The Wise Mind – Excerpt
December 10, 2007 at 5:51 pm | In Hypnotherapy, Introduction/General | Leave a CommentChapter One
The Fascinating Truth about the Wise Mind
You are a being of true magnificence and power, and you can resolve and transform the challenges of your life through the brilliance of your own Wise Mind. You can move from the illusion of darkness to the reality of light, from your limited self to your essence. Through your Wise Mind and the amazing process of transformation, you can set yourself free.
In this book you’ll learn how to access your Wise Mind and its revelations. You’ll learn the Wise Mind Process, an original and astoundingly simple yet powerful way to resolve your challenges moment by moment. The process is filled with enlightenment and power. You’ll learn ways to transform your life so that you can operate on the highest levels.
Through this altered perception, you can handle fears and negative thoughts, relationships, sadness, anger, stress, losses, self-deprecation—everything that you perceive to limit you—and you can experience huge shifts in wellbeing, health, work, relationships, and spiritual growth. You’ll learn specific ways to release obstacles so that you can experience love, wisdom, compassion, and peace and find new knowledge and spiritual wisdom.
You Don’t Have to Spend Years Working Things Out
Everyone in one way or another is looking for a way to overcome the challenges of being human. Almost everyone subscribes to realities of limitation, be it pain in your body, economic or relationship challenges, or old traumas or abuses. Whatever you may perceive, everything in your life presents an opportunity. All of it contains the seeds of dynamic transformation. It means that you don’t have to spend years working things out. Through the power of your Wise Mind, you can make dynamic shifts to lift yourself into new ways of being. You can step into advanced levels of your life.
What if you could expand your awareness so beautifully that you might even perceive that you made everything up? You as universal consciousness have creative power. When you step into an expanded understanding, you may see that there is a reality far more potent than your old perceptions of your life. This potent reality is the expanded recognition of your magnificence, love, and power. From this vantage point, what you tell yourself about “what happened to you” is not necessarily the highest truth.
The Wise Mind Presents Itself
The Wise Mind has brilliant transformational power. If you ask the question, “What would my Wise Mind tell me about this?” you can open the door to great revelations and shifts in every part of life.
I regularly ask people, “What would your Wise Mind tell you about that?” Their answers are often fascinating. People from all walks of life and of all ages bring forth wisdom about their life situations that help them to shift their habits, succeed in their careers, remove old blockages, transform their relationships, and dissolve their anger and fear.
What Exactly Is the Wise Mind?
In essence, the Wise Mind is the eternal wisdom of your soul, a part of the infinite wisdom of the Universe. It is the part of you that knows. My eighty-four year old Aunt Phyllis said to me, “I know what the Wise Mind is. My Wise Mind is God sending me my right thoughts.” She is listening more and more to these messages, and true transformation is taking place in her life.
We travel far and wide to find answers. We visit shamans and shrines, teachers and sages, and yet we have in the inner terrain of consciousness a vast network of truth, a universal system that exists as a microcosm within us ready to let us know what is the greatest path to follow, the wisest ways to look at our lives, and the most effective ways to transform ourselves. Not that there is anything wrong with visiting outer sources. This is often important and necessary. Yet there is a place of truth and knowing in the inner depths of being that we can’t deny.
The Wise Mind is brilliant, but not in the same way as the intellect. The Wise Mind is brilliant because its wisdom transcends ordinary awareness and shines like a million stars. It is all-knowing divine energy, alive in us since the beginning of time.
The Wise Mind, also called the superconscious state, is a natural part of the self, as natural as love, and when we come into contact with it, we are given a tool that shifts the very core of our life. It’s the crown jewel of states of consciousness, and it is the remedy for all the issues and difficulties of life. The Wise Mind, along with its brothers and sisters, love, peace, light, forgiveness, bliss, healing, and enlightenment, are all forms of divine experience. When we work with the Wise Mind, we tap in to the vast pool of the superconscious system of the Universe, our innate resource for becoming enlightened and transformed.

More Stress Relief Thoughts
September 22, 2007 at 11:49 pm | In Stress Release | 2 CommentsCan we ever get enough stress relief? I think not. I’m all for spa days, massages, lounging by a pool or a beach, curling up on the sofa with a good book, or just plain daydreaming. But what is stress relief really? When can we access it? And what about controlling it?
Stress relief is the feeling of relief. Relief is that feeling you get when a weight has been lifted (small or large), and you can release the tension that was being carried. Think about it, as you’ve gone through life, one of the best feelings in the world has been that feeling of relief when you’ve let go of something that was bothering you, or you finished a big project and were able to leave it behind. Right now, if there is something that is bothering you, can you think a thought about it that brings you even the tiniest feeling of relief about it? I know you can, if you give it a chance. That feeling of relief is the sign that you’re going in the most loving and useful direction in relation to the original problem. You are following the call of Source!
If you’re struggling at all with coming up with a thought that brings this blessed relief, please know that it does take some practice. The question of when do we have access to stress relief is answered in one word: immediately. We immediately and always have access to stress release, but it does take practice. Luckily, the practice is usually fun and always rewarding! It all begins with a thought, that all-powerful process that is associated with your brain. You are in charge of your thoughts — no one else can think for you. You can certainly get ideas from others, but you and you alone are accepting these ideas or not. Keep practicing thoughts that bring relief to any and all problems in your life, and you are well on your way to serenity.
Serenity is that place where the soul resides. From your higher-self perspective, everything is perfect (including you and all the situations you find yourself in!), and there is no need to “control” anything because of this perfection. In terms of this earth plane, here and now, you can, at any time, tap into your higher-self perspective of serenity and peace by changing the way you think about your problems. This is the best form of “control” there is. It’s not about making anyone else conform to you, but helping yourself to think more positive thoughts about a specific situation, thereby changing the situation.
I’ll give you an example. Christy was a verbally abused teenager. Her father was the most common source of the abuse. He was constantly criticizing her for everything from her looks to her personality, and everything else in between. He commonly found fault with her intelligence, and any choices she made for herself, he would plainly tell her that she was wrong and that she wasn’t good enough. He would often say, “You’ll never amount to anything.” She often said that it was so oppressive because she couldn’t show anyone black and blue marks — all the marks were internal ones.
One way she chose to deal with this abuse was by experiencing anorexia. By the time she was 19, she checked into a mental hospital for a month so that she could overcome this debilitating disease. She overcame it. In fact, she ended up making a decision to think differently about her father. Instead of always trying to please him (which had not worked in all her time in this life with him), she decided to think in terms of pleasing herself first. She decided that nothing was more important than that she feel good about herself. She chose to study artwork, and she chose friends she adored, and she chose the best place on earth for her to live. Her father disapproved. She told herself that no matter what her father thought, she was happy with her own choices, and that was all that mattered. This was very wise.
In a fairly short time, the most amazing thing happened. Her father called her one day and asked how she was doing. She told him she was doing well, that she was happy and successful at doing what she loved. He then said something that Christy never thought she’d hear from her father: he said, “I’m proud of you.”
By letting go of the need for her father’s approval, Christy changed her entire relationship to him, and therefore, her entire experience of him. She had to truly let go, and it had taken some practice, but she had made the transition by thinking different thoughts about her situation and by turning all of her focus and attention on what made HER happy (not him!).
We can get to stress relief through the little thoughts that we think about our daily lives. We can access it in a split second, since it’s up to us using our brains and directing our focus where we want it to be. And most of all, we are the ones in charge of controlling our thoughts and therefore our lives! How powerful is that?

Stress Relief Technique: Clutter And Simplicity — by Albert Lee
August 29, 2007 at 1:19 am | In Articles | Leave a CommentThere are actually a lot of effective ways that could help you in your stress relief management. Among them is the removal of stress clutter. This begins by organizing yourself. By living a simpler life. AND by starting to place things into their proper compartments.
1. Cleaning the clutter
Whether you have noticed it or not, mess really works not for you. Instead, it saps your sense of control on things and in a way, provide an instant source of confusion and stress. So that leaves you no choice but to start reorganizing your things and your way of living.
Simple measures such as regular cleaning of your room or your office table could mean a lot when you have other much stronger stressors around. Remember that you cannot afford more stressors than what you presently have via the people that you regularly deal or through the daily dealings you have to accommodate. So be sure not to let petty things add to your troubles.
2. Take a walk. Try to eat slower. Have more time alone.
There are things in life that should be taken slowly with their lighter handles. You don’t have to take all the toll of stress upon you. Sometimes, the easiest way to deal with things is limit their consequences on you.
Also, you can clean the clutter by setting your priorities right or by learning to say no to things that are possible mediums of stressors. If you think that what you presently have is enough, say the present work delegated to you, then don’t try to impress people by accommodating more requests of work. You can only take so much that going beyond your limitations could mean possible distractions and destruction.
3. Living a simpler life
Twenty-four hours is more than enough to do all things one wants but you must remember to reserve some time for your rest and relaxation. Handling a number of complex activities at a time could decrease your production capacity along with your vigor and passion for doing even the things you like most.
You see, it doesn’t take much to help you live a more comfortable, more satisfying life. Simple stress relief techniques like cleaning your daily stress-manufacturing clutter and attempts to live an unsophisticated life could make the difference between genuine living and living a dead life.

Questioning The Cosmos Within
August 28, 2007 at 6:24 am | In Journal Entry | Leave a CommentYes you. It is in you. A quote from William Blake…”To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour”.
Yes it is in you. I refer to the answers to the questions that are particular to your unique personal experience here and now. We have come here to be in alignment with the source principle in our hearts. For so many of us however we find ourselves awakening to the realization that we have been taught by parents and this culture to forget the way we feel and yield our creative and powerful inner truth to a society that wants us to “behave”.
Fortunately the call of source energy within you and me is too powerful to go unnoticed though many try. I can help you now by communicating over time and cyberspace as I sit comfortably in this powerful center and remind you that you are loved. You are loved by you and are part of this amazing eternal unfolding. Eventually you will come to know yourselves now as omniscient. In each moment the answers to the questions important to us are present. Quiet the mind and allow the soul to speak.
It is easy to quiet the mind. In fact your mind will cease thoughtful chatter each night when you fall into a restful state of peaceful sleep. I am here to remind you what may have been forgetting. And as it is of great importance to teach that which we most need to learn I ask that you do as I have done; do your best to remind someone you love how important they are to this glorious unfolding.
We can do no wrong for in this delicious reality we are existent primarily because of the beautiful flow of source energy and this source is only love and light. If we take the analogy of this life as a moving river one can argue that indeed we have the choice to swim upstream and many try. If trying is a vain attempt to swim against the current then allowing is to stop paddling upstream and go with the flow; and conscious co-creating is paddling with the underlying one current of love.
Trust me when I say that walking on water is a personal and emotional affair. Walking in this life always in the flow of underlying bliss and love in spite of external fleeting circumstances is to be above thought like a king or queen on high viewing life below in love and compassion.
Walking on water (ie commanding your emotions) is easier and easier. Relax, breathe deeply, take this gift we give you and wake up and by all means tell as many people as possible. Now is the time, tomorrow never comes. You are ever free to choose your principle vibration through your emotions. Relax and allow peace, health, abundance your very dreams to come true through your divine non-resistance. And please remind me if I temporarily forget that I too am eternal source energy expressing my unique self through this physical body as you are.
Love long and prosper,

Living Life With Less Stress
August 21, 2007 at 9:29 pm | In Stress Release | Leave a CommentIs it a crazy notion that there is more to life than the hectic busy-ness, recurrent melancholy and rampant stress that is a constant in most modern lives? What more could there be, you ask? How about ease, joy, freedom, to name a few. I can hear the chorus now, those nay-sayers chanting, “but those things are just plain lazy!” No, they are our divine birthright, and the reason they feel so good when you’re in them is the indication that you are headed in the healthy, loving, ecstatic direction!
Life is meant to be lived to the fullest. We come in bursting with dreams, creativity and endless playfulness, and this comes all so easily. Remember when you were a child, running from wonderful thing to wonderful thing. Like in a giant amusement park, we ran (not walked!) to the next fun and exciting ride. Our curiosity in constant overdrive, delighting in all things, both small and large. It was easy to have such excitement since everything was so new. When we remember these beginnings, we can see through new eyes today, here and now, and let the ease of life back in.
Joy is the meaning of life, plain and simple. We are here to find our joy — all-ways! Joseph Campbell said, “follow your bliss,” meaning to follow that which brings you joy. You may have heard from many modern day psychologists that when you find work that you love, not only do you have more potential for earning more money, you also have the best chance at being truly happy in life. Pain and suffering are truly only in existence to help us realize what is REALLY important to us, and help us to move in a more healing and joyful direction. If the stove is hot, you move away from it, you don’t take some pain medication to numb yourself and then put your hand on it! Joy is making a realization (a KNOWING) that you deserve something better and then moving toward it enthusiastically.
Freedom is the basis for all like everywhere. We are truly free — no matter what — at all times. Children know this innately, and then adults attempt to beat it out of them. You could be locked up, the key thrown away, but you always have YOU: your mind, your thoughts, your feelings, your vibration. You constantly have a choice. You can choose to see things in a negative way, or you can choose to see things in a better way. It’s the famous “glass half full, or half empty” analogy. How you perceive the world and events in it is completely up to you. You are truly free, and once you realize that fact, you can change your world with the lightening speed of thought.
Embrace your easy, joyful, and free spirit! The more you do, the less stressful your life becomes, the more the universe opens up to you (because you are open to the universe). Your job is to look for what is fun to you — that is the key. When you find what is fun, you can’t help but relax and enjoy the moment. You are powerful beyond measure, and I hope that you know that everything always works out for the best.

Allowing Prosperity
August 21, 2007 at 5:08 am | In Journal Entry | Leave a Comment“Shallow men believe in luck, believe in circumstances: it was somebody’s name, or he happened to be there at the time, or it was so then, and another day it would have been otherwise. Strong men/women believe in cause and effect”. -Ralph Waldo Emerson
What was he saying here? Allowing prosperity means making no excuses. Allowing abundance to flow to you means getting out of your own way and becoming inspired to take action. Preparation is the cause and the effect is abundance. Knowing you are an able and powerful co-creator it is easy to allow abundance to flow. You know that luck favors the prepared and you are fully prepared to answer the questions, make the connections and close the deals. You know you are capable because it is your birth right to live this life in abundance.
Make the choice to succeed and all the steps to your goal shall be inspired. Allow yourself to be alright exactly where you are and in this allowing your path will lay itself out before you. Action will be easy because it is inspired. The most important aspect of co-creation is inspiration. Do what you love to do along your path to abundance and the road will pave itself as you go. Living each day by stating your goal to the universe and then taking inspired action is the recipe for success and prosperity.
Wake up and do what feels good. Hold the thought of your goal in mind for a minute or two. Doing so will then reveal what inspired steps to take to achieve this goal. It is of utmost importance to set your goal each morning. Set a goal that you know to be attainable for the time period you have set aside. Setting this goal in your mind will act as a team who prepaves all the necessary action that you should take on the way to successful fruition of your beautiful goal.
We are powerful because we feel. Take the opportunity to feel great and the path is all easy and downhill. And if you are the type who believes that we must struggle and work hard to achieve our birth right then great…we will meet you at the top with open arms. But please don’t work too hard because this party is just too fun to enjoy without you.
You are loved by more than you know…here is trust, here is faith, here is your human family all working for your success.
Live long and prosper,

Live Your Dream – By Joe Kahler
August 20, 2007 at 8:58 pm | In Articles | Leave a CommentI’m good enough. I’m smart enough. And, by gosh, I deserve it!
The key thing to remember is to know who you are and understand who you can be. Never let the opinions of others define for you who you are or what you can or cannot do. Although other people may sometimes know you well, they can never know you completely. You know who you are, and what is in your heart, and what you’re willing to do. No opinion from someone else has the power to hold you back.
Pay attention to what others say if you think it could be of use. Seek to understand and to make yourself understood as well as you possibly can. Yet always keep in mind the person who knows most about you is you. You know what you can do, and you know why you’re doing it, even if no one else understands.
The hurtful, limiting comments say more about the people who make those comments than they say about you. Whatever they may say, you know who you are. Move on confidently forward, knowing you are doing the best you can.
The things you possess can be lost or taken from you in an instant. Yet the person you become will be with you always. What you accumulate, even under the best of circumstances, is usually yours for a limited time only. Yet, what you give will always be a part of you.
If your desires are petty, limited and selfish, the world will always seem to be cold and mean. Expand your priorities beyond the superficial concerns, and suddenly you’ll see life in a whole new, bright and shining light.
When you put your efforts into who you can be and what you can do, rather than just on what you can have, something amazing happens. Suddenly, instead of fighting against each moment, each person, each situation, you’re flowing powerfully along with them all.
If your goal is only to acquire, then whatever you get loses meaning as soon as you get it. Yet when you seek to become, to do, to give, you enter a realm of ever-increasing fulfillment.
The more you give of yourself, the more of yourself there is to give, to live, to experience and enjoy.
If it seems like I’m dwelling on your perception of you more than I should, you’d be right. I can’t emphasize how important it is for you to believe in yourself before your social skills can really flourish. The Value of You can’t be stressed enough.

Now This Is News (3 Easy Steps To Peace)
August 15, 2007 at 7:51 pm | In Articles | Leave a CommentIn this age of information many of us are like mighty oak trees withstanding powerful winds. Mightily we rail against the relentless onslaught of broadcasts and paper news and even the gossip of friends. The way around this constant bombardment of information contradictory to our inner knowing of wellness is as easy as 1,2,3.
1st: Turn off the flow of information from the TV, Periodicals, and virtually anything that feels bad or makes you frustrated. After all, it is hope for a change without the potential that our action may assist said change that creates frustration. In other words you have no control over bombs dropping or the feeding thousands of people.
2nd: Once you have found a safe place to quiet your mind take the time to “witness” your thoughts and notice how they make you feel. Have you ever watched a scary film and while falling asleep seen the images from the movie flash across your mind’s eye? And do you notice the more you try to stop the images more images come that were not even from the film? This is a sampling of the law of attraction in motion. Focus on something desired or not and more of it will come.
When we subject ourselves to anything that FEELS less than joy and peace and love this makes us feel disconnected and powerless. In meditation or hypnotherapy session one can realize the undercurrent that carries thought is always peace, serenity and loving compassion. Thought that feels bad is often created from the outside in. Create the world just as you please and live stress free in thriving health through the creation of thought from the powerful foundation of source inside you.
3rd: When the mind is quiet after some time of breathing and witnessing thoughts come and go, a peace will well up inside. After playing in this delicious energy a knowing conviction creates a confidence that only one fully tuned to source will know. It is from this space that pure positive thought springs to life through the vortex of you. You now command the energy that creates worlds!
Have no fear. Creating from this place consistently takes some practice. It takes trust; trust that you are guided to goodness, guided to love and abundance. The source within every person on this Earth will guide us to peace and redemption if only we make the time to quietly meditate our way within and allow resistant thought to pass like smoke in the wind.

Hydrate Your Body For A Better World
August 14, 2007 at 6:20 am | In Articles | Leave a CommentThe basis of our life here on Earth is freedom. Freedom of mind and body are the cornerstones of our collective desire for a just and peaceful civilization. To activate the vibrations and fruitions of peace and freedom we must embody freedom. To embody freedom, that is, to enjoy life living pain free and able to breathe deeply is paramount to expressing freedom within family and society. Freedom within is linked intimately and inextricably to the free movement of energy within our body.
In order to express joy we need free movement of thought and physiological function. You know on a deep level the importance of proper hydration. To be lectured by a doctor about the need for drugs when what the body needs first and foremost is proper hydration is a mistake easily preventable. An ounce (rather 6-10 8oz. Glasses) of prevention is worth… a pound of your happiness.
Live free within the body by consuming lots of delicious water and the soul will thrive. Thoughts of a non-resistant nature come to the forefront of our lives and send a pulse of loving energy across this vibrational universe. One soul connected with the divine source within is as influential as millions who are not.
To allow peace and freedom of body through proper hydration is to get in touch with the free flowing energy of source. Our physical body is primarily water. Our birthright is freedom. Feed your inner spring daily and enjoy the influence of source in your life.
