October 1st, 2009Lets make this Semester at School, Easier for our Children and Us
October 2nd, 2009Children are all off back to school and I’m sure there are a few people breathing a sign of relief at getting some peace and quiet. But along with getting their new clothes, pens and pencils and books, we also like to think of how we can help our children do better. The thing about school is the older they get the more important it becomes for them to learn and learn quickly.
We come in all sizes and levels of intelligence, but the one thing children all have in common is your brain works in the same way. Unfortunately traditional and even more so the new trendy methods of teaching take no account of this. My son was taught the exact same linear way to take notes and when he came to revising it was just reams of information that is hard to remember.
So I taught him to mind map, actually he took to it very easily as the method of connections is the same as the way the brain stores information. The brain connects facts to other facts; these connections are different for everyone, because we are all unique. By using mind mapping we can connect facts as they make sense to us, we then use it say to revise, the information makes sense, because the facts are connected right for us.
We start in the center of the page with the central core of the information we are note taking about, from this we extrapolate the facts, making connections. At a glance it makes far more sense when we read it back, helping us to retain the information better for exams later.
Once we got him software he was cutting his revising down dramatically and get better exam results, it worked and as you know most children do not work well doing lots of revision. By using a method that in effect connects facts and information for your child in the way they already associate them, makes it very easy to understand why it works so quickly and effectively. I found it saved a lot of problems, he got to have more time with his friends, we got better exam.

Mind Machines a Great Tool for Spiritual and Mental Self Development
October 3rd, 2009Mind machines are often known as light and sound machines and are brilliant tools for mental development. I first came across them about 10 years ago and I did on occasion use them as part of therapy sessions with my hypnosis patents. They have come on a great deal in recent years and can be used safely and effectively at home for both therapeutic, learning enhancement and just purely recreational. In this article I am going to try and give you a brief overview on the benefits and the states of consciousness you can easily reach with this tool.
The brain has four categories of brain wave that can be recorded or in the use of a mind machine accessed at will. They are often related to the level of engagement and focus of the person, from Beta to Delta state. We even access these states while asleep, a person sleep pattern is 90 minutes, REM or rapid eye movement is a well know state that we all access when actively dreaming, this is related to theta brainwaves.
Beta brainwaves are between 15 and 40 cycles per second and are the most engaged state of mind. If we were really focused on an activity, say public speaking, we would normally be in very high band of Beta state.
Alpha state is the next stage, if we go by lower cyclic rate, normally around 9 to 14 cycles per second. This is a state associated with spiritual or meditative state of mind, also incidentally with the hypnotic state. Obviously the ability to access this level of consciousness without years of training and with just a mind machine has a lot of advantages. Many people use mind machines to speed up their psychic or spiritual development, turning years of work into months.
We have the next stage down which is Theta, around 5 to 8 cycles per second. We have all accessed this stage when doing a repetitive action; we drift off into a daydream. This is used to access deeper spiritual realms, I have used this level for shamanic path working and had very good results.
Finally we have the Delta state, at the lowest cyclic state of 0.5 to 4 cycles per second. This level of brainwave activity would normally be associated with deep dreamless sleep. It has also been associated with the very deepest state of meditation, to learn this level of meditation would take many, many years of practice.
I am sure looking at the different states easily achievable by most people with a mind machine you can see what useful tools these are. I like the flexibility of the vast range of mind machines available, everything from already programmed basic entry level all the way up to professional machines you can even create your own personal programs for. As a tool for spiritual and mental development, they take some beating; I am still finding new techniques and uses for mine many years later. As a professional therapist I would not hesitate to add this to my tool chest, I am sure you can think of uses I have not even thought of for a mind machine.
