“polarize” - v: “to break up into opposing factions
or groupings”
If you feel other than joy or peace in your life,
you’re mind is “polarized”. In other words, the
mind believes that you’re separate from what
you want.
When I say “mind” I’m referring to the “ego” mind.
The mind that believes in dualities:
Good and bad
Rich and poor
“me” and “them”
light and dark
…and many others…
The mind typically thinks that it’s in charge and
in doing so, actually causes the very problems
that it tries to solve.
It’s like a dog chasing its own tail - it never
seems to catch it. The mind is seductive and thinks
it’s you - but it doesn’t realize that it’s only part
of you…
So you’re not your problems and you’re not your
past - despite the “evidence” that your mind chooses
to believe…
Until you learn how to calm your mind - false
“evidence” will try to sway you into thinking
that something (or someone) is at fault for
the way you feel (and the results that show
up in your life).
But one thing we’ve discovered in working with
hundreds of clients over 10+ years is “it’s not what
you think”.
Your *mind* thinks it knows the problem, but the *real*
problem lies beneath your conscious awareness.
The mind is the part that created the problem - so it
can’t solve it by itself.
Does this make sense to you?
Your normal awareness is based on filters (beliefs)
and those filters were created at a very young age.
Picture how a filter works - its job is to filter out *what its been told to keep out* (even if its helpful
to your well being).
Countless people have filters of:
“I don’t want to be well”
“I don’t feel safe when I’m loved”
“I don’t deserve wealth and abundance”
“The world is an unsafe place”
And dozens more…
EVEN THOUGH they consciously want health, wealth,
and more love, they un-consciously fear having it!
In order to truly solve a problem, you have to
*transcend* it - in other words rise above the
perceived duality of “problem/solution” - which only
causes more of the same ingrained pattern of trying
to “fix” the problem.
And guess what that causes more of…?
Yep - more of the same…
A reader comments:
>”I can’t seem to find the missing piece of how to remove
>the blocks from their root.
The KEY is that your blocks are UN-conscious - that’s why
you cant’ “find” them. If you knew the TRUE cause of your
issues (the root) - you’d already be free of them.
The root cause is what’s buried beneath your normal
awareness - and when you discover it, it will integrate
(clear itself) naturally and effortlessly.
There are many techniques to clear problems but what
can help you most is the Polarity Discovery (and
Clearing) Process which is part of the new
“Breaking Free of the Money Matrix” Course.
More details on the “Breaking Free of the Money
Matrix” Course are at this link
If you have any questions about the Breaking Free
course, feel free to post a comment on this blog.
Please be specific in your question and I will
respond asap…
I’m thinking of doing a new course that helps people
escape what I call the “Money Matrix” and I’d like your
opinion…
In short, the “Money Matrix” is the unquestioned system
of beliefs, institutions and cultural conditioning that keeps
people enslaved in what I call the “Not Enough” Effect.
And this “Not Enough” Effect is the core of the problem
that stops you from having what you want (and keeps
you stuck in the old cycle over and over again).
It’s also the prime cause that brought down the financial
systems (and its still happening as we speak). As a culture,
If we keep going at the rate we’re going, we’ll self-destruct
under a mountain of debt, fear and greed.
But there’s a simple way out…
I’m not sure If I’m going to do a course yet, because if
I do, I’m going to put my Heart and Soul into it (if you’ve
been through any of my courses before, you know what
I mean).
If I do go ahead with this course, it will help you do three
primary things:
1) Become aware of the deep level of unconscious
conditioning that has been stopping you from creating
the results you’ve been longing for (if you knew the
beliefs that were installed in your subconscious without
your awareness, you’d be shocked)
2) Identify and clear the beliefs that have been holding
you back - so you can choose your own beliefs that
empower and free you
3) Create a completely new level of clarity and understanding
of what creates lasting wealth and abundance and have the
real world practical results that you and your loved ones
deserve.
In other words, this is serious stuff we’re talking about.
And it’s about far more than just money.
In essence, it’s the best of the metaphysical teachings
combined with practical real-world results (but more than
just money or “stuff” - I’m talking about being free of the
attachment to the “stuff” and yet still having plenty
for you and your family (or giving back to humanity).
If I decide to teach it, this course will be unlike anything
I’ve ever taught before (or you’ve ever experienced).
So - I need your opinion…
Should I go ahead and teach this kind of course…?
…and how could this course help you…?
(in other words, what’s going on in your life? And
how could this kind of course that frees you from
the struggle and worries of the “Not Enough” Effect
change your life?)

An incredible video that helps us understand that
we’re not as separate as many once believed.
“We Are All Connected” was made from sampling Carl Sagan’s Cosmos, The History Channel’s Universe series, Richard Feynman’s 1983 interviews, Neil deGrasse Tyson’s cosmic sermon, and Bill Nye’s Eyes of Nye Series, plus added visuals from The Elegant Universe (NOVA), Stephen Hawking’s Universe, Cosmos, the Powers of 10, and more. It is a tribute to great minds of science, intended to spread scientific knowledge and philosophy through the medium of music.
An exceptional video of where we’re going as a culture.
Chris Jordan, artist and visionary helps us wake up and
notice how our individual and collective choices shape
our world.
Corita Kent reminds us, Flowers grow out of dark moments.
We’ve been taught for years to go “chase after” what
we want. This “chasing” takes many forms.
We long for:
A better career
the perfect partner
more love
more education
more motivation
more money
more stuff
What if in this striving for “more”, we’re missing the
very thing(s) we’re looking for the most?
In other words, what if what you want is hiding in plain
sight? Weird concept perhaps - but let’s expand on this
just a bit more…
A part of our brain called the Reticular Activating System
(RAS for short) works in the background 24 hours a day
and does something no other part of does.
It scans your “reality field” for what it’s been programmed
to look for and misses or “filters out” everything else.
And when I say “filters out” everything else, I mean literally
everything that the RAS thinks is “out of bounds”.
One more thing…
The RAS is like a child - it’s been programmed by all the
experiences of your childhood (parents, school, media,
government, freinds, etc).
…and it’s fiercely loyal (it will not budge if you try
make it do something it fears is “wrong” or “unsafe”.)
And depending on what went in during that programming,
the RAS will “filter out” anything it feels will hurt you or goes
against it’s core program of keeping you safe.
It’s like a “prime directive” - like a mother who will do anything
to protect her young ones.
So, in other words, let’s say you’re longing for more love in
your life. But when you were young, you watched your parents
argue or you watched a movie where two people fell in love
but then unconsciously caused each other pain and heartache.
What would a child’s RAS then do?
Yes - it would “filter out” people, situations and similar
experiences that reminded him or her of those childhood
memories.
This may help explain why, despite your best intentions,
why the things you want most seem to elude your grasp.
A part of you is literally filtering it out…
And all the willpower and hard work that you expend
won’t make it happen. (in fact the harder you try, the
more pain you’ll feel)
But there is a simpler way.
What if you could find a way to have the RAS work in your
favor? So that it brings the people, the opportunites,
the love, the money and the energy you long for?
Here’s what I’d like to share with you…
I’ve studied the field of personal growth for over 25 years.
In that time, I’ve seen a lot of programs and methods. Some
work well, others seem to “miss the mark”
But the ones that work have something in common.
They help you find your own wisdom.
I’ve created a program that helps you clear the old patterns
in your RAS in such a way that it begins to works in your favor.
24 hours a day…
It draws to you the resources, the people, the love, money,
energy, ideas and even more to you. And it helps you manifest
these with a feeling of deep inner peace.
It’s about a man named Jeff who asked me for help with
some major money issues.
He told me he tried all sorts of things to make more money:
Affirmations
Visualizing
Courses on the Law Of Attraction (he told me he
spent hundreds of dollars just on LOA materials)
Subliminals
As I began working with him, I remembered back to when I
had the same kind of challenges and what I learned. And how
much I struggled with trying to get ahead (or in many cases just to keep up).
The Shadow Of Money
Jeff told me had problems with money and
feelings of “Not Enough” for as long as he could
remember. Even when he had money flowing in - their was something that seemed
to be nagging away at him on the inside. (like a
shadow that follows you everywhere).
As I worked with him, I asked him why he
would still be hanging on to his money issues - well into his forties.
Jeff stopped and said “I’m not sure what you mean - I’m not
“hanging on” to them - I want to be free of them!”
I replied: “We only do what serves us in some way. If it’s an issue that causes us pain or suffering, we need it to help us learn something”.
The phone went silent for a moment…
Jeff replied: “Whoa - you mean…”
“…you mean that a part of me is holding on to this issue because I need to pay attention to it in some way?”
“You bet” I replied… “That’s how the subconscious works. It’s your faithful servant. It’s doing what it was programmed to do a long time ago. Now you’re beginning to become aware of that programming.”
“Wow’” Jeff said… He took a deep breath and said: “Holy &%#$ !
You mean all the pain I’ve gone through isn’t even about money then?”
“Nope” I replied - “You’re beginning to peel away the false
conditioning that you bought into at a very early age - and it created
an identity - in other words bwho you believed yourself to be
because of that conditioning.
Carrying that identity around with you is like stepping on the break
and the accelerator at the same time when you’re trying to move
forward - you won’t get very far will you..?
“And you end of burning huge amounts of energy - right?”
“Yes” - until you let go… : - )
“But I would have never chosen to have this kind of suffering”
- Jeff said.
“Hmmm - if you didn’t then who did choose it? At the Soul level, each of us comes here to experience a journey of highs AND lows. No one else chose that journey for us. The belief that someone did is called a victim mentality.”
“But why would a person choose to continue that suffering?”
“First, it’s important to understand that the choice is un-conscious.
In other words, we’re not aware that we’re even making it. When
we have trauma in our lives, we somehow have to deal with it.
At the time the trauma first occurred, a part of our own Self literally
became disconnected in order to prevent us from ever feeling that
pain ever again.
There are parts of you that are much smarter (and faster) than
your conscious mind and these parts take on the trauma so you
don’t have to.”
“And that’s where the problem begins?” - Jeff said.
“Exactly - once that part of you takes on the trauma to prevent
you from being hurt again, it puts up a wall between you and ANY
experience that it thinks is similar.
“Oh my God” - Jeff said… “ANY similar experience?”
“Yes” - I replied.
“Paul - a HUGE lightbulb just went off for me!. When I was
young, I remember hearing my parents arguing about money. I was just
outside the room where they were arguing. My Dad was angry and
I heard my Mom crying and trying to tell my Dad something.”
“What just came to me was I thought they were arguing about me!
And what just dawned on me was I formed some kind of belief at
that age that age that I was bad - and I thought that money was
the cause!!!”
“I never made that connection before!!!”
“How are you feeling right now” I asked.
“Wow - both tears of joy and of sadness” - this is weird…”
I asked Jeff to take several slow deep breaths and then to notice
how he felt.
“Hmmm - peaceful - wow - this is so cool… I feel a huge shift from
just minutes ago Paul…”
“Cool Jeff - what have you learned so far?”
“That at a very deep level - we are the ones who created our blocks
- and all we need to do is tune in and really listen to how we’re feeling
- the rest will take care of itself”
“Right on brother…” I said.
“What do I need to do to attract stuff now?” Jeff asked.
“What makes you feel you need to attract it” - I replied.
“Because I don’t have it yet…”
“What if you already did? - but that old conditioning is blocking
your awareness of it.
“But what about the Law Of Attraction - don’t I have to attract it?”
“That false premise is what causes tremendous pain in people
of all kinds. And its based on an outdated and false belief
that you’re separate from what you want.
The only separation that exists is within yourself.
Take care of that, and the rest is simple.”
The phone went silent… then Jeff said “Wow - I never knew…”
“All this time, I thought that I had to chase it, coax it, attract it…
Now I know its all a sham. My mind had me believing that
I wasn’t enough - and I projected that out onto my everyday life.”
“I’m just stunned Paul… - this is just awesome…Thank you so much!”
“You’re very welcome” - I replied.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since that session, Jeff’s money issues have completely cleared.
His company sales have doubled and he feels a peace that he
didn’t know was possible.
“The Money Loop”
If you’re having money challenges, ask yourself this question:
“How does it serve me to hold on to money issues?”
Your first response may be like Jeff’s. Something like
“I’m not holding on to them! - I want to be free of them!”
But your subconscious knows differently.
And it tries to tell you through how you feel.
So here’s what you can do…
Todays Action Step Take some time today and really be truthful with yourself - look
into your attachment to your money issues - and the reason why
you’d prefer to hold on to them - rather than be free of them.
Key Point (The only reason we continue to re-experience a problem is because we need it to teach us something. When we’re done with the lesson
that our problem is here to teach us, it resolves itself and you’re
free to move on with your life.)
Step 1: Ask yourself “What’s good about my money issues?”
In other words, “How does it serve me to hold on to them?”
Step 2: Ask: “Am I willing to let go of the old identity and the story
that I’ve created about money in my life?”
Step 3: “What would my life be like completely free of this issue?”
And close your eyes, step back and breathe deeply 3-4 times…
Even if a part of you says: “I’ll never be rid of this issue”, just
breathe into that feeling, and thank that part of you…
And in so doing, you’ll begin to free yourself from it.
Allow yourself to really feel your feelings and breathe into them…
For your breath IS your Spirit.
And So it is…

Want more creativity and feel rested at the same time…?
Great article on the power of taking naps.
~Paul
Sleeping on a problem really can help solve it, claim scientists who discovered a nap can improve your powers of creativity.
Researchers found that people were able to think more laterally and quickly after a snooze and that if they dreamed the ability was even more enhanced.
The scientists believe that “incubating” a problem often leads to a solution but that the effect was increased when people entered a phase of sleep known as Rapid Eye Movement (REM).
They believe that REM- which occurs most predominantly just before we awake – helps the brain make connections between unrelated subjects.
REM sleep they concluded was “important for assimilating new information into past experience” to come up with creative solutions to problems.
The study, led by Professor Sara Mednick, a psychiatrist at the University of California, involved 77 young adults who were given a number of word associated creative tasks in the morning.
Participants were shown multiple groups of three words (such as: cookie, heart, sixteen) and asked to find a fourth word that can be associated to all three words (like sweet).
Later in the day after some were allowed a nap – and monitored using brain scans to see what kind of sleep they entered – they were given the same and new tasks.
For the same tasks, the passage of time and sleep allowed them to “incubate” their thoughts and come up with better and more varied solutions.
However for new tasks, it was found that those that entered REM sleep improved by almost 40 per cent over their morning performances .
Prof Mednick, who published her findings in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). said that it appears REM sleep especially helps achieve new solutions by allowing the brain to make new and useful associations between unrelated ideas.
“We found that – for creative problems that you’ve already been working on – the passage of time is enough to find solutions,” said Prof Mednick. “However, for new problems, only REM sleep enhances creativity.”
The researchers said that the findings suggested that sleep was a creative process and underlined the recommendation by Nobel Prize winning chemist Friedrich Kekule who said we must “learn to dream”.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The solutions to our problems lie within our reach. Your ability to step
back from the problem and see the bigger picture (things like sleep, daydreaming, walks in Nature, play, etc) can be the very thing you need most.
If you’re first reaction is “Hey - this is common sense - and nothing
new…” - ask yourself - “Do I actually do this in my life - or am I too
busy to take the time to actually do it?”.
We have many excuses for not doing what we know is the right
thing for ourselves, our bodies and even our planet.
Underneath our excuses is a a habit. If you’re prepared to
really be honest with yourself - and examine your habits,
a whole new life awaits you…
