Subconscious Mind Secrets And Myths

By Geoff Vincent

Let's face it; practically everyone in the world today is aware of the fact that they have a subconscious mind. In fact, when things go wrong in our lives, many people immediately place the blame on their subconscious mind. Unfortunately however, not many people seem to realize just how powerful the subconscious mind can be, and that it can be your best friend or your worst enemy, in that it is your subconscious mind which ultimately controls the way in which you live your life. Perhaps you are wondering what exactly is a subconscious mind, and why it's essential for people to pay close attention to what the subconscious mind is thinking?

Even though many professionals have tried to convince us otherwise, the vast majority of people acknowledge the fact that they have a subconscious mind, and that it is literally a mind within a mind. As such, one could compare it to a control board, in that it is able to direct us to carry out certain actions and to think certain thoughts. You could also view it as being that voice inside your head that you hear when you're in times of trouble. Of course, each person's subconscious mind communicates with them differently from the next. In other words, no two people have the same sort of subconscious mind even if they have been together since birth, and even if they grew up under the exact same conditions. In fact, not even identical twins have the same subconscious mind as each other.

If you take a minute to think about it, you'll realize that you've often heard your inner mind communicating with you. For example, you could have been on the brink of making an extremely important decision when something in your mind told you to back off. Hopefully, if you did back off, it was the right thing to do. Unfortunately though, that self same inner voice can also be a hindrance, in that it can often tell you that you cannot do something, when in fact there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to. It could for example manage to convince you that you're simply not good enough, or that you're not very attractive. As such, we can see that the subconscious mind is in essence what you think of yourself deep down.

Of course if those thoughts emanating from your subconscious mind are filled with negativity, then there's every chance you'll lead an unhappy life. Fortunately however, you don't need to resign yourself to a negative subconscious mind because it is possible to change the way you think about yourself.

In order to achieve this, many people rely on affirmations so that they can change the way they think. Affirmations are essentially positive statements which one can repeat to oneself several times each day. Unlike subliminal messaging scripts, affirmations don't require you to spend any money, simply because you can do it yourself at home. The first step you need to take is to start thinking about which aspect of your life you would like to change, and then you can follow up by thinking about yourself.

If for example you with would like to get fit, then instead of focusing on the fact that you're out of shape, you should focus on how good it feels to be in shape. You need to write something along these lines down on a piece of paper which you can carry around with you in case you start doubting yourself. In order for this method to have maximum affect, you should even go as far as pasting a note of it in various parts of your home so that you see it as often as possible. The aim is for you to repeat this to yourself as much as possible each day so that your subconscious eventually comes around to your way of thinking.

In this sort of scenario, you would soon begin smoking less and less until you reached that point where you were able to kick the habit altogether. Of course, this is just one example but the same approach can be applied to any aspect of your life.

In case you're wondering if your subconscious mind really does have an impact on your life, let's look at the following scenario. You have an important meeting in the morning but unfortunately you forget to set your alarm. You wake up late and immediately begin panicking, and as a result, you soon start believing that the day is not going to go your way. To make matters worse, when you get into your car, you discover the battery is flat and that the car won't start. After getting someone to help you, you set off on your way but you end up getting caught in the traffic. Even when you do eventually make it to the meeting, everything seems to go wrong. By now you firmly believe that your day cannot get any worse than it's already is but the bad news is that it continues throughout the rest of the day.

Of course the vast majority of people will blame this all on coincidence, but believe me, there is no such thing as coincidence. In fact there's a reason for everything that happens, and when you have this sort of day the reason is usually your subconscious mind.

In recent times books such as 'The Secret' have tried extremely hard to explain this phenomena in scientific terms which is why it is now known as the 'Law of Attraction', which states that a person's subconscious mind not only responds and reacts to real life situations, but that it actually plays a part in creating such situations.

Even though some people may consider this to sound a little crazy, quantum physics is however in agreement with this theory. In fact, it has already been proven that matter is linked intrinsically to the mind of the observer. Interestingly enough, many religions have been preaching this long before science came along and proved it.

Obviously, if we create our own reality with us subconscious mind, then we can buy all accounts choose what sort of reality we wish to experience. Using nothing more than affirmations, some of the wealthiest people in history have managed to accumulate vast amounts of money. This is because they continuously and consistently believed that they were becoming rich.

These are all question that are coming into your mind. Relax! Take a deep breath! You have nothing to fear about. Just think that you will have the best date of your life and believe in yourself.

The first thing that you have to do in order to make sure that you are going to have an awesome date is to find out if your date is really interested in your. Send him/her an email or phone him/her and make an invitation to a coffee or brunch. Don't ask your date directly if he/she is interested in you.

How you can make sure that you will pick the right place? Well, when it comes about this detail you have to know that there are many options available.

Some Tips For How To Build Self Confidence

By Barbara Davis

Whoever you are, you have probably struggled at some point in your life with feelings of inadequacy or low self esteem. Sometimes this happens as a result of our childhood. We may have internalized, because of adults or peers in our lives, the idea that we were somehow unworthy. Sometimes, low self esteem comes later in life as the result of a broken relationship or the loss of a job. Sometimes we feel stifled by our lack of money or our station in life. No matter what caused our feelings, all of us could, at some point, use some ideas of how to build self confidence.

People often feel that their own emotions are beyond their control. If you feel bad because of outside people or events, you might think that the solution to your bad feelings can only come from the outside as well. That is simply not true. You can do many things to raise your own confidence level and improve your state of mind. Here are some places to start.

Exercise

I cannot stress enough what a huge difference exercise can make in your state of mind. Even if you only work in a couple of workouts a week, you will notice changes. And if you manage thirty minutes to an hour three or four times a week, it could be revolutionary. Exercise makes your body feel wonderful. The more you work out, the easier the workouts become, and the more you can do. Your increased strength will make you feel confident and powerful.

Pinpoint Something You Do Well.

We often make the mistake of focusing only on the things we wish we could do, and ignoring the things we can do. I don;t care who you are, there is something that comes naturally to you, something you do well without having to struggle too hard. Some people can sing. Some people can cook. Some people can write. If you find this thing, and work on it, you will experience the joy of accomplishing something easily. That joy can channel itself into energy that can help you with things that are more challenging.

Take Pride In the Way You Look

For many people, depression leads to the neglect of hygiene, grooming and appearance. Depressed people often feel that they lack the energy to make themselves look good. The problem is, this only increases our feelings of unworthiness. If you don't like your own appearance, then you have no reason to believe that others will like it. Looking in the mirror and being disappointed with what you see only exacerbates low self esteem. Take the time to take care of yourself. Wear colors that make you happy. Treat your appearance as a work of art, and you will be pleasantly surprised each time you pass a store window or mirror.

We all wonder how to build self confidence. Making changes in our lives can certainly help, but one of the best ways is to work with what you have. You, as you are, are already good enough. So, as the old saying goes, "get in where you fit in." Loving yourself as you are will lead to positive change.

Take Your Business Public: Transform Your Company Overnight!

By James Scott

A Corporate Consultants Value Is In His Contact Base: Transform Your Company Overnight! If you're seeking the services of a consultant you're most likely in need of corporate structuring or a strategic company turnaround for a capital raise or to go public. Hiring the right consultant is crucial if you are going to succeed with your venture.

Your consultant should, obviously, have the knowhow and track record for succeeding in fine tuning companies to cater to what industry investors are seeking but they must also possess the contact base to streamline the process so that you don't lose time to gain that stealthy edge over your competitors who are attempting to do the same thing.

Your consultant should maintain an active database that acts as his 'special forces' munitions arsenal of 10,000's of real, viable contacts in scores of industries so that he can assist you in even the most mundane, minute aspects of your strategy with solid corporate alliances and contacts that will make your venture stand out like a beacon of light in your industry that beams its florescent light in the windows of potential clients, partners, contractors and anyone else that can assist your company in achieving its desired ambitions. Your consultant will structure and categorize parts of your company that you didn't even know existed yet are crucial to its development.

The reality is that you should have a separate group of strategic partners for every individual product and ever individual service that your company offers. For example, when I consult with companies that have, say, 10 products, my goal would be five to seven strategic partners per product for a range of fifty to seventy strategic partners that my client will work with for co-op advertising and marketing efforts, branding strategies and sales initiatives. Most companies don't even consider this aspect to their business but it is absolutely vital.

When you find a consultant or corporate strategist that you are ready to hire, after you have thoroughly evaluated them, have an in-depth conversation about their ideas for strategic partners and how they intend on facilitating this process to help you achieve your goals.

Healthy Options With Computer Usage

By Phillip Nomadic

Do computers really make us fat? I guess that really depends on the individual using the computer. As you see, computers are just machines that are made to make our daily chores easier than the usual. They cannot tell us to stand up and exercise after a few hours of sitting down in front of the computer. That is basically our responsibility as a responsible human being.


The computer's function and job is to make sure that we can conveniently do the things that we need to do virtually such as send out emails to any part of the world as long as there is an internet access, to search for any information that we need to make us more knowledgeable or to do our online shopping if we are too busy to do it by ourselves.


It is not the computer's responsibility to tell us that we happen to be getting fatter each and every day that sit in front of the laptop being so motionless and completely immobile. Our body starts off to slouch and relax a bunch of that a tiny exercise will trigger rapid beating of the heart due to the fact our heart is no a bit longer utilized to beating generally after a minor movement of the whole body. It is what we call exercise.


Not a lot of men and women love to do it and they would rather sit in front of their particular computer watching movies, playing endless RPG's, browsing via the world wide web for products to acquire or only playing poker which has a friend from another country. Websites is truly magnificent if you ever would certainly think of the huge benefits that each just one of us is getting. Nevertheless, there are also a number of health disadvantages that our computer and internet will be able to provide us if we do not deal with the dilemma with the right solution.


The solution I am referring to is by starting to become a responsible computer owner and user. Just like with everything, moderation is the key. Too much of something is bad just as having too little of something is just as tough because you need to maintain a balanced lifestyle. You can never have too much of something as it will do you no good. That is the balance of nature and it has always been a rule. Regardless of what we are doing, we need to keep it well-balanced to make sure that it will be beneficial to us. Education is the key and all I can say is without the proper knowledge, we will never have the power to change the things that we got used to.


We get fat because we allow it to happen. We become unhealthy because we choose to be. There is always a choice and the only thing that keeps us away from the bad things is by choosing the right choice for us. We can never blame something that runs on electricity because in the long run, we run our own lives and there is nobody else to blame but ourselves. If you would ask me again if computers make us fat, I would still tell you that it may and it may not. It's your choice.

Understanding Hypnosis And Its Impact On Your Life

By Anaya Jones

Hypnosis is a process by which an alternate state of consciousness is achieved without making use of any external chemicals or psychotropic substances. Hypnosis, as is commonly understood, is a state exemplified by complete comfort and one where the person demonstrates a heightened responsiveness towards suggestions. This idea has led to many uses of hypnosis, of which hypnotherapy is the most important.

In hypnotherapy, a person is hypnotized for the specific aim of treating his ailments. The treatment usually aims to eradicate negative thoughts from the person's mind.

A good hypnotist is also a good psychologist, with a deep knowledge of the human brain. Thus, a hypnotherapist would know the real reasons that might be preventing a person's growth and removing such roadblocks with positive thoughts could give a huge respite to the person.

Evidence shows that a big number of addictions find an excellent remedy in hypnotherapy. High levels of anxiety, pain, despair, and low levels of self-esteem also find their remedy in hypnotherapy. Childhood problems and their after-effects like frequent bed-wetting and recurring nightmares can be remedied through it as well.

Hypnotherapy not only helps in personal problems but also in eradicating inhibitions at the workplace and hence it helps you improve your effectiveness at work. There are various examples of people from all walks of life who have gained from it immensely. The process will find out and substitute your fears of failure with confidence and clear thoughts. Personality change through hypnotherapy has been achieved by famous politicians and businessmen who have come out as highly successful individuals with better oratorical and communicative skills.

Self-hypnosis is another important facet of hypnosis. It helps a person to make a trip to self realisation and treats all his depressing thinking, putting him on the path of deserved achievements. It is also a great way to unwind and can be done regularly as a form of mental exercise. A hypnotic session lasting a single hour is equivalent to 8 short naps, thus hypnosis is also a good way to reinvigorate your cerebral batteries and feel energized.

Hypnosis is commonly mistaken for something supernatural, but that is not true at all. It is more focussed on science and psychology than on anything else. Moreover, it is an extremely safe cure because harmful substances are used in the process. Everyone can enjoy the life-altering benefits of hypnotherapy, regardless of what his or her age is.

Most companies who are on the venture capital trail are not set up properly to attract investors. When an investor looks at your business plan and private placement memorandum they are looking for certain things. Of course funding sources look for the obvious, a solid business model, positive cash flow, industry genre with solid future growth, recession proof business (if there even is such a thing) and minimal debt.

Countless companies are turned down for funding because they lack the basics such as: an advisory board, board of directors, solid executive staff with a well groomed pedigree, reasonable share price, business plan and PPM that spell out the risks for the investor and an original marketing strategy that covers all the angles. These are just a few of the most common mistakes that companies make out of naivety and by not taking the time to hire an expert to properly structure them to make the entity appeal to investors.

Seasoned expansion and turn-around consultants can step into a company and immediately zone in on the issues that will hinder a client's investment magnetism. Often times it only takes 2 to 3 weeks to completely reorganize a company to make it stand out like a beacon in the turbulent finance industry. If you are seriously considering the idea of raising capital with a private placement memorandum, traditional institutional loans, venture capital or a public offering don't be penny wise and dollar foolish.

Spend some money and hire a consultant who is completely submerged in the finance industry to take control of the elements of your corporation that are seen as 'black eyes' to investors so that you can achieve the capital you're seeking.

The reality is, raising capital for your company is easy and straight forward if you've taken the time to examine your business objectively and sought out the expert analysis of an industry expert consultant who will run your company through a formula and make the necessary changes to increase your ability to raise capital.

Using The Clairvoyant Powers You Already Have

By Gina Eastman

Clairvoyant powers have been shrouded in mystery for a long time and that is really no surprise. The special gift that clairvoyants have been given often confuses and can even scare people that possess no paranormal powers. Why is this? This is because clairvoyants have the knowledge of things that are unknown. People without these powers will often resent the ability clairvoyants have to look into the future, present, and past.

Specifically, clairvoyant powers refer to the ability to see beyond what can be perceived by the five basic senses. This extrasensory perception gives a clairvoyant person second sight, the ability to see people, events and objects that are beyond the happenings of the natural world, giving them the ability to know what will happen before it happens. Those who have truly harnessed their powers can even look backwards, this is known as retrocognition.

Clairvoyance has long been included in human history. It is not uncommon these days for psychics to give readings to individuals to help them solve some of life's problems or to determine the right career path, or to find their one true love. Fortunately, there is no longer the inclination to be fearful or jealous of individuals with clairvoyant powers. Everyone has the ability at birth to become clairvoyant, but they must be willing to develop the powers they possess.

If you are ready to tap into your source of power and develop your clairvoyant abilities you need to clear your psyche. The best way to accomplish this is with meditation. Clairvoyants release a great deal of negative feelings, energies, and thoughts that seem to separate them from others. These thoughts and feelings can clog your internal sensors and can prevent you from seeing the truth.

With consistent meditation, you will begin to sense and feel the strength within yourself which will allow you to reach your full potential. Always reject the negative feelings and embrace those that are positive. Once you learn to meditate and release your stress, you will see that you become happier and more creative.

Your meditation sessions should occur every day for at least 30 minutes at a time. It is important to choose a quiet place that has no distractions. Also, take care to choose a place that is free from negative energy. Some who are learning to open up to their potential may choose to meditate outside, allowing nature and the universe to help them release negative energies.

Take notice of your feelings as you meditate and use deep breaths to release the negative energies. This will help you become aware of any changes and natural vibrations that take place in the world. This is a skill that clairvoyant's use to feel or see events before they actually take place.

You should also try to think like a child. It is a little known fact that all children are clairvoyant before logic and age tell them that such ideas do not exist. Learn to free your mind to pursue thoughts and ideas that you have always shut off before. Release your inhibitions and let all fear go, allow yourself to connect with the universe around you and realize that everything and everyone is connected.

In order to harness your new found energy and use to further hone your clairvoyant powers, purchase some tarot cards. Both tarot cards and palmistry require the person receiving a reading to physically participate resulting in a more accurate reading and allowing you to better interpret the symbols that are appearing to you.

Start practicing your newly discovered powers by giving free clairvoyant readings. As you continue to meditate, you will begin to see the auras that surround people. Making you more intone with will happen in their lives and making you see deeper, enhancing your ability to perceive not only the present and future but also the past, the most difficult of clairvoyant powers to harness.

One of the least talked about areas of clairvoyance is the ability to talk to the dead. To develop this ability you will have to release your fears of seeing or interacting with ghosts. Though it may seem scary or odd to interact with a dead being there is no risk of harm or injury to you. Your clairvoyant powers have just progressed to the point where you can see and hear those who are closed off from those with undeveloped senses.

As you travel this journey you will see that clairvoyance is a natural talent that can be possessed by anybody that takes the time to develop it. Look deep into your internal system to learn to change not only your life, but the life of others by developing your natural clairvoyant powers.

Cosmic Ordering And Its Effect On Your Life

Today people have become more and more aware are trying different ways to lead a more fulfilled life. A lot of alternatives are available these days to allow you to make your dreams come true, however nothing compares to cosmic ordering.

Cosmic ordering can be simply described as a different kind of spiritual practice which helps you to attain all that you want from the universe. It can be likened to an ordering service where you order your heart's desire and you will get it. However, though this is a spiritual process, you don't need to be a saint or be a complete philanthropist or something as good as that to use it. Goodness does count and help. However this method works as well for regular people.

When you are able to spiritually manifest your goals and dreams, then it's known as cosmic ordering. All you need to do is ask for what you want from the universe or just state your ambition. It can be something as easy as getting a new pen to some thing as big as wanting to be a millionaire. You don't have to know how it will happen, whether it will happen by changing your life or conditions.

Dr. Deepak Chopra and Dr. Wayne Dyer believe that to manifest your order with the universe, you need to be in something known as the 'field of intent'. This is nothing but an invisible energy field which aids and catalyses the connection between the spirit and the universe and helps in manifesting our desires.

Though you may not know is as cosmic ordering, you definitely would have used it in the past. You may have wanted something badly at sometime and you got it. Its not coincidence, it's just that you unknowingly placed an order with the universe which was delivered.

To use cosmic ordering, you need to have the right kind of intention. Intention is nothing but a mix of our desires and faith which makes us believe that we deserve the best in life and that this faith can help us in creating a better life for ourselves. The cosmos only accepts your orders when you really want something badly and believe that you are worthy of receiving it.

There are many people who may say that they want a new house or a coveted promotion or job. However, deep inside consciously or subconsciously they may not believe that they worked hard to get their wishes or that they deserved it. For this to work, you need to believe that you deserve what you are asking for.

Its one of the most straightforward and easy processes in the world and it can help you to completely change your life. The only problem here is that if you believe and focus on the bad or the negative instead of positive, then cosmic ordering may manifest the negative as well.

For instance if you think that your boss is out to fire you and believe it, then you will end up getting fired one day. Hence if you don't want the negative, than think and just concentrate on all the positive things you want to manifest.

Many people who have been trapped in bad conditions and think that they don't deserve happiness or the good things of life don't really realize the truth and hence it is almost next to impossible for them to learn to manifest the good things.

Your subconscious mind can also become your biggest enemy and hindrance in manifesting the things that you desire because the beliefs fed into it for years may not allow it to believe in the cosmic ordering service.

To really be successful in ordering what you need from the cosmos, you need to prepare your subconscious mind to believe that you are worthy of being happy and getting what you want. It's not a tough thing to change the beliefs and innermost thoughts of your subconscious. There are various tools like meditation, affirmations and hypnosis which can change that

Since the time this secret has been revealed, millions of people have actually used cosmic ordering to make their lives fun and have everything that they ever wanted. Now it's your turn to get what you want through cosmic ordering.

MCSA Networking Courses Insights

The Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator course is an ideal qualification for all those considering becoming a supporter of networks. So if you're already experienced but want to add to that with a recognised qualification, or you're new to the IT industry, you'll have the ability to choose a program to help you.

If you're thinking of moving into the world of IT for the 1st time, it's likely you'll have to learn a few things prior to having a go at the 4 MCP exams needed to achieve MCSA certification. Find a provider that can tailor your studying to help you - try to talk this through with an industry expert to analyse your best course of action.

We'd all like to believe that our careers will remain safe and our work futures are protected, but the likely scenario for the majority of jobs in England right now seems to be that there is no security anymore.

But a quickly growing market-place, where staff are in constant demand (due to a growing shortfall of fully trained people), opens the possibility of lasting job security.

Looking at the IT sector, a recent e-Skills analysis highlighted a 26 percent skills deficit. Quite simply, we can only fill just 3 out of every 4 jobs in the computer industry.

Attaining in-depth commercial IT accreditation is thus an effective route to a long-lasting and pleasing line of work.

Undoubtedly, now really is the very best time to consider retraining into the computing industry.

The right sort of training program will undoubtedly incorporate accredited exam preparation systems.

Students regularly can find themselves confused by trying to prepare themselves with questions that aren't recognised by authorised sources. Often, the phraseology can be completely unlike un-authorised versions and you need to be ready for this.

Why don't you verify your depth of understanding through tests and mock ups of exams to prepare you for taking the actual exam.

Students often end up having issues because of one aspect of their training usually not even thought about: The way the training is divided into chunks and packaged off through the post.

A release of your materials piece by piece, according to your exam schedule is the usual method of releasing your program. While sounding logical, you should consider these factors:

Many students find that the trainer's usual training route isn't as suitable as another. They might find varying the order of study will be far more suitable. Could it cause problems if you don't get everything done in the allotted time?

To avoid any potential future issues, most students now choose to request that all their modules (now paid for) are delivered immediately, and not in stages. It's then your own choice in what order and how fast or slow you want to go.

A ridiculously large number of organisations are all about the certification, and completely avoid why you're doing this - getting yourself a new job or career. Your focus should start with the end goal - don't get hung-up on the training vehicle.

It's a testament to the marketing skills of the big companies, but a great many students kick-off study that often sounds spectacular in the syllabus guide, but which gets us a career that is of no interest at all. Talk to many college graduates for examples.

Never let your focus stray from what you want to achieve, and build your study action-plan from that - don't do it back-to-front. Stay focused on the end-goal and study for a career you'll enjoy for years to come.

All students are advised to talk with highly experienced advisors before following a particular training programme. This gives some measure of assurance that it features what is required for that career path.

Reinvigorate Yourself With The Help Of Spa Massage

The world we live in is rather stressful. It demands us to juggle a set of things all at the same time. Deadlines are wailing like a banshee. Stress level is at its highest point. Where to go? Indulge in a spa!

A visit to a spa proves to be a blissful time for most individuals particularly after having gratifying and relaxing spa treatments. Top on the list - a spa massage!

There's no denying of the benefits of a massage as evident throughout the course of history. Treating yourself to a spa massage helps you discharge tension that's been filing up in your system for quite some time already.

As reports would have it, a spa massage, or rather merely a massage, returns good outcomes on patients. For instance, it intensifies relaxation and trims stress through the manipulation of muscles by giving force on the tensed muscles. It tones body muscles and boosts blood circulation.

As spas are required to have licensed and well-trained therapists, visiting a spa massage is said to be a better option to have the full benefits of a massage. By putting the appropriate force and aiming the strained areas of the body, the flow of lymph is raised, thus improving the body's ability to fight against diseases.

Spa massages almost always employ the use of essential oils. Essential oils promote the curing of physical, psychological, and aesthetic ailments. Moreover, aromatherapy essential oils rejuvenate serenity of mind as it arouses the olfactory senses. In the process, you acquire a better and clearer view on things as spa massages encourage the release of endorphins - brain chemicals known as natural pain and stress fighters. Furthermore, the endorphin secretion gives the patient a feeling of euphoria.

So, go pamper yourself and have a nice spa massage and come out feeling more freshened up, relaxed, and revived.

Improve the Look of Your Abs With Proven Abdominal Exercises

Your abdominal muscles can be worked on a regular basis, improving their tone. By working your abs on a daily basis, you build muscle and core strength. Many individuals try to improve their abs through diet alone. However, a steady balance of the rightdiet and consistent exercise can bring lasting change to any mid section or stomach.

One of the best ways to reduce fat around your mid section is through a balance of both nutrition and exercise. Diet alone is not effective because in the process you may loose both fat and muscle. In fact, some diets candestroy existing muscle and therefore must not be done in isolation. Exercise, both muscle building and aerobic are essential for long-term change.

The best type of exercise is cardio, increasing your heart rate for a sustained period of time. This is one of the most effective ways to lose body fat. A lot of people believe that it has more to do with calories in and calories out. But that is only partially true. By working your body for a long period, the body is forced to use fat stores versus food and muscle alone.

To exercise effectively, start by finding an aerobic activity that you enjoy. If you like to jog for example, begin slowly and work you way up. Once you've been able to carry out your activity for thirty minutes or more, the next step is tochange up your routine. By creating variety you continue to confuse muscle groups and require your body to work deep into your fat stores each and every time you exercise.

After you've developed a work-out routine that is easy to follow, it's time to combine that with abdominal exercises that can reshape your muscles. As noted in previous articles, I'm a big fan of abdominal exercises that use a full range of motion.Raising your legs to your chest, while sitting on the floor or hanging from a bar is a good example. Other full range exercises work the abs from many angles and deep into your core.

Exercises that stress the ab muscles and work them from many angles quickly reshape them and improve strength. When working your abs, focus your motion on your mid-section. I know that sounds like common sense, but you'd be surprised how easily you can over compensate and use other muscles to finish your repetitions. Always focus on maintaining your proper form.

To fully develop your exercise routine, make sure that you are consuming a diet high in complex carbohydrates and protein. You want to feed your muscles and starve the fat. The best way to do so isby limiting your intake of fatty foods and sugars. Focus on good proteins, complex carbs and fiber.

Anyone trying to develop strong abdominal muscles must first begin with a clear goal of what they want to achieve. A strong set of abs requires attention to both diet, exercise, and abdominal routines. Focus on aerobic exercise that can reduce your overall body fat percentage. Add a nutritional diet that can keep your energy high and ab exercises that work both your upper and lower abs. This is the best way to get results.

Taking A Look At Mental Telepathy

The term 'mental telepathy' is misleadingly broad. It essentially means the direct communication of thoughts between people without using the basic five senses. There is a huge difference, however, between having a creepy feeling that someone is watching you and being able to pick the plans for a nuclear reactor out of an unsuspecting scientist's mind. Mental telepathy covers a huge range of abilities from very basic to fairly complex. This article will attempt to explain the different levels of mental telepathy.

KINESICS COMMUNICATION:

Kinesics, or non-verbal communication, occurs whenever two people communicate without speaking, using their eyes, body language, and facial expressions instead. This can range from simple messages like 'go away' to entire conversations. Any parent who has tried to communicate something to their spouse that they don't want their children to hear has experienced this. Non-verbal communication is achieved easiest and most accurately between people who know each other well"siblings, parents and children, husbands and wives, and close friends.

Most people do not regard this form of communication as mental telepathy since here communication is through senses and not just with sounds. Theoretically, this argument holds good. However, we cannot disregard the role of mental telepathy here. The very observation that this kind of non verbal communication is most effective in people who are intimate with each other or know each other well tells us that the minds of these people are more in synch with each other. However, skeptics may argue that this communication is merely effective because people who know each other well understand each other's body language well or have previously developed a mode of non verbal communication.

EMOTIONAL TELEPATHY:

Empathy is the ability to recognize, perceive, or directly experience the emotions of others. Some people are very poor at this, and others are very good at this, being able to mentally 'put themselves in another's shoes' and understand how they must be feeling. Empathy can be increased with training and practice. Actors, for example, are able to imitate the emotions of others, even to the point of being able to make themselves spontaneously laugh or cry.

Most people have experienced 'sympathetic pain'"feeling another person's pain as if it were your own. For example, after witnessing someone close to you break their arm, you may experience an uncomfortable feeling or even an ache in your arm, even though you know it's fine. Similarly, when someone close to you is experiencing an overwhelming emotion, such as joy, grief, or depression, you may feel an echo of the same emotion inside you. Finally, there is the phenomena of long distance empathy. In this case, a person suddenly knows"they FEEL it"that someone close to them is in danger, has been hurt, or is in pain, even though they are not near the person at the time.

Overactive imagination has been blamed by some psychologists and they feel other senses are being used, so it doesn't count as mental telepathy. How would you explain the phenomena of long-distance empathy, when you are not in proximity to the person? This might explain the feelings experienced if you have sympathetic pain after seeing your child break his arm, however.

CONCRETE CONCEPTS:

There is another kind of telepathy which involves sending and receiving concrete symbols and objects between two people. Here advanced mental telepathy is involved and it is a phenomena outside the five senses. This kind of mental telepathy involves a lot of training, concentration and practice. There is a receiver and a sender involved in this.

The simpler the concept, the easier it is to communicate through thought alone. For example, a color or shape may be easier to convey than an animal.

This level involves a lot of trials in telepathy. In these experiments Zener cards are used. These cards have simple symbols engraved on them like black and white patterns, squares, circles, waves etc. There are many cynics and doubters who may say that since there are merely five cards involved, there is a probability of a guess being right at least 20% of the time. However, on the other end, people feel that having known symbols can enhance the thought coordination between the sender and the receiver thus enhancing their telepathic technique. Moreover even if we assume that random guesses may succeed 20% of them time, there is no explanation of success rate of 50% or more.

ABSTRACT CONCEPTS:

Mental telepathy at this level goes beyond simple colors and shapes to more abstract concepts like ideas, actions, or values. It is rare and difficult for telepaths to achieve this level, and experiments have shown that they have a lower success rate.

Interestingly there are certain animals which can communicate effectively and we have still not discovered their modus operandi. Telepathy may be one of the methods. In this kind of communication between animals very basic abstract concepts will be involved. Since animals do not have prefrontal lobes which enhance complex communication, this communication will be restricted to basic impulses like thirst hunger and even danger.

While humans may have once been capable of telepathy, as the species evolved and developed language, it was no longer needed as a form of communication. With the right stimulation humans may be able to call upon this dormant ability that includes abstract communication of ideas. Mental telepathy could be used to communicate, without the need for the use of the five senses.

However, there are some who feel that man may be able to develop ESP and telepathy and such psychic abilities in the near future. As man's psychic powers grow it may be possible for the entire race to become telepathic in the future.

Does Past Life Hypnosis Really Work?

If you are a person who is interested in matters related to the soul and spirit, you will discover that past life hypnosis may be something you want to look into further.

There are many different religions and philosophies out there that believe that the lives that we lead right now are not the only ones that we will have, and there is also a belief in the fact that we have lived a past life or lives and will continue to do so.

Some people have seen images of the lives that they have led in the past, and others say that they can remember whole parts of their previous lives.

One belief that many people have is that the memories of these past lives are locked within us, and that they can have a lot to tell us about the people we are and the needs that we have in this life.

Other philosophies explain that we should not be able to remember these past lives, and if you can, it is an indication of problems that should be looked into. Take the time to think about how you feel about these philosophies.

Do you wonder why you have thoughts that are not yours, or do you ever remember incidents that have never happened to you? This might be your imagination working overtime, nonetheless, there are things that feel rather real and are not easy to dismiss.

This can be where past life hypnosis comes in. Through the help of an accredited past life hypnotist, you will go into a deeply suggestible state where you will be more open to your subconscious and the things that it is trying to tell you.

Issues that were half buried can rapidly come to the surface and you will as well see that you can remember things more clearly and with a more definite degree of completeness. You may be able to remember the theme of your previous life, or even many of its details, depending on how clear your memory of certain facts is. Some individuals see that they can even recognize people from a previous life who are now even in their current lives.

The question is why would people want to try past life hypnosis? For some people, past life hypnosis is something that is a curiosity. They wish to know if they are imagining the incidents that their brain is showing them, or if they are indeed imagining it all.

Past lives also teach a good lesson to some people. They remind them to be more compassionate, or to live life for all its worth, or to show respect for people. There are lessons that are being hinted at, and the more clearly they can be heard, the better!

If you are curious and want to know more about a past life, or you wanting to discover the lessons that you need reminding of, then make the effort to think about how past life hypnosis can be of help to you!

Kenneth Copeland Ministry: Proclaiming Jesus Is Lord!

Kenneth Copeland Ministry (KCM) is perhaps one of the biggest ministries today, with work spanning from the United States, Australia, Africa, Europe, Canada, and Asia Pacific. Established in 1967, it continues to proclaim the message "Jesus Is Lord" through various ministries all over the world, focusing on faith, love, healing, prosperity, and restoration.

A series of simple yet life-altering events led to the conversion of its founder. He was still then starting out as a new music artist, with his record "Pledge of Love" that hit the charts and peaked at Billboard #12. He even appeared in several music magazines.

However, he felt that God had something else in mind for him. His wife, Gloria, found a Bible that was given to him by his mother. She sat down to read it and prayed for God to take control of their lives. He then gave up his singing career and moved to Oklahoma to study at Oral Roberts University in 1967. Kenneth was part of the flight crew attending Oral Robert's tent meetings and crusades. After learning so much, he then moved to start his own ministry. He created and released the "Believers Voice of Victory" on television in 1979. His ministry then grew from such humble beginnings.

As the followers of KCM grew, they started to explore and serve in other ministries as well. One of which is the Prayer Ministry, which prays for over 11,000 people every week. They even make it a point to call about 2,000 people to respond to prayer requests. They also opened a 24-hour prayer line. Another ministry they have is the Prison Ministry. About 52,000 prisoners in Texas and Louisiana receive Bible studies and prayers and are encouraged to have their lives restored through God. Another major ministry is the Kenneth Copeland Ministry Relief Fund, which spearheads donating food, clothing, and financial assistance to victims of calamities. Another unique ministry is the Military Ministry, which serves as a support groups, offering prayer and counseling for families of troops and soldiers. They continue to air their television program, and have even expanded to podcasts and online streaming through their website.

Criticisms and Controversies. The ministry however is not without trials. They faced criticisms on their "World Faith Movement" particularly on Copeland's claim regarding faith healing. They were also criticized for teaching that believers could get a hundredfold return on their giving as they quoted several quoted scripture verses to convince people to donate. The Copelands were also accused of leaving their Affordable Homes Limited in thousands of dollars in debt. However, as they were limited partners, they were not obliged to explain or pay the debt.

In 2007 the couple also allegedly used their $20 million Cessna Citation X jet for personal trips with family and friends, and gave Rolls Royces to their pastors. This prompted US Senator Chuck Grassley to ask KCM to divulge financial information. KCM then responded by releasing financial report from Kenneth Copeland Ministry accomplished by an independent firm. They also launched the KCM website, where they explained and answered the allegations hurled at them, particularly on the issue of misuse of financial donations.

KCM still expands in the United States and around the world. Together with daughter Kelly Copeland Swisher and son John Copeland, CEO of KCM, The Eagle Mountain International Church and worldwide partners, the ministry strives to pursue the heritage of proclaiming Jesus is Lord.

Live Better and Enjoy Life More Through Chakra Healing


A chakra is an axis point in the human body that receives, connects to and conveys life force energy. Chakra is a Sanskrit word that means a continuously spinning wheel or sphere of mans aural energy. Although traditional Hindu writings assert that there are more than 88,000 chakra points in the entire human body, the most important of these chakras are the seven energy axis from the base of the spinal column to the top of the head.

Although there is no common denominator between the ancient Hindu and Chinese cultures, they are very similar in their interpretation and explanation about the role of these energy points in our health and lives in general. Both the Hindus and the Chinese look at the bodys major energy points as playing important roles in our conscious and subconscious experiences. And that these seven energy points are the keys to a healthy and successful life.

Chakras are defined in various ways but there is one common thread among all of the definitions and explanations whether from the Chinese medicine point of view, the Hindus mystical understanding of an individuals internal and external experience or modern psychologys explanation of human our consciousness and thought processes.

The chakra unceasing interaction with our body and the environment even during our sleep gives them a direct influence over our physical structure and appearance including our bodily processes, health and our emotions. A glitch of any one of the major chakras is an indicator that something is wrong with our physical/emotional health which may directly or indirectly be noticeable.

Since each of the major chakras corresponds to a particular endocrine gland in our body, any variance in their normal function or behavior directly affects our health as well.

Maintaining Chakra Balance Using the above as our starting point, we can then safely conclude that most of our major illnesses and ailments are chakra related. Although there may not be enough physical manifestations of the illness or imbalance (yet) there may be emotions and concerns from way back our childhood that affect us today physically, spiritually or emotionally.

These factors could be anything ranging from repressed traumatic incidents during early childhood to wrong diet, unhealthy lifestyle and the like. One thing is certain, and that is we have to remove these physical or emotional toxins from our bodies because they affect us greatly.

Chakra Healing is Good for Our Body We can directly influence our chakras and their functions and through them our health and lives by employing techniques such as Reiki healing, aromatherapy, color therapy, chakra balancing with the aid of a pendulum, crystals or gemstones.

There are a number of ways through which we can directly influence the functions of our bodys major chakras. From simple techniques such as aromatherapy, breathing exercises, physical fitness, or with the use of crystals and gemstones we can achieve balance and harmony.

For example, the practice of Yoga and directed meditation are but two of the commonly used healing methods to align and enhance our energy points in order for us to achieve total relaxation and concentration regardless of where we are. This is very helpful in relieving stress and enhances the bodys natural healing processes.

Despite the fact that we can see or touch our energy points, aside from the above there are other ways that we can keep them healthy in order for them to better support our body.

Since our diet affects our body and our system, they also affect the stability and synchronization of our major energy points. The food we eat can either make them work better, slowly or not at all!

Root-type vegetables, protein-rich foods and spices nourish our root chakra. The sexual and creativity (sacral) chakra needs sweet fruits, nuts and cinnamon, vanilla, sesame and caraway seeds; the stomach/solar plexus chakra which is responsible for enhancing our self-confidence and self-love are can be nourished by eating breads, pastas, cereal, dairy products, yogurt and minty spices.

Green, leafy vegetables, plenty of liquid, fruit juices and green tea are beneficial for our heart and throat chakras.

On the other hand, our third eye chakra is get nourishment when we eat blueberries and grapes and drink wine or grape juice. It is equally important to nourish this chakra as it makes feelings and senses sharper.

The spiritual and emotional center (our crown chakra) of the human body however does not need nutrients but requires detoxification by means of fasting.

With these simple methods of influencing our bodys energy points (chakras), we are at the same time also influencing our physical wellness towards a more responsive way of life completely with our body and our environment. They are very simple ways but very effective at the same time in order for us to achieve a goal of physical and emotional wellness.

Spirituality Training a New Important Part of American Life

If you like helping people help yourself to a new career. Did you know people spend more than twice as much money on "non-standard" therapy than they do on psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers and ALL other state licensed helping professionals put together? Think of that, TWICE as much. And, online the counseling industry is serving the public more and more frequently.

People prefer to receive help online for a number of different reasons. First, it's much more convenient for both user and therapist. There is no drive to worry about nor is there any bus schedule to keep up. Added confidentiality is another reason people. Because they are online an extra sense of confidentiality is felt. When there is no one to see you drive up, you feel more comfortable sharing your problems without nosy neighbors.

As an online life coach, pastoral counselor or spirituality trainer, you will find the whole the world was a possible client. If you were to set up an office, people would still be embarrassed to come see you. By being online, you provide a better level of confidentiality.

Liking people isn't enough. You will have to earn your wings through training. Just because you like people doesn't mean your a qualified spirituality advisor.

You'll need the right certification or registration to provide advice and counsel within your area. These may be quite stringent, but, luckily there are ways around this, so don't be frustrated.

Education is vital. The Certified Spirit Thinking Facilitator Academy was recently accredited by the APPCA (one of America's oldest accrediting organizations).

Past Life Regression - Future Happiness!

It is said that only 25% of people believe in reincarnation. This of course doesn't mean that it isn't real, haven't you ever discovered that you had a talent or inclination towards something and you had no idea as to why? I am sure that you know what it is I am talking about, there are certain things in our lives that we feel a strong connection to with little to no reason that we can come up with. The answer could simply be that it was something that was important to you in a past life.

Many people, unfortunately, tend to overlook or ignore the possibility and its validity, therefore missing out on an opportunity to expand personally. Maybe even to find out why they are, who they are, today. By ignoring your past life information it would be easy to impede your personal growth and success achievements.

As a matter of fact extensive research has shown that past life regression is a very powerful tool in helping people with emotional problems.

The benefit of clearing and healing of trauma is very common with life regression. When it comes to trauma we have two choices, either face it head on or try to change it. As we talk of confronting trauma or of life regression the option of rescuing the past and helping the individual to continue to move on and bring trauma into a position to be viewed by a higher self, as a whole.

Contacting our creative sides is possible with the help of past life regression. Without exception, everyone is imbued with many talents and abilities which can help with guiding them in making choices and dealing with situations that they experience throughout their life. Going back into past lives with life regression makes it possible to bring these abilities forward to use as a inner guide.

A past life regression can also help you rewrite a past-life contract. Karma is a wonder of a thing it always comes back to us. When it involves another person it can have something to do with a promise or an agreement that we made with that person in a past life. To free yourself from this agreement you can go back to that lifetime where you created the promise originally and you can decide, most often with the help of an Inner Guide, whether or not the is an atonement that can be done or if the contract can be modified to help you with a current situation.

There is also the most significant benefit for going through past life regression and that is grounding and affirming ones self.

People who go back to a past life through past life regression want to feel more grounded and this is not uncommon and they also become more aware of themselves as a person. Its factual that they are now aware why they have some connections, desires, characteristics and talents. This information explains why they have these abilities and enables them to accept the situation, who they are and to live a more balanced life.

Ask the experts in the field of past life regression and they will agree, if a person practices past life regression they can truly improve or enhance their life. You will remember your past lives and begin to live a more complete and fulfilled life in the present practicing past life regression.

You may think your experiencing simple figments or feelings of imagination. However, a catharsis will happen and your mind will open breaking down barriers blocking your achievement abilities and making it possible for you to achieve all you want in life.

To briefly recap the benefits of life regression include dealing with traumatic events from the past so that we can move forward in the present life. By dealing with issues from the past we are better equipped to make better decisions today because we can use the experiences we have had in the past.

If you know the history of your past lives, you can avoid making the same mistakes in the present. Its a worldwide truth and also of your personal life. Knowing if you have been dishonest and have paid the price, this can also help you change your bad (old) habits and improve your present life for the better.

The most important of all the benefits of past life regression though is the fact that you will have a better understanding of who you are today and why you are that person. This means that you can live a more complete and balanced life where you are able to live to your fullest potential, taking advantage of the talents and skills you didnt even know you had.

Reduce Stress By Practicing Meditation or Watching Sunset

1. Practicing Meditation

Do you feel that you are constantly under stress? Are you looking into ways to reduce your stress levels? The world is seemingly becoming faster, more demanding and more pressurized. Meditation can help you to relax and become a happier person.

Stress affects people in different ways. I personally feel very tired and lethargic during these periods and start to worry about things, like a future event. Other people suffer from panic attacks, become very shaky and nervous, feel sick in the stomach or become depressed.

There are many types of meditation. You can meditate by walking, praying, sitting or visualizing. There are also more ritualized forms of meditation, such as yoga and Mandala.

Meditation helps us to control our emotions, to think in a more relaxed and positive way and certainly helps us to think more clearly. Meditating also reduces an accelerated heart rate and lowers blood pressure, both of which will help in reducing feelings of stress.

2. Watching Sunset

Every day starts with sun shedding its light upon us. Planets rotate around the sun. The sun is the reason why trees and plants are able to produce. While we rush through our things, we seldom think about the benefits of being out in the sun. In fact, many of us try to avoid the sun due to media attention on the hazards of over-exposure to the sun.

Get some sunshine into your life. Watching sunsets and sunrises can become inspirational. Artists paint these scenes on canvas. Poets write beautiful verses about them. These scenes are powerful enough to inspire you to forget about your problems and motivate you to stay positive. The best thing about a sunset is that you can enjoy watching one wherever it's convenient for you - a park, the beach, or even your car when you're stuck in traffic. Steal every possible opportunity, because watching sunset calms your mind and relieves you of some stress on your head.

The sun is the main source of life. Without sun there would be continuous darkness, the word "day" won't have existed in our vocabulary, we won't know what a tree is.

So, the next time if you feel like making the sun your enemy, think again. Be thankful and get out there to get some sun on your face. Let the sun burn up your stress.

Making Your Band For Hire

A great way to make a little money and get yourself noticed is to make your band for hire. This can also keep your band from going stale with nothing but rehearsals all the time, and can also let you know what songs work for you and what songs don't. Going out on gigs is also a great way to get a bigger fan base.

You're probably wondering how to get started. The first thing to do is to remember that you're selling a product, and like any good product you need to have the right advertising. To get some basic ideas google 'band for hire' online and see what other bands are offering. What do they charge, where do they play, and are any of them your competition?

Think to yourself who wants a band for hire? Examples include weddings, functions, birthdays, corporate events, pubs and clubs etc. Once you know who your target market is you must now establish how you are going to get your message across to them.

Many bands put up a webpage, or list themselves with facebook or myspace which lets people listen to your music and get a sense of who you are.

Unfortunately a lot of people and organisations do not have access to the internet or the time to access it so you may have to do some ringing around and be prepared to have some brochures or flyers with information on the band and a CD or DVD showing you performing some of your songs.

Don't forget to consider getting your band an agent. While they take a portion of the money you earn, it is their job to get your band gigs, and they won't make money until they do.

When becoming a band for hire, you have to consider whether you are a local band only, or will you go to other cities and states? Being able to travel can give you more opportunities, and more money.

When you're playing gigs, remember that some will pay better than others. Weddings may pay more money than a club, but performing in a club, even for a small amount, might be better for your band. Weddings and birthday parties will also restrict what songs you can play while a club will give you a chance to perform new songs and see how people react to your music.

A good band for hire will always seriously consider traveling further afield, particularly when the money offered is good. It's makes more sense to play to a bigger venue than in a small pub, not only for the better money, but to get your music heard by more people and to get your band known.

Celebrities Understand Advanced Cosmic Ordering

Many celebrities have admitted that much of their success is down to 'cosmic ordering', but what is it?

Many people know this as 'the law of attraction' but cosmic ordering is far more specific than this.

Imagine for a minute that you have at your disposal a cosmic ordering service. All you need to do whenever you want something; anything at all si think about it and it will appear before you as if by magic. Amazing, isn't it? Well, the even more amazing thing is that all of us already have access to this service; but most of us don't take advantage of it and continue to ask for more of the same, again and again.

Think of it in this way - you have a menu with an unlimited number of options in front of you, but you only look at the very first line -bread. You keep ordering only this, perhaps feeling that you do not deserve more than this.

Picture yourself wealthy. Picture yourself running, dancing, climbing mountains and driving the most luxurious car. Picture yourself constantly on vacation with a private jet and rooms at only the best of hotels.

You wear the most expensive clothing and look absolutely marvellous. If you can picture this in your mind and hold it for a few minutes, you're partially on your way. It is difficult to get a good picture of yourself in those circumstances if you're like most people. For the majority of people, cosmic ordering seems beyond their reach. So what exactly is advanced cosmic ordering?

Advanced cosmic ordering can get results for those of us who have tried to use cosmic ordering before but didn't get what they wanted. Perhaps you didn't really believe it would happen. You need to reprogram your subconscious mind to eliminate the negative thoughts we are fed from an early age.

The years of negative programming and belief that there's not enough for everyone dilutes and negates all the wonderful images that you put in your mind. Envy for another's success reinforces the fact that you don't have enough.

Thinking that you don't deserve better makes it very hard for you to do better for yourself, even when the opportunity is right there in front of you.

Quantum physics is a scientific field which has opened new possibilities for thinking about the Universe. The rules are different than in the physics you remember from school and can be used a s a way to think about why some are more successful than others.

The brain emits powerful energy that can direct and change the smallest particle known to man, and those we haven't yet discovered. If a quark jumps a level, it is called a quantum leap. Just changing one level affects the structure of the atom and subsequently matter. If you could guide that change, anything is possible.

Most people don't believe that changing your mind changes your circumstances. That's because they tried it once and watched and waited, half-heartedly believing. In the laws of quantum physics, the observer changes what they observe just by watching it. If you watch a process and don't believe it works but continue on out of duty, the process never turns out the way you want. You are the observer and changed what you observed, but not in a positive way.

With instruction and practice, you can use the cosmic ordering system to get what you want; this is something which the ancients knew. The cosmic ordering system is a part of every religion in the form of prayer. But most of us listen to neither what religion or science has to tell us and instead continue to lead unsatisfying lives.

Training your mind to order the best for yourself is the right thing to do but you need help to clear away years of negative and poverty thinking. There are many aids today to speed the process and help you eliminate the failure pattern of the past and make room for the success of today.

Advanced cosmic ordering utilizes the recent developments in sound technology. This technology allows you to simply listen to special sound frequencies known as binaural tones which change your brainwaves to the state required for you to communicate with the universe. This is actually the same state as Buddhist monks meditate at, which usually takes years of training to achieve.

Combined with self-hypnosis and subliminal affirmations, the new technology allows you to clear out the old patterns faster so you see the results at a more rapid pace.

Advanced cosmic ordering works. Once you have mastered it, it is an incredible tool and everything you desire truly can be yours, but it needs just a bit of effort from you as well!
