Where do I begin? I suppose you would have to know a bit of my story to understand why I pursued Brain Optimization. From childhood, I never felt safe, secure or loved. I was in a broken home with cops arriving every so often to check in on the screaming the neighbors complained about. This was the beginning of my life long journey with insomnia. When I was 29, I had my first abortion which scarred me so severely that I wasn’t able to go into my relationships that followed without residual fear. Relationships were terrifying. I came across a loving man who accepted all aspects of me including my fears, but he got be pregnant during a time that neither one of us could afford to keep the baby. I decided to do an open adoption. This was by far the hardest thing I’d ever done and thoughts of not wanting to live haunted me daily. I had no love left. Just fear, indifference and I was completely incapable of any kind of gratitude though I had much to be grateful for. I couldn’t concentrate on reading or for that matter participate in conversation. Everything revolved around my sad cloud. Nothing could exist beyond it. All of this changed when I met Ann Vogal. I can’t tell you how many books I’ve read this year. It’s like an inner child woke up that was hungry to learn and is now capable of soaking in info like a sponge. My roommate and I have both noticed a huge difference in how I now can articulate events in detail. My attention span has improved so much that I’m now excited to participate in conversations and go to social events. I now love people with the ease that I haven’t seen since before my childhood trauma’s. I can go on and on. I am a huge believer. Yes it’s expensive, but I feel it’s worth it if you can become reunited to you full potential. It’s the best ride you’ll find at the carnival. Thank you Ann!

This business is one of the BEST investments I have ever made in my entire life. I have spent thousands of dollars on coaching and mind products and most of the had marginal results. Making an educated guess, I would say that it is because everyone was always using conscious level approaches to attempt to fix subconscious problems in which is highly ineffective. I am a mind practioner myself and so I can unlimited access to my own tools however, I also enjoy expereincing other modalities(tired of hearing my own voice… I guess) and I was referred by a client who was cured of Sleep Apnea. This is a notoriously difficult area to treat and I have moderatley successful results in this area myself, but I recognize that any modality that can treat this is definitely worth checking out. So after filling out a questionnaire, I showed up and l learned about the process. In Ann Vogel’s practice she uses sound technology and I got to read, rest, and sometimes conversate while my mind was being painlessly mapped and sounds and waves were transmitted through headphones. Here are the results: Day 1: I discovered I procrastinate and I was conscious of the process and I essentially was able to be 70% more efficient from a lack of this procrastination. My drive increased and I was able to stick to my tasks at hand. Day 2: I was less bothered by stupid situations and annoying people, and for some reason my hearing increased and I was able to hear audible sounds that I normally would have ignored. I was also slightly more motivated than usual and was more optomistic. Day 3: I was more focused and had more drive to accomlish more in the day and I was procrastinating even less! My distracting thoughts began to subside by 1⁄3 and I was worried before about money… same problems with an emotional disattachment. Your thoughts are so much clearer! Day 4: More drive, and focus, and my creativity seemed to increase significantly. My worries about money and women seemed to decrease a bit more than the day before. Day 5: My multitasking efficiency skills have increased significantly and I was able to accomplish about 5 more tasks than I had before. I also have been able to meditate for 10 minutes in which before it was hard to meditate for 2 minutes. My consistency is increasing. Day 6: I became less shy and more open minded. I purchased 2 tickets for an event in which I don’t think I would have been brave enough to go to. Let’s just say the event is local to the Bay Area and its like a masquarade event with an adult twist. Still working hard, progressing and becoming more organized, and determined to finish my tasks while planning other tasks to accomplish. Day 7: Very unique day. I was unusually more compassionate than I usually am. I spoke with a homeless male and even bought him a coffee and bagel. He lost everything from alcoholism and was even in an AA program. I was able to give him advice. Normally I would have gave him $ 5 and moved to another table. I was able to give him advice, be calm, and still work on my graduate school homework and emails. This techonolgy apparently is also an assist to being well rounded. Day 8: More patient. I am NOT a patient person and the idea of patience makes me impatient. Still driven, organized, good at multitasking… just enjoying the perks. Day 9: Bad day because my phone went out and lost all my pictures and contacts. However, I was not bothered so much and my persistence increased significantly. I was focused and calm about what I needed to do although I was a slight bit annoyed about the phone thing– who wouldn’t be? Day 10: Got a new phone. Happier, blessed, focused, determined, feeling like I have a secret weapon in which gives me the unfair advantage and about to mix this with the benefits of Hypnotherapy. Worth the cost. Also as an fyi Ann is like a pocket genius and marketing guru. She gave me 3 ideas in which when I apply will probably make me $ 3,000.00. WOW! Okay so that’s the experience. I sure wish I found this before the others. I hope one day they create something in their technology to enhance your natural skills and abilities. I doubt they are too far from that. This stuff rocks! :)
