They are the outcome of education and training. Depending on your upbringing, they can be anything between very good and very bad.

Here is a great potential for learning, personal growth, and last but not least a process of cultural evolution.

The mind has two risk factors: potentially bad programming by our culture, and its "overload database" that collects and stores alarm signals  - sometimes too many.

 How Life Wheels Can Block...

... and how we can help.

 

From here on you find one short chapter on each of your life's wheels and the interfaces between them. We will describe some of the typical ways they can block your life's smooth pace, and how we can support you in unblocking them.

 

Also we will give you some study recommendations for each of these areas. These websites and books are the ones we are using ourselves in the work with our clients. There is no need for you to wait for anyone to educate you - become your own teacher! With the advent of the internet, a whole world of knowledge is just a mouse click away!

 

Book Recommendations For your convenience, we have added Amazon links to our book recommendations, so that you can order the books in which you are interested in the least complicated way.  These links go to the  Amazon Headquarter  in the US. If you are located in Europe, postage and mailing times are probably better if you order from the UK. On our Links EU page we have therefore listed all books a second time together with the matching links to Amazon UK.   Where there is a german translation, we have also added links to the german version hosted by Amazon DE. If you want to see which of our recommended books have been translated to German, please use our Links DE page. (Our coach Heidrun Beer has been born in Austria, that's why we can manage German. If you want these books presented in another language, please send us the translated link page - we will then publish the corresponding links to the Amazon websites in France, Japan, China, Italy or Spain.)   , Amazon France, Amazon Italy, and Amazon Spain - add spanish links to american page!

 

 Spirit

The spiritual version of Leonardo's "Vitruvian Man"

 

Here is where it all starts: a spiritual being longing for experiences in the physical universe. Is he just bored? Maybe, but curiosity and creativity may be more at the heart of his wish to play with suns and planets, or incarnate by animating a biological life form. A sub-set of these life forms would be sentient beings (in contrast to less aware life forms like plants, insects or other animals), and a sub-set of sentient beings would be human beings, the life form you have currently chosen. 

 

The main difficulty that arises for a spiritual being who has incarnated into a life form is that the plan he has made for this incarnation is going out of control. Starting out as his movie's all-powerful mastermind, he deteriorates to becoming the effect of more and more outside factors - lack of food or water, health tragedies, natural disasters, wars, cultural repression, personal enemies...

 

What was supposed to be a joyous adventure often turns into a nightmare. And because the spiritual being has forgotten all about his life planning prior to birth, he is no longer aware that he was the author of his screenplay and he can re-write it at any time. So the nightmare turns into a trap from which he sees no way out. Ultimately he escapes the trap by death, but he leaves so many unsolved problems behind that he feels he must incarnate again to do it better this time. His next incarnation is no longer playful, it is already troubled at the beginning, and continues to get worse. And this keeps going on and on, and on and on.

 

 

The karmic "Wheel of Rebirth" carved in stone by a Buddhist artist

 

Escaping the "Wheel of Rebirth"   This fatal loop (which has been described by Eastern religions as the karmic "Wheel of Rebirth") can be interrupted by moments where a troubled human being suddenly wakes up and becomes aware of his existence as an immortal spirit who is totally in charge of his eons long existence - who no longer compulsively incarnates, but can choose and plan his incarnations according to his personal interests and wishes, or work for the greatest good even though he has already transcended human existence.   Going out of body at will can be trained today - you don't have to wait for a near death experience (NDE)! The opposite of this exteriorization process happens at birth, when we merge with a physical body to become a human being.   This awakening can happen spontaneously by a surprise ascension experience, maybe as a result of meditation; it sometimes happens when people are catapulted out of their body during a Near Death Experience (NDE); and in personal sessions (Ability Processing, Trauma Clearing or Character Clearing) we have seen these moments many times.   But if you want to have the marvellous experience of leaving your body for a few minutes, it is no longer a necessity to have a scary accident or come close to death during a heart attack or an operation. During such events the "Out of Body Experience" (OBE) happens unplanned, but OBE's can also be trained,  and are then completely safe. They are the most convincing thing you can do to prove to yourself that you are a spiritual being, not a body - a certainty that may have faded after so many years in the body, in a culture for whom these things are still very unreal.

 

Our ability coach Heidrun Beer presents articles and links about the subject of life planning prior to birth on her website about Life Lesson Processing   Books and Web Links about the Spiritual Aspects of Life Planning:   While the truth about our spiritual nature has long been the domain of religion, mainly from the Eastern hemisphere, science is finally catching up to it too. In the last years, many extremely fascinating books have been published. If you like reading, we recommend the website www.life-lessons.eu, a site written by our coach Heidrun Beer, where she is linking to a large number of books and websites that explain the subject in great depth.     The following books are of central relevance to the idea of life planning prior to birth, the relations between the spiritual and the physical world, and the influence of a spiritual being's intention on events in the physical world. Deepak Chopra's book is of special interest: he discusses the most recent theories of quantum physics in a spiritual context. So does Richard Bartlett, who has the additional advantages of a very special clairvoyant talent and a wonderfully grim humor.   Finally the day has come where ancient religion and modern science are meeting, and we learn in scientific terms how  mental imagery and the power of intention shape physical reality!   Michael Newton: Journey of Souls: Case Studies of Life Between Lives Robert Schwartz: Your Soul's Plan: Discovering the Real Meaning of the Life You Planned Before You Were Born Brian Weiss: Messages from the Masters Deepak Chopra: The Spontaneous Fulfillment of Desire: Harnessing the Infinite Power of Coincidence Richard Bartlett: Matrix Energetics: The Science and Art of Transformation

 

Books and Web Links about OBE's and OBE Training:   Here are some book and web links to the works of the prominent OBE trainers William Buhlman and Robert Bruce, and of course to the institute founded by the "Father of OBE's", Robert Monroe (now deceased, after visiting the non-physical world many times during the OBE's that he describes in his three captivating books).   Also we link to a book of the "Father of NDE's", Raymond Moody, the first author who made headlines with his collection of case histories collected from people who had survived physical death, and told him about their experiences in the afterlife - better called the non-physical world, as we exist there not only after death, but all the time where we are not incarnated.   The books listed here are only examples. All of these authors have published more books with very exciting material!   Raymond A.

 The Spirit-Mind Interface

 

Aura photography ís a new diagnostic system, where areas of trouble can be seen long before they manifest in the physical body.

A spirit takes on not only a physical body when he incarnates. He also grows various layers of energy that have been called the "subtle bodies" or the "aura" by ancient religions, or the "energy body" in modern language. These energy layers connect the spirit with his body on the physical side, and with the spiritual world on the other side. Emotions and feelings are located in one of these layers. One holds thoughts. Other layers have to do with the structure and function of the physical body, and with the person's integration into the bigger picture of global events and cosmic planning - the so-called "divine will".

 

Ideally this combination makes for a lucid spiritual being in a healthy physical body. After a series of incarnations, however, many residues of negative energy can have accumulated from the roles (we call them "characters") that the person has played. Especially roles where he has lost in a game will form such residues. Also the layers that form the bond to the spiritual world can have withered so that they are no longer working, or are blocked by destructive thoughts or actions.

 

These energies residues do not always dissolve at the end of an incarnation (at physical death). They can travel with the spirit through the times and keep accumulating, getting more and more solid. If we had the necessary perceptions, we would see that the energy body is riddled with dark clouds, has tears or is otherwise disfigured, or that its energy centers are working in a less than optimum way. All this can lead not only to a less than happy person, it can also have an impact on the physical body and lead to health problems that have no apparent physical cause.

 

 

Character Clearing   There exists a perfect method to dissolve the eons old energy residues with their embedded negative decisions that have formed in thousands of battles and fights, and in a multitude of other conflicts. At their core is the opposition by others - opposing people with opposing goals and the resulting activities. We call this method  Character Clearing  (the word "character" is used in its definition as a role or figure in a movie or theatre play).     In the boxing ring, as fierce as it may look, the fight is a just a game. When it is over, the two champions can slip out of their roles as opponents and go out for a beer together. In life on the other hand, we often totally lock jaws with an oppenent - a competitor in business, a political enemy, a neighbour, our mother-in-law, sometimes even our own spouse. Over time, a general attitude of combat readiness develops that is a handicap for friendly human relations. But other, less aggressive personality traits are also carved into our energy field by playing a certain role over and over. Non-viable emotions like fear, grief or apathy become chronic, decisions made in defeat situations become life rules. This turns us into puppets of our past - we are no longer able to fully and lovingly be present with the people in our life.       In Character Clearing, one by one, the roles that we have played over time are completely cleaned of any negative energy and non-viable or destructive decisions. The same is done with the roles of our opponents. This results in a wonderfully transparent personal space, a peaceful mindset that is no longer susceptible to struggles and personal fights, an ever growing understanding of other people's viewpoints, and a great new aliveness.   Character Clearing is done in personal sessions. Give us a call or send us an e-mail if you want to talk about Character Clearing!

 

Energy Body Book Recommendations:   The absolute energy body ("Aura") pioneer is Barbara Ann Brennan, a clairvoyant lady who can perceive people's energy body with extra-sensory perception. She has built a whole School of Healing on her science. Even though it is so highly spiritual, it is recognized as a university in the USA, with additional centers in Europe and Japan. A later but no less ingenious author is Robert Bruce, a prominent OBE ("Out of Body") trainer.   Here are essential books about the energy body that are (or will be) classics in the area.

 The Mind

 

The mind is our human computer's operating system. It manages our plan making, plan implementation and problem solving routines and personal preferences. Also it operates huge memory databases that are  partially based on the physical brain (although some memories go back to previous lifetimes as well). The mind connects the user (the spiritual being) with the "software applications" (life skills) that are using the hardware (the physical body) as an input and output device, or in other words: to gather perceptions and to talk and interact with others. Only when all these components work smoothly together, will the computer do something useful for its owner - YOU!

 

You have certainly seen any number of computers that crashed because the operating system was acting up. Computer trouble can come from all components, but the operating system is the one component that coordinates all the others. It takes commands from the user  (the spiritual being - YOU), and delivers the results of immensely complicated internal computations back to him... in other words, it is of central importance. The user is of course even more important, but without a mind there would be little he could do to play any significant role in an Earth movie.

 

 

  The Overload Protection Mechanism

 

One thing: our mind's databases can be tricky. They are learning, and sometimes they learn the wrong things. There is an overload protection mechanism in the mind which stores all situations of overload (pain, shock, overwhelm) in a special database, so that any similar situation can be avoided in the future. Our mind believes that any car accident, drowning in a lake, being punched in the face or any other of a million dreadful experiences can be avoided in the future, if we simply don't go near anything anymore that looks, smells, sounds or feels in any way similar.

 

This is a feature inherited from our animal ancestors ages ago. Watch a young cat trying to play with a bee - pow! Once stung, she never again goes near anything that buzzes or crawls like a bee or looks similar to it! With this elegant feature, our mind keeps a lot of our attention in the past, with the result that it is missing in present time. What's worse: these events are kept out of sight in our memory by our over-protective mind, because they have been so very "too much". We don't even know about them anymore, and have no chance to sort them out!

 

Here is a map of surroundings with warning signs. On the internet such pictures are typically updated every ten minutes to reflect the traffic conditions in present time. Other warning signs of non-permanent things!

 

Below you see how the same roadmap looks if it is never updated. All the warning signs of the past are still active. Our mind does exactly that as a service - to protect us from the same danger in the future. But the situation right now is totally different from the situation yesterday, last week or seven past lives ago when predators were still around! Conclusion: we have to clean up our mind's databases if we want to navigate properly in present time.   More signs, less regular pattern, more crowded!

 

It seems to be obvious that if these databases are not updated from time to time, a lot of material accumulates in them that makes us avoid more or less everything, because our "overload database" has collected far too many warning signs about the dangers of living. Most of them are no longer relevant, but they still warn us with strong feelings of panic and other negative emotions. Have a look at the chapter on  Trauma Clearing  to read more about this.

 

 

 Who Programmed Your Mind? 

 

There is another great liability about the human mind, which is that like any other operating system (no, we will not name any here, although we feel tempted!), it is only as good as its programmers have designed it. A child's mind is a clean slate. If it is being programmed by Earth guides (= parents and teachers) who after some lifetimes full of errors and losses are in bad shape, or who have bought into the principles of an insane culture, our young child will end up with a mind suffering from serious malfunction.

 

We address this situation - which can differ very much from one client to the next - with a package of methods that we call  Ability Processing . This container of procedures is very rich of sophisticated tools, too many to list them one by one, but here are the areas that we are addressing, aside from traumatic experiences (which have their own approach described in the   Trauma Clearing  chapter).

 

 

Ability Processing:   In a nutshell, these are the difficulties in the mind, the operating system in our inner computer (see explanations above), that we address with Ability Processing: Inability to talk about certain subjects or to certain people comm course! Chronic problems that make life difficult Guilt feelings coming from a history of harmful acts and exhausting efforts to hide them A tendency to have upsets with people - spouse, children, colleagues at work etc. A compulsion to be right or to dominate others (or trouble with other such people) You can see that these are not specific skills like cooking, heart surgery or piano playing (these are covered by our  Life Skill Coaching ), but general abilities essential for a person's wellbeing and his human relations. They either have to be  troubleshooted (difficulties handled), or developed from scratch, if they have not been "installed" before.   We blame nobody for their flaws - parents who teach their children unfortunate behaviour patterns, or fail to teach them something essential, have gone through the same conditioning process a generation earlier. It could be interesting to see how this originally started, but what is really important is that the chain of contagion is interrupted, and the next generation has a fresh start with a clean slate. In our opinion, it would be the responsibility of any parent to polish these basic abilities in themselves, so that their children or future children have the best of chances in life.   Other non-optimum situations in the mind are addressed with  Character Clearing  - see our chapter on that -, with the Fixation Processing  that we describe in our chapter about the  Life-Spirit  interface, or with other tools that we have not specifically mentioned. Give us a call or send us an e-mail if you need help in one of these areas!

 The Mind-Body Interface

 

The times where health problems were seen as a purely mechanical/chemical situation are definitely over. Medical science has learned that a patient's emotional condition and non-physical elements like stress can have a great influence on body health, and that serious diseases like stomach ulcers and even cancer can be triggered by a person's mind. This category of diseases is called  Psychosomatic Illnesses , which means that the body is made ill by things happening in the psyche.

 

The corresponding therapy is called psychotherapy. Traditional psychotherapy, however, is only partially successful because in many cases it does not go far enough back - into previous lifetimes, where the roots of present time problems can be found in massive traumatic experiences that involved physical injury or a violent death, or other forms of shock and overwhelm from which the person never recovered. Such incidents go back in "chains" of similar events, and if the first incident on the chain is not found, the problem can be alleviated but will not completely dissolve.

 

Another very important issue in the interface between mind and body is  Brain Health . A deteriorating brain can cause symptoms that look like mental or character issues - sometimes they also overlap with actual mental issues. For any practitioner who is working with the mind it is essential that s/he can differentiate between physical (brain) and mental (mind) causes of any non-optimum condition. Read more in our paragraph about  The Mind-Brain Connection.

 

Trauma Clearing:   The negative effects of traumatic incidents like car accidents, injuries, war experiences, assaults or rape are manifold. Nightmares, horrible flashbacks of shock moments, phobias, compulsions, but also chronic emotions like intense grief or fear, or murderous and uncontrollable rage - and the list continues. All these things can be resolved completely with Trauma Clearing. We have developed this approach way beyond the regression procedures used by other practitioners,  by including essential elements from Character Clearing, without which regression methods are incomplete.   Trauma Clearing is done in personal sessions. Give us a call or send us an e-mail if you want to talk about Trauma Clearing!

 

Book Recommendations:   There is a career story which is so amazing that it is worth looking into it: the story of Dr. Brian Weiss, who was head of psychiatry in a big hospital before he ran into a patient whose case he could not solve with any of the traditional psychiatric methods, until he took her back into a past life where he found - and dissolved - the root of her extreme mental disorder.   This experience led to a profound change in his ideas about psychosomatic illness. He evolved from a traditional psychotherapist into a figurehead of past-life regression therapy, from that into a herald of spirituality, and has since turned into a bestselling book author who is doing workshops in the whole world.   Our other book recommendations also have to do with past lives and reincarnation more than with psychosomatic illness, since the existence of psychosomatic illness as such is no longer disputed by mainstream medicine - only a workable approach to resolve it has not yet arrived in the medical universities.    Brian Weiss: Many Lives, Many Masters: The True Story of a Prominent Psychiatrist, His Young Patient, and the Past-Life Therapy That Changed Both Their Lives Brian Weiss: Only Love Is Real: A Story of Soulmates Reunited Edgar Cayce: Reincarnation & Karma Thorwald Dethlefsen: Voices from Other Lives: Reincarnation As a Source of Healing

 

 

 

 

IMPORTANT: The Mind-Brain Connection   The proverbial "boiling frog": thrown into really hot water, he would jump out immediately; but put into lukewarm water that gets slowly heated up, he misses the point of jumping out and is boiled to death. Actual frogs have proven this metaphor to be fantasy, but a similar thing happens a lot in health matters, especially where the brain, the cognitive organ, is involved: the loss of function happens so slowly that we don't really notice it before it is really late.   A deteriorating brain can cause symptoms that look like mental or emotional issues: confusion, aggression, fears, depressive feelings, lack of energy, inability to implement a plan or simply manage daily life - along with the better known symptoms like loss of memory or orientation. There are more possible causes for this brain deterioration than the best known cause, old age - it can also be caused by liver malfunction, toxic heavy metals and other medical problems.   We are trained to recognize these symptoms. If we believe that we see them in you, we will not waste your time and money with clearing sessions or coaching, we will recommend that you see a doctor and have a thorough health test. As soon as your doctor has given you the test results and his recommendations for treatment, we will go through them  with you in a  Health Consulting  session, where we have a look at possible alternative solutions (many medical doctors are not really up-to-date with the latest research). Especially one approach, EDTA Chelation Therapy, can improve circulation related brain problems dramatically - read more about it in our chapter about Body Health.   As soon as all necessary physical treatment activities are well underway, we can support you with personal sessions to alleviate the stress and emotional pain that goes along with such a serious health situation.           Book Recommendations:   Sandra Cabot: Alzheimer's - How to Protect the Brain Matt Traverso: The Alzheimer's Reversing Breakthrough  (E-Book) Daniel Amen: Healing the Hardware of the Soul: Enhance Your Brain to Improve Your Work, Love, and Spiritual Life - have a look at Dr. Amen's other brilliant brain books as well!

 The Physical Body

 

If our complete existence in the physical universe were a computer system, then the body would be the hardware, the mind would be the operating system, life skills would be the applications that are running in the computer, and the spiritual being would be the computer's user. We as coaches could be compared with operating system trainers and software troubleshooters.

 

The hardware system, our body, is a whole microcosm of interacting sub-systems. Like in the larger picture of our life's wheels, all of them have to interact smoothly to make for a healthy body. Nutrition, digestion, fitness, sleep, sexuality, medical care and environment are the main factors that have to be integrated for a body to be in good shape.  

 

Ideally we as software people would not work with the hardware. Actually we would happily leave the work with our clients' physical body to the medical profession - if we had not seen such a lot of shocking evidence where the medical establishment and the pharmaceutical industry sabotaged the process of incorporating important pieces of medical pioneer work into standard medical practice.

 

We will not go into details about this, but as a consequence we have made it a routine to study the newest medical materials available in books and on the internet, especially in matters that are considered "incurable" or "hopeless" by mainstream medicine. It seems that alternative medicine has successful approaches even to fatal diseases like cancer, diabetes, lung emphysema (see book on H2O2), infections by drug resistant germs (that have devastated whole hospital wards!!) (see book on Colloidal Silver), and many other life-threatening conditions. The materials are on the web and available in bookstores.

 

 Circulation Problems and EDTA Chelation

 

We would like to especially emphasize one thing, because so many people are concerned by this situation, and the alternative approach is so incredibly much simpler and cheaper than the complicated, expensive and dangerous mainstream medicine approach. This is the multitude of symptoms caused by bad blood circulation: heart problems like angina pectoris or calcified heart valves, heart attacks, strokes,"smoker's legs", loss of sexual function, bad hearing, bad memory or even full blown dementia, and many other so-called "old age problems". In the civilized world (where there is abundant food and good hygiene) this is the leading cause of death, with a percentage of about 25%.

 

Blood vessels in normal and clogged-up condition - a result of our western main-stream diet. This condition is the leading cause of death in our culture - a death preceded by years of debilitating diseases.

Gangrenous foot, caused by clogged-up blood vessels. Price question: If feet suffer so badly from lack of oxygen and nutrients normally coming with the blood, then how will a heart react to it, or worse, how will a brain react to it?

 

All these things can be prevented, alleviated, or they disappear completely when the blood vessels are cleaned with a process that is called EDTA chelation therapy. EDTA is a cheap synthetic amino acid which is either infused directly into the bloodstream, or taken orally as drops. Mainstream medicine will instead prescribe expensive drugs with scary side effects in this situation, it will cut up your chest and remove the main blockages in the heart arteries with a bypass operation while the whole rest of the body - including the brain! - keeps suffering from lack of oxygen and nutrients due to clogged-up pipework, it will amputate legs that have no more blood circulation, and if the problem affects your brain they will put you into a wheelchair, spoon-feed you for 20 years of a vegetable existence and change your nappies, without ever doing anything to really help you.

 

We don't have the words to express how unbelievably ignorant and cruel we find this. EDTA Chelation therapy is well established in alternative medicine, in some countries entire clinics are dedicated to it, and there is absolutely no reason to withhold it from the school medicine patient, other than the profit that is made by expensive drugs and operations (which by the way wrecks the finances of most governmental health care systems). If you or anyone from your family are affected by such problems, please have a look at the extensive materials that are available on the net. We have found one product that we recommend as having the best price, combined with ample information - available on www.cardio-renew.com in America, or www.cardiorenew-europe.com in Europe. You also can get it from us, if you are in Denmark or in the German speaking area.

 

 

Heatlth Consulting:   We understand that the typical medical doctor is trapped in an extreme treadmill of exhausting work, and if he has time for advanced training at all, it has to be inside the framework of mainstream medicine. We also understand that alternative practitioners often have answers that go far beyond the scope of school medicine, and we want to acknowledge those medical doctors who have opened up to alternative medicine and extended their professional skills to embrace these additional methods.   But what we are most convinced of is that many people are going through completely unnecessary troubles, and we are determined to let them know about their additional choices. We are not trying to be doctors, we don't prescribe medication and certainly don't do any surgery, but we do show our clients the alternatives to mainstream treatment when they have a health complaint.    Part of our health consulting has to do with the neighbouring area of Life Skill Coaching, where we look into dietary habits and nutrition among other things. Just because you were taught a style of cooking that has made many generations sick, there is absolutely no reason why you should end up in the same trap.

 

Book and Website Recommendations:   The list of book recommendations we are giving here is far from being complete. Go to the internet and find more! We want to encourage you to not only be your own teacher, but also be your own doctor, whenever mainstream medicine is failing you. Just put a few key words into a search machine, and the solution could jump into your face! We have no doubt that sooner or later all these pioneer approaches will arrive in mainstream medical training, but this will need another decade, or two, or three - why wait for this if the knowledge is already available now?   People are basically good, but they have a tendency to defend their mistakes. Just have a look how long it took for the doctors to learn that they have to wash their hands after cutting up corpses. Ignaz Semmelweis, the first doctor to realize the connection between unwashed hands and childbed fever, was antagonized by his peers for decades. Yet, at present it is a routine action to have sterile hands when touching a wound or doing an operation. So, medicine is ultimately learning, but for God's sake, don't wait for them to learn tomorrow, if you are sick today!   One outstanding expert, a fully trained medical doctor with a strong focus on natural approaches, is Dr. Joseph Mercola. His website www.mercola.com has a huge archive of excellent articles written by himself, and others that he is presenting in his archive with his comments. We recommend this website as a first address for all health questions.     Ty M.

 The Body-Skills Interface

 

There is one less well known, but important part of the brain, called the small brain or cerebellum. It is not involved in thinking or other cognitive processes - it stores motoric action patterns that are repeated over and over, as in walking, driving, bike riding or typing. In our model of the human being as a computer, the cerebellum would be the BIOS: the computer's most basic functions stored in a low level memory chip that does not require any database access or thinking processes.

 

 

When a child has learned to ride a bike, play the violin, or even much earlier when he has learned to walk without holding the hand of his mummy, or later in life when he has learned to drive a car, the pattern of many complex movements involved has been "hardwired" into the cerebellum. In other words, they can be called up and activated without wasting a single thought on them - they have become automatic. Most or all Life Skills have motion patterns that are stored in the cerebellum.

 

 Practice, Practice, Practice!

 

The expression "Practice, practice, practice!" comes from that. In sports, dancing, musical instruments it is obvious that practice is required to master the activity. But there are also less spectacular life skills that need their movements grooved into cerebellum storage. Household activities like sweeping, hammering, splitting wood certainly need practice before they work really well. Many professions need extensive practice of specialized motion patterns before a master emerges from his training years. And generations of wives have suffered from their husbands' missing lovemaking skills (an art that was never taught in schools until very recently), where routine movements of fingers and tongue are key elements that simply have to be practiced before they no longer require much thinking (to the novice they may seem strange, even monstrous?)

 

 

Typically these things are learned in childhood or the teenager years - everybody expects young people to learn. In later years, other life activities become more important, learning is no longer in the foreground, and it feels more and more awkward to learn something that hasn't been learned at "its time". There is a whole chapter on this on Heidrun Beer's Life Lesson Processing website, a chapter on Delayed Life Lessons. But she does not mention the cerebellum there. Not every delayed life lesson is a matter of past life trauma, forgotten negative decisions, dark clouds in the energy body, cultural oppression, or a person's life planning prior to birth. Some things simply have never been practiced - never been hardwired into the cerebellum, our inner computer's basic motoric action pattern chip!    

 

By the way... did you know that it is one of the most important factors in anti-aging approaches to keep learning new things? It was discovered only recently that the idea that an adult's brain can grow no new nerve cells was incorrect. The opposite is true: the more a brain is challenged, the more new nerve cells and neuron connections it can grow. New activities - sports - languages - strategy games like chess that require memory and planning - all these things are opportunities for the brain to remain active and stay young.

 

 

 Un-Learning Harmful Habits

 

A completely different situation exists where motoric action patterns have been stored in the cerebellum, but are harmful or have been learned not quite correctly, and there is a  necessity to un-learn them . Piano or voice teachers are in agony when a young student comes in with a wrongly trained finger positioning or breathing technique. Cerebellum storage plays also an important part in many unfortunate habits, and in addictions (read more about that in our Addictions chapter), the most common being the habit of smoking.

 

Yes, the motivation and intention to stay or become well is important, and it is important to find the roots of why a drug or a computer or gambling addiction came about in the first place - but it is just as important to "practice, practice, practice" new good motion patterns that will slowly "overwrite" the bad old ones in the cerebellum. These things cannot be hastened. They require time, persistence and patience, or in one word: discipline. Any practitioner who works with the mind needs to be aware of the importance of cerebellum re-writing if he wants to help a client get rid of an addiction.

 

Start, Change, Stop       We repeat: it is NOT all in the mind. Routine habits like lighting a cigarette are carved in stone, or rather carved in flesh - the flesh of our small brain, the cerebellum. That's where they need to be deleted or overwritten, by frequent practice of a different, non-harmful motion pattern. The secret of cerebellum re-writing lies in the "Start, Change, Stop" concept. At first it may look complicated, because our life consists of so many different motion patterns, but a basic simplicity becomes apparent if you see it this way: There are countless little "movies" stored in the cerebellum. Some of them are perfect the way they are. Some require optimizing - they need to be Changed. Some are harmful - they need to be Stopped. Some would be important but are missing - they need to be Started.   When you have decided that now is the time to start, change or stop any of your cerebellum movies, we will assist you in writing or re-writing the mini screenplay that is the backbone of any such routine, and finally we coach you through making it happen "on stage" - in real life. Life examples - short, compelling! If it is a new routine, we consult you in how to prepare the "stage" - create a space, write a schedule, find or buy the props. If it ties in with a Life Skill, we accompany you in finding the books and the coach necessary to understand and train the new skill. necessary to really zoom in to a very small (ausschnitt) of life. If on the other hand it is a movie that needs to be stopped (will no longer be played in the future), we work out together how to clean up the stage - sell or discard the utensils, redecorate any space that would remind you of it,  do a detox if the body has been affected, say good bye to any people whom you are not going to see anymore. If in any way possible, we develop a new glorious movie with you to replace the old one with something much better. This is of course no longer simple cerebellum re-training, it crosses right over into the are of the Spirit's creative life planning...   We can work with you on such things, but they are best coached by people who live with you and can react to what you are doing at home, in your familiar environment - so we would prefer to work with a family member instead and train him to become your day-to-day coach.

 

 

Book Recommendations:
Norman Doidge:	The Brain That Changes Itself: Stories of Personal Triumph from the Frontiers of Brain Science This heartwarming book is not specifically about the cerebellum, it tells some general stories about the brain's amazing ability to heal itself even in apparently hopeless situations, if family and doctors never give up. Beautiful!

 

 Life Skills and Training

 

What would life skills be? In one short sentence: all the skills that parents and schools taught you after you were born. These are the applications written by your culture and installed in your inner computer, so that you as the computer's user could manage all the tasks that life will require you to manage, once you have no more parents to take care of everything.

 

Reading and writing are two such skills.  Cooking, handling a bank account, making love to your spouse, changing your baby's nappies, splitting firewood, changing a lightbulb - some more. And then of course we have the specialized skills that you need to make a living in a certain profession: how to plough a field, how to milk a cow, how to drive a train, how to extinguish a fire, how to catch a criminal, how to build a skyscraper, how to fly a space shuttle, how to transplant a heart... you get the idea. Sounds simple, doesn't it?

 

Only on the surface, unfortunately. Because like in programming your mind with an operating system that matches your current culture, the programmers of your life's applications have not always been the best and most reliable, and probably left you with some less than optimum "apps". That is the bad news. The good news is that you have a reliable system of alarm signals to detect any and all flaws, and with sufficient energy and knowhow you can troubleshoot one application after the other.

 

This system is located in your energy body, the  Spirit-Mind Interface , more specifically in your emotional body (one of its layers). In slang words, we could call it the "I feel awful" system. Whenever you feel awful about some life skill, or have any other negative feeling about it, there is a good chance that it isn't working the way it should or could. Caused by that lack of performance, you have probably accumulated embarrassing or painful memories as well - so some clearing work will be required -, but at the heart of the situation is the unmastered skill, and only learning that skill will get you into safe waters in the future.

 

 

Life Skill Coaching:   In our Life Skill Coaching, we follow the principle that every skill once learned has to be monitored from there on out. This is the first thing we will ask you to do: observe how your communication with others works, what is good about it, what is bad about it, what is missing. And the same for your money making activities, for your diet, your exercise plan, your health, and more of these routine tasks... you can find a complete list on Heidrun Beer's Life Lesson Processing website on the page about Human Standard Lessons.   Building on that, we will have a closer look at those skills where you say "I feel awful". Or "I feel uncertain". Or "I am confused", "I am unable to cope", "it doesn't work", anything like that. Or "My wife threatens to leave me", or "My boss is going to fire me". We also have a closer look at skills of which we know that in our culture there was a general lack of education. Here you may notice no alarm signal, because everybody else has the same lack of education and so it feels "normal". In our culture, at this time, that would be nutrition, health, lovemaking and spirituality - essential chapters of life where there was very little, wrong or no education, so that it is very likely that you need to catch up. Fortunately three of them are crawling out of the dark ages as we speak - only medicine is still too money motivated to inspect carefully all the work that is done by genius researchers, which is often too cheap and simple to be acceptable.   Next we will do some  Clearing Work  in personal sessions to take away the bad feelings, and then proceed to a thorough analysis of what needs to be done to optimize the activity.  We can do this even with highly specialized life skills, because it always follows the same pattern: What went wrong? What about it had you not fully studied or sufficiently practiced? What book, website or expert can teach it to you, or what drills do you need? (See also our chapter about the Body-Skills Interface, which explains more about the importance of practicing.)   We work with you to get the books and/or find the specialized coach - the dietician, the sex coach, the best of all farmers or firemen or train drivers, the master architect, the heart surgeon, the astronaut -, and keep monitoring your progress until you grin all over your face and are totally happy. After that we give you a little holiday. And then... we do NOT rest on our laurels. We look for the next bad feeling that you have about a life skill, and start working on that...    Did we say "Become your own teacher"? Yes indeed! You don't really need us for this kind of work - but if you feel really discouraged or have ground to a halt, we can help you to get going. Once we have done it together with one life skill or two, you will probably have seen how easy and enjoyable it is, how rewarding, and will continue to work on your own.
