Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer Subliminal Dynamics & Brain Management

Hello - Hi I was wondering if anyone here has heard of Subliminal Dynamics & Brain Management by Richard Welch. I hear that Paul Scheele, and Pete Bissonette have taken his course and derived the photoreading techniques from Welch's course. Thank you very much.

Please advise. I am only able to find one referense to this and its in German. Nothing found on amazon.com.

Where could I find a copy of that book?

Regarding Richard Welch. He is definitely one of the innovators of "mentally photographing" printed materials, the idea has been around for over a century. But, he is absolutely not the inventor of it nor is he the inventor of PhotoReading. I mention this because we have learned he has promoted his seminar as the "PhotoReading" seminar in Australia.

The input process of the two systems where you "mentally photograph" the printed page are very similar.

The differences lie in 1) methods of teaching people to use and integrate the system, and 2) "Activation" techniques. These activate information into the conscious mind so that you can more readily use the information.

Their course relies on spontaneous activation--"Keep at it and eventually it will happen." Unfortunately, that is not practical in today's information-based world.

PhotoReading goes further by giving you tools to access and utilize the information, so you can get the comprehension you need in the time you have to work with.

PhotoReading is a practical, systematic way to increasing your reading speed, comprehension, retention significantly. There is a satisfaction guarantee and free coaching support for assistance along the way as you develop your skill.

Every aspect of PhotoReading is detailed in our easy-to-read book "The PhotoReading
Whole Mind System." There are no "secrets."

Most people find PhotoReading more thorough and more practical.

I have looked at both courses, and will most probably give photoreading a shot. The thing that persuaded me not to go for the course available at subdyn.com though, was the fact that they are trying to put down Paul Scheele and LSC on their website. It's like, "oh Paul Scheele, he did our course, he didn't develop this, we taught him,his course is no good, we know some people who think it's no good, our course is really good, at least compared to his **** course, his course is just a really plain course on study techniques, really, that's what I've heard, we've heard nasty things about his friends too, his company is reaaaaalllly uncool....
.... ..... ....... ...."

Well, it goes a bit like that, anyway. Subliminal Dynamics might have a great course. But with that they blew the chances of having yours truly as a customer. It's marketing for dickheads, maybe they should photoread, sorry, mentally photograph a few books on proper marketing techniques. If they already have, well, that's another good reason not to buy their course.

hahhahahaha

I looked at their (SUbDynamic) site for a while and didn't see anything about a guarantee and I emailed them about it because a friend of mine (who read the PR book) wanted to try it but they didn't get back to me about the guarantee and that probably means they ain't got one. What does that tell you?

I also emailed LearningStrategies about it and Paul emailed me back explaining the differences in the courses while not saying anything negative about Subliminal Dynamics which was cool. Plus if you want to learn PR thru a book at first you have that option. SubDyn only has that $400 course. I would never have plunked down the $$$ for the PR course without reading about it first.

I also want to add that SUbDyn is claiming on their site that they have students comming up with 100% comprehension! Paul doesn't even claim to have that kind of comprehension.

so i guess this subliminal thing is hogus bogus, cause honestly when i called the lady over the phone, she said "100% comprehension, 100% retention". but i guess if they just rely on spontaneous activation, then it doesnt really work (or rahter, it's not really new per se and much different than PR (since it seems like the PR step is wat they're doin).. aite, coo'

hey andy, mind forwarding me that reply from Paul? ahdy2000@hotmail.com

thx
ahdy

p.s they do have a refund, but it's something like 25% less for "restocking" and even that sounded sketchy

I emailed it to you and I'll post it here for everyone. I emailed LearnStrat and told them a friend of mine was going to buy the "other" course and I wanted him to get PR instead and basically asked "if you know, what are the differences in the courses?"

Hi Andy,

Thanks for your note. Here is what I tell people about the comparison
between PhotoReading and Subliminal Dynamics.

At one time I promoted Richard Welch and the Subliminal Dynamics
program
to several classes full of my clients. My hat is tipped to him in my
PhotoReading book for suggesting the concept of subliminal perception
as
a tool for reading. In truth, he now uses my name without permission in
an attempt to bring credibility to a system of his that I do not feel
delivers the promised result.

I cannot endorse nor recommend in any way that you invest in the
Subliminal Dynamics home study course.

My work diverges from his in three major ways.

1) The key is not subliminal perception. The key is the brain's
capacity
for preconscious processing. I've spent my years developing a protocol
to capture this capacity and put it reliably in the hands of our
clients. (Reference the work of N.F. Dixon from England, and P. Lewicki
at Tulsa University, Oklahoma).

2) Neuro-Linguistic Programming is the basis for our techniques of
putting folks in contact with the resources of the nonconscious data
storage systems of the brain for activation and recall.

3) Accelerative, brain-based teaching and learning are essential in the
design and delivery of our programs, including the design of the book.

If you are interested in a home study course, the PhotoReading Personal
Learning Course is an excellent addition and support to the live
PhotoReading course. If you attended a course from a Learning
Strategies
Corporation certified PhotoReading instructor, you will be eligible for
a discount on the purchase of the home study
course.

Also the new 3rd edition of the PhotoReading book contains a number of
additions to
the Activation chapter that you might find valuable.

Andy, your friend should feel free to call us here and ask any
questions
he wants. We guarantee his satisfaction with our course.

-- Sincerely,

Paul R. Scheele
Chairman

Here is a reply from a person who tried subliminal dynamics and photoreading.

To All,

I am currently going through the Richard Welch Subliminal Dynamics and Brain
Management study course. It cost $417.00 so I split the cost with a friend.
I find it better than Photoreading and I can see where Paul Scheele got a
lot of his techniques from. On day 4 of the course they have you Mentally
Photograph (their term) upside down and backwards the book The Pearl by John
Steinbeck 3 times in a row. I have never "read" the book. After
photographing the book you then immediately, no 24 hour delay, take a
comprehension test. There are 3 sections on this test: True/False, Multiple
Choice, and Fill-In the Blank. Statistically speaking you will get 40%
correct on T/F, 20% correct on MC, and 0% correct on Fill-In if you have
never read the book before. These numbers come from the National Testing
Institute. There are 33 T/F, 10 MC, and 7 Fill-In the Blank. My score on
this test was 60%. I got a total of 30 questions correct out of a possible
50. Here is a breakdown of my individual scores: out 33 T/F I got 20
correct (60%), out of 10 for the MC I got 5 correct(50%), out of 7 for the
Fill-In I got 5 correct(72%). In all 3 areas I scored higher than the
average. Of the ones I did get wrong half of those were due not to a wrong
answer but to my conscious mind discounting what my subconscious told me to
write down. My actual score if I had listened to my subconscious would be
80% or higher. After reading the Photoreading Whole Mind System book and
going through only day 4 of the course so far (3 days left) I find it
superior to Photoreading. You are suppose to retake the test after you do
some activation techniques. I expect after this my comprehension will be
above 90%.
The Welch system is very simple. There are exercises you must do on a
day-to-day basis. After 30 days the system is locked in. It also gives the
Einstein Distraction Index drill and I am curious as to what my focus and
concetration time limit are. Einstein's was 42 minutes at a time.

Using the Welch method Image Streaming becomes an activation method. So not
only do you get an increase of IQ by 10 points for every 11 hours of Image
Streaming but you get fantastic recall and comprehension. Also one of the
exercises they have you do is a peripheral eye exercise drill. This
increases it to 220 degrees. You are awareness becomes phenomenal of things
going on around you.

After you go through day 4 the recommend you photograph and activate about
10 books a day including a daily dictionary drill. The recommend using
Positive Motivational Books. They also give techniques for reprogramming
the subconscious, entering the Alpha State, using beta, alpha, theta, and
delta together, and a manifestation technique that is supposed to manifest
your wants in 48 hours. I have 24 hours left. It takes a couple of times
to get it right though. But once you learn it alleges that your wants you
program for will manifest themselves. I'll wait and see on that.

If anyone else has taken the course please let me know.

Chris Thomas

Now to the main point of this. Has anyone else out there taken the Richard
Welch Subliminal Dynamics Course? I have completed the course and I am
beginning my 30 days of wiring it in. If anyone else has taken it what were
the results of it? The mixing of the relaxation technique with Image
Streaming is producing some unusual results. First you photograph books on
the subject you wish to know and then you Image Stream to bring the
knowledge of the subject to conscious awareness. After a while your Image
Sream gets ahead of your words. The images begin to hit you faster and
stronger than normal. My Image Stream has primarily become a problem
solving tool. I am keeping records of this for the entire 30-day period and
will post them when I am done. The areas that I will be keeping records in
are the following: Increased Awareness, Difference in Perception, Increased
& Detailed Peripheral Vision, Intuition (Premonitions), More Confidence,
Higher Intensity of Colors, More Detailed Visual Clarity, Higher Energy
Levels, Decreased Stress Levels, Better Organization, Sleep Cycles, Image
Streaming Records, Alpha Level Programming Results, Problem Solving
Abilities, Language Acquisition and Ability, and Comprehension of New
Science Material. My goal for the next 3 months is to learn Physics,
Electrical Engineering, and Mathematics to the 400+ level (I am now at the
200 and 300 levels), learn Hebrew, Koine Greek, Spanish, Swedish, Chinese,
Japanese, Russian, German, and Quechua (Incan Language), Wing Tsun,
ZuiJuiQuan, Uechi Ryu, and Kempo.
They claim others have been able to
master such a variety of subjects in a similar period of time. We will see.

To give everyone an idea of
what the Richard Welch course does can best be describe by calling it the
wetware version of the loader program in the movie The Matrix.
