This is a question that cannot be answered without considering personal receptivity, needs and preferences. For some, holosync has worked greatly, whereas others have not seen much benefit. When I tried it about 15 years ago, I had good results with some tapes, but none with others. It is a matter of individuality. There are many wonderful methods of self-development out there, but it is ,I believe, not possible to find one that works for every person. If you feel attracted to holosync, I am sure it is going to benefit you. I personally don't use any method, but synchonize myself with my inner essence without any form of manipulation, and it works for me.

Blessings,

I've been listening to Centerpointe
Holosync CDs for 22 months, and I'm
convinced that they've enriched my
life. The first thing I do each
morning is listen to an hour's worth
of Holosync: a blend of soothing
music, ringing crystal bowls, and
the sound of running water. When I'm
done, I feel much better prepared to
face the day and its demands.

I'm going to take you through my
routine. I'll try to explain the
science behind Holosync, as well as
the positive changes I've noticed in
myself since I began listening to it. But I want to say up front that
Holosync is expensive. At the end of
this post, I'll tell you about an
inexpensive alternative to Holosync
that Doctor Joseph Mercola recommends. His Insight Focus CDs
sell for a one-time cost of $47.95.

I listen to Holosync while lying on
an exercise mat. Yes, I know the
instructions suggest you listen while sitting up in a yoga-type pose. But I much prefer to listen
while lying down. I put a pillow
under my knees, place the stereo
earphones over my ears, fold a small, dry towel over my eyes, and
turn on the CD machine.

Most of you know that our brains
generate electrical wave patterns
known as brainwaves. The four distinct patterns are Beta, Alpha,
Theta. and Delta. Each of these
electrical wave patterns change the
way that you perceive the world, as
well as the manner in which you
process information. They're measured in hertz (Hz), or cycles per second.

Beta brainwaves (13-34 Hz) are the
daily norm for most people. Anxiety
and stress are most likely to occur
in the high Beta range, It's not much of an exaggeration to say that
our modern world has been largely
shaped by people who function most
of the time in the upper Beta levels.

Alpha brainwaves (8 to 12 Hz) occur
when we are relaxed and calm. You're
in Alpha when you daydream, but also
when you're learning something new.
Theta (4 to 7 Hz) is a deeply relaxed, creative state in which the
focus is inward. Most of history's
greatest artists produced their
masterpieces while under the stimulus of Theta brainwaves.

The final state is Delta (.5 to 3 Hz). Each of us experiences the Delta state during the 90 minutes or
so of dreamless sleep which occurs
soon after you go to bed. Delta is
also the zone where the most accomplished yogis do their very best meditation.

What Holosync does is take your brain from Beta to Alpha to Theta to
Delta within 30 minutes. Each Holosync CD lasts 1 hour, and is
divided into two parts: Part #1,
The Dive, takes your brain gradually
down into the Delta zone. Part #2,
Immersion, keeps you in Delta for 30
minutes.

I can hear you say, "Owen, how do you know you're in Delta zone?" I know because I feel that mild sense
of sleep paralysis in my limbs that
normally prevents us from walking in
our sleep. It's a pleasant feeling.
And, of course, there's no real
paralysis: I can stand up whenever I
want to. But I feel so peaceful and
calm in Delta, that I have no desire
to move.

So that's the first benefit of Holosync: 30 minutes more each day in the land of deep contentment:
Delta zone. Plus, you get to spend
some extra time in Alpha and Theta,
both very pleasant levels of the mind.

Our bodies do their best healing
during that 90 minutes each night of
dreamsless sleep. The brain increases its production of DHEA,
melatonin, and Human Growth Hormone,
and decreases levels of cortisol,
an age-accelerating hormone produced
by the adrenal glands. An additional
30 minutes each day of Delta brainwaves gives your body quality
time in which to do some healing.

Holosync works by putting a different frequency, a binaural beat, in each of your ears, beneath
the soothing sounds of water and
crystal bowls. Your left ear might be hearing a frequency of 100 Hz;
your right ear 110 Hz. Surprisingly,
this causes your entire brain, both
the left and right hemispheres, to
entrain to the DIFFERENCE between the two frequencies: in this case,
10 Hz, a mid-Alpha range. Over the
course of the next 30 minutes, Holosync takes you "down" to Delta
zone in this manner.

And this leads to the two REALLY
important parts of Holosync: First,
the technology provides MORE input
than your brain can handle -- the
way it is currently structured! Your
brain responds by reorganizing itself at higher levels of function
that CAN handle the additional input.

(I'm going to continue this in a
second post: Part 2).

way it is currently structured! Your

that CAN handle the additional input.

(I'm going to continue this in a
second post: Part 2).

Your brain creates new neural pathways and establishes communication between parts of the
brain that were not previously
communicating. This results in
increased learning ability and better mental clarity

Second, the new reorganization means
that the threshold for what you can
handle -- stress -- is slowly raised
higher and higher. You find that you
can now handle stress that, previously, caused you to become
angry, fearful, depressed, and confused: chaotic states which can
lead to drug abuse, overeating,
and violence. Indeed, you will let go of some of the unresolved emotional material that has been
lying deep in your unconscious mind.

I find that I'm now amused by the
things that used to cause me to go
into a tizzy. My stress threshold
has been raised significantly. Lots
of emotional baggage has been flushed out. For some of us, Holosync is a liver cleanse of the
brain and mind.

There are 13 levels in the Holosync
Program. Each level comes with 4 CDs
that you listen to, for a total of
52 CDs. Each of those CDs is crafted
at a LOWER carrier frequency. So when your brain gets used to CD #1,
after 6 weeks or so, you switch to
CD #2 -- and your brain reorganizes
itself once again.

If you've ever lifted weights, you
know that your biceps will get used
to the barbell-weights you began
with. Your muscles will no longer
break down and grow bigger unless you add additional weights. Holosync
works precisely the same way.

Your brain uses the extra stimulation to not only create new
neural pathways, but to flush out
emotional gunk that the previous CD
couldn't reach. You also get an
additional CD with each level, called Floating, which you can listen to while you're sleeping at
night, if you choose to. And the
very first level, Awakening Prologue, comes with yet another CD
which provides 30 minutes each of
Alpha and Theta. They're helpful to
listen to while doing creative work,
or learning something new.

Beginning with Awakening Level #1,
the second set of CDs. you can add a
subliminal track of affirmations,
spoken in your own voice; the kind of positive encouragement you give
yourself on your best days. You call
Holosync, and they record 5 minutes
of your affirmations as you speak
them into the phone. They loop the
5-minute track a dozen times, and add it to your next level of CDs.
So your subconscious mind is listening to each of your affirmations a dozen times during
the 60-minute CD. The Floating CD
also has your affirmations, so you
can encourage yourself all night if
you want to.

In mid-November, I will have finished 4 of the 13 Holosync levels, a total of 16 CDs. The next
level is on my shelf, waiting to go.
It will take my well into July of
2005. I kept the same affirmations,
though I could have easiy changed them.

My reactions? I've thoroughly enjoyed my almost two years of listening to Holosync. I'm much more
contented these days. There's virtually nothing on my wish-list.
Negative thoughts don't take root,
like they used to. I can't recall the
last time I was angry. I like myself
better, and am much more open to other people. I look for the good in
them, and usually find it. My thinking is clearer, and I'm a better writer and speaker than I was
two years ago. My deep intuition tells me that Holosync is important to me in ways that I can't articulate. And that's why I almost
never miss a session.

Incidentally, I have NO connection to Holosync -- or any other business! I'm a teacher, and I enjoy
teaching people things which may enrich their lives. CureZone has given me the opportunity to do that in a variety of forums. God has
blessed me abundantly, and all I want to do in the winter of my lifetime is Give Back.

Last thought: As I said at the beginning of this long, two-part post, Doctor Joseph Mercola, a name
most of you recognize, said in a
recent e-Alert that he used Holosync
for 2 years. He liked it, just like
I do. But Doctor Mercola decided that he couldn't give it an hour each day. He also heard reservations
from some of his customers about the
total cost of the 13 Holosync levels, plus the years it takes to
complete the program properly.

So Doctor Mercola hunted around, and
found a very inexpensive alterative
program which he now uses and sells.
It's called Insight Focus CDs, and
costs a one-time total of $47.95.
He uses it for 30 minutes each day,
and loves it. Check out his website
for more details: www.mercola.com
as well as testimonials. The Insight
and Focus CDs come with a 90-day,
money-back guarantee. I've ordered
a set to check them out.

You can try Holosync for free. They'll send you a single CD, if you
call them. The number is 1-800-945-
2741. Their website is:
www.centerpointe.com The first
Holosync level costs $159.00. You can return it anytime within the first year for a full refund. And you get to keep the extra freebie CDs that come with it.

Thanks for taking the time to read
this long, two-part post! I hope the
information I provided will be of
help to some of you. Do give us some
feedback on your own experiences with Holosync or the Insight & Focus
CDs.
