Brian G. Johnson’s 300 Internet Marketers

Alan — Sat, 09 Apr 2011 11:41:17 +0000

I’m super charged and extraordinarily thrilled at this time to introduce Brian G. Johnson’s 300 Internet Marketers which has just been released and in which I am partaking.

Who is Brian G. Johnson?

Unless you are a newcomer to the Internet world, you would have somehow and by some means come across Brian G. Johnson’s name. After all, Brian is a highly successful Internet, affiliate and niche marketer who’s been around long enough to publish countless videos, to write a whole slew of articles, to launch many hundreds of websites and to developed best selling IM products such as Revenue Domains Exposed, SEOPress Formula, Commission Ritual, Auto Content Cash and Halloween Super Affiliate.

Through his products and under his tutelage, Brian has coached, guided and mentored thousands of students with a rather large percentage of them reaching and surpassing their own personal online goals. As a matter of fact, the Warrior Forum is filled with confirming testimonials that speak volumes about Brian’s powerful methods and his skillful teaching techniques.

Brian has gained a clear understanding of the nature of the vast Internet marketing arena, he has experienced its many aspects and has then found the precise strategies in order to build his financial empire ($500K in 2010) which he is passionate about sharing with others. And so, Brian provides students only with those powerful techniques and most effective methods which have proven to truly work on his own businesses and therefore will also work on theirs.

What is 300 Internet Marketers?

Being launched on April 29, 2011, 300 Internet Marketers is Brian’s newest IM product on which he has been working for the past six months. It is an intensive coaching program that will make a huge difference in the financial lives of 300 lucky members in 2011 and far beyond.

Why 300? Because Brian is limiting membership to just 300!

Just like with all his other products where Brian over-delivers with step by step tutorial videos, easy to follow PDF documentation and close mentoring accessibility, 300 Internet Marketers has all that a much more.

However, it is also the most unique of all of Brian’s programs and, as a matter of fact, it is also different from anything else that is found on the Internet for the following reasons:

•    Running between April 2011 and on through August 2011, 300 Internet Marketers is a 5-month mentoring program. Nothing of that equal exists online today.
•    Taking students to much higher levels, 300 Internet Marketers will teach how to build mega online businesses that have the potential to generate 6 figure incomes.
•    With 300 Internet Marketers as a tool, Brian will instruct members how to become high level super affiliates, how to build mammoth mailing lists as well as how to create and then sell their own products and/or services.

In short, Brian G. Johnson’s 300 Internet Marketers will transform 300 members to online Spartan heroes who will triumph over their competitors in any niche and across any marketplace.

Chinese Stress Balls – Great For Stress Relief!

Alan — Fri, 08 Oct 2010 10:05:34 +0000

Chinese Stress Balls – Relax!

It’s a difficult world we live in and we all get stressed every so often. This can be harmful on your health if it is allowed to build up. Stress relief balls have been used for centuries to help people cope with the stress of everyday living.

These balls are also known as Chinese exercise balls.health balls or Baoding balls. In China they are often called ‘Miracle Balls.’ In fact, they’ve been around since the Ming Dynasty – quite a while! Chinese people believe that they bring all kinds of therapeutic relief, especially in the area of relaxation and stress relief.

Usually, these balls are about the size of golf balls, but you can get them in various sizes to suit your hand size. It’s best to start with a small set of balls and work up to larger ones. Commonly, the balls range from about 1.25 to 2 inches in diameter.

They are constructed out of colored metal and always come in pairs. The colors are often in traditional colors. The Chinese Stress Balls also make a kind of jingling noise when you move them around in your hand. The idea is to rotate the balls in your palm – clockwise and then anti-clockwise.

The sounds emitted from the balls are soothing and so are useful for deep meditation.

You’re probably wondering how Chinese Balls can alleviate your stress symptoms! In fact, they work in a very simple way. The movement of the balls stimulates acupuncture points in your hand and this in turn affects the various organs of the body (in a positive way). This then seems to stimulate the flow of energy throughout the body and is beneficial when you are feeling particularly stressed

If you are feeling worried or tired, Chinese Stress Balls can also help by lowering your blood pressure. They can even help with arthritis! Emotional stress also seems to be released when handling the balls. Practitioners often use visualization to enhance the effect of Chinese Stess Balls The idea is to imagine the stress moving from the hands and body into the balls. With practice, this becomes even more effective and stress relief becomes a thing of the past.

Using these balls is just one way to alleviate stress. However, they can be used in other ways and many people have their own tips and tricks for greater effect. It’s certainly worth giving it a shot if you are under pressure and feeling stressed.

Stress is, unfortunately, widespread in society and with family and work pressures, this is set to rise.

We’ve gathered together some of the best stress relief and relaxation products together for you to examine. The systems and tools can all be bought online and can help to bring relief from the pressures of modern living. Have a look and see what you think:

Have a browse through them all and let me know what you think.

Whatever method of stress relief you choose, remember life is for living. Try to live in the ‘now’ rather than thinking about the future all the time. Look around you and take notice of the little things.

Namaste!

Your Own Personal Stress Management Technique

Alan — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 19:30:50 +0000

My personal stress management technique has got to be very
powerful, whatever it is. Doesn’t seem that there is any let
up in stress these days, does there?

However, once I give some thought to where stress exists, or
is experienced, and the sequence of events leading to the
physiology of stress, a body full of hormones and
neurotransmitters more appropriate to combating an attack
than the board room or the living room, I can recognize that
there are some interventions I can work on to change the
chemistry inside my body.

I can change my thoughts, which will change my feelings,
which will give me more time to make choices about my
behavior.

And according to Dr. Daniel Amen, relaxation actually
activates the higher perceptual centers of my brain for
better decision making.

That is a good payoff for learning a stress management
technique.

Perhaps the most important stress management technique to
learn is that my thoughts, my interpretations of sensory
data, are what brings the chemistry of stress into my body.

And that process happens very fast, about twice as fast as I
can blink my eyes.

And one stressful thought can bring on another and another,
and before a second has elapsed, (that is right, one second)
I may have generated a sequence of thoughts that leave me
filled with enough adrenalin and cortisol to move me into
distress rather than eustress, and then I can keep myself
there long enough to begin to impact my brain fitness, my
heart fitness, and the rest of my body too.

My first really successful stress management technique was
to say the phrase; “Gratitude is the attitude” to myself,
and that worked, because someone always has it worse off
than I do, but the relief I felt when saying that phrase to
myself was short lived.

Somewhere I had picked up the idea that I was supposed to
have long periods of contentment, sort of like a drug
experience, and that is not how your body normally works.

In other words, I need to practice gratitude frequently,
starting with thoughts (and/or breathing) and my body will
eventually follow along and learn that the physiology of
contentment is what I want it to learn, and stay near.

In my early days of seeking a seeking a stress management
technique, I looked at many different tools, and there are a
lot of good meditative and cognitive tools out there,
including Open Focus, Transcendental Meditation, working
out, but for my money, I want a tool that does not require
me to stop what I am doing and sit quietly meditating.

In other words it has to be usable while I am going about my
daily business, and of all the tools I have tried, the one
that has worked best for me is learning how to do the heart
rate variability biofeedback.

I can feel the change using heart rate variability
biofeedback, and since I learned the skill on a computer, I
know that my physiology changes when I do the Quick
Coherence Technique.

So when I feel myself getting critical or judgemental or
snappy, (and I still use gratitude thoughts by the way) I
can switch my thoughts to the area around my heart, place my
children’s faces there, and feel my heart become more
coherent, and since I have some experience with Heartmath
heart rate variability biofeedback, my body switches back to
a cooperative and affiliative physiology within a heart beat.

Not quite the speed of thought but close, and that tool has
saved me a lot of regrets over the years. I have been able
to operate from a heartfelt cooperation and affiliation more
and more often.

In fact, the practice of heart rate variability has given
me a felt experience of the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
concept that you do not have to accept thoughts as truths.
You can dispute them. In other words, I can fill myself with
love and then think one distressing thought and fill myself
with the feeling of stress or despair, and then think the
loving thought, and feel the love come right back into my
body. You can even dispute the thoughts that make you feel
good, if you want.

So we have managed to move ourselves from the realm of the
external making me feel stressed, because it is my thought
about the external that brings on the adrenalin and cortisol
inside my body, and using and some mindfulness coupled with
some practice, I can steer my physiology like I steer my car
with thousands of small adjustments.

In fact, I may get so good at heart rate variability
biofeedback that it runs in the background of my brain,
popping into the foreground for a heart beat’s worth of
attention on an as-needed basis.

It is important to recognize for some folks that heart rate
variability biofeedback is a learned skill and does not
override any basic biological process. In other words, I can
still activate my fight or flight chemistry if needed for a
real attack.

If you want to check out the benefits of having your own
personal stress management technique for your neurogenesis,
or the growth of new brain cells, then read Brainfit for
Life by Simon Evans,Ph.D. and Paul Burghardt,Ph.D.

Hope you enjoy your coherence!

Beat Panic Attacks Today And Do It Naturally

Alan — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 06:47:59 +0000

A low number of individuals understand the adverse
consequences of what little daily stress and anxiety can
lead to if they don’t start controlling and defeating panic
attacks, and that they can do it naturally. Some of the
indicators can include nervous-looking, a feeling of
sickness, elevated heart rate, and also difficulty inhaling
and exhaling, once you recognize them, it’s a starting place
to get started controlling them. Anxiety and panic attacks
are usually triggered by really stressful situations, such
as a congested room or small enclosed space.

To find really effective panic cures, you simply must begin
by analyzing yourself, and everything you have to do in
order to get over the attacks as fast as possible. Nobody
needs to be prone to the difficulty breathing as well as
wooziness, and if you are among the many individuals who
wants a solution right now, then you should explore deep
into your matters to obtain the solution. Anxiety and panic
attacks can often be reduced by first figuring out which
kind of instances cause you to be the most stressed and
prone to have an anxiety attack. Once you start to do this,
you’ll be much closer to finally stopping your attacks
completely.

To begin with the process of naturally conquering panic
attacks, think about one specific scenario that may be
causing your blood pressure to skyrocket sending you into a
real anxiety attack. This is usually done by someone who
really wants to prevent their anxiety attacks before they
happen. As you observe yourself giving in to pressure,
breathe deeply and think about the worst type of possible
end result of what can happen by allowing the stress to take
over. You are the one in control always, and it’s critical
that you know and understand this. With repetition like a
mantra or an affirmation, you begin taking over the power
over your body and mind, as a result defeating these attacks
forever.

Employing different inhaling and exhaling exercises can
easily put you into a much more peaceful and soothed state
of mind. Doing this you’ll create a good breathing technique
of your own which you can make use of in a scenario which you
know will cause a panic attack. You want to have many methods
of letting you conquer panic attacks, which are nothing more
then our own interpretations of what happens to us. You can
also try counting to ten or twenty while you’re deep
breathing. This could be a very effective method to calm you
down in the moment if you feel like you haven’t any control
over yourself.

Whenever contemplating every one of the ways of controlling
anxiety attacks efficiently, you must additionally look at
the power of meditation. You’ll quickly see that the signs
and symptoms of emotional stress and uneasiness begin fading
away when you get into a more calm state of mind. Give
thought to the internal conversation you might be having, in
order to develop a plan of coping with them, in the course of
and prior to starting feeling weighed down . and anxious.
Often times panic attacks emerge because of the subconscious
fears, so it’s always a good idea to focus on just what
bothers you in most aspects of life in the time of
meditation sessions. The most effective methods to cure just
about any anxiety or anxiety and panic attacks is to to take
some time to think about all the amazing things in your life
that you love, get pleasure from and enjoy. Doing this is a
natural way to remove tension, nervousness, and panic
attacks.

Herbal Remedies for Anxiety

Alan — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 08:25:19 +0000

Taking medication isn’t for everyone and if you’re the type
of person who doesn’t like to take medication, you should be
aware that there are herbal remedies for anxiety. No one is
immune to the mental and physical trouble that anxiety can
bring on but none of us have to put up with living that way.
The longer that the anxiety goes on without treatment, the
worse the physical symptoms can become. See if you recognize
the following side effects of having anxiety.

Fast, rapid breathing is one side effect, heart feeling like
it’s beating too fast is another. Feeling an almost
overwhelming sense of doom is how some sufferers describe
what they’re going through while battle a tense, nauseated
tightness in the pit of the stomach.

Tense muscles and having trouble paying attention and
focusing on even simple tasks are some of the problems that
anxiety can cause. You can have all the symptoms or a few
and they can come when a trigger that flips the anxious
feelings is tripped.

There are many health problems that can cause anxiety so
before you assume that yours is normal anxiety, go see your
doctor. Health problems that can make anxiety develop are
trouble with the heart-an undiagnosed heart condition or
disorder, anemia, diabetes and problems with the thyroid
gland. Once you’ve been checked and ruled those out, then
you can take herbal remedies for anxiety and find successful
treatment.

For hundreds of years, herbs have been used to help heal a
variety of ailments. While many over the counter and
prescription drugs have dangerous side effects, when used
the right way, herbs can be safely ingested.

If you’re not sure which herb to use for anxiety or how much
of it to use, seek the guidance of a doctor who specializes
in alternative medicine. You’ll find numerous doctors who
practice naturopathic medicine and you can look them up
under holistic practitioners too.

Anxiety and stress are bonded together much like a circle of
metal. You can’t see where one part ends and the other
begins. Stress is not bad as long as it’s not overpowering.
Some stress that can be helpful for you is the stress of a
project deadline. It keeps you steadily working toward
meeting that goal and that’s not a bad stress to feel. But
relentless stress can be counterproductive.

Herbal remedies for anxiety can relieve you not only of the
anxiety but also of the stress you might be feeling. Herbals
can help you to relax and put you in a better frame of mind
as you seek to find the underlying reason that’s causing the
trouble.

Biofeedback is another very powerful tool to have in your
anti-anxiety tool box. Biofeedback technology has grown more
and more sophisticated in the last 30 years, and it is
possible now to train both brain waves and heart rate
variability using computerized programs.

Biofeedback is learned, so it is much more permanent than
binaural beat tones for example, or visualizations.

I have been using the emWave heart rate variability
biofeedback tool personally and professionally for quite
some time, and I think it is an excellent tool to use with
herbal remedies like green tea, with l-theanine.

When I first bought the heart rate variability biofeedback
tool, I had no idea how long it would take for me to learn
how to use it.

Turns out it took 6 one-half hour practices for me to feel
confident that I could induce the relaxation (and is it
relaxing) physiology without being hooked up to the
computer. In other words, whenever I feel stress or anxiety,
I can use my cue thought and breathing tools, and feel the
relaxation replace the stress and anxiety.

The important thing to remember is that I need to continue
to pay attention to the eustress/distress continuum and
adjust my breathing and thinking tools regularly, sort of
like how I steer a car, with many tiny adjustments.

In the background of your thinking, you might remind
yourself often that too much adrenaline and cortisol
inhibits your brain’s ability to grow new brain cells daily,
which is called neurogenesis.

As far as I am concerned, bigger is better when it comes to
brains, so I will learn to pay attention to my thinking and
feeling, and I will use herbal remedies for anxiety, like
green tea, which is also full of antioxidants, another
important part of the brain fitness continuum.

So remember, you can impact anxiety with herbs used as
directed, and they are really effective when included in a
brain fitness lifestyle. Here is to a bigger brain.

Choose The Best Essential Oil Diffuser For You

Alan — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 21:42:02 +0000

One of Nature’s greatest gifts to us are essential oils -
extracts from plants and flowers that smell wonderful, and
often have healthy benefits. Some oils promote relaxation.
Others energize people. And in some cases, they just make a
musty old room smell really wonderful. But essential oils
need a device that disperses them into the air, and that’s
where essential oil diffusers come in. Within minutes, these
devices can turn a humdrum room into a soothing abode.

Spas use them regularly as part of their therapeutic
services, such as during massages, scrubs, and facials. But
you don’t need to go to a high-priced spot in order to get
the benefits of aromatherapy. In fact, you can use essential
oils right in your own home and turn it into a relaxing
retreat from the world. The trick is, you need to know how
to choose the best essential oil diffuser for your purposes.

Candle diffuser – this version uses a bowl with a candle
inside. A few drops of oil are placed in the bowl, and the
heat from the flame causes the oil to evaporate into the
air.

Lamp rings — oil is dropped onto the ring and placed over
the lamp, and the heat from the electric bulb causes the oil
to evaporate and disperse through the air. However, these
types of diffusers should be used with caution because they
are hard to monitor and can lead to fires if too hot of a
bulb wattage is used.

Fan diffuser — this diffuser does not need heat. In order
to release the oil aroma, the oil is absorbed by a small
pad. The fan diffuser blows cool air across the pad,
dispersing the oils through the air.

Nebulizer – this diffuser has a motor at its base that turns
the oil into a vapor that wafts into the air. Like the fan
diffuser, no heat source is used in this method.

Electric nebulizer — this diffuser uses both a fan and heat
to give off oil aromas to the entire room.

Your choice of diffuser will depend somewhat on the
environment you plan to use it in. For instance, you might
not want an extra heat source if you live in an extremely
dry, hot area. Also, if you have small children or are
unable to continuously monitor the diffuser, it might be
best to avoid the diffusers with open flames or heat
sources.

On the other hand, heat diffusers offer one of the easiest
and most practical ways to disperse essential oils through
the air. If you don’t have an electrical source, then the
nebulizer that plugs into a wall socket isn’t going to do
you much good!

Now that you know the various types of diffusers available,
you can make an informed choice and start to fill your house
with the relaxing or energizing aromas you like best.
Purchase a diffuser today, start to experiment with
essential oils, in turn your home into a relaxing retreat
from the stresses of everyday life!

Chakra Healing Meditation

Alan — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 21:41:25 +0000

In the language of Sanskrit the word chakra means wheel of
light. According to the ancient Vedic tradition there are
seven spinning wheels of light spaced between the base of
our spine and the crown of our head. Each chakra
representing a different aspect of our human nature.

Singing different tones attributed to each chakra makes it
easy to feel where they are located. The seven different
tones are sometimes arranged in a chromatic scale, generally
that of C major. This is a Western precept gained from
measuring the frequencies of the rainbow colours attributed
to each chakra. There are varying thoughts regarding the
notes of each chakra, some saying the Root chakra is an A
note and others saying it is a B note. Staying with our
Western idea that the chakras are in C Major, the First
chakra would be the note of C, the Second would be D, the
Third an E, the Fourth an F, the Fifth a G, the Sixth an A
and the seventh would be a B note.

The Chakras

The First or ‘Root’ Chakra (MULADHARA) is located at the
base of spine. Its element is Earth and it is Red in colour.
The sense this chakra represents is smell and, energetically
it represents grounding and security. The tone that
resonates with this chakra is ‘UH’, or in the Vedic
tradition LAM. Crystals and Gemstones for this chakra are
Smoky Quartz, Garnet, Alexandrite, Ruby, Agate, Bloodstone,
Onyx, Tiger’s Eye and Rose Quartz.

The Second or ‘Sacral’ chakra (SVADISTHANA), also known as
the Hara, is located between the root and navel. Its element
is Water and it is Orange in colour. The sense this chakra
represents is taste, energetically it represents sexuality
and life energy. The tone that resonates with this chakra is
‘OO’, or in the Vedic tradition, VAM. Crystals and Gemstones
for this chakra are Amber, Citrine, Topaz, Aventurine,
Moonstone and Jasper.

The Third or ‘Solar Plexus’ chakra (MANIPURA) is located at
the navel. Its element is Fire and it is Yellow in colour.
The sense this chakra represents is sight and, energetically
it represents ego and self esteem. The tone that resonates
with this chakra is ‘OH’, or in the Vedic tradition RAM.
Crystals and Gemstones for this chakra are Yellow Citrine,
Apatite, Calcite, Kunzite, Rose Quartz, Iron Pyrites (Fool’s
Gold), Topaz and Malachite.

The Fourth chakra (ANAHATA) is located at the heart. Its
element is Air and it is Green in colour. The sense this
chakra represents is touch and, energetically it represents
love. The tone that resonates with this chakra is ‘AH’, or
in the Vedic tradition YAM. Crystals and Gemstones for this
chakra are Emerald, Green Calcite, Amber, Azurite,
Chrysoberyl, Jade, Rose and Watermelon Tourmalines.

The Fifth chakra (VISUDHA) is located at the throat. Its
element is Ether and it is Blue in colour. The sense this
chakra represents is hearing and, energetically it
represents communication. The tone that resonates with this
chakra is ‘EH’ (or sometimes ‘MEM’), or in the Vedic
tradition HAM. Crystals and Gemstones for this chakra are
Lapis Lazuli, Aquamarine, Sodalite, Turquoise and Sapphire.

The Sixth chakra (AJNA) is located at the Third eye. Its
element is Light and it is Violet in colour. The sense this
chakra represents is light and, energetically it represents
insight and imagination. The tone that resonates with this
chakra is ‘EE’, or in the Vedic tradition SHAM. Crystals and
Gemstones for this chakra are Amethyst, Purple Apatite,
Azurite, Calcite, Pearl, Sapphire, Blue and White Fluorite.

The Seventh or ‘Crown’ chakra (SAHASRARA) is located at the
top of the head. It is Indigo in colour. Energetically this
chakra represents transcendence. The tone that resonates
with this chakra is ‘I’ (EYE) or in the Vedic tradition AUM.
Crystals and Gemstone for this chakra are Diamond, White
Tourmaline, White Jade, Snowy Quartz and Celestite.

Journeying through the Seven chakras

We start with the Root chakra; this is all about survival,
food and shelter. Once we have this sorted in our lives we
move onto the second chakra where we experience sex and life
energy. So having moved from a state of survival we then move
into a state of sexuality. We then move up into a sense of
‘self’ with the Third chakra. This is an ‘I will’ or ‘I
want’ mentality. Having connected with our ‘selves’ and our
ego’s, we can then to move to the heart chakra where we can
love and move beyond our selfish motives. Moving up to the
throat chakra we experience communication, not only spoken
but also telepathy. Naturally we then move up to our Third
eye which is all about insight and meditation. This is the
point where we transcend our physical and emotional needs
and move beyond to experience meditation. This leads nicely
onto the crown chakra where we experience Nirvana or
enlightenment.

Experiencing Your Chakras

By singing the chakra tones we are literally singing
ourselves back in tune with existence. To feel and
experience your chakras, you will need to sit in a quiet,
meditative space and chant the relevant tones for each
chakra. It is a good idea to start at the First or root
chakra by chanting ‘UH’. Some find it easier to visualise
the colour of the chakras while chanting. Repeat the ‘UH’
chant for several minutes before moving on to the Second
chakra, chanting ‘OO’. Continue to move up through all the
chakras, and after several minutes chanting the ‘I’ for the
Crown chakra, move back down through all the chakras to the
First or Root chakra.

You will experience each chakra as a swirling, circular
energy, hence the name ‘the wheel of light’. After chanting
up and down through your chakras, it is a good idea to sit
quietly. This is a fantastic meditation that relaxes and
replenishes our being.
