Is The Exfuze Scam Legit Or Not Legit?

By Randy Disert

Many of us want to make more money or just start making money period. When we see companies claiming that they can help us do this by buying and selling their products, we tend to think that it is a scam. Many people right now are debating the Exfuze scam. So is it really a scam or can you make money legitimately with Exfuze?

Exfuze is a business that produces specialty juices. The company says that these juice drinks are filled with super fruits and herbs that are very good for your health. The juices are meant to contain nutrients that are vital to being healthy and happy.

Much of the buzz around Exfuze right now is just a discussion about the legitimacy of the company. It is hard for people to believe that money can be made by selling juice and only juice. However, Exfuze does not look like a scam.

The Exfuze business model is based on a model that has been around for many years. They are an MLM business. The MLM is short for multi-level marketing. What this means is that they depend on normal people signing up with them as distributors. These people will then market and sell their products to other people.

If you think back to when knife salesmen and vacuum salesmen used to come to your door to sell their stuff, you will quickly realize that Exfuze is a similar business. Those people bought the products upfront from the main company and then decided to go out to sell them to others. This is what Exfuze asks you to do, though not necessarily from door to door.

Lots of people become a part of companies, such as Exfuze, because they can be their own boss. They decide when they go to work and how long for. They also decide where they go and have some ability to control the amount of cash that they make. You even have the option to lead your own employees if you wish.

There is more than one way to make money with Exfuze. The main way is by keeping the profits from the sales you make. However, bonuses are given to people who sell large amounts of the products as well as for selling to certain people, such as preferred customers. Additional money can be made by convincing others to distribute Exfuze too.

It is possible to make some cash with Exfuze. It certainly is not a scam, but do expect to work very hard in order to make a living with them.

Scientifically Proven Steps For Weight Loss With A Fast Diet

By Charlie Donovan

Many so-called experts in or involved in the health industry are constantly coming with new and innovative ways to sell you on their new fast diet program or rapid weight loss pills. Before you buy into any of their claims be sure to do your diligence and find out if it's just another fad diet or a genuine, scientifically proven, healthy way to help you on your weight loss journey.

The problem with many of these so-called "solutions" is that they aren't really solutions to the real problem people are facing in their desire for quick weight loss.

Buying into what they're selling is the main objective, regardless of whether it truly works or not for the average person. You don't want or need to take a barrage of supplements, buy special equipment, or spend 4 hours in front of your television every day watching someone jump around.

If losing weight fast or otherwise is a problem that you are seeking a solution to, then you've probably seen good example of this on afternoon or late night infomercials.

Research has proven that there are 5 simple and proven principles that, if followed, will force your body to shed unwanted pounds and provide the quickest way to lose weight for anyone who adopts these principles as a lifestyle habit. For most, they are probably unexpected solutions to the common dilemma of fast weight loss, but sometimes it's better to follow the truth instead of the masses.

Losing 10% of your body fat weight in 30 days is very possible by implementing these fundamentals into your life. Moreover, if implemented and sustained, you will continue to lose fat like this every month...and keep it off.

If you sat down and really thought about it, what kind of nonsense have you been taught about losing weight from the media? LOTS! And the quicker you forget about that stuff, and the sooner you start following sound advice, the sooner you will be well into your fat loss journey.

When you think of a fast diet what do you think of? Maybe eating lettuce and drinking water for a week straight? How about all protein and no carbs? Just grapefruits or cabbage soup? You don't, and in fact you SHOULDN'T, starve yourself and take part in all that nonsense if you want to lose weight quickly.

Your goal is to remove fat from your body, not just weight, because fat weighs much less than lead body mass, so if you focus on removing fat, then you will look and feel better, even though you won't look as big. You don't even have to spend countless hours working out, however adding even a moderate amount of exercise of any kind is a great compliment to a healthy lifestyle and will always aid in the process of losing weight. Simple adjustments are sometimes all it takes to condition your body to be a fat burning machine 24/7 and provide you with an energy level you may not have experienced for a while.

For example, did you know that 100% pure fruit juices basically turn to sugars in your body and your body then stores that as fat quickly? What about 'whole wheat' and sometimes even other 'whole grain' products like pastas, crackers, muffins, etc.? Don't be fooled! There are certain 'whole grains' that are conducive to quick weight loss and others that are not. Whole wheat falls in the latter.

And fat? Don't always go for the fat free stuff. Why? Because if you read the nutritional label on any of this stuff you'll see that one of, if not THE first ingredients is sugar. The secret to a fast diet is really a proper diet and this starts with the proper intake of sugars, which is not just found in candies and desserts.

This doesn't mean eliminate fruits and breads from your diet, but limit the juices or the consumption of them as a stand-alone, find other whole grain breads like sprouted grains or quinoa, among many others.

Don't get caught up in what the media says about fat intake. Fat is actually good for you and will help you lose weight, if you consume the right kinds. Great sources of "good fat" are grape seed oil, butter (the real kind), raw nuts, and avocados. Fats you want to avoid are all hydrogenated oils, especially canola, and imitation butters.

Avoid artificial sweeteners as often as possible. As a general rule of thumb, if you have to choose between artificial or plain sugar, choose the sugar. But whenever possible, always choose a pure can sugar or natural honey as a means of sweetening something up.

Whole foods are always your best choice, meaning foods that have one ingredient. Why? Because there is no processing done with these foods. Fresh meats, all vegetables, fruits, nuts, etc.

So, here are the 5 principles you need to know for the best fast diet and weight loss strategies:

1. Understand the types of food that will burn fat.

2. Understand the types of food that will NOT burn fat.

3. Get the foods that aid in burning fat.

4. Consume the food you buy to help you burn fat.

5. Consume the food at the right times to maintain the burning of fat.

Many programs and solutions are available today to help you lose weight quickly, but there's only one real solution to a fast diet, and that's eating the right foods at the right times and in the right quantities that really burn fat. Moreover, it's assembling all 5 of these guidelines together in a way that makes total sense so they will work for you. Healthy, quick weight loss is possible.

The History Of Reno's Mapes Hotel

By Ross Everett

On January 31, 2000, the historic Mapes Hotel in Reno was imploded by 75 pounds of explosives tucked into the art-deco structures support columns. The destruction of the Mapes put an end to years of efforts to preserve the building via lawsuits, redevelopment proposals, and grass roots action. The National Trust for Historic Preservation took up the cause of the Mapes, and challenged the destruction in a suit that eventually reached the Nevada Supreme Court.

While the logic and necessity of demolishing the Mapes is very questionable, one thing that is certain is that the hotel was an important part of Northern Nevada history. The Mapes opened in'47 and with it ushered in a new era for casino gambling and the state of Nevada. Despite some historical revisionism that suggests that the modern era began in Las Vegas with Bugsy Siegel's famed Flamingo, the Mapes was actually the first building in America to have a hotel, casino and live entertainment under the same roof. The Mapes attracted countless celebrities who'd make it their home when business brought them to Northern Nevada--this included movie stars like Clark Gable, TV stars like the cast of 'Bonanza' and political power brokers like infamous anti-Communist crusader Joseph McCarthy.

During the 'Rat Pack' era of the 50's and 60's it became along with the Cal-Neva Lodge in Lake Tahoe the place to be seen in Northern Nevada. The 11th floor, window walled Sky Room Lounge hosted performances by a roster of entertainment legends including Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr., Dean Martin, Louis Prima, Keely Smith, Milton Berle and Mae West. Downtown Reno struggled during the'60's and 70's but the Mapes continued to prosper. The hotel finally closed in'82, due to financial problems experienced by the Mapes Family brought about by their other Northern Nevada casino holdings.

Reno never experienced the massive growth that occurred in Las Vegas and southern Nevada, and for that reason the destruction of the Mapes is more open to debate than the hotel demolitions to the south. Even the demolition of The Sands--perhaps the most historically significant casino in the state--is hard to argue against given the inability of such a small property to compete in the current Las Vegas marketplace and in light of the value of the mid-strip real estate. The old properties may have historic value to pop culture historians, but their survival doesn't make economic sense. They're simply 'analog players in a digital world'.

This is not the case in Reno, where land and buildings for development in virtually every casino area are abundant. The official reason that the Mapes had to come down was that the city needed the land--which sits along the banks of the Truckee River--to expand its riverside district of art galleries, restaurants and shops. The revitalization of downtown Reno is definitely needed and a legitimate goal, but at the same time it is hard to think that the Mapes was a barrier to this. Indeed, a number of proposals for redevelopment including office space, artists lofts and upscale senior housing would have probably served to enhance the livability of the downtown area. For whatever reason, the City Redevelopment Authority wouldn't approve any of the proposals and the fate of the Mapes was sealed.

The role of the City Redevelopment Authority was questioned throughout the process. Overlooking the Truckee River, the hotel was on a prime location between the downtown casino area and the riverfront district. Back in'96, the city of Reno purchased the hotel and began entertaining proposals for renovation and redevelopment. A number of sound financial proposals were presented that would preserve the integrity of the structure including condominiums, office space, and perhaps most viable, upscale senior apartments. Oddly, all of these proposals were turned down by the citys Redevelopment Agency which eventually led to the demolition of the structure.

After the demolition of The Mapes Hotel, the lot remained vacant for almost a year until a temporary ice skating rink was constructed in the winter of 2001. The site now houses a permanent ice skating rink which, while not a bad use for the land, brings into question the insistence by the City Redevelopment Agency that none of the proposals to preserve the building were viable. Clearly, they had no specific plan or even general idea of what to do with the land but for some reason wanted to see the hotel come down. This has led to all manner of speculation, ranging from financial self interest to a rumor that the structure was 'haunted' and needed to be destroyed to forestall future paranormal activity in Washoe County. Whatever the reason, the city of Reno lost a valuable landmark of a more civilized era.

Is Astral Projection Something You Should Experiment With?

By Benjamin Parry

Most people will have heard at some point in time in their lives the term astral projection. It is possible they may have heard it there are a number of books, movies and people who have studied or follow a new age path. However, there are only a small number of people that understand that astral projection is both real and something that anyone and everyone can do. In fact, many people have actually experienced at least one astral projection in their lives and while some may be aware of this experience, many people are not.

In order to determine if you have had an astral projection experience or to begin learning to astral project it is important to understand what astral projection is. Simply put astral projection is when your spirit body leaves your physical body. This is something that happens naturally at night when you are asleep, but it is possible for you to do it consciously and control the journey of your spirit body.

Many children actually astral project without being aware of what they are doing. It happens usually when the body is relaxed or even when they are asleep. Time and distance do not mean anything when talking about astral projection. The astral body can travel without these considerations.

You may be asking at this point what is meant by the astral body? The meaning of the term astral body is the body's invisible duplicate, also called the ethereal body. It is where all of our wishes and feelings are stored in our body. I bet you are wondering how the astral body can leave and then also return to the physical body? There is this silver cord that connects the physical body with the astral body.

The astral body is immediately connected to the physical body upon entering it with this silver cord, this cord cannot ever be broken except through death. This cord actually protects the physical body from losing the astral body.

Where is it exactly that we go when astral projecting? You visit the astral plane which is to the physical universe as your astral body is to your physical body. There is no universal agreement among the experts about exactly how the astral plane is structured but most agree that the astral plane is an alternate reality which vibrates at a different rate than our own, just slightly out of sync with the universe we inhabit physically and that there are many different levels to the astral plane..

After learning this information, it is only natural to start to wonder if there are any dangers to astral project. The answer is not as simple as a straightforward yes or no. While astral projection is something that everyone is capable of doing and that the astral body is attached to the physical body by a tie that can only be broken by death there is still a need to remain conscience of what is going on while astral projecting and be in a state to maintain that frame of mind.

The greatest danger when astral projecting comes with the mind is not carefully prepared or under the influence of thought and perception, altering substances such as drugs or alcohol. There are a number of levels to the astral plane. The lower levels are not considered places to visit and are often considered to be unsafe. It is these levels that are easiest to access when under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

It is vital that you understand where you desire going and exactly what you are participating in. You need to strive on doing astral projection using your conscious mind. Stay in total control as far as what task that the astral body is performing. Your thoughts and thinking processes are what keeps you in this kind of control.

You can learn astral projection with relative ease and in little time if you prepare yourself. You could choose to take lessons with astral projection professionals who can teach you some techniques. Alternately, you could do as most people do and learn on your own.

You can find a lot of material online to help you improve your astral projection abilities. Astral projection hypnosis recordings are especially useful. These recordings help you to reach the meditative state where astral projection happens the most readily. Many people consider these to be more helpful than a session with a professional since they can be played on repeat until youre relaxed and your subconscious mind responds to the recorded messages.

Something called binaural beats, a new audio recording technique have made it possible for many people to astral project. Two frequencies which are just slightly different are listened to, one in each year. The result is that your brainwaves tune to the proper frequency for astral projecting.

If you are unable to astral project at first, do not be concerned. It is something that requires practice to be able to do. It is important to remember that this is not actually an acquired skill but something that is already known to each person. They simply need to remember how to astral project and then to practice in order to obtain a level of proficiency.

Do you still not totally believe this is for real? Well have you ever had dreams that you were flying or had the sensation of falling? The flying was your astral body actually traveling through the various astral planes. The sensation of falling is the astral body coming back to the physical body after it traveling around. Astral projection really exists! Take time to tune your natural abilities and you will see that anyone has the abilities to perform this and reap the benefits from it.

Unions And Unemployment Compensation Law

By Hannah Wilson

Unemployment compensation law pertains to the existence of an adequate insurance coverage that will serve to assist a person while he or she is in the process of looking for new employment. This is to ensure that any unemployed person will have the means of surviving financially even in the midst of employment difficulty. It is important to be familiar with the elements that are needed for such compensation to be granted and so the article will be providing an overview of the essential components of the ruling.

It is possible to gain some form of financial assistance when a person is eligible based on the ruling under the compensation law for unemployment. Unemployment benefits are meant to assist the previously employed and so every person hoping to get financial support needs to prove that he or she has reached a significant amount of earnings before being out of work. Unemployment benefits will only be given to those who were in a regular job for a certain amount of time before being unemployed.

It will take a year's employment before an unemployed worker is to be considered for financial support under any kind of unemployment compensation law. One other concern before a financial grant is given to an unemployed worker pertains to his or her attitude towards working once again, where he or she would be able and willing to do so. Some information pertaining to the disapproval of claims will be provided as the article progresses.

It is a good decision to go for the option of applying for an unemployment claim at the local agencies. A person should not forget that relevant personal documents need to be filed as well when a compensation claim is in order. Since releasing support checks takes some time to accomplish, people need not hesitate to apply for aid as soon as they see fit.

According to the unemployment compensation law there are numerous factors that can contribute to the eligibility of a claimant. The person needs to assure the review board that he or she did not quit without any just reasons and the person should not also have been fired by having an involvement in strikes and burglaries. Sad to say there is no exclusion for people who are sick wherein the inability to work will definitely disqualify the applicant.

The compensation law also excludes people who have their own businesses and those who work as freelancers. But what about those people who believe they have good reasons for quitting their previously held positions? These good cause could be leaving a job due to unsafe working conditions, harassment, or refusing to do anything illegal.

When a spouse is to work for a company out of the state his or her spouse can seek and be granted for compensation benefits. Taking care of ill family members as well as the military drafting are both good reasons why a person may have quit his or her job. There is a great need for local information pertaining to the compensation law to be distributed to the workers as these may differ from place to place.

Provided are reasons that can easily disqualify applicants from being granted unemployment compensation law benefits. Misconducts including excessive absences and tardiness as well as frequent insubordination can easily make a person ineligible for benefits. The use of drugs and alcohol in the workplace automatically makes a person ineligible for financial support.

An unemployed worker can get as much as six months worth of compensation under the compensation law. Some other elements of the compensation agreement are that the person should be willing to work and is actively looking for work while settlements are being given to him or her. Unemployment compensation is a privilege to encourage people to look for work and not simply slack off.

Understand All Your Options Before Choosing A Movie Download Site

By Dorothy Clements

Movie Downloads are one of the things that has been gaining popularity over the years. People like the option of only having to download a movie onto their computer and then they are ready to go. The person does not have to worry about returning the movies nor do they have to worry about any kinds of late fees, since they own the movie.

One thing that has been big with people is burning dvd's. The negative side of this has to do with the fact that it is illegal to do. There is a risk that the person takes when they do things as this illegally.

Learning how to download movies is something that is not that difficult, it is actually quite easy. When someone gets a movie download subscription, it tends to make the process easier. A lot of these subscription sites tend to give you the information that you need in order to allow you to download the movies.

Illegally downloading movies is not a good idea, due to the amount of trouble that you can get into for doing such a thing. It is always a better idea to stick to the legal movie downloads, since you do not have to worry about getting into trouble for doing so.

Streaming is one thing people do in some cases. What this involves is watching movies online rather than downloading any movies on the computer. If you do want to download movies, then movie download software can make the process quicker than regular downloading.

Another option when it comes to Movie Downloads, is divx downloads. These are HD style downloads, so they are better quality than a lot of the other downloads.

When you buy online movies, you are usually paying a lower price than it you were to go to the store. Also things like rentals in some cases are accessed at a much lower rate. The reason for this has to do with how a lot of them allow you to stream rentals, while getting other rentals at a much lower rate.

Buying or renting online, usually gives people access to many more choices than what is usually available at a rental store or regular department store. Additionally, they are usually provided a better rate as well.

Many people like the ability to access movies without having to leave the comfort of the home. Now with the busy lives that people live, this is a great option to have. This way the person has the option to save money, while they are saving time as well.

So, if you did not know this already, now you know that you no longer have to leave home in order to rent or buy a movie. Basically all that it involves is access to the internet and usually a credit card.

The True Story Of The Ali/Inoki Fight

By Ross Everett

While mixed martial arts fighting has only recently become popular in the United States, contests between fighters of different martial arts disciplines have taken place in Japan for many years. They weren't called "mixed martial arts" until recently, but they were definitely an embryonic form of the now booming sport. Many of the most famous events of this type took place in Japan during the'70's involving pro wrestling legend Antonio Inoki.

Inoki would often face other martial artists in fights that are widely accepted to have been "worked" (having a predetermined outcome) in the same manner as professional wrestling matches. While Inoki faced a number of karate, judo and boxing champions his most famous match was certainly his fight against world heavyweight boxing champion Muhammad Ali.

There are differing accounts of how the best heavyweight boxer in history found himself in a ring in Tokyo's Budokan Arena against a pro wrestler. One thing is certain--it was viewed as an easy payday for Ali, who'd lost a good chunk of his prime earning years to his controversial stance over the Vietnam war. That's what got him there in the first place, and that's what kept him there after the two sides began squabbling over the rules and the outcome of the fight. Some suggest that it was supposed to be a "fair fight" going in and once Ali saw Inoki spar he insisted on rules changes to tilt the fight in his favor. Another more likely version of the story suggests that Ali's handlers knew that the fight was supposed to be a "work" all along. They made the deal with Inoki's people based on this fact, and were all on board as to the outcome of the match and how it would "finish". The "original" plan was to have Inoki win in a controversial manner that would keep his undefeated streak in "MMA" matches intact while allowing Ali to "save face. The only person who wasn't aware of the game plan, however, was Ali himself. When informed that he was supposed to "take a dive", even in a convoluted fashion, Ali refused. No agreement was reached between the two camps and at the last minute a legit fight transpired. The promoters were left with a sold out Budokan, a worldwide PPV audience and two fighters who despite every effort to the contrary would actually have to fight each other.

By the time the fight began, Ali's handlers had obtained a ridiculously one sided set of rules that prohibited Inkoi from using a closed fist, striking Ali in the head at all, using any chokes or submissions or even trying to take the fight to the ground. Were it not for the huge amount of money he'd be leaving on the table, Inoki would have been justified in not fighting at all under these highly restrictive and one-sided conditions.

The result was an absolutely horrible fight. Neither man showed much interest in engaging the other, with Inoki spending most of the time on the ground doing what he could under the one sided rules. Inoki threw kicks at Ali's legs, Ali threw an occasional jab and tried to protect himself from his opponent's leg strikes. The fight ended a 74-74 draw, with the real losers being the fans.

The fight was officiated by former pro wrestler "Judo" Gene Labell, a legendary tough guy considered at the time to be the 'baddest man on the planet'. He could have easily beaten up both men, possibly at the same time. That might have provided some much needed entertainment to liven up the tedious charade masquerading as a fight.

In the aftermath of the fight, Inoki's popularity was greater than ever--in a perverse way he was something of a hero due to his trying to fight despite the rules being stacked so soundly against him. He remained one of the country's most popular professional wrestlers and even enjoyed a career in Japan's parliament. Without missing a beat, he quickly resumed his series of fights against other martial artists who were apparently all more comfortable with the "worked" environment of pro wrestling. Among his "victims" was none other than Leon Spinks, presumably serving as some sort of vindication for his draw with Ali. The popularity of these matches led to a number of promotions that were essentially hybrids of martial arts and pro wrestling, and these led to the big Japanese MMA promotions of today.

The Power Of Chakra Sound During Chakra Meditation

By Nisal Karuiyaratna

In Sanskrit, chakra means a spinning wheel or vortex. There is another meaning to chakra, which indicates the seven chakras of the human body that relate to the seven gland systems of the body. These chakras are centers of spinning energy with the first one on the base of the spine and the seventh one at the crown.

As the chakra is a center of spinning energy and something that moves, it causes vibrations. These vibrations cause sound and this is the reason why there is vibration in different parts of the body through chakra sounds of varying frequencies.

There are not only seven independent chakra sounds for the seven chakras but also seven colors associated with the different chakras. These colors also vibrate at different frequencies where both the chakra sound and color helps in the restoration of balance in the chakras. This in turn helps in the restoring of health.

Sound healing using chakra sounds is easy to do; all that is needed is you and your voice to make you feel clearer, better and calmer within minutes. All chakra sounds should be soft and gentle, for no longer than five minutes each.

1. The first chakra sound is UH, the deepest sound possible. This chakra sound has to be done with eyes closed and with attention on the spine base chakra, the base chakra. When chanting the chakra sound, you have to be aware of the sound resonance found in the chakra location and not from the throat. This chakra sound is associated with the color red and has to be chanted for one or two minutes, and not longer than five minutes.

2. The next chakra sound has to come from the second chakra found three inches below the naval. You have to chant OOO while complimenting the chakra sound with orange. You have to chant with eyes closed to experience the balancing of the chakra with other chakras for one or two minutes.

3. The third chakra sound "OH has to come from the navel chakra, found at the navel area. The color for complimenting visualization here is yellow. This chakra sound has to start very softly and gently, but higher than the last sound.

4. AH is the sound people cry out when in love, and is also the chakra sound for the heart chakra. This chakra is located in the middle of the chest, and is related to love. It is associated with the color green and has to be started with a soft and gentle sound that has a higher pitch than the previous chakra sound.

5. EYE is the chakra sound for the throat chakra that can be complimented with blue. This chakra sound too has to be higher in pitch than the previous sounds.

6. In between the forehead and slightly above the two eyes is the chakra sound belonging to the third eye. This chakra sound is AYE and is complimented with indigo color. This chakra sound starts with a soft and gentle tone which is however of a higher pitch than the previous sounds.

7. The crown chakra, found at the top of the head, demands the highest sound you can make. This chakra sound is EEE and is complemented with purple and starts by making the highest EEE sound possible. Like other chakra sounds, this chakra sound also starts soft and gentle.

The eyes have to be closed when chanting all chakra sounds with attention concentrated on the different chakras. This focus on the chakra starts projecting the chakra sound from the chakra. And the resonance from the sound chakras helps in the balance and alignment of the each chakra with other chakras.

It is better if you relax or meditate after this exercise as you may feel light headed. This should be done so that you can realize the benefits of the chakra sounds better.

How To Astral Project - A New Understanding

By John B Keaple

Each person has the natural ability to astral project. Many people do it and are not even aware of the fact that they do. The key is to consciously astral project, and control where your astral body is going and what it is doing.

If you are interested in astral projecting, you probably already know what your astral body is and about the astral plane. Read on to find a few different methods that will help you learn to astral project. Since astral projecting is such a personal experience, it is important for you to find techniques that suit you best.

The first one is fairly easy for most people. You want to do this when you are in bed and just about ready to go to sleep. This technique involves five simple steps.

*The first thing you want to do is get completely relaxed. You can't astral project unless you achieve a deep level of relaxation. Lie down in bed, and begin with your toes. Tense them up for a few moments, then consciously relax every muscle. Do the same thing to every muscle, working your way up your body until you finish with your head and face. This may feel unfamiliar at first, but you will soon get used to this method of relaxation. Your body may feel rather heavy. This is perfectly normal and nothing to worry about.

*Next, take deeper, slower breaths. Using a common meditation technique works for some people. Breathe in deeply, paying close attention to how it feels for the air to come into your lungs and push against your diaphragm. Exhale slowly, completely emptying your lungs. Feel how the air leaves your body as you relax. Try to stay awake through all this. What may help is to focus on the center of your forehead, in the region of the third eye.

*Step three is where you want to pay attention to how your body feels, it should feel very heavy. When you think about the way your body feels, you should think of it as a lump of clay and not very easy to move. It is time now to think of your astral body, as you think of your astral body you are thinking about how light it feels. Your astral body is weightless, it is free. Close your eyes and see your astral self, you are like bubbles or feathers that are floating away in the breeze. The physical body may be heavy but your astral body is so weightless.

*Now is when many people who use this technique report that they are able to see the dark room then are in even though their eyes are closed. The room seems to be cloaked in a purple light. If you are able to get to this step then you need to focus your attention on the ceiling light.

*For the fifth step of this method, imagine that you are pulling the light on the ceiling toward you. This action may make you feel like you're floating. Remember to stay conscious! The floating feeling should continue, and if you look down, you may see your physical body asleep on the bed below.

Wow you just had a successful astral projection session! Now you can begin astral traveling. If this method did not work well for you, try out the next one.

This method is called gazing. Try this at bedtime. You need something to focus on, such as a picture, the moon, a crystal, or some other object.

Now that you have your object, place it so you can see it easily when you are lying in bed. Focus on this object. As you continue to stare at it, you should feel your eyes getting heavy. Even though they get heavy, keep staring at the object. While your eyes will eventually close, you should still be able to see the object. As you continue to stare, you may feel like you want to sit up or even stand. As this happens, do not be surprised if you still see your physical body lying on the bed, asleep.

Do not lose heart if neither of these techniques works the first time or even the second. Try them a third time, if they still dont work, there are other techniques that you can use. It is important that you dont get frustrated, which will increase anxiety and be counter productive in promoting relaxation.

It is important that you realize that tools and techniques aren't really holding you back. The main obstacle to successful astral traveling is your own subconscious mind. You may need to give your subconscious mind reassurances that it is okay for your astral body to separate from your physical body for a while. Affirmations are an excellent way to send this message. Once your subconscious mind accepts this message, astral projecting will be a piece of cake!

There are a few short cuts you may try to help you achieve astral projection quickly. If you don't use them, it may take a long time to create the proper state of mind for it to happen. If you do use them, you may find yourself successfully astral projecting after your very first try.

Hypnosis may help you achieve a relaxed state much more quickly. If you use a quality guided hypnosis session, it can also help explain how to astral project so you don't have to worry about remembering what to do next. This lets you just follow the session and relax, increasing your chances of having a successful astral projection.

There is also a sound technology that is being developed called "binaural beats." In this technology, different sound frequencies are played in each ear. This sends signals to your brain that quickly relaxes you into a deep meditative state, increasing the likelihood of a successful astral projection.

The most important thing to remember is that astral projecting is not as hard as many people think it is. You were born with this natural ability! The tools and methods outlined here are just ways to help you develop this talent to its fullest capacity.

Taking Your Company Public: Anatomy of an S-1: A Must Read If You're Going Public

By James Scott

Your company is growing. Now you are ready to start raising serious capital and you here the public fund raising markets. Here are the basics of your S-1 filing. Know the lingo before you hire a consultant. Because companies must adhere strictly to SEC regulations, initial prospectuses are similar in their organization. Each S-1 generally consists of the following sections:

Front Section -- An S-1 contains a small amount of information not available in a prospectus. In this first section, you can quickly find the issuing company's phone number and get a vague sense of the future offering price.

Cover/Inside Cover -- The prospectus cover outlines the general terms of the offering, including names of the underwriters, number of shares offered, and pricing information. The actual share price is absent from a prospectus until the day of the offering.

Prospectus Summary -- Here you will find a brief synopsis of the company's business and history, a modest discussion of the change in capitalization to occur as a result of the offering, and a useful summary of financial information covering the last five years, if available. If you are screening prospectuses for investment ideas, start here.

Risk Factors -- After you have read a few prospectuses, you will become familiar with the "usual suspects" in this section, including "Possible Volatility of Stock," "Limited History of operations," "Dilution," and "Dependence on Key Personnel." Nevertheless, this section is a worthwhile read to be sure that you understand the challenges facing the company's management. The discussion of competition can be sobering, but it can also provide a means to compare the value of the issuer against the financial performance and market valuation of its competitors.

Taking your company public should be an exciting and revitalizing time. Don't take unnecessary risks, hire a consulting firm who can streamline this process and deliver the results you'll need for success!

Beatify Your Kitchen with a Butcherblock Countertop

By Debra Glow

Despite having a lot of competitions without a doubt, the butcherblock countertops are still popular kitchen fixtures. Apparently, natural wood is considered timeless and even with modernization, is still continues to exist.

A lot of people opt to change their stone countertops to wood ones when they make renovations. This is actually easy because the wood will match any style. They are also available in a large number of wood colors so you are sure to find one that matches either your cabinets or floors.

Additionally, you can finish the countertops with any color stain that you desire.

However, getting rid of these odors is not that difficult because you can also use lemon juice and let it stand for about fifteen minutes until the countertop absorbs it.

Wood countertops are certainly a beautiful selection and provide a visual appeal to your kitchen.

Cosmic Ordering - What The Service Can Do For You

By Janet Lumb

More and more people are starting to think about the possibility of being able to order just about anything that is desired from the universe and actually receiving it. It is no surprise that people are looking closely at cosmic ordering since it has received a great deal of publicity.

Now that a number of celebrities are vouching for cosmic ordering, everyone is ready to jump on this bandwagon. One question is still on my peoples minds though, what are the chances that an average person would have success?

The simple fact is that this method can work for anybody. If you have tried cosmic ordering in the past, but didn't have any success, you should look a little deeper. There is a very good chance that your subconscious mind was standing in your way.

Everybody has the right to use the cosmic ordering service, giving everybody a chance to receive what they really want. Of course many individuals will be quick to point out that they never asked to have financial problems or health issues and of course, they are correct.

The problem does not lie with the cosmic ordering service, but with the way that the desires are channeled. Try not to say things like, 'I really don't want to become ill'. This is an example of a negative way of seeking what you want.

You should try to ask for your desires using a more positive approach. Rather than stating what it is that you don't want, simply ask for what you do want. For example, you could say something like, 'I'm so darn healthy it's not a surprise that I never fall ill'.

This is one area that many fail when the try to make affirmations or try to think positive. Instead of seeing themselves as they could be, they see themselves as they are. By doing this they are affirming their station in life but should be affirming the place that they should be and believing that they are receiving their cosmic order.

When often carry the belief systems of others with us throughout our lives. If you were told as a child that you were fat, skinny, stupid or anything negative, these comments likely changed the belief that you have for yourself.

If we lived in a perfect world, every child would be given the support and knowledge to understand that they deserve everything that they desire. Instead we teach our children that it is wrong to want too many things in this life. We are conditioned to believe that we don't deserve to receive the things we want unless we work really hard for them, and even then we should have a special reason for receiving the reward.

Another thing we need to stop doing is believing that we should count our blessing. There is no reason why we should settle for next to nothing in our lifetime. There are plenty of riches in the universe, enough for everyone. There is so much in fact that they could stretch to the edge of infinity.

By believing that you would have to covet the riches of other people in order to have what you want, you are reinforcing that you have less than others. Instead, you should be happy for other people that have riches and believe that there truly is plenty of wealth to go around. You must believe that you can have what you want without taking it from others.

You might be wonder if the power of positive thinking can really make a difference. The answer is a resounding YES. It makes a huge difference in our lives. There have been scientific studies that have proven that the human brains is capable of creating waves of energy that are able to move the smallest particle known to man, a quirk.

The hardest part of the whole process of cosmic ordering is being able to fully free ourselves of the negative beliefs that lie in our subconscious mind. The negative beliefs are very likely embedded firmly into our memories, but they must be cleared away. In order to do this you may need to use every tool that is available.

Have no fear; there are some very powerful aids at our disposal. Self hypnosis and subliminal suggestion are two very powerful tools that are effective at targeting our subconscious minds. By gaining access to our subconscious mind, we can begin to systematically wipe away the negative thoughts that are preventing us from benefiting from the cosmic ordering service.

You are able to control your own future but you need to believe this beyond a shadow of a doubt. By using the tools that are available you can clear the blockages in your subconscious mind and order all the things you desire for the cosmic ordering service.

Event Photography Money Making Ideas

By Peter Wong

If you focus on event photography you can make quite a bit of money. It is a varied and widely sought after field of photography.

Here's how you can do it

Cover only events where it is hard for people to take the pics themselves and where they will want to keep their memories frozen in film.

One idea is to go to kids sports events. Get permission from the coach to click pics for the parents watching and then start clicking away. If you turn up with a wopping big telephoto lens like the ones used for pro coverage of events, you will be taken seriously. Make sure you get all the children doing great action shots and then hand out flyers to all the parents watching with your web address. If you can get hold of the parents email address so you can email them the URL of you site then upload the pics to your web site that day and email everyone. If you have a simple shopping cart set up you can make money in a few hours as people pop in to see the pics and buy them for $20 or more a pop.

You can do a similar thing with weddings. Take all the regular pictures as part of the wedding coverage but then get your URL printed on the wedding invites and all the other wedding materials and also get an email list of all the wedding guests, offer the couple a nice 20% discount for doing this and then take lots of extra pics at the wedding of the guests doing all the things they do. Upload all the pics to your site and send the emails. You will then make a lot more money than the 20% discount it cost you because then 20 or 30 people will be also buying your pics at $20 or more a shot straight from your site. Charging a higher price for high res pics is also a great money spinner.

The key is to just find a corner of the market where you can take the pics and then sell them easily online.

Dog shows, fashion shows, horse shows, car shows, livestock competitions, rock shows, - the list goes on. Keep your eye out in the events section of your local paper to see what is happening. Always ask for permission to shoot pics and if you need to offer the people 10% of the income if feel you need to so you can get easy access.

The Secrets of Chakra Energy

By Jonathan Benjem

Did you know that our bodies have tremendous amounts of energies, which are sufficient to ensure our physical and mental health? This may come as news to many Westerners, but its a fact of life proved and followed by many ancient saints and scholars in countries, like India.

They call the phenomenon as the Chakra Energy. To a layman, it is the energy generated by the seven primary energy centers in the body. Interestingly, all these seven energy centers are situated in the upper half of the body, i.e., from head to the base of spine. These primary energy centers are:

* Root or the Base Chakra (RED) located at the base of the spine, known as the coccyx.

* Spleen Chakra (ORANGE) located in the lower abdomen region, just below the navel.

* Solar Plexus or the Power Chakra (YELLOW) located in the stomach region, just above the navel.

* Heart Chakra (GREEN) located in the center of the chest.

* Throat Chakra (BLUE) located in the throat region.

* Brow or the Third Eye Chakra (INDIGO) located between the brows on the forehead.

* Crown Chakra (VIOLET) located on top of the head.

These Chakras are in constant state of movement, which produces the energy, known as Chakra Energy. For the normal physical and mental health of the body, the synergy between the movements of these seven charkas plays the all-important role.

Your bodily health, both physical and mental, is entirely dependent on the harmonious movement of these seven primary charkas. Any kind of disharmony in their movements is unacceptable to the body and results in ill health in one form or the other.

You can say that Chakra System is a part of the sixth sense in your body. The energy produced by the Chakra System is responsible for blessing you with a healthy life or cursing you with an unhealthy one.

This balance in the Chakra movement is whats precisely required to enjoy a healthy existence.

The next question that arises in our quest for knowing more about Chakra Energy is how easy or difficult it is to achieve a balance in the movement of these Chakras? With practice, perseverance, and belief, nothing remains difficult forever. Undoubtedly, it is not a learn overnight process, but the modus operandi is pretty simple. All it involves is to sit in a convenient body posture, and relax and feel every body part from the visible organs to the minutest cell within. Early on, youll feel several distractions, like body pain, wavering thoughts, diverse emotions etc., but if you stick with the routine and perform this exercise at least half an hour daily, the results will be positive.

You may ask if achieving physical and emotional well being is so simple, then why are the incidents of such ailments on the rise? The answer is pretty obvious. The advancements in the modern day living have translated into our increasing reliance on the materialistic things. In the worldly pursuits, man has slowly but surely lost contact with the spiritual aspect of his existence. This myopic mindset has robbed humans of their earthiness.

Chakra Energy is always at your disposal. All you need is to just follow the exercise religiously. The positive results will entail naturally. Remember, Chakra balancing is the only short cut towards attaining the optimum Chakra Energy required by the body.

Spanish And Mexican Food On Long Island

By L.J. James

Like I have said before, I am no Gourmet Chef or expert on fine Cruise. I do how ever know what I like. Recently Me and a Buddy of mine stopped at the Meson Ole Dinner in Southampton on Long Island in NY, A Mexican and Spanish Restaurant.

Some of you may know I am a Biker, As any Biker knows some times the greetings we get when we walk into a place can be a look of "Oh No" and a half hearted "can I help you?", Is it right? Well of course not, but that's a different article. The Greeting We got at Meson Ole was a very warm friendly one and we felt welcomed in.

The Decor of the place was great and you could almost believe you where some where down in Mexico. We where promptly brought over some Nachos and Salsa and some fresh hot Bread and Butter. We ordered a Pitcher of Sangria, A drink I do not believe I have ever had before but I enjoyed none the less!

We ordered a Bunch of food and the Service was pretty fast. Now even the best service means nothing if the food is not good, Well the food was incredible. We ordered a set up where you made your own Pepper Steak Burritos and also a plate of Ham and Cheese Burritos. It was all made to perfection, The Pepper Steak was served in a separate pan and it was still sizzling when it was placed safely on the table ! I could not have been happier with the taste and preparation of the food! While we where enjoying the meal the waiter made sure we where happy at all times. When the Bread was finished more was served to us. We ate so much ran out of Burrito wraps, That is not a complaint because as soon as it was notice more where quickly brought to the Table.

I eat at many places as I really love to eat, But some times I come across a place like the Meson Ole Dinner where I feel I must share the experience with others! I was happy to find out that the Meson Ole has 8 locations across Long Island NY and two in Naples Florida (That's a bit of a big jump in the Chains Locations) Good food can sometimes be hard to find, Both Great Food and Great service at one place can be almost imposable to find these days! So If you are a fan of Mexican and Spanish Cuisine check out the Meson Ole Dinners in the Long Island NY area or when you are near Naples, Florida and let me know what you think of them.

An Insight Into How To Learn Telepathy

By Richard P Minks

Telepathy is a form of communication which does not use the five standard senses. Instead of getting your thoughts across through speech or visually, telepathic communication works through a direct mind-to-mind link. It's a useful skill which every man and woman innately possesses and with practice, you too can communicate this way.

You've already used your natural telepathic abilities, although you may not have recognized it as such. One example is the common experience of thinking of a person who you haven't had any contact from in a long time; and then getting a letter, phone call or email from this person shortly after, sometimes even at the same time that you're thinking of them!

These happenings are not mere coincidence. The person you were thinking of was actually thinking of you first and you received this telepathic communication.

This person was already meaning to get in touch and the telepathic link gave you a notice that they were thinking of you and that they were going to contact you. Of course, this can also work the other way around; which is why you may call someone you haven't spoken with in a while and have them tell you that they had just been thinking about you.

However, there is a lot of skepticism about telepathy. Some think that it belongs entirely to the realm of science fiction or fantasy or that even if it did exist, that only a small number of people have the ability to use telepathy. Many have a mental block which holds them back from using this natural ability. They may think that this is unnatural or even something which is evil in nature or that since the scientific proof hasn't yet come in that telepathy can't be a real phenomenon.

Still other people think that there is no reason to learn telepathy. After all, if it was so important, why wouldn't everyone practice it from a young age? This is the wrong way to think about it. We have to learn to use all of our other senses and just because our culture doesn't place a high value on psychic ability doesn't mean that learning telepathy is not worthwhile " it can be very useful, just as learning to communicate verbally is.

Telepathy and speech complement each other and when used together, allow you to communicate exactly what you mean. Telepathy can't always convey everything you want to say, but words can also prove inadequate. Using both of these natural communication abilities lets you be a more complete person and relate better with others.

There are a lot of pluses to learning telepathy. This is quite literally a sixth sense which allows you to more fully experience the world and enjoy richer interpersonal relationships. It takes practice, but so does picking up any new skill.

The best way to learn telepathy is by practicing with a partner. Ideally, this would be a close friend who you have known for a long time and who is as interested in you as learning telepathy. You can encourage each other to develop your skills; like learning a new language, it's easier to do with a friend.

You'll want to practice with your partner while in separate rooms or even with the two of you at your respective homes. This way you'll be unable to read body language or any other kind of visual cues. Relax and free your mind of stress and worry. After your practice sessions, call each other to compare notes.

One of you needs to go first and try to clearly visualize your partner. Visualize a connection between the two of you; many people find a beam of light to be a helpful image to concentrate on.

The next step is to use this visualized link to send your telepathic communications. Imagine your thoughts traveling over this link and your partner receiving them. Keep your thoughts simple enough to understand, but pick something to send which won't be easy to guess.

Once you have made your telepathic transmission, call your partner to ask what if anything they have received, then switch places and try to receive a transmission from your partner.

You do need to be patient as you learn telepathy; it takes time to learn this skill and it's important not to let yourself get frustrated if it doesn't always work. If you dont think your transmission has been successful after 15 minutes, take a break and try again later. Otherwise, you'll just wear yourself out.

You'll need to practice regularly and keep a positive attitude as you learn telepathy. Stick with it and don't get frustrated if you don't succeed at first. If you're patient, you'll be using your telepathy sooner than you think and you'll gain a wonderful new perspective on the world.

What Is The Significance Of A Christian Funeral?

By Dianne Park

How do Christians pay respects to their dead? A Christian funeral, unlike in some other religious belief systems, is not a somber occasion; instead, the those attending the funeral commemorate the life of the deceased. Moreover, a Christian funeral service wishes to impart a message of assurance to those left behind that the deceased is finally in paradise with their Creator.

Christians are staunch believers in the second coming of God's son Jesus Christ. Moreover, Christians think that at the time of their demise, judgment will be passed on the acts they have done while they were still alive. They believe that it is by their deeds that they will be worthy of sitting next to the throne God. The commandments of Jesus Christ are the guiding tenets that Christians try to live by in their day to day existence.

Christian funeral service for any god-fearing Christian means a celebration of the soul's eternal journey to the life after death. Funeral services and rituals are uplifting, because of the positive belief that the deceased has finally found a permanent home in God's place.

According to the Christians, death is an entry into the world of eternal bliss and permanent exit from this cycle of pain and suffering. That the soul is enjoying the bliss of heaven and is residing with God Himself is a comforting thought that absorbs the extremity of the shock that death brings to the family members. The Christian funeral ceremonies are conducted with these beliefs and feelings.

Generally, a pastor is the prime official at a Christian funeral service. They are usually conducted at the church which the deceased used to visit when he or she was alive. Generally there is no casket in the service, but sometimes there are exceptions to this, particularly when the service takes place inside a funeral home. A conventional Christian funeral ceremony does not involve viewing of the dead body at the time of service.

The funeral service is more of a memorial, in which the programmes start with singing of hymns, a vocalist, and religious readings from the Holy Scriptures. Then the priest gives a message and the people join in with a mass prayer.

Then the family members and close friends share their sorrows with the group, and the people express their sentiments and respect for the dead person and share their ruminations on how the dead person touched their lives and left an everlasting void. Some families also plan to organize a slideshow of photographs of the deceased or play a video recording from the life of the departed.

The service finally ends with a short fellowship reception at the church, where food is served. A service at grave is generally not included, though some Christian communities opt for that too.

A Good Funeral Director Can Be Of Immense Help In Your Moment Of Grief

By Kate Esteban

Funeral directors offer a great source of support and help to a family that is reeling under the sorrow of the recent death of a loved one. They manage the entire preparation and implementation of the proceedings, allowing family members some much required time and area to mentally accept the sad event and grieve with their friends and relatives.

The funeral director should take responsibility for several jobs in the funeral service beginning with transporting the body from the morgue or the house of the deceased to the burial site. All kinds of documentation and essential paperwork involved in the process, like acquiring a death certificate, getting all the permissions, organ donation etc comes under the purview of the funeral director.

An efficient funeral director also acts as the point of contact for all services critical for the funeral like managing vendors of flowers, music, food etc. He will be responsible for organising publication of obituaries in newspapers and intimating the funeral service venue and programme to anticipated attendees, who could be the relatives or acquaintances of the deceased.

After consulting with the family, the funeral director decides on an appropriate date, place and time for both the memorial service and the final rites. He also arranges for the visitation ceremony prior to the funeral service wherein close relatives and friends assemble to provide condolence to the grieving family. The funeral director's job ends with the final sealing of the departed person's grave on the day of funeral.

Compassion towards fellow human beings and unswerving commitment to the job are essential qualities which the funeral director must possess in order to successfully complete these jobs. You should therefore make sure that the funeral director you wish to employ has appropriate licenses and sufficient experience. He must have an established reputation for sincerity and capability so that he can satisfy all essential requirements without putting you through any further difficulties.

Tips On Buying The Perfect Bridal Dress For You

By Francis Bell

The bride is the centre of attraction in a wedding ceremony, hence how she appears and how she has dressed up becomes very significant. To make you look photogenic and draw the admiration of the invitees, the right bridal wear has to be selected, and this should be done keeping some factors in mind.

In case of bridal dress, the dependability of the store from where you are making the purchase is crucial, as well as timely delivery of the dress at your doorstep. A bridal gown requires a number of lengthy fitting sessions, so the closer the shop is from your place, the better it is.

While deciding your wedding gown, you must search for a colour that highlights your beauty and makes you stand out. The correct coloured dress should be selected from an array of carefully picked samples. Although fashion and appearance are very important, you must also keep comfort in mind. If you avoid a heavy and uncomfortable dress on your wedding day, you will not only look beautiful but also feel good, and the better you feel, the more you enjoy the event.

When picking the wedding dress, you should always keep in mind how it will appear in the photographs. In Singapore, there are a lot of photographers who are easily accessible and can tell you which colours and shades are best suited for photographs.

Almost all the major commercial centres have good Singapore wedding photographers waiting to assist you in this regard. It should not be hard to search for them via the internet either. Though many wedding photography Singapore firms have very good track records of performance, yet it is a good idea to consult people who have used their services so that you end up hiring the best guys for the job. Remember that the expertise and experience of the photographer can play a huge role in how the pictures will appear, and if you choose the wrong firm, you may have to repent later.

Easily Develop The Power Of Telepathy

By Paul Fowles

In layman's terms, telepathy is simply the transfer of thoughts, feelings, and/or emotions between one person and another, using only the power of their minds.

Contrary to what some may believe, practically everyone possesses a certain amount of telepathic ability, although most people have no idea as to how they should control it on a conscious level. Considering that each and every one of us experience some form of telepathic activity, even if only on a subconscious level, wouldn't it be great if we were able to control this ability in such a way that we could use it to communicate?

Of course, one can almost understand why there is still so much skepticism concerning the use of mine power. However, one should also take the following into consideration: have you ever bumped into someone who is depressed and down in the dumps, while you on the other hand were in the greatest mood ever? If you have, then you will know it certainly didn't take long before that person's mood started rubbing off on you.

Essentially, it's not the words which that person spoke which affected your mood, but rather the transference of their feelings and emotions to your own subconscious mind, and of course this is without a doubt, a form of telepathic communication.

In recent scientific studies, it's been determined that if someone accesses their subconscious mind and then learns to direct their thoughts and feelings towards another specific individual, dormant telepathic abilities can be brought back to life.

As children we are taught by our parents and by our teachers how to communicate. Not only are we taught how to speak, but we also learn a vast amount of body language. In fact, we learn to mimic to such an extent that we even talk with the same accent as those who taught us. Of course, this goes to show that we all have the same ability with regards to learning how to communicate, but unfortunately we only learn those things which we are taught.

However, what would life be like to day if our parents and teachers had taught us to use the "other ability"? Because we have never been taught how to communicate with our minds, we lack that ability, but that's not to say that we cannot still go ahead and develop the skill.

Let's take a quick look at some things you may wish to try in order to awaken your dormant ability:

Training Your Mental Muscle

As children learning to communicate, we had to learn how to control the movement of our mouth, and we had to learn how to strengthen our voice boxes. In much the same way, one needs to learn how to strengthen and develop your telepathic muscles.

Interestingly enough, the part of the brain that controls telepathy, exercises most of its influence on the subconscious level, when you're in a trancelike state of mind. Essentially, this state of mind is simply a state of deep relaxation which all human beings are able to reach.

The easiest way to reach a hypnotic state, is by learning how to relax your mind. Once you can successfully reach this point whenever you want, you will have managed to have trained your mind to be controlled at will.

Focusing

This is perhaps one of the most difficult challenges of all because it is certainly not easy to remain focused during a time when you're experiencing a trancelike state of mind. The next time you have a practice session, you need to practice focusing on someone you'd like to make contact with.

You need to picture this person in your mind together with happy thoughts. You then need to imagine this person actually receiving all those thoughts and feelings you're trying to transfer across. The length of time that you need to remain focused will depend on how long you feel it takes to make a connection.

Now you need to interrupt your focus in order to sever any contact with the other person. They should in turn feel that the contact has been broken and that communication has been lost, and as a result, they should then try and re-establish a connection from their side.

The reason why it is so important that you learn how to focus is so that when you eventually start training with a partner, you will already have conditioned your mind to be receptive with regards to images and impressions.

When You Practice With a Partner

Once you and your partner get ready for a training session, you'll need to decide which one of you will be the sender and which one of you will be the receiver. Of course, it will help if the sender chooses to project images of simple items which are brightly colored and for the most part easy to recognize.

On the other hand, the receiver should always keep a pen and paper nearby in order to make a note of any impressions or thoughts they receive.

When the two of you have reached the end of your practice session, then of course you should both compare your notes in order to see just how accurate the two of you have been. As time goes by, and you practiced more, you will find that you both become noticeably better as far as telepathic communication is concerned.
