The Power of Your Mind: Affecting Everything from Wellness to Prosperity

How does your brain/mind affect your health, wellness, longevity, prosperity, success and more?

Early research by Eldon Taylor and others proved that auditory stimulation is one of the most effective ways to change a state of mind. Eldon Taylor theorized that by using verbal stimuli just below the threshold of awareness, he could have a positive effect on the moods and behavior of the listeners. His theories were proven correct and thus were born the InnerTalk® method.

A former practicing criminalist, Taylor says he first became intrigued by this concept over 25 years ago when he heard of a study completed by the LA Police Department in anticipation of the LA-hosted Olympics.  The study, he says, focused on information delivery–what we know as subliminal messages.  This study featured sounds, such as furnaces, with messages embedded that would speak to a person’s physiology.  It was first tested on the police cadets, he says, but had to be terminated within 3 days, since they all experienced powerful physiological reactions, such as dehydration.

What Role Does The Subconscious Mind Play?

“Science has discovered many of the hard wired connections that appear to give the brain/mind so much control over the body (health, wellness, longevity, and youthfulness) and our destinies in terms of success, learning, wealth and prosperity,” says Eldon Taylor. Yet, as his website points out, the only limitation is that which is self-imposed, with us being subjected to repeated messages teaching self doubt, fear, anxiety, etc. This programmed language of limitation has become the life script, expectation, and therefore most of the reality.

He continues: To change current behavior, you first have to change the information stored in the subconscious. It sounds easy, but you can’t just tell your subconscious to think differently and ask for life-changing behavior modification. You must find a way to counteract those subconscious thoughts and introduce different thoughts for your subconscious to use. The InnerTalk method will help you control the introduction of stimuli to the subconscious and therefore control behavior modification.”

Taylor says his technology and products have been rigorously tested by independent researchers at leading universities, such as Stanford.

” In the most rigorous of scientific research designs, the double blind study, our programs have repeatedly demonstrated their effectiveness. From Weight Loss to Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), from stress to depression, from learning to examination anxiety, and more, we have demonstrated our ability to facilitate your mind power,” he says.

Five Ways to Get Back in Shape for Summer

Memorial Day, the unofficial start of summer, is just around the corner, and soon we’ll be wearing bathing suits, shorts, sleeveless shirts and other hot-weather clothing.

You may have found that you gained a few pounds or got out of shape during the winter. No need for despair, though–here’s a quick- start guide to help you get back on track quickly!

  • Diet: One of the great things about summer is the abundance of fresh, colorful fruits and vegetables. Fill up on them! Remember, the more colorful your plate the better, because every color includes a different set of phytonutrients–those things that keep us healthy. T

TIP: FOR A TASTY LOW-CALORIE SNACK, MAKE ‘ICE ‘CREAM’ FROM BLENDED, FROZEN BANANAS. ADD PECANS, PEANUT BUTTER, BERRIES AND OTHER FRUIT TO MAKE YOUR ‘SUNDAE’

  • A word about superfoods: Some foods have very high nutrient levels, and they are called superfoods. They include berries, citrus fruits, and greens, such as broccoli, kale, collards, bok choy, yogurt, pumpkin, chocolate (Yes! but it must have over 65% cacao) and more.
  • Water: This substance transports nutrients and oxygen to every cell and you’ll end up feeling more energetic—which means you’ll be more active, burn more calories and spend more time at the gym. How much? Divide your weight in half–that’s how many ounces you probably should drink per day.
  • Exercise: I was once told by New York City physician, Dr. Steve Tsoutsouras that exercise was one of the pillars of anti-aging—so you definitely want to add that to your get-back-in-shape program.
  • “Taking care of yourself in all aspects is important, and exercise is right at the top,” said Tsoutsouras. “It releases endorphins, which make you feel better and can reduce stress.
  • In addition, exercise controls weight; fights fatigue and promotes better sleep.
  • “Some of my patients tell me they can’t sleep without exercising,” says Dr. Kathia Roberts, Ph.D., ND, D.PHYT.
  • Nutritional Cleansing: While a cleanse isn’t a weight loss program, per se, the happy result can be the loss of a few pounds and you rid your body of toxins, rejuvenate it (who wouldn’t like to look younger and have a lot more energy??), and provide the body with the necessary enzymes to transport nutrients. There are a lot of ways to cleanse, whether it’s with juices or products, but my personal favorite is Isagenix. If you’d like to know more about that, or any other method of cleansing, don’t hesitate to contact me.
  • Self- Care: Never minimize the importance of a good massage or any other self-care item! Self-care helps to get your body back in balance and one of the happy results is a lack of depression, fatigue and other energy-zappers. You’ll eat more healthfully, too!
