The 11 Forgotten Laws Review - The Truth On Bob Proctor's Course

By Adrian M. Felton


I remember the first time I watched the movie "The Secret" a friend of mine gave it to me when I joined a network marketing company as part of our training. I have to admit it sat on top of the TV stand for about 6 months before I got around to watching it. Then one day I decided I was gonna check it out and popped it in the VCR. I remember thinking WOW, I can make my dreams come true - FINALLY!But as months went by and I still wasn't living the life I had dreamed and I wasn't building the successful network marketing business I had hope to, I began to have my doubts about this Law of Attraction stuff.I watched the movie over and over again and each time I got excited about the prospect of creating the life I desired, but still I wasn't getting the results I wanted.
[11 Forgotten Laws]


I was however able to manifest a new car for myself and my husband. That gave me new-found hope! If I could manifest a car, what else could I manifest... a life of abundance and happiness! Oh yes, I was excited again that I was going to use the Law of Attraction to have the life I desired! Or so I thought!Months went by again, and still I wasn't able to grow my business and generate the income I wanted. I was able to attract small things however, like thinking of a friend only to have the phone ring moments later, or think of a song and then hear it on the radio a few hours later but I still wasn't manifesting riches like I had hoped.I was frustrated that sometimes I could get it to work, but other times I couldn't. What was the trick or "SECRET" lol to this manifesting thing?

Then I came across a product by Bob Proctor called the 11 Forgotten Laws I learned that the movie "The Secret" like many Hollywood movies left out a lot of stuff so they could just give the "basics" and a quick idea of what the Law of Attraction was. Bob explains that there are actually 11 Forgotten Laws and until you can master all of them the Law of Attraction won't work to its full,So here is my review of the 11 Forgotten Laws. The 11 Forgotten Laws is an online digital 12 cd home study course that you can download and access anytime, anywhere whenever you want.

I love that because you can listen to it virtually anytime at your convenience on your ipod, mp3 or computer. There are 95 tracks of audio training at your fingertips as well as a downloadable workbook that you can take notes and track your progress step by step. I tend to learn and absorb more when I listen and read as well, so if you are like me then you will like the fact that it comes with printable transcripts as well.You also get access to the Members Only forum and support desk if you have any questions or concerns. Having a support network and like-minded people to help you on your journey is essential.

The course is educational, inspirational and very motivating. I personally love Bob Proctor and could listen to him speak all day and night. There is something about his passion and belief in the Law of Attraction that keeps me engaged. I have listened to other programs and find my mind wanders, I have to hit rewind several times to stay engaged. However; Bob Proctor leaves me excited and wanting more, my mind absorbs his every word easily and quickly. Bob and Mary Morissey explain all 11 Laws that were never mentioned in the movie "The Secret" and are the missing links to true manifestation.

This product is for the person who believes in the Law of Attraction but who has had difficulty in mastering it and achieving success with it. It is for the person who is stuck in their life and can't seem to move forward and is unsatisfied with their life. The person who is looking for happiness, health, and abundance but just can't seem to master all 3 at the same time or sustain all 3. This product will shift you to a higher resonating place where results will happen, dreams will be realized and true results and success will come your way.

This product is not for the skeptical closed-minded individual who does not believe in the Law of Attraction. It is not for the individual who believes they can just sit back and manifest anything because they believe they can. This product is designed to hold you accountable and apply all the 11 Laws to your daily life. You must take action in order to see results. There is no magic button and you will not see instant results overnight, having said that... Once I applied the Law of Forgiveness I started to receive money in my bank account... I am by no means rich because of this but I was able to manifest money from nowhere! The 11 Forgotten Laws will give you the tools you need, it is up to you to apply them.

97 dollars may seem expensive but like I said it is a comprehensive course and unlike any other it gives great detail of each law and how to apply them... other products I have purchased that were cheaper did not give as much detail or contained information I already knew... The 11 Forgotten Laws is like no other product out there and once you apply The 11 Forgotten Laws in your life the money will come back to you two-fold. Opportunities will appear and you will attract who and what you need for success. Bob Proctor is a true follower and believer of the Law of Attraction and the 11 subsequent laws. He has had true success and many of his students have had true success as well. Don't take my word for it, see for yourself and check out The 11 Forgotten Laws now with this 5 dollar trial offer.

PROS AND CONS: Although I could not find any faults with the product, some complaints I found from others were that it can be a bit overwhelming since it is very comprehensive and gives a lot of detail. Some wished that it had a step by step guide or summary after each lesson as to what actionable steps to take..one way to overcome this is to listen and read everything over 2 to 3 times until it becomes clear, or reach out to the members forum and support desk. We all have setbacks in life and rather than give up and decide it doesn't work... reach out to someone who may have gone through something similar and will have the answer. Another complaint was that some wished it came as a physical product rather than digital... I personally like digital because I don't have to wait for it to arrive I have instant access, however; it is a rather large download and some may have slower computers or not the right amount of space.

It comes with a 60 day full money back guarantee. Not happy with the product or results you are achieving, simply return it and get your money back. The product is sold and purchased through Clickbank an online secure market place where many digital products are sold and is a very reputable site, so if you are worried or skeptical about purchasing online, know that your privacy is protected. I myself have requested returns in the past through Clickbank and have never had a problem. Within days my money was returned!So in my honest opinion Bob Proctors 11 Forgotten Laws is a product you want to check out for yourself. You won't regret it as many others have had great success with this program and so will you!

The Science Of Getting Rich Reloaded - How To Put The Law Of Attraction To Work

By Joshua B. White


If you search the internet, you'll find more programs that claim to make you rich than you could possible hope to try in a lifetime. If it's so easy to get rich, why are so many people poor? Why do so many of us live paycheck to paycheck? The answer is simple.
[11 Forgotten Laws]


Basically using the law of attraction boils down to setting up a daily cycle in your life.Visualize an outcome - see the result,Take note of the ideas that come to mind,See the world in the context of this vision,Notice new things, create a mindset that appreciates things rather than discounts them,Add in these things to your vision and let the vision morph,Take action in anyway that you can on these ideas and on your vision,Repeat morning and night every day.Wattles states:You must form a clear and definite mental picture of what you want; you cannot transmit an idea before you have it yourself. You must have it before you can give it; and many people fail to impress Thinking Substance because they have themselves only a vague and misty concept of the things they want to do, have, or to become.If you close your eyes right now can you see a picture of what you want in your life? Can you step into it and feel, smell, and hear? Wattles says: It is not enough that you should have a general desire for wealth "to do good with" everybody has that desire.

Wattles talks about a sensory rich vision as the first step. This is a vision powerful enough to inspire and motivate you to take action to make the vision a reality. How can you have something if you don't really know what it is. Vague or general ideas are no different from seeing something on TV and then the next day trying to describe the show to a Friend. You have some of it but much of the detail is gone.In your vision the only way to fill it in is to go through it over and over, perhaps take some notes. Include in your notes how it makes you feel? What do you hear? Who is there with you? Is the scent of sandalwood in the air? Experience it all, put it all down and on successive days fill in the details and intensify the vision. Spend time contemplating this picture.

An added bonus to this program is an in-built vehicle for producing wealth through many avenues that can be established in no time at all and with great ease due to the abundance of tools and resources making this truly a profound educational opportunity for building wealth that is masterfully designed to empower anyone with what it takes to achieve financial freedom.Are you familiar with the book 'The Science of Getting Rich?' I just finished reading this book yet again, and I find myself almost haunted by the simplicity of its teachings. Yet, don't be fooled by the simplicity, the teachings in this book are very powerful and it literally provides the for attracting financial abundance into your life.The Science of Getting Rich was originally published in 1910 and was written by Wallace Wattles. It's gained something of a rebirth in popularity over the past several years, particularly with the more recent popularity of the film The Secret. That's because Rhonda Byrne, creator of The Secret, cited Wattles' book as one of her principal influences in creating the film.

The Bible tells us that we are all equal. (Galatians 3:28). That doesn't mean that we all have equality of outcome. Each of us is made for a different purpose with different gifts and skills. Making excuses is nothing more than refusing to accept who we are and embrace the life we are called to.Wattles doesn't waste his time with these things. Since the basis of this book is science, he blows away all of the excuses people tend to make and demonstrates clearly that if you follow the formula, you will succeed. He makes these seven points:There are certain laws that govern acquiring riches.Some people will do these things that lead to riches consciously. Others will do them unconsciously, but the result is always the same. They follow the same principles of the universe and succeed.

Bob Proctor is a self made millionaire and he wants to show us all how to do what he did and carve out our own fortunes. His programs have been wildly successful and people from all over the world are using his methods and attending his seminars to learn the secrets of his success. The Science of Getting Rich has been tested time after time throughout the years and actually works.Unless you've been living under a rock for a good while, you're probably aware of "The Secret," the feel good movie of the year that has broken the doors down and made the "Law of Attraction" a household term. But, behind "The Secret" lays the work of a man dead almost 100 years - Wallace D. Wattles.

Filmmaker Rhonda Byrne discovered Wallace D. Wattles and his book, "The Science of Getting Rich," in 2004. And, who knew the small dusty tome in Byrne's hands would become the phenomenon that is presently sweeping the globe. Initially, Rhonda Byrne didn't know. It wasn't until her whole life transformed, as a result of reading the book, that she became determined to bring the knowledge contained in this book to the world.

Nothing is further from the truth. The truth is, talented people only do well when they do something with the talent they have.Getting rich is not the result of saving.One of the biggest myths is that in order to be successful you have to have money, or you have to save your money for 30 or 40 years in order to accumulate wealth.The Internet is the biggest proof that this isn't true. Thousands have gone from nothing to millions in just a few years by learning how to use the Internet to make money.

The most obvious example of someone who came from nowhere and gained huge wealth is Bill Gates, the former chairman of Microsoft. Although Gates came from an upper middle class background, it certainly wasn't enough to launch him into the success he knows today. What Gates started with was a dream: to put a personal computer in the home of everyone. Today he is one of the richest people in the world.Anyone can get rich.We've all known those who were intellectually brilliant who were working a job that was way beneath their intellect. We've all also known those that left us clueless to how they achieved such outstanding success.

When you believe wholeheartedly that the money you need is on the way, you're making the universe to work for you. Thus, is only a matter of time for you to start seeing your income potential grow more and more.You can have all the money that you want so long you believe it's possible.Take advantage of the opportunities.Since you don't know what opportunities the law of attraction has opened you need to be aware of every chance that comes to you to make more money. You will find opportunities for wealth. And they will come from unexpected places.When you use the science of getting rich to achieve your financial goals, you'll accomplish those goals no matter what your situation is.

6 Reasons To Become A Reiki Master

By Joshua B. White


If you've done Reiki 1, you can already channel Reiki.If you've done level 2, you've been introduced to distance Reiki, symbols, mantras and a more intuitive style of healing.So why go on? Why become a Reiki Master? What else is there to learn? Is it only for people who wish to teach Reiki? Is it simply an ego boost? This articles looks at six key ways - some practical, most spiritual - that becoming a Reiki Master can change your life.Work and Teach with Reiki,Okay, it's true this is a big reason why many people wish to become a Reiki Master, so let's look at the details.
[Reiki Master]


You only have this moment, and it is what you do with this moment that determines your future.Your own life speaks volumes about you and about your thoughts and actions.Is your life happy, peaceful and filled with love and gratitude? Do you see the beauty in nature as you walk in the parks, sit on the beach, and watch the stars? Are you able to sit in silence and peace with yourself?

A better bet is to start at the level of reiki one and then move up the line as I have described above. The minimum amount of time required to become a Reiki Master is about 3 months. And that would mean practicing each day and carrying out self healing each day.It may seem like a long time, but each day you will be finding out more about yourself and increasing your ability to use reiki with confidence and certainty.Reiki training is available in a number of different forms.Traditionally Reiki was taught in small classes or workshops for each level and this form of training can still be found.Some of the drawbacks are that the training is crammed into a couple of days and the classes can still be quite expensive.

you will be able to ask questions and you will meet other people who share your interest and your attunements to each level of reiki are carried out by the reiki master during the course.Reiki can also be studied at home with a distance learning course.There is an audio course available where the Reiki Master talks you through each section of the you reiki training.....and also provided you with written materials, self healing MP3s, diagrams and practice sessions. You also receive distance attunements to each level of Reiki and Certificates for each level.

Esoteric Mantras. Not all Master Level courses teach these and, technically, they are not part of the classical system. Carefully chosen, however, these additional symbols can greatly enhance your ability to connect and amplify certain strands of Reiki energy. This can help both your ability to heal yourself and others as well as energetically clear spaces with less than perfect energy.Whole Body Reiki. A good Master Level course should teach you to go beyond what I term 'cheirocentric' Reiki (i. e. Reiki that exclusively uses the hands to heal). It should teach you to do Reiki with not just other parts of your body, but your entire body and energy field itself!

As a Master I believe that it is important to continue to learn and be a student of life, and to remain humble. After all the amazing gift of Universal energy is given to us and that is such an honour and a privilege to receive Reiki!Treasure the gift and Just for today... keep Reiki in every moment of your life!I am often asked by my students about the role of a Reiki Master.I decided to write this simple article to share my experiences with others... I hope you gain wisdom as a result.

When a person wishes to become a master and teach pupils the therapy method, he has to pass through rigorous levels of learning the art himself. He has to prove that he is the best in the methods and only then will he be able to qualify for the master level certification. He has to devote a lot of time for practice and also learning the new methods and symbols. The master degree or the level where a person can become a master is difficult and hence all lower levels should be conquered.

When your students ask particular questions in class about sickness and how to deal with clients, your awareness will be theory based only.Remember back to when you were learning to drive... the theory and the practical go hand in hand.... just having the theory does not mean you know how to drive. Also having driven an automatic car, the next one that comes along may be a manual one, a 4 wheel drive or even a large truck.... Each will bring their own learning's!

It's hard to be sold on a bigger and better deal when we're already living the BIG DEAL.If we love where we are at present, why move?Get the Complete Reiki Picture,The classical Japanese Reiki system is highly structured.That is, each piece builds on the one before it.The five main building blocks of the system are:The Reiki attunements,Reiki meditations,Reiki precepts,Hands-on healing,Mantras and symbols,There is only one way to see how all of these pieces fit together, and that is to do Master Level. Until then, you are, to a certain extent, living in the 'Reiki dark'. This, admittedly, is a fine place to be; but understanding the 'whole' is illuminating.

Charity Work,If doing charity work is your thing, then becoming a Reiki master is a great step in the right direction.Not only will you gain access to far more opportunities due to your new credentials, you will also be able to empower anyone you meet with the gift of Reiki.As an example, right now I am working on a trip to Africa that aims to attune up to 1000 locals. For that purpose I need as many Reiki Masters as possible to accompany me.Could you be one of them?Whether anyone can become a Reiki Master in the truest sense of the term is debatable.Certainly the founder of Reiki, Mikao Usui, never saw himself as a realized master of the art.What Master Level really does, therefore, is initiate you into the realm of Reiki Mastership. It teaches your techniques and skills that you will then need to go away and work on for months, years and perhaps even the rest of your life.In that sense, you never really feel that you've 'made it' as a Reiki Master.But, with consistent practice, you do notice changes in yourself - sometimes big, sometimes small - that ultimately make a huge difference to the way you experience the world.

The Law Of Attraction In Action

By Christopher M. Seymour


Success means different things to different individuals. It comes in many different forms and the idea of being successful for one person might not be the same as for another person. In fact, there are as many definitions of success as there are people on this planet. For instance, if you are a businessman, success may mean being among the top 10 companies in your industry and if you are a student, success may mean getting distinctions and coming first in your exams. According to Earl Nightingale, "Success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal." It is therefore very important for each one of us to define clearly what success means to us.
[The law of attraction book]


We can use the Law of Attraction to attract the success we desire in our life. According to the Law of Attraction, we attract into our lives, whatever we give our energy, attention and focus to, whether wanted or unwanted. If we want to deliberately attract success, we have to follow three steps.If we want to be successful in our life, then the very first thing we should do is to take the time to decide exactly what success means to us. Clarity is the first step for deliberately attracting the success we desire in our life. Success is a multifaceted personal concept. By defining what the idea of success represents to us and by taking the time to write it down, we will automatically move our life in that direction. Robert Collier was right when he said "The great successful men of the world have used their imagination. They think ahead and create their mental picture in all its details, filling in here, adding a little there, altering this a bit and that a bit, but steadily building - steadily building."

We must learn how to help ourselves by co-creating, along with God, that which we desire by developing faith and applying focused thought. The best way to pray then is affirmatively, to visualize what we desire as if it is already in our experience, and to give thanks in advance, knowing that what we need and desire is available to us. To pray effectively, we pray affirmatively. A powerful prayer is one of gratitude. The more we count our blessings, the more blessings come to us. Our thoughts and prayers really do create our experiences!

Action is imperative when given an opportunity. I've known people who have given me excuses for why they can't do something. For example, I knew someone who really wanted to attend counseling. The only problem was that his depression was keeping him from working as hard as he used to and that was keeping him short of cash, hence a vicious cycle. He couldn't afford the counseling that could help him work more efficiently that could enable him to afford counseling. He stumbled on a counselor offering free sessions as they were just starting out. He could receive counseling helping the counselor to move forward and helping himself to get back on his feet. Yet he didn't take action. This gets us nowhere. Action is imperative!

You may have heard the saying, "Thoughts are things." Our thoughts, beliefs and feelings are real! They are alive with the spiritual substance that makes up this world. Our thoughts are energized and powerful. Everything we experience in "reality" has its beginnings in the non-physical. Every thought we think is a seed and every time we think the same thought over again, we water that seed. When we think thoughts filled with emotion, we fertilize those thoughts. The more intense our desire, and the degree to which we believe it is possible, the more likely it is to come into our experience and the faster it will manifest. The law of the soil and the law of the mind are the same.

These laws are set in stone so to speak and cannot be changed or altered in anyway, they apply to everyone and everything and are always at work whether we are aware of it or not.Among these universal laws is the law of attraction which states that we can attract that which we desire into our lives through the power of our thoughts and quite literally become the masters of our own destiny, or as Napolean Hill once quoted the "the captains of our souls".In essence the law of attraction attracts to you that which you desire most and that which you focus your thoughts on most!Everything going in your life whether it be relationships, financial status, well-being e.t.c is a direct reflection of your accustomed way of thinking and the nature of your thoughts.

The Law of Attraction gained a lot of publicity back in 2006 when the film the secret was launched which was a documentary type film where some of the leading experts appeared on camera to give an insight into what the Law of Attraction is and how it works.The film was good for the newcomer who knew little or nothing about the law of attraction but at the same time it really only touched the tip of the iceberg and gave no reasoning regarding how this powerful law of the universe works or its true origins.Law of Attraction History.Many people associate the law of attraction with new age movements and similar practices, unfortunately modern media and uneducated bloggers and such like haven't helped matters!It's important to understand that the law of attraction was referenced long before any new age movement and even before western civilization had even gotten wind of any of the universal laws.

To the best of my knowledge and knowledge of others it is said that the Buddha had been the first to really introduce mankind to the underlying principles of the law of attraction, although never directly referred to as such.Buddha stated that "what you've become is what you've thought", a statement and notion that the eastern civilization had understood and acknowledged centuries before the western civilization had even heard of it, let alone really understood or practiced it.

Likewise, the person selling you the hamburger would rather have the dollar. Before the exchange, you have a dollar, but you want a hamburger. He or she has a hamburger but would rather have the dollar. After the exchange you are both better off.This is true for every single exchange you can make. Working for an employer, making an investment, selling stuff at a garage sale, selling stuff on eBay, or selling your services from home as a writer.There's simply now way for you to get any money at all unless you are giving somebody something that they want more than they the money.

So although not directly related to manifesting your desires through thoughts as the law of attraction states, but you can see the closely related theorem of your actions and thought processes literally morphing into physical entities, meaning you're attracting into your life that which you are giving out.It was in the nineteenth century that the law of attraction had made its presence in the Western hemisphere where people had started to understand and treasure the power of maintaining a positive attitude and positive thought processes and had started applying this new found knowledge in their own lives.So it's clear that the law of attraction had been referenced and practiced long before any new age movements started to surface. Many wise men including the Monks understood that mans belief can directly impact their path of fate as well as the journey they would take in order to reach their final destination!

How The Mind Works - Program Your Mind For Success

By Sep Vergouwen


A Tale of Two Cities, the most printed original English book, starts with the following words, "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times; it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness; it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity; it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness; it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair; we had everything before us, we had nothing before us; we were all going directly to Heaven, we were all going the other way."
[How The Mind Works]


What exactly goes on in this stream of awareness? From moment to moment you receive vast amounts of information from the outside world through your senses. Your awareness jumps from point to point in your external experience, sorting for what is important to you as your minds engages in the process of interpreting and evaluating the incoming data. External information is filtered through beliefs, attitudes and memories and associations are activated. Emotions arise and generate responses; speech, actions and behavior.On the screen of your mind you flash images, snapshots and run movies. You hear sounds and voices and often narrate the film with your own voice. The pictures and sounds of your mind occur all in sequence, one after the other, which results in an ever changing flux of experience which changes from moment to moment.

Your right brain works with emotions, pictures, wholes and how all the parts all relate together, putting stuff together (that AH-HA moment), and simultaneous/holistic thinking. This side of the brain doesn't wear a watch like the left side does, and in fact can lose track of time. And like the left side of your brain, the right side governs/runs the left side of your body.

Brain functions can be broken down even further into what does each side of the brain to task wise. So let's take a look at what the left side does.The left side of your brain deals with tasks like being logical, sequential, analytical, objective, focus and details, and numbers. So if you happen to be bad in math, blame the left side of your brain - or the right for not governing the numbers part of you. The right side of your brain deals with tasks like being intuitive. Trust your hunches. They're usually based on facts filed away just below the conscious level. It also deals with colors, rhythm, and the overall picture, pictures and is random.

For hundreds of years the field of psychology tried to find a way to change emotions and behavior. The methods devised made great theories, but never really resulted in much change. Some of the theories made a lot of sense, but practice didn't seem to yield any results. The advocates of different psychological theories over the past hundred years spent more time arguing over theories than trying to find something that really worked. It took up until the late 1970s before a model that was actually useful and practical was devised.

Those beliefs can be accurate, irrelevant or simply false but they have an almost total hold on the way that we comprehend our reality. It's as if we had been hypnotized to accept those beliefs and forced to see a reality that is in complete concordance with those beliefs.

If there is any doubt about the veracity of that theory, we only have to look at the way that most extremists of the Christian and Muslim worlds see each others to understand that it is sadly so. Fundamental beliefs have the power to so hopelessly distort reality that it becomes unrecognizable.

You now know the brain is divided into two hemispheres and that each specializes in different functions, processes different kinds of information and deals with different problems. Left works with logic and analysis, the right with emotions and imagination.Let's put that into perspective when thinking about customers.

If you open the task manager on a computer you can see all of the applications running. When you look at this list you see precisely the programs that you know are operating. In your mind, these would correspond to the things you are aware of at any given moment. However, click on the list of processes and you get a whole array of programs running behind the scenes. There are far more in this list than in the list of applications running and when you look at this list of processes, you can't even identify what most of them are. They are operating in the background, out of awareness, permitting you to think, feel, act and react to your experience of life.In order to reprogram our minds and upgrade our mental software to produce superior results, we must begin by bringing those hidden programs to the surface. Once we know what is operating in the mind we can run some antivirus software, uninstall outdated programs and upgrade where possible. Most of us race to have the latest cell phone and the newest gadget, but why do we keep running obsolete mental software?Don't worry, when you begin to explore your mind you won't find inner demons waiting to be freed or terrible things wanting to bubble up as Freud would have you believe. You will, however, very likely find some old programs that you may no longer want. Remember, they are just programs and if you installed them, you can uninstall them.

How To Learn Transcendental Meditation

By Sharida Kuiken


Meditation is to relax ones mind and body. To be in state of restful alertness or restful awareness without falling asleep. The mind remains alert and awake during this restfulness and no loss of consciousness as during sleep. It helps to clarify the mind, improve health and freedom from tension, anxiety and stress.
[the science of getting rich]


Environment-While it is certainly enjoyable to practice the Transcendental Mediation technique in a quiet place it is not necessary. Many busy people in all walks of life practice the TM technique in airports, train stations, lobbies and hotel rooms. Because the TM technique is an automatic and natural response of the mind and body, the process is easy in any kind of environment whether it is quiet and secluded or noisy and public.Posture--Transcendental Meditation (TM) is practiced sitting comfortably with the eyes closed. One can sit in a chair, on the bed or on the floor. Any location or sitting position is considered to be correct as long as one is comfortable. The TM technique is never practiced while lying down.

Right now, you probably don't believe YOU have the ability to shape and alter the reality you live in. Looking back though, you've experienced times where you'd focus on a desire, and all of a sudden it would appear in your life. This used to happen to me all the time. I'd want to see a specific movie on television, and the next day, lo and behold, there it was. Like most people though, I relegated the appearance of these desires to chance. I didn't yet realize that my thoughts had a direct correlation to the reality in which I lived.Listen, I'm not asking you to believe that your entire reality is created by your thoughts. But you should know that your thoughts and beliefs play a prime role in shaping your reality. Realizing this allows you to see the value in meditating every day. Meditation will allow you to slowly destroy negative thought patterns and beliefs; beliefs which prevent you from making a lot of money.

The Lowdown on Meditation - The Easy Way.Meditation is all about letting your thoughts flow without trying to stop them. Sit down, focus on your breathing, and watch your thoughts just like you'd watch the clouds go by. It's that easy. I like to compare it to standing on a busy street, just watching as people pass by. You don't get attached to any one person, instead, you simply observe. After practicing meditation consistently, you'll find that the street naturally gets less and less busy (so to speak). Now, if a specific thought persists allow your mind to flow with it.

Regular practice of TM taps the field of energy within ourselves to enhance our lives. We tap the source of intelligence and daily we are more intelligent. We tap the source of energy and daily we are more energetic. We tap the source of creativity and daily we are more creative.This process by which one contacts the source of pure creative intelligence(C.I.) at the basis of the thinking process, allowing C.I. to be expressed in greater clarity of the mind, greater efficiency of action and increasingly fulfill achievements in daily life.

The pilot study followed a group of middle school students with ADHD who were meditating twice a day in school. After three months, researchers found over 50 percent reduction in stress and anxiety and improvements in ADHD symptoms.Effect exceeds expectations.The effect was much greater than we expected," said Sarina J. Grosswald, Ed.D., a George Washington University-trained cognitive learning specialist and lead researcher on the study. "The children also showed improvements in attention, working memory, organization, and behavior regulation." Grosswald said that after the in-school meditation routine began, "teachers reported they were able to teach more, and students were able to learn more because they were less stressed and anxious."Stress interferes with the ability to learn.Prior research shows ADHD children have slower brain development and a reduced ability to cope with stress. "Stress interferes with the ability to learn-it shuts down the brain," said William Stixrud, Ph.D., a Silver Spring, Maryland, clinical neuropsychologist and co-author of the study.

"Medication for ADHD is very effective for some children, but it is marginally or not effective for others. Even for those children who show improved symptoms with the medication, the improvement is often insufficient or accompanied by troubling side effects," Stixrud said. "Virtually everyone finds it difficult to pay attention, organize themselves and get things done when they're under stress. So it stands to reason that the TM technique which reduces stress and organizes brain function would reduce ADHD symptoms." While in some cases a child cannot function without medication, there is growing concern about the health risks and side effects associated with the common ADHD medications, including mood swings, insomnia, tics, slowed growth, and heart problems. In 2006 the FDA required manufacturers to place warning labels on ADHD medications, listing the potential serious health risks.

Then all you have to do is wait for our next article, and we'll get started on changing those thought patterns.The 1990's were a time of yuppies, day-traders and twenty something stock brokers. Any young upstart with a fresh idea and a borrowed suit could get investor cash for his or her dot-com, get-rich-quick, scheme. During that time, I saw my peers judging one another primarily by the car they drove, the watch they wore and how hot their dates looked. The power of so much money, so easily obtained, was intoxicating, and many of my generation began to identify themselves solely by their possessions. They placed almost no value on personal fulfillment despite their chronic lack of inner happiness.Instead they developed a dangerous routine of long work weeks and late night parties which often included drugs and alcohol. As for me, I had a different agenda.

You may be wondering what is transcendental meditation and what makes it different from other forms of meditation? One of the most exciting elements of the transcendental meditation technique is that it so simple and easy to practice. With the right focus and dedication, you can learn transcendental meditation in a matter of moments.

Everyone noticed the change," Andy added.Grosswald explained that there is substantial research showing the effectiveness of the TM technique for reducing stress and anxiety, and improving cognitive functioning among the general population. "What's significant about these new findings is that among children who have difficulty with focus and attention, we see the same results. TM doesn't require concentration, controlling the mind or disciplined focus. The fact that these children are able to do TM, and do it easily shows us that this technique may be particularly well suited for children with ADHD," she said.This study was funded by the Abramson Family Foundation and the Institute for Community Enrichment.A second, recently completed TM-ADHD study with a control group measured brain function using electroencephalography (EEG). Preliminary data shows that three months practice of the technique resulted in significant positive changes in brain functioning during visual-motor skills. Changes were specifically seen in the circuitry of the brain associated with attention and distractibility. After six months TM practice, measurements of distractibility moved into the normal range.A third, $2 million TM-ADHD study, to be funded in part by a grant from The David Lynch Foundation, will more fully investigate the effects of the technique on ADHD and other learning disorders.

No other meditation technique has been so extensively studied and researched. During transcendental meditation, the brain falls into a theta brain wave pattern (akin to sleep and deep relaxation), which then carries over to the state of wakefulness. Physical benefits include increased mental comprehension, focus, retention and creativity. Another interesting benefit is the actual reversal of the aging process. In a study conducted by the International Journal of Neuroscience, the biological age of practitioners of transcendental meditation was, on average, twelve years younger than their chronological age. Transcendental meditation also has positive effects on age and stress related conditions such as insomnia, high blood pressure, decreased visual acuity, hearing loss and depressed cerebral blood flow.

It's a simple effortless technique that brings improvement to all areas of life by creating a healthier body and a more efficient, fully functioning brain that is free from stress and anxiety.What price can we put on improved health, increased energy, creativity, happiness, better relationships and growing self-actualization? All this and more is possible according to the more than 600 published research studies and scores of theoretical papers, PhD dissertations and critical reviews from all over the world.

Drug Rehab Treatment Is On The Rise

By Eva Whyte


Women's drug rehab treatment is on the rise across America. Recent research has proven that many more women are being diagnosed with drug and alcohol problems than ever before. While this might seem alarming, the cause of the increase can be related to improved awareness and openness about substance abuse in our communities. According to national surveys of doctors' offices around the country, this increase in diagnosis has also coincided with an increase in drug rehab treatment.[

While reports of more cases of addiction are alarming, there is hope as well. Drug rehab treatment is increasing steadily, proving that people are getting the help that they need.

It can be difficult to watch a loved one suffer from substance abuse, but seeking treatment for the individual and the family is important.

The most effective drug rehab treatment is a good program that will teach and encourage a healthy lifestyle, arm the woman with coping mechanisms, and healthy alternatives to dangerous behaviors. Swapping one drug for another is not the true answer. It may be a means to an end but is a dangerous road to travel.

Drug addiction is a disease which undergoes predictable stages. It takes professional help in order to create accurate diagnosis and prescribe the needed treatment.

At most drug rehabs both situations will be addressed. You will have psychiatric medications prescribed and dispensed and you will have the opportunity to speak and work with a psychiatrist. By familiarizing yourself with what to expect you can focus more of your energy on what really matters: getting clean from drugs and alcohol.

Proven Creative Visualization Techniques To Get Anything You Want

By Andrea D. Prescott


What Creative Visualization Is NOT! Before I reveal a couple of techniques that you can use to implement creative visualization in your everyday life allow me to first debunk a few of the common myths associated with it and then give you a bit of the history of creative visualization. First, creative visualization is not simply sitting back daydreaming and expecting money to show up in your mailbox. Secondly, it is not simply writing goals and fantasizing about them until the career you want will simply materialize. I can assure you that if you use that strategy in your career development there will eventually be an angry landlord taping an eviction notice to your door. And thirdly, creative visualization is not about imposing your mystical will upon another to receive the good you believe that you deserve. Force negates so to expect any good to come your way doing that is really futile.
Learn More About [Creative Visualization]


By definition creative visualization is the art or practice of attempting to affect the outer world of circumstances by changing one's thoughts. However there is much more to it than that. Creative visualization has been practiced for centuries in all cultures and religions. But it owes its initial popularity due to the world of sports. There was a well-known study performed by Russian scientists that compared the mental and physical training ratios of Olympic athletes. It was discovered that the group of Olympic athletes that received 75% mental training with 25% physical training outperformed the other subject groups that received lower ratios of mental training. Now we come to the million dollar question, how do you actually implement this is in your own life?

Imagine And Visualize The Goal.It helps to think about the goal you have. Imagine the specifications of the goal. Make notes about it. Find out more about its different aspects. Visualize it. Make pictures of it on your walls and in your mind.Make a good plan that will help you get what you want. Think of possible ways to get it. A goal needs good planning in order to achieve it.

Enter the theatre of your mind and look upon the stage of your imagination. Begin to see yourself living the desired result and then step into your vision as if you are literally there. Engage as many of the senses as possible. If it's a new car you want imagine how you would look in it. How does the new leather smell? Feel the notches on the steering wheel. Do this for a few minutes, especially before you go to sleep at night. Once you get in the routine of doing this consistently you will begin to ACT in alignment with your vision and the manifestation will happen.

Creative visualization has been long heralded as one of the major keys to the successful application of the Law of Attraction, but many people don't know how to do it well, or even believe that they can do it at all. Moreover, the question that many people would want answered before even making a serious attempt at creative visualization is: does it work at all?

Draw it out. Is your goal something that you can picture visually? If so, get a picture of what your goal looks like. If it's a car, get a picture of the exact car, or draw it as best you can. If your goal is to break through your fear and deliver a great speech, picture yourself on stage presenting to an attentive and appreciative audience. It doesn't matter if you're artistically challenged like me -- no one else is going to see your drawing. It's simply another way to convey your deepest desire to the universe.

Make a concrete visualization of that dream house in your mind. If possible, think of it regularly. You can make designs or picture drawings of that goal in mind. You can cut out pictures of it and place them someplace where you can see it each day - on your bedroom wall, on your refrigerator door, in your wallet.

Believe that you can have that goal someday. You need to believe that you will have that happen someday soon.Of course, you will need to work towards that goal. Having a dream entails you to work hard for it and do everything in order to have it. If it is that dream house you have, save money for it. Everything you do will have to be focused on that dream so as to take the necessary steps to coming closer to reaching it.As you work to have that dream, you will need to stick it out to the end. There will be setbacks and trials that will try to hinder you from achieving your dream but you will need to find ways in order to get to it still regardless of whatever happens.

How To Stop Stammering

By Kay Rozenberg


If learning how to stop stammering appeals to you, then this article is exactly what you have been looking for. Let me tell you, I know all too well what it's like to suffer from a stammer, otherwise known as a stutter in the UK. I had this issue for many years, and it can really affect your confidence, as well as a whole host of other things. In this article, you're going to learn exactly how to speak fluently, super quickly!
[how to stop stammering]


I guess for people who speak fluently, they just don't know what stammerers go through. To them, they look at a stammerer, and see someone who struggles with speaking. Well, I think this type of speech problem is like an iceberg. What everyone else sees is only a fraction of the problem. When I stuttered, my confidence was at rock bottom, and felt very unhappy with where I was in life.I also used to shy away from large social gatherings, or places where I would have to speak a lot, or speak louder than normal, such as clubs. Often, I would simply decide to stay in at home by myself, than go out and have fun partying with my friends, all because I was terrified of stuttering like crazy, and people looking at me like I was some sort of freak.

Therefore, if you find yourself stuttering a lot more when trying to make a good impression with a stranger, or talking to a group of people, then you need to find a way to relax. Yoga is a good way to relieve the built up stress in your body, so this could help improve fluency.A great tip I can give you, if you want to know how to stop stammering, is to pause and collect your thoughts before you speak. Give it a try when you're next out, it may really help you out.

Let me give an example. To stop stammering while you talk to a superior, try and gather your thoughts before you speak. Maintain eye contact and speak slowly and clearly. And pay attention to your speech patterns, especially the use of filler words. In fact, the road down to stop stammering can be reduced to two things: changing your mental attitude and taking control over your physical behavior. In time, you will find that your speech patterns will be normal.

Although everyone trips over their words from time to time, some people do it on a constant and subconscious level. If you are an adult who has stuttering or stammering problems, then you know how strongly this affects every aspect of your life.When most people feel nervous around meeting someone new, your nerves are taken to a whole new level. This is because you have to worry about whether or not you are going to stutter and how they are going to take it. You are used to people giggling or laughing at you and it really hurts your self-esteem. All you want is for your stuttering to be gone so you can have some confidence in yourself and not stand out any more.

Several 'tricks' exist, that may work for some, but not for others. Remember that the only way for you to know whether something works for you, is to try,Special devices like the speecheasy will fool your brain into thinking you're speaking in unison. The device fits in your ear, much like a hearing aid.Try engaging in a challenging sport that involves a solid measure of physical and mental discipline. Martial arts like karate are a good choice.Try "singing" the words. Remember British idol star Gareth Gates? He had major trouble speaking, but is a great singer. I'm not saying you should go about life singing on every occasion, but make it a method of practicing control.Consistently give yourself the mental command 'stutter now' every time you start speaking. Do this weeks on end. This involves making stuttering a conscious process and thus giving you the ability to control and manipulate it.

The definite stuttering cure,The sad truth is, that a definitive medicinal stuttering cure does not exist. However, that does not mean you shouldn't explore therapeutical means in your quest to learn how to stop stuttering. Let me reiterate that the only way to find out whether a method truly works for you, is to give it a serious go.Stuttering is a speech disorder characterized by the abnormal flow of speech. Speech is broken up by frequent repetitions or by dragging out speech sounds, and a person's inability to vocalize the beginning of words. The speech interruptions may be accompanied by trembling of the lips and jaw and rapid eye blinking when the stutterer attempts to vocalize words and sentences.

Speaking in front of a group of people or talking on the telephone can exacerbate stuttering. Other situations such as singing may cause the symptoms of stuttering to disappear.It is estimated that over three million Americans stutter. Stuttering appears most frequently in children between the ages of 2 and 6. Stuttering affects boys 3 times more often than girls.

As I got older, my stuttering wasn't as bad and I realized that every time I wasn't feeling scared or thinking about me stuttering, I wouldn't stutter at all or it wasn't that bad.So, If you could decrease your stammering by one notch, I bet you would feel better about yourself. I've learned that people who stutter want to get into certain emotional states of mind and that causes them to begin stuttering because it acts like a trigger.

The number one tip to learn how to stop stuttering is to think before you speak. Often, I would mess up my sentences in stressful situations, yet when I was singing a song I liked, my stutter was basically gone! This was because I knew what I was going to say as the words were in my head. So instead of making a sentence up as you go along, say it in your head first.My second tip is to practise your speaking by grabbing a book and reading aloud to a group of friends or family members. What this does, is it gets you into a good speaking habit while also boosting your confidence when speaking to a group of several people.My final tip to learning how to stop stuttering is to only speak on the exhale. When I used to stutter, I kept making the terrible mistake of holding your breath whilst speaking. This makes you rush your sentences and can make the stutter worse. Instead, take deep breaths and speak whilst slowly exhaling.I have outlined a few tips here about how to stop stuttering which worked for me when I had a problem with my speech fluency.

How To Write A Book On 100 Days

By Shon L. Phu


Want to write a book? You can. You start writing, and you keep going. At around 80,000 words, you've got yourself a book. Now what? You sell the book to a major publisher, hit the bestseller lists, and order your new cherry-red Ferrari.
Learn More About [How to Write a Book & Become a Published Author - Brian Tracy]


Writing has a beginning, middle, and an end. Some writers start at the end and then try to figure out how the story got there. Others like to start at the very beginning and work their way through to the end. And still others start with an idea that could be anywhere in the story. They just simply start.Start writing is the best advice any new writer can learn from an old pro. But, when they start talking to several old pros, they come to realize that there is no one way to begin. Each strategy works for each writer, so new writers may want to try several strategies until they find what works. But if you really want to hold a writer's imagination to the fire to get a definitive answer to how to write a book, then please read on.

If you're looking to write fiction, get the general storyline in your head and just start. No doubt the story will take twists and turns along the way, so don't worry too much at the beginning if you don't know where you're headed - just get at it. Don't worry about perfection. Just keep writing. You will need to do some re-writing no matter how perfect you think your writing is. It doesn't matter if you're a member of Mensa, you and every other writer should count on the need for at least minor revisions. You may not believe this at first, but when you finally complete your manuscript and put it aside for a few weeks, you'll find you've written things that require clarification, or abridging, or re-structuring. Passages of conversation that once seemed natural to you may later feel stilted. But don't worry about this while you're writing. Just keep going.

Let's imagine that you've read a Harry Potter novel, and you're so enthusiastic that you're inspired to write your own children's novel. The words pour out of you; you're on fire. You write and write and write, and the pages pile up on your computer's hard drive.This is great. While you're writing, ask yourself: "In a bookstore, where would this book of mine be shelved?"If you're not sure, go to a bookstore and wander around the shelves. Is your book in the nonfiction section? In the children's section? In the romance novel or mystery section?

Reward yourself when you're done. You need to put your manuscript aside for a few weeks, anyway. Even Stephen King follows this practice. So have a party or take a vacation. Refresh yourself before the real work, the re-writing, begins.

Here's my 'trick'. When I get an idea for a book I get a ring binder and label it with my book title. Then I chuck into that ring binder some blank paper and a few plastic punched pockets to store things in. Then as I go about my work over the coming days I'll just scribble down on the paper in my folder any ideas I get which might be useful for the book. Also if I see any articles in newspapers or magazines, I'll rip them out and place them in the plastic pockets in the binder. Similarly, if I see a web page which might have some value to my book, I'll print it out and shove it in the binder. I do not make any value judgements, I do not try to put things in order, I simply chuck everything that might be useful into the ring binder. I also jot down questions that people ask me that are related to the book subject and I try to come up with my own questions which the book might answer. Anything and everything is collected into the ring binder.

Success In Life And How To Achieve It

By William G. Lott


Success in life is a personal endeavour. What one person perceives to be important and successful in life may be completely opposite to what another individual believes. This is why the world and it's people are such unique and dynamic forces in all of our lives. The opportunities presented to us everyday are diverse because we have such a great variety of people, interests and choice available to us. The truth is we have choice. We have choice in all of our decisions to move us forward in life. But we really need to know in what direction we are passionate about moving forward in.
[Accelerated Learning Techniques Brian Tracy]


This is where you need to be decisive. You need to step up and make the hard decisions of where you want your life to go. What path do you want to follow? What is your definition of success?The world needs diversity and this helps us to keep moving in the right direction.For some success may be moving up the corporate ladder or running a successful business. For others success could be finding their soul mate and having a family and for others success in life may be reaching sporting or educational goals they have set for themselves. All of these are perfectly fine. Because success for you is what makes you happy and fulfilled.

There is no substitute for diligence. You can attend multitudes of conferences and listen to all the subject matter experts you want to, but if you persist to be lazy, you don't have what it takes to become a success in life (sorry about being so brutally honest). You may be a person of faith and you can pray to God for success all night long, but if you have lazy hands, you are destined for failure.

Stay focused. I want to stress this point as many people start out very enthusiastic and then lose their momentum. To achieve success in any area you need to stay focused on your goals and pursue them with tenacity.Learn from people who have achieved what you desire. Learn from the best but never compromise what you desire.Work at your goal. If what you are going for is really worth it then you will not mind working hard for it. If the effort needed to achieve your goals to be successful does not excite you then you need to ask yourself the question is this goal for you or are you trying to please somebody else.

I know the answer already, but let me ask the question anyway: Do you want to realize success in life? Who in his or her right mind is going to say he wants to be a failure, right. On the other hand, some people who answer yes in words say no by their actions. "Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth," the Bible says (Proverbs 10:4).Talk is cheap. Realizing success in life requires that we conscientiously do the things that enable us to avoid failure. And according to the verse above, lazy hands make one poor. Note that the verse is not job-specific. Lazy hands make one poor, no matter what the person's goal in life is. Similarly, "Diligent hands bring wealth," no matter what you aspire to do.

Exert more effort in what you are doing and make it better. In aiming to succeed you have to give everything your best. If your past has aggravating experiences, this time around you should have accomplishments, triumph and victory, and that is all because you did your best and you did everything that you could do to make it to the top.Believe in what you can do. Nobody else would start believing you but yourself. If you don't believe that you can do more that you can right now, who would? It is essential that you know yourself and up to what extent can you give, this way you will be able to evaluate your competencies in whatever task that will be given to you.Now that you know this, all you have to do is to keep these steps in mind and perform them accordingly. You may find some other principles that you can add in to make sure that you hit your target. But as soon as you are up there, do not forget to humble yourself, because that is what made successful people who they are right now, and you better remember all of these from now on.

Supplements For Relieving Anxiety

By Patricia E. Beeson


Anxiety and depression are common disorders that many people suffer from. Doctors and scientists will agree that good nutrition and the right combination of vitamins and supplements can reduce or even alleviate the need for prescription based medications. There are several different supplements that may help bring anxiety under control. All of these supplements can be purchased over the counter without a prescription. Consulting a health professional before taking any new supplements is always recommended, especially if they are going to be added with prescription medication.
[Supplements For Anxiety]


Passion Flower (Passiflora Incarnata).Passion Flower is an herbal supplement. The leaves, petals, and stems of the plant are used in making teas or tinctures. When in tea form it may be mixed with other calming herbs to increase its effectiveness. Tinctures can be added to juice or other drinks and taken as needed. Passion flower is primarily used as a calming agent to help with anxiety or insomnia. Doctors agree that is does work as well as some prescription drugs for aiding in anxiety disorders, however, there are few studies on how it actually works. It is theorized that it increases the production of GABA (gamma aminobutyric acid) in the brain. GABA is an amino acid that helps calm and reduce hyper-activity which is why passion flower has become such a popular supplement for treating children.

GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid).GABA is naturally occurring amino acid that is produced by the brain and acts as a neurotransmitter (the same way SSRI's are intended to do by blocking nerve impulses related to stress and anxiety). When GABA is depleted in the brain due to poor diet or stress, the nerves tend to "over-fire," thus causing anxiety, panic and stress.The simple way to correct this condition is by taking GABA supplements found at any health food store or vitamin supplier. In addition, research shows that replenishing GABA to the brain can also help fight depression, insomnia or other neurological conditions.

How to use it: The herb can be dried and you can eat half a gram three to four times a day. You can mix it in with some muesli and yoghurt since it doesn't taste that great. Alternatively, passion flower can be made into a tea of which you can drink a few cups a day.Chamomile.Another age old herbal supplement which also helps eases your tense muscles which are often a result of stress. It's tasty and because of it being so readily available it is very popular for people with panic disorder and those who suffer from insomnia or even night terrors.

Because calcium and magnesium promote relaxation and calmness, supplements should be taken before bed to avoid drowsiness. Likewise, calcium and magnesium can be naturally added to the body by consuming dairy products, green leafy vegetables and whole-grain cereals.For betterment of cognition/improving focus and mental stamina,Alpha GPC (choline) - A more potent supply of choline, as compared to lecithin. It is a great auxiliary substance to piracetam, which depletes acetylcholine, ergo adequate transmission will be maintained.Aniracetam - A nootropic (memory/learning enhancing) dietary supplement that is immensely useful when your thinking is obscured by anxiety. Depersonalization often causes brain fog and therefore I found it to be a helpful implement when learning/working. Furthermore it also exhibited anxiolytic properties in laboratory mice via action on dopamine. Take 2 - 3 750mg pills daily.

Winter Cherry (Withania Somnifera).Winter cherry is an herbal supplement that comes from India. It is sometimes referred to as Ashwaganha. The root of the plant is powered and sold in pill form. This plant is used to treat both depression and anxiety. There are no known side effects for this herbal supplement. It is not recommended for women who are pregnant or nursing. People who are taking MAO inhibitors should also avoid this supplement.

5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan).5-HTP is an amino acid. It occurs naturally is foods such as turkey, milk, and pumpkins. It is metabolized in the body and turned into the chemical Tryptophan. This chemical is thought to increase production of Serotonin and Melatonin in the brain, both of which are highly effective mood stabilizers. 5-HTP can be found in capsule form and added as a dietary supplement. There are no known side effects and it is generally thought of as being safe.

Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid).Vitamin C occurs naturally is fresh fruits. It is often used to protect the body from illness. Research had shown that deficiencies in vitamin C may cause mental disease and anxiety. This vitamin can be found in a variety of forms such as pill and liquid. Often foods are enriched with vitamin C to promote health. There are no known risk associated with vitamin C. It is a water soluble vitamin and the risk of overdose is low.

Lecithin - Not only does it reduce the frequency and severity of migraines, but it also helps you to achieve an overall calm state of mind. I found it to be outstanding in reducing panic attacks which many people report along with depersonalization. The cholinergic system is involved in memory and learning among myriad other sympathetic and parasympathetic responses. Therefore lecithin, being a precursor to acetylcholine, will positively address cognitive impairments such as brain fog.L-theanine - Extract from green tea that evokes a focused state of relaxation without making you tired or overly stimulated. Along with its nootropic properties it is also a worthy mood-enhancer. 400-800mg daily should do the job.Improvement without noticeable sedation/stimulation,Vitamin B - chronic supplementation of b-complex has been shown to reduce work related stress in addition to attenuating confusion and depression. I recommend using the sublingual form if accessible due to its high bioavailability. It is difficult to overdose on B-vitamin since it is water-soluble, so don't be afraid to incorporate it into your daily diet.

Once you have decided to take the challenge and try one of the many supplements for anxiety and stress you will be faced with many different choices. For me those containing passion flower or lavender seem to work the best for daily daytime use. Valerian root on the other hand creates drowsiness, so unless you are looking for a sleep remedy valerian should be excluded.Also, there are both liquid and tablet formulas. Without a doubt the liquid formula will get into your system faster, and are more appropriate for unexpected stressors. But ultimately it is a personal choice with both types of herbal remedies for anxiety and stress shown to achieve excellent results.

Five Natural Skin Care Recipes

By Zara Panton


Summer has come and gone, bringing about the start of fall and the need for a new natural skin care routine. During the fall season weather changes and the same skin care products you were using during warmer summer months may not be as effective in preventing dry skin and should be replaced. This fall switch to natural skin care products and try creating some of your own with the easy to make recipes below.[
[Natural Skin Care]
]

The Secrets To The Potency Of Organic Argan Oil.The reason behind this is simple - it gives people extraordinarily healthy skin because of the health giving nutrients that nature endowed it. Its benefits include but are not limited to:Argan oil contains many antioxidants that promote good health. One good example of these antioxidants is Vitamin E. It works to make it easier for the skin to bind with water and it also fights free radicals that can potentially harm your system. The skin, in turn, becomes capable of holding more moisture to keep it elastic. The amazing fact is that this oil contains twice or even three times the amount of Vitamin E that olive oil does.

With fall comes colder weather and the drying air of heaters. Don't let your skin pay the price. Prevent flaking by using a shielding lotion.
