Hello everyone!

I am not a native English speaker, so please excuse my writing English in advance. wink

I really get interested in Photoreading method and I read the Paul Scheele book, and even most people claim it's a big Scam and it does not worth to waste money and time on that book, i decided to have a try.

But since I am a beginner and it is nothing unusual to ask myself whether i do the right technique in order to get things work. Especially with the photoreading part, that i do not know if I am applying the rules correctly.

From the first time, i saw the blip page as it is described in the book and i also saw the 3th thumb, described as a cocktail weenie.

My question is do i need to gaze my eyes and my vision at all and not concentrate at text at all and in the same time if i get this specific gaze required, my text get blurred - is that the text is blurred the non-conscious mind can capture a clear image? And i see the blip page, the pages get distort - i get the feeling that the page from the left side is run over the blip page and i see the effect close to that if i try to see the text using magnifier that i do not point at the right distance. Hopefully you get the point about my explanation for the Blip page....



Question two - apply the technique with soft gaze - is it somewhat that i need to achieve off focus at the text. Also very important part of my question is do you feel any discomfort during applying this focus soft gaze, or is it normal at all to experience any discomfort in eyes in order to achieve result in photoreading?

Thank you very much!

The problems people have with the PhotoReading system is never really with the PhotoReading step.

Soft focus - looking at the page like when you are day dreaming like looking through the book as if it is a window. That's all it takes to photofocus. Doing that you might notice the blip page, you notice the words are blurred, that is only because your BRAIN is focusing further away. Your peripheral awareness still sees the words focused.

So for PhotoReading put the book your normal reading distance away. The text is in focus when your mind is concentrating on it? Then that's the right distance. Go into photofocus keeping the book in the same place, soft focus, relaxed eyes. It may even feel like you are daydreaming. Without changing focus you're still looking off into the distance, can you notice the four corners of the book? Can you notice the pattern of white on the page? Yes? Start flipping the pages while looking through the book, keep a rhythm, say the chant and when done do the next step of the system.

Don't get stuck on the PhotoReading step.

Big thanks! I will share my results after is find out that i can see, the Photoreading really works for me! Why i asked about how to do the right technique was because i wanted to be sure that i am applying the photoreading method properly. Because if i am not sure whether i photoread correct or not, then i will eventually prevent any activation process because of that reason.

P.S. one important question - can photo focus can damage your eyes or photoreading method? As all the text is blurred, also when i try to see the blip page and in order to see it and also keep it till i finish the photoreading step, i can experience pain in the eyes - is that normal?

Kind Regards.

The only way you would damage your eyes if you strain them and forget to blink. Leave them in your head, okay?

It's a "relaxed" gaze. Using your peripheral vision. I've had reports of the technique improving the eyesight. I still have the same eyes I had since I started PhotoReading in 2002. Still work fine for me.
