Deep Sleep

Deep sleep is part of your sleep cycles during the night, but when we think of the mechanics of sleep, three letters often come to mind: REM. A staple of 1980s rock music (be honest, we all loved “Losing My Religion”) as well as an oft-quoted sleep standard, REM (or rapid eye movement) sleep has gained a reputation as the highly coveted and difficult to achieve period of sleep that recharges your batteries, stores your memories, and houses your dreams. It’s rare to read an article, how-to, or scientific study that doesn’t mention the many benefits of REM sleep.

But contrary to just about anything you read on sleep science, REM sleep isn’t the be-all and end-all of what happens during the night. There’s another layer of sleep that’s even more crucial to overall health. And it’s aptly named “deep sleep.” Part of the typical sleep cycle each night, deep sleep occurs between light sleep and REM. It serves several functions in the restoration and evolution of your brain. Here are the 5 things you need to know about this precise sleep stage to make sure you’re getting it every night...

  • Deep sleep regenerates energy in the brain.

  • Memories are made during deep sleep.

  • It cleans out your brain.

  • Deep sleep keeps you growing — but decreases as you age.

  • Sounds improve your deep sleep quality

Sleep Mechanics... or ideas to solve long standing sleep issues, and for occasional difficulties as well

Sleep Mechanics... or ideas to solve long standing sleep issues, and for occasional difficulties as well

I will write this article in my usual style, that may be difficult for some... but easy for me.

I will write about my own experiences only... too many books and articles that talk about things that may or may not be true, useful, with one thing in common: what they write about is Tree of Knowledge... myth, truisms, but not the writer"s personal experience.

With that said: I will not write about anything I haven"t tested both on myself and on at least one client.

So instead of writing a book, this will be short and sweet. Just a handful of true and tried, yet unusual approaches for lack of sleep due to difficulty to go to sleep or stay asleep.

Let me start with some general stuff:


  • 1. Having a regular sleep schedule, going to bed, turning the light off, and getting up is essential.




The more you are headstrong, undisciplined, willful, or resistant, the worse your sleep will become.

Sleep, in some ways, is more important for your mental, physical, and emotional well-being than food. And just like with a healthy diet, the whole world seems to have conspired to rob us, and turn us its "bitch"... eat what they tell us, sleep when we are allowed... not a life for a person who wants to live a life worth living.

So the most appropriate title for this article, or report, or whatever it will turn out to be, is sleep mechanics for a life worth living.


  • 2. Conscious sleeping




I know people, especially men, who fall asleep on the chiropractor"s table, the massage table, the recliner, or the couch and then can"t sleep at night.

Sleep, in this regard, is like eating. The more appetite you build up the better the food will digest. Not hunger: appetite. But this article is not about eating: it is about sleeping.

Same with sex... by the way.

The more undisciplined you are, the more pleasure seeking you are, the higher your desire number, the worse you will sleep, and the lower your life satisfaction will be.


So get conscious about this principle: the bigger the tension between present need (food, sex, sleep) and its fulfilled, satisfied state, the better the quality of the need fulfillment.

Too scientific for you? Just wait till later: life is scientific, and not for the mentally slothful, or the feeble minded. If that is you: don"t read it.

Now, to translate what that means: you need to refrain from falling asleep during the day, so your appetite for sleep stays high and peaks at bedtime.


Sleep has phases. they are, I hear, all important, but in my humble opinion, the most important, the most restorative part is the deep sleep phase, and unless you really need to sleep, you will skip that. That phase is 3-3.5 hour long, and not the length of a nap. Even a short nap can rob you of that phase.

You"ll sleep, but wake up tired. Spend the day in zombie mode... and you are the only one to blame.


  • 3. Train yourself to be able to direct your attention at will




Whether you are tired or not, the mind isn"t interested in letting you sleep.

The nature of the mind is to tread water, producing nothing other than noise. So training your attention to obey your conscious will and move to something other than the noise the mind creates is one of the biggest missings for people who have a hard time falling asleep, or going back to sleep after they awakened in the middle of the night.

The first phase of this training is to notice. Become aware that the mind doesn"t shut up.

It keeps on making noise. It is its nature. You cannot silence the mind... you can only pay attention to something else... and starve it of your attention.

I am not going to deal with the daytime part of life in this article, but the ability, the skill, the effectiveness you learn to redirect your attention to where you want it to go can save your day (and your sanity) as well.

Now... if you are like most people today, you don"t have even enough faith in anything to make it work for you. This includes remedies, healings, advice, and therefore this includes what I am teaching here.

Now, truth be told, I cannot give you faith. I cannot give you trust.


If I could, I would dole it out like candy... because living without faith is like trying to cross the ocean without a rudder, trying to get through the dark forest without a compass.

I have had tons of students and clients who followed (supposedly) my instructions, and it took them not where I wanted to take them.

All because of that lack of a mustard seed size of faith.

I have even noticed it, occasionally, on myself to be a fatalist... especially when it comes to health and dying.

Without catching it, without getting conscious of your lack of trust, you are on a slippery slope to nowhere.


I teach a method of reclaiming that lost faith that is suppressed in this article here: https://www.yourvibration.com/47717/faith-transformed-life/ and the accompanying video course



The video course will teach you, through example, what is a way to reclaim your suppressed faith/trust, let go of control, so you can start moving your attention and your life in a better direction.

It is a big help to know what has been keeping you holding the reins or the steering wheel so rigidly, so tightly... because you can"t catch what you can"t see.

Your Bach Energy® Profile will pinpoint where and how you do that: it is individual, personal, and unique for each person... for me, for example, is being easily discouraged... and dropping the ball. So even if I was going in the right direction, unless I learn to take a deep breath and hang in there when I feel discouraged, I"ll never do anything till completing, and never get to where I want to get to.

It cannot be fixed... it is a choice I need to make at least ten times a day...


Your linchpin issue will be different from mine, guaranteed. And until you gain mastery over it, it will keep on holding you from getting where you want to get.

Now, how did this come up in a sleep-mechanics article?

Right? Good question!

Unless you recover your faith/trust, a spiritual ACTIVE in your DNA!!!, you are wasting your time...


Hope is different... Having hope to FIX your sleep won"t be enough to take you to the sunny side of things.

You will need that faith and trust... or nothing will work for you. Why? Because you will make a rule from what you learn, and as a rule, it won"t work. Or you will simply try and then stop trying, throwing your hands up claiming: this doesn"t work either! No matter what I do...

I will continue this article in part two. I haven"t decided... but most likely I"ll make it available only to people who have proven me that they mean business... I am not sure yet.

But if you sign up to my notification list, I"ll notify you when the second part is published.

The magic of synergy: Bach Profile and Mustard Seed... together

I got an email from a student who was watching my Mustard Seed video and also bought his Bach Profile.

Both are vehicles for deep insight, but together they are unbeatable, because how you go about deciding what is your higher power that you are going to honor, as in the 12 step programs, will come completely consistent with your Bach Profile.

People want things simple... but they want them simpler than they should be. So they believe god did it all... and it is still the same god that does it. And, of course, that makes them ineffective in life, and do or not do things. ((The current humanity"s approach to everything is the opposite of synergistic. Looking at a narrow interest, through a narrow cone of vision, ignoring everything else.

  • Medicine, traditional and alternative... totally non-synergistic, even if they falsely call themselves wholistic...

  • Science

  • Education

  • Food


Even when someone offers you something synergistic, like a system, you"ll pick and choose what you like, and ignore the rest.

The result: no results, no health, no wealth, no peace of mind.

Being able to see the big picture means: seeing, on the same screen, the seemingly unconnected things... At the present time, the average cone of vision, in percentage of the whole picture, is 3% for all of humanity, 6% for my clients.

As long as you have such narrow cone of vision, you need to be willing to move your eyes rapidly from one screen to the next... or you will still have no chance for synergy.

I think this is what is going on in the current Playground: people get stuck in a little corner of the universe, completely ignoring the rest as non-existent.))

Let"s take the Mustard Seed principle: that you need "faith" the size of a mustard seed to be able to receive the benevolence of the Universe, of god, the benefit of your work, the good health you need to live a good life, the love of a child... etc.

Without that "faith" you won"t get all that.

Worse than that:

  • without that you won"t get the benefits of my teaching.

  • You won"t get the benefits of the Source Energies...

  • Without that you won"t eat and drink the way your body needs you to do it.

  • Without that you"ll listen to the mind, to rules made by the mind,

  • without that you are like a driftwood pushed around on the river.


Depending on your Bach Profile that shows the main ways you express, in your life, desire to receive for the self alone, you are having a hard time finding that "faith"... I still don"t have a better name for it, although...

If I had to tell you what it feels like, to me, I can.


I arrive to a place where my base nature, discouraged and quits, seems to be the way to go, I have been teetering. It takes only a second to not jump the gun... but stay there still as I can be.

I am there about ten times a day... used to be a lot more. Discouraged and quits. Quits even looking.

You, in the same situation probably say,

  • Meh, it"s not worth it. or

  • Meh, I can"t do it. or

  • Meh, f... it. Or

  • Meh I will never amount to anything.

  • Meh, the world is against me.

  • Meh, I am too stupid.


I say: this isn"t working out. And that used to be enough for me to quit.


But ever since I have internalized my "higher power", and it took me decades, because I had no teacher, no mentor, no coach to help me with that, ever since it has become "second nature" for me to wait, I have stopped quitting every time. I still do, but only a small fragment of the time... not all the time. Less than 10% of the time... and then, most of the time, I still recover, after a little or a lot of suffering.

When I am looking, the secret is to keep my eyes open, keep my insides open, be willing to be surprised.


I used to hate surprises: it proved to me that I wasn"t superior. It was difficult giving that up.

You see, what is your way is what we call "payoffs" that keep you being the same.

I called the shot: it is not working, or not working out, and I quit.

Pretty much the pattern to create a life that is not worth writing home about.

Your payoff is a stuck way that you keep yourself the same...


The most frequent payoff is being right. Being right about people mistreating you. Being right about being better/worse than them. But mostly about stuff that happened decades ago, but are still festering.

Most people don"t want to know themselves, by the way. Why? Because they don"t want to change.

Why wouldn"t someone, who is miserable, want to change? Boggles the mind.

But it is still the payoffs that hold the "purse string" or the puppet string: The payoffs that keep on giving short term glee, long term suffering.

The saying: you can either be right or happy... you can either be right or rich... is from this payoff dynamic.


Every time the payoff runs the show, you cannot be happy, and you cannot be rich... or thin... or healthy... or successful... or write your thesis... or go to bed at a decent time... or be kind to people and have peace and harmony around you.

Everyone focuses on the costs... complain about it... try to fix it... blame others for it...

But the cause of the costs is in the payoffs.


As long as being right is more important to you than what you want, you"ll be wretched...

And being right is just one of the 11 possible payoffs.

Helen Keller was wrong suggesting that you should keep your face to the light... wrong advice, a straight way to hell.

Keep your attention on the payoff... catch it before it wreaks havoc, and you"ll be on the strait and narrow to heaven.

Having chosen a higher power is mighty useful in that process.

Some feedback from other buyers of the Bach profile tell me that you may not be able to see where your linchpin evil inclination lies... That may be good news... It tells me that you have been looking at the wrong place, and that"s why things are not working so well for you...

Mastering your inner dynamic, even if it takes time and work, is the only work worth doing... because the results are heaven on earth... truly.

Buy the Mustard Seed video


Buy your Bach Profile

So what is the synergistic process between the Bach Profile and the Mustard Seed?


More often than not, your linchpin "emotion", your Bach Profile issue is blocking the way to your Mustard Seed.

And right after that, your lack of faith blocks your view of your linchpin issue.

Synergy means that the sum total of each elements is more than the mathematical sum... ((synergy: the interaction or cooperation of two or more organizations, substances, or other agents to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate effects. The opposite of synergy is fragmentation, disconnected... narrow cone of vision.)) so in this case one mustard seed plus one Bach linchpin issue will result in an almost infinite increase.

Here is an example: one of my students and I share a big issue: we have an issue with trust... Because of this trust issue, our dominant behavior is to frantically avoid the domination of anything and anyone.


Going deep and finding a higher power that can"t dominate but can guide is the first element of a path towards a life that can work... because avoiding domination renders you predictably a non-achiever.

And then, armed with that higher power (faith?) you can start mitigating your resistance to be told what to do... and at least some of the time you"ll do what you were suggested that you do.

I help people deal with their core issues, mostly in private coaching, because there is just isn"t enough time to do it on group calls.


If you think you are ready to deal with the core issues, ask me if I am available to coach you. Private coaching isn"t inexpensive... and it isn"t just one session: it is a process.

Want to become competent in life? Competence is rare... even professionals are not very competent

I watched, mostly listened to the "masterclass" selling Eric Edmeades" Wildfit course.

The truth value of what Eric Edmeades said was 30%. There was nothing in it that was untrue... it just cannot go higher when you have a product for mass consumption, a one size fit all product.

Eric Edmeades" vibration is 200.

As in every masterclass, he was having a conversation with Vishen Lakhiani, who looks fabulous, but is insufferable, for the most part. His vibration is 150.

Eric 200 talks about being well, living the way your species evolved to live, eat according to seasons, and to shun manufactured food with ingredients. He wants you to have energy, clarity, and live longer... while Vishen 150, from the level of his vibration can only see weight loss...

The average vibration of the people who buy or consider buying The Wildfit course is 110...

Contemplating that, I came to a realization: your vibration is too low to even see or even be interested in the purpose of health, the purpose of eating right.

You hear what you are interested in, and that is low vibration concerns... mostly about looking good, or getting better if you are sick.

Which pretty much clues me into the world of the visitors of my site as well.

Because the hardest thing to get, to grok for any human on any level of vibration is that...

...you are causing your own misery, 100 percent of it, 100 percent of the time, and that you are causing your own joy, 100 percent of it, 100 percent of the time.


Both Eric Edmeades and I have a very hard time getting it through to you.

The human mind lies to you.



  • One of the lies is that you are not causing anything.

  • Another is that you can do things a little bit, for a short time, and that will solve the problem.

  • It also tells you that once you know it, you can and will use that knowledge

  • It also tells you that whatever resonates with you must be true

  • It tells you that if you say it, it is true... ie. talking about flying IS flying


And, of course, if you are a garden variety human who lives your whole life in your mind, you"ll believe everything your mind tells you... because even if and when another person speaks, live or in writing, you"ll only hear a filtered version of what they say... you actually never hear more than 10% of what they say, and even that 10% will be only stuff that agrees with the mind"s lies.

Another thing that no one understands, but it can be measured: if and when your vibration drops, and it does drop, until you fully earned it, your comprehension, your ability to hold onto information diminishes by a lot, and your cone of vision narrows.


You truly and whole heartedly believe that your actions have no consequences.

And seemingly they often don"t... not in the visible realm of reality.

You could see it in how you feel, but you can always point to outside influences to explain it away.

You can lie to yourself, but you cannot lie to me: I can measure some crucial measures in a few seconds, and I know exactly what happened.

I love the analogy of Arthur Miller"s: Take One"s Life in One"s Arms
I think it"s a mistake to ever look for hope outside of one"s self. One day the house smells of fresh bread, the next of smoke and blood. One day you faint because the gardener cuts his finger off, within a week you"re climbing over corpses of children bombed in a subway. What hope can there be if that is so?

I tried to die near the end of the war. The same dream returned each night until I dared not to go to sleep and grew quite ill. I dreamed I had a child, and even in the dream I saw it was my life, and it was an idiot, and I ran away. But it always crept onto my lap again, clutched at my clothes. Until I thought, if I could kiss it, whatever in it was my own, perhaps I could sleep. And I bent to its broken face, and it was horrible... but I kissed it. I think one must finally take one"s life in one"s arms.

~Arthur Miller from the play After the Fall

It takes all you got and more to face that broken faced child and kiss it. That child is you and that is your life.

It is not that some people can and others can"t... even the ones who can spend weeks, months, years building up to the courage to first look at that face and then kiss it.

And even after you kissed it... you may stray, deny it... and it may kill you and your life. You have to keep on embracing that broken faced child.

I did this work, embracing my evil inclination, my broken faced child, some 20 years ago, but other than in one area of my life, it didn"t expand to all areas.

While I was quite fulfilled, and joyful in my work life, I was quite miserable in my physical life: pains, extra weight to carry, poor sleep, losing my hair.

I was already doing health consultations with people, except I wasn"t taking my own medicine, or only partially. And partially doesn"t quite do it, does it? You either do a system, or you are wasting your time.

And then I suddenly went whole hog... and experienced wellness. Energy. Glorious.

But whatever it is that doesn"t want you to experience the good life, Kabbalists call it the Opponent, a shapeshifting trickster, Christians, I think, call it Satan, and in transformational parlor, it is the invisible dynamic of complaints... I gradually got sick, and sicker, and even sicker.

I started to have to spend most of my days in bed... And then fell of my diet that served me so well... and started to add foods that are on the no-no list...

I am sharing this so you can see yourself in my example... if you look, you can see yourself and your attitude, your own behavior.

Listening to Eric Edmeades yesterday came at a nick of time... to save the day.

I don"t have to do his course: my food and supplement list, individually muscle tested for me, is all I need to get well again. In fact I only need to change a few minor things, seemingly inconsequential, but I am sure they are the culprits that I got so deadly weak in the past few months.

The world, other people, the food advertising, the availability, the manufactured tastes are at work 24/7 to take you off the path. Maybe even financial considerations: eating chicken, bread, pasta and chips is cheaper than eating food that supports your mental and physical abilities.

How you do anything is how you do everything. And if you are not keeping to the diet that has proven itself to get you well, you are also not doing the work in other areas of life, including owning what owns you.

Your life is owned and directed by invisible dynamics that unless you recognize them and bring your life under your own control, will make your life spin out of control, leaving you a wreck.


But the mind and the Opponent don"t want you to take control.

The work of any human, in their lifetime, is to wrestle control from the Opponent.

It is not to save the world, the Amazon rain forests, the little babies of Rhodesia, or the whales that are slaughtered to extinction.

No. the work is to do every day of every year is to wrestle back the control of your life from the Opponent, the inner enemy.


It is not the government, it is not the wars, it is not the police, it is not your husband, your daughter, your son who is the cause of your misery. And not even your health...

It is you relating to them from the mind, from meaning, from powerlessness.


There are a lot of words that express that powerlessness, and you need to be able to recognize them, so you can derive them back to the source of the bad behavior or the bad feeling.

You are never really powerless. You may not have power over what is happening. You may not have power over another human or their behavior.

But you always have access to your power to your own interpretation, your attention, your attitude and your behavior.

Powerless means "no power" and it is always a lie.


Your desire to receive for the self alone has your attention glued to areas where you don"t have power... over others.

But you can redirect your attention to where you have power, and stop lying... and stop suffering.

A complaint is a sign of suffering. And you are always complaining.

And every complaint, uttered or not, is a sign that you want power over circumstances, others, not over yourself, not over the Opponent.


Complaint can be your best friend, your soul mate, that reminds you to redirect your attention to where it can cause something... power?

This is what I teach, this is what we are meant to practice in the Playground.

A new Playground group, maybe even two, are set to start within a few weeks.

Learning from each previous Playground, each new Playground becomes more effective, and this time is not any different.

What are the biggest difficulties people experience in the Playground?


Just like in Eric Edmeades" Wildfit and my health consulting, the biggest issue is that people expect the program to do the work... and no program does the work: YOU have to do the work.

It is not time consuming, you can just replace your spinning your wheels time much of your time is spent with, with actually studying what there is to study, PRACTICING what there is to practice.

  • Understanding is the boobie prize... not enough. By itself it is worth nothing.

  • Musing, philosophizing, talking about what there is to do is not the work:

  • most of the work is catching, redirecting the attention, and releasing the Opponent"s grasp on your view.


Understanding doesn"t help.


Let"s look at understanding with regards to swimming: you understand what keeps you afloat is your hand and leg movements.

So you jump into the water and wait for the hand and leg movements to kick in, but they don"t... you actually need to DO it.

So you sink... you may or may not get rescued. But you blame it on the course.

I remember when I was little, about 3-4 years old, hanging over the water in a sling, on my belly, practicing the breast strokes, until they were automatic.

Then I was lowered into the water, with the sling (much like a huge fishing pole, lol), to now practice the movement in water.

I wasn"t allowed to get into the water, until the movements became unconsciously competent... ((

You start out with unconscious incompetence in the course. You don"t know anything from anything else.

You consider your emotions reality almost 100% of the time, and you don"t even know the names of the emotions... Drama, drama, drama

Everything is the same as everything else. People are nasty, want to take advantage of you, unhelpful, only interested in what they are interested in. Your entire attention is on what THEY are doing to you, to your hopes and aspirations.

Or you plan something and then do something different... and you blame yourself... but there is no distinction. You may ask "why did I do that?!" but there is no answer that frees you up to actually do what you planned to do.

Unconsciously incompetent.


Then you learn about some distinctions, some new ways to see what is happening under the cover...

Now, maybe, you are consciously incompetent... a big step in the right direction. You know you have no idea what you could do to feel powerful again.

You are still a victim, an effect, but now you know it. And you know that your lack of working knowledge of the human condition is what is causing it.


Next step: I twist your arm, I yell at you, and you finally get off your a** and learn one of those invisible dynamics, the one with the complaints. It"s the easiest... especially because you are a complaining machine, have always been.

You blame... aha... there is a complaint... Complaint catching activated. It still takes some work, some pondering, some conversations to see how the invisible dynamic trapped you, but you get out of the trap... and for now all is well.

Conscious competence is your level now.


You do this by yourself or with your Playground partner on the calls, and eventually you find yourself unconsciously competent... like the swimmer... you don"t have to think how to move your arms and your legs, they are moving on their own accord.

You have almost never done this before, at least not consciously.

You learned a mighty few things to the level of unconscious competence, but almost never consciously.

You remember forever knowing how to do those things, but if you are truly competent ((only very few people are competent in anything, by the way. In anything, including their profession! They have an air of competence, but it is a pretense. My broken wrist being set misaligned is a good example... It will hurt till I die... because it wasn"t true competence... One or two steps were missing. One of them I can guess: they never looked twice... never checked if the direction they are going is accurate.

This is why competence, real competence is rare: overconfidence. 99% of accidents are caused by overconfidence. 99% of accounting errors are cause by overconfidence. Your diet mistakes are caused by overconfidence... Medical mistakes... over diagnosing cancer by double... Killing people by the cure of a misdiagnosed disease.)) it was always a process to become competent... if you ever became competent. In anything.

Anyway, this is the process we do in the Playground: getting you from an unconsciously incompetent human to a consciously competent human...


...who doesn"t suffer, because you can find your own power... and because the principle: there is never anything wrong in reality is now something you can say, and it is true when you say it, because that is your life experience.

This is a long article. If you are just scanning it, you probably missed 97% of it...

How you do anything is how you do everything.

With this attitude you are going to have a hard time in the Playground training...

I am just saying...

OK, Playground: You can find out more about the program here: https://www.yourvibration.com/playground

Want to become competent in life? Competence is rare... even professionals are not very competent

I watched, mostly listened to the "masterclass" selling Eric Edmeades" Wildfit course.

The truth value of what Eric Edmeades said was 30%. There was nothing in it that was untrue... it just cannot go higher when you have a product for mass consumption, a one size fit all product.

Eric Edmeades" vibration is 200.

As in every masterclass, he was having a conversation with Vishen Lakhiani, who looks fabulous, but is insufferable, for the most part. His vibration is 150.

Eric 200 talks about being well, living the way your species evolved to live, eat according to seasons, and to shun manufactured food with ingredients. He wants you to have energy, clarity, and live longer... while Vishen 150, from the level of his vibration can only see weight loss...

The average vibration of the people who buy or consider buying The Wildfit course is 110...

Contemplating that, I came to a realization: your vibration is too low to even see or even be interested in the purpose of health, the purpose of eating right.

You hear what you are interested in, and that is low vibration concerns... mostly about looking good, or getting better if you are sick.

Which pretty much clues me into the world of the visitors of my site as well.

Because the hardest thing to get, to grok for any human on any level of vibration is that...

...you are causing your own misery, 100 percent of it, 100 percent of the time, and that you are causing your own joy, 100 percent of it, 100 percent of the time.


Both Eric Edmeades and I have a very hard time getting it through to you.

The human mind lies to you.



  • One of the lies is that you are not causing anything.

  • Another is that you can do things a little bit, for a short time, and that will solve the problem.

  • It also tells you that once you know it, you can and will use that knowledge

  • It also tells you that whatever resonates with you must be true

  • It tells you that if you say it, it is true... ie. talking about flying IS flying


And, of course, if you are a garden variety human who lives your whole life in your mind, you"ll believe everything your mind tells you... because even if and when another person speaks, live or in writing, you"ll only hear a filtered version of what they say... you actually never hear more than 10% of what they say, and even that 10% will be only stuff that agrees with the mind"s lies.

Another thing that no one understands, but it can be measured: if and when your vibration drops, and it does drop, until you fully earned it, your comprehension, your ability to hold onto information diminishes by a lot, and your cone of vision narrows.


You truly and whole heartedly believe that your actions have no consequences.

And seemingly they often don"t... not in the visible realm of reality.

You could see it in how you feel, but you can always point to outside influences to explain it away.

You can lie to yourself, but you cannot lie to me: I can measure some crucial measures in a few seconds, and I know exactly what happened.

I love the analogy of Arthur Miller"s: Take One"s Life in One"s Arms
I think it"s a mistake to ever look for hope outside of one"s self. One day the house smells of fresh bread, the next of smoke and blood. One day you faint because the gardener cuts his finger off, within a week you"re climbing over corpses of children bombed in a subway. What hope can there be if that is so?

I tried to die near the end of the war. The same dream returned each night until I dared not to go to sleep and grew quite ill. I dreamed I had a child, and even in the dream I saw it was my life, and it was an idiot, and I ran away. But it always crept onto my lap again, clutched at my clothes. Until I thought, if I could kiss it, whatever in it was my own, perhaps I could sleep. And I bent to its broken face, and it was horrible... but I kissed it. I think one must finally take one"s life in one"s arms.

~Arthur Miller from the play After the Fall

It takes all you got and more to face that broken faced child and kiss it. That child is you and that is your life.

It is not that some people can and others can"t... even the ones who can spend weeks, months, years building up to the courage to first look at that face and then kiss it.

And even after you kissed it... you may stray, deny it... and it may kill you and your life. You have to keep on embracing that broken faced child.

I did this work, embracing my evil inclination, my broken faced child, some 20 years ago, but other than in one area of my life, it didn"t expand to all areas.

While I was quite fulfilled, and joyful in my work life, I was quite miserable in my physical life: pains, extra weight to carry, poor sleep, losing my hair.

I was already doing health consultations with people, except I wasn"t taking my own medicine, or only partially. And partially doesn"t quite do it, does it? You either do a system, or you are wasting your time.

And then I suddenly went whole hog... and experienced wellness. Energy. Glorious.

But whatever it is that doesn"t want you to experience the good life, Kabbalists call it the Opponent, a shapeshifting trickster, Christians, I think, call it Satan, and in transformational parlor, it is the invisible dynamic of complaints... I gradually got sick, and sicker, and even sicker.

I started to have to spend most of my days in bed... And then fell of my diet that served me so well... and started to add foods that are on the no-no list...

I am sharing this so you can see yourself in my example... if you look, you can see yourself and your attitude, your own behavior.

Listening to Eric Edmeades yesterday came at a nick of time... to save the day.

I don"t have to do his course: my food and supplement list, individually muscle tested for me, is all I need to get well again. In fact I only need to change a few minor things, seemingly inconsequential, but I am sure they are the culprits that I got so deadly weak in the past few months.

The world, other people, the food advertising, the availability, the manufactured tastes are at work 24/7 to take you off the path. Maybe even financial considerations: eating chicken, bread, pasta and chips is cheaper than eating food that supports your mental and physical abilities.

How you do anything is how you do everything. And if you are not keeping to the diet that has proven itself to get you well, you are also not doing the work in other areas of life, including owning what owns you.

Your life is owned and directed by invisible dynamics that unless you recognize them and bring your life under your own control, will make your life spin out of control, leaving you a wreck.


But the mind and the Opponent don"t want you to take control.

The work of any human, in their lifetime, is to wrestle control from the Opponent.

It is not to save the world, the Amazon rain forests, the little babies of Rhodesia, or the whales that are slaughtered to extinction.

No. the work is to do every day of every year is to wrestle back the control of your life from the Opponent, the inner enemy.


It is not the government, it is not the wars, it is not the police, it is not your husband, your daughter, your son who is the cause of your misery. And not even your health...

It is you relating to them from the mind, from meaning, from powerlessness.


There are a lot of words that express that powerlessness, and you need to be able to recognize them, so you can derive them back to the source of the bad behavior or the bad feeling.

You are never really powerless. You may not have power over what is happening. You may not have power over another human or their behavior.

But you always have access to your power to your own interpretation, your attention, your attitude and your behavior.

Powerless means "no power" and it is always a lie.


Your desire to receive for the self alone has your attention glued to areas where you don"t have power... over others.

But you can redirect your attention to where you have power, and stop lying... and stop suffering.

A complaint is a sign of suffering. And you are always complaining.

And every complaint, uttered or not, is a sign that you want power over circumstances, others, not over yourself, not over the Opponent.


Complaint can be your best friend, your soul mate, that reminds you to redirect your attention to where it can cause something... power?

This is what I teach, this is what we are meant to practice in the Playground.

A new Playground group, maybe even two, are set to start within a few weeks.

Learning from each previous Playground, each new Playground becomes more effective, and this time is not any different.

What are the biggest difficulties people experience in the Playground?


Just like in Eric Edmeades" Wildfit and my health consulting, the biggest issue is that people expect the program to do the work... and no program does the work: YOU have to do the work.

It is not time consuming, you can just replace your spinning your wheels time much of your time is spent with, with actually studying what there is to study, PRACTICING what there is to practice.

  • Understanding is the boobie prize... not enough. By itself it is worth nothing.

  • Musing, philosophizing, talking about what there is to do is not the work:

  • most of the work is catching, redirecting the attention, and releasing the Opponent"s grasp on your view.


Understanding doesn"t help.


Let"s look at understanding with regards to swimming: you understand what keeps you afloat is your hand and leg movements.

So you jump into the water and wait for the hand and leg movements to kick in, but they don"t... you actually need to DO it.

So you sink... you may or may not get rescued. But you blame it on the course.

I remember when I was little, about 3-4 years old, hanging over the water in a sling, on my belly, practicing the breast strokes, until they were automatic.

Then I was lowered into the water, with the sling (much like a huge fishing pole, lol), to now practice the movement in water.

I wasn"t allowed to get into the water, until the movements became unconsciously competent... ((
the ability to do something successfully or efficiently.
