Inner power is a natural ability that appears to be supernatural in its effects and results. It is like a powerful magnetic shield that will protect you from hostile threats. Understand here and now that the threats have to be real and not sport. Inner power only works when someone has immoral intent directed towards you or even your personal belongings. After having studied inner power training methods with several masters, it can be assured that this is in fact a real power that will protect you when needed. Those attacking you will be thrown and/or powerfully repelled by your inner power. You can even control and manipulate their physical actions (much like a puppet), once they have fallen under the influence of your inner power as a result of their aggression, but you should never abuse this particular situation, as your only objective is nonviolent self-defense, not an all out offensive attack. Compassion is an important quality to cultivate if you are to become a true inner power master.

In this video we just uploaded Sifu Dan Ferrera demonstrates visually how to cultivate and use Empty Force.

Kinesiology is not far off when it comes to the mental and Andrew Kemp (Kinesiology site) at Quantum K (Guided meditation) in the United Kingdom is not far off. In its essence Kemp believes the body/mind healing process is an equation where both are variables in the equation. See the connection with Traditional Chinese Medicine? According to Kemp -

1. Healing should be simple.
2. Healing can be delivered through the focused intent of therapist or patient.
3. The Universe, including the human body, obeys the laws of fractal geometry and the correct equation can be re-run to correct imbalances in mind and body.
4. Numbers are understood by our bodies as concepts and 12 digit sequences can talk straight to our DNA to provide healing.

Kemp’s site Quantum K addresses this phenomena and explains how numbers and fractal geometry are a part of this body/mind equation. If this sounds far out there and a bit of hocus pocus Kemp has created a practice and method to try for yourself as an individual. Again, this relates to the role of technology in our practices and how it can advance us.

Quantum K is really a method to defragment your mind/body hard drive and get rid of the messy bits which have muddied the fractal dimensions in your mind and body.

From the Quantum K website -

To explain simply, Quantum K is a 23 minute guided meditation. You find a quiet place to sit and play the music along with viewing visuals of geometric sequences and various, somewhat intense, thought affirmations floating across the screen. These go way beyond thought affirmations like “I am a good person who is lovable and capable”. These are thought affirmations to correct the biological makeup of your cells, the way you breathe, and negative vibrations you have absorbed from people and things in this lifetime and those before. The first time is very exciting, it really opens you up to the way your mind and body works with one another. It is also worthwhile to come back often to defragment as all complex organisms need to.

As a suggestion practice the Qigong exercises in our Qigong 101 course followed by a meditation from Quantum K.

Binaural Beats – Technology integration with individual meditation

Binaural Beats, sometimes called binaural tones, need stereo headphones with different frequencies coming in each ear. The effect is a “beat” created by the brain reacting to the different frequencies. This was first discovered in 1839 by Heinrich Wilheim Dove and through the course of the 20th century seekers discovered these binaural beats can induce relaxation and even altered states of consciousness. More can be learned from the wikipedia entry and at the binaural beat page at  Auditory Neuroscience.

Our course for Opening The Third Eye uses binaural beats to aid in relaxation and even astral projection.

There are also apps from places like I-doser where you can download various binaural beats, not to mention the wealth of CDs and podcasts out there. Whatever you do, make sure you are in a safe and calm environment, not driving or using heavy machinery. The quality of the headphones you use also make a huge difference. I was using $15 Skullcandy headphones, the kind that go inside your ear and then upgraded to the AKG Acoustics K-240 Semi Open Studio Headphones. What a huge difference. The headphones opened up a whole new layer of textures and dimensions in the music. It was like hearing in 3D. With Binaural beats the experience is so much richer and for lack of a better word…. trippier.

Finally, the inspiration and motivation for this post to share with DevelopYourEnergy.net readers. Spotify. If you’ve never heard about it, now you have, and if you’ve heard but not signed up, go there. Spotify is a European based music social network (notice the ambient awareness again) like Pandora or Last.fm. However, they’ve figured out the balance between advertising and the choice of music listening. Unlike Pandora or Last.fm you can select entire albums or individual songs, create playlists, and then listen to them over and over in the cloud. Once I figured out what was going on I thought, why would I buy music ever again on a cd or even an mp3?

The Binaural Beat & Guided Meditation Spotify Tip

Once I got past all the artists and genres I listen to and set up playlists on Spotify I experimented with a search “binaural beats”.  Whoa. There is a huge list of choices for binaural beats. All free. The paid versions of Spotify will drop all commercials but as some of these tracks are over 50 minutes and commercials are sprinkled in gracefully, I haven’t found them obnoxious. I’ve found some great binaural beats this way, particularly J.S. Epperson. A whole universe opened up to me.

And that concludes with the final tip. Search for “guided meditation” on Spotify. See where it takes you. Happy travels.

Technology does seem to be taking a role in all this doesn’t it?

1. Begin by slowing your breathing and really getting into the emotional feelings of savoring and relaxing. Inhale slowly like smelling a flower or enjoying something delicious and mentally savoring the inhale breath with “Mmmmmmm” Exhale slowly with a sigh of relief “Ahhhhh” and really get into the feeling of soothing, comforting, relaxing and calming. This should be Deep Diaphragmatic breathing also known as Buddha Breathing.
2. Tension and Relaxation: While inhaling with the savoring breath, you will progressively tense muscles beginning with your toes. During the relaxing exhale, you will release tension from the tightened muscles. First tense your toes then relax, then your entire foot and relax, then the calf and shin area, then the upper thighs and hamstring muscles, etc. Remember tense during the savoring inhale and release tension on the relaxing exhale. Continue progressively working up your body, by tensing your abdominal muscles and lower back, your chest muscles and upper back, your shoulders and neck, then your jaw muscles and forehead (clench your eyes closed). Last, place your entire body in a state of tension all at once and then relax.
3.  Repeat step one for a minute or so to allow yourself to settle.
4. Then begin counting down from 5. Mentally visualize the number and mentally hear it as well. Count each number 3-times and in your mind hear it getting softer each time (TEN, Ten, ten) as if it were fading away into the distance. Do this with each number as you count down towards absolute silence at zero (0). Also set up a mental paradox loop to get your left-brain to cooperate with the procedure. For example “As I progressively count down and relax, I go deeper and deeper within myself. The deeper I go, the better I feel and the better I feel, the deeper I go.” When you get to zero, just focus your awareness inside your body about two inches below your belly button and continue your “Mmmm” & “Ahhhh” breathing. You can also listen to and/or feel your heart beat or focus on your lower stomach expanding and contracting, etc.. Any thoughts that arise, just let them pass through you like a breeze of wind.
5. Repeat a second countdown beginning at the number 10. This time count each number one time only. Feel yourself going deeper and deeper into your inner self. 10, 9, 8…. “deeper and deeper” 7,6,5…. “deeper and deeper” 4,3,2…. “deeper and deeper” 1,0 “Mmmmmmm” “Ahhhhhhhhhh”
6.  From this point forward, you will simply continue to perform deep breathing as described in step one. It is suggested that you use a square breathing method, such as Inhale for a count of approximately 4 seconds, retain and hold the breath in for 4 seconds, exhale for 4 seconds and withhold the inhalation for 4 seconds prior to inhaling. You can also mentally count out this process initially, but with continued practice, it will become natural and automatic. This is a type of alchemical breathing, which rejuvenates the mind and body.
