• Making the Law of Attraction Work It's an easy task to learn about the Law of Attraction.  It's an easy task to speculate about the Law of Attraction.  But how many of you are actually making the Law of Attraction work for you right now?  The answer may surprise you - 100% of you!  However, you......

In those posts, I gave you some examples of how to utilize your leading representational bias to improve your writing skills......
• Self Is Life With some people it’s just not possible to be very synergic? Dissonance exists, yes, but it does not exclude synergy. Dissonance is cramped flow, snarled connections, and all these snarls can be circumvented. Without ego you have "just self". You don’t have to think "What about me?". You will just......
• Habitual Thinking Laws of Attraction is a new pseudo-religion, or so it would seem. Just have your mind be sun-shiny enough and your life will be delirious bliss. Anyone have any luck with that? No. The “positive” people I know are in bouts of depression half the time. Yes, because they try......

Agile Marketing Solutions, LLC., a leading online marketing and consulting firm, will volunteer for the upcoming Open House at Horizon Center for Intuitive Awareness in Atlanta, Georgia scheduled for Wednesday, July 29, 2009 from 7-9 pm. Agile Marketing Solutions, LLC is a full scale marketing agency that specializes in blogging, video blogging, organic search engine optimization (SEO), pay per click advertising (PPC), and online media buying is continuing to seek and volunteer for events that promote sustainable issues that promote a healthy environment.

“We are excited about this opportunity to work with the Horizon Center for this great event! They are planning to highlight all of their services from energy healing, “readings” and other great forms of intuitive awareness and development. That is definitely one of the many reasons we would like to align ourselves with this effort,” says Agile Marketing Solutions, LLC Director of Business Development Hamza Davis. During this event, the Horizon Center will also be discussing their weekly Free Energy Healing Clinic. A lucky few will have the opportunity to receive an energy healing demonstration.

What is energy healing? Any energy in your body or aura that is not in time or in tune with you will cause a slow, steady draining of your vitality. This leads to larger issues arising in the physical body, emotional overwhelm, and psychic cloudiness. An energy healing regularly can help you find, address and release what is no longer yours to carry. This frees you up to engage fully with your own life’s issues.

The Horizon Center, located along the “Metaphysical Mile” in Sandy Springs on Roswell Road, has been a spiritual development resource to the Atlanta community since February 2003. JoAnn Wilson is the Director of the Horizon Center for Intuitive Awareness. JoAnn Wilson has practiced spiritual awareness for over twenty years. “My dream was to develop a Center near my friends and family in the South where we practice our intuitive and psychic tools in community of kindred spirits. I am so excited to be a part of this wonderful group; to send light into our community and world, and be surrounded by such capable beings. Our classes focus on skills useful to you on your path, combining pragmatic tools with spiritual wisdom and I look forward to our Open House on July 29^th. Space is limited to the first twenty-five (25) people to register at (404) 497-1700” commented JoAnn.

Interview with Dr. Michael Craig

Are you sick and tired of jumping from seminar to seminar to grasp that success that is definitely inside of you somewhere?  So was my guest Dr. Michael Craig!  For over forty (40) years he rode this rollercoaster on the road to self discovery.  The result?  He is the author of The Logical Soul.  In our interview, he discusses how he discovered a way to bust out of the viscious self-defeating cycle of indifference, self-doubt, fear, and guilt, and into the sunshine of self-confidence, happiness, joy, and (yes) a BURNING DESIRE to see this work spread throughout the world!

He “dedicated his life to discovering the “CURE for the COMMON SOUL” . . . a solution to the warped brain patterns that persist in feeding you the idea that you’re not smart enough, rich enough, or strong enough to make things happen in your life IN SPITE OF all the self-help books and courses you’ve done!”

I will let you be the judge!

Recently, President Obama signed an executive order that reverses restrictions on stem cell research put into place by the Bush administration in 2001. While some religious organizations are protesting this move, most scientists and doctors are celebrating. What does continued stem cell research really mean for the American public?

Dr. Nick Delgado explores the amazing benefits of stem cell therapy. On my show, he’ll explain in plain language how stem cells work and why this important field of research has the potential to bring about the most beneficial medical developments in history. In my interview with Dr. Delgado you’ll hear:

• The implications of stem cell research in the battle against arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, and Alzheimer’s.

• How a new stem cell therapy and biomechanics can heal worn and damaged joints, instead of just covering up the pain.

• Why stem cells have the potential to actually reverse the aging process, and how this could happen in our lifetime.

• What he’s discovered through personally undergoing 10 stem cell therapy treatments.

CREDENTIALS: Dr. Nick Delgado is a media personality, international speaker, lecturer and researcher in biochemistry and endocrinology with a focus on balancing the physiology of aging.

Interview with Susie Shina:

Bank accounts and retirement savings are getting leaner … but this troubling recession could be having the opposite effect on American bodies. Countless people in your audience are losing sleep about money and: • Eating poorly. Instead of getting wholesome nutrition needed to stave-off stress, they’re turning to pound-packing comfort foods, mega-meals, sugary drinks and even alcohol. • Making sacrifices when funds are tight. They’ll drop gym memberships, quit golfing, and even give up walking through the mall. And spend more time indoors sitting around. • Not paying attention to their relationships. Who can afford dating? Why romance your spouse when you’re obsessing about plummeting CD rates and job loss? But we can overcome all this and stay within budget—says America’s Fitness LifeStylist Susie Shina. She’ll offer realistic, healthy, fun solutions to stay just fit enough, no matter how out-of-shape the economy gets. She’ll discuss on-air: • Daily 10 minute lifestyle transformations to beat stress and weight gain. • Luscious, low-cost nutrition fixes for eating like a king in tough times. • How exercise enhances the best things in life—sleep and sex. Learn Susie’s tricks and you’ll soon forget money woes. • And much more for using this “down” time to improve your life. CREDENTIALS: Sought-after speaker and interview guest Susie Shina has authored the new book FIT ENOUGH: The 7 Day Guide for Really Living Your Life! Shina once weighed more than 200 pounds, but developed a program to reduce to size 2, without depriving herself.

Interview with Dr. Wheaton:

Dentists get tired of patients with jaw pain. They take lots of time and their problem is hard to cure. The truth is that traditional medicine is only partly capable of dealing with it. Dr. Jeffrey Wheaton should know. He’s a dentist who is also a board-certified oral surgeon. When his patients begged him to do something, he began researching holistic remedies to combine with existing therapies for a health problem that affects 10 million to 15 million Americans.

Temporomandibular joint disorder (known as TMJ) is the cause of numerous symptoms which can be treated, thanks to Dr. Wheaton’s new approach to this painful problem. During my interview with him on my show he explains why:

• Five times more women than men suffer from TMJ.

• Hearing clicking, popping or grinding sounds may indicate a TMJ problem.

• Chronic headaches can be an indicator of TMJ.

• A remedy from avocado and soybean extracts is helping patients now.

• Stress makes TMJ worse.

• Surgery is not a magic cure.

CREDENTIALS: Jeffrey Wheaton, D.D.S., M.D., a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, is the creator of Natural TMJ Relief®, an all-natural proprietary blend of herbs and vitamins selected to promote a healthy jaw joint by providing nutrients vital to proper muscle and joint function.

When it comes to making money on the Internet there is no shortage of ways to do it. Of course if you have a product of your own that is the best place to start. What if you do not have a product of your own?

Here are a few ways you can sell stuff online with affiliate marketing to make money for yourself.

- Affiliate Programs. Getting paid to sell other people’s products is the quickest way to get going that I have found. Affiliate marketing has been around for over 10 years now and many people look at Amazon.com as one of the first companies to sell products this way.

You can make money selling clicks such as with Google Adsense. You can make money selling leads with affiliate programs like Max Bounty. You can make money selling products. One such way is to sell information products like you would find at ClickBank.

Another thing you can do is affiliate program directories like AssociatePrograms.com or Commissions Junction where they have compiled some of the best products to sell in one place.

One way to make money online is to sell memberships. This can be done through both affiliate marketing as well as network marketing. Getting paid over and over for making one sale is called residual income.

Certainly network marketing also offers some great residual income for repeat business on a monthly basis. Many MLM companies will set up your customers and distributors on auto-ship and the products they order go out like clock work every month. When they do you make a commission every month just like clockwork as well.

Back to paid memberships. Products that can be accessed online and offer value to your customer are great to sell. Paid memberships fit this description. Subscriptions on how to run a home business, personal development, paid newsletters on every subject imaginable, website hosting, autoresponders, and just about anything you can think of, offer you a chance to create residual income.

Two tier programs where you get paid on the sales of people you recruit work great for paid membership programs as well. Of course network marketing falls into this category and can even be better because you can make money every month on the sales of a large group of people.

The key with most paid subscription programs is you make a little bit of money on every sale. The first month this may not amount to much. The second month it can be more. In a year it can be quite a lot. Kind of like compound interest if you know how that works.

Your efforts and your sales compound themselves offering you a great chance to build an income that you could walk away from in a few years.

Can you say that about your current job?

Interview with Joel Harvey Schreck

Traditional Chinese medicine is the fastest growing segment of the alternative medicine market, yet many health practitioners and patients remain ignorant about the potential benefits of Chinese herbs and acupuncture.

These practices have been refined over thousands of years, and have been used successfully to treat a wide range of ailments from acne and allergies to lower back pain, headaches and hot flashes.

Author, acupuncturist and founder of the popular Dr. Shen line of herbs, Joel Harvey Schreck, explains that the future of health care in the United States is now at a critical juncture and more information about traditional Chinese healing needs to be made mainstream.

According to Schreck, Chinese medicine “is practical, safe, reliable, and natural. Hundreds of modern, controlled studies have validated the effectiveness and safety of this ancient practice.

On my show, Schreck will identify what the studies have proven, and will explain why many Americans are now turning to Chinese medicine for relief.

He will also:

Explain how acupuncture and herbs can provide relief from many of the most common ailments.

Provide detailed information on herbal properties, preparation, dosages and effectiveness.

Answer questions about specific ailments and alternative treatments.

Interview with Dr. Larry Lytle

Get My List of Podcasts

Universal and affordable health care was an important election issue and now we have an even better idea of what Obama’s Health Care Plan will entail. But is he even addressing the right issues?

Medical expert Dr. Larry Lytle says providing health care insurance for all is not enough. He says we need to overhaul the medical system which kills more people in a single day than have been killed during the entire war in Iraq.

He wants us to ask the right questions of our health care providers and demand that they provide safer care.

Dr. Lytle will open the eyes of your audience when he reveals:

Our current health care plans have a horrible missing link.

Simple and safe low level laser therapy is more effective at improving many diseases than surgery and drugs.

Hospitals kill more people each year than heart attacks, cancer and car accidents combined.

Insurance companies will not cover FDA-approved medical treatments simply because they are not endorsed by pharmaceutical companies.

Health care, including drug companies and hospitals, is more profitable than any other organization.

CREDENTIALS: Dr. Larry Lytle is an expert in preventive medicine and a pioneer in low level laser therapy. A guest on numerous radio shows, he haspublished four books concerning different health care aspects, including HEALING LIGHT.

You realize you went overboard again. But did you know chronic shopping may be a sign of a bigger problem like cognitive behavioral therapy obsessive compulsive disorder? A Stanford University study estimates that 17 million to 28 million Americans are shopaholics, and the addiction rate keeps growing even though our economy is in the tank.

Dr. April Benson is a respected expert on compulsive buying disorders. She says men are as likely to have a shopping problem as women. He may be a businessman who likes to collect stuff, or a teacher who secretly buys from Amazon.com.

Dr. Benson will also reveal:

The real reason for your urge to splurge and how to stop it.

How excessive shopping destroys relationships and your bank balance.

Why shopping to ease your pain, boredom or loneliness doesn’t work.

How you use rampant shopping as a weapon to keep up with the neighbors.

What you’re really shopping for and how to finally get it.

“When I die, bury me at the mall, so my wife will come to visit me.”
