SELF HELP TECHNIQUES

self help techniques It Can Take A Long Time To Come Home Again

I have no memory of 'wishing upon a star', I couldn't stretch that far. My childhood wish was more basic, I wished for peace at home. Instead of peace, I sponged up the family turmoil and felt responsible to glue our home back together. Try as I might, our family shattered. Dad left home physically. Mom left emotionally. In spite of it all, they taught me I was not alone, that God would not be leaving me. I had nothing else to fall back on but faith... faith that my complaint would be heard.

Fast forward a few decades. With a baby and two toddlers in tow, what I feared the most, my life became. History repeated, in spite of my carefully orchestrated efforts to make my own home a Brady Bunch dream. My sponge and glue approach failed once more. Empty, bitter, and shattered inside, I decided God was not home either. With no other option, again I complained, "God, you promised peace in the storms." Those beliefs propelled a determination to "find peace and home" amidst the rubble. "There has to be a better way" played over again in my mind... spurring my determination. Graduate social work and psychotherapy training, the latest seminar, and self help books had to provide answers. I became an expert on the 'why' of misery.

Traditional talk therapy work fed the kids, but it was like 'pulling my client's eye teeth'. Change was not deep or permanent. I felt I was an 'imposter' therapist. (Even I could react from a four year old feeling decades later and was still searching for peace.) How could my clients who often had much more pain and were less motivated ever live free? I knew a lot about what was wrong but little about how to fix it. Once again, I was propelled by the belief, "There's got to be a better way"

self help techniquesThose low points became a springboard to heights I never dreamed. It took longer than I thought because it was closer than I believed. To the far ends of the earth I dragged my dissenting at first, behaviorally steeped, psychologist husband (Noble) to find answers beyond our traditional training. Touch for Health techniques balanced his chronic kidney symptoms that never responded to medical treatment. NLP and ESR found and deleted post trauma childhood memories that never responded to talk therapy. My fears no longer replayed unsolicited and uninvited.

I remember the day. With a collection of simple techniques available, I was unstoppable. When I unrooted the last major memory, I felt empty, void, quiet and still, even about family problems. I thought to myself, "I think I carried this balancing thing too far. I'm supposed to feel upset during difficulty. It feels like I don't care if I don't feel their" Then I heard a hunch, an impression, a strange silent voice say, "I thought you asked for peace in the midst of life's storms." God never left, I came home, at peace inside. I never left again, except a few times when I briefly forgot and tried to sponge or glue things together again. Those old feelings, now less intense, are gentle reminders from God that I slipped away. Peace at home is a choice. My part is to give life's problems up to God's care and stay home, at Present. You create your own Present by what you pay attention to.

For a dozen years, our clients participated as voluntary subjects to test combining various brain and body techniques to find the quickest way to delete sabotage and bring balance, to take the filters off the eyes, the plugs out of the ears, the chatter out of their heads, so they could see, hear, feel, and know truth. They learned that mental stillness speaks more in a day than a life time of mental noise.

Everyone who seeks finds. All of our clients except a small percent with personality disorders have enjoyed significant, lasting internal stillness within a few short hours. They learn skills to do maintenance on their own, no longer dependent on someone to make their life better. Without exception, clients contacted years later report they continue to grow and change. They return to us for a 'tweak' only when an event they have not experienced throws them off balance. Stress and mistakes become their welcome teachers, affording them the opportunity to learn and graduate to a higher level of peace.

Recent brain scans and research scientifically verifies that we are innately hard wired for God.

My wishes now stretch beyond the stars. It's so exciting to teach others the short way to peace by deleting what stops them from showing up for home.

self help techniques Gazing down the railroad track as a small boy in Pickneyville, Illinois, I knew there had to be a bigger, better world at the end of the tracks. More to life than repeating history. Most stayed there forever, saying and doing things the way it was always said and done, without a question. I knew then I was a bit odd, funny and different. I left home in my mind that day, long before I physically left my roots. The real leaving was not the thrill I had imagined. My sole box of possessions and I were left on the street corner of the university, bewildered, yet eager to know more. My early curiosity motivated me to major in finding life answers.

As a traditional psychologist, steeped in behavioral and traditional concepts, I understood and taught others the "why" of their problems. My experience varied from the mentally retarded to the mentally ill, from children to the aged. I widened my horizons becoming an expert in police psychology, neuropsychology and much in between. In all of these arenas, there was a common theme, people unconsciously repeat history - It's in the genes, deep in the unconscious cellular memory. Change takes more than understanding 'why'. The more I knew, the more I knew there had to be more.

Limited and frustrated, I left again. I left my roots and identity as a traditional psychologist... there had to be more. My impetuous wife and colleague, Elizabeth, and I teamed in a relentless pursuit, combing the earth for simple truths to heal our ourselves and to teach others. Our curiosity led us to explore how the brain is imprinted, how it communicates and affects the nervous system. Understanding the way the brain codes memories combined with the acupuncture meridian system, we found techniques to train the brain to delete the negative unconscious imprints within seconds. The brain and body re-establish communication and release the rooted habitual destructive emotions, behaviors and physical symptoms. Old sabotage patterns literally unravel. These simple processes we dubbed "Brain Body Balance" can be performed by even a small child, yet yield astonishing results - more than I ever dreamed.

I never went back to be a traditional psychologist. I recovered. My own life was set free, and it was easy to teach others. There really is more down those railroad tracks. Our part is to seek, and the answer comes.
