Releasing Limits

Peter Michel got an advance copy of Zero Limits and sent me the following email. I loved it and asked his permission to share it here with you, which he gave. Enjoy. 🙂

Dear Joe,

Wow, gosh.  I’m blazing through your book here.  I rarely do more than dip and skim books very quickly.  I’m already up to page 45, having read every page so far.

It’s yummy — filled with love… clear, concise… again, your best book so far.

I’m not sure if I shared this with you or not, but I shared this with Dr. Len at the dinner you held in his honor in Texas, and I still stand by it — though I’m not sure Dr. Len understood what I was sharing, as it takes a little more explanation that I had time to give to it.

In the Release Technique (see www.theabundancecourse.com), Lester Levinson taught us that every program (memory) is rooted in desire… one of three: wanting approval, wanting control or wanting to be safe/to survive.  Above these three is the desire to be separate (from the “I” or “All”).

By applying ho’oponopono only to the individual memories, we are mostly addressing just the branches.  We are not snipping the roots.  Thus, the tree of illusion regrows until true Self-identification/Self-realization happens.

Releasing isn’t just about “cleaning”; it is very much about Self-identity or “I”-Dentity as Dr. Len calls it.  It is about knowing *that* you are — consciously.  Being your Beingness only — I am that I am.

Releasing is a tool for clearing the memories so that one can more easily *taste*, consciously, the open awareness in which the memories arise and return to.  The more we taste what we truly are, the more we identify with it.  This is the ONLY way to identify correctly with who and what we are — to consciously and repeatedly taste or drop into it by relaxing into the open, peaceful experience of just simply *being*… also known as “zero.”

Applying ho’oponopono is, to me, far more powerful when each feeling, clutch, thought, program, pattern or problem that arises in the mind is taken down to: “Is this coming from a wanting approval, wanting control, wanting to be safe or a wanting to be separate?”  Then, we can offer that lacking feeling (desire) to the Divine with ho’oponopono (love/acceptance) and clear these MASTER programs, into which EVERY other memory/program is tied (no exceptions).

When we clear these roots, we clear far more “charge” off all the other memories/programs and we sink further and deeper into the “I” with far greater ease… leading us, again, to more fully and completely “I”-Denitfy with what we truly are… Openness.

Here’s an example:

If I feel pride over something, I can ask myself which of the “wants” is it coming from.  For me, pride arises often from a “wanting to be separate” root program.  By saying, “I love you.  I’m sorry” to that wanting to be separate feeling in my body-mind, I allow myself to let go of not only that pride program, but also EVERY OTHER program that is FED by that master control program of wanting to separate myself from others… such as my being “bossy” or “not listening,” etc.  Everything tied into this root can be cleared much more rapidly when I “ho’oponopono” the root instead of just the branch (the particular memory or current expression born from that root).

I have felt to share this with you each time I have thought of ho’oponopono.  This occurred to me first as Dr. Len was speaking to the group.  It feels born of inspiration. 

You don’t need to do anything with this perspective.  I’m just feeling to share it with you.  In truth, I’m the only one who needs to apply it 🙂

I love you and deeply appreciate you for sharing this, Joe.

Your book is living up to what I had felt it would be — POWERFUL and full of LOVE.  Tears came to my eyes reading Dr. Len’s words.  And, the book is beautifully written.  It is some of your better writing.

If I’m around on July 10th, I will be buying a bunch to help ensure it reaches number one on Amazon.

What’s amazing is that it was written just for me, as “I” am the only one Here.

With much gratitude…

Om Namah Shivaya and Aloha,

Peter

Attracting All

Someone sent me a blunt email saying they were surprised I didn’t realize I attracted my food sensitivities, and even more surprised that I didn’t know I could un-attract them.

Of course I know both.

After all, I’m the teacher in the movie The Secret who went on Larry King (twice, thank you) and declared you attract everything via the Law of Attraction.

No exceptions. No loopholes.

You simply do the attracting UN-consciously.

In fact, some advanced teachers are now explaining that all manifestation is unconscious.

When you read my (and Dr. Hew Len’s) book, Zero Limits, you’ll learn that even your intentions — which you think are being consciously decided — are actually bubbling up from your un-conscious.

The great goal is to awaken.

To become conscious.

No matter what you have in your life, you can “un-attract” it, or attract what you prefer, by doing some work to clean up the unconscious.

That work can be anything from EFT to releasing to Sedonna to belief work to hypnosis to ho’oponopono to DVDs to therapy to Healing Codes to coaching to even transcending The Secret— the list goes on.

But here’s my point:

You usually have to do something to get clear and attract what you prefer.

People seem to forget that when you want to un-attract something, you usually still have to take action.

The fact that I took a blood test doesn’t imply I don’t know about the law of attraction.

The fact that I’m abstaining from unsafe foods for me, at least for a short time, doesn’t mean I don’t know about the law of attraction.

When you awaken to a problem in your life, you have to do something to handle it.

This fact seems to get glossed over by even fans of The Secret.

They watch the movie but somehow forget I’m the guy in it saying the universe likes speed and action is usually necessary to attract results.

So, if you discover you attracted something you consciously don’t want, whether a food sensitivity or anything else, you might have to do something to un-attract it.

You might have to get clear.

You might need a Miracles Coach.

You are a co-creator in this universe.

The “co” means YOU have to participate.

iPhone vs Curve

My name is Joe.

I’m a crackberry.

“Hi, Joe.”

I’m addicted to my Blackberry, so this post won’t be a fair review of the new smart phones: Apple iphone vs Blackberry Curve.

Plus I haven’t actually seen the iphone yet, so this is not a legitimate review at all.

But let’s look at the marketing of both phones.

Steve Jobs has done an excellent job of garnishing publicity. His new baby is being reviewed and talked about in magazines and on television. This is enormous free exposure.

He’s getting so much interest for the iphone, which releases today, that I decided to push back the book launch of Zero Limits until July 10.

I didn’t want my book promotion to drown out the release of Steve’s iphone.

I hear he gets mad easy.

Anyway, the TV commercial for the iphone is excellent. It clearly shows you how it works by demonstrating it right there on the screen, before your eyes.

Whenever you can demonstrate your product or service, quickly and directly, so people can see the benefits to them without much thought, you are very close to making a sale.

From what I can tell from the TV spot, I doubt typing on the iphone will be very easy. A few early reviewers have already complained that the on-screen keyboard is clumsy and slow to respond. In fact one reviewer said that if you do mostly email and text messaging (which is me) you had best stick to your Blackberry for now.

As for the new Blackberry Curve smart phone www.blackberrycurve.com, which went on the market last week, I love it.

It’s small, light, easy to use, now has a camera, can play music as well as video, and the battery seems to last for days.

I bet it’s better than the iphone www.apple.com/iphone/ but again I won’t know until I wander into an Apple store (the only place to get it) and examine the smart phones side by side.

But back to the marketing of these phones.

The Blackberry Curve has gotten a lot of free press, too. Reviewers are calling it the long-awaited hit from the people at RIM, who make the smart phone.

I don’t think the TV ads for the Curve are as good as the ones for the iphone. The Curve ads are more brand and image oriented, where the iphone ones are more practical and direct.

In the end, you’ll have to look at both phones, try them out, consider what you want them for, and then roll the dice on one of them.

For me, even though the iphone has a better commerical, I’m sticking with my Blackberry Curve.

At least for now.

PS – Launch date for Zero Limits is now July 10. Expect fireworks! Get your camera phones ready! Tell Steve Jobs! And Oprah! Heck, tell EVERYONE!

Creating Wealth

I’m having to swim upstream to read the book HERD, which I mentioned a week or so ago.

It’s a fascinating marketing book but so thick with ideas, theories and psychologies that I feel like I’m mentally drudging through quicksand.

So I was delighted to receive Steve Chandler’s new book, 100 Ways to Create Wealth.

As you know by now, I’m a fan of Steve’s writing. This new book is just as breezy, entertaining and enlightening as his others.

The book doesn’t so much reveal 100 “ways” to wealth as it offers 100 mind openers so you can spot and then receive wealth. 

Truth is, money is all over the place and the most unlikely people are finding it. (Watch Donny Deutsch’s TV show The Big Idea to get a real sense of this). Steve’s book, written with Sam Beckford, helps open your eyes.

One of my favorite parts of the book is right at the beginning, where Steve and Sam explain that they are writing this book so you can have wealth so you can help yourself and others.

I put that phrase in bold because I want you to get it.

Many people say money is evil and push it away. What they don’t seem to understand is the wealthier you are, the more good you can do in the world.

Money is a just a tool. When you have it, you can use it to build a lot of good things — for yourself, your family, and your world.

Get this book, 100 Ways to Create Wealth, and start expanding your mind about what is possible.

You deserve it.

So does your family.

So does the world.

PPS – Zero Limits is climbing the Amazon bestseller list — again! — yet I haven’t begun the promotion for it. The big day will be July 10. Stay tuned.

Food Sensitivities

I had a food sensitivities test done and was shocked by the results.

Food sensitivities are different than food allergies.

Allergic reactions to food are usually immediate and obvious. You eat peanuts and end up (if you’re allergic to them) in ER.

Sensitivities are sneaky. You eat some innocent food and three days later wonder why you have a headache. Or are feeling depressed. Or lethargic. Etc.

Sometimes called hidden food allergies, food sensitivities may cause nasal allergies, asthma, arthritis, stomach problems, inability to lose weight, fatigue, migraine headaches, and oh so much more.

I was a skeptic about this until Nerissa had her test done a month or more back. We were surprised to see neutral foods like spinach, or spices like pepper, were obvious problems for her.

Who would have guessed it?

I still wasn’t convinced. But after seeing her carefully examine all the foods she ate, and eliminate all the known sensitivity suspects, and then seeing her feel better, I decided I better do the blood test, too.

I did.

What an eyeopener.

For example, I was stunned to see the king of antioxidants — blueberries — to be a red alert food for me.

Blueberries?

I’ve been eating blueberries every day for years.

Those innocent berries are a problem for me.

Same with green peppers, though I was looking for an excuse not to eat them anyway.

Same with eggplant.

Same with grapes. (No wine for me.)

All bad guys to my body.

There are numerous things I can safely eat, of course.

All forms of meat are fine for me, though chicken is nudging the suspect line and turkey is hands down good for me.

I knew cheeses were a problem for me, but I didn’t know blue cheese, Swiss cheese and goat’s cheese were all safe. (I love goat cheese.)

None of this means you can gorge on the safe foods. Calories still count. Moderation still counts. But, in general, eating a lot of safe foods will be better for you health-wise in the long run.

If you’ve never had a food sensitivities test, I encourage you to get one. They draw some blood, send it to a lab, and you get the results in a week.

There are at least four kinds of respected food sensitivities tests. Nerissa took the IgG ELISA. I took the MRT. We both agreed the MRT was more comprehensive and easier to understand, though it was four times as expensive to do.

Keep in mind that the results you get aren’t all bad news. You don’t have to give up the food villans forever. You can correct food sensitivities by eliminating the suspect foods for a couple of months, and then reintroducing them to your body. Your body will then be reset. The result is a happier, healthier you.

Ask your medical doctor about it.

Better yet, since your doc may not know about these tests, ask an alternative care practitioner about them.

PS – I was hoping garlic and scallops were OK for me. They are. I’m addicted to both. Had the results shown them as bad news for me, I would have done the test again, but with someone else’s blood.

Note: The MRT food sensitivities test that I took is done by the Signet Diagnostic Corporation. You can get information by completing their online form at www.nowleap.com/complimentary_prescreening.html (I don’t know the company or anyone working there. Again, consult with your physician.)

TIP: I currently have someone making my food for me once a week. This makes my life easier. I just reach in the frig and pull out the next meal. It’s weighed, balanced, and only consists of safe foods for me. If you’re in the Austin or Wimberley, Texas area, let me know and I’ll tell you who he is. If you aren’t near by, you might look for a nutritionist that makes house calls.
