Martin Koban - 2013

I was stretching regularly, warming up before games, strengthening my legs, and doing whatever else doctors suggested might help. However, the pain never stopped. Sure, some days were better than others were, but I was still in pain and my athletic performance was severely handicapped. I was frustrated with my lack of progress, and I couldn’t believe that for all the effort and dedication I put into my training, I was being punished with pain that was impossible to get rid of. The worst part was that every time I thought I had made progress, the pain returned. The whole experience was so depressing that I almost quit playing my sport. Today, my knees are completely pain-free. I can play my favorite sports and train exercises that are extremely tough on my knees, such as deep single-leg squats, without having to worry about knee pain. I would have never imagined this to be possible. Today, my legs are stronger than before my injury, and the best part is that I know exactly how I can continue to get them into even better shape without any risk. The reason I struggled with patellar tendonitis for so long wasn’t my fault. I already knew some of the things I had to do, but to beat the odds, I needed to fix a number of hidden causes for patellar tendonitis and learn how to strengthen my weakened knees without reinjuring them.

Tess seems to be the main reason smart, talented, twenty-four-year-old Eric is staying in town, though her mom, a centerfold-quality beauty, would have it otherwise.

Time for a Change


Richard Bandler - 1993
    The light and entertaining style sustained throughout the book belies the density of the presentation. Bandler describes belief and hypnosis as closely related allies in healing and transformation. Through hypnosis we can create powerful beliefs, and beliefs are "the express train to deep hypnosis". His NLP attitude installation, in the first chapter, works impressively well. Readers progress systematically to develop the skills necessary to build our own mind machine. You can automatically change destructive beliefs to doubts, and replace them with valuable beliefs, as fast as you can find them. Later chapters polish off hypnosis with Bandler's "favourite hypnotic phenomenon," time distortion. He gives us surprising ways to elicit and apply them. He leads us beyond hypnosis to hyperesthesia. Have you ever been lusciously aware of every detail of an overwhelming sunset or symphony or massage? Would you like that to happen more? Finally, and too soon, the book closes with suggestions. By following the last instructions we can design whole new kinds of good feelings to enjoy and new states of consciousness to explore ... if you have time.
