Do-it-yourself Technique: the 100 to 1 method.

—–> How to do it:

With your eyelids closed, turn your eyeballs upward slightly –about 20 degrees up or as far as is
comfortable — and mentally see and say the numbers 100 to 1.

You may feel a slight tingling in your head as you do this, especially as you get nearer to the number
1. (Be sure to do this while sitting up, as lying down may cause you to go to sleep.) This process
takes you to an alpha brainwave level, even theta territory, which is why it may be useful to explore
even if you are an experienced meditator.

Once you have seen and mentally said the number 1, you are at the level to visualize.

---------------------------------------------

Picture in your mind what you would see if the desired outcome were to happen. See it clearly and
vividly. If what you are picturing involves a personal goal, see yourself in the mental picture. (If you
are someone not too aware of your inner pictures, you may find that keeping your eyeballs turned
upward slightly — with your eyes closed — during the 100 to 1 countdown gives you even greater
awareness of your inner pictures. Don’t take my word for it though, please check for yourself.)

After some length of time picturing the desired outcome, whatever length of time feels appropriate to
you, count yourself to waking consciousness from 1 to 5, mentally seeing and saying each number.
At the count of 5, open your eyes, feeling relaxed and refreshed.

Bonus: Before counting yourself awake, you might also repeat some of your personal affirmations!
This is a wonderful use of this deeper level of mind.

The best metaphor I have heard about this is that your mind, like cold wax, responds very little to
impressions. Press a cold candle with your thumb and no imprint appears. But if you WARM the wax
(WARM your mind by quieting your brainwave levels), then your thumb easily makes an impression
that remains after the wax has cooled again.

-------------------------------------------------

Pointers I have learned from people who get superb results:

1. Picture something good for yourself and good for all concerned. If you want more profits in your
business, picture increased gain to your customers and the fortune flowing from that.. If you want a
happier love-life, picture the increased delight for your partner (or prospective partner), picture both
of you enjoying each other’s company in an ever-increasing way. In other words, not just win/win, but
win/win/win/win/win/win/win/win/win/win…. with a win for everyone concerned

2. Picture something you really really want, NOT something you think you ought to want, or are
expected to want.

3. Have expectancy, like this: Suppose you go to Sears to buy a dishwasher. You pick one out, pay
for it, and give the salesperson your address. You are told that it will be delivered in three days.Three
days later a Sears truck backs up in your driveway. What do you expect will come out of the back of
the truck? Of course, you expect a dishwasher! Have THAT kind of expectancy for your goals.

4. Let the universe handle the details.
