What difference does it matter?
Good article and I will share my thoughts on using hemi-sync binaural beats CDs to awaken your dormant side in another post.

Did I Attract THAT?
September 1, 2009 — SigOk, so do I believe that I attracted hurting my wrist? The answer is yes, and no.
Yes, I believe we attract everything that happens in our lives. So yes I attracted getting hurt. What I did not attract was the specifics. IOW, I didn’t attract that I would slip in the mud or that I would specifically hurt my wrist. What I attracted was a situation. That situation caused my getting hurt to fulfill the desire I was transmitting.
What desire could I have possibly had to cause me such pain? It took me quite some time to get the flash of intuition to give me the answer but it did come and when it did, the accident and the pain makes perfect sense. At least to me it does. And that is what is important. The messages you get from the universe are meant for you. So someone else that hurts themselves, may have attracted that for an entirely different reason.
By not being able to use my left arm or hand, I was (and am still) unable to finish working on clearing out the attic. That in turn, is delaying my putting the house on the market. Something I was expecting to do in June. It also prevented me from looking for yet another dead end job. The delays along with the lack of income are putting tremendous financial strain on me. THAT is the situation that I attracted.
Now, I can hear you say, “Wait a minute. You WANTED to be broke and desperate AND in pain?” Well, yes. Evidently. You see if I wasn’t in pain, I would have still kept on with clearing the attic. It had to be something severe enough to stop me from that but not severe enough to keep me off line totally. For while I couldn’t do much, I COULD read things online. Yes, I also read real books (I’m always reading 3 or 4 at any one time).
It was during this period that I found this video by Tony Robbins. And it really hit home for me. THIS was the message I had to hear. I needed to be “up against the wall” in order to move forward in attracting the life I am after. Here is the link to the video:
Hope it helps you as much as it did me.
Just a Short Note
August 31, 2009 — SigJust a short note by way of explanation on why I haven’t posted lately. I went on a camping trip. All was great. On the next to the last day, it started to rain. Really wasn’t much of a problem. It was off and on again so we went to the wildlife refuge and had a wonderful time. It took us several hours to go the 4.2 mile drive as we kept stopping for photos. We got out, visited the wooden duck blind, took lots more photos, and even took the 1.5-mile hike.
But, I guess we should have paid a bit more attention to the weather. We got back to camp and half way through cooking dinner, it was obvious that the rain was no longer on and off but rather it was coming down continuously. We didn’t bring the canopies or the tarps this trip since the forecast was for hot sunny days and warm nights.
I gave up and drove into the nearest town and bought tarps and another canopy but before I could return the sky just opened up and it was pouring. We got everything set up and since we DID manage to bring a propane heater, we started drying out stuff and feeling not so miserable anymore, we finished out our last full night. It continued to rain all night.
Next morning the rain was still coming down. Although we weren’t scheduled to leave until after lunch, we decided to go ahead and leave when we got up. The ground was saturated and muddy all around. And with all the tarps and extra guy wires everywhere, walking around trying to pack up was a bit of an obstacle course.
During this, I managed to step over and around the guy wires at the hump at the base of a huge tree but then lost my footing in the mud and fell. My wrist slammed into the ground and the pain was so incredible I was fighting nausea. No job, no insurance so no doctors. I got it together enough to drive the three hours home but did have to make stops to get out and walk around a bit.
For the next couple of weeks, I lived on pain pills. Ibuprophen mostly but I also had some codeine of my mom’s left over. Finally, I decided I needed a brace of some kind. We always kept everything from when the kids got hurt but the arm one we had was child sized and wouldn’t work. So I asked at my local drug store and a pharmacist helped me find a brace that would fit.
That helped a lot. And then yesterday afternoon, I realized that my wrist felt better. Today I have almost full range of motion again. It is still very weak and still hurts but it is SO much better than it was. It is my first day without wearing the brace since I bought it. This much typing is bothering it. It is the twisting that it doesn’t like. So I will have to end this here so I can give it a rest.

We are pure thought pure energy beings
August 4, 2009 — SigWe are beings of energy. Our flesh and blood bodies are not really us at all. And even the body does not really exist if you look at Quantum mechanics.
I think most people have come to accept that over the last few years. Deepka Chopra has combined ancient Vedic teachings with the science of Quantum physics to tell us that we are spirit beings having a human experience and not the other way around.
But long before I ever heard of Quantum physics, Deepak or Wayne Dyer, or Vedic teachings, I KNEW I was pure thought, pure energy. I saw it on TV one night. Really. Gene Roddenberry was so far ahead of his time it is just amazing.
I now find it funny that Kirk had a “cell phone” and had to talk to his ship while the Klingon commander had a “cell phone” with text capabilities. I think Gene was truly living in the cosmic consciousness.
It was this episode, Errand of Mercy, which ran in 1967 that made me realize THAT is who I am. You can watch the episode here: http://tinyurl.com/n6h9k2
I couldn’t get it to run in Chrome but it will run in most other browsers and it runs fine in IE7 and 8. If you don’t want to watch the whole show but just want to see the part that is about the pure energy, pure thought beings, watch the commercial and then move the bar up to around 41 minutes. You’ll have to watch another commercial and then it will start playing for you.
I tried to embed that scene but the code won’t work in wordpress for some reason.
Weird Theta Wave CD experiences
August 4, 2009 — SigI have seen a lot of things out there on binaural beats, brain entrainment, theta wave generators, subliminal, guided mediation and hypnosis CDs. In fact I own a bunch. Do they work? Some seem to, at least for me. But I wanted to tell you about the weird things that happened with two different ones.
The first weird thing that happened was with a Theta wave CD that I got a few years ago. The first time I played it I had nightmares. I don’t normally have nightmares and this was nothing like any I have ever had before or since.
I saw all sorts of horror things, one right after the other. It was like watching a very fast slide show. I do not watch horror movies or shows and I don’t read horror books. I just can’t take it. When a date took me to see Clockwork Orange, I got so sick I spent most of the movie hiding in the bathroom! There was NO WAY I was going back in there to see THAT. So the first very odd thing was that none of the images scared me. They were like Halloween props. I could tell that they weren’t in any way “real”. So maybe nightmare isn’t quite the right word. But it was VERY disturbing. Months went by before I got up enough courage to try that CD again. When I did retry it I did not have a repeat of macabre images.
I have used that CD several times since and it has caused me to just drift off into sleep. Which is what I at least, expect from a Theta wave CD. Theta waves are associated with sleep, so it seems to me that they should produce that effect. However, my next odd experience with a CD is with another Theta wave one.
This is a new CD set that I recently acquired. One CD is Alpha wave and one is Theta wave. Now what’s different about this set is that in addition to making my brain attune itself to those frequencies is that it is also supposed to help me manifest my desires. I think all of my other Theta wave ones just say meditation, relaxation or sleep. There is no other “purpose” associated with them.
Most of the Alpha wave and subliminal ones do have a “purpose”. Alpha wave ones can relax me to the point of drifting off to sleep but don’t necessarily. The Alpha wave one in this set will usually have me asleep before it is done. Not so with the Theta one. And yes, I did think that perhaps they mislabeled the CDs. But when I copied the tracks over to my mp3 player, the tracks themselves are also labeled Alpha and Theta. So they would have had to make a lot of mistakes for that to be the case.
But whatever this CD is that is labeled Theta, it produces some weird reactions in me. The first couple of times I tried it, as I started to relax, my leg would suddenly jump. Repeatily. It didn’t hurt or anything but I didn’t seem to have much control over it. The other leg would occasionally jump off the furniture also.
More disturbing than that though is a restlessness that comes over me when I listen to it. Definitely not relaxing. I haven’t had the leg jumps lately but the restless feeling is pretty intense. I don’t see any way this can be putting me into Theta. I am never deeply relaxed. Certainly never close to sleep.
I have given up listening to it. The feeling was sort of like being wired on too much coffee. Maybe it was supposed to be motivating me to take action so I can manifest my desires. Whatever it is, it sure doesn’t feel like Theta to me.
I would love to know if other people have tried these types of CDs and what sorts of experiences they have had with them.
