A 21st Century Creative Experience

I am IN AWE of this book! The material is beautiful, deep and inspiring. But it is the FORMAT that is revolutionary - an interactive, multi-media experience that brings the act of reading to a new 21st century level. What a gift you offer every reader who is ready to ignite! Rev. Deborah

Amazing Experience, Highly Recommended

I was amazed by how much this book taught me about thinking and solving problems, and about experiencing life instead of just moving from task to task. Highly recommended, particularly for the over achiever, who will learn about what really matters. Also recommended for those seeking new ways to think, and ways to problem solve, and ways to just experience life. Congratulations to the authors on an amazing book, it would make a great gift for anyone going through a life change or planning one, like a graduation, a job change, or retirement. So many possibilities out there, we only need to know how much awaits us!

Creative genius!

This book and free soundtrack is a multi-media experience like no other. It bridges the gap between our right and left-brain thinking and opens up a whole new window of creativity. It is a quantum leap in our perception and consciousness - a must-have for anyone and everyone in a creative career. It helps increase focus, it inspires, it fills gaps and it creates. Read and listen - it will change the way you look at things and open your mind. Take right and left turns in your own brain, follow white rabbits you never knew were in there and arrive at your creative destination. Pearse Kieran, Ireland

This book is amazing--I've never seen anything else like it out there. I gave up on self-help books a while ago because they never really helped me solve any of my problems. But this book is totally different, and I decided to order it after I looked at it in a bookstore. The book comes with a free soundtrack, which is supposed to put you into a sort of dreaming state even though you're awake. I think it pretty much does that with me, and it's also really relaxing. The main point of the book is to have a personal experience, and figure things out about yourself that you didn't know before. Basically what I do is go through the book while I'm thinking about something that's bothering me. The book is full of pictures, so you're supposed to find one that pulls you in or induces some strong reaction. On the page with that picture there might be some question to think about or some instructions to follow. Then you close your eyes while you listen to the soundtrack, and sort of let your mind wander. Sometimes when I do this, I instantly figure out the solution to my problem. At first I didn't believe it, but it has happened a lot. Other times I have just let myself daydream and have gone on trips. Once I traveled out into the stars, and experienced myself as just a thought, which was awesome. It felt like I was out there for a long time, even though it was only a few minutes. When I came back, I had a different perspective on things. I carry this book around with me all the time. I have to be creative at work, so it's my new secret weapon. I highly recommend it.

ignite the genius within

I found this helpful book through the author's previous amazing book,The Way Out. This new book, Ignite the Genius Within is deceptively simple. It helps you for the short term and over the long term. You listen to the downloaded sounds, which you get from the book's website, using headphones, while you go over the exercises. A fabulous preview of exercises can be seen on the book's website. The technique is also helpful because it can be returned to over and over, like meditation.
