PATHS - Unbelievable Results

[Aaron]

Synchronicity has been a facination of mine for many years. It is just one of those things that sticks in the mind as being something that is just too weird to just be some chance occurance. Sometimes synchronistic events are just written of as coincidence but personally, I believe a great majority of people believe there is something else at play.

The purpose of this brief paper is to explain in simple terms not only the effects but a simple explanation of the mechanics of what is really behind the fascinating occurances of synchronicity.

The below diagram is a simple model of synchronicity that shows the actual mechanism is.



The "Law of Attraction" or LOA works by the concept that whatever we think in our minds will be projected into the universe and the universe will cause those thoughts to attract like events, people, object and anything else that is similar back towards the person thinking the thoughts.

So, what is really happening?

The model as described in the illustration above is based on a conscious thinking mind, a subconscious mind and the collective unconscious mind.

The conscious thinking mind is the thinking thing that we use to actively think thoughts.

The subconscious mind is an automatic mind that takes input and automatically does thinking on its own in order to make reason out of the input data. It is also the go-between for the conscious and unconscious minds.

The collective unconscious mind is the infinite mind that contains all information in the past, present and future everywhere.

There are four people in the diagram listed as person A, B, C, & D. The C person isn't listed as C but is the person at the top of the diagram. These thinking minds are represented by the circles closest to the middle.

The semi-circles are the subconscious minds and the outer circle is the collective mind, which is known by many names. The dotted line on the outside indicates there is no border to its reach.

If person A has a desire X, which represents a person to attract, an incident, customers for a certain product or anything else, their thinking mind is obviously aware of it. For this example, let us say that the desire is a specific car they are looking for; A 1990 Honda Accord 5 speed with 100,000 miles or less for $1000 or less. The color blue is a plus.

The subconscious mind takes this desire X and "plants" it into the collective unconsciousness. X not only represents the overall desire but every detail attached to the desire.

The subconscious mind of every single human is actively scanning the collective unconsciousness or the matrix for anything that it resonates with.

Person C happens to have a 1990 Honda Accord and it is a 5 speed. It has about 110,000 miles and is $950 and it is dark blue. Person C's subconscious mind locks onto desire X from person A. Person A and person C's subconscious mind's are locked onto each other. Now what about the synchronicities?

The subconscious minds of A and C will INFLUENCE their conscious thinking minds to do whatever necessary to have them gravitate towards each other. C's mind knows that person A is in resonance with their desire to sell the car. A's mind knows that person C has the optimum match for their desire to buy a car.

Person A is influenced by their subconscious mind to get in a car and go to grocery store 123 to look at the bulletin board. There are many stores they will go checking at but at a particular time and location is where they just happened to "choose" to go to.

Person C is influenced by their subconscious mind to get in a car and drive to grocery store 123 to post a flyer about their car for sale. There are other stores that C will go to but at a particular time and location at this store is where they just happened to "choose" to go to.

A and C walks in and goes to the bulletin board at the same time. Person A is scanning the flyers. Person C posts their flyer. Person A sees this and is amazed at what a profound synchronicity. The exact car with the exact details and price and everything else are on that exact flyer. They shake hands and make a deal and go home smiling at such a wonderful experience.

Person C's subconscious mind INFLUENCED their conscious mind to choose what they chose to make it happen and so did person A's subconscious mind.

It is important to realize that each person is sending this signal into the collective at a certain strength. Just thinking it is maybe a strength of 10 for example. If they apply "Law of Attraction" principles such as Think & Grow Rich or The Secret Movie principles, it may be a strength of 25. If they really, really get into cranking up strong emotions, meditations, and so on, it may be 50. The stronger this signal strength, the more effective the effort will be at having other subconscious minds in the collective lock on to your desires to attract them or events to you. The stronger the signal, the stronger the ability to manifest with your mind. Some tools may even boost this strength up to 100 or more. These numbers are just as an example and do not reflect actual power indicators but the concept only.

Anyway, just something that is food for thought.

Sincerely,
Aaron

Just a few testimonials...there are plenty more online in different forums and YES you can ask them questions...

--------------

After one week on the PATHS program (business) I've kicked the "qualified" issue in the BUTT and sent it flying into outer space!

am attracting many more auditions then before. I have had 5 in the past week, that’s a really good number.

I have been on PATHS for almost five weeks and have had amazing results. Most of these results have been posted in other forums or threads but I post again here so it is easy to find.

First, I will talk about the sleep booster which comes built into each module. Previously, I had extreme difficulty sleeping an entire night. For the past five years or so, I would wake up around midnite and be up for two hours at least. I would often go downstairs and watch TV or get on the computer, whatever, in order to get sleepy again. I cannot remember the last time I slept the entire nite, unless I was on vacation.

By the beginning of my third week on PATHS, I was sleeping soundly the entire nite! If I wake up to use the bathroom, I fall back asleep again imediately. My husband Raymond just started PATHS last Sunday. His problem was waking up too early - around 3-4 am. He is now sleeping the whole nite and waking up at 5:30 am (which is his intent).

I have also been on the business productivily module (can't think of the exact name right now). My goal with this one was to make enough money in unexpected income to pay for my first month of PATHS. I did this easily in the first week. Since, I have had several new customers (I am in healthcare recruitment advertising). None of these customers have been huge, but they have all been new. I have been calling them for more than six months and just now they are beginning to take and return my calls.

The weight loss module has been amazing for me. I have lost a total of 12 pounds without even "trying." I am not on any diet. However, I am finding I am naturally choosing healthier foods and my portions have gotten way smaller - in some cases half of what I used to eat!

I just started the muscle-building module last nite. In the middle of the nite I had a bad leg cramp. Now, you may ask what is so good about that? I have not had a leg cramp in the middle of the nite since I used to work out all the time at the gym - many, many years ago. I did not work out yesterday, just watched the module.

I also just started the anti-gravity module yesterday. Raymond started it last week, and we both agree his skin looks so much healthier. He has sun damage to his skin (we are both sun-worshippers) and also has dry skin with lots of fine lines and wrinkles. His face now does not appear to be dry and the fine lines around his eyes definitely seem softer. Raymond has always been the biggest skeptic. However, when he saw the results I was getting, he decided to try PATHS himself. He is very pleased so far.

First I noticed that my meditations became deeper and more profound. It is like I am lit up from within....I also immediately noticed that my skin began to look more radient. By the second week my pores began to shrink and by the third week I noticed the tiny lines around my eyes began to vanish... AND... I WAS taking an antibiotic a few times a week for the past 2 years to keep my bouts of adult acne at bay. Since I started with the PATHS, I have not needed to take any at all!

I make my living as an artist and have been painting in watercolors for the past 20 years. Watercolors are very unforgiving and every step in the process needs to be planned. This means that each painting takes many, many hours to complete. When I started PATHS, my artwork took on a completly new and spontaneous direction with acrylics and I manifested a month-long gallery exhibit which opened last week. Within two days, 3 paintings were sold and yesterday I found out that another 2 were sold! I still love to paint my watercolors, but this new direction allows me to satisfy other artistic desires within myself as well as the desires of a different group of buyers. I also notice that I am more in the Now while I am painting, and, in general.

And my MOOD! WOW is my mood ever great! And consistantly so as well! I LOVE it! I am also noticing that little things do not irritate me as they used to. Before PATHS I would be inclined to let out one of those "long suffering sighs" if I noticed that my husband would do one of those "manly" things...You know....Like leaving his dirty socks on the floor or "forgetting" to sponge down the crumbs on kitchen counter after making himself a sandwich. Now things like that don't bother me at all and I have found myself actually whistling as I clean up after him! And now the sighs that I let out are not at all "long suffering".... if you know what I mean.... ; )

Also...my sense of humor seems to be enhanced... I had my husband on the floor laughing last week. That was fun! I am smiling just about all the time now and I am constantly feeling Grateful for EVERYTHING!

I started on the Successful Living 1 module just before Christmas 2006.
I was at a pretty low point in my life, because I hadn't had a job for
6 months and my funds had run out, bills were piling up and 2 teenage
boys to look after.

2 weeks into the module I had manifested a job. But there was an other
problem, transport. My oldest son, Lucas is on the ProJunior Surfing
Circuit in Australia and needed my car to get to his competitions. Yes
the module did it again for me, solved my problem. Next to the place
where I got the job, is a car dealer and he gave me a car which I can
pay off. How cool is that!!

After my first month I decided to renew SL 1 and also get the Insight
and Intuition module. Well that made a difference straight away. I am
dreaming again. I hadn't dreamt in something like 20 years, except on
the odd occasion, but now I dream just about every night. I also play
this little game at work. As I work in a petrol station I always try to
guess now which pump the car that is pulling in is going to use. And
yes, I am right 95% of the time.

Another little side effect of the SL1 was also very pleasant: I had
been a pot smoker for 30 years and now I just stopped. It wasn't my
intention to stop, I just did. Now how good is that.

The first night after I viewed my theater for the first time, I had a very vivid dream and remembered it for the first time in a long time. This was so astounding to me that I emailed Pamela or Ruth (can't remember which) and told them about it!I've been dreaming and remembering them every night since. Also, I started to just "know" stuff. Little stuff really, like what different peoples' motivations were and what choices to make that were best for me, etc. I am also getting marketing ideas for my business and website ideas are coming more easily. Another weird thing is that I'm having strange compulsions to organize everything and coming up with creative ways to do that. It's weird, because I'm not the most (physically) organized person , if you know what I mean. So....cool. That's handy. I also used to think that my business (launching my own brand of bottled water) was so much bigger that I was, but now I think that it's really managable and can see how it can be broken down into smaller, doable chunks. As for weight loss, I've only lost a couple of pounds, but I do notice that when I work out, I feel really good about it, better than before and I'm no longer scrounging around in the kitchen between supper and bedtime, my weakest time of day. Always a plus.........

I am on PATHS for 5 days now. I have seen amazing results. I am on a module to shed pounds. I am the kind of guy who cleans my plate always. I was raised thinking that if I didn't, a poor child on the other side of the world would suffer because of left over food!
Last night, we went out for dinner. I was actually a bit taken back when I noticed i left food on my plate. I stopped eating when I was full. I didn't think about it, it was not a concious choice,I was not trying to co-operate with PATHS, I just stopped eating.
To some of you who have not strugged with weight (I am 35 lbs overweight) this may seem silly or trite. To me it was a bit remarkable.
This morning I was invited to a breakfast. I would usually enjoy the eggs but it would be a sign of the apocolypse if I by passed the danish. I did, and did'nt really notice til I sat at my computer to write this.

As I mentioned before, each time I've contacted them (thinking that what I was asking was a long-shot or would be inconvenient and/or not possible at all), I have had such warm, loving - and speedy - responses, it made my heart soar : )

I totally agree...I was even so excited that I gave the wrong e-mail details in my initial set up - good grief!!...and it was sorted before I even logged out from the PATHS site.. Sweet!

[Beautiful Future]

Thanks to Aaron for answering so many of our questions about PATHS. Were it not for the fact that I started another approach to my issues a few days ago that I'm determined to give a fair and uncomplicated trial to, I'd probably have signed up for PATHS myself by now to see for myself. It certainly does sound intriguing. Who knows, though - maybe some other time.

Good luck to anyone with an investment in this - whether you're paying by the month, or own the company

[CdnNix]

Yes Aaron, thanks for the answers, I stand corrected on a number of things. Remember it was never meant to be cynical or malicious.

I'm really interested too, but as a student my resources aren't huge, I could afford it however I think I'll hold off for a bit, but if more people try it out I will definitely try it too. Good explanation on synchronizations too.

[Pagoda]

Colonel or Angela,

I wish you the best with this product.

My curiousity just won't go away. I don't mean to ask questions that sound negative, just looking for a little more info.

Perhaps one of you could do this for all of us. While you are watching one of your modules, press Alt-Print Screen simultaneously. This will take a screen capture of whatever is on the screen at the time.

Then when you are done watching your module, open Publisher, PowerPoint, Word, Photoshop or just about anything and Paste the screen capture into the program you opened. Then save what you have pasted as a picture and upload it here.

I would be very interested to see what the "translated subconscious" language looks like.

Plus if there is any information on what research was done to find this "translated subconscious" language I would love to see that as well.

[Pagoda]

P.S. I am sure Aaron is going to answer my request by telling me that looking at one screen capture will tell you nothing about the product. That the "translated subconscious" requires a dynamic coherent message that you only get through multiple images being shown to you in succession or something.

That is fine, I am still curious as to what it looks like though.

By the way, as I am sure you know Aaron, the people who tend to ask the most and "toughest" questions in the beginning will often be your biggest proponents and marketers once convinced.

I'd love for you to convince me, believe me I would.

[Elenny]

Thank you for taking the time to answer all the questions Aaron. I am still not convinced, but I admire an entrepreneur who sticks to his guns like that. Best wishes with your project.

[andrew]

I read through your answers, and am pretty sure you didn't touch upon my question of if the effects are permanent – as in, if you stop, will your progress regress? Do you have to use these forever, or can you stop when you're happy with your results?

[Aaron]

Hi Pagoda & all,

Yes, the screen won't show you anything.

Each module will show you a picture of something that is related to the subject of the module. Lean muscle shows a man with the muscular anatomy, and so on...that is the idea anyway...here and there some words flash here and there, these are all things to distract the conscious mind. We can make it look like a black screen if we want.

The universal language, if English is typed into the translator for example, will output unrecognizable data. However, the subconscious mind knows exactly what it means. It is NOT numbers, frequencies or anything like that. It is totally different from anything else. Here is the interesting thing. You can type the "affirmations" or whatever in any other language and if the meaning is the same, the output of the "universal language" is the SAME.

It deals with very advanced and very complex fractal systems and quantum physics. Just remember that even AFTER the Wright Brothers flew their plane, the science and math experts were busy scribbling equations one after another PROVING it couldn't be done even though they saw it with their own eyes. This didn't only happen in years past...this is COMMON today with the scientists as well. The mentality of "that just can't happen if I didn't learn it in school" is very, very, very prominant.

There is a math system called QUATERNION's. This is originally what MAXWELL, James Clerk Maxwell wrote his equations in. People today think they understand "Maxwell's Equations" but the fact of the matter is that the info in the textbooks are bastardized Maxwell's equations and are NOT what Maxwell personally wrote himself. What people think they are studying when they are studying Maxwell's Equations are really studying Heaviside's modified Maxwell Equations. Why were they modified? Because the engineers of the day were too incompetant to understand the original equations and needed a simplified version they could wrap their minds around in order to calculate electromagnetic/electrical functions while building machines (electromagnetic motors, etc...).

Why is this relevant to PATHS? Because of the advanced understandings of what Maxwell originally wrote basically shows there is INFINITE potential in all 3D space & time. Without revealing anything proprietary, I'll just say that thoughts are constructed spacially in certain ways and in certain natural algorhythms. Each intention no matter what literal/liguistic language, the intention is the same and that intention is translated into thought and that thought will have certain parameters to it that are not only quantifiable but calculatable. If anyone has interest in seeing what the original Maxwell's equations are...not taught in the textbooks today...AN UNDISPUTABLE FACT...I will post links to the pdfs and you can see it yourself that what is taught today is a total ridiculous unscientific SCAM when it comes to Maxwell's equations.

I can't say PATHS ties directly to Maxwell's equations as being a part of our technology but indirectly and conceptually.

Every one of us has dna that has all the programming necessary to unfold us at our normal rates from conception to death. The informations is ALWAYS in an interplay with our subconscious mind...our subconscious mind knows how to interpret our programming and knows what our own "default" heart rate should be at a given time, respiration, skin tone, etc... the dna is also ALWAYS in an interplay with you could say a "morphogenic field" resonating in the collective, which is where the "holographic memory" is stored.

Anyway, the subconscious mind can not only take dna data and act on it, it can do the acting even if not in the dna. For example in our early tests, we had some women sit in front of a black screen for 3 minutes. In less than a week, all their skin tone was several shades darker. What happened? The subconscious mind was urged to increase the production of melanin in the skin by 30% for example. It really is as simple as that.

People have changed eye color through meditation, increased breast size, slowed and even stopped heart rate, cleared plaque from their arteries, etc... I can meditate at 1 breath every 55 seconds and drop my pulse to 38/minute and a blood pressure of 76/74 with nothing but my conscious intent. Don't underestimate the power of what our minds can do and what kind of influence it has over the body. Grief and sadness can cause a body fully of cancer, stress, ulcers, etc... People laugh at medicines with placebo effect but that is the most powerful effect medical science has ever discovered and they laught at it...the placebo can often show more powerful results than the actual medication. This is absolute fact. What does this show? It shows that the mind CAN and DOES have powerful effects over the body.

So, the skin darkening test is just common sense that it will work as intended if the subconscious can be communicated to in such a fashion. It was quick by the sheer power of the technology. People can do the same thing if they visualize it but it will just take a very long time!

This is how the muscle mass module works. People can actually increase lean muscle mass with this technology. NASA, the govt., professional sports knows this well. All the visualization of athletes doing their sports can in their MIND can cause electrical activity in the muscles even if there is no physical movement. There is contraction and relaxation in the muscles and this is scientifically quantifiable and measureable.

Looking at the synchronicity diagram and my explanation..that basically erases the mystery of what is happening. Some modules focus on giving the subconsious mind stuff to constantly send out to the collective. This increases the transmitter (wattage) so to speak and more subconscious minds out there in similar resonance will pick it up and will influence their conscious thinking mind to gravitate towards you for what you want to attract. It is a very simple concept and doesn't need to be veiled in hype and mystery. It is what it is...a 3 level system of conscious thinking mind, subconscious processor and the unconscious record.

Carl Jung didn't invent that process he just rediscovered what has been known for thousands of years. The ancient Kahuna specifically had the 3 levels model...conscious mind, subconscious and unconsciousness, but by different names of course, there are MANY cultures and ages that have realized this truth. This concept is very widely taken in the the psychology community at large...at least in theory...but they mostly only know effects and nothing about the cause..it is still some big mystery to them.

I have to get going and will post more soon. I enjoy the questions by the way!

[Angela]

Yesterday I woke up from another deep creamy chocolaty delicious sleep. Looked in the mirror and again was bowled over by the beauty I saw there -- but then I was filled with tremendous tenderness and compassion, because I realized that I had been sending my physical self negative messages all of my adult life and despite that, it continued to loyally hold me up with strength, suppleness, beauty and joy. I felt like I had had a trusty sidekick that I'd been abusing for years. I was brimming with gratitude all day yesterday (now, too!) to my body for allowing me to live a life I love. I committed to sending only positive energy to myself from here on in and to be as good a friend to my body as it has been to me.

I wasn't imagining it about my eyes the other day -- the dark puffiness I usually have all day is gone, like your hat if you drop it in a volcano. That just amazes me.

I had a ton of energy all day, and felt compelled to take a 2-mile walk to buy my spirulina after lunch. I walked through the Beverly Hills village -- you know, Rodeo Drive, etc.? -- and felt tall and tan and young and lovely. The vitamin guy gave me a discount and asked for my phone number.

Later in the afternoon I noticed that although my body had tons of energy, my brain felt sleepy and foggy. What a weird sensation that was. Aaron had recommended a LOT more spirulina that I had originally thought, so I gulped down my pills but still felt pretty floopy all evening long. This morning, I'm looking out the window and it's as if I got new glasses -- my mind and vision are crystal clear. I see some runners on the beach and I can "feel" their vitality and propulsion. I am looking forward to going out there working my body and breathing the air, and the urge feels to me like the hunger or holding a nicely-wrapped birthday gift!

One interesting thing: my appetite is much lower than normal; I had to sort of lure myself into eating and then it is very easy to choose healthy food and turn up my nose at sweets. (I'm doing the weight-loss module.)

And that's my weekend PATHS update. I hope you have lots of joy in your day!

Love,
Angela

[Pagoda]

Aaron,

thanks for spending the time answering questions. Your last post was very informative and I agree with it. The placebo effect is the most powerful "medicine" we have today. And that power isn't with the doctor it is with the patient. The patient believes his body will be healed and so it is.

Now, it appears you have worked very hard on your technology and
I'm asking questions on this forum because I am trying to create the belief that PATHS does what it says. Or at least create the belief that it is possible.

Have you done studies that show the effects of PATHS is more than just the placebo effect? The placebo effect could be responsible for increasing the power of the subconscious transmissions into the collective unconscious per your diagram, not PATHS.

If PATHS is the reason, not placebo, than it appears your system and business model aren't tapping into the full potential of this technology. If you have studies that show it isn't the placebo effect, than private message me.

I hope you do.

[Pagoda]

Thank you Angela. That sounds like an awesome experience.

[TheColonel]

Update...This has been one of the busier weeks that I can remember, which is good. My brother's in town briefly from India, and I've got the kids today, so I don't have a lot of time to play on the internet.

For you folks who feel compelled to question my integrity, don't troll my threads. Just move along...

I'm a regular guy who got into IM a couple of years ago, and never had much success with it. I finally found something that worked, and I'm excited. I don't care if you try it or not, but it's working for me, thank God.

If it doesn't feel right to you, ignore this thread and go back to your affirmations/vision boards/EFT. I sincerely hope they work for you.

I'm also grateful to Aaron for jumping in to clear a few things up. As you can tell, the guy's pretty sharp.

I will agree with Angela, that since PATHS really kicked in - and for the first time in 20+ years - I'm sleeping like a baby. I've got back problems and sinus problems, and all the usual ************ middle-aged guys deal with, and they used to keep me up half the night. Not anymore...

I'll try give everybody updates as time goes by.

[Pagoda]

People feeling and doing better is good news no matter what the reason. Please keep the updates coming, Colonel.

I have a birthday coming up and I need to start dropping hints about what personal development product I would like to get. Frankly, I am not sure at this point.

[Angela]

I just wanted to share with you what my day was like yesterday. I had huge breakthroughs in every aspect of my day. I woke up again after yet another incredible sleep, my cardio workout was much easier and I increased my sprint and steady speed; I was able to jump two levels of weight on my lifting (plus it felt really good); and was still able to have a really challenging Pilates class. One of the trainers asked me what had gotten into me.

I noticed that my spirit has both calmed down and become more exuberant. I don't seem to feel my old need to defend, explain, or qualify myself. What a huge breakthrough that is for me! At the same time, I'm so filled with gratitude and excitement and joy just to be alive, at a far greater level than before I started this PATHS thing.

Danger Man can't help but notice how huge my results have been, and he just asked me to help him get up on the program, too. I wonder if that will make a difference in our relationship, which is already pretty darn good.

Do I sound like I'm on drugs or brainwashed? Is all this the PATHS program? I don't know, but it sure feels good whatever it is. Again, if it's a placebo, it's a powerful one, and I'm so glad I'm doing it.

Yes Pagoda, the skin darkening results were on women who didn't know what they were supposed to expect from staring at a black screen. Ruling out placebo 100%. We have done this with other things as well.

People's belief will back everything they do no matter what medicine, modality, etc... nothing available can separate a user's expectation or belief from their experience with any modality, not even PATHS. With the above skin darkening results ruling out any placebo, when people do know what they are supposed to get from PATHS, it helps of course...can't do anything about that...there is nothing immune from this.

With belief, if someone is very, very skeptical and trying to prove it doesn't work while trying it, they will say anything they want regardless of if there are results or not. We have seen a few of these people even though if they are on mood elevator or something, their friends and family comment on how they are having improvements in mood, etc... we can't satisfy everyone and there will always be skeptics who bring their skepticism with them meaning it had nothing to do with the technology. It was there to begin with meaning their perception filter is already skewed against seeing anything else. We have our share of converted skeptics.

On the placebo again, the women did not know what was supposed to happen by looking at a black screen...no placebo.

Also, a 4-year-old girl with type 1 diabetes. Not knowing what in the world she is supposed to be looking at or what it is even for. Before paths, the blood sugar was below 150 only 20% of the time. 1 week with paths, 39% of the time! That is 200% increase below the 150 mark...that is not only statistically significant...that is mind blowing....before paths the average time under 110 was 10%...after 1 week on paths, under 110, 29% of the time...that is 290% increase in time under 110. THREE TIMES.

There is nobody that can show me these results with placebo or non-placebo in a safe, no side effect, intervention free way.

Anyway, this diabetic module will be available in the near future for the public. To let you all know diabetes cure is already known. It isn't an autoimmune disorder...it is the nerve endings surrounding the beta cells in the pancreas....the nerve endings are NOT properly secreting substance P neurotransmitter telling the brain there is something wrong there. Injecting substance P into the pancreas CURES diabetes. It kicks in normal function virtually overnight.

Anyway, the subconscious mind can simply be told to help increase the secretion of substance P at the nerve endings surrounding the beta cells. That is a small but very significant part of this diabetes module. So, now you know how to cure diabetes with conventional medicine...the injection...

or, with no intervention, 3 minutes per week by utilizing the power of the subconscious mind in a way that has never been done until now.

I will say that if anyone has diabetes, they should get a picture of a cross section of some pancreas, memorize what a healthy one looks like and start visualizing substance P being secreted from the nerve endings. Not as effective as paths, but if anyone has diabetes, they should use what they got! Their mind!

I'm NOT saying that paths will cure diabetes, I AM saying we are applying the real knowledge of what causes the beta cells to properly produce insulin and how to cause the uptake to normalize and putting it in the paths technology as described. And it is working for almost everyone so far. A small percentage are not getting good results, just a very slight improvement, and I do not know if there is anyone with zero difference.

There was even a study in Toronto I think proving this. They injected substance p into diabetic mice pancreas and it CURED them overnight. 4-5 months later, one injection, they still were 100% free of diabetes. That is about 5-7 years in human time. We are not claiming this will last that long but we do know it helps them normalize blood/sugar.

Anyway, the cause is not placebo but a person's belief can and probably will help the technology work better..more accepting. That applies to massage, eft, etc... everything else under the sun.

Take care,
Aaron

Fascinating topic this, please keep the information coming.

[QUOTE=Aaron;47045Take care,

@Aaron,
Was just wondering if the PATHS product could run as a complete subliminal program on my work PC. Is there a version that would get the same benifits that I could use while at work at looking at my PC all day long? Or is it also that I have to gaze at a certain a full screen image that the program generates and sort of meditate? It just sounded like some were using a black screen so it seems like it could be done on my computer as I work.

What about mobile versions? Is there effort to make something that could be "offline" and run on a mp3 player or phone screen?

I wondered if you have come across DNA activation and if PATHS does something DNA activation claims to do? Or maybe that DNA stuff is too wacky to be real.

I thought I'd jump in here and let you all know that I took the plunge and invested in PATHS. I'll be honest, I am really skeptical, but I am also a psych student and couldn't resist my own curiosity. Seeing as most research into subliminal effects either discredits the fact or is inconclusive, this stuff really gets my academic mind piqued. I chalked it up to an experimental investment

Let me add a disclaimer here that I am not posting to compete, discredit, or diminish anyone else's experiences with this program, but merely to add to the knowledge base that the people here seem to appreciate.

So, here's my experience thus far: Last night I ran the program for the first time. It's just an image with a pulsating "light" and some rather obscured letters moving around in the background. The audio sounds exactly like a self-hypnosis track I have from another source and I presume comprises the "improved sleep" aspect of the PATHS program.

After running the "show" I felt the same as I do when i run a deep sleep self hypnosis track- very relaxed, sleepy, and calm. I went to bed but had that unnerving experience of the brain being very awake while the body is asleep. It took a good 45 minutes for my brain to quieten down- which is very rare for me.
My sleep was riddled with very vivid dreams about experiences I've had, people from my distant past (unpleasant people), and tasks that I need to complete. (aka taking out the garbage )
Today was a typical day. No massive insights, no profound boost in self confidence, productivity, mood, energy, or anything really. And this is in spite of the fact that I am actually LOOKING for an effect, and as we all know, if you look you will generally find something.
So, thus far results are chalked up to a strange sleep experience and lots of general curiosity. They claim that the program is progressive, so I suppose that means that I should have a different experience after watching it next week- it's a once a week thing.
In the interim, I'll continue to keep you all posted on my experience.

DangerMan also signed up and watched his first "theater" yesterday -- he really WANTS to have results, and is, in his words, "leaning in to it."

This morning he said he slept somewhat better, and woke up at exactly 6am straight up (which was the desired time he specified in his profile). He said he felt a little sick to his stomach just as he was drifting off to sleep. Other than that, nothing so far.

I've been getting a weird feeling in my stomach, too, but I wouldn't describe mine as "sick" -- it comes when I'm making a decision about food or drink, and it feels like something is kind of twisting away from unhealthy choices, and even alcohol. It was unusual for me not to want to order a beer yesterday out in the hot sun. I've been craving vegetables, but my normal urge for sweets is nowhere to be found. Also I've got much more of an urge to choose water than any other drink. Despite drinking lots of water (3 liters a day), I feel thirsty all the time.

By the way, I've lost 2.5 pounds since I started on Wednesday.

Me too... I just had a bowel movement

Of course I am half kidding, but it is normal for your weight to fluctuate a couple of pounds and I think it's too early to say whether or not you have actually started losing weight.

Keep the updates coming as I'm interested to hear. I have not yet decided to take the plunge, but I'm inching closer to the edge.

Normal for you, maybe, duhshuh, but not for me. This is a very unusual occurrence for me.

Well, nothing really ground breaking to report today either. Though, if I look really hard I can dig up a few things.

Last night I managed to get a fair bit of work done without a lot of mental energy required to motivate myself. I deal daily with feeling overwhelmed by my workload and there were a few instances of "well, I've got 15 minutes, I might as well do X" Is it because of the PATHS thing? I'm dubious.

Another thing I noticed is that as I was working away diligently I felt fine, good concentration, good energy, and then I felt like I hit a wall. I just got really tired really fast. When I looked at the clock I saw that it was 10:20, which is 10 minutes prior to the bedtime I had programed into the module. Ostensibly it is meant to help you sleep and wake on a regular cycle that you input. So, again, did I have a sugar crash or did PATHS make me want to stop working and go to bed at 10:30? I don't know, but as tired as I was it took me 30 minutes to fall asleep properly- again, odd for me.

Again, it was a night of many vivid dreams, many of which I could recall clearly when I woke this morning. As for the waking thing, I am certainly nowhere near waking at the time that I have programmed into my PATHS theater. On the contrary, I have been oversleeping these last 2 days. My energy is very low, but I am also battling a fever and a sore throat. And I thought all that spirulina was supposed to help me stay healthy and energetic

Of course, due to the nature of my little experiment, I am very conscious of every little thing. I certainly am not minimizing any effects, if anything I'm potentially attributing basic events to changes brought on by this program. I am interested to see the email that comes at the one week mark that is meant to remind me to watch the theater again and asks a series of questions meant to help me see the effects of PATHS in my life.

I am really glad that people are seeing profound changes on this program, but thus far I am not one of them. Perhaps my results are a-typical?

The one caveat of this process is that I feel unable to pursue any other personal growth attempts so that they don't confound my pseudo-(un) scientific examination of the PATHS program. No meditation, no affirmations, no nothing for a whole month is going to be hard for me!

BTW that was way TMI. LOL

m0vingon, I've also had that get-tired-really-fast just before my programmed bedtime, so has Danger Man. I also have felt like sleeping in -- it feels harder to pull myself up out of such a deep sleep, but once I'm up, I've been more awake more quickly than normal.

Danger Man says he feels like he's detoxing -- a little run-down. He can see results, but they're more subtle than what I experienced my first days out.

May I ask which modules you're using? I'm doing the youth, sex, weight-loss, and goals (switched from energy).

[TheColonel]

I didn't see results for about 3-4 weeks. My sleep was only slightly better after 2-3 weeks. Once I started gobbling spirulina - around 10g/day - things started kicking in.

It's strange how some people see results overnight, and some take weeks. I think I read in one of Aaron's posts over at PI that it's about a week or so on average.

I'm only on the success 1 module, so I can't really report on any other physical changes, but at 10:25 every night, I feel a tidal wave of exhaustion rush over me. And at 6:30 or so, my eyes pop open. I'm not exactly leaping out of bed yet, but I don't need the alarm anymore.

I am doing Take it off (cause what woman doesn't want to lose some weight ), Academic Super Charger, Self Esteem, and Effective Communication at Home. I am considering switching from the academic one to goals, but I'll leave it like this for my 30 day un-scientific experimental phase

10 g of spirulina sound like an awful lot. I know you have to do what's right for you, but please be aware that there is some evidence that vast amounts of spirulina are possibly linked to renal stones (ouch).

Someone said, "Once I started gobbling spirulina... things started kicking in."

I wonder how much of the effect is due to the spirulina, and how much to PATHS?

Thanks for the tip. I've passed 5 kidney stones in my life, all about the size of a matchhead - But with sharp & jagged edges.

Don't worry, it only hurts when you breathe.

However, I can't find any source to support your concern. Most list minor side effects (headaches, flushed face, etc.)

Can you provide a link please? If it's true, I'll certainly have to think twice before chomping down a fistful of that stuff anymore.
