Margaret,
Thanks for the useful tips. I've been photoreading for about two months. If anything, it's helped me feel calmer about all the reading I need to do.
One weird thing happened to me after I had photoread the photoreading book and was activating it. I was on page 86 and they were suggesting ways to set the mood for reading. They hadn't mentioned anything about using music, so I looked up that word in the index. Music was mentioned on page 87, like I knew it was coming up.
That gave me a little bit of faith, but since then, I think I expect too much.
