The ELEMENTS OF STYLE, by Strunk and White, was a small book of quick and useful descriptions of the most important elements in the best use of the English language. The ELEMENTS OF WISDOM AND FOLLY does the same in the area of self-help psychology. You are invited to explore the ideas, adventures and strategies that have been most useful in my life, and in the lives of friends, students and patients.

ADVENTURES AND STRATEGIES

The 75 Elements in the book invite you to explore and enhance basic aspects of your life, and gives you the tools to make major changes, if you do not like what you find. The description of the different Elements are very short, and require work. You will often be exploring different aspects of your life for a week or more. Some Elements are fun adventures. Others will change your life, if that is your wish.

DEEP RELAXATION

This is a very long, very detailed, very effective relaxation program that will create a very powerful RELAX trigger to use in many ways. Along with the ability to create deep relaxation, the program can also be a jumping off place for various adventures. For instance, when you are in a deep state of relaxation fantasy trips are much more vivid.

I have also used deep relaxation for age regression&suggesting that you go back in time, though your teen years, grammar school, pre-school, learning to walk, to when you were born. And then back in time before that, to a previous life. Most of the people bring back past lives, and are very excited by what they find. Of course with no collaborating evidence the probability is that what they found is only a very enjoyable fantasy trip. But who knows. I still enjoy magic, so 10% of me believes what they brought back is real.

WISDOM AND FOLLY FROM MANY PEOPLE

The book ends with over 275 quotations from many people which have made me smile and affected my life in important ways, such as the one by Frank Herbert who wrote the Dunes series:

Always look beyond what you think you know.

I wish you well on your journey.
