The idea was alien to me. Yet strangely familiar.

As a youth coming to grips with "occult" notions, I sought out others to convince or "convert". I'd challenge conventional wisdom wherever it was found. Then as I matured, the realization dawned that everyone isn't sitting around waiting to be awakened. Those that were "like me" would find me (and vis-versa). Which got to the heart of the matter.

I wanted companions on the path.

As is always the case, like finally attracted like. I've been blessed with friends who, if not all in total agreement with my views, do let me be me and love me just the same.

Then along came the internet. Those of like minds and practices levitate toward each other from all over the world.

Yet, despite publishing a web site of higher results to be expected from various (altered) states of being, I was still taken aback by the defeatism of my "surroundings".

Higher Self Improvement Pursuits

And now, on with the show.

Article: Entertaining Aliens

That which is alien is foreign. Consciously creating and participating in change requires entertaining new, perhaps alien notions.

The most profound, evolutionary concepts appear alien to the prevailing paradigm... "imported". Thus, important.

To display differently than we do now, we must think, act and do (react) differently.

Sometimes the obvious and familiar can seem alien. The notion that being good at anything, that a memory of having ever done anything with excellence, skill and flare can be transferable to any other activity in which you'd like to exhibit competence seems obvious to say and hear. But to actually entertain such a notion, to take it literally... alien.

Of course there are subtleties to be addressed in the transposition (a thorough treatment of the process can be found in How to make Money for Anything Fast ).

Alien Universe

The notion that the Universe we behold is within us, despite all the scientific evidence supporting the idea, is alien.

Our DNA holds secrets. Shamans and indigenous tribes-people say they receive instruction directly from the plant "kingdom" when in altered states induced by special brews. Medicinal remedies are told to them by the plants themselves.

Our wildest notions of time and transcendence come from studying the sub-atomic realm... that which is within us.

The Matrix Felt Possible

Growing up, I thought of the mass of humanity as being on the loose, floating... free to believe this or that (or to be convinced of this or that). That we should want to be "plugged in"... tethered to the "Source". This, I thought, would be where the magic happens.

Then comes the Matrix with its notions of starting off plugged-in, with the transcendent objective being to unplug. To be free of blind adherence to "mechanized" consciousness. External Merkabah. This works for me.

Higher self improvement pursuits have traditionally been shrouded in secrecy... considered occult to save them from the profane and the ridicule of those not ready to meet the alien.

Like they say in the Matrix, "Most of these people are not ready to be unplugged", or don't want to be.

Isn't it easy to forgive another's transgressions when its realized that you are witnessing actions and reactions of in-authentic pre-programming?

The tools of higher pursuits, the concepts that guide them and the awe, love and joy that fuel them are alien to the masses... familiar perhaps, even obvious, yet alien.

Combine selected altered states with various physiological changes, like the "Photo-focus" of Photo Reading or EFT techniques like that presented in the article below, and we burst open the door to new worlds... only a rhythmic breath away.

Alien Entertainment

Consider the title of this article from several levels. Just as we might entertain aliens by hosting important notions, we might also be amused and entertained by them in turn.

One cosmological theory I have always found entertaining is the notion of something going "wrong" in a primordial Heaven. The result was the involution of Spirit, engendering time as we know it. Thus introducing "longing", suffering, darkness and evil.

As a remedy, certain of us "beings of the light" agreed to also get "involved" but the mission required us to forget our origins. To be totally subsumed by the darkness of ignorance and ego separateness in order to fully infiltrate the dark.

We were assured that clues had been planted throughout "time and space" which would remind us of who and what we are. Records for progressing and evolving, couched in meditative, mathematical and cosmological constructs. Catalysts which would re-awaken our true nature bringing light to the dark and re-membering the shattered world of our origin.

The first of each generation upon whom this realization dawned would help facilitate the transition of others, as was agreed "in the beginning". All to rescue the world from irretrievable decline into chaos and desecration... oblivion.

Ah, the glory of being Alien. I hope I've entertained you.

Hopefully, I've reminded you of how "imported" you really are.

Stop Self Sabotage Cold

What would you give to stop sabotaging yourself?

How about if you could also end all the pain of phobias, fears, grief, anger and frustration?

And what if you could do it all simply, mechanically, and without ever having to "believe in" the technique you're using?

To stretch things even further, what if you could accomplish every bit of this in just minutes?

If you're skeptical about all this, welcome to the club. I was more than skeptical when I first started reading about the technique I'll be discussing in this issue. No, I wasn't just skeptical, I laughed out loud.

Talk about absurd promises! I've heard so many goofy promises over the years that I eagerly dug into this new technique just to debunk it. Obviously nothing works like that. I know, because I've tried many, many different things, and even the best of them take time - often lots of it.

I was wrong.

This new technique works exactly as advertised, and I've seen it happen in my own family, seen it with my own eyes. Skeptical? Of course you are, but read on...

My wife, a quiet, soft spoken lady at all times, never shouts, so this was a curious event. I stepped across the hall into her office to find out more.

She was just hanging up the phone as I entered, and she was pale and visibly shaking.

Before I could ask what was wrong, she volunteered, "That was Mr. Kato. He asked me to speak at an international conference this Saturday (four days away), and there'll be over 300 people from all over the world at that thing. I can't refuse him, but what do I do? I'm petrified. Oh, and the speech has to be in English."

"Well," I offered, "You know that new technique I mentioned the other day? You want to try it?"

That "new technique" is EFT, a method for using the Chinese accupressure points to mechanically rearrange the body's energy pathways and remove "crossed wires." It literally removes the energy from fears.

If you're not familiar with ancient medical practices, you may not have heard about accupressure or accupuncture points. If not, the previous paragraph may sound like so much gibberish. But even if you HAVE heard of them, this latest technique may be seriously pushing the limits of what you're willing to accept.

But back to my story.

I offered to show Shioe the dozen or so points to tap. Yes, tap. No needles, no massaging, just tapping six or seven times on each of a series of points in a certain sequence.

I took her through the one-minute routine two times, and within those two minutes, her breathing slowed, her color returned to normal, and the shaking in her legs disappeared. I asked her how she felt now about speaking at the conference.

"I've got a lot of practicing to do. I'd better get busy."

No more paralysis. No more terror. Only a matter-of-fact eagerness to get started.

And smiles. She was perfectly comfortable with an idea that, minutes earlier, had had her shaking in her socks.

Later I went into her office and found her tapping "to reinforce it, just in case." But still no fear.

That was unarguable proof to me. For as long as I've known Shioe, she has had a STRONG reluctance to speak before a group - any group.

She has done brief speeches in the past, for very small groups of eight or ten, and those were traumatic enough. But this was an international conference on North Korean Refugees to be held in Tokyo, and there would be journalists and representatives from all over the world in attendance.

Then about five days later, while Shioe was away in Tokyo, I received an email from an aunt regarding the antics of a relative of mine. Every time this particular relative decides to "act up," I react by getting angry, frustrated and hyper. It's a long-standing reaction of mine.

At the height of my frustration, I sat down, did a quick round of tapping, and suddenly, in the middle of it, between one breath and the next, I went from major upset to delighted laughter. And I haven't been upset since.

Within seconds I found that I'd gained instant perspective. Now I simply can't quite remember why I was ever so upset. Oh, I still care what happens, and I want the best for that relative, but I'm not immobilized by my reaction to their escapades now. What a marvelous gift.

So what the heck IS this EFT?

Some readers may have already heard of it. But if you haven't, here's a quick backgrounder.

EFT, taught by Gary Craig, gives you a sequence of 12 pressure points (5 on the face, 2 on the body, and 5 on the hand) that can clear away any unresolved tensions connected with particular experiences or fears from your past.

There's also a 13th point on the back of the hand, but it's used between rounds of tapping to balance and engage all the brain's "circuits" equally in the sorting-out process.

If you'd like to get more details, you can find a free 80- page PDF manual at http://www.emofree.com/freestuff.htm.

This manual will give you full instructions and everything you need to start defusing your own fears, phobias and challenges. You'll also find dozens and dozens of case histories there. These case histories outline in graphic form many of the things EFT has already been used for.

They range from a fear of heights to Vietnam vets with long- standing post traumatic stress disorder.

EFT was developed by Gary Craig from earlier work done by Dr. Roger Callahan.

Dr. Callahan, a psychologist with over 40 years of experience, accidentally discovered that tapping on certain accupoints would painlessly and almost instantly remove phobic fears. He developed this into a system he calls TFT - Thought Field Therapy.

EFT is a simplified version that appears to be fully as effective as TFT, but does not require complex application strategies.

EFT simply has you tap on all the pressure points in sequence, rather than trying to determine which ones require the treatment. It takes a few seconds longer to do a full round of tapping, but hey, the long version only takes a minute in total, so why not do 'em all?

But the title of this article mentions stopping self sabotage. What about that?

One of the most important discoveries by Dr. Callahan was what he calls "psychological reversal."

He found that the energy flowing through the body's energy "meridians" can become reversed, as though your batteries had been put in backwards. The worst part? You can't feel whether you're reversed or not.

If you're familiar with muscle testing or kinesiology, you probably already know about this.

When you're psychologically reversed, it does no good to do affirmations.

You say over and over, "I'm getting richer and richer," and what happens is the reverse. All that energy you're feeding into your positive thoughts gets short-circuited into negative results - your batteries are in backwards, remember? Then you end up unwittingly sabotaging all your own best intentions. You don't follow through on things you fully intended to do. You shoot yourself in the foot over and over.

I guess nearly everybody has experienced this. I certainly have. But I never knew WHY it happened. For the longest time I thought there was just something defective with me.

Now I know what causes that to happen.

Even better, thanks to EFT, I also know how to correct it.

There are two spots on your chest and two spots on your hands that you can tap, and if your energy is reversed, they will un-reverse it. (But if you're NOT reversed, tapping them does no harm.)

Un-reversing your energy before you start your inner work will let your energy be directed where you really want it to go

This un-reversing may last for anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour, but during that time, you can safely and effectively do your affirmations, meditations, or self-hypnosis suggestions. Or your EFT tapping.

Nobody is quite sure why some people get this reversal more frequently than others, but it IS recognized that some are more prone to it.

This tendency to reverse polarity doesn't really matter now, however, because once you tap to un-reverse, your inner work will be fully effective.

Even better, if you'll consistently un-reverse your polarity a few times a day (no need to get compulsive about it, though), sooner or later your body will catch on to this new pattern and begin staying un-reversed for longer and longer periods.

Here's how you do it.

Use any one of the four points:
* The "karate chop point" on the side of either hand
* The "sore spot" on either side of the upper chest about 3 to 6 inches
(7-15cm) above the nipple

If you use the karate-chop point, tap rather briskly (but never hard enough to hurt) using the first two fingers of the other hand (about 3-4 beats per second) and say: "Even though I have this (problem, pain or difficulty), I fully and completely accept myself."

Do that three times in succession, and put some real expression into your statement. Using firm statements is more effective than a flat, emotionless statement.

If you use the "sore spot," you'll rub it round and round rather than tap, but otherwise, the routine is the same.

That's it. Do it three times, then you're ready to do whatever inner work you prefer.

And you'll be putting your energy into the positive aspect of your project. Gone will be the unwitting self sabotage that you've been getting in the past.

How do I know most people have this experience of self sabotage? That's easy. The rare person who never experiences this reversal is accustomed to having things go right for them all the time.

They are so familiar with everything working right, always following through properly, always doing exactly what they intended to do, that they never feel the need to read self- help books, listen to tapes or read newsletters like this. With everything working fine, what is there to fix?

But for all the rest of us mere mortals, this technique is something we've been seeking for years. It gives us a more level playing field in the game of life, and it answers that old question: "What made me DO that?"

Will one or two rounds of EFT instantly clear away every problem, every time? No, it won't. Not every time.

Here's why. Sometimes a problem comes in several pieces. Take my wife's fear of speaking in public, for example. It turned out to be a one-piece fear, and she rid herself of it quickly and easily.

Sometimes, however, that fear may have several aspects. I might be afraid of the idea of speaking in public. I get rid of that, then I find that I'm also afraid of all those eyes looking at me. I do another couple of rounds to get rid of that, and then I discover that I'm also afraid of people laughing at me. I might find lots of different aspects or pieces involved in what I originally thought was one seamless fear.

When that happens, the simple, logical thing to do is just keep knocking them down. Sooner or later, I'll get through all those different aspects of my fear, and then I'll be totally free. No more fear.

Will it stay fixed? In most cases, yes. It lasts.

Now, most people, even if they have several aspects to their problem, don't have more than a handful or so. In some cases, there might be 10 or 12 different pieces. Okay, so it takes more than two minutes to resolve a lifelong fear. Maybe it takes 15 or 20 minutes. Or you might have to work on things for several sessions. So what?

Contrast that with the number of sessions typically involved with traditional therapy.

So what's to lose? Nothing but a little time and effort.

And your fears.

Best of all, this is self-help at its best because you can do it for yourself.

However, you may not be quite sure how to get yourself started. You may feel the need to get help from someone who already knows their way around EFT. If so, go to: http://www.emofree.com/Practitioners/referralMain.asp.

There, you'll find links to hundreds of practitioners in 40-some states of the US and in 27 countries around the world.

Can't find a practitioner in your city? No problem. EFT can be done via telephone, so you can easily work with somebody hundreds of miles away, or even in a different country. Distance is absolutely no limitation with EFT.

If you feel like you'd rather start off with someone you already know, I can accept a few phone sessions, but remember, you'd be calling me in Japan. If that's agreeable, drop me an email. I'll be happy to discuss your particular situation with you and settle on a mutually convenient time and other details.

Oh, and my wife's speech?

She tells me it couldn't have gone more smoothly. She flew up to Tokyo, as scheduled, and give her presentation to those 300 people from Europe, the US and Asia. And she never felt a flutter. For the first time in her life, she said she felt absolutely confident while giving a presentation. Total triumph.

Ready for some of that in your own life?

Ask a bunch of the most accomplished internet marketing "gurus" what they would do if... "You suddenly lose all your money, along with your name and reputation, and only have your marketing know-how left.

You have bills piled high and people harassing you for money over the phone.

Plus, you have a guaranteed roof over your head, a phone line, and an internet connection for only one month.

... Other than your vast marketing experience, you're an unknown newbie.

What would you do, from day 1 to day 30, to save yourself?"

A young fellow, Joe Kumar (18 yrs young) did just this and the responses he received are what comprise "30 Days to Internet Marketing Success".

I haven't completed the entire book yet (it's over 500 pages long) and this is only the first of 2 volumes (you get the second installation for free when its released [beginning of next month] if you purchase the first edition now), but from what I've seen thus far, its just what you'd expect... awesome, insightful, packed with sage advise.

If internet marketing is one of your higher self improvement pursuits (or if you've ever thought it might be), grab the first edition now of 30 Days to Internet Marketing Success.
