to do with deliberately channeling your MENTAL power to support building thickly chiseled muscular mass. Yes, and this entails taking charge of the whole you; your mind-set and life activities must (in some way) come to support all mental and emotional aspects involved in training at your peak, using your mind to stimulate mega muscular growth, and achieving your ultimate physical potential. Let me further demonstrate, and expand upon this concept by providing you insight into this surprising factor: structuring and honoring The Implicit Purpose To Grow BIG! The Power Of Purpose: (Making Life Work For You -- The Key To Unlocking Your Muscular Best) When you're at the superior feeling/perceptual state labeled as best, that's when you automatically perform at your peak. You wield a commanding degree of power, and both you and the world experience maximum impact from your actions. You therefore owe it to yourself to create conditions whereby this best naturally characterizes your predominant state, internally and externally! This state doesn't just happen by itself. Neither is it automatically inherited or mysteriously "come into". It is created by thinking and acting within a central, overriding purpose. In this manner, you're taking targeted initiative to direct life in your favor, so it's always working for you, and encouraging your advance. Indeed, you make life work for you, and provide you meaningful payoffs through always thinking with a purpose in mind -- aligning all aspects of your life so that everything you do, and everything about you, in some way, promotes visibly creating this specific purpose. As an aid to cultivating this quality of mental/physical unity within purpose (so you bring forth your best), the following strategy outlines the mental states and lifestyle reinforcers enabling you to make all your life work for you, so it promotes your muscular success. (Read through the entire strategy first before you begin applying it.) Mental/Physical Lifestyle Alignment To Create An Overall Priority Purpose (To illustrate this process for orchestrating your life so you create a meaningful purpose and encourage your best, I'll use the example of building a massive, thickly muscled, powerful physique as the overall purpose here.) Step 1: Purpose Reinforcing Mental Conditioning And so, with this example of a densely muscled physique representing the priority purpose, the following actions would be taken to intentionally direct your life to serve this purpose: Phase A: Before you leave home for your gym, perform the following purpose reinforcing/strengthening exercise: Seclude yourself in a quiet, darkened room where you won't be disturbed. Lie comfortably on your back, arms slightly extended from your body, palms down, fingers loosely apart. Let your eyelids close, and inhale 3 l-o-n-g, s-l-o-w, deep breaths, inhaling through your nostrils, and exhaling slowly through your mouth. And with each exhalation, mentally repeat the word "D-o-w-n", allowing yourself to turn loose, and relax more deeply with each successive breath. After the third "D-o-w-n" breath, imaginatively project a graphic, precisely defined impression of exactly what your priority purpose will look like when you actually possess it. Experience this mental impression as if you're envisioning a 3-D sensory rich representation of it as an already accomplished fact. Experience the size, shape and contour of each body part, clearly envisioning the fullness, thickness, density and quality of each muscle group, from your traps, all the way down to your calves. With detailed exactness, vividly experience the full muscular impact which is the compelling impression of your purpose as fact, first from the front, and then from the rear. And, after 3 minutes of this purpose as fact projection (front, and rear), immediately move into Phase B. Phase B: Next, continue focusing upon the frontal impression of your priority purpose as accomplished fact. But now, instead of just watching this explicit 3-D image, step into the picture, and imaginatively become this fully accomplished purpose: ? F-e-e-l the thickness, density and power of each body part. Next, fully associated as this muscular power, imaginatively strike 3-4 poses, f-e-e-l-i-n-g the forcefulness and strength which pulses through you as you hold each contraction. Sense the full, thick massiveness of each muscle as you hold each pose. Feel your entire physique vibrating with commanding power. And intimately experience compelling confidence and esteem flooding your soul as a result of embodying all of what your priority purpose represents. Stay with this fully associated sensory rich scenario (as outlined) for 3 minutes, then proceed directly into Phase C. Phase C: Next, shift your attention so you're evaluating your intended upcoming workout, reviewing every single exercise and the number of reps for each set you'll perform. As you do this, decide conclusively if every single movement you intend to do is directly targeted to causing the creation of your priority purpose...implicitly. Is each exercise for each body part you'll perform specifically calculated to increase your bulk and power? If not, why are you doing it? And if not, what will you replace it with? Are the number of reps you intend to do for each exercise conducive to building mass and power? If not, why are you doing either too many or too little? And if not, what revisions will you now mentally make so the number of reps you perform for each exercise are specifically geared toward cultivating your overall purpose? Next, having reviewed your "plan of attack", consider the mental state you intended to adopt and sustain throughout your entire workout. Oh, you never think of this before you train? Well, think of it NOW! What is the exact state of mind you feel, if maintained by you while training, would naturally encourage peak exertion and relentless striving to further create your specific purpose? Then, having identified this particular state for you, decide to reflect and sustain this state of mind exclusively throughout your entire workout. After 3 minutes of undergoing this target action/mental state reinforcing phase, inhale deeply through your nostrils, exhale through your mouth, let your eyelids open, and s-t-r-e-t-c-h. Now, pack your gym bag and get ready to start blasting away! Step 2: Sustaining Contact With Your Purpose -- Making Every Action Serve You After you've entered your gym, changed into your workout clothes and sufficiently warmed up, before you start training, momentarily close your eyes and again project the 3-D impression of your overall priority purpose. Hold this for 30 full seconds, then open your eyelids and begin your workout. With each exercise, before you perform it, determine specifically how it is to serve you. Is it to pump you, make you stronger, take you into and through the pain zone, force you to summon all your strength to complete your intended number of reps, foster specific increases in size and strength in a particular muscle, produce a burning, searing, engorged feeling in the muscle it will work? Know exactly what each set of each specific exercise is to do for you. And with this in mind, start crankin'! With each rep feel, and unreservedly strive to make the movement produce the impact you identified as the exact result the movement is to provide you. Invest all of your mind, body and spirit to make each set you perform produce a specific, pre-identified result for you. And as you perform at this level of purpose and intensity, after you've finished each set, think for a moment how you're different - in relation to your overall purpose - because of the impact your dedicated effort each set has created. Are you bigger, are you stronger, are you thicker, are you more cut, are you tougher, are you more powerful, are you moving closer to being the physical equivalent of the impression of your overall priority purpose? Know, and physically experience the payoff your committed effort affords you. Stay in the resolved to triumph mental state, set after purposeful set, throughout your entire workout. Then, after you've completed and recovered from your last set, again close your eyelids down and project the 3-D impression of your overall purpose, holding it vividly in mind for 30 seconds. As you do this, let yourself feel a pervasive sense of pride, accomplishment, and progress toward your purpose, all a result of you having made each individual act you performed explicitly serve this overall purpose. Then, having subconsciously reinforced your power and commitment level, let your eyelids open...and enjoy your shower! Once you attend to the power of purpose (as outlined), you'll then NATURALLY train harder, more consistently, and address factors such as nutrition, sleep and rest, supplements, and positive attitude, eagerly and instinctively! So, go ahead now and set a foundation of purpose in YOUR bodybuilding life; upon it you can then truly build a "structure of massive muscularity" -- and ensure the building process remains continually, automatically mega success fueled!

Mind Power - Use Mind Power - Do You Know How to Stop Sabotaging Yourself?
Everything is going well. You've been working hard, and staying focussed. Now you're on track for your latest goal... Suddenly you find yourself doing or saying something that completely ruins your chances of hitting your target... You shake your head in amazement and frustration with yourself - why did you do that? Why did you sabotage yourself again? You are not in control of your mind One of the most common reasons that people fail to reach their goals is that they sabotage themselves. Self sabotage usually happens when you are trying to do something that is outside your normal comfort zone. It is almost as if your unconscious mind is using it's power to pull you back into your comfort zone. Your mind power is so great that it can completely determine your success in anything that you try. Self sabotage can be caused when what you are trying to achieve or do contradicts some deeply entrenched conditioning. The subconscious mind will take control and find a way to make sure that your previous conditioning will win out. You may not want this to happen, but you are powerless to stop it. A good example is lottery winners who end up blowing all their money. They bought a lottery ticket to get rich. The prize money they win is vastly more money than they are conditioned to and they are now outside their well established financial comfort zone. Their subconscious mind finds a way to return them to the financial level that they have been conditioned to - usually pretty quickly! Use your mind power to overcome self sabotage You've probably got the message by now that self sabotage is bad. The question is: can you overcome your past conditioning and stop self sabotage by using your mind power? The answer is yes you can - but it might take some effort! Here are some hints to help you. Be aware of self sabotage. You may be sabotaging yourself without even knowing it. Awareness of self sabotage can be very helpful. When you find you are repeatedly failing to achieve something that is really important to you, think about what happened. Did you sabotage yourself? Exorcise the demon that is driving you. Some aspect of your mind power is driving you to this behaviour. Think about what you do to sabotage yourself and why you do it. Something as simple as knowing the past conditioning that is driving you can help to diminish its hold on you. If knowing about your past conditioning is not enough, you may need to take action to work on eradicating it. Focus on the benefits of achieving your goal. Filling your mind with the benefits that you are going to enjoy when you achieve your goal will create an army of positive thoughts that can overwhelm the negative conditioning that is causing you to sabotage yourself. Don't beat yourself up. OK you messed up again, and you did it to your self for no good, logical reason. But it's happened and there's nothing you can do to change the past. Don't waste energy beating yourself up. Instead strengthen your resolve to lay this demon to rest for ever. Self sabotage one of the most common reasons why people fail to get out of their comfort zones and achieve their life dreams. Knowing about self sabotage and taking positive action to eliminate it will help you to avoid this major pitfall. Do you want to learn more about use mind power?

Mind Power - Three Simple Mind Tricks for Attracting Wealth
Do you ever wonder why you don't have enough money in your life? I can guarantee that your problem stems from your thoughts about money: somewhere within your mind are specific beliefs that are blocking its flow. In this short article I cannot begin to delve into the many subconscious reasons for this truth, but I would like to share some simple ways you can begin, right now, to change this. Using the power of your mind to attract wealth is like a magic trick. You simply trick your mind into believing that you have what you want, and then your life begins to change to reflect your new belief. Just like a magic trick, it seems impossible until you learn the trick, and then you realize that it is actually very simple. Mind trick #1: Show gratitude for any money that enters your life. In order to attract money into your life, you must show gratitude for the money that is already in your life. Instead of whining about how little money you have, bask in gratitude at the many ways in which you are already wealthy. For example, if you earn over $2,182 in a year, you have more wealth than 85 percent of the people on earth. When you focus on what you have rather than on what you want, you realize that you are already rich. Give thanks often for all the riches in your life. Action step: The next time money enters your life, instead of barely noticing what has happened and mentally beginning to spend it, use a few moments of time to give thanks to the universe for bringing this money into your life. Every time you receive a paycheck, every time someone gives you money for any reason, every time you get a great deal or save money in some way, appreciate the fact that money is flowing into your life. Doing this every time money comes to you will attract more money into your life. Mind trick #2: Act as if you are rich. This is the fundamental truth of all mind power work-you must act as if what you want is already yours. Act as if you already have the money you wish to have. Ask yourself if you were already rich what you would do, how you would act, and how you would feel, and then do, act, and feel in those ways. Of course, you shouldn't quit your job and move to the South Pacific, but start small, and with each success, build your way to greater wealth. Eat a little better, dress a little nicer, take that class you think you can't afford, or do anything at all that you wish to do but believe you can't because of a lack of money. When you do these things, bask in joy at your inner state of wealth, and know that this state will be reflected in your outer world. You'll be amazed at how life provides for the things that bring you joy. Action step: The next time you are about to buy something, anything at all, purchase an item that is of slightly higher quality and price than you would usually buy. Even if something only costs a few pennies more than what is usual for you to spend, buy that item, and thank the universe for providing for your new, expanding lifestyle. Even though it is a tiny step, you are beginning to teach your mind that you are expanding your limitations, and as you practice this, you will begin to purchase more of the things you want in your life, and the money will come to you to pay for them. Mind trick #3: Open up to money-making opportunities. One thing that all self-made millionaires agree on is that there are opportunities everywhere if we are open to seeing them. You can prove this for yourself by looking at your own life. There are probably many times in your past that you think back to and wonder what might have happened if you had taken an opportunity at just the right time. If you are like most people, when you think of your past opportunities, you believe that you once had a chance but that now it is gone. The difference between rich and poor people is that rich people realize that new opportunities are always all around us, all the time. You simply need to keep a lookout for the opportunities, keep an open mind, and be prepared to take advantage of them when the opportunities arise. Action step: Today, get a notebook, and write down all the money-making ideas you can think of. It doesn't matter how stupid or outrageous the ideas might seem-write them down anyway. This does two things. First, you realize that there are plenty of money-making opportunities around you right now, as there always have been and always will be. Second, this exercise will stimulate your mind to see money-making opportunities where it might have ignored them in the past and will help you practice to see opportunities in the future. If you keep adding ideas to your notebook consistently, one day, you will see an incredible opportunity on your list that is perfect for you. Then, go for it! That should get you started: three simple actions you can take to begin to expand the prosperity in your life. But don't stop there. Never let fear or doubt enter your mind. There is nothing you need in order to succeed, except the power of your own mind. If you worry that you are not smart enough, not connected enough, not talented enough, not young enough, or not old enough, you are simply creating limiting beliefs that will manifest in the outside world. All you really need to know is that the outside world is a reflection of the state of your inner mind. Know that you can make every day from this day forward a little more joyful and a little more abundant, and then, watch your life begin to change.

Mind Power - Use Mind Power to Make Better Decisions With Your Whole Brain
Do you find yourself thinking "If only I'd thought of that!" when there is a group of you working on a problem. Usually this happens when someone else makes a great decision while you're still trying to weight up the pros and cons! You can make better decisions too if you learn to use your whole mind when you're faced with making decisions. The two parts of your mind Psychologists divide our minds into two parts: the conscious mind and the subconscious mind. Usually you do most of our analytical, logical thinking with your conscious mind. You also experience yourself and your world through your conscious mind. You associate your conscious mind with the use of mind power. So its seems logical that your conscious mind should make all your decisions right? Wrong! Your conscious mind is very limited in the way it can process information... It's well know that the best way to explain something to people is by telling stories. Your conscious mind thinks in a linear, step by step fashion processing just a few pieces of information at a time before moving on to the next thing. This is very useful of you're doing anything that can be broken down into a sequence of tasks. The real world is far to complicated for you! Unfortunately the real world is not a simple linear place where one thing leads to another. It is vastly more complex than you can possibly represent with just a few pieces of information. Take the example of a conversation with a friend. You talk to each other using words to express your linear thought processes. Many people think that this is the main process by which communication takes place. However, several studies have shown that even in a simple conversation, most of the communication takes place outside your conscious awareness through body language, micro-gestures, tone of voice and even the cumulative memories of past interactions with your friend. Your subconscious mind takes in and processes far more information than your conscious mind. If you try to make decisions purely on the words you are using, you are using only a tiny fraction of the information available to you. The same is true in just about any situation you might find yourself in. You are faced with an enormous amount of information every second of the day, to make sense of it your logical mind filters out almost all of it. However you are able to absorb a lot more information through your senses and your subconscious mind. Use your mind power to make better decisions In order to make better decisions you need to access and process as much information as possible. Your conscious mind is a very powerful tool, but it is limited. The key to better decision making is to engage your full mind power in making decisions. You need to use your subconscious mind in the process. Your subconscious mind does not process information in the same way as your conscious mind and it does not communicate in the same way. However, if you decide to trust it, your subconscious will process information and provide you with ideas. Sometimes the ideas from your subconscious mind appear as feelings or hunches about a situation, sometimes as more recognisable ideas that just pop into your conscious mind. Some people believe that using hunches and flashes of inspiration is the only way to make decisions. However there is always a role where the conscious mind is supreme. It can work out consequences and test ideas before finally committing to act on a decision. If you find that you are slow and making decisions or your decisions are not as good as they could be, you are probably not using your mind power to it's fullest extent when making decision. You need to learn to trust your subconscious mind and to listen to it. If you can achieve both of these aims you will make better decisions more quickly.

Mind Power - Create A Wealthy Life - Using the Power of Your Intention
Have you ever had the secret desire to write a book? Or sell your art? How about composing a hit? Or publishing articles in your line of expertise? I would venture to say, that we've all had that urge. Catch is, few of us act on it in a productive, wealth generating way. There is a vibration that I'm going to tell you about now because it's a crucial ingredient - that is, if you want prosperity. The vibrational energy of thought. More specifically - your intention. The magic and strength that's created by your intention outlives and outshines everything else in your life. When the confidence in achieving your intention supersedes your fears and doubts, you've utterly transformed your life. Nothing - no nay-sayers, no belittlers, no doubters - Nothing will stop you from manifesting that creative impulse. Creation always begins in the mind. A thought or idea always precedes form. For example, a book is first conceived in the mind of the writer and then given shape. By consciously directing thought - intention - you transmute your desires into form. My life changed immeasurably as a result of using ancient prosperity principles. They helped me translate my deepest desires into reality. You too can vibrate at a totally new velocity. Raising those vibrations has everything to do with passion. Keep this secret in mind. Ask all the 'how' questions later. First you have to be utterly convinced that you Want to make a change. Not just any change. But a change that translates using your unique gift to create prosperity. It's not the 'hows' that matter. What matters most is your will. When you Want To make a change the 'how to' will generally fall into place like magic. Let me explain. Most folks in business for themselves don't have much clarity or commitment to success. They're minds are fogged up with notions of fear and hope. So, they sit back and wait to see how life will treat them. Then they try to deal with what 'life' throws at them. They don't take ownership of their success from the start. Look, no one is to blame for anything that happens to you. Good of bad. And that should feel like good news to you. Because what it means is that you are in Total Control of Your Life. Your Want To's will define your life forever. If you don't have them, you will keep drifting like most people around you. Take charge of your intention and life will never look dreary to you again. No, you won't put on rose-colored glasses - you won't need to. You'll see that harmonizing your life towards one goal will create a vibration so strong that you know, without a doubt, your desire is about to manifest. Your vision of the future will be perfection. Copyright 2006 Tania French Tania Gabrielle French is a composer and author. Her music has been performed by Grammy-award winning artists worldwide.

Mind Power - The Resurgence of Mind Power Into the 21st Century
We are living in an exciting age in human history. A time when the mystic secrets of the ages are becoming de-mystified. Ancient practices like meditation and yoga are being proved to be effective tools for self-development, by scientists and doctors alike. We can switch on the television today and learn about things which were earlier considered taboo. Even the Kabbalah has gained media coverage through Madonna! Our creativity is breaking our preconceived limits too. Have you ever noticed how much our technology has progressed in the last 50 years or so? We have finally invented an automobile which gives out pure water instead of smoke! A personal computer has more power than what IBM invented 30 years ago! Also consider the invention of the information super-highway. Never before have two humans from opposite sides of the globe, been able to communicate with each other through electricity, for so 'cheap'. We see books on creating our desired realities on the bestseller lists. Movies like 'What the Bleep do we Know' and 'The Secret' are successful. It is said that "when the student is ready, the teacher will appear". This cannot be truer for humanity as a whole. For centuries, this kind of knowledge has been in the custody of only a small percentage of individuals. But now, especially with the advent of the internet, this information is spreading faster and faster throughout the globe. Look around you, something special is happening. This article is a part of this shift. It has prompted me to write this, and you to find it! Andrew Stone is extremely passionate and well-informed in the field of Mind Power.

Mind Power - Relieve Stress Through Hypnosis
It is estimated that seventy-five percent of the general population experiences at least some form of stress every two weeks. In accordance with this statistic half of the seventy-five percent of people experience moderate to severe levels of stress each week. These numbers add up to millions of people who experience stress on a regular basis. Lets face the truth life is stressful. We have to contend with personal, financial, professional stressors each day. Most westerners suffer from unhealthy stress levels caused from work. Stress is an unhealthy part of our lives that can be eliminated. Stress contributes to "silent killers" such as high blood pressure, heart disease, strokes and several other fatal illnesses. On top of this alarming fact stress also affects the immune system, lowering our chance to fight off serious infections and diseases. Stress is not only a headache but if an individual is not relieved from stress then this can lead to illness or even death. It is very important to receive assistance in relieving stress. Hypnosis is a successful way to relieve stress. The power of hypnosis works at a subconscious level. When a client undergoes hypnosis positive suggestions that include confidence building statements and motivational encouragement go to work to create new values, beliefs and thinking patterns. A client will learn to visualize themselves without stress. After the client has visualized themselves stress free the client will "feel" how great it is to live without stress. This is an amazing process that has worked for so many people. When a client undergoes hypnosis the client is put into a deep, comfortable state of relaxation. It is during this deep state of relaxation that our subconscious mind is receptive to new ideas and perspective. The new ideas and perspectives that are introduced will lay the groundwork for a specific plan of how to relieve stress. A client will be able to handle work, family, financial situations and more without having stress. This is a happier and healthier way to live. Hypnosis has so many wonderful benefits such as an improved self-esteem, greater confidence and a happier life. If you want to change you life by relieving yourself of stress then hypnosis is the perfect solution. As a practicing hypnotherapist I recommend that you seek the services of a qualified hypnotherapist that is located near you. Hypnosis can help you lead a better life by helping to relieve stress and so much more. Steve Burns is the founder of The Therapy Lounge.
