The methods explained by Gregory Mitchell in this course can make a real difference in the way you feel and how you perceive the world. I know this from personal experience having used the techniques daily for a few months. That was 10 years ago and the benefits have remained with me. The breathing techniques brought me a much greater sense of aliveness, and the methods of improving vision gave benefits of a relaxed state of mind, feeling more centered and aware.
Like all Mind Development training, the new skills required first an unlearning of bad habits acquired throughout a lifetime, and that demands persistent application of the exercises until the new better habits have been installed. Of course we all start out incompetent with new skills but don't let that discourage you. Keep practicing, being content with small improvements. Over time these add up and suddenly you'll find you make a breakthrough where the skill is acquired and you can use it in everyday life without conscious effort.
Because the various exercises complement each other, it is also a good idea to work a while on one exercise, then move on to the next ones; finally when you return to the first ones they will seem easier and you can develop them further. This 'cyclic' approach to learning is highly effective and I recommend you work through the course at least three times.
Why do we normally try to see with such fixed, intense concentration? Why do we work so hard at something that is actually very easy? Perhaps it is because as children learning to write, we are put under some pressure to try hard to do well, and we become anxious about making possible mistakes. As a result our eyes tighten, our vision contracts and we actually see less and become less capable - so we have to look even harder. Practicing the techniques in this course allows this intense focusing to give way to a wider view that actually allows us to see and understand far more than before, to be more open to our personal intuition and better able to express it.
Awareness is the process of experiencing every moment of life as fully as possible. Greater awareness does not happen when we narrow our attention; rather it is an expansive and effortless process. The more present we are in the moment, the more satisfaction and love we can both give and receive. I trust this course will do a great deal to enhance your quality of life and to prepare you for further Mind Development courses, which will open up incredible pathways ahead for you.
