 Meditation is Beneficial, but NOT a Rapid Transformation Tool As the Omega Mind Program reaches many more people, we frequently get questions about “deep meditation.” Does this program help me meditate deeply? Other programs or software claim I’ll get to instant Zen states or have Monk-like meditation. Will I quickly find true bliss in life?
This is a rather rich and complicated question. Since many people have asked, I thought I’d post my thoughts.
Generally, yes, the Omega Mind Program helps you meditate very deeply and provides the guardrails and on-ramp to get there quickly and effectively. However, our goal with this program isn’t deep meditation. We are trying to transform lives and get brains to rewire themselves. Meditation-like states, for us, are ONE of the tools to help get there.
The Monk’s Life
A Zen Monk may ultimately achieve, or rather, drift into, a state of bliss. They master mind states with mentoring, practice and tuned, gentle, mastery of their will, attention, and intention. These monks often have a lifestyle of simplicity, quietude, meditation, and service. They let go of most attachments to the world, to people, to things, and cease grasping at the concepts that swirl through the world around them. From this baseline, they follow a spiritually informed path that often leads to deep contentment and what we might call bliss. As this is their life’s goal, they often do find what can be called bliss.

  Just Listen to Reprogram Your Brain There are a wide variety of products and programs that offer to help you grow and achieve in various ways. Many of these programs offer substantial benefits over a period of weeks or months. Very few personal growth approaches offer significant long term change and help you operate at a higher level. The market is also saturated with copycat products and simplistic placebos. This has ultimately convinced many people that the personal development and self-help field is less than wonderful.
I have tried and reviewed many of these and look for the theory and core efficacy in every offering and technique. In every article, book, or study, I look for repeatable gains and benefits. Though many products and individual techniques offer some benefits, none offer the long term potential I believe is possible. I’ve always believed personal development programs could be taken to vastly improved levels. The journey and commitment is still long, but the accumulated results could be much greater.
Over time, I’ve used passionate curiosity and mental rigor as a guide. I discuss and validate the concepts at length, including working with psychiatrists and psychologists to get their perspective on these non-medical products. My current theory and perspective in personal development builds on many great teachers, researchers, leaders, and thinkers.
I have gradually synthesized a hybrid neurological, psychological, and developmental framework for human growth and achievement. For over three decades, I have been creating programs of various types to help people in their quest for personal growth and achievement.

The Omega Mind Program builds on our other successful and powerful program, The Secret Brain Transformation Program (“classic”). Both programs employ intensely powerful techniques, leveraging recent theory in neuroscience to dramatically extend time-tested and proven self-improvement and transformation methods.
The classic program is essentially content free, leaving you to follow directions and mind your thoughts at all times as you learn its techniques to re-goal your brain and mind. Although positive changes occur along the way, it may take a few months to achieve the first shocking “aha” with the classic program – a point when you know positively you have a new hyper-powerful tool for change.

“The Relaxation Response,” by Herbert Benson, is a seminal work in the relationship of relaxation and physiological stress. The book reveals Benson’s research to show that relaxation practices have long lasting effects, well beyond the relaxation practice itself. An excellent and influential book and highly suggested reading if your curious as to how relaxation, performance, and physiologic stress are related.
Your brain holds the secret to how we grow, when we grow, and when we don’t. Using modern brain understanding and tools, we can dramatically change ourselves over time. The cast-in-stone nature of personality of behavior can be reshaped.
We’ve all heard references to the popular book, “The Secret.” We’ve all heard numerous references to hidden and untapped power of the brain, your unconscious, your spiritual oneness, paths to enlightenment. These are often riddled with promise of easy paths to abundance, peace, and happiness.
I have always been intrigued and driven to understand why some aspects of our human personality are fluid and flexible, while others are almost immutable, even when we desire ourselves to be different. I’ve synthesized information from neurology to cognitive science, neural networks to coherence theories, psychology and self help practices, and even the religious spectrum, including Catholicism, Christianity, Buddhism, atheism, and others.
If you read these pages, try the approaches, and see for yourself, I believe you will an exceptional, holistic paradigm and novel approach. Nothing I’ve found comes close in the long term. I’ve decided to package my years of research, learning, and coaching, and personal development support on the web.
