Mind
and matter are two parallel streams of development arising
from a common ground beyond both. There is an implicate
order and there is an infinite sea of energy, and this
unfolds to form space, time, and matter.

1. WHIRLING DIRVISH
ENTRANCE DANCE
Open
the door to the Right Brain in a
centuries old physical movement. Do not do this at your
office
unless your door is locked.
Do you remember as a child how you
would
spin around and then maybe fall to the ground? That is what the
whirling dervishes do to open the Right Brain.
The Mystic Gurdjieff used this at
his
Institute outside Paris to do the same thing. This is the
physical way to discover how your Right Brain prcesses information.
Music helps if this is available, but not absolutely necessary.
If you have a complex problem, you
ight
want to spend a few minutes whirling around, then lie down and spend
another then minutes noticing what is going on in your mental
computations.
Keep a notebook to record any
information. Especially the data that does not make logical
sense. You may find a metaphorical solution to your central
complex problem.
2.
ASKING YOUR BODY TO FIND THE ANSWER
Once you have
formulated the question, then find a quiet spot and ask the question to
each part of your body. Keep a pen and paper nearby to jot
down
the answers. Start with the right foot, then left, ten one
leg,
then the other leg, then one knee, etc. Write down the answers in a
column. When completed check the entire list for useful
insights.
This exercise breaks the hold on your decision making that your Left
Brain has acquired through the years.
3.
HYPNOGOGIC SOLUTION
Tonight, whn you are
half awake and half asleep, give a creative task to your Right Brain to
solve while you are sleeping. Remind your Right Brain to give
you
the answer by 9am the next morning and to give you a good night's sleep
now.
4.
TRY THE UNVARNISHED TRUTH
As long as the unvarnished truth is not endangering anyone else, use
it.
5.
FIRST LOVE ENERGY
If you are feeling
slightly under the weather, just say out loud, "think about my First
Love" then take a moment to do so .If you have any negative memories
around this thought, edit them out. Only positive memories
are
allowed. Notice the chemical change in your body as positve
thoughts take over.
6.
TELL A SECRET
Tell someone you trust a
secret that you have been reluctant for anyone else to know. Disclosure
of a secret raises the energy level of trust between you and you will
feel your own energetic response as the energy you have been using to
hide this is released. How about a fear you once had, but no
longer have? Do not tell a secret that will harm you or anyone if it is
known. Here is a safe example of an old fear that has lots of
psychological implications. "When we studied Pompeii in
scholl, I
used to dream about volcanic eruptions. There would be hot
lava
creep9ing up to my feet. What do you think abut this?"
7.
CREATE A PLEASURE DAY FOR SOMEONE YOU LOVE
Tell the other in
advance that you want to create a perfect day for them. Ask
for
their imput as to what they want on this day. Get plenty of
details then you embellish these.
Noticehow you feel as you show
someone hoe much you care. See that you enjoy the day as
well.
8.
HEART INFORMATION
When you have to make
a decision during your day, check out the information from you heart
before voicing the decision. Heart information is often
different
than Left Brain logical data. Use both for balancing the Left
and
Right Brains.
9.
USE DRAWINGS TO SET YOUR OUTCOME EACH MORNING
The Right Brain loves
images. Images trigger the Right Brain. What is interesting
about
how the brain works is that if it knows what you want, it will search
all available data to code what will help you gain your goal. So if you
give the Right Brain an image of what you want, the Right Brain's
natural processing will become your best assistant. Buy a set
of
pastels and a drawing tablet. Keep them in a drawer so no one
asks questions. Each morning draw an image that signifies to
you
what you hope to accomplish that day. You will be amazed at the
results.
10.
TEACH ONE OF THESE TO SOMEONE ELSE
When you teach a
mental strategy to someone else, you learn a lot. Notice how
your
comprehension and understanding of a concept deepens as you transfer
it. Enjoy your teaching role .
