One of my family members has recently been diagnosed with schizophrenia. We're all feeling pretty out of our depth and were wondering if you have any comments to help us?

Not being a medical person, it is difficult for me to comment. There was a wonderful film produced, not that long ago, called "A Beautiful Mind" based on the book by Sylvia Nasar.

I've tried, but I haven't yet made Mind Charts work for me.

Mind Charts are an effective way of using your whole brain to summarise and recall important information. Sometimes new things take a while to perfect.

Can I use your techniques to become motivated?

I really think that motivation is a matter of being able to motivate yourself. Nobody can motivate you for more than a few days - it needs to last.

I find background baroque music distracting. What shall I do?

You are not supposed to listen to the music whilst it's in the background - your heart "listens" to it. My initial thought would be to turn down the volume.

Some of my family are not believing in the process I'm taking to work towards healing - any advice?

Dr Bernie Siegel in the movie "Leap of Faith", advised his group of people who were working with a life-threatening illness, to surround themselves with supportive people. If that meant excluding some members of their own family, then so be it.

How do I overcome recurring negative and limiting thought patterns?

It's always best to talk to yourself as though supporting a 3-year-old and get rid of unwanted thoughts by using the methods of "letting them go", as described in the above two answers.

Which would be the better state in which to control pain?

The Theta state is a better state to use for controlling pain, but it can also be done in the Alpha state. Care must be taken with use of language, because pain is a signal that something is wrong with our body; it is necessary to find out what causes that pain.

After being in Alpha and opening your eyes is there any other reinforcing action that can be taken?

When I come back from one to five and open my eyes I always say "I'm relaxed, well, healthy and invigorated". I just use those four words.

Here's another example of sabotage, which occurred in a seminar.

There was a gentleman who was about 70 years old, and loved horses. He's the original horse whisperer! He could get on the back of any horse in half an hour, and he described himself as a horse psychologist.

I get VERY nervous when speaking to a group of people.

I am attending Toastmasters which I love - however I realise that my problem is nerves in front of people I know - I could address a large crowd of strangers with no trouble at all - but even a small group of people I know makes me physically shake so much I cannot hold a pen - and my heart beat so hard I can hardly breathe.

I have been doing creative visualization for the last 5 months very seriously

I started by imagining a face, which is based on my memory of a person who worked in the same organisation as I did. That's where I am having difficulty.

I have an extremely busy schedule - am often stressed and feel angry, and I know that I don't like myself.

I am reading "Piece Of Mind" and am just beginning to realise that my weight issue could be caused through my lack of self esteem. Any hope for me? Could you suggest a program?

Some days I've found myself at high levels of stress without realising it was happening, and I find the 30 second technique is not enough to release it. What can I do?

If you find yourself at a very high level of stress (anxiety) it will take longer ? maybe 10 to 20 minutes ? to bring yourself down to desired levels.

My self-confidence is extremely low, and I have no motivation to work at it. How can I overcome this?

What I believe is that when you recognise a life challenge, or issue which is holding you back, then you're 50% of the way through the challenge. The next 25% is saying - Yes, I want to do something about it.

I often wake up during the night and find it difficult to get back to sleep - any suggestions?

The main thing to do is to break the pattern of not being able to go to sleep again. What I suggest is to get out of bed, and then commence the normal routine you use to go to sleep at night.

Please help - I want to quit smoking!

Most of the information you require is in my book "Piece of Mind". It is really important to have a good understanding of how the brain works - so don't just skip the book and get to the part on quitting smoking.

Here is a letter I received and my answer - I hope it sparks an interest.

I am contacting you with one main goal...to pick your brain about getting 'life strategies/skills' material into schools as is mandatory as English, Mathematics, Geography, Economic, Business classes.

I find certain meetings at work difficult.

There's one person who is really aggressive and when they 'have a go' at me, I blush and stammer and my mind goes blank. And I'm really upset for the rest of the day.

Writing

Just thought you might like an update on my last letter so that you can ponder whether it’s G.I. or talent – but I have won the Henry Lawson Adult Short Story Award and the 30 inch statuette of Henry Lawson is sitting on the mantelpiece just as I imagined
