It contains an English interview-style exchange between two speakers (labeled SPEAKER A and SPEAKER B) discussing self-help topics: empowerment through thought, meditation and self-hypnosis techniques (including a step-by-step capsule for self-hypnosis), nutrition ideas about “light” in fruits and vegetables versus meat, mindset practices (e.g., a “switch buddy”), and the speaker’s books and forthcoming workbook/CDs. The excerpt reads like a recorded interview or Q&A focused on mind–body wellness and practical self-improvement advice.
Chapters
When you think inside your head, when you actually think an empowering thought, that's what gets you results in your life. And we tend to actually think in low-energy thoughts and, you know, all those 150,000 negative commands before we're 7 years old. We need to filter those and clear them out of our head. It's like a big quantum search engine. If I say to you, "No problem," you're going to be searching for problems. So if we can— if you get a switch buddy and actually make sure that switch buddy changes your language so that every time you say a low-energy word, all you have to do is just say, "Switch," and the other person changes, what happens then is you're actually— your actual thought process starts to change and use this part of your brain, the prefrontal cortex, which keeps you optimistic and feeling great. Nutrition is really important. There was a guy called Dr. Pop in the 1980s from Maastricht University, and he did a lot of studies on food and on fruit and vegetables, and what he Reckon was that fruit and vegetables has firsthand light. So when you're eating fruit and vegetables, you're eating light, and the light is stored in your DNA so that when you get sick or when you've got a virus or anything, the light is released from the DNA into the body and it actually works. So people who've got cancer actually have used up all their light. One of his students said to him, "I don't believe this. I'm going to build a machine to prove you wrong." And he said, "Go ahead." And the student actually built a machine to prove him right. P-O-P-P. Dr. Pop. P-O-P-P. No German. University of Marburg in— I think it's Marburg in Germany. What he said was when you eat chicken or when you eat fish or when you eat meat, you're eating secondhand light. So actually fruit and veggies are the best way to actually to get that light into your body. And you go in the supermarket, instead of going in and looking for the fruits and vegetables that are going to do you good, Just look for as many different colors of fruits and veggies as you can. So if you go in and choose 9 different colors, it's much more fun, and it's actually— you'll have all the nutrition on your plate that you need.
And that's where the source of the vitamins is.
Yes, all the vitamins and minerals. Meditation is fabulous. Meditation, hypnosis. They've proven that 20 minutes of hypnosis is equal to 4 hours of sleep. So it's fantastic. It really gives you a boost. Meditation is a state of alpha, which is similar to hypnosis, and that will give you an amazing amount of energy as well.
You suggested self-hypnosis.
Yes.
Could you put that in another capsule for me?
Ah, self-hypnosis. Okay, so quick way to do self-hypnosis. Number 1, you imagine a beautiful light coming down through your head as you would in meditating, relaxing, softening your face, relaxing, softening your body, right through your body and back up again, softening and releasing. And then you say to yourself, I want to go deeper and deeper and deeper. And if you use the word pretend and imagine, your unconscious mind will absolutely take part. So it's, "I'm going to pretend that I'm really, really, really in a deep state of hypnosis or sleep now. I'm going to imagine that I'm really feeling comfortable and relaxed." And your unconscious mind will go ahead and do it straight away.
So this is really mind over body?
Yes, well, all change is unconscious and all learning is unconscious. So it's actually your conscious mind getting out of the way of the true healing that's taking place.
Suggesting to your unconscious mind.
Yeah, you're giving suggestions to your unconscious mind and giving it commands to just get on with it. Maybe healthy. The Secret publishers, the people who publish The Secret are my publisher.
Yeah. Is this your first book?
Second book.
Second book?
Yeah, they found the first book and then I changed it so that it's a lot, there's a lot more stuff in the second one.
I see. Is there a sequel to this?
There is, there's a workbook coming out in December and two success CDs and some action cards as well. So that's coming out this year.
