Thresholds of the Mind by Bill Harris
Author, Bill Harris, takes you on a fascinating journey of discovery through the structure and workings of the human mind. He then presents irrefutable, hard scientific evidence of the powerful benefits of meditation and explains how and why the human brain reacts the way it does. Bill cites research from a host of highly acclaimed scientists (including two Nobel Laureates), from respected institutions such as Harvard Medical School, Princeton, MIT, Mt. Sinai Medical Center, University of California Medical School, UCLA, The Menninger Foundation, Marie Curie Cancer Memorial Foundation Research Department, and more. But, more importantly, he presents this valuable information in an easy to understand, easy to apply manner, which allows even the casual reader to benefit significantly from this important new book. Proving the scientific benefits of deep meditation is just the beginning. Harris then shows readers how they donÂ't have to invest years or decades practicing traditional meditation before they reap any significant benefits. He goes on to describe how anyone can use Holosync , a proprietary audio technology developed by Centerpointe Research Institute (of which he is Director), to immediately achieve a deeper meditative state than is typically reached by masters of the traditional practice. This leads to a dramatic acceleration of mental, emotional, and spiritual change. In Thresholds of the Mind you will learn... The true science showing how and why meditation is the ultimate personal growth technique... Why traditional meditation is such a slow process, and how you can get the benefits of decades of deep meditation in a fraction of the time... The scientific principles governing mental, emotional, and spiritual change, and how you can use this information to greatly accelerate your growth... Nine Principles which, if mastered, can change your life forever, leading to increased success, lasting happiness, and inner peace... How to allow positive--without resistance and discomfort...

In his role as Director of Centerpointe Research Institute, Bill is the creator of The End Personal Growth Through Technology program. This on-going personal development program utilizes the Holosync sound technology, embedded beneath soothing music and environmental sounds on cassette tape, to induce deep states of meditation and to cause the human nervous system to reorganize at higher levels of functioning.
