Selling to the Old
Brain: How New Discoveries In Brain Research Empower You To Influence
Any Audience, Anytime
What is the Old Brain and why is it important to anyone?
New research in neuroscience reveals that the human brain is categorized
into three separate parts that act as separate organs with different
cellular structures and different functions:
The "New Brain" thinks; it processes rational data.
The "Middle Brain" feels; it processes emotions and feelings.
The "Old Brain" decides; it reviews input from the other two brains
and controls the decision making process.
Traditionally, we have been taught to communicate to the New Brain,
logically and rationally, while failing to address the true decision
maker, the primitive Old Brain, in a language it can understand.
In this groundbreaking book, authors teach how to build and deliver
messages that provide maximum impact by speaking directly to the
Old Brain. The principles in this unique book will revolutionize
the way executives, marketing and sales professionals communicate
and sell so they successfully influence any audience, anytime.

Data Smog : Surviving
the Information Glut
Revised and Updated Edition
Media scholar (and Internet Enthusiast) David Shenk examines the troubling
effects of information proliferation on our bodies, our brains,
our relationships, and our culture, then offers strikingly down-to-earth
insights for coping with the deluge.
With a skillful mixture of personal essay, firsthand reportage, and
sharp analysis, Shenk illustrates the central paradox of our time:
as our world gets more complex, our responses to it become increasingly
simplistic.He draws convincing links between data smog and stress
distraction, indecision, cultural fragmentation, social vulgarity,
and more.
But there's hope for a saner, more meaningful future, as Shenk offers
a wealth of novel prescriptions—both personal and societal—for
dispelling data smog. |

High Focus: Activate
Lucid Thinking
In this program, pure Beta window frequencies bring you to a high-powered,
high-performance brain state ideal for quick thinking and deep
concentration. Boost your ability to focus mentally and concentrate
for extended periods of time. The program's subtle, nondistracting
sounds make it ideal for use while you work, study or write. Psychiatrists
and therapists have found High Focus beneficial in treating Attention
Deficit Disorder. Athletes and sports trainers tell us it's excellent
preparation for physical activities that involve hand-eye coordination,
such as tennis or golf. Beta frequencies and the nondistracting
sound of wind.
You are wide-awake, alert. Your mind is sharp, focused. It makes connections
quickly, easily and you're primed to do work that requires your
full attention. In the Beta state, neurons fire abundantly, in
rapid succession, helping you achieve peak performance. New ideas
and solutions to problems flash like lightning into your mind.
Beta training is one of the frequencies that biofeedback therapists
use to treat Attention Deficit Disorder.
Beta-centered programs help you prepare to take an exam, play sports,
give a presentation, analyze and organize information, and other
activities where mental alertness and high levels of concentration
are key to your success.

Deep
Learning: Enhance Memory and Concentration
Ever wish you could learn more, faster, and retain the information
longer? Stimulate your memory receptors and neural pathways with
the Theta frequencies embedded in this program. They'll help you
increase your clarity of mind, profoundly improving your ability
to study, integrate and store new information. Use this tape whenever
you feel the need to absorb new ideas and procedures quickly.
You'll be astounded by the results! Theta frequencies and music
only.
Going deeper into relaxation, you enter the elusive and mysterious
Theta state where brain activity slows almost to the point of
sleep, but not quite. Theta is the brain state where magic happens
in the crucible of your own neurological activity. Theta brings
forward heightened receptivity, flashes of dreamlike imagery,
inspiration, and your long-forgotten memories. Theta can bring
you deep states of meditation. A sensation of "floating." And,
because it is an expansive state, in Theta, you may feel your
mind expand beyond the boundaries of your body. |
