Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer Rookie

Ok,
I'm new to this. I suppose I'm looking for support and insight into PhotoReading. For me, much of the PR process isn't any different than 'conventional' reading. However, I am truly fascinated at the PR step itself. I have no doubt that the mind can take in volumes of information at a much greater rate than we traditionally accept. I am also a reiki practitioner. The concepts of reiki, qiqong, and photoreading have a great deal of overlap. I know we are capable of doing and acheiving a great deal more than what we put as limits upon ourselves.
I'm not using the photoreading concepts on any material that I am 'life dependant' upon; as to not 'force' it to happen. I am doing my best to -just let it happen-.
So...
what I'm wondering is,
is anyone actually photoreading to read, or is it all of the combined steps. After previewing, superreading, dipping, rapidreading, and mapping... I have a pretty darn good idea of the content of the book without the photoreading step. However, I was thoroughly intrigued, and I hope not duped, by the infomercial of a guy photreading (this step alone ) and having fantastic recall.
Can anyone give me insight as to their experience on the photoreading step? Did the light just go on one day and 'bampf!' you got it??

Rhino:

For a book that intimidates me, or one that i really need to know, this is what i have done successfully: I use the Personal Genius tape to set the goal. Then i PhR the book until i get a "feel" for it. I also use Memory Supercharger b/f sleep.

This has worked very well. If i'm intimidated or feel challenged, i don't even bother w/ previewing or trigger words. I just PhR it in combination w/ those 2 tapes. Plus, i only use Personal Genius once. I will use Memory Supercharger at night a few times.

What has happened in the past is that i just suddenly get a feeling that it is something i can do. The intimidation leaves me & i just suddenly get ideas how to tackle the information. It's at that point that i do the preview & pull trigger words. Or, i'll decide where i want to start if it's a very large book w/ lots of information.

Activating is pulling it all together. However, if i'm very challenged, forget it. I need to acually feel that i can do it. I have completed books w/ terrific success & been tested to prove this success. So, for me, PhRing to get comfortable has definitely worked. I hope this is what you were asking about.

Hello Magaret i've a question. What is Memory Supercharger?
How does it work?

I photoread EVERYTHING especially "life dependant" material. And thats how you should go about it, use it for everything. It has a very shallow learning curve if you just want to be able to use it. If you want to get really good and fast at it of course it will take more patience

It is a paraliminal tape from LS. Read up on the paraliminal info at this site. It's just like all their paraliminals. Good luck

Thank you Margaret!
I would also appreciate hearing from others on their experience with the with the photoreading step ( self contained ).
For the past 3 nights I have photoread the same book. As of yet, no activiation has occured simply on it's own. I understand that this, like any other muscle, takes time to develop. I'm just anxious to hear success stories from others as related to this step.
As for the PR Whole Mind System,
I have no complaints. I have used it on a few books so far and found that in the course of about 1-2 hours, I have a significant understanding of the book! About the same amount as if I had spent 10 or more hours reading the book conventionally. The suite of techniques used in the whole mind system are great.
However, I find that this works best for non-fiction, where I am able to take out the required information. The 80/20 rule. This doesn't have the same effect for me in novels. Steinbeck just doesn't have the same imagery if you dip into key areas of interest. I miss out on the whole picture that the author is painting.
This is where I am hoping that the PR step itself would come in. However, as of yet, no light has switched on for me in this area. Knowing personal success stories related to this step would be highly appreciated!

Yes, it has worked for me w/ novels. I have had more success w/ novels than w/ books i have to study. It's probably more of a mental block. That's ok b/c it's an easy fix.
