A Testimonial for Carmen
Let’s start at the end-
Every therapy/coaching method you know or have tried won’t bring you the success you are looking for like PRT-Pattern Recognition Therapy by Carmen Olivier Gryn.
When you discover the power you have over your mind you realize you hold your life in your own two hands and can do with it as you please.
Go for it and Big Time! Try! Without expectations, cynicism, or preconceived notions. One day something great simply happens.
And now if you would like to read my story here it is-
Psychologists, psychiatrists, Naturopaths, coachers – I have been to them all.
7 years looking for answers. Does anything change? No.
I walked thousands of miles in my thoughts, but in reality, nothing happened. Everything is the same and I’m tired of wasting money to sit and talk once a week.
So I invented a great methodology of my own – hedonistic escapism. The used the money I was spending on therapy to escape as much as possible, travel abroad and lots of spoiling myself at home.
Build up my energy reserves and hold on to it for a few days and if I’m lucky a few weeks and then repeat. I came to terms with the reality that nothing of substance could ever change. I didn’t believe I deserved that it would change. I did not know it was possible. I submissively accepted that I was screwed up, this is what is, I will live with it each day and want to die each night. If this is life…we’ll live.
Then I met Carmen and she had some very strange ideas for me-
-
This isn’t actually life. Everything I think is actually just thoughts. A hallucination of reality. It is not actually reality.
-
I can actually create the reality I want and live a full and good life and achieve all the things I want and dream of with the help of pattern recognition and changing the way I perceive things.
-
The mind does not have to control us, we can actually control it and adjust it.
-
Thought creates reality; you think negatively your reality is negative, you think positively and your reality will be positive.
-
The power of magnetization – We operate in magnet fields, magnetizing to us what we want. Mistrust in ourselves and negative thoughts help magnetize to us what we do not want. What we want exists in the world we just have to magnetize it to us.
-
Escapism keeps our heads above water, pattern recognition and changing our perceptions take the whole body out of the water.
-
I am a fish in an aquarium that is all I know about the world. I have no idea that there is a whole ocean out there. It’s about time to swim in the ocean.
-
Treat life as a game. Till today, you have played the game the same way and you are not satisfied with the results. Maybe try playing the game with different tools, just try something completely different that you don’t know.
-
Rather than dig into the past, let's focus on the present.
Wow, what a weird woman, what does she want from me? Just sitting there smiling radiantly and truly happy, she really lives in a movie and I told her that. So she said “and if I live in a movie, isn’t it better to live in a good movie than a depressing one”.
Ouch.
But what is the chance of changing issues as fundamental as dissatisfaction, issues with finding the one, a lackluster desire to live, and existential boredom. So many problematic issues that I have in my life some of which are so fundamental to my life. Why not simply accept it and move on?
After all, it is all the fault of my genetics/my fate/my parents (Choose correct answer).
You know what? I decided to try and play the game her way. I asked for practical tools.
What to do? You start training the mind. Every day, all day.
I opened a notebook, I made lists, read them to myself dozens of times, I was sure I had gone off the rails but what’s new. I trained my mind to think and perceive differently. Maybe it will work. I started to pay attention to each word that I said or thought (and I talk a lot and think even more).
I started to perceive things around me differently, the smallest things and believe me it was hard at first. But after years of depression and suffering, I decided I was willing to do what was necessary to feel and be better. Then I realized that I was changing the balance of energy in my brain.
My thought patterns that over the years kept telling me, “you can’t” all of a sudden understands that something is happening and it starts screaming loudly. I discovered what it feels like to manage my thoughts and not my thought manage me. If I do not refer to the beast than it disappears. Initially for a few hours, then you all of a sudden wake up in the morning and everything is great and surprise surprise a week has passed and I am not in an existential depression.
One day I was walking down the street with a friend and I told him, “it feels like a weight of ten tons has been lifted from my brain and my thought is fresh and clear, I don’t see black all day as I used to, there are other colors. There was even a moment that I thought a dream was about to come true and guess what, it was scary.
Scary to realize that I am actually changing what is going on in my mind, and through that what is happening in my life.
Three years later, I am a living breathing example of the success of the methodology. Everyone who knows me has noticed the extraordinary change and asks me how I did it, then I give them some food for thought,
I teach them a “trick” or two and show them the benefits that changing their thought and perception patterns could have for them.
You do not need three years, I have friends who understood and implemented the method much quicker.
I am just stubborn and it takes me time to relinquish the suffering and choose the positive side of life. I share my experiences with whomever I can because I believe I have understood a big secret that is hidden from most and that is – humanity is depressed. Everyone is on pills and we truly believe that is normal. People are only happy when they are on a beach somewhere far away from their regular lives but in our day to day lives, there is no room for happiness. As Carmen likes to say, “it is not a big deal to be a monk on a mountain, it is a big deal to be a monk in the city”.
Testimonials like this are usually done anonymously but I think we need to share all the way.
My name is Doron Medali, I am one of the most prolific and successful song writers in Israel. In the last three years all my biggest dreams have come true (a song in the Eurovision song contest), I have made a lot of money (I never considered that I would be compensated for my knowledge and experience), I am truly happy, I truly feel good, and as for a relationship? Well, that will come when I decide.
The biggest dream that I have come true is also the one I never knew was possible – understanding the difference between negative thinking creates a negative reality and positive thinking creates a positive reality. I have been on both sides of this equation, I am tired of suffering I have chosen the side of good, I have chosen to develop and move forward because you only live once.
You owe it to yourself.
If you want to take a positive step in any part of your life, this is the method that will teach you how.
The work is day to day and it lasts a lifetime and it is most definitely worth it.
I wish you a good and happy life. I am already there, you are all welcome to join me.
