ABOUT THE HYPNOTIC TRANCE AUDIO
Throughout this book you will find a powerful hypnotic trance audio that will program your mind to build and enrich your happiness throughout your life. If you cannot listen to this audio on your device, please go to http://downloads.paulmckenna.com and enter this code: 727YTTR3E.
It is best to listen to the trance when you have about half an hour to relax completely.
Do not use the hypnotic trance audio whilst driving or operating machinery.
Even if you didnt read a single word in this book and only used the hypnotic trance audio, you would still notice an amazing increase of happiness in your life.
Your mind is like a computer. It has its own software which organizes your thinking and behaviour. Having worked with all sorts of people with different problems over the years, I have learned that almost all their problems were caused by a negative program running in the unconscious mind. This hypnotic trance audio helps you remove negative thinking and installs positive programs which seek out and magnify the factors that create your happiness. It guides the unconscious mind to assist you and boost the effect of all the exercises in the book.
The hypnotic trance audio also contains an amazing new process that delivers the same states of mind as twenty years of practice of meditation. You dont have to know anything about meditation and you dont have to believe in it. Just use the hypnotic trance audio and you can get the benefits of the technique.
The hypnotic element has been carefully crafted to work with you at the pace set by your own unconscious mind. It will help you to relax to the right level for you each time you use it. The benefits will become stronger and stronger each time you listen.
INTRODUCTION
You are about to have a life-changing experience. It doesnt matter whether you are sad, bored, down, depressed, doing all right or quite happy the system in this book will help you become a whole lot happier very soon.
The scientific research shows that happiness levels are not fixed. To increase your happiness levels takes a small amount of regular effort over a few days. Following simple instructions and using some powerful psychological techniques, you can transform your life. You will create a strong underlying feeling of happiness every day and have more and more times of realizing rich, deep, fulfilling happiness throughout your life.
This is a factual, practical book. I suggest you test everything to see how it works. Please dont just take it on trust. Make sure that everything you do works for you.
My techniques draw on the most recent scientific and psychological advances and I have tested every technique in this system personally over and over again. In the last twenty-five years I have worked with people who are totally and utterly depressed and people who are happy, and I have figured out the difference between the two. Surprisingly it comes down to just a few small but important differences in the way they think and act. Those differences have a massive effect on the quality of your life.
To make yourself happier, all you have to do is to follow some simple instructions every day.
Cut out the middleman
In the West lots of people spend time and effort getting things they believe will make them happy, like new clothes or a new car. Sometimes it works for a while, but the good feeling fades quickly and they need another new thing to make them happy. So they spend more time and effort and money to buy the next thing.
The system in this book and hypnotic trance audio takes a different route. This book increases your happiness directly. Think of all the things youd like to have right now. Take a moment to list the top ten things you really want. Now think of them all and ask yourself, when I have these, how will I feel? When you get them, you will feel good. Ultimately, when you buy anything you are buying good feelings. As you use the system in this book, you can cut out all those middlemen and increase your happiness right now.
There are lots of different techniques in the book and, depending on your psychology, some will work more quickly than others. So, even if at first you feel just one or two have an immediate impact, surely it is worth reading the whole book and using all the exercises to find which ones work best in the long term.
Happiness is natural
Happiness is a natural human state, like hunger, anger, excitement, boredom, neutrality and alertness. Absolutely everyone can be happy. Happiness is how the mind and body guide you towards what is most rewarding for you. Happiness is not just a pleasurable sensation. When you are on a path that brings you happiness, it will guide you, perhaps in surprising ways, to more happiness.
