A really powerful tool for meditation is called Holosync. The web page for it is at
www.centerpointe.com Holosync is also endorsed by Pete Bissonette. Holosync is a series of tapes that will put your mind into a meditative state. A tape that is really good for PhotoReading is call Quietude. Quietude will increase the alpha waves that are necessary for PhotoReading.
I think the introductory set of tapes is about $200 but it is well worth the price.
