Peruvian Tantra Rainbow Meditation

Vibrating Sound
Vibrating or resonating sound was used by many ancient cultures to focus the mind and project intent. When you vibrate a sound, you cause the bones and spaces in your body to resonate like a musical instrument, and that vibration is projected throughout the cosmos. The word "vibrate" is used to describe the molecular effect on the quantum field resulting from using the body's natural resonating chambers to amplify sound. Using the full resonance of the body takes some practice. Most of us are unaware of this, but there is a lot of space inside our heads, and I mean that in the kindest possible way... 

Vibrating a sound like "AH" like in "cup", the space in which sound can echo and build resonance in your body exists in your lungs, throat, mouth, nose, sinuses, and forehead (the frontal sinus forms a hollow space where the 3rd eye is situated.) By experimenting, you will find that allowing the sound to resonate in the higher chambers of the head involves learning to isolate and control the muscle at the back of the tongue, which directs the passage of air from the lungs through the nose, through the mouth, through both, or through neither.

You can easily experience this by making a long "AH" sound, letting the sound come out of your nose and mouth. To test if this happening, block your mouth with your hand, you should hear a "MMM" sound coming from your nose. Then hold your nose, you should here the "AH" from your mouth. When you have both, you have full access to the resonant potential of your body.

The Peruvian Tantra Rainbow Meditation

Sitting comfortably, shoulders relaxed, take your attention to the bottom of your spine. Visualise or imagine a RED ball of light pulsing in your coccyx, connecting you with the Earth, half in the ground, half in your body. The light grows stronger with sound. 
The sound is "EH" like in "egg". On each exhalation:

• Vibrate the "EH" sound using the whole of your exhalation
• Let the note that you choose be comfortable for your voice
• Squeeze the muscles of the pelvic floor (muscle group used to hold in urination). This will keep your mind focused on the Root Chakra, encompassing this muscle group. 
• Visualise or imagine the red light shining brighter in your Root Chakra with each breath
• Do 10 resonant breaths 
• RELAX THE PELVIC FLOOR EACH TIME YOU INHALE

Keeping your shoulders relaxed, centre your attention just below your naval. Visualise or imagine a bright ORANGE ball of light pulsing between your hips. The light grows stronger with sound.
The sound is "AH" like in "cup" On each exhalation:

• Vibrate the "AH" sound using the whole exhalation
• Let the note that you choose be comfortable for your voice higher or lower than the previous sound.
• Squeeze the pelvic floor (relax each time you inhale)
• Visualise or imagine the red light from your Root rising up your spine, shifting frequency as it rises, becoming an orange light shining brighter in your Sacral Chakra with each breath.
• Do this 10 times

Bring your attention up to your Solar Plexus. Visualise or imagine a bright YELLOW ball of light pulsing at the bottom of your sternum. The light grows stronger with sound.
The sound is "EE" like in "sweet" On each exhalation:

• Vibrate the "EE" sound using the whole exhalation
• Let the note that you choose be comfortable for your voice higher or lower than the previous sound.
• Squeeze the pelvic floor (relax each time you inhale)
• Visualise or imagine the red light from your Root rising up your spine, shifting frequency as it rises, becoming a yellow light shining brighter in your Solar Plexus Chakra with every breath.
• 10 breaths

Take a few breaths if you need to recover. Relax your shoulders.
Take your attention to your heart. Visualise or imagine a bright GREEN ball of light pulsing in your chest. The light grows stronger with sound.
The sound is "OO" like in "moon" On each exhalation:

• Vibrate the "OO" sound using the whole exhalation
• Let the note that you choose be comfortable for your voice higher or lower than the previous sound.
• Squeeze the pelvic floor (relax each time you inhale)
• Visualise or imagine the red light from your Root rising up your spine, shifting frequency as it rises, becoming a green light shining brighter in your Heart Chakra with every breath.
• 10 breaths

Bring your attention up to your throat. Visualise or imagine a bright BLUE ball of light pulsing in your throat. The light grows stronger with sound.
The sound is "AU" like in "borne" On each exhalation:

• Vibrate the "AU" sound using the whole exhalation 
• Let the note that you choose be comfortable for your voice higher or lower than the previous sound.
• Squeeze the pelvic floor (relax each time you inhale)
• Visualise or imagine the red light from your Root rising up your spine, shifting frequency as it rises, becoming a blue light shining brighter in your Throat Chakra with every breath.
• 10 breaths

Allow your attention to settle on your forehead. Visualise or imagine a bright INDIGO ball of light pulsing in your head. The light grows stronger with sound.
The sound is "MM". On each exhalation:

• Vibrate the "MM" sound using the whole exhalation
• Let the note that you choose be comfortable for your voice higher or lower than the previous sound.
• Squeeze the pelvic floor (relax each time you inhale)
• Visualise or imagine the red light from your Root rising up your spine, shifting frequency as it rises, becoming an indigo light shining brighter in your Third Eye Chakra with every breath.
• 10 breaths

Let your awareness rise out of the top of your head. Visualise or imagine a bright VIOLET ball of light pulsing above your head. The light grows stronger with sound.
The sound is "ZZ". On each exhalation:

• Vibrate the "ZZ" sound using the whole exhalation
• Let the note that you choose be comfortable for your voice higher or lower than the previous sound.
• Squeeze the pelvic floor (relax each time you inhale)
• Visualise or imagine the red light from your Root rising up your spine, shifting frequency as it rises, becoming a violet light shining brighter in your Crown Chakra with every breath.
• 10 breaths

Now activate the whole system, starting with the Root and going up to the Crown, remembering the colour and position of each Chakra, slowly at first, then faster as you remember the sequence. You can use the same note for all the Chakras, or, if you know solfah, (doh ray me fah so la tee doh) you can use the sequence as follows. (The tune is the same as a chiming clock.)

EH AH EE OO AU MM ZZ 
me doh ray so so ray me doh

Do this 10 times


The meditation can take anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour or more, depending on how long you choose to work on each Chakra. It is a wonderful prelude to silent meditation. Enjoy!

Hypnotherapy for Weight Loss and Emotional Eating

“Only about 20% percent of weight problems are solved by correcting the person's diet.”

Dr. J. Kappas

If you belong to the 80% that is reading this article, you've counted carbs and lost count of carbs; you've bought salad ingredients and found them getting old in the fridge; you've booked a gym membership and hardly used it; you've applied force of will power and lost weight, only to gain it back as if with a vengeance; you may even be eating the perfect diet, but it seams to make no difference. Do you ever get the feeling that your body just WANTS TO BE FAT?

This feeling caused Jon Gabriel, an American business man who would become one of the worlds leading authorities on weight-loss, to search for a reason why his body held the weight of 185kg and would not lose the weight, no matter what diet he tried or how hard he exercised. Gabriel's research led him into the field of hypnotherapy and the power of subconscious belief systems. He set out to prove a hunch, using himself as the test subject, and two years later his weight had come down to 90kg without any sign of ever having been fat. More than 10 years later, he currently maintains this weight and runs international workshops in which he teaches hypnosis and transformational thinking to overcome obesity.

Jon Gabriel's theory is ground-breaking in many fields: psychology, weight loss, hypnotherapy, even neuro-chemistry, in that his “hunch” was that he was subconsciously afraid of something. Without understanding the nature of his fear, Gabriel was able to replace it with a feeling of safety, using visualisation and hypnosis - eventually convincing his subconscious mind to let go of his fear. It took a little while longer than a restrictive diet would take, but the results are permanent. Andrew has received coaching by Jon Gabriel, and uses The Gabriel Method as the basis for the NBSR weight loss program.

How It Works

The primitive area of the subconscious mind is responsible for survival, the “fight/flight” response. Should your subconscious defences become active due to fear of a situation or person, your metabolism changes. Leptin, a hormone released in the duodenum (small intestine) makes you feel "full". The thyroid gland, situated over the sternum, regulates your metabolism. Under-activity of the thyroid or hypothyroidism, decelerates the metabolism, whereas over-activity or hyperthyroidism has an accelerating effect. From a behaviourist perspective, both leptin and the thyroid gland are members of the autonomic (subconscious) nervous system, and are therefore controlled by the subconscious mind.

F.A.T. Programs

Changes in the metabolism, according to prevailing subconscious belief systems, occur thus:

If the person believes he or she can fight the situation, (fight-response dominance) the metabolism will decelerate to allow the body to become physically heavier, storing fat so as to be more massive, in preparation to resist the attack. If the person believes he or she can outrun the situation, (flight-response dominance) the metabolism will accelerate to allow the body to become physically leaner and lighter, so as to be able able to run for long periods without fatigue or damage to the joints.

Additionally, climate plays a role in subconscious belief systems:

In a warm climate where food is abundant, for example the Equatorial regions, the average metabolism is accelerated to facilitate hunting and escaping from predators. Conversely, in a cold climate where food is scarce, for example the Arctic regions, the average metabolism is decelerated to store up fat reserves that protect from the cold, and insures enough energy to survive for days without eating.

In his book “The Gabriel Method”, Jon refers to these subconscious programs as Famine And Temperature programs, or F.A.T. programs, and in this weight loss process, you will discover how to un-install the subconscious F.A.T. programs, rebuild your self-confidence, develop an affinity towards healthy foods and exercise, and learn how to allow your body to become the body that you want.

How the NBSR treatment combines with The Gabriel Method

• Since the method was conceived and developed by Jon Gabriel, it is essential to read his book "The Gabriel Method" to understand the theory and reasons behind your body's unwillingness to let you be your ideal weight.

• The identification and analysis of stress factors, and establishment of practical solutions, addresses the original cause of your weight gain. In cases such as past abuse or trauma, the cause can be clear, and your affirmation for daily use is immediately constructed according to your suggestibility. (see Kappasinian Hypnotherapy)

• In cases where the cause is not known or is unclear, Dream Work is used to identify it. The material in your sessions causes your subconscious mind to question the cause of your weight retention during dreaming. Dream Work teaches you to remember your dreams, so that you will remember when the cause is revealed.

• The Gabriel Method is essentially guided self hypnosis, so the personal affirmation plays a principal role in achieving your ideal weight. Your personal affirmation is updated whenever there is new information, or a deeper knowledge of the cause. NBSR Self Hypnosis keys into your own personal way of hearing, much like NLP, to increase your confidence and passion for doing the things in life that you love doing, and enjoy doing them.

• Hypnotherapy for hypnotic rehearsal and reverse dreaming, guides you through the material in your affirmation and gives you reference memories for your self hypnosis. Jon Gabriel's visualisation CD is introduced during hypnosis to create an association, so that when you listen to the CD at home you will go into hypnosis. As this process is recommended right before you go to sleep, there is no danger of staying hypnotised. (When you sleep, your mind goes much deeper than in hypnosis, so the hypnosis state will break naturally when you wake the following morning.)

• Binaural Beats induce the alpha state during hypnosis and help your subconscious mind to feel comfortable imagining your ideal weight. This is sometimes more difficult than it sounds, because your subconscious mind does not want you to lose weight at this time, so it needs encouragement.

• You will receive your own visualisation CD “The Gabriel Method” by permission of Jon Gabriel, for use at home. (duration 22 minutes) The CD is Jon's voice over a wonderful, relaxing Binaural Beats sound track, so you naturally become more familiar with the material on the CD. You will receive this visualisation CD at no extra charge, by permission of Jon Gabriel.

When practised correctly, this treatment is guaranteed to cause a positive change in your belief systems and your behaviour. If you have practised these methods according to NBSR specifications given to you in your treatments, and you can not see a positive change in your attitude or behaviour after 60 days, you will receive 100% of your money back, guaranteed.
